Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company’s plans, estimates and beliefs. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere particularly in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

GPGI, Inc. ("GPGI," and together with its subsidiaries as the context requires, the "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), through its wholly owned subsidiary, GPGI Holdings L.L.C. ("GPGI Holdings"), is a permanent capital platform designed to acquire, operate, and scale high‑quality businesses across attractive end markets, consistent with its philosophy of building great positions in good industries.

Beginning February 28, 2025, the Company deconsolidated GPGI Holdings as a result of the spin‑off Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. ("Resolute Holdings") (the "Spin-Off") and execution of the CompoSecure Management Agreement, as defined below. From that date, GPGI Holdings is accounted for under the equity method. Unless expressly stated, references to operating results, customers, products, debt and market risks pertain to GPGI Holdings; the Company’s results primarily reflect corporate‑level items (e.g., public company costs, fair‑value changes, taxes) and earnings in equity method investment of GPGI Holdings.

Prior to the Husky Transaction, as defined below, the Company’s business consisted solely of the CompoSecure operations conducted through its wholly owned subsidiary, GPGI Holdings. CompoSecure, founded in 2000, and headquartered in Somerset, New Jersey, is the global leader in the design and manufacturing of premium metal payment cards and secure authentication solutions. The company pioneered the use of metal in payment cards dating back to 2003 and combines industry-leading innovation, advanced materials science, and proprietary manufacturing processes to deliver highly differentiated products to its customers. CompoSecure’s metal payment cards integrate a metal core with EMV® (acronym representing Europay, Mastercard, and Visa) chips, magnetic stripes, and contactless payment technology, while meeting stringent certification requirements from global payment networks. CompoSecure’s metal cards deliver a distinctive weight, a premium aesthetic, and enhanced durability for consumers, while its issuer customers benefit from the ability to attract higher-value consumers, reduce cardholder churn, and unlock higher customer spend relative to traditional plastic cards.

Husky Holdings LLC (together with its subsidiaries, "Husky"), a wholly owned subsidiary of GPGI Holdings, founded in 1953, and headquartered in Bolton, Ontario, is the leading global manufacturer of highly engineered injection molding equipment and aftermarket tooling and services. Husky has focused on developing highly technical precision technologies instrumental in the delivery of food, beverages, medical devices, and other applications including general packaging and closures, thinwall packaging, and consumer products. Husky delivers its integrated capabilities through a combination of systems, tooling, and aftermarket parts and services to create value for customers throughout the entire lifecycle of its solutions.

Husky is not consolidated by the Company and is accounted for as an equity method investment of GPGI Holdings. Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect its indirect interest in Husky through its equity method investment in GPGI Holdings.

Recent Developments

On February 28, 2025, the Company completed the Spin-Off of Resolute Holdings. In connection with the Spin-Off, GPGI Holdings entered into a management agreement (the "CompoSecure Management Agreement"), pursuant to which Resolute Holdings provides management and other related services to GPGI Holdings in exchange for payment of quarterly management fees, payable in arrears, in a cash amount equal to 2.5% of GPGI Holdings' last twelve-months' Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the CompoSecure Management Agreement, measured for the period ending on the fiscal quarter then ended (“CompoSecure Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA”). CompoSecure Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA reflects (a) GPGI Holdings’ earnings before

GPGI, INC.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

($ amounts in millions, except share data)

interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, extraordinary losses and expenses, one-time and non-recurring expenses, and the CompoSecure Management Fee, less (b) GPGI’s selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted for the same items above (“Parent Allocated Expense” as defined in the CompoSecure Management Agreement). CompoSecure Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA is calculated without duplication of Husky Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) and its share of Parent Allocated Expense. GPGI Holdings is also required to reimburse Resolute Holdings and its affiliates for Resolute Holdings’ documented costs and expenses incurred on behalf of GPGI Holdings other than those expenses related to Resolute Holdings' or its affiliates' personnel who provide services to GPGI Holdings under the CompoSecure Management Agreement. Resolute Holdings determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether a cost or expense will be borne by Resolute Holdings or by GPGI Holdings.

Historically, the Company operated and controlled the business and affairs of GPGI Holdings by virtue of its control of the board of managers of GPGI Holdings, and thus the financial results of GPGI Holdings were consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. As of and subsequent to the Spin-Off, and as a result of the execution of the CompoSecure Management Agreement, control of GPGI Holdings transferred to Resolute Holdings and the Company no longer consolidates GPGI Holdings. For periods subsequent to the completion of the Spin-Off, GPGI Holdings is treated as a variable interest entity and the results of operations of GPGI Holdings and its subsidiaries are no longer consolidated in the financial statements of the Company; rather, such results are consolidated in the financial statements of Resolute Holdings, and the Company accounts for the results of GPGI Holdings and its subsidiaries (including the CompoSecure and Husky businesses) using the equity method of accounting, with the Company’s statement of operations reflecting the Company’s share of earnings of GPGI Holdings as earnings from an equity method investment, and the Company’s consolidated balance sheets reflect its carrying value in GPGI Holdings as an equity method investment.

Certain of GPGI Holdings' former equity holders had the right, pursuant to the agreement and plan of merger that governed CompoSecure's initial business combination completed in December 2021, to receive additional shares of Class A common stock ("Earnout Shares") in earnout consideration (collectively, the “Earnouts”). The Earnouts were subject to two stock price thresholds, with half of the Earnout Shares awarded upon the achievement of each threshold. The first Earnout threshold was achieved on December 17, 2024, and approximately 3.8 million Earnout Shares were issued. The second Earnout threshold was achieved on September 8, 2025, and approximately 4.4 million Earnout Shares (as adjusted for the Spin-Off) were issued.

