| Acquisitions | 3. Acquisitions Acquisition of Arizona PPE Recon, Inc. On September 15, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of U.S.-based Arizona PPE Recon, Inc. (“Arizona PPE”) for cash consideration of approximately $4.1 million, subject to post-closing adjustments and customary holdback provisions. Founded in 2016, Arizona PPE is the leading UL-certified independent services provider (“ISP”) for performing advanced decontamination, inspection and repairs on firefighting garments for the Arizona market, as well as providing educational and training classes to fire departments and personnel to help them implement and adhere to NFPA 1851 guidelines. Arizona PPE’s operating results are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date. The acquisition qualified as a business combination and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Arizona PPE’s operating results and assets, including acquired intangibles and goodwill, are reported as part of U.S. in our geographic segment reporting. The following table summarizes the fair values of the Arizona PPE assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition:
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition were recorded at estimated fair values. Estimated fair values were determined by management, based in part on an independent valuation performed by a third-party valuation specialist. The valuation methods used to determine the estimated fair value of intangible assets included the excess earnings approach for customer relationships using customer inputs and contributory charges and the relief from royalty method for trade names. Several significant assumptions and estimates were involved in the application of these valuation methods, including forecasted sales volumes and prices, royalty rates, costs to produce, tax rates, capital spending, discount rates, attrition rates and working capital changes. Cash flow forecasts were generally based on Arizona PPE’s pre-acquisition forecasts and management estimates. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives. The customer relationships and trade names and trademarks acquired in the Arizona PPE transaction are being amortized over periods of 13 years and 10 years, respectively, and are deductible for tax purposes.
Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Among the factors that contributed to a purchase price in excess of the estimated fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired were the acquisition of an assembled workforce, the expected synergies and other benefits that we believe will result from combining the operations of Arizona PPE with our operations. Goodwill related to the Arizona PPE acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.

(“California PPE”) for a combination of approximately $2.4 million in cash consideration and 227,728 unregistered shares of the Company's common stock with an estimated fair value of $3.3 million at the date of acquisition, subject to post-closing adjustments and customary holdback provisions. Founded in 2022, California PPE is a leading and rapidly expanding UL-certified ISP in the California firefighting services market, one of the largest fire markets in the U.S. It also provides advanced decontamination, repair, and inspection of firefighting personal protective equipment, along with rental services and sales of cleaning detergents, extractors, and dryers.
