1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements represent the consolidation of Pyxus International, Inc. (the "Company," "Pyxus," "we," "us," or "our") and all companies that Pyxus directly or indirectly controls, either through majority ownership or otherwise. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows have been included.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 filed on June 10, 2025. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for a fiscal quarter are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be attained for other quarters or a full fiscal year.
2. New Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU amends FASB Topic 280 to permit the disclosure of multiple measures of a segment's profit or loss, and requires an entity with a single reportable segment to apply FASB Topic 280 in its entirety. In addition, this ASU requires the following new segment disclosures:
•Significant segment expenses by reportable segment if regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") and included within the reported measure of segment profit or loss;
•Other segment items, which represents the difference between reported segment revenues less the significant segment expenses less reported segment profit or loss; and
•Title and position of the CODM.
Disclosures required under this new ASU and the existing segment profit or loss and assets disclosures currently required annually by FASB Topic 280 are to be disclosed in interim periods. The Company adopted the annual period disclosure requirements for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. The interim period disclosure requirements were adopted on April 1, 2025, and are included in "Note 19. Segment Information". The adoption of this new accounting standard resulted in additional disclosures for segment reporting, and did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to provide more disaggregation of income tax information mainly related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and the income taxes paid disclosure requirements. Under the new accounting rules, the tabular effective tax rate reconciliation must include specific categories with certain reconciling items based on the expected tax further disaggregated by nature and/or jurisdiction. Income taxes paid, net of refunds received, must be broken out by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and further disaggregated by individual jurisdictions based on total income taxes paid. These new annual disclosure requirements are effective for the Company's fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. Early adoption is permitted. This new standard will result in additional disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements, and is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires a tabular disclosure of relevant expense captions into prescribed natural expense categories. The annual disclosure requirements are effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2028, and the interim period disclosure requirements are effective beginning April 1, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. This new standard will result in additional disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements, and is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, to include a practical expedient related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This new practical expedient allows an entity to assume current economic conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the life of the asset, thereby eliminating the need for an
entity to develop and consider reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. This amendment is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning April 1, 2026, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, changing the existing model used to determine when cost capitalization is to occur based on various project stages of software development with a more modern approach that introduces a probable-to-complete recognition threshold. The scope of this new guidance also includes the costs an entity incurs to implement a cloud computing arrangement as a customer. This amendment is effective for the Company's annual and interim periods beginning April 1, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new accounting standard will have on its financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
3. Revenue Recognition
Product revenue is primarily processed tobacco sold to the customer. Processing and other revenues are mainly contracts to process customer-owned green tobacco. During such processing, ownership remains with the customers. All Other revenue is primarily composed of revenue from the sale of non-tobacco agriculture products. The following disaggregates sales and other operating revenues by major source, with the All Other category being included for purposes of reconciliation of the respective balances below of the Leaf segment (the Company's sole reportable segment) to the condensed consolidated financial statements:

4. Income Taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025 was calculated by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date pre-tax income or loss and adjusting for discrete items that occurred during the period. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended September 30, 2024 was calculated using the discrete method, as allowed under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740-270, Income Taxes - Interim Reporting. The discrete method used in the prior year calculates income tax expense as if the six-month interim period was an annual period.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 117.0% and 192.2%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the difference between the Company's effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% is primarily due to tax expense related to foreign currency gains, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and non-deductible interest expense.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2025 was not meaningful due to near break-even income before income taxes for the period. The effective tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2024 was 111.6%. For the six months ended September 30, 2025, tax expense is impacted by foreign currency gains, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and non-deductible interest expense.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 ("OBBBA"). This legislation includes several changes to U.S. federal income tax law, including the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and changes to the international tax framework. The Company has included the effects of the OBBBA in its current-period provision for income taxes and determined it did not have a material impact on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.

| | | | |

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, 96 shares and 82 shares, respectively, related to outstanding restricted stock units have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be antidilutive. |

Based on a Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC on March 25, 2024, by Monarch Alternative Capital LP (the "Monarch Investor"), MDRA GP LP and Monarch GP LLC, the Monarch Investor reported beneficial ownership of 6,125 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 24.9% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. An individual designated by the Monarch Investor serves as a director of Pyxus.
On March 21, 2024, Pyxus Holdings entered into an agreement (the "Debt Repurchase Agreement") with funds affiliated with the Monarch Investor to purchase $77,922 of aggregate principal amount of their holdings in the 2027 Notes for $60,000, a 23.0% discount to par value, plus accrued and unpaid interest and specified customary fees.

