| SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | NOTE 19 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company announced an executive leadership transition to support the Company’s next phase of growth, including the appointment of William J. Black, Jr. as Executive Vice Chair, Christopher F. Baron as President and Chief Executive Officer, and Kevin L. Thompson as EVP, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary. On April 7, 2026, the Board of Directors approved the involuntary termination without cause of three senior executive officers: George J. Guarini (President and Chief Executive Officer), Janet L. King (Sr. EVP and Chief Operating Officer), and Keary L. Colwell (Sr. EVP, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and Corporate Secretary). Each departing executive’s change in role was effective April 10, 2026, with a separation date of July 6, 2026, during which time they will continue as non-executive employees providing transition assistance. Estimated cash severance payments total approximately $9.2 million, or approximately $8.4 million net of taxes, and will be paid over periods ranging from 12 to 24 months. In addition, a total of 47,205 shares of restricted stock will vest in connection with the separations, and each departing executive will receive continued health insurance benefits for periods ranging from 12 to 24 months. The Company expects to recognize these costs beginning in the second quarter of 2026, with certain amounts recognized over the applicable service and payment periods. As these actions were approved and initiated subsequent to March 31, 2026, no amounts related to these charges have been reflected in the Company’s results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Additional information regarding these matters was previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 9, 2026. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that except for the matter discussed above, no other events have occurred that would require adjustments to its disclosures in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