On November 2, 2025, GPGI entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with entities affiliated with Platinum Equity, LLC (“Platinum Equity”) pursuant to which GPGI, through GPGI Holdings, would combine with Husky Technologies Limited for an enterprise value of approximately $4.976 billion, financed with debt, cash, and share of GPGI’s Class A Common Stock (“Husky Transaction”). On the January 12, 2026, the Company completed the business combination ("Husky Transaction Date"). In connection with the completion of the Husky Transaction, Husky entered into a management agreement (the "Husky Management Agreement") with Resolute Holdings, the terms of which are substantially identical to the terms of the CompoSecure Management Agreement. Under the Husky Management Agreement, Resolute Holdings is responsible for managing the day-to-day business and operations, and overseeing the strategy of, Husky Holdings and its subsidiaries, and receives a quarterly management fee equal to 2.5% of the trailing twelve‑month Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the Husky Management Agreement of the Husky business ("Husky Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA"), without duplication of any amounts payable under the CompoSecure Management Agreement. Consistent with the CompoSecure Management Agreement, the Husky Management Agreement includes an initial 10‑year term with automatic 10‑year renewal periods, reflecting the long‑term operating partnership established at closing.

Subsequent to the completion of the Husky Transaction, CompoSecure, Inc. rebranded to GPGI, Inc., and CompoSecure Holdings, L.L.C. rebranded to GPGI Holdings, L.L.C. Beginning January 23, 2026, the Company’s Class A Common Stock continued trading on the New York Stock Exchange, under the new ticker symbol “GPGI.” 

On January 14, 2026, following completion of the Husky Transaction, GPGI Holdings refinanced approximately $2.1 billion of total indebtedness that was assumed in the Husky Transaction. The refinancing included the issuance of $900 million of 5.625% senior secured notes due 2033, and the establishment of a new $1.2 billion term loan facility maturing in 2033, and $400 million of revolving credit commitments maturing in 2031. The proceeds from these new debt instruments were used to refinance Husky’s existing indebtedness and to pay related

fees, costs, premiums, and expenses incurred in connection with the recapitalization of the combined company’s capital structure.

Economic Conditions

Economic tensions and changes in international trade policies, including new tariffs introduced by the U.S. last year, as well as ongoing geopolitical instability in certain regions, including the Middle East, have in the past impacted and could in the future impact the market for our products and services. In particular, a portion of the raw materials used by us to manufacture our products are obtained, directly or indirectly, from companies located outside of the United States, and disruptions arising from geopolitical conflicts or heightened tensions in the Middle East have in the past and could in the future further affect global supply chains, transportation routes, or input costs. Additionally, a significant downturn in the domestic or global economy has in the past and may in the future cause our existing customers to pause or delay orders and prospective customers to defer new projects. Together, these circumstances create an environment in which it is challenging for us to predict future operating results. If these uncertain business, macroeconomic, trade, or political conditi

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

GPGI, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Holdings, is a platform designed to acquire, operate, and scale high‑quality businesses across attractive end markets, consistent with its philosophy of building great positions in good industries.

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Beginning February 28, 2025, the Company deconsolidated Holdings as a result of the Spin‑Off and the related CompoSecure Management Agreement. From that date, Holdings is accounted for under the equity method. Unless expressly stated, references to operating results, customers, products, debt and market risks pertain to Holdings; the Company’s results primarily reflect corporate‑level items (e.g., public company costs, fair‑value changes, taxes) and equity in earnings of Holdings. The discussion below does not reflect the results of operations of Husky, as the Husky Transaction was completed after the completion of the Company’s 2025 fiscal year.

Overview

Prior to the Husky Transaction, the Company’s business consisted solely of the CompoSecure operations conducted through its wholly owned subsidiary, Holdings. The Company, together with Holdings, and its operating subsidiaries, creates innovative, highly differentiated and customized financial payment card products for banks and other payment card issuers to support and increase their customer acquisition, customer retention and organic customer spend. The Company’s customers consist primarily of leading international and domestic banks and other payment card issuers primarily within the United States (“U.S.”), with additional direct and indirect customers in Europe, Asia, Latin America, Canada, and the Middle East. The Company is a platform for next generation payment technology, security, and authentication solutions. The Company maintains trusted, highly-embedded and long-term customer relationships with an expanding set of global issuers. The Company has established a niche position in the financial payment card market through over 20 years of innovation and experience and is focused primarily on this

46

attractive subsector of the financial technology market. The Company serves a diverse set of direct customers and indirect customers, including some of the largest issuers of credit cards in the U.S.