See "Note 18. Related Party Transactions" for additional information.
Other Outstanding Debt
Foreign Seasonal Lines of Credit
Excluding long-term credit agreements, the Company typically finances its non-U.S. operations with committed and uncommitted short-term seasonal lines of credit arrangements with a number of banks. These operating lines are generally seasonal in nature, typically extending for a term of 180 days to 365 days corresponding to the tobacco crop cycle in that location. For uncommitted facilities, the lenders have the right to cease making loans and demand repayment of loans at any time or at specified dates. These loans are generally renewed at the outset of each tobacco season. Certain of the seasonal lines of credit are secured by trade receivables and inventories as collateral and are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. At September 30, 2025, the Company was permitted to borrow under foreign seasonal lines of credit up to a total $1,067,446, subject to limitations under the ABL Credit Agreement and the agreements governing the Intabex Term Loans, the Pyxus Term Loans, and the 2027 Notes. As of September 30, 2025, the total borrowing capacity under individual foreign seasonal lines of credit range up to $170,000. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate amount available for borrowing under the seasonal lines of credit was $162,812. At September 30, 2025, the Company, and its subsidiaries, were in compliance with the covenants associated with its short-term seasonal lines of credit.
12. Securitized Receivables
The Company sells trade receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under various accounts receivable securitization facilities, two of which are subject to annual renewal.
Under the first facility with Finacity Corporation (the "Finacity Facility"), the Company continuously sells a designated pool of trade receivables to a special purpose entity, which sells 100% of the receivables to an unaffiliated financial institution. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the special purpose entity, the receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and effective control of the receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which has all rights, including the right to pledge or sell the receivables. This facility requires a minimum level of deferred purchase price be retained by the Company in connection with the sales of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution. The Company continues to service, administer, and collect the receivables on behalf of the special purpose entity and receives a servicing fee of 0.5% of serviced receivables per annum. The Company estimates the expected fee it receives in return for its obligation to service these receivables reflects fair value, and accordingly, no servicing assets or liabilities are recognized. Servicing fees are recorded as a reduction of selling, general, and administrative expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2025, the investment limit of this facility was $120,000 of trade receivables.
Under the second facility, the Company offers trade receivables for sale to an unaffiliated financial institution, which are then subject to acceptance by the unaffiliated financial institution. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution, the receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and effective control of the receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which has all rights, including the right to pledge or sell the receivables. Although the Company continues to service, administer, and collect the receivables on behalf of the unaffiliated financial institution, the Company does not receive a servicing fee, and as a result, has established a servicing liability based upon unobservable inputs, primarily discounted cash flow. As of September 30, 2025, the investment limit under the second facility was $160,000 of trade receivables.
As servicer for the Finacity Facility and the second facility, the Company may receive funds that are due to the unaffiliated financial institutions which are net settled on the next settlement date. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and March 31, 2025, trade receivables, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets has been reduced by $4,742, $11,093, and $2,190 as a result of the net settlement, respectively. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets includes $5,463 and $1,735 of net payables for the Finacity Facility. See "Note 15. Fair Value Measurements" for additional information.
Under the other facilities, the Company offers trade receivables for sale to unaffiliated financial institutions, which are then subject to acceptance by the unaffiliated financial institutions. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution, the receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and effective control of the receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which has all rights, including the right to pledge or sell the
receivables. As of September 30, 2025, the investment limits under these other facilities were variable based on qualifying sales.
The following summarizes the Company's accounts receivable outstanding in the securitization facilities, which represents trade receivables sold into the program that have not been collected from the customer, and related beneficial interests, which represents the Company's residual interest in receivables sold that have not been collected from the customer:

| Beneficial interests | 4,742 | | 11,093 | | 29,354 | |

14. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk related to our international operations. Principal currencies hedged include the Brazilian real and the Malawian kwacha. The Company uses forward or option currency contracts to manage risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These derivative contracts are either designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions for the purchase of green tobacco, other processing-related costs, and selling, general, and administrative expenses, or are not designated as hedging instruments because they are used to partially offset the immediate earnings impact of exchange rate risk on certain foreign currency denominated transactions.
As of September 30, 2025, there were no outstanding derivative financial instruments. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2025, the Company's derivative financial instruments outstanding were designated as cash flow hedges. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded in other current assets and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, respectively, within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See "Note 15. Fair Value Measurements" for the fair values of the Company's outstanding derivative assets and liabilities and corresponding fair value classifications.

