Fair Value Measurements FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company uses a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about valuation based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three levels of inputs are classified as follows:
•Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
•Level 2 — observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and
•Level 3 — unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches within the fair value measurement framework. The valuation methodologies used for the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value and their classification in the valuation hierarchy are summarized below.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents primarily consist of time-based deposits and interest-bearing instruments with maturities of three months or less. The Company classified cash equivalents as Level 1 due to the short-term nature of these instruments and measured the fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Interest Rate Swaps
As described in Note 5 – Debt, the Company has, from time to time, executed interest rate swaps as a means of fixing the floating interest rate component on a portion of its floating-rate debt. The Company classifies its interest rate swaps as Level 2 due to the use of a discounted cash flow model based on the terms of the contract and the interest rate curve (Level 2 inputs) to calculate the fair value of the swaps. The Company had no interest rate swaps outstanding as of March 31, 2026.
Contingent Consideration
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had contingent obligations to transfer up to $3.9 million, $4.8 million, and $54.0 million to the former owners of Blasters, Inc. and Blasters Technologies, LLC (collectively, “Blasters”), Standard Equipment Company (“Standard”), and New Way, respectively, if specified financial results are met over future reporting periods (i.e., an earn-out). The Blasters, Standard, and New Way acquisitions were completed on January 3, 2023, October 4, 2024, and November 25, 2025, respectively. The Blasters contingent earn-out payments, if earned, would be due to be paid annually, in each of the three years following the anniversary of the closing date. There was no contingent earn-out payable for the first or second annual measurement periods. The third annual measurement period ended on January 3, 2026, and the applicable contingent earn-out payment, if any, is expected to be finalized in the second quarter of 2026. The Standard contingent earn-out payment, if earned, would be due to be paid following the end of the performance period, which concludes on January 1, 2027. The New Way contingent earn-out payment, if earned, would be due to be paid following the end of the performance period, which concludes on December 31, 2027.
The Company also previously had contingent obligations to transfer up to $15.0 million to the former owner of Hog. The applicable performance period for the Hog earn-out ended on December 31, 2025. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company determined that, based on the achievement of certain financial results, the full amount of the contingent consideration had been earned, and paid an additional $15.0 million to the former owner of Hog. See Note 2 - Acquisitions for additional information.
Liabilities for contingent consideration are measured at fair value each reporting period, with the acquisition-date fair value included as part of the consideration transferred. Subsequent changes in fair value are included as a component of Acquisition and integration-related expenses, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company uses an income approach to value the contingent consideration liability based on the present value of risk-adjusted future cash flows under either a scenario-based or option-pricing method, as appropriate. Due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs, such as prospective financial information or probabilities of future events as of
March 31, 2026, the Company has classified the contingent consideration liability within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy outlined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements.
The following table summarizes the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026:
