PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Introduction
Outdoor Holding Company ("Outdoor Holding," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") began its operations in 2017 as a producer of high-performance ammunition and premium components. Following the acquisition of the GunBroker business ("GunBroker") in 2021, we conducted operations through two operating and reportable segments: Ammunition segment and Marketplace segment. The Ammunition segment engaged in the design, production and marketing of ammunition, ammunition components and related products. The Marketplace segment consists of the GunBroker e-commerce marketplace (“Marketplace”), which, in its role as a marketplace platform, supports the lawful sale of firearms, ammunition, and hunting/shooting accessories. In addition, GunBroker helps provide the outdoors community with a state and federal compliant solution that connects buyers with sellers across the United States with local federally-licensed firearm dealers. The Marketplace allows our base of approximately 8.8 million users to follow ownership policies and regulations through our network of over 32,000 federally licensed firearms dealers as transfer agents. The nature and operation of the Marketplace as an online auction and sales platform also affords our Company a view into the total domestic market for the purpose of understanding sales trends at a granular level across all elements of the outdoor and sports shooting space.
Prior to the Transaction (defined below), our Ammunition segment manufactured small arms ammunition and their components for the commercial, military, and law enforcement communities. Our manufacturing operations were based out of Manitowoc, Wisconsin. We emphasized an American heritage by using predominantly American-made components and raw materials in our products that were produced, inspected, and packaged at our facility in Manitowoc, WI.
Sale of Ammunition Segment
During the year ended March 31, 2025, our Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors") initiated a formal review of various strategic alternatives. This review resulted in the unanimous decision to sell the Ammunition segment. On January 20, 2025, after a competitive bidding process, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Olin Winchester, LLC (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to (i) acquire all assets of our business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, distributing and selling ammunition and ammunition components (collectively, the “Ammunition Manufacturing Business”) along with certain assets related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, including the Ammunition Manufacturing Business' dedicated manufacturing facility in Manitowoc, WI and (ii) assume certain liabilities related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, for a gross purchase price of $75.0 million, subject to adjustments for estimated net working capital and real property costs and pro-rations (the “Transaction”). The Transaction closed on April 18, 2025. The net proceeds after all adjustments totaled approximately $42.9 million. On April 21, 2025, the Company changed its name from "AMMO, Inc." to "Outdoor Holding Company." During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Ammunition segment met the held for sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria. For information on discontinued operations, refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements under the caption "Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations" and Note 4, "Discontinued Operations".
Following the Transaction, we continue to operate our online Marketplace business. Unless otherwise noted, disclosures included in this Item 1, Business reflect only our continuing operations. Refer to Note 4, "Discontinued Operations" to the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements for additional details on discontinued operations.
GunBroker Marketplace
GunBroker is a leading online marketplace dedicated to firearms, hunting, shooting and related products. GunBroker does not hold any inventory, except for merchandise bearing its own branding, and instead facilitates transactions between third-party buyers and sellers. All transactions involving firearms are governed by federal and state laws and require the use of licensed firearms dealers, or Federal Firearms License holders (“FFLs”), to ensure legal compliance for transfer and delivery of regulated items. The Marketplace supports a robust compliance framework through access to more than 32,000 active FFLs who assist in the lawful transfer of regulated items. As of March 31, 2026, GunBroker had approximately 8.8 million registered users and averaged 4.43 million daily listings, underscoring its scale and leadership position in the U.S. online marketplace for outdoor and shooting sports products.
Platform Enhancements and Services
During fiscal year 2026, we implemented a range of platform enhancements designed to improve user engagement, expand service offerings, support regulatory compliance, and streamline marketplace transactions. Key enhancements include:
•Master FFL Integration: In November 2025, we initiated integration with the Master FFL platform to enhance our marketplace technology and compliance infrastructure. Master FFL is a comprehensive dealer database and compliance tool that facilitates FFL transfers. This integration is intended to expand access to a broader network of FFL's and to centralize dealer verification within our platform. The system is designed to automate dealer validation, reduce reliance on manual confirmation, and enhance the checkout experience through an integrated FFL selection tool that filters dealers based on transfer capabilities, including specialized licensing. These enhancements are intended to streamline firearm transfer workflow and provide buyers with additional dealer information.
•AI-Powered Listing Tool: In March 2026, we deployed a proprietary AI-powered listing tool to improve seller productivity and listing quality. The tool leverages our historical transaction data and buyer behavior insights to generate standardized and marketplace-optimized product descriptions. Integrated directly into the listing workflow, the system is designed to reduce listing creation time and promote consistency across listings, while maintaining seller oversight through user review and editing.
•User Experience: We enhanced core user interfaces, including the account dashboard, homepage, and item view pages. Improvements include expanded notification capabilities for bidding activity, winning status, and order updates, as well as refinements to category structure and navigation to support browsing, searching, and listing functionality.
•Payments, Shipping and Transaction Support: We expanded integrations with payment and escrow service providers to support a broader range of sellers, including individual and non-merchant participants. We also enhanced shipping functionality and breadth by expanding support for additional product categories, including non-firearm and ammunition shipments, and refining insurance-related requirements. These enhancements are intended to improve transaction flexibility and reliability.
•Compliance and Security Enhancements: We implemented updates designed to support compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including functionality addressing certain state-specific requirements and enhancements to transaction-related disclosures. We also strengthened platform security through the implementation of multi-factor authentication and other measures intended to safeguard user accounts and data. Compliance requirements are subject to change, and our platform will require ongoing modification to address evolving legal and regulatory standards.
•Platform Infrastructure and Performance: We continued to invest in platform reliability and scalability through enhancements to application programming interfaces (APIs), webhooks, system performance, and image processing capabilities. These improvements include expanded notification systems, increased processing efficiency, and general site performance enhancements intended to support increased usage and transaction volume.
•Data, Analytics and Content: We expanded our Outdoor Analytics platform through deeper integration with the marketplace, including centralized reporting, single sign-on functionality, and enhanced analytics capabilities. We also expanded data-driven content offerings, including industry reports and AI-assisted content. These tools are intended to provide users and industry participants with additional insights.
These enhancements reflect our ongoing investment in platform innovation and our strategic commitment to supporting a compliant, scalable, and user‑centric marketplace for both buyer satisfaction and seller success.
Enhance Market Share, Brand Recognition, and Customer Loyalty
We believe that we benefit from brand recognition within the outdoor and shooting sports market, supported by our focus on compliance, platform reliability, and user experience. Our continued investment in seller tools, promotional features, and product offerings is intended to support customer loyalty and repeat engagement across both
buyer and seller communities. However, our ability to maintain or enhance brand recognition and customer loyalty depends on market conditions, competition, and our continued ability to meet user expectations.
Our Growth Strategy
We are focused on expanding market share, strengthening brand recognition, and increasing customer engagement by enhancing user experience and broadening our merchandise and service offerings. Our strategy includes leveraging proprietary marketplace data to identify potential trends and refine our business model. We also evaluate targeted investments and apply disciplined capital allocation to support long-term growth. The success of these initiatives depends on a variety of factors, including market conditions, user adoption, and competitive dynamics.
Marketing
We promote our Marketplace primarily through digital and platform-driven strategies aimed at buyer acquisition and seller growth. Our marketing programs include targeted digital campaigns, social media engagement, email marketing, content development, and search engine optimization.
We also provide sellers with tools to enhance visibility and support conversion, including video-enabled listings, promotional tools, and customizable storefronts. These efforts are supported by advertising solutions such as banner placements, curated product showcases, and manufacturer partnerships.
Our use of platform data and behavioral insights is intended to support personalized marketing and user engagement strategies. The effectiveness of these efforts depends on data quality, user responsiveness, and broader market conditions.
Technology and Product Development
We continue to advance our e-commerce platform in alignment with marketplace practices and operational needs. During fiscal 2026, we:
•initiated integration with the Master FFL platform to enhance dealer verification, expand dealer coverage, and streamline firearm transfer workflows;
•deployed an AI-powered listing tool to support seller productivity and listing quality; and
•continued investments in platform optimization, including enhancements to listing tools, communication systems, image processing, performance, APIs, and analytics.
Our technology teams utilize transaction and behavioral data to support ongoing development efforts, including personalized recommendations, marketing tools, and seller support services. These initiatives are intended to support scalability, compliance, and marketplace functionality.
Customers
We serve a broad ecosystem of customers, including:
•Buyers: Outdoor enthusiasts, sport shooters, collectors, and general consumers of firearms and related products.
•Sellers: Ranging from individual users and small businesses to large-scale retailers and manufacturers.
•Industry Partners: Includes FFLs, manufacturers, media and publishing organizations, and service providers who utilize our tools, analytics platforms, and advertising services to enhance their reach and operational efficiency.
As the platform expands, we are positioned to support not just buyer-seller transactions but also value-added services across advertising, analytics, and market visibility for brands operating in the outdoor category.