Recent Developments

On September 27, 2024, Resolute Holdings was created as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings. On February 28, 2025, the Company completed the previously-announced spin-off (the "Spin-Off") of Resolute Holdings. In connection with the Spin-Off, Holdings entered into the CompoSecure Management Agreement, pursuant to which Resolute Holdings provides management and other related services to Holdings in exchange for payment of quarterly management fees based on 2.5% of Holdings last twelve-months' Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the CompoSecure Management Agreement, measured for the period ending on the fiscal quarter then ended (“CompoSecure Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA”). CompoSecure Management Agreement Adjusted EBITDA reflects (a) Holdings’ earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, extraordinary losses and expenses, one-time and non-recurring expenses, and the CompoSecure Management Fee, less (b) GPGI’s selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted for the same items above (“Parent Allocated Expense”, as defined in the CompoSecure Management Agreement). Holdings is also required to reimburse Resolute Holdings and its affiliates for Resolute Holdings’ documented costs and expenses incurred on behalf of Holdings other than those expenses related to Resolute Holdings or its affiliates personnel who provide services to Holdings under the CompoSecure Management Agreement. Resolute Holdings determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether a cost or expense will be borne by Resolute Holdings or by Holdings. The Spin-Off of Resolute Holdings from the Company was achieved through the distribution of all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Resolute Holdings (the "Resolute Holdings Common Stock"), on a pro rata basis, to holders of record of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Each holder of record of Common Stock received one share of Resolute Holdings Common Stock for every twelve shares of Common Stock held on February 20, 2025, the record date for the Spin-Off. In lieu of fractional shares of Resolute Holdings Common Stock, holders of Common Stock received cash. The distribution of shares of Resolute Holdings Common Stock in connection with the Spin‑Off was treated as a taxable dividend to the Company’s stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The distribution of shares of Resolute Holdings Common Stock in connection with the Spin-Off constituted an Extraordinary Dividend as defined in the agreement governing the Company's previously outstanding warrants (the "warrant agreement"). As a result, the warrant price was decreased from $11.50 per share of Common Stock to $7.97 per share of Common Stock, and the redemption trigger price was decreased from $18.00 per share of Common Stock to $14.47 per share of Common Stock, effective as of February 28, 2025. On November 3, 2025, the Company issued a Notice of Redemption for all outstanding public warrants, resulting in substantially all then-outstanding warrants being exercised before the December 3, 2025 redemption date, with the remaining warrants redeemed for $0.01 per warrant. Accordingly, no warrants remained outstanding or subject to remeasurement as of December 31, 2025.

Historically, the Company operated and controlled the business and affairs of Holdings by virtue of its control of the board of managers of Holdings, and thus the financial results of Holdings were consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. As of and subsequent to the Spin-Off, and as a result of the execution of the CompoSecure Management Agreement, control of Holdings transferred to Resolute Holdings and the Company no longer consolidates Holdings. For periods subsequent to the completion of the Spin-Off, Holdings is treated as a variable interest entity and the results of operations of Holdings and its subsidiaries are no longer consolidated in the financial statements of the Company; rather, such results are consolidated in the financial statements of Resolute Holdings, and the Company accounts for the results of Holdings and its subsidiaries (including the CompoSecure and Husky businesses) using the equity method of accounting, with the Company’s statement of operations reflecting the Company’s share of earnings of Holdings as earnings from an equity method investment, and the Company’s consolidated balance sheets reflect its carrying value in Holdings as an equity method investment.

Certain of Holdings' former equity holders had the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock ("Earnout Shares") in earnout consideration (collectively, the “Earnouts”). The Earnouts were subject to two stock price thresholds, with half of the Earnout Shares awarded upon the achievement of each threshold. The first Earnout threshold was achieved on December 17, 2024, and approximately 3.8 million Earnout Shares were issued. The second Earnout threshold was achieved on September 8, 2025, and approximately 4.4 million Earnout Shares (as adjusted for the Spin-Off) were issued.

47

On September 18, 2025, the Company transferred its listing from The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) to the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”).

On January 12, 2026, the Company, through Holdings, completed the Husky Transaction. In connection with the completion of the Husky Transaction, Husky entered into a management agreement (the "Husky Management Agreement") with Resolute Holdings, the terms of which are substantially identical to the terms of the CompoSecure Management Agreement. Under the Husky Management Agreement, Resolute Holdings provides ongoing management and operational oversight and is entitled to a quarterly management fee equal to 2.5% of the trailing twelve‑month Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the Husky Management Agreement of the Husky business, without duplication of any amounts payable under the CompoSecure Management Agreement. Consistent with the CompoSecure Management Agreement, the Husky Management Agreement includes an initial 10‑year term with automatic 10‑year renewal periods, reflecting the long‑term operating partnership established at closing.

Following the completion of the Husky Transaction, CompoSecure, Inc. rebranded to GPGI, Inc., and CompoSecure Holdings, L.L.C. rebranded to GPGI, Holdings, L.L.C. Beginning January 23, 2026, the Company’s common stock continued trading on the New York Stock Exchange, under the new ticker symbol “GPGI.”

On January 14, 2026, following completion of the Husky Transaction, Holdings refinanced approximately $2.1 billion of total indebtedness that was assumed in the Husky Transaction. The refinancing included the issuance of $900 million of 5.625% senior secured notes due 2033, the establishment of a new $1.2 billion term loan facility maturing in 2033, and $400 million of revolving credit commitments maturing in 2031. The proceeds from these new debt instruments were used to refinance Husky’s existing indebtedness and to pay related fees, costs, premiums, and expenses incurred in connection with the recapitalization of the combined company’s capital structure.

Economic Conditions

Economic tensions and changes in international trade policies, including new tariffs introduced by U.S. last year could impact the market for our products and services. In particular, a portion of the raw materials used by us to manufacture our products are obtained, directly or indirectly, from companies located outside of the United States. Additionally, a significant downturn in the domestic or global economy may cause our existing customers to pause or delay orders and prospective customers to defer new projects. Together, these circumstances create an environment in which it is challenging for us to predict future operating results. If these uncertain business, macroeconomic or political conditions continue or further decline, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Overview

Following the Spin‑Off on February 28, 2025, the Company no longer consolidates Holdings and instead accounts for its investment in Holdings under the equity method. The components of results of operations presented below primarily relate to the operations of Holdings prior to the Spin-Off, when the Company consolidated Holdings' operating results. The Husky Transaction closed on January 12, 2026, and therefore is not included in the results of operation for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Subsequent to the Spin-Off, the Company's activities have been limited to non-revenue generating functions such as its stock market listing, compliance with public company reporting obligations, obligations under the tax receivable agreement and income recognized from equity method investment.