16. Contingencies and Other Information
Brazilian Tax Credits
The government in the Brazilian State of Parana ("Parana") issued a tax assessment on October 26, 2007 with respect to local intrastate trade tax credits that result primarily from tobacco transferred between states within Brazil. At September 30, 2025, the assessment for intrastate trade tax credits taken is $2,482 and the total assessment including penalties and interest is $10,820. The Company believes it has properly complied with Brazilian law and will contest any assessment through the judicial process. Should the Company lose in the judicial process, the loss of the intrastate trade tax credits would have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.
Other Matters
In addition to the above-mentioned matters, the Company or certain of its subsidiaries are involved in other litigation or legal matters incidental to their business activities, including tax matters. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, they are being vigorously defended and the Company does not currently expect that any of them will have a material adverse effect on its business or financial position. However, should one or more of these matters be resolved in a manner adverse to its current expectation, the effect on the Company’s results of operations for a particular fiscal reporting period could be material.
17. Equity-Based Compensation
Pursuant to the Pyxus International, Inc. Amended and Restated 2020 Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan"), a total of 3,612 shares (which amounts are presented in thousands) have been authorized for grants of equity-based awards to certain employees and non-employee directors.
Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock units granted under the Incentive Plan are earned ratably for certain employees, subject to their continued employment, from the date of the award to March 31, 2027, and for certain non-employee directors, subject to continued board service, from the date of the award to the Company's next annual meeting of shareholders. Restricted stock units vest upon the earlier of March 31, 2031 or the occurrence of a change-in-control event or a liquidity event as such terms are defined under the restricted stock unit award agreement. The following summarizes activity for restricted stock units:
| | | | | | | | |
| (in thousands, except grant date fair value) | Restricted Stock Units | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share |
| Nonvested, March 31, 2025 | 1,724 | | $ | 3.46 | |
| Granted | 30 | | 5.10 | |
| | |
| Canceled or forfeited | (23) | | 3.50 | |
| Nonvested, September 30, 2025 | 1,731 | | $ | 3.49 | |
|
The following summarizes equity-based compensation expense for restricted stock units, which is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of operations:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended |
| September 30, | September 30, |
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 |
| Equity-based compensation expense | $ | 256 | | $ | 601 | | $ | 493 | | $ | 3,632 | |
The amount recorded during the six months ended September 30, 2024 included the impact of a cumulative catch-up adjustment due to the modification on May 10, 2024 of awards then outstanding under the Incentive Plan.
Unrecognized compensation cost for restricted stock units is $1,430 as of September 30, 2025, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.52 years, representing the weighted average remaining service period related to the awards, subject to adjustments for actual forfeitures.
Performance-Based Stock Units
Under the terms of the performance-based stock units, the amount of shares to be issued to certain employees (ranging from 0% to 200% of the number of shares to be issued at the target performance level) will be contingent upon the per share price achieved in a liquidity event (as defined under the terms of the performance-based stock unit award agreement), subject to continued employment through the date of a liquidity event. The contingent liquidity event is not probable as of September 30,
2025, and accordingly, no equity-based compensation expense has been recognized for performance-based stock units. The following summarizes activity for performance-based stock units (at the target performance level):
| | | | | | | | |
| (in thousands, except grant date fair value) | Performance-Based Stock Units | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share |
| Nonvested, March 31, 2025 | 553 | | $ | 4.36 | |

Transactions with Significant Shareholders
Based on a Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC on June 13, 2024 by Glendon Capital Management, L.P. (the "Glendon Investor"), Holly Kim Olsen, Glendon Opportunities Fund, L.P. and Glendon Opportunities Fund II, L.P., the Glendon Investor reported beneficial ownership of 8,315 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 33.8% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. A representative of the Glendon Investor serves as a director of Pyxus. Based on a Schedule 13G/A filed with the SEC on September 3, 2024 by Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P. and Jeffrey A. Altman, Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P. is the investment manager of certain funds and reported beneficial ownership of 3,865 shares of the Company’s common stock on August 31, 2024, representing approximately 15.7% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. Funds managed by the Glendon Investor, funds managed by the Monarch Investor, and funds managed by Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P., (such funds are collectively referred to as the "Investor-Affiliated Funds") were holders, in part, of the Intabex Term Loans, the Pyxus Term Loans and the 2027 Notes, which are described in "Note 11. Debt Arrangements," during the six months ended September 30, 2025.