Competition
We operate in a highly competitive and evolving e-commerce landscape for firearms, shooting sports, and outdoor gear. Our competition spans across multiple channels and business models:
•Peer-to-Peer Marketplaces: We face direct competition from other online platforms facilitating firearms transactions between individual users, including marketplaces and other models that offer classified
listings and fixed-price selling options.
•E-commerce-Enabled Dealers: Chains and independent firearms dealers increasingly utilize third-party e-commerce platforms or their own integrated point-of-sale websites to list and sell inventory. These dealer-driven platforms compete for traffic, price competitiveness, and fulfillment flexibility, often leveraging in-store pickup or localized promotions as advantages.
•Manufacturers with Direct-to-Consumer Capabilities: Certain manufacturers, including Palmetto State Armory and Freedom Munitions, market and sell their products directly to consumers through their own online storefronts. This model allows them to bypass intermediaries, manage pricing directly, and retain higher margins, presenting competitive pressure on marketplaces.
•Online Auction Transitions: A number of traditional firearms auction houses that previously operated exclusively through in-person bidding events now have established online auction platforms, expanding their reach and introducing new digital buying formats that compete with GunBroker.com’s auction-style model.
Human Capital
As of June 15, 2026, we had a total of 63 employees. Of these employees, 30 were in sales, marketing and customer service, 12 in software engineering, and 21 in various corporate and administrative functions (information technology, accounting, executives, etc.). None of our employees are represented by a union in a collective bargaining arrangement with us. We believe that our employee relations are good.
We foster a collaborative culture focused on accountability, innovation, and market responsiveness. Our workforce strategy emphasizes the attraction and retention of talent aligned with our mission of expanding our reach and relevance. Diversity, professional growth, and performance-driven engagement are central to our human capital philosophy.
Seasonality
We experience moderate seasonality, with elevated sales activity typically occurring in the second half of the fiscal year, driven by the fall hunting season and year-end holidays. Year-over-year trends show consistent performance peaks in the third and fourth quarters, with comparatively softer demand in the spring and summer months, reflecting stable seasonal patterns and supporting the platform’s ability to plan around cyclical purchasing behavior.
Intellectual Property
We rely on a combination of trademarks, trade names, domain names, service marks, and trade secrets to support brand recognition and operational integrity. Our intellectual property portfolio includes proprietary platform features, analytics tools, and content assets that distinguish GunBroker.com in the market. We also license select technologies and content to support compliance and customer experience initiatives.
Regulatory Matters
We operate in a highly regulated industry. There are a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations that affect our business. Because we facilitate the sale of firearms and ammunition, we must ensure compliance with regulations of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (the “ATF”). We must also ensure compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulations, including the National Firearms Act of 1934 (the “NFA”), the Gun Control Act of 1968 (the “GCA”), the Arms Export Control Act of 1976 and provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, applicable to the Firearms and Ammunition Excise Tax, all of which have been amended from time to time. The NFA and GCA require the GunBroker.com platform to facilitate compliant transactions by ensuring that third-party buyers and sellers complete the transfer of regulated items by utilizing dealers that maintain FFLs and perform a pre-transfer background check in connection with each firearm purchase. These background checks are completed using either the FBI-managed National Instant Criminal Background Check System (“NICS”), or a comparable state government-managed system that relies on NICS and any additional information collected by the state. These background check systems either confirm that a transfer can be made, deny the transfer or require that the transfer be delayed for further review, and provide transaction numbers for the proposed transfer. Our sellers are required to record the transaction number on an ATF Form 4473 and retain this form in their records for auditing purposes. We, or our sellers, are also subject to numerous other federal, state and local laws and
regulations regarding firearm sale procedures, record keeping, inspection and reporting, including adhering to minimum age restrictions regarding the acquisition, purchase or possession of firearms or ammunition, residency requirements, applicable waiting periods, importation regulations and regulations pertaining to the shipment and transportation of firearms.
On September 13, 1994, the Federal Assault Weapons Ban (the “AWB”), which prohibited the manufacture of certain firearms defined as “assault weapons,” restricted the sale or possession of “assault weapons,” except those that were manufactured prior to the law’s enactment, and placed restrictions on the sale of new high-capacity ammunition feeding devices. In September 2004, Congress declined to renew the AWB. In the years following the expiration of the AWB, various states and local jurisdictions, including California, Colorado, New York and Washington (states in which we operate), have adopted their own versions of the AWB or high capacity ammunition feeding device restrictions, some of which apply to the products our sellers may hold for sale in other states. If a statute similar to the AWB were to be enacted or re-enacted at the federal level, it would impact our ability to facilitate the sale of certain products. Additionally, state and local governments have enacted laws and regulations that place additional restrictions on the manufacture, transfer, sale, purchase, possession and use of firearms, ammunition and shooting-related products. For example, several states, such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Virginia and Washington have enacted laws and regulations that are more restrictive than federal laws and regulations that limit access to and sale of certain firearms and ammunition. California, Connecticut and New York impose mandatory screening of ammunition purchases. Some other states, such as Florida, Washington, and Colorado require the presentation of a firearms ownership identification card or permit in order to acquire ammunition products and have passed legislation that, among other things, raises the minimum age to purchase certain firearms to 21 from 18 and imposes a multi-day waiting period on all gun purchases. California also raised the minimum age to purchase certain firearms to 21 and enacted several restrictions, including background checks on ammunition sales. Some states prohibit the sale of guns without internal or external locking mechanisms. Several states and the United States Congress have introduced microstamping legislation (that is, engraving the handgun’s serial number on the firing pin of new handguns) for certain firearms. Other state or local governmental entities may also explore similar legislative or regulatory initiatives that may further restrict the manufacture, sale, purchase, possession or use of firearms, ammunition and shooting-related products. We must ensure that our platform complies with these regulations. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with the terms of such regulations and that we have no liabilities under such laws that we expect could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. State, local, and federal laws and regulations relating to products for sale on our platform may change, sometimes significantly, as a result of political, economic or social events.
Our e-commerce business is subject to the Mail or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule and related regulations promulgated by the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”). FTC regulations, in general, govern the solicitation of orders, the information provided to prospective customers and the timeliness of shipments and refunds. In addition, the FTC has established guidelines for advertising and labeling many of the products for sale on our e-commerce platform. We are also subject to a variety of state laws and regulations relating to, among other things, advertising and product restrictions. Some of these laws prohibit or limit the sale, in certain states and locations, of certain items. We administer various restriction codes and other software tools to prevent the sale of such jurisdictionally restricted items. Additionally, we are required to ensure compliance with federal and state laws governing the secure shipment of regulated items.
We believe current laws have not materially impacted our platform usage; however, changes in regulation or consumer sentiment may affect future operations. We continuously monitor legal developments and maintain policies to ensure adherence to applicable laws.
Data Privacy
In the ordinary course of business, we collect, receive, store, process, generate, use, transfer, disclose, make accessible, protect, secure, dispose of, transmit, and share (collectively, “process”) personal data, such as consumer information. Accordingly, we are subject to numerous data privacy and security obligations, including federal, state, and local laws, regulations, guidance, industry standards, external and internal privacy and security policies, contractual requirements and other obligations related to data privacy and security. These frameworks are evolving and may impose potentially conflicting obligations. Such obligations may include, without limitation, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”), industry standards, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (“PCI DSS”). The CCPA is an example of the increasingly stringent
and evolving regulatory frameworks related to personal data processing that may increase our compliance obligations and exposure for any noncompliance. For example, the CCPA applies to personal data of consumers, business representative, and employees who are California residents, imposes specific obligations on covered businesses, provides for fines and allows private litigants affected by certain data breaches to recover significant statutory damages. In addition, numerous other U.S. states have enacted comprehensive data privacy laws, and similar laws are being considered at the federal, state, and local levels.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The risk factors noted in this section and other factors noted throughout this Form 10-K, including those risks identified in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” describe examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those included in this Form 10-K
Risk Related to Our Business Operations
Our business, financial performance, and growth depends on our ability to attract and retain an active and engaged community of buyers and sellers on our e-commerce platform.
Our financial performance has been and will continue to be significantly determined by our success in attracting and retaining active buyers and active sellers on the GunBroker Marketplace. Our ability to attract and retain buyers and sellers is impacted by a variety of factors, including customer experience, platform usability and brand perception, as well as external influences such as the political environment, regulation and economic conditions.
If buyers do not find our platform appealing, for example, because of a negative experience, inadequate customer service, dissatisfaction with FFL transfer fees or marketplace fees, lack of buyer-friendly features, lack of desirable product listings, lack of product listing variety, lack of competitive shipping charges, delayed shipping times, or other factors, they may make fewer purchases and they may not refer others to us. Likewise, if sellers are dissatisfied with their experience on our platform, or feel they have more attractive alternatives, they may stop listing items in our Marketplace and using our services and may stop referring others to us, which could negatively impact our financial performance. Our brand and reputation are critical to our success, as they influence our ability to attract and retain buyers and sellers. User engagement may be impacted by factors including user experience, platform functionality, pricing, customer service, product availability, shipping costs, and competition. If buyers or sellers are dissatisfied or perceive more attractive alternatives, they may reduce activity or leave our platform.