Net Sales

48

Net sales reflect the Company’s revenue generated primarily from the sale of its products. Product sales primarily include the design and manufacturing of metal cards, including contact and dual interface cards. The Company also generates revenue from the sale of Prelams (which refers to pre-laminated sub-assemblies consisting of a composite of material layers which are partially laminated to be used as a component in the multiple layers of a final payment card or other card construction). Net sales include the effect of discounts and allowances which consist primarily of volume-based rebates.

Cost of Sales

The Company’s cost of sales includes the direct and indirect costs related to manufacturing products and providing related services. Product costs include the cost of raw materials and supplies, including various metals, EMV® chips, holograms, adhesives, magnetic stripes, and NFC assemblies; the cost of labor; equipment and facilities; operational overhead; depreciation and amortization; leases and rental charges; shipping and handling; and freight and insurance costs. Cost of sales can be impacted by many factors, including volume, operational efficiencies, procurement costs, and promotional activity.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

The Company’s gross profit represents its net sales less cost of sales, and its gross margin represents gross profit as a percentage of its net sales.

Operating Expenses

The Company’s operating expenses are comprised of selling, general, and administrative expenses, which generally consist of personnel-related expenses for its corporate, executive, finance, information technology, and other administrative functions, expenses for outside professional services, including legal, audit and accounting services, as well as expenses for facilities, depreciation, amortization, travel, sales and marketing.

Income from Operations and Operating Margin

Income from operations consists of the Company’s gross profit less its operating expenses. Operating margin is income from the Company’s operations as a percentage of its net sales.

Other Expenses, net

Other expense primarily consists of changes in fair value of warrant liability, earnout consideration liability and interest expense, net of any interest income.

Net (Loss) Income

Net (loss) income consists of the Company’s income from operations, less other expenses and income tax provision or benefit.

Factors Affecting the Company’s Operating Results

We believe that our performance and future success depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges. Please see the factors discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.

The Company’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $360.7 million, or 86%, to $59.8 million compared to $420.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was driven by the deconsolidation of Holdings on February 28, 2025. Holdings generated $402.2 million of net sales during the period from February 28, 2025

50

to December 31, 2025, and is reflected within earnings from equity method investment rather than net sales following deconsolidation.

Domestic: The Company’s domestic net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased $289.0 million, or 84%, to $54.5 million compared to $343.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Holdings generated $345.2 million of domestic net sales during the period from February 28, 2025 to December 31, 2025.

International: The Company’s international net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased $71.8 million, or 93%, to $5.3 million compared to $77.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The international customer base is comprised of a larger population of smaller customers relative to the domestic customer base. Holdings generated $57.1 million of international net sales during the period from February 28, 2025 to December 31, 2025.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

The Company’s gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased $190.5 million, or 87%, to $28.7 million compared to $219.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, while the gross profit margin decreased from 52% to 48%. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by the deconsolidation of Holdings.

Operating Expenses

The Company’s operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased $69.1 million, or 62%, to $42.5 million compared to $111.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was driven primarily by the deconsolidation of Holdings.

(Loss) Income from Operations and Operating Margin

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company had a loss from operations of $13.7 million compared to income from operations of $107.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s operating margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased to (23%) compared to 26% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in income from operations and operating margin was driven primarily by the deconsolidation of Holdings.

Other Expenses, Net

Other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $23.5 million, or 12%, to $212.1 million compared to $188.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in other expenses was primarily due to changes in the fair value of earnout consideration liability and warrant liability resulting in non-cash expenses of $208.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $171.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in net interest expense of $15.1 million resulting from the conversion of all of the Company's previously-outstanding exchangeable notes (the "Exchangeable Notes") into shares of Common Stock during the fourth quarter of 2024 and the deconsolidation of Holdings. As a result of the deconsolidation, all interest on Holdings debt is reflected within earnings in equity method investment.

Earnings in Equity Method Investment

Beginning February 28, 2025, the Company recognizes its share of Holdings’ net income within “Earnings in equity method investment,” which totaled $128.8 million for 2025. The equity method investment resulted from the deconsolidation associated with the Spin-Off and related CompoSecure Management Agreement. Refer to Note 6 in the consolidated financial statements for the results of our equity method investment.

Income Tax Expense

The Company's income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $39.0 million, compared to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in tax expense was primarily related to the Company being

51

subject to tax on 100% of Holdings’ taxable income following the Tungsten Transactions, along with a taxable gain on appreciated property resulting from the Spin-Off.

The Company’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $29.9 million, or 8%, to $420.6 million compared to $390.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven by continued domestic growth in the CompoSecure business’ premium payment card business, which was up 7%, and international sales, which were up 11%.

52

Domestic: The Company’s domestic net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $22.0 million, or 7%, to $343.5 million compared to $321.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to added accounts by existing customers of the CompoSecure business as they continued to experience higher demand.