On August 21, 2024, the Company entered into a privately negotiated transaction with CI Investments, Inc. ("CI Investments"), which at that time was a beneficial owner of greater than five percent of the Company's common stock outstanding, to repurchase 392 (which amount is presented in thousands) shares of its common stock for approximately $1,000, inclusive of broker commission fees, which transaction was completed on August 22, 2024. This transaction was approved, and determined to be on terms and conditions at least as favorable to the Company and its subsidiaries as could reasonably have been obtained in a comparable arm's-length transaction with an unaffiliated party, by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Pyxus. Following the completion of this transaction and other contemporaneous dispositions of the Company’s common stock by CI Investments, CI Investments ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Company's common stock outstanding.
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities as presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and March 31, 2025, includes $1,403, $1,624, and $1,600, respectively, of interest payable to Investor-Affiliated Funds and CI Investments (applicable only for the periods in which CI Investments was a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Company's common stock outstanding). Interest expense as presented in the condensed consolidated
statements of operations includes $5,510 and $10,976 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $5,945 and $13,206 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, that relates to the Investor-Affiliated Funds and CI Investments (applicable only for the periods in which CI Investments was a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Company's common stock outstanding).
The holders of senior debt that are parties to the Debt Repurchase Agreement entered into on March 21, 2024 are funds affiliated with the Monarch Investor and of which the Monarch Investor is the investment advisor. The Debt Repurchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the exercise by Pyxus Holdings of its right to purchase the Pyxus Term Loans and additional 2027 Notes thereunder on April 12, 2024, were approved, and determined to be on terms and conditions at least as favorable to the Company and its subsidiaries as could reasonably have been obtained in a comparable arm's length transaction with an unaffiliated party, by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Pyxus. Under the terms of the Debt Repurchase Agreement, the Company has paid the following amounts to funds affiliated with the Monarch Investor:
•On March 28, 2024, the Company paid a total of $62,339, which included $1,849 of accrued and unpaid interest and $490 in other fees, to retire $77,922 of aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes.
•On May 31, 2024, the Company paid a total of $9,435, which included $332 of accrued and unpaid interest, to retire $10,345 of aggregate principal amount of the Pyxus Term Loans.
•On August 2, 2024, the Company paid a total of $26,707, which included $379 of accrued and unpaid interest, to retire $34,191 of aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes.
Upon completion of the transactions under the Debt Repurchase Agreement, the Monarch Investor is no longer a holder of the 2027 Notes and the Pyxus Term Loans. The Monarch Investor remains a related party as a holder of a portion of the Intabex Term Loans and a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Company's common stock outstanding.

Forward-Looking Statements
Readers are cautioned that the statements contained in this report regarding expectations of our performance or other matters that may affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition are "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which are based on current expectations of future events, may be identified by the use of words such as "guidance", "strategy," "expects," "continues," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "will," "estimates," "intends," "projects," "goals," "targets," and other words of similar meaning. These statements also may be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, or if known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. These risks and uncertainties include those discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2025, and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks and uncertainties include: our reliance on a small number of significant customers; continued vertical integration by our customers; global shifts in sourcing customer requirements, the imposition of tariffs and other changes in international trade policies; shifts in the global supply and demand position for tobacco products; variation in our financial results due to growing conditions, customer indications and other factors; loss of confidence in us by our customers, farmers and other suppliers; migration of suppliers who have historically grown tobacco and from whom we have purchased tobacco toward growing other crops; risks related to our advancement of inputs to tobacco suppliers to be settled upon the suppliers delivering us unprocessed tobacco at the end of the growing season; risks that the tobacco we purchase directly from suppliers will not meet our customers’ quality and quantity requirements; weather and other environmental conditions that can affect the quantity and marketability of our inventory; international business risks, including unsettled political conditions, uncertainty in the enforcement of legal obligations, including the collection of accounts receivable, fraud risks, expropriation, import and export restrictions, exchange controls, inflationary economies, currency risks and risks related to the restrictions on repatriation of earnings or proceeds from liquidated assets of foreign subsidiaries; many of our operations are located in jurisdictions that pose a high risk of potential violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; risks and uncertainties related to geopolitical conflicts, including the conflicts in the Middle East and disruptions affecting shipping in that area; impacts of international sanctions on our ability to sell or source tobacco in certain regions; exposure to foreign tax regimes in which the rules are not clear, are not consistently applied and are subject to sudden change; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates; competition with the other primary global independent leaf tobacco merchant and independent leaf merchants; disruption, failure or security breaches of our information technology systems and other cybersecurity risks; continued high inflation; regulations regarding environmental matters; risks related to our capital structure, including risks related to our significant debt and our ability to