In addition, GunBroker’s revenue is concentrated in our most active buyers and sellers. If we lose a significant number of buyers or sellers, or our buyers or sellers do not maintain their level of activity for any reason, our financial performance would be harmed. Even if we are able to attract new buyers and sellers to replace the ones that we may lose, we may not be able to do so at comparable levels, they may not maintain the same level of activity, and the revenue generated from new buyers and sellers may not be as high as the revenue generated from the ones who leave, or reduce their activity level on our Marketplace. If we are unable to attract and retain buyers and sellers, or our buyers or sellers do not maintain their level of activity, our business and financial performance could be harmed.
Furthermore, the demand for the products listed in our Marketplace is dependent on consumer preferences and available discretionary spending, which can and do change quickly. A shift in consumer interests away from outdoor sports, hunting, sport shooting or firearms could also make it more difficult to attract new buyers and sellers. Under any of these circumstances, we may have difficulty attracting new buyers and sellers without incurring additional expense. In addition, a change in applicable federal or state law and restrictions that prohibits GunBroker from providing its facilitative auction platform services would have a direct substantial financial impact on our operations that would cause an adverse effect on the continuity of our operations.
Our recent platform enhancements may not achieve their intended benefits and could introduce additional operational, technological, and regulatory risks.
During fiscal year 2026, we implemented a range of enhancements across the GunBroker Marketplace, including integration with Master FFL, a third-party dealer verification platform, deployment of a proprietary AI-powered listing tool, expanded payment, escrow, and shipping integrations, compliance and security updates, platform infrastructure and performance improvements, and expansion of our Outdoor Analytics data and content offerings. While these enhancements reflect our ongoing investment in platform functionality and scalability, these initiatives may not function as intended, achieve widespread user adoption, or result in anticipated improvements to our financial or operational performance. If these enhancements fail to perform as expected, do not achieve adequate adoption, or introduce unforeseen technical or operational issues, customer satisfaction with their experience on our platform could be adversely affected, resulting in harm to our business and financial performance.
Several of these enhancements depend on third-party data, services, and participation, and are subject to risks outside of our direct control. For example, the effectiveness of our Master FFL integration relies on the accuracy and
timeliness of third-party dealer data, the willingness of federally licensed firearm dealers to participate, and our ability to adapt to evolving regulatory requirements governing firearm transfers. The success of our AI-powered listing tool depends on the quality and relevance of underlying data and may not consistently produce accurate or complete product descriptions. Inaccurate or misleading AI-generated content could result in buyer dissatisfaction, reputational harm, or potential liability. Furthermore, our compliance and security enhancements, including state-specific functionality and multi-factor authentication, are designed to support our regulatory obligations and safeguard user data; however, compliance requirements are subject to frequent change, and we may be unable to keep pace with evolving legal and regulatory standards. Any failure or perceived failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could subject us to enforcement actions, fines, litigation, or reputational harm, any of which could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations. Additionally, while the Master FFL integration will be accretive to sales, the cost of the service will necessarily result some minimal dilution of our gross margin.
Substantial competition may harm our business.
We operate in a highly competitive and evolving market for firearms, shooting sports, and outdoor gear. Our competitors, some of which are well-established brands with greater resources and larger customer bases than our own, provide similar products to consumers and span across multiple channels and business models. We currently and potentially compete with a wide variety of peer-to-peer marketplaces, e-commerce-enabled dealers, manufacturers with direct-to-consumer capabilities, online auction platforms from traditional firearms auction houses, big box retailers and brick and mortar stores.
We compete as a two-sided, peer-to-peer marketplace, and we must attract both buyers and sellers to use our platform. Consumers who purchase products through us have many alternatives, and we face increased competitive pressure online and offline. Competitors with an e-commerce presence may increase the expected level of e-commerce service in a variety of aspects such as improved user experience, greater ease of buying goods, lower (or no) shipping costs, faster shipping times and more favorable return policies. Manufacturers with direct-to-consumer capabilities, such as Palmetto State Armory, Ammunition Depot, Vista Outdoors, and Freedom Munitions, have the ability to bypass intermediaries, manage pricing directly, and retain higher margins. We may not be able to successfully expand our e-commerce business to respond to shifting consumer traffic patterns and direct-to-consumer buying trends. In addition, we compete with brick and mortar and big box retailers that provide alternatives to e-commerce. As e-commerce evolves, offline retailers such as Sportsman’s Warehouse, Bass Pro Shops, Cabela’s, and Academy Sports have the ability to attract our customers through incentives such as in-store pick up and no FFL transfer fees.
Competitors with other revenue sources or greater resources may also be able to devote more resources to marketing and promotional campaigns and buyer acquisition, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote more resources to website, mobile platforms and applications and systems development than we can. Other competitors may find ways to offer faster and/or free shipping, same-day delivery, more favorable return policies and other superior transaction-related services that improve the user experience on their sites, which could be impractical or inefficient for our sellers to match. We face competitive pressure to offer promotional discounts, which could impact our gross margin and increase our marketing expenses or overhead. We are limited, however, in our ability to fully respond to competitor price discounting because we cannot market our products at prices that may produce adverse relationships with our customers that operate brick and mortar locations as they may perceive themselves to be at a disadvantage based on lower e-commerce pricing to end consumers.
We may not be able to compete effectively with and adapt to changes made by our competitors, and our business, financial performance and ability to attract and retain an active and engaged community of buyers and sellers could suffer.
Changes to our policies to protect buyers and sellers could increase our costs and loss rate, and failure to manage such programs effectively can result in harm to our reputation.
We maintain policies intended to compensate users who believe that they have not received the item that they purchased or have received an item different from what was described. We expect to continue to receive communications from users requesting reimbursement or threatening or commencing legal action against us if no reimbursement is made. Litigation, legislation, or regulation involving liability for any seller fraud or non-performance could result in increased costs of doing business, lead to adverse judgments or settlements or otherwise harm our business. In addition, affected users may complain to regulatory agencies that could take action against us, including imposing fines or seeking injunctions.
Seasonality and weather conditions may cause our operating results to vary from quarter to quarter.
Because many of our products are used for seasonal outdoor sporting activities, our operating results may be significantly impacted by unseasonable weather conditions. Accordingly, our operating results could suffer when weather patterns do not conform to seasonal norms.
Shipments of firearms and ammunition for hunting are highest during the months of June through September to meet consumer demand for the fall hunting season and holidays. The seasonality of our sales may change in the future. Seasonal variations in our operating results may reduce our cash on hand, increase our inventory levels, and extend our accounts receivable collection periods. This in turn may cause us to increase our debt levels and interest expense to fund our working capital requirements.
Our share repurchase program may not be fully executed or may be suspended or terminated at any time, and the program could affect the market price of our common stock.
In January 2026, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $15.0 million of shares of our common stock from time to time in either an approved 10b5-1 or 10b-18 plan for a period of 12 months. The timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including the knowledge of material non-public information, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock, our financial performance, regulatory requirements, and other business considerations. The program does not obligate us to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time. The existence of the repurchase program could create volatility in the market price of our common stock or lead investors to expect future repurchases that may not occur. Any failure to meet such expectations could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Risks Related to Technology, Security, and Data
Breaches of our information systems could adversely affect our reputation, disrupt our operations, and result in increased costs and loss of sales.
There have been an increasing number of cybersecurity incidents affecting companies around the world, which have caused operational failures or compromised sensitive corporate data. Although we do not believe that our systems are at a greater risk of cybersecurity incidents than other similar organizations, any such cybersecurity incidents may result in the loss or compromise of customer, financial, or operational data, disruption of billing, collections, or normal operating activities, disruption of electronic monitoring and control of operational systems, and delays in financial reporting and other management functions.
A growing percentage of cyberattacks are designed to exploit legitimate credentials and identity systems rather than software vulnerabilities. Threat actors increasingly use techniques such as phishing, credential harvesting, session hijacking, and token theft to gain unauthorized access to user accounts. Once authenticated, attackers may operate within systems using valid credentials, making detection more difficult and allowing them to bypass traditional security controls that are designed to prevent unauthorized access at the perimeter. The organization maintains strict but useable access control infrastructure for end users and ever seeks to increase scrutiny and limit fraudulent activity. The organization also employs various methods for detecting and remediating fraudulent access.
Although we have integrated a variety of processes, technologies, and controls to assist in our efforts to assess, identify, and manage material cybersecurity-related risks, these efforts are not exhaustive, and our efforts may not be adequate to prevent or detect service interruption, system failure, data loss or theft, or other material adverse consequences, directly or through our vendors. Additionally, these measures have not always been in the past, and in the future may not be, sufficient to prevent or detect a cyberattack, system failure, or security breach particularly given the increasingly sophisticated tools and methods used by hackers, state actors, organized cyber criminals, and cyber terrorists. Possible impacts associated with a cybersecurity incident may include, among others, remediation costs related to lost, stolen, or compromised data, repairs to data processing systems, increased cybersecurity protection costs, reputation damage, and adverse effects on our compliance with applicable privacy and other laws and regulations. Geopolitical tensions and evolving global conflicts may increase the frequency, sophistication, and severity of cyber threats, including those originating from nation-state actors and affiliated groups. These actors are often well-resourced, highly persistent, and capable of conducting advanced cyber operations, including espionage, data exfiltration, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, and efforts to disrupt or degrade critical infrastructure and commercial platforms. In periods of heightened geopolitical instability, such actors may broaden their targets to include private sector organizations, particularly those operating digital platforms and marketplaces.
If we experience, or are perceived to experience, security breaches that result in Marketplace performance or availability problems or the loss, compromise or unauthorized disclosure of personal data or other sensitive information, or if we fail to respond appropriately to any security breaches that we may experience, or are perceived to do so, people may become unwilling to provide us the information necessary to set up an account with us to become a new seller or buyer. Existing sellers and buyers may also stop listing new items for sale on the Marketplace, decrease their purchases, or close their accounts altogether. We could also face damage to our reputation, potential liability, regulatory investigations in multiple jurisdictions, and costly remediation efforts and litigation, which may not be adequately covered by, and which may impact our future access to, insurance. Any of these results could harm our growth prospects, our business, and our reputation for maintaining a trusted Marketplace.
In addition, the costs and effort to respond to a security breach and/or to mitigate any security vulnerabilities that may be identified could be significant, our efforts to address these problems may not be successful, and these problems could result in unexpected interruptions, delays, cessation of service, negative publicity, negative seller or buyer sentiment, and other harm to our business and our competitive position. We could be required to fundamentally change our business activities and practices in response to a security breach or related regulatory actions or litigation, which would have an adverse effect on our business.
We and the third parties with whom we work are subject to stringent and evolving obligations related to data privacy and security, and our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations (or such failure by the third parties with whom we work) could lead to adverse business consequences.
In the ordinary course of business, we process personal data and other sensitive information, including proprietary and confidential business data, trade secrets, intellectual property, sensitive third-party data, business plans, transactions, and financial information (collectively, sensitive data). These processing activities subject us to numerous data privacy and security obligations, such as various laws, regulations, guidance, industry standards, external and internal privacy and security policies, contractual requirements, and other obligations relating to data privacy and security.
In the United States, federal, state, and local governments have enacted numerous data privacy and security laws, including data breach notification laws, personal data privacy laws, consumer protection laws (e.g., Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act), and other similar laws (e.g., wiretapping laws). Numerous U.S. states have enacted comprehensive privacy laws that impose certain obligations on covered businesses, including providing specific disclosures in privacy notices and affording residents with certain rights concerning their personal data. As applicable, such rights include the right to access, correct, or delete certain personal data, and to opt-out of certain data processing activities, such as targeted advertising, profiling, and automated decision-making. The exercise of these rights may impact our business and ability to provide our products and services. Certain states also impose stricter requirements for processing certain personal data, including sensitive information, such as conducting data privacy impact assessments. These state laws allow for statutory fines for noncompliance. For example, the CCPA imposes obligations on covered businesses regarding their processing of personal data and provides for fines and a private right of action for certain data breaches. Similar laws are being considered in several other states, as well as at the federal and local levels, and we expect more states to pass similar laws in the future.
Additionally, under various privacy laws and other obligations, we may be required to obtain certain consents to process personal data. Our inability or failure to do so could result in adverse consequences, such as threats of class-action litigation alleging violations of wiretapping laws. In addition to data privacy and security laws, we are contractually subject to industry standards adopted by industry groups, such as the PCI DSS, and we are, and may become in the future subject to such obligations. We rely on vendors to process payment card data, and those vendors are subject to PCI DSS, and our business may be negatively affected if our vendors are fined or suffer other consequences as a result of PCI DSS noncompliance.
We are also bound by other contractual obligations related to data privacy and security, and our efforts to comply with such obligations may not be successful. We publish privacy policies, marketing materials, and other statements concerning data privacy and security. Regulators in the United States are increasingly scrutinizing these statements, and if these are found to be deficient, lacking in transparency, deceptive, unfair, misleading, or misrepresentative of our practices, we may be subject to investigation, enforcement actions by regulators, or other adverse consequences.
Obligations related to data privacy and security (and consumers’ data privacy expectations) are quickly changing, becoming increasingly stringent, creating regulatory uncertainty, and may be subject to differing
applications and interpretations. Preparing for and complying with these obligations requires us to devote significant resources and may necessitate changes to our services, information technologies, systems, and practices and to those of any third parties that process personal data on our behalf.
We may at times be unsuccessful (or be perceived to have been unsuccessful) in our efforts to comply with our data privacy and security obligations. Moreover, despite our efforts, our personnel or third parties with whom we work may be unsuccessful in complying with such obligations, which could negatively impact our business operations. If we or the third parties with whom we work are unsuccessful, or are perceived to have been unsuccessful, to address or comply with applicable data privacy and security obligations, we could face significant consequences, including but not limited to: government enforcement actions (e.g., investigations, fines, penalties, audits, inspections, and similar); litigation (including class-action claims); additional reporting requirements and/or oversight; bans on processing personal data and orders to destroy or not use personal data. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, or financial condition, including but not limited to: loss of customers; inability to process personal data or to operate in certain jurisdictions limited ability to develop or commercialize our products; expenditure of time and resources to defend any claim or inquiry; adverse publicity; or substantial changes to our business model or operations.
A failure of our information technology systems, or an interruption in their operation due to internal or external factors including cyberattacks, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our operations depend on our ability to protect our information systems, computer equipment, and information databases from systems failures. We rely on our information technology systems generally to manage the day-to-day operations of our business, operate the Marketplace, manage relationships with our customers, facilitate customer orders, and maintain our financial and accounting records.
Failure of our information technology systems could be caused by internal or external events, such as incursions by intruders or hackers, computer viruses, cyber-attacks, break-ins, intentional or accidental actions or inaction by employees or others with authorized access to our networks, failures in hardware or software, or power or telecommunication fluctuations or failures.
Our information technology systems rely on internal technology, along with cloud services and software provided by our third-party service providers. In the event of a cyber-related incident or other service disruption, even partial unavailability of our systems could impair our ability to serve our customers, manage transactions, or operate the Marketplace. We have implemented disaster recovery mechanisms, including systems to back up key data and production systems, but these systems may be inadequate or incomplete. For example, these disaster recovery systems may be susceptible to cyber-related events if insufficiently separated from primary systems, not comprehensive, or not at a scale sufficient to replace our primary systems. Insufficient production and disaster recovery systems could, in the event of a cyber-related incident, harm our growth prospects, our business, and our reputation for maintaining a trusted marketplace.
We rely on third-party service providers to perform services, including, credit card processing, payment disbursements, identity verification, and fraud analysis and detection. As a result, we are subject to a number of risks related to our dependence on third- party service providers. If any or some of these service providers fail to perform adequately or if any such service provider were to terminate or modify its relationship with us unexpectedly, our sellers’ ability to use the Marketplace to receive orders or payments could be adversely affected, which could increase our costs, drive sellers away from our marketplaces, result in potential legal liability, and harm our business. In addition, we and our third-party service providers may experience service outages from time to time that could adversely impact payments made on our platform. Additionally, any unexpected termination or modification of those third-party services could lead to a lapse in the effectiveness of certain fraud prevention and detection tools.
Our third-party service providers may increase the fees they charge us in the future, which would increase our operating expenses. This could, in turn, require us to increase the fees we charge and cause some buyers or sellers to reduce purchases or listings on the Marketplace or to leave our platform altogether by closing their accounts.
We also rely on the security practices of our third-party service providers, which may be outside of our direct control. Our third-party service providers may not have adequate security and privacy controls, may not properly exercise their compliance, regulatory or notification requirements, including as to personal data, or may not have the resources to properly respond to an incident. The failure of our or our third-party service providers’ information technology systems to perform as anticipated for any reason or any significant breach of security could disrupt our
business and result in numerous adverse consequences, including reduced effectiveness and efficiency of operations, increased costs, or loss of important information, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Any technology and information security processes and disaster recovery plans we use to mitigate our risk to these vulnerabilities may not be adequate to ensure that our operations will not be disrupted should such an event occur.
Generative artificial intelligence may have a significant impact on our business.
We expect generative artificial intelligence (“Gen AI”) to have a significant impact on the future of e-commerce, as artificial intelligence technologies become increasingly important for consumers buying and selling goods online. If we are unable to identify appropriate Gen AI providers and artificial intelligence technologies, or if we fail to utilize those technologies or develop our own technologies, our business may be harmed. For example, consumers may increasingly search for products using chatbots, virtual assistants or other Gen AI technologies powered by large language models instead of using traditional search engines. If current and future artificial intelligence technologies do not send referrals to GunBroker at the rate of traditional search engines for any reason, the amount of buyer and seller traffic using our platform could decrease, which could negatively impact our business and results of operations.
In addition, our use of Gen AI technologies may create or increase operational, legal, reputational, and regulatory risks. Gen AI systems, including chatbots, virtual assistants, automated customer service tools, recommendation engines, content moderation tools, and other artificial intelligence-enabled features, may generate inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, biased, discriminatory, offensive, or otherwise harmful outputs. For example, a Gen AI-enabled chatbot or other automated tool could provide incorrect advice or information to a buyer, seller, or other user; fail to identify or appropriately escalate a safety, compliance, fraud, or legal issue; participate in or contribute to a transaction, communication, or other event that results in injury, financial loss, regulatory scrutiny, or other liability; or generate content that is perceived as racist, sexist, discriminatory, defamatory, harassing, or otherwise offensive. Even where such outputs are unintended, are caused by third-party AI providers, or are based on inaccurate, incomplete, or biased data inputs, we may face claims, investigations, enforcement actions, user complaints, reputational harm, or other liabilities arising from the use or perceived use of such technologies. We may also incur significant costs to monitor, test, audit, restrict, remediate, or defend against issues arising from Gen AI systems, and our efforts may not be effective in preventing harm or liability.
Threat actors are increasingly leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance the scale, speed, and sophistication of cyberattacks. These technologies may be used to automate aspects of vulnerability discovery by analyzing publicly available code, system configurations, and application behaviors to identify potential weaknesses more efficiently than traditional manual methods. Reliance on traditional incident response techniques may become less effective as AI-enabled exploitation techniques evolve and accelerate. We are constantly evaluating the impact of generative systems against our products and services, and endeavor to keep pace with AI security trends and weaknesses as we seek to integrate them into our environments.
Operations and continued development of our payments system and financial services offerings require ongoing investment, are subject to evolving laws, regulations, rules, and standards, and involve risk, including risks related to our dependence on third-party providers.
We have invested and plan to continue to invest internal resources into our payments tools in order to maintain existing availability, expand into additional markets and offer new payment methods and other types of financial services to our buyers and sellers. If we fail to invest adequate resources into payments on our platform, or if our investment efforts are unsuccessful, unreliable or result in system failure, our payments and financial services may not function properly or keep pace with competitive offerings, which could negatively impact their usage and our platform. Future errors, failures or outages could cause our buyers and sellers to lose confidence in our payments system and could cause them to cease using our Marketplace.
If we transition to new third-party payment service providers for any reason, we may be required to invest significant financial and personnel resources to support such transition or could be unable to find a suitable replacement service provider. As we offer new payment methods and financial services to our sellers and buyers, we are now subject to additional regulations and compliance requirements, and exposed to heightened fraud and regulatory risk, which could lead to an increase in our operating expenses.
Payments and other financial services are governed by complex and continuously evolving laws and regulations that are subject to change and vary across different jurisdictions in the United States. As a result, we are
required to spend significant time and effort to determine whether various licensing and registration laws as well as privacy and secrecy laws relating to payments and other financial services we offer apply to us and to comply with applicable laws and licensing and registration regulations. In addition, we may be unable to obtain or retain any necessary licenses or registrations. Any failure or claim of failure by us or our third-party service providers to comply with applicable laws and regulations relating to payments or financial services could require us to expend significant resources, result in liability, limit or preclude our ability to enter or continue to operate in certain markets and harm our reputation. In addition, changes in payment regulations, or other financial regulation, including changes to the credit or debit card interchange rates, could adversely affect payments on our platform and make our payments systems less profitable.
Further, we are indirectly subject to payment card association operating rules and certification requirements pursuant to agreements with our third-party payment processors. These rules and requirements, including the PCI DSS and rules governing electronic funds transfers, are subject to change or reinterpretation, making it difficult for us to comply. Any failure to comply with these rules and certification requirements could impact our ability to meet our contractual obligations to our third-party payment processors and could result in potential fines. In addition, changes in these rules and requirements, including any change in our designation by major payment card providers, could require a change in our business operations and could result in limitations on or loss of our ability to accept payment cards or other forms of payment, any of which could negatively impact our business. Such changes could also increase our costs of compliance, which could lead to increased fees for us or our sellers and adversely affect payments on our platform or usage of our payments services and platform.
Our third-party payments system may be susceptible to illegal uses, including money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud and payments to sanctioned parties. If our compliance program and internal controls to limit such illegal activity are ineffective, government authorities could bring legal action against us or our third-party payments system provider or otherwise suspend our ability to offer payments or financial services.
Risks Related to Financial Reporting and Controls
We are and may continue to be subject to litigation arising from the restatement of our financial statements and related matters, which could result in significant judgments, settlements, penalties, and legal expenses.
The restatement of our previously issued financial statements, along with the findings of the investigations conducted by a special committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Special Committee Investigation”) and the SEC’s Division of Enforcement (the “SEC Investigation”), exposes us to various legal challenges. These challenges could include securities class action lawsuits and stockholder derivative suits. Such proceedings may allege violations of federal securities laws, deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures, or other corporate governance issues. Defending against these matters is time-consuming and costly and will divert management's attention from our business operations. Adverse outcomes could result in substantial monetary damages, penalties, injunctive, or other relief, and even if resolved favorably, we may incur significant legal expenses. These potential liabilities and costs could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We may be required to indemnify our current and former directors, officers and employees in connection with litigation and other actions which could result in significant legal expenses and other costs to us.
Our corporate governance documents and applicable indemnification agreements require us to defend and indemnify our current and former directors and officers, and certain employees and contractors against enumerated liabilities and expenses incurred as a result of legal proceedings and potential litigation arising out of the matters related to the restatement. As a result, we may be obligated to advance and ultimately pay substantial legal costs, settlement amounts, or judgments on behalf of these individuals. These indemnification obligations could significantly increase our legal expenses and could materially adversely affect our financial condition and cash flow.
Our reputation may be harmed by the Special Committee Investigation, the SEC Investigation, and the restatement, making it more difficult to attract business opportunities, employees, and investors.
The restatement of our financial statements, SEC Investigation into historical matters, related litigation, or negative publicity could damage our reputation with investors, customers, suppliers, business partners, and regulators. Any reputational harm could adversely affect our relationships with existing and prospective stakeholders, diminish our ability to attract and retain key personnel, reduce the confidence of investors in our company, and limit our access to capital markets. Reputational damage may also make it more difficult to pursue business opportunities, negotiate
favorable terms in future commercial relationships, and achieve our strategic objectives, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
Investors may view our historical financial statements as less reliable following the restatement, which could adversely effect our access to capital markets and our stock price.
As a result of the restatement of our historical financial statements and the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, investors may view our historical financial information as less reliable. This perception could impact investor confidence, adversely affect the market price of our securities, impair our ability to access capital markets, and result in greater difficulty in achieving strategic or financial objectives.
We previously identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and our remediation efforts may not be fully effective.
As a public company, we are required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Section 404 requires us to include management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the fiscal year in this Form 10-K. This report must also include disclosure of any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that we have identified.
While we completed remediation efforts and did not identify any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of the filing of this Form 10-K, such efforts including the implementation of new policies, procedures, and controls, may not be successful. Additional material weaknesses may be identified in the future. Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in additional errors or misstatements in our financial statements, impair our ability to accurately and timely report financial results, harm our reputation and investor confidence, limit our ability to access capital markets, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Effective internal control over financial reporting and related controls and procedures are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we could be subject to regulatory action or other substantial litigation and our business and operating results could be materially harmed.
Risks Related to Legal or Regulatory Matters
If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may lose a competitive advantage or incur substantial litigation costs to protect our rights.
Our future success depends upon our proprietary technology. Our protective measures, including patent and trade secret protection, may prove inadequate to protect our proprietary rights. The right to stop others from misusing our trademarks, service marks, and patents in commerce depends to some extent on our ability to show evidence of enforcement of our rights against such misuse in commerce. Our efforts to stop improper use, if insufficient, may lead to loss of trademark and service mark rights, brand loyalty, and notoriety among our customers and prospective customers. The scope of any patent that we have or may obtain may not prevent others from developing and selling competing products. The validity and breadth of claims covered in technology patents involve complex legal and factual questions, and the resolution of such claims may be highly uncertain, and expensive. In addition, our patents may be held invalid upon challenge, or others may claim rights in or ownership of our patents.
We may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims, which could cause us to incur litigation costs and divert management attention from our business.
Any intellectual property infringement claims against us, with or without merit, could be costly and time-consuming to defend and divert our management’s attention from our business. If our products were found to infringe a third party’s proprietary rights, we could be required to enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements to be able to sell our products. Royalty and licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.
We are engaged in legal proceedings that could cause us to incur unforeseen expenses and could occupy a significant amount of our management’s time and attention.
We have been and currently remain engaged in legal proceedings that have caused the Company to dedicate significant resources to defend. Litigation or claims that may be made against the Company or its officers or directors, from time to time, could negatively affect our business, operations, or financial position. As we grow, we may see a rise in the number of litigation matters against us. These matters may include employment and labor claims, as well as consumer and securities class actions, each of which are typically expensive and time consuming to defend.
Litigation and other disputes could cause us to incur unforeseen expenses and otherwise occupy a significant amount of our management’s time and attention, any of which could negatively affect our business operations and financial position.
Current and future government regulations, particularly regulations relating to the sale of firearms and ammunition, may negatively impact the demand for products held for sale on our platform.
We operate in a complex regulatory and legal environment that could negatively impact the demand for our products and services and expose us to compliance and litigation risks, which could materially affect our operations and financial results. We are required to comply with a wide variety of laws, rules, and regulations that impose significant compliance requirements on our business, and more restrictive laws, rules and regulations may be adopted in the future. We are subject to the rules and regulations of the ATF, particularly with FFL compliance. If we fail to comply with ATF rules and regulations, the ATF may limit our growth or business activities, levy fines against us or revoke our license to do business. Our business and the business of all marketers of ammunition and firearms are also subject to numerous federal, state, local, and foreign laws, regulations, and protocols.
These laws may, and do, change, sometimes significantly, as a result of political, economic or social events. For instance, Colorado and Washington passed legislation that, among other things, raises the minimum age to purchase certain firearms from 18 to 21 and imposes multi-day waiting period on gun purchases. In addition, Florida has also raised the minimum age for firearms purchases to 21 with some exceptions, and in November 2022, the State of Oregon passed a ballot measure that bans purchases of magazines with a capacity of over ten rounds, and that, among other things, imposes complex permitting and training requirements for the purchases of firearms.
Over the past several years, bills have been introduced in the United States Congress that would restrict or prohibit the manufacture, transfer, importation or sale of certain calibers of handgun ammunition, impose a tax and import controls on bullets designed to penetrate bullet-proof vests, impose a special occupational tax and registration requirements on manufacturers of handgun ammunition and increase the tax on handgun ammunition in certain calibers. Because we carry these products, such legislation could, depending on its scope, materially harm sales on the Marketplace.
Additionally, state and local governments have proposed laws and regulations that, if enacted, would place additional restrictions on the manufacture, transfer, sale, purchase, acquisition, possession and use of firearms, ammunition and shooting-related products. For example, in response to mass shootings and other incidents in the United States, several states, such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Virginia and Washington have enacted laws and regulations that limit access to and sale of certain firearms in ways more restrictive than federal laws. Other state or local governmental entities may continue to explore similar legislative or regulatory restrictions that could prohibit the manufacture, sale, purchase, possession or use of firearms and ammunition. In California, Connecticut and New York, mandatory screening of ammunition purchases is now required, as well as electronic record keeping that will be audited by the state. In addition, several states and the United States Congress have introduced microstamping legislation (that is, engraving the handgun’s serial number on the firing pin of new handguns) for certain firearms. Lastly, some states prohibit the sale of firearms without internal or external locking mechanisms, and several states are considering mandating certain design features on safety grounds, most of which would be applicable only to handguns. Other state or local governmental entities may also explore similar legislative or regulatory initiatives that may further restrict the manufacture, sale, purchase, acquisition, possession or use of firearms, ammunition and shooting-related products.
The regulation of firearms, ammunition and shooting-related products may even become more restrictive in the future. Changes in these laws and regulations or additional regulations, particularly new laws or increased regulations regarding sales and ownership of firearms and ammunition, could cause the demand for and sales of products held for sale on our platform to decrease and could materially adversely impact our revenue and profitability. Sales of firearms represent a significant percentage of our transaction-fee based revenue. Substantial reduction in sales
on our platform due to the establishment of new regulations could harm our operating results. Moreover, complying with increased or changed regulations could cause our operating expenses to increase.
Changes in government policies and firearms legislation could adversely affect our financial results.
The sale, purchase, ownership, and use of firearms are subject to numerous and varied federal, state, and local governmental regulations. Federal laws governing firearms include the National Firearms Act, the Federal Firearms Act, the Arms Export Control Act, and the Gun Control Act of 1968. These laws generally govern the manufacture, import, export, sale, and possession of firearms and ammunition.
Currently, the federal legislature and several state legislatures are considering additional legislation relating to the regulation of firearms and ammunition. These proposed bills are extremely varied. If enacted, such legislation could effectively ban or severely limit the sale of affected firearms and ammunition. In addition, if such restrictions are enacted and are incongruent, we could find it difficult, expensive, or even practically impossible to comply with them, which could impede new product development and the distribution of existing products. We cannot assure you that the regulation of our business activities will not become more restrictive in the future and that any such restriction will not have a material adverse effect on our business.
Any adverse change to the interpretations of the Second Amendment (Right to Bear Arms) could impact our ability to conduct business by restricting the ownership and use of firearms in the United States.
General Risk Factors
Our operating results may experience significant fluctuations.
Many factors can contribute to significant fluctuations in our results of operations. These factors include the following:
•the cyclicality of the markets we serve;
•the timing and size of new orders;
•the cancellation of existing orders;
•the volume of orders relative to our capacity;
•product introductions and market acceptance of new products or new generations of products;
•timing of expenses in anticipation of future orders;
•availability of production capacity;
•changes in cost and availability of labor and raw materials;
•timely delivery of products to customers;
•pricing and availability of competitive products;
•new product introduction costs;
•changes in the amount or timing of operating expenses;
•introduction of new technologies into the markets we serve;
•pressures on reducing selling prices;
•excess inventory levels;
•our success in serving new markets;
•adverse publicity regarding the safety, performance, and use of our products;
•the institution and adverse outcome of any litigation;
•political, economic, or regulatory developments;
•changes in economic conditions; and
•natural and manmade disasters, including health emergencies such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic.
As a result of these and other factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations may not be meaningful in the short term, and our performance in a particular period may not be indicative of our performance in any future period.
We may not be able to secure additional financing on favorable terms, or at all, to meet our future capital needs.
In the future, we may require additional capital to fund the planned expansion of our business and to respond to business opportunities, challenges, potential acquisitions, or unforeseen circumstances. We could encounter unforeseen difficulties that may deplete our capital resources rapidly, which could require us to seek additional financing in the near future. The timing and amount of any additional financing that is required to continue the expansion of our business and the marketing of our products will depend on our ability to improve our operating results and other factors. We may not be able to secure additional debt or equity financing on a timely basis or on favorable terms, or at all. Further, such financing, if obtained, could result in substantial dilution of the equity interests of existing stockholders. If we are unable to secure any necessary additional financing, we may need to delay expansion plans, conserve cash, and reduce operating expenses. There is no assurance that any additional financing will be sufficient, that the financing will be available on terms favorable to us or to existing stockholders and at such times as required, or that we will be able to obtain the additional financing required for the continued operation and growth of our business.
Our charter documents and Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us and discourage a takeover.
Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, and Delaware law contain certain provisions that may have the effect of deterring or discouraging, among other things, a non-negotiated tender or exchange offer for shares of common stock, a proxy contest for control of our company, the assumption of control of our company by a holder of a large block of common stock, and the removal of the management of our company. Such provisions also may have the effect of deterring or discouraging a transaction which might otherwise be beneficial to stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation also authorizes our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, to issue one or more series of preferred stock, which could have voting and conversion rights that adversely affect or dilute the voting power of the holders of common stock. Delaware law also imposes conditions on certain business combination transactions with “interested stockholders.” Further, our Bylaws authorize our Board of Directors to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors, including as a result of newly created directorships. A majority of the remaining directors may elect a successor to fill any vacancies or newly created directorships. Such provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock and impede the ability of the stockholders to replace management.
The elimination of monetary liability against our directors under Delaware law pursuant to our certificate of incorporation and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors and officers under Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers, and employees. We also entered into contractual indemnification obligations under employment agreements with our executive officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage us from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our stockholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and our stockholders.
Our certification of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for actions or proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could discourage claims or limit stockholders’ ability to make a claim against the Company, our directors, officers, and employees.
Our certificate of incorporation states that unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) an action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company, its directors, officers, or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company, its directors, officers, or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine, except for, as to each of (i) through (iv) above, any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within
10 days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction.
These exclusive forum provisions do not apply to claims under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. The exclusive forum provision may discourage claims or limit stockholders’ ability to submit claims in a judicial forum that they find favorable and may create additional costs as a result. If a court were to determine the exclusive forum provision to be inapplicable and unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs in conjunction with our efforts to resolve the dispute in an alternative jurisdiction, which could have a negative impact on our results of operations.
Our performance is influenced by a variety of economic, social, and political factors.
Our performance is influenced by a variety of economic, social, and political factors. In times of economic uncertainty, consumers tend to defer expenditures for discretionary items, which affects demand for our products. Economic conditions also affect governmental political and budgetary policies. As a result, economic conditions also can have an adverse effect on the sale of our products to law enforcement, government, and military customers.
Political and other factors also can adversely affect our performance. Concerns about presidential, congressional, and state elections and legislature and policy shifts resulting from those elections can adversely affect the demand for our products. In addition, uncertainty surrounding the control of firearms and firearm products at the federal, state, and local level and heightened fears of terrorism and crime can adversely affect consumer demand for our services. Often, such concerns result in an increase in near-term consumer demand and subsequent softening of demand when such concerns subside.
In addition, federal and state legislatures frequently consider legislation relating to the regulation of firearms, including amendment or repeal of existing legislation. Existing laws may also be affected by future judicial rulings and interpretations. If restrictive changes to legislation develop, we could find it difficult, expensive, or even impossible to comply with such changes, impeding new product development and distribution of existing products.
The health of the global economy, the credit markets and the financial services industry, in particular, as well as the stability of the social fabric of our society, affects our business and operating results. If the credit markets are not favorable, we may be unable to raise additional financing when needed or on favorable terms. Our customers may experience financial difficulties or be unable to borrow money to fund their operations, which may adversely impact their ability to purchase our products or to pay for our products on a timely basis, if at all.
War, terrorism, other acts of violence, or natural, or manmade disasters, may affect the markets in which the Company operates, the Company’s customers, and the Company’s customer service, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
The Company’s business could be adversely affected by instability, disruption or destruction in a geographic region in which it operates, regardless of cause, including war, terrorism, riot, civil insurrection or social unrest, and natural or manmade disasters, including famine, food, fire, earthquake, storm or pandemic events, and spread of disease.
Such events may cause customers to suspend their decisions on using the Company’s services and give rise to sudden significant changes in regional and global economic conditions and cycles that could interfere with purchases of goods or services on our Marketplace and commitments to develop new products and services. These events also pose significant risks to the Company’s personnel and to physical facilities, transportation and operations, which could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial results.
Risks Related to our Series A Preferred Stock
The Series A Preferred Stock ranks junior to all of our indebtedness and other liabilities.
In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our affairs, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive any of our assets remaining only after all of our indebtedness and other liabilities have been paid. The rights of holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to participate in the distribution of our assets rank junior to the prior claims of our current and future creditors and any future series or class of preferred stock we may issue that ranks senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. Also, the Series A Preferred Stock effectively ranks junior to all existing and future indebtedness and to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our existing subsidiaries and any future subsidiaries. Our existing subsidiaries are, and future subsidiaries would be, separate legal entities and have no legal obligation to pay any amounts to us in respect of dividends due on the Series A Preferred Stock. If we
are forced to liquidate our assets to pay our creditors, we may not have sufficient assets to pay amounts due on any or all of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. We have incurred and may in the future incur substantial amounts of debt and other obligations that rank senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. At March 31, 2026, our total liabilities equaled approximately $32.5 million.
Certain of our existing or future debt instruments may restrict the authorization, payment or setting apart of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Also, future offerings of debt or senior equity securities may adversely affect the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock. If we decide to issue debt or senior equity securities in the future, it is possible that these securities will be governed by an indenture or other instruments containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of the Series A Preferred Stock and may result in dilution to owners of the Series A Preferred Stock. We and, indirectly, our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will bear the risk of our future offerings, which may reduce the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock and will dilute the value of their holdings in us.
The trading market for the Series A Preferred Stock may not provide investors with adequate liquidity.
The Series A Preferred Stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “POWWP.” We cannot assure you that holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be able to sell their shares at favorable prices or at all. The difference between bid and ask prices in any secondary market for the Series A Preferred Stock could be substantial. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or trading markets for, the Series A Preferred Stock, and holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may be required to bear the financial risks of an investment in the Series A Preferred Stock for an indefinite period of time.
We may issue additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock and additional series of preferred stock that rank on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock as to dividend rights, rights upon liquidation or voting rights.
We are allowed to issue additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock and additional series of preferred stock that would rank junior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to dividend payments and rights upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs pursuant to our certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designations relating to the Series A Preferred Stock without any vote of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. The issuance of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock and additional series of preferred stock that have been authorized pursuant to our certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designations could have the effect of reducing the amounts available to the Series A Preferred Stock upon our liquidation or dissolution or the winding up of our affairs. It also may reduce dividend payments on the Series A Preferred Stock if we do not have sufficient funds to pay dividends on all Series A Preferred Stock outstanding and other classes or series of stock with greater or equal priority with respect to dividends.
Also, although holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to limited voting rights, with respect to the circumstances under which the holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Series A Preferred Stock votes separately as a class along with all other series of our preferred stock that we may issue upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable. As a result, the voting rights of holders of Series A Preferred Stock may be significantly diluted, and the holders of such other series of preferred stock that we may issue may be able to control or significantly influence the outcome of any vote. Future issuances and sales of senior or pari passu preferred stock, or the perception that such issuances and sales could occur, may cause prevailing market prices for the Series A Preferred Stock and our common stock to decline and may adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital in the financial markets at times and prices favorable to us.
We may not be able to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock if we have insufficient cash to make dividend payments.
Our ability to pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock requires us to have either net profits or positive net assets (total assets less total liabilities) over our capital, to be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business. Further, even if we meet this criterion, we still may not have sufficient cash to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Our ability to pay dividends may be impaired if any of the risks described in this report were to occur. Also, payment of our dividends depends upon our financial condition and other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant from time to time. We cannot assure you that our businesses will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable
us to make distributions on our preferred stock, including the Series A Preferred Stock, to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs.
Our Series A Preferred Stock has not been rated.
We have not sought to obtain a rating for the Series A Preferred Stock. No assurance can be given, however, that one or more rating agencies might not independently determine to issue such a rating or that such a rating, if issued, would not adversely affect the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock. Also, we may elect in the future to obtain a rating for the Series A Preferred Stock, which could adversely affect the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock. Ratings only reflect the views of the rating agency or agencies issuing the ratings and such ratings could be revised downward, placed on a watch list, or withdrawn entirely at the discretion of the issuing rating agency if in its judgment circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision, placing on a watch list or withdrawal of a rating could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock.
We may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock.
As of May 18, 2026, we may, at our option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time. Also, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the certificate of designations with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock), we may, at our option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control occurred. We may have an incentive to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock voluntarily if market conditions allow us to issue other preferred stock or debt securities at a rate that is lower than the dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock. If we redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, then from and after the redemption date, dividends will cease to accrue on shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock will no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights as a holder of those shares will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price plus accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, payable upon redemption.
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock have extremely limited voting rights.
The voting rights for holders of Series A Preferred Stock are limited. Our shares of common stock are the only class of our securities that carry full voting rights. Voting rights for holders of the Series A Preferred Stock exist primarily with respect to the ability to elect, voting together with the holders of any other series of our preferred stock having similar voting rights, two additional directors to our Board of Directors, subject to certain limitations in the event that dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock are in arrears for four or more consecutive or non-consecutive quarterly dividend periods, and with respect to voting on amendments to our certificate of incorporation or certificate of designations relating to the Series A Preferred Stock that materially and adversely affect the rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock or authorize, increase or create additional classes or series of our capital stock that are senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. Other than the limited circumstances set forth in the certificate of designations for the Series A Preferred and except to the extent required by law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights.
The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible, and investors will not realize a corresponding upside if the market price of the common stock increases.
The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into shares of common stock and earns dividends at a fixed rate. Accordingly, an increase in market price of our common stock will not necessarily result in an increase in the market price of our Series A Preferred Stock. The market value of the Series A Preferred Stock may depend more on dividend and interest rates for other preferred stock, commercial paper and other investment alternatives and our actual and perceived ability to pay dividends on, and in the event of dissolution satisfy the liquidation preference with respect to, the Series A Preferred Stock.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
Risk Management and Strategy
As a publicly traded e-commerce outdoor company, we are acutely aware of the importance of robust cybersecurity measures in safeguarding our information assets, operational integrity, and reputation. Our approach to cybersecurity risk management is integrated into our broader risk management framework and overseen by our Board of Directors.
We have established comprehensive processes to assess, identify, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats. These processes include continuous evaluation of potential threats, regular security assessments of third-party service providers, and stringent monitoring procedures to mitigate risks related to data breaches and other security incidents. We periodically engage third-party consultants, legal advisors, and audit firms to evaluate and assess our risk management systems and to assist in the remediation of potential cybersecurity incidents, as necessary.
Our Information Security Program (the “Program”) is designed to protect personal and proprietary information in compliance with federal and state requirements. The Program aims to:
•ensure the security and confidentiality of employee and customer personal information, as well as Company proprietary information;
•protect against anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such information; and
•prevent unauthorized access to, use of, or transfer of such information, thereby protecting the Company, its employees, and customers from potential harm or inconvenience.