International: The Company’s international net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $7.9 million, or 11%, to $77.1 million compared to $69.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The international customer base of the CompoSecure business is comprised of a larger population of smaller customers relative to its domestic customer base. There were increased sales across the customer base driving growth in net sales during 2024.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

The Company’s gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $10.1 million, or 5%, to $219.2 million compared to $209.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, while the gross profit margin decreased from 54% to 52%. The decrease in gross margin was partially driven by initial production of new and innovative card constructions in the CompoSecure business, which resulted in lower production efficiencies, and the impact of inflationary pressure on wages and materials for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Operating Expenses

The Company’s operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $21.6 million, or 24%, to $111.6 million compared to $90.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in professional fees of $10.4 million associated with the Tungsten Transactions and Spin-Off, stock-based compensation of $3.7 million, salaries and employee benefits of $3.2 million, bonus expenses of $3.3 million, computer software supplies of $0.8 million and various other costs of $1.4 million. These increases were partially offset by decreases in commission expenses of $0.6 million and marketing expenses of $0.6 million.

Income from Operations and Operating Margin

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had income from operations of $107.6 million compared to income from operations of $119.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company’s operating margin for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased to 26% compared to 30% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in operating margin was primarily due to the decrease in gross margin as a percentage of revenue and increase in operating expenses offset by revenue growth.

Other Expenses, Net

Other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $186.6 million, or 9,278%, to $188.6 million compared to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in other expenses was primarily due to changes in the fair value of earnout consideration liability, warrant liability and make-whole liability resulting in non-cash expenses of $171.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to income of $22.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, resulting in an increase in operating expense of $194.0 million. The increase in expense related to the changes in fair value was offset by lower interest expense resulting from principal payments made on the outstanding term loan and the conversion of all outstanding Exchangeable Notes into shares of Common Stock resulting in reduced interest expense on the Exchangeable Notes.

Income Tax Expense

The Company's income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $2.2 million, compared to $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Form 10-K includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and that may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company believes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS) are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s financial performance.

Following the Spin-Off of Resolute Holdings and the CompoSecure Management Agreement, and the resulting shift to equity method accounting under GAAP beginning February 28, 2025, the Company presents a broader set of non-GAAP measures, including Net Sales and Gross Profit from Holdings on a combined basis, to provide investors with consistent, comparable financial information that better represents the underlying performance of the business across reporting periods.

The Company uses these non-GAAP measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, as well as evaluate its underlying historical performance and measure incentive compensation. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures depict the true economic performance of the business by encompassing only relevant and controllable events, enabling the Company to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide valuable insight into operational efficiency independent of capital structure and tax environment; Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS offer investors a clearer view of ongoing profitability by excluding non-recurring and non-operational items. Additionally, the Company’s debt agreements contain covenants based on variations of these measures for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. The Company believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that its management uses in analyzing operating results.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and non-GAAP EPS should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and non-GAAP EPS are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of the Company’s liquidity. These non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The following unaudited table presents the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

GPGI's primary sources of liquidity are its existing cash and cash equivalents balances, funding from its wholly owned subsidiary, Holdings, which are treated as distributions from Holdings to the Company, and potential proceeds from the sale of stock. Historically, these sources of liquidity have also included proceeds from the exercise of the Company’s previously-outstanding redeemable warrants. The Company’s primary cash requirements include limited operating expenses relating primarily to public company expenses such as D&O insurance, professional fees, and stock exchange listing fees. Holdings' primary sources of liquidity are its existing cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flows from operations and borrowings on its term loan and revolving credit facility. Holdings’ primary cash requirements include operating expenses, debt service payments (principal and interest), and capital expenditures (including property and equipment).

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $114.6 million and Holdings had cash and cash equivalents of $157.0 million, investment in US treasury bills of $41.1 million and total debt principal outstanding of $186.3 million. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had aggregate cash and cash equivalents of $77.5 million and total debt principal outstanding of $197.5 million.

The Company believes that available cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2025 of $114.6 million are sufficient to meet the liquidity needs of the Company. The Company anticipates that to the extent that the Company and/or Holdings requires additional liquidity, it will be funded through borrowings on Holdings' revolving credit facility, the incurrence of other indebtedness, or a combination thereof and/or offering of the Company's equity or debt securities in capital markets. The Company cannot be assured that it or Holdings will be able to obtain this additional liquidity on reasonable terms, or at all. Additionally, the liquidity of the Company and Holdings and their ability to meet their obligations and their capital requirements are also dependent on the future financial performance of Holdings, which is subject to general economic, financial and other factors that are beyond its control. Accordingly, the Company cannot be assured that Holdings will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future capital will be available from additional indebtedness or other sources to meet the liquidity needs of the Company and Holdings. The Company has announced plans to use acquisitions as part of its growth strategy. As the Company pursues acquisitions, the Company and/or Holdings may incur additional equity or debt financings to complete such acquisitions.

Effective September 19, 2024, the Tungsten acquisition of a majority of the Company’s Class A Common Stock caused a Fundamental Change, as defined in the Indenture to the Exchangeable Notes. This Fundamental Change provided holders of the Exchangeable Notes a choice to: (1) exchange the Exchangeable Notes for shares of Class A Common Stock at a temporarily increased exchange rate of 104.5199 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes until November 27, 2024 (with the exchange rate then reverting to the existing 91.0972 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes); (2) have the Company repurchase for cash of all of such holder’s Exchangeable Notes on November 29, 2024 at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest; or (3) continue to hold the Exchangeable Notes. Through December 31, 2024, all $130 million of the Exchangeable Notes were surrendered and exchanged for an aggregate of 13,587,565 newly-issued shares of Common Stock. As of December 31, 2024, all of the Exchangeable Notes had been converted into shares of Common Stock.