continue to finance our non-U.S. local operations with uncommitted short-term operating credit lines at the local level; our ability to continue to access capital markets to obtain long-term and short-term financing; potential failure of foreign banks in which our subsidiaries maintain deposits or the failure by such banks to transfer funds or honor withdrawals; the risk that, because our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control, we may be unable to generate the significant amount of cash required to service our indebtedness; our ability to refinance our current credit facilities at the same availability or at similar or reduced interest rates; failure to achieve our stated goals, which may adversely affect our liquidity; developments with respect to our liquidity needs and sources of liquidity; the volatility and disruption of global credit markets; failure by counterparties to derivative transactions to perform their obligations; increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from governments, as well as other stakeholders such as investors and customers, with respect to our environmental, social and governance policies, including sustainability policies; inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if our products are alleged to have caused significant loss, injury, or death; certain shareholders have the ability to exercise controlling influence on various corporate matters; reductions in demand for consumer tobacco products; risks and uncertainties related to pandemics or other widespread health crises and any related shipping constraints, labor shortages and supply-chain impacts; legislative and regulatory initiatives that may reduce consumption of consumer tobacco products and demand for our services and increase regulatory burdens on us or our customers; government actions that significantly affect the sourcing of tobacco, including governmental actions to identify and assess crop diversification initiatives and alternatives to leaf tobacco growing in countries whose economies depend upon tobacco production; governmental investigations into the Company's business activities, including but not limited to, leaf tobacco industry buying and other payment practices; and impact of proposed regulations to prohibit the sale of cigarettes and certain other tobacco products in the United States other than low-nicotine versions of those products.
We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that we may make from time to time except to the extent required by law.
Overview
Pyxus is a global agricultural company with businesses having more than 150 years of experience delivering value-added products and services to businesses and customers. The Company is a trusted provider of responsibly sourced, independently verified, sustainable, and traceable products and ingredients.
Executive Summary
The Company's second quarter results and financial condition reflect the impact of larger crops from our origins in the Southern hemisphere. Sales and other operating revenues of $570.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were slightly higher by 0.7%, or $3.9 million, when compared to $566.3 million for the same period last year. This slight increase was a result of higher volumes, bolstered by processing and other revenues, and partially offset by lower average sales prices corresponding with lower costs incurred to purchase current crops. The Company's gross margin as a percent of sales increased by 2.1% in the current quarter, mainly due to regional mix.
The Company's year-to-date results include acceleration of shipments related to the larger current crop that have yet to offset the continued impact of lower carry-over sales from the prior fiscal year, which contributed to the 10.2%, or $122.2 million, decline in sales to $1,079.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025 from $1,201.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024. Despite this reduction in sales and other operating revenues, the Company's year-to-date gross margin as a percent of sales of 14.2% remained relatively stable versus the comparable prior-year period mainly due to product mix.
During the first half of each fiscal year, our working capital requirements typically reach peak levels, coinciding with the buying season in each of our key sourcing regions. First half fiscal year 2026 procurement volumes in Africa and South America exceeded those of the comparable prior-year period, with purchases substantially completed early in the second quarter. Purchasing in the Northern hemisphere commenced during the second quarter, with volumes in North America and Europe comparable to or slightly below prior-year levels. Our total tobacco inventory balance, comprised of both processed and unprocessed tobacco, stands at $1,102.8 million as of September 30, 2025, which will enable us to meet our customers' requirements for leaf that we have sourced from our wide network of growers across the globe.

Sales and other operating revenues increased $3.9 million, or 0.7%, to $570.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $566.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This slight increase was a result of an increase in processing and other revenues emanating from the larger volumes in Africa and South America, partially offset by a decrease in leaf product revenues as a result of higher volumes sold at a lower average price per kilo.
Cost of goods and services sold decreased $8.5 million, or 1.7%, to $482.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $490.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 driven by a 7.9% reduction in average cost per kilo due to the impact of lower inventory costs of the current crop in Africa and South America that has been processed and sold.
Gross profit increased $12.4 million, or 16.4%, to $87.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $75.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was due to larger volumes for processing and other revenues in Africa providing more margin favorability, and increased margins from certain leaf product sales in Africa and Europe.
The gain on debt retirement of $6.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was due to the repurchase of $34.2 million aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes for $26.3 million, a 23.0% discount to par. There were no repurchases of senior secured notes or term loans during the three months ended September 30, 2025. See "Note 11. Debt Arrangements" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.
Income tax expense increased $2.2 million, or 27.2%, to $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to tax expense related to foreign currency gains in Africa recognized in the current period and the jurisdictional mix of earnings. See "Note 4. Income Taxes" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.

