Note 10 – Acquisition

On December 16, 2025, the Company’s subsidiary Hudson Technologies Company completed the acquisition of substantially all the business assets of Denver Refrigerants Inc. (d/b/a Refrigerants Inc.) (the “Refrigerants Inc. Acquisition”) which expands the Company’s reach in key markets for both refrigerant sales and the aftermarket supply chain of recovered refrigerant. The Company considered the guidance in ASC 805-10-55 and concluded that the transaction met the definition of a business, therefore the transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The consideration for Refrigerants Inc. Acquisition was approximately $2.2 million in cash, paid at the closing, and provides for a further contingent payment of up to $2.0 million payable, to the extent earned, approximately 17 and 29 months from the closing date. The Company estimated the fair value of this contingent earn-out liability to be $1.8 million as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026 which was recorded in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