On November 2, 2025, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with entities affiliated with Platinum Equity, pursuant to which the Company combined with Husky Technologies Limited. The transaction closed on January 12, 2026 for aggregate consideration valued at approximately $5.0 billion, funded through a combination of debt financing, a private placement of common stock, equity rollover from Platinum Equity, and cash consideration, as described above. In connection with the closing, Husky became a wholly owned subsidiary of

57

Holdings. Additional information is included in Note 19 of the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Consolidated Financial Statements").

On November 3, 2025, the Company called for redemption all of its issued and outstanding redeemable warrants. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company received $156.2 million of cash and issued 21,192,626 shares in connection with exercises of the warrants by the holders thereof. As of December 31, 2025, no warrants remained outstanding.

In connection with the closing of the Husky Transaction, the Company repaid in full all outstanding obligations under Holdings' existing credit facility and terminated all related commitments. No early termination penalties or prepayment premiums were incurred in connection with the payoff. This repayment represents the removal of our prior revolving and term loan structure and the associated interest expense, covenants, and liquidity considerations that were in place as of December 31, 2025. Additional information is included in Note 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On January 14, 2026, following the completion of the Husky Transaction, Holdings completed a refinancing of approximately $2.1 billion of indebtedness that was assumed as part of the Husky Transaction (the "Refinancing Transactions"). The Refinancing Transactions included (i) the issuance of $900.0 million of 5.625% senior secured notes due 2033 (the "Notes"), (ii) the establishment of a new $1.2 billion term loan facility maturing in 2033 (the "New Term Loan"), and (iii) $400.0 million of revolving credit commitments maturing in 2031 (the "New Revolving Facility"). Proceeds from these new debt instruments were used to refinance Husky’s existing indebtedness and to pay related fees, costs, premiums, and expenses incurred in connection with the recapitalization of the combined company’s capital structure. Additional information is included in Note 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

These financing activities significantly modified Holdings' capital structure, extended its maturity profile, and increased the available liquidity under the New Revolving Credit Facility. We expect that the increased amount of new long‑term debt will increase our annual cash interest outflows beginning in 2026; however, the structure also enhances financial flexibility by providing longer‑dated maturities and a more scalable credit platform supporting the combined operations of Holdings. The refinancing also consolidates and simplifies Holdings' debt portfolio, replacing multiple legacy facilities with a single capital structure intended to support the long‑term strategy of the combined company.

The Company continues to evaluate its capital allocation priorities, including deleveraging Holdings’ balance sheet over time, managing working capital requirements of the larger post‑combination enterprise, and maintaining sufficient liquidity to fund integration activities, strategic investments, and ongoing operations. As of the filing date, the Company believes it has adequate liquidity to meet its near‑term and long‑term obligations through cash on hand, operating cash flows and distributions from Holdings, and available debt capacity under Holdings' New Revolving Credit Facility.

    Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Operations

Cash used in the Company’s operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $22.9 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $129.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $152.5 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the deconsolidation of Holdings and changes in working capital. These decreases were partially offset by distributions from Holdings and deferred tax expense.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Cash used in the Company’s investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $60.7 million, primarily related to cash and cash equivalents that were deconsolidated as a result of the Spin-Off and execution of the CompoSecure Management Agreement. That compared to cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 of $9.9 million which was primarily attributable to purchases of equipment, investment in SAFE and capitalized software expenditures.

58

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

Cash provided by the Company’s financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $120.8 million, compared to cash used in the Company's financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 of $83.4 million. Cash provided in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 primarily related to proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $156.2 million offset by $18.0 million of payments for taxes related to net share settlement of equity awards, purchase of treasury shares of $12.2 million and payment of TRA liability of $5.3 million. Cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 primarily related to distributions to non-controlling interest holders of $34.9 million, special distribution to non-controlling interest holders of $15.6 million, repayment of scheduled term loan principal payments of $12.8 million, dividends to holders of the Common Stock of $8.9 million, payments for taxes relating to net settlement of equity awards $12.8 million, deferred financing cost relating to debt modification of $2.1 million and payment of tax receivable agreement liability of $1.3 million. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $5.0 million from the exercise of stock options and issuance of shares for ESPP transactions.

Outlook Following the Husky Transaction

The completion of the Husky Transaction materially expands the scale and complexity of the Company’s operations. Beginning in 2026, the Company expects its liquidity profile, debt service requirements, capital allocation priorities and cash flow generation to be significantly influenced by the results of the Husky business. Management believes the enhanced scale of the combined enterprise provides opportunities to pursue multi‑industry growth initiatives, operational efficiencies and a broader set of commercial end‑markets. However, the combined company is subject to increased leverage following the Refinancing Transactions, and future liquidity will depend on the successful integration and operating performance of Husky. The Company will continue to evaluate the combined capital structure and may pursue additional financing or capital markets activity as appropriate.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General:

59

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based upon audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements involve management making estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures with respect to contingent liabilities and assets at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments are based on the Company’s historical experience, terms of its existing contracts, evaluation of trends in the industry, information provided by its customers, and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. The Company’s actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its expected reserves and the estimates used in calculations on an on-going basis. Significant areas requiring management to make estimates include the valuation of equity instruments, measurement of changes in the fair value of earnout consideration liability, estimates of derivative liability associated with the Exchangeable Notes which were marked to market each quarter based on a Lattice model approach, changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, derivative asset for the interest rate swap, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets which are based on an assessment of recoverability of the deferred tax assets against future taxable income and estimates of the inputs used to calculate the tax receivable agreement liability. See Notes 7, 10 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the nature of these assumptions and conditions. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a complete description of the significant accounting policies that have been followed in preparing the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

The accounting policies described below are those that the Company considers to be the most critical for an understanding of its financial condition and results of operations and that require the most complex and subjective management judgment.