Sales and other operating revenues decreased $122.2 million, or 10.2%, to $1,079.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025 from $1,201.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, due largely to the 12.9% decline in kilo volumes sold as a result of the timing of certain customer shipments. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, certain customer orders were accelerated from Africa and North America, which contributed to the decline in sales and other operating revenues for the current year-to-date period.
Cost of goods and services sold decreased $116.3 million, or 11.2%, to $925.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025 from $1,041.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease was mainly due to the reduction in sales and other operating revenues.
Gross profit decreased $5.9 million, or 3.7%, to $153.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025 from $159.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, due to the timing of certain sales, but slightly improved as a percent of sales mainly due to product mix.
The gain on debt retirement of $8.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024 was due to the repurchase of $10.3 million of aggregate principal amount of the Pyxus Term Loans for $9.4 million, a 12.0% discount to par, and the repurchase of $34.2 million aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes for $26.3 million, a 23.0% discount to par. There were no repurchases of senior secured notes or term loans during the six months ended September 30, 2025. See "Note 11. Debt Arrangements" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.
Income tax expense increased $1.3 million, or 9.2%, to $15.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025 from $14.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was due to tax expense related to foreign currency gains recognized in the current period and an increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. See "Note 4. Income Taxes" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations, short-term borrowings under our foreign seasonal lines of credit, availability under our ABL Credit Facility, and cash collections from our securitized receivables. Our liquidity requirements are affected by various factors from our tobacco leaf business, including crop seasonality, foreign currency and interest rates, green tobacco prices, customer mix, crop size, and quality. Our leaf tobacco business is seasonal, and purchasing, processing, and selling activities have several associated peaks where cash on-hand and outstanding indebtedness may vary significantly compared to year end. The first two quarters of our fiscal year generally represent the peak of our working capital requirements.
Although we believe that our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating needs for the next twelve months, we anticipate periods during which our liquidity needs for operations will approach the levels of our anticipated available cash and permitted borrowings under our credit facilities. Unanticipated developments affecting our liquidity needs, including with respect to the foregoing factors, and sources of liquidity, including impacts affecting our cash flows from operations and the availability of capital resources (including an inability to renew or refinance seasonal lines of credit), may result in a deficiency in liquidity. To address a potential liquidity deficiency, we may undertake plans to minimize cash outflows, which could include exiting operations that do not generate positive cash flow. It is possible that, depending on the occurrence of events affecting our liquidity needs and sources of liquidity, such plans may not be sufficient to adequately or timely address a liquidity deficiency.
Debt Financing
We continue to finance our business with a combination of short-term and long-term credit lines, the long-term debt securities, advances from customers, and cash from operations when available. See "Note 11. Debt Arrangements" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for a summary of our short-term and long-term debt.
We continuously monitor and, as available, adjust funding sources as needed to enhance and drive various business opportunities. From time to time we may take steps to reduce our debt or otherwise improve our financial position. Such actions could include prepayments, open market debt repurchases, negotiated repurchases, other redemptions or retirements of outstanding debt, and refinancing of debt. The amount of prepayments or the amount of debt that may be repurchased, refinanced, or otherwise retired, if any, will depend on market conditions, trading levels of our debt, our cash position, compliance with debt covenants, and other considerations.
The following summarizes our total borrowing capacity at September 30, 2025 and 2024 under our short-term and long-term credit lines and letter of credit facilities and the remaining available amount after the reduction for outstanding borrowings and amounts reserved for outstanding letters of credit:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| September 30, 2025 | September 30, 2024 |
| (in millions) | Total Borrowing Capacity | Remaining Amount Available | Total Borrowing Capacity | Remaining Amount Available |
| Senior Secured Credit Facilities: | | | | |
| ABL Credit Facility | $ | 150.0 | | $ | 150.0 | | $ | 120.0 | | $ | 85.0 | |
| Foreign seasonal lines of credit | 1,067.4 | | 162.8 | | 885.2 | | 175.4 | |
| Other long-term debt | — | | — | | 0.4 | | 0.3 | |
| Letters of credit | 12.3 | | 3.3 | | 10.8 | | 3.0 | |
| Total | $ | 1,229.7 | | $ | 316.1 | | $ | 1,016.4 | | $ | 263.7 | |
The total borrowing capacity under the ABL Credit Facility increased $30.0 million when compared to the prior period as a result of the Fourth Amendment to the ABL Credit Agreement entered into on May 12, 2025, which among other things, increased the aggregate amount of revolving loan commitments from $120.0 million to $150.0 million. The amounts presented as available under the ABL Credit Facility are subject to further limitations from the borrowing base consisting of certain eligible accounts receivable and inventory, reduced by specified reserves.
