2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the financial condition, results of operations, statements of stockholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company, and were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company consolidates its subsidiaries that are wholly-owned, and majority owned, and entities that are variable interest entities where the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. Our consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of: A-Mark Trading AG (“AMTAG”), Transcontinental Depository Services, LLC (“TDS”), A-M Global Logistics, LLC (“AMGL”), AM&ST Associates, LLC (“AMST”), AM/LPM Ventures, LLC, which owns a majority interest in LPM Group Limited (“LPM”), Spectrum Group International, LLC (“SGI”), Pinehurst Coin Exchange, Inc. (“Pinehurst”), AM Precious Metals Singapore PTE Ltd., JM Bullion, Inc. (“JMB”), Goldine, Inc. (“Goldline”), Silver Gold Bull, Inc. (“SGB”), AMS Holding, LLC (“AMS”), AM LPM Singapore PTE Ltd., Monex Deposit Company ("Monex"), and Collateral Finance Corporation, LLC, including its wholly-owned subsidiary, CFC Alternative Investments (collectively “CFC”). Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates include, among others, determination of fair value (primarily, with respect to precious metal inventory, derivatives, assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations, certain financial instruments, and certain investments); impairment assessments of property, plant and equipment, long-term investments, intangible assets, and goodwill; valuation allowance determination on deferred tax assets; determining the incremental borrowing rate for calculating right of use assets and lease liabilities; and revenue recognition judgments. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of income, condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity, and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Operating results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026 or for any other interim period during such fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”), as filed with the SEC. Amounts related to disclosure of June 30, 2025 balances within these interim condensed consolidated financial statements were derived from the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2025 Annual Report.

Revenue Recognition

Settlement Date Accounting

The majority of the Company’s sales of precious metals are conducted using sales contracts that meet the definition of derivative instruments in accordance with Derivatives and Hedging Topic 815 of the ASC ("ASC 815"). The contract underlying the Company's commitment to deliver precious metals is referred to as a “fixed-price forward commodity contract” because the price of the commodity is fixed at the time the order is placed. Revenue is recognized on the settlement date, which is defined as the date on which: (i) the quantity, price, and specific items being purchased have been established, (ii) metals have been delivered to the customer, and (iii) payment has been received or is covered by the customer’s established credit limit with the Company.

The Company also sells precious metals held in third-party storage for the benefit of the customer. The customer may request physical delivery at any time. Although the complete economic interest transfers to the customer at the time of sale, followed by the transfer of legal title, revenue is not recognized until physical delivery occurs. Prior to delivery, the Company records gains or losses within cost of sales based on fluctuations in the precious metals value relative to the fixed prices paid by the customer. These metals are classified as restricted inventory, with a corresponding liability on borrowed metals representing the obligation to deliver the metals in the future.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes its sale of collectible coins, storage, logistics, licensing, specialized auction, and other services revenues in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In aggregate, these types of revenues account for less than 5% of the Company's consolidated revenues, or $178.2 million and $448.7 million during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, respectively, and $34.0 million and $36.2 million during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, respectively.

The Company’s revenue from contracts with customers under ASC 606 primarily consists of sales of numismatic products.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue resulting from unfulfilled performance obligations, such as items shipped but not delivered and orders paid or partially paid from certain customers prior to shipment. Contract liabilities were $28.9 million and $6.9 million as of March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. Our contract liabilities are typically expected to be recognized as revenue within the next three months.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the Trading Credit Facility are included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the debt. Debt issuance costs of the Trading Credit Facility are amortized on a straight-line basis, while all other debt issuance costs are amortized using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt issuance costs included in interest expense was $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $3.9 million and $2.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Advertising

Advertising and marketing costs consist primarily of internet advertising, online marketing, direct mail, print media, and television commercials and are expensed when incurred. Advertising costs totaled $12.7 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $32.1 million and $14.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Costs associated with the marketing and promotion of the Company's products are included within selling, general, and administrative expenses. Advertising costs associated with the operation of our SilverPrice.org and GoldPrice.org websites, which provide price information on silver, gold, and cryptocurrencies, are not included within selling, general, and administrative expenses, but are included in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs represent costs associated with shipping product to customers and receiving product from vendors and are included in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Shipping and handling costs totaled $14.5 million and $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $32.9 million and $18.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Earnings per Share ("EPS")

The Company calculates basic EPS by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for the potentially dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs"), and deferred stock units (“DSUs"), using the treasury stock method.

The Company considers participating securities in its calculation of EPS. Under the two-class method of calculating EPS, earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. The Company’s participating securities include vested RSU and DSU awards. Unvested RSU and DSU awards are not considered participating securities as they are forfeitable until the vesting date.

The anti-dilutive shares excluded from the table above were 1,067 and 794,607 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 58,660 and 14,672 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company reported a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and as such, all potentially dilutive shares of common stock would have been antidilutive for such period. Actual common shares outstanding totaled 28,474,034 and 24,624,736 as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASC are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU").

Recently Issued Accounting Standards not yet adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which updates the guidance on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose specific categories within the rate reconciliation, provide additional information for reconciling items that meet certain quantitative thresholds, and provide additional information about income taxes paid. This update is effective for our 2026 fiscal year Form 10-K; early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Topic 220), which requires additional disclosures, for interim and annual reporting, of expenses by nature, such as inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization, and selling expenses. This update is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2027 and interim periods thereafter, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which simplifies the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. This ASU will be effective for the Company for the first fiscal quarter of 2029, and may be adopted either prospectively, retrospectively, or through modified retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements, which includes amendments to more closely align hedge accounting with the economics of an entity’s risk management activities. This update is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2027 and interim periods thereafter, and should be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective for the Company, accounting pronouncement, if currently adopted would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