Change to Equity Method Accounting Presentation for Holdings

As a result of the Spin-Off and Holdings entering into the CompoSecure Management Agreement with Resolute Holdings, the Company determined that Holdings is a VIE for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of Holdings that most significantly impact its economic performance. Therefore, the results of operations and cash flows of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Holdings, and the operating companies which are its subsidiaries, are not consolidated in the financial statements and, instead, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the accounting standard ASC 606 when the performance obligations under the terms of the Company’s contracts with its customers have been satisfied. This occurs at the point in time when control of the specific goods or services as specified by each purchase order are transferred to customers. Specific goods refer to the products offered by the Company, including metal cards, high security documents, and pre-laminated materials. Transfer of control passes to customers upon shipment or upon receipt, depending on the agreement with the specific customers. ASC 606 requires entities to record a contract asset when a performance obligation has been satisfied or partially satisfied, but the amount of consideration has not yet been received because the receipt of the consideration is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. ASC 606 also requires an entity to present a revenue contract as a contract liability in instances when a customer pays consideration, or a customer has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (e.g. receivable), before the entity transfers a good or service to the customer.

The primary judgments relating to the Company’s revenue recognition include determining whether (i) the contract with a customer exists; (ii) performance obligations are identified; (iii) the transaction price is determined; (iv) the transaction price is allocated to performance obligations; and (v) the distinct performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to the client. Transfer of control is typically evaluated from the customer's perspective.

60

The Company invoices its customers at the time at which control is transferred, with payment terms ranging between 15 and 60 days depending on each individual contract. As the payment is due within 60 days of the invoice, a significant financing component is not included within the contracts.

The majority of the Company’s contracts with its customers have the same performance obligation of manufacturing and transferring the specified number of cards to the customer. Each individual card included within an order constitutes a separate performance obligation, which is satisfied upon the transfer of goods to the customer. The contract term as defined by ASC 606 is the length of time it takes to deliver the goods or services promised under the purchase order or statement of work. As such, the Company's contracts are generally short term in nature.

Revenue is measured in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue is recognized net of variable consideration such as discounts, rebates and returns.

The Company’s products do not include an unmitigated right of return unless the product is non-conforming or defective. If the goods are non-conforming or defective, the defective goods are replaced or reworked or, in certain instances, a credit is issued for the portion of the order that was non-conforming or defective. A provision for sales returns and allowances is recorded based on experience with goods being returned. Most returned goods are re-worked and subsequently re-shipped to the customer and recognized as revenue. Historically, returns have not been material to the Company.

Additionally, the Company has a rebate program with certain customers allowing for rebates based on achieving a certain level of shipped sales during the calendar year. These rebates are estimated and updated throughout the year and recorded against revenues and the related accounts receivable.

On occasion, the Company receives requests from customers to hold purchased products. We evaluate these requests as bill and hold arrangements. The Company recognizes revenue from such bill and hold arrangements in accordance with the guidance provided in ASC 606, which indicates that, for a customer to have obtained control of a product in a bill and hold arrangement all of the following criteria must be met: (a) the reason for the bill and hold is substantive, (b) the product has separately been identified as belonging to the customer, (c) the product is currently ready for physical transfer to the customer, and (d) we do not have the ability to use the product or direct it to another customer. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $1.2 million and $8.1 million of revenue under bill and hold arrangements, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to controlling interest by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period includes Class A common stock but is exclusive of Class B common stock as these shares have no economic or participating rights. As a result of the Tungsten Transactions, all shares of Class B Common Stock were exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock on September 17, 2024. No shares of Class B Common Stock were outstanding at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company estimates the fair value of option awards using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. Option valuation model requires the Company to estimate a number of key valuation inputs including expected volatility, expected dividend yield, expected term, and risk-free interest rate. The expected term assumption reflects the period for which the Company believes the option will remain outstanding. This assumption is based upon the historical and expected behavior of the option holders and may vary based upon the behavior of different groups of option holders. The most subjective estimate is the expected volatility of the underlying unit when determining the fair market value of an option granted. As there was no trading history for the Company’s equity prior to 2021, the

61

Company utilized a blend of an appropriate peer group and the Company's volatility to estimate the volatility assumption when calculating the fair value of options granted during 2025 and 2024. An entity that is unable to estimate the expected volatility of the price of its underlying share may measure awards based on a “calculated value,” which substitutes the volatility of an appropriate index for the volatility of the entity’s own share price. The Company used the historical closing values of comparable publicly held entities to estimate volatility. The risk-free rate reflects the U.S. Treasury yield curve for a similar expected life instrument in effect at the time of the grant. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company granted 343,720 non-qualified stock options. The Company also granted restricted stock units and performance-based stock units under its 2021 incentive plan during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. See Note 10 in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain equity awards associated with the achievement of certain market conditions discussed below were achieved during the year ended December 31, 2025

Earnout Consideration

Certain of Holdings' equity holders had the right to receive an aggregate of up to 7.5 million additional shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock in earnout consideration based on the achievement of certain stock price thresholds (collectively, the “Earnouts”), with 657,160 of the Earnouts being subject to ASC 718. The remaining shares were considered to be derivative liability and the valuation of the Earnouts liability was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model that utilizes significant assumptions, including share price, volatility, risk-free rate of return, expected term, anticipated dividends and forfeitures, that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award to calculate the fair value of the award. The Company classifies the Earnouts as liabilities at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet and adjusts the fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in revaluation of earnout consideration liability in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

The achievement of the Earnouts were subject to two price thresholds with half to be awarded upon the achievement of each threshold. The first phase was to expire upon the three year anniversary upon the initial closing date and the second phase was set to expire upon the four year anniversary. The Earnouts under the first phase were achieved on December 13, 2024 and approximately 3.8 million shares were issued The second Earnout threshold was achieved on September 8, 2025, and approximately 4.4 million (as adjusted for the Spin-Off) Earnout Shares were issued. See Notes 10 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815 under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrants as liabilities at their fair value within warrant liability on the consolidated balance sheet and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in revaluation of warrant liability in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The warrants are publicly traded and are valued using the quoted market price as the fair value at the end of each balance sheet date.