The total borrowing capacity of our foreign seasonal lines of credit increased $182.2 million when compared to the prior year and were primarily utilized to purchase larger volumes of green tobacco. The amounts presented as the remaining amount available for borrowing under the foreign seasonal lines of credit are subject to limitations based on the level of receivables and inventories as collateral and by certain restrictive covenants.
Net Debt
We refer to "Net debt," a non-GAAP measure, as total debt liabilities less cash and cash equivalents. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to monitor leverage and to evaluate changes to the Company's capital structure. A limitation associated with using net debt is that it subtracts cash and cash equivalents, and therefore, may imply that management intends to use cash and cash equivalents to reduce outstanding debt and that cash held in certain jurisdictions can be applied to repay obligations owing in other jurisdictions and without reduction for applicable taxes. In addition, net debt suggests that our debt obligations are less than the most comparable GAAP measure indicates. The following summarizes the computation of net debt:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | September 30, 2025 | September 30, 2024 | March 31, 2025 |
| Notes payable | $ | 908.0 | | $ | 744.8 | | $ | 395.0 | |
| Current portion of long-term debt | — | | 0.1 | | — | |
Long-term debt(1) | 455.3 | | 489.5 | | 454.9 | |
| Total debt liabilities* | $ | 1,363.3 | | $ | 1,234.3 | | $ | 849.9 | |
| Less: Cash and cash equivalents | 99.2 | | 123.5 | | 78.3 | |
| Net debt* | $ | 1,264.1 | | $ | 1,110.9 | | $ | 771.6 | |
| | |
|
| * Amounts may not equal column totals due to rounding | | |
(1) Fluctuations in long-term debt include borrowings and repayments on the outstanding indebtedness under the ABL Credit Facility. Weighted average borrowings outstanding under the ABL Credit Facility were $35.1 million and $46.3 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. |
|
Net debt increased as of September 30, 2025 when compared to September 30, 2024 due to higher borrowings on our foreign seasonal lines of credit, partially offset by lower borrowings on the ABL Credit Facility.
Working Capital
The following summarizes our working capital:

Working capital declined from September 30, 2024 to September 30, 2025 by $16.0 million, or 4.1%. Lower working capital was a result of the increase in borrowings on our foreign seasonal lines of credit used to fund the purchases of larger volumes of green tobacco, particularly in Africa and South America, partially offset by decreases in cash and receivables as a result of timing that softened the impact of the growth in inventory.
Inventories
The following summarizes inventory committed to a customer and uncommitted inventory balances for processed tobacco:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | September 30, 2025 | September 30, 2024 | March 31, 2025 |
| Committed | $ | 691.5 | | $ | 733.9 | | $ | 482.8 | |
| Uncommitted | 19.5 | | 16.7 | | 7.6 | |
| Total processed tobacco | $ | 711.0 | | $ | 750.6 | | $ | 490.4 | |
Total processed tobacco decreased from September 30, 2024 to September 30, 2025 by $39.6 million, or 5.3%. This decrease is primarily driven by timing of shipments made in the current quarter from certain African origins. Uncommitted levels of processed tobacco remain low due to steady demand from our customers. While undersupply conditions have persisted in the global tobacco market in recent periods, more favorable weather conditions have resulted in larger crops harvested, particularly in Africa and South America, which is anticipated to provide a more balanced position through the remainder of the fiscal year. See "Note 7. Inventories, Net" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.
Sources and Uses of Cash
We typically finance our non-U.S. tobacco operations with committed and uncommitted short-term foreign seasonal lines of credit, normally extending for a term of 180 to 365 days, corresponding to the tobacco crop cycle in that market. For uncommitted facilities, the lenders have the right to cease making loans and demand repayment of loans. These short-term seasonal lines of credit are generally renewed at the outset of each tobacco season. We maintain various other financing arrangements to meet the cash requirements of our businesses. See "Note 11. Debt Arrangements" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information.
We utilize capital in excess of cash flow from operations to finance accounts receivable, inventory, and advances to tobacco suppliers in foreign countries. In addition, we may periodically elect to purchase, redeem, repay, retire, or cancel indebtedness prior to stated maturity under our various foreign credit lines.
As of September 30, 2025, our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash was $106.4 million, of which approximately $80.5 million was held in non-U.S. jurisdictions for non-U.S. working capital needs, a majority of which is subject to exchange controls and a portion of which is subject to tax consequences upon repatriation, which could limit our ability to fully repatriate these funds. Fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus many of the currencies in which we have costs may have an impact on our working capital requirements. We will continue to monitor and hedge foreign currency costs, as needed.