We use a variety of tools and services, including network monitoring, vulnerability assessments, and tabletop exercises, to enhance our cybersecurity posture. Our incident response plan is comprehensive, detailing procedures for preparing for, detecting, responding to, and recovering from cybersecurity incidents. This plan includes processes for triaging, assessing the severity of, escalating, containing, investigating, and remediating cybersecurity incidents, while ensuring compliance with relevant legal obligations. We require employees to undertake data protection and cybersecurity training and compliance programs annually.
In addition to internal measures, we manage cybersecurity risks associated with third-party suppliers, particularly those with access to our systems or confidential data. We perform due diligence on critical third-party suppliers and monitor identified cybersecurity threats. We require these suppliers to contractually agree to manage their cybersecurity risks according to our standards or to submit to cybersecurity audits conducted by our agents.
We regularly engage third-party experts to conduct information security testing, including penetration testing, on our systems and infrastructure. The Program undergoes periodic external assessments aligned with the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. This alignment helps us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business.
Governance
Our Board of Directors oversees our cybersecurity risk management. Directors receive reports as requested from management, including senior IT leadership and third parties, on cybersecurity matters. Additionally, the Board of Directors is kept informed about cybersecurity risks as part of our overall enterprise risk management program and through regular business updates.
Our senior IT leaders and compliance officer are responsible for developing and implementing appropriate cybersecurity programs and ensuring our compliance with applicable laws and regulations. These leaders, equipped with relevant degrees, certifications, and extensive work experience, are informed by their cybersecurity teams about ongoing efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity incidents.
Information regarding cybersecurity risks is communicated through various channels, including direct discussions between key leaders and Company management, and reports to the Board of Directors and its committees.
The Board of Directors regularly receives updates from our compliance officer and senior IT leadership on the status of our cybersecurity measures and any significant developments.
Our commitment to cybersecurity is a fundamental aspect of our operational strategy, ensuring the protection of our information assets, the continuity of our operations, and the trust of our stakeholders.
We have experienced cybersecurity incidents in the ordinary course of business and will continue to experience risks from cybersecurity threats that could have a material adverse effect on our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. Although prior cybersecurity incidents have not had a material adverse effect on our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition to date, any actual or perceived breach of our security could damage our reputation, adversely affect our operations, or subject us to third-party lawsuits, regulatory investigations and fines or other actions or liabilities, any of which could materially adversely affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. For more information on our cybersecurity related risks, see “Breaches of our information systems could adversely affect our reputation, disrupt our operations, and result in increased costs and loss of sales.” and “A failure of our information technology systems, or an interruption in their operation due to internal or external factors including cyber-attacks, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.” in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our executive offices are located in Atlanta, Georgia where we lease approximately 10,000 square feet for approximately $20,000 per month. This space houses our principal executive, administration, and marketing functions as well as our GunBroker operations.
We also lease a 21,000 square foot facility located in Scottsdale, Arizona for approximately $25,000 per month. This space is our former headquarters and is currently not being utilized.
On September 17, 2025, we signed a lease for 2,660 square feet of mixed-use warehouse space in Marietta, Georgia for approximately $3,325 per month. The lease commenced on October 1, 2025 and expires in October 2028.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in various disputes, claims, suits, investigations and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including commercial, intellectual property, and employment-related matters, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. The litigation matters described below involve issues or claims that may be of particular interest to our stockholders, regardless of whether any of these matters were material to our business or financial condition based upon the standard set forth in the SEC’s rules. To our knowledge, except as set forth below, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject.
DCP Matter
On January 18, 2024, Innovative Computer Professionals, Inc. d/b/a Digital Cash Processing (“DCP”) filed a civil action in Minnesota state court against Outdoors Online, LLC d/b/a GunBroker.com (“GunBroker.com”) for breach of contract (the “MN Action”). In the MN Action, DCP alleged that GunBroker.com breached a May 2021 contract, pursuant to which DCP was to provide specified digital payment processing services, and it alleged $100 million in damages. On February 7, 2024, GunBroker.com removed the MN Action to the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota (Case No. 24-CV-00373-DWF-DTS). On February 14, 2024, GunBroker.com moved to dismiss the MN Action for lack of personal jurisdiction and for failure to adequately state a claim, or, in the alternative, to transfer the MN Action to the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (the “Motion”). The court denied the Motion and GunBroker filed its Answer and Counterclaims. The Company and DCP engaged in fact and expert discovery for several months.
On February 20, 2026, we entered into a settlement agreement with DCP, resolving the MN Action. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company paid to DCP $4.4 million on February 27, 2026 in full and final settlement of the MN Action. Upon payment, the parties filed a stipulated dismissal of the MN Action with prejudice. The settlement agreement includes customary mutual releases, but does not release certain non-affiliate third-party
contractors. The settlement does not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Market Information
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “POWW”.
Holders of Common Equity
As of June 15, 2026, there were approximately 253 holders of record of the common stock. This number is based on the actual number of holders registered at such date and does not include holders whose shares are held in “street name” by brokers and other nominees.
Dividend Information
We have never declared or paid dividends on our common stock. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors, including the terms of any credit arrangements, our financial condition, operating results, current and anticipated cash needs and plans for expansion. At the present time, we intend to retain any earnings in our business and therefore do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We paid preferred dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock in the amount of $3.0 million for each of the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
We currently have $0.1 million of unpaid accrued dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock as of March 31, 2026. Accordingly, we may not be able to declare a dividend on our common stock unless full cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared.

Issuer Repurchase of Equity Securities
On January 4, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized a discretionary share repurchase program pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $15.0 million of our outstanding common stock over a period of twelve months. Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, in management’s discretion, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, and other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including pursuant to one or more Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The timing, volume, and value of any repurchases will be determined by management based on factors including market conditions, the Company’s liquidity and capital needs, and other factors deemed relevant. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board or management. Any repurchases under the program will be funded from the Company’s existing cash balances, future operating cash flow, or other legally available funds. Repurchases will be conducted in accordance with the Company’s insider trading policy and applicable trading window restrictions.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with management’s perspective on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements (prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this "Form 10-K"). The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in or implied by forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-K, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Outdoor Holding Company (formerly AMMO, Inc.) and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Overview
Outdoor Holding Company is the owner of the GunBroker Marketplace ("GunBroker" or the "Marketplace"), a leading online marketplace serving the firearms and shooting sports industries. Through our Marketplace, we allow third party sellers to list items consisting of firearms, hunting gear, fishing equipment, outdoor gear, collectibles, and much more, while facilitating compliance with federal and state laws that govern the sale of firearms and other restricted items. This allows our base of over 8.8 million users to follow ownership policies and regulations through our network of approximately 32,000 federally licensed firearms dealers ("FFLs") who serve as transfer agents. The nature and operation of the Marketplace as an online auction and sales platform also affords us a unique view into the total domestic market for the purpose of understanding sales trends at a granular level across all elements of the outdoor sports and shooting space. We generate revenue from marketplace fees, which include marketplace revenue, marketplace service fee revenue, advertising campaign revenue and shipping revenue. Our key strategic initiatives for fiscal year 2027 include: launching universal payment processing to facilitate electronic transactions, decrease transaction friction, increase gross merchandise value ("GMV"), improve the user experience with the use of AI, and accelerate user adoption; deploy capital opportunistically by repurchasing shares; further streamlining the business to increase operational efficiency and reduce operational costs; and implementing further user enhancements to the platform with new tools, analytics, and personalization features to deliver best-in-class buyer and seller experiences. As part of our key strategic initiatives, the Company invested in a platform integration with Master FFL beginning in November 2025. Master FFL integration allows us to provide platform users access to a larger network of FFL dealers, centralizing FFL dealer verification and compliance, and allowing streamlined firearm transfers through automatic verification of federally-licensed firearm dealers.
Recent Developments
Sale of Ammunition Manufacturing Business
We began our operations in 2017 as a producer of high-performance ammunition and premium components. Following the acquisition of the GunBroker.com business in 2021, we conducted operations through two operating and reportable segments, Ammunition and Marketplace. The Ammunition segment engaged in the design, production and marketing of ammunition, ammunition component and related products. The Marketplace segment consists of the GunBroker e-commerce marketplace, which, in its role as an e-commerce marketplace site, supports the lawful sale of firearms, ammunition, and hunting/shooting accessories.
In fiscal year 2025, we initiated a formal review of various strategic alternatives. This review resulted in the decision to sell the Ammunition segment. On January 20, 2025, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, as amended (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Olin Winchester, LLC (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to (i) acquire all assets of our business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, distributing and selling ammunition and ammunition components (collectively, the “Ammunition Manufacturing Business”) along with certain assets related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, including the Ammunition Manufacturing Business’ dedicated manufacturing facility in Manitowoc, WI, and (ii) assume certain liabilities related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, for a gross purchase price of $75.0 million, subject to adjustments for estimated net working capital and real property costs and pro-rations (the “Transaction”). The Transaction closed on April 18, 2025. The net proceeds after all adjustments totaled approximately $42.9 million. On April 21, 2025, we changed our
name from “AMMO, Inc.” to