On November 3, 2025, the Company issued a Notice of Redemption calling for the redemption of all outstanding warrants, with a redemption date of December 3, 2025. Following the notice, substantially all warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, and all remaining warrants not exercised by 5:00 p.m. New York City time on December 3, 2025, were canceled and became entitled only to the $0.01 per warrant redemption price. As a result, no warrants remained outstanding as of December 31, 2025, and therefore no warrant liability was subject to remeasurement at December 31, 2025. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information for additional information on the warrants.

Tax Receivable Agreement Liability

62

In connection with the Roman DBDR Business Combination, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement (the "TRA" or "Tax Receivable Agreement") with Holdings and holders of interests in Holdings (the "TRA Parties"). Pursuant to the TRA, the Company is required to pay to certain TRA Parties, 90% of the amount of savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that the Company actually realizes as a result of the utilization of certain tax attributes. The TRA will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless the Company exercises its right to terminate the agreement for an amount representing the present value of anticipated future tax benefits under the TRA. The Company will retain the benefit of the remaining 10% of these cash tax savings. The Company recorded $271.4 million and $253.7 million in TRA liability as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company paid $5.3 million and $1.3 million in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, to the TRA Parties pursuant to the savings in U.S. federal, state and local income taxes that the Company realized as a result of the utilization of certain tax attributes for the fiscal years 2024 and 2023.

In connection with the Tungsten Transactions, the Company and certain of the TRA Parties entered into Amendment No. 1 to the TRA, dated as of August 7, 2024 (the "TRA Amendment"). The TRA Amendment provides for certain amendments to the TRA for the benefit of the Company. In particular, the TRA Amendment amends the definition of “Change of Control” (as defined in the TRA) to forego the acceleration of certain payments that may have otherwise been payable to the TRA Parties by the Company or Holdings as a result of the Tungsten Transactions, provided that such TRA Parties shall retain their right to acceleration of payments upon any future change of control. The TRA Amendment also amends the “Early Termination Rate” (as defined in the TRA) by providing for an increase in the discount rate applicable to any future early termination payments pursuant to the TRA, resulting in a decrease in the amount of any such potential payments that the TRA Parties would otherwise be entitled to receive.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are applied to the income attributable to the controlling interest (see Note 9 and Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) as the income attributable to the non-controlling interest is pass-through income. The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company will continue to evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities on a quarterly basis, and will adjust such amounts in light of changing facts and circumstances, including but not limited to future projections of taxable income, tax legislation, rulings by relevant tax authorities and the progress of ongoing tax audits, if any. We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized in future periods.

The Company was not subject to income taxes prior to December 27, 2021, due to its equity structure, under which income was taxed on a pass‑through basis. Federal, state and local income tax returns for years prior to 2019 are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities. During the year ended December 31, 2024, federal tax authorities completed their audit of fiscal 2020 and no adjustments were proposed.

Prior to the Tungsten Transactions, Holdings was a partnership for tax purposes. Pursuant to Holdings’ limited liability company agreement, during a portion of fiscal 2024 (and prior years), Holdings made pro rata tax distributions to its members. These distributions were based on the Company’s estimate of taxable income for each year, updated throughout the year. Tax distributions from Holdings were intended to provide each member of Holdings sufficient funds to meet tax obligations with respect to the taxable income of Holdings allocated to each member. The Holdings limited liability company agreement required distributions to be calculated based on a tax rate equal to the highest combined marginal federal and applicable state or local statutory income tax rate applicable to an individual resident in New York City, New York, including the Medicare contribution tax on unearned income, taking into account all jurisdictions in which the Company was required to file income tax returns together with the relevant apportionment information subject to various adjustments. For the year ended December 31, 2024,

63

Holdings distributed a total of $50.1 million of tax distributions to its members, of which $15.2 million was paid to GPGI, resulting in a net tax distribution to all other members of $34.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Holdings distributed a total of $50.0 million of tax distributions to its members, of which $11.6 million was paid to GPGI, resulting in a net tax distribution to all other members of $38.4 million. As a result of the Tungsten Transactions, the Company became the sole member of Holdings, eliminating the requirement for further tax distributions to members other than the Company.

Market and Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of investments in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. The Company’s primary exposure is credit risk on receivables as the Company does not require any collateral for its accounts receivable. Credit risk is the loss that may result from a trade customer’s or counterparty’s nonperformance. The Company uses credit policies to control credit risk, including utilizing an established credit approval process, monitoring customer and counterparty limits, employing credit mitigation measures such as analyzing customers’ financial statements, and accepting personal guarantees and various forms of collateral. The Company believes that its customers and counterparties will be able to satisfy their obligations under their contracts.

The Company maintains cash, and cash equivalents with approved federally insured financial institutions. Such deposit accounts at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company is exposed to credit risks and liquidity in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of investments in excess of FDIC insured limits. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure with any institution if required. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts.