The following summarizes the sources and uses of our cash flows:

The change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash for the six months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2024 decreased by $10.2 million. This decrease was driven by the cash used in operations to fund purchases of larger crops, partially offset by higher net proceeds received from foreign seasonal lines of credit and the non-recurrence of partial repayments made on long-term debt in the prior-year period.
Planned Capital Expenditures
Capital investments in our leaf operations were primarily for routine replacement of machinery and equipment, as well as investments in assets to enhance our sustainability efforts or increase efficiencies, which we believe will add value to our customers. We incurred approximately $9.7 million in capital expenditures for the six months ended September 30, 2025, and are expecting to incur an additional $16.4 million for the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to inherent limitations, our disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance (not absolute) that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) were effective to provide reasonable assurance as of September 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
See "Note 16. Contingencies and Other Information" to the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information with respect to legal proceedings, which are incorporated by reference herein.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, investors should carefully consider our risk factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or operating results. Except as set forth below, as of the date of this report, there are no material changes or updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.
Our joint ventures manufacture and supply e-liquid and consumable nicotine-related products, which inherently carry the risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action, and litigation in the event such products are alleged to have caused injury, harm, or death, and the Company and our related joint ventures could be affected by such actions through reputational impact or claims alleging that our supplied materials contributed to the alleged harm.
As a contract manufacturer of, and supplier of inputs for, products that are ingested or otherwise consumed by humans, our joint ventures business faces the risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action, and other litigation (including class proceedings and individual proceedings) if such products are alleged to have caused loss, injury, or death. E-liquids and other consumable nicotine product manufacturers and their suppliers may be subject to these types of claims, including that: (i) the products caused or contributed to injury, illness, or death; (ii) the manufacturer or supplier made false, misleading or impermissible statements regarding the products; (iii) the products lacked adequate labeling and instructions for use; and/or (iv) the products failed to include sufficient warnings concerning potential side effects or interactions with other substances.
Previously unknown adverse reactions resulting from human consumption of these e-liquids and other consumable nicotine products alone or in combination with other medications or substances could also occur. In addition, the manufacture and sale of any ingested or consumable product involves a risk of injury to consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination, and our joint ventures engaged in e-liquids and other consumable nicotine business may in the future
have to recall certain of its manufactured products due to potential quality assurance concerns. Product liability claims or regulatory actions involving e-liquids and other consumable nicotine could increase costs and adversely affect our reputation and relationships with our customers and their consumers. We cannot assure you that product liability insurance held by the Company or our joint ventures can be maintained on acceptable terms or with adequate coverage against potential liabilities. Such insurance is expensive and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage on reasonable terms or to otherwise protect against potential product liability claims could result in the Company or our joint ventures becoming subject to significant liabilities that are uninsured.
The risk of class-based litigation (and individual litigation) for manufacturers and distributors of e-liquids and other consumable nicotine products, and others involved in the consumable nicotine industry, is significant, particularly in the face of increasing health and marketing concerns, the potential for product recalls, or other product-related issues. The U.S. has a highly active plaintiffs’ bar. Recent years have seen several purported class action lawsuits in the U.S. against manufacturers, distributors and suppliers of e-liquid and other consumable nicotine-related products. These circumstances create enhanced risk and exposure for the Company given the nature of its operations, the products it manufactures, distributes, and sells, and its business environment.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Company did not repurchase any of its equity securities during the three months ended September 30, 2025.
On August 15, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $10,000,000 plus fees and expenses of our common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to limitations under the Company's debt agreements (which currently limit the aggregate amount that may be applied to repurchase shares of common stock to $1,000,000). The repurchase by the Company on August 21, 2024 of shares of its common stock for approximately $1,000,000, inclusive of brokerage fees, was applied to this limit. This program expires on August 15, 2027. If current restrictions under applicable debt agreements are modified to permit further repurchases of common stock by the Company, the number, price, structure and timing of any further share repurchases will be at the Company's sole discretion, and any such future repurchases of our common stock are dependent on market conditions, liquidity needs, and certain restrictions under our debt arrangements, among other factors.
No cash dividends on shares of common stock of Pyxus International, Inc. were paid to shareholders during the six months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the payment of such dividends is restricted under the terms of our debt agreements.
Item 5. Other Information
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, none of the Company's directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or adopted or terminated a "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" (as such terms are defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K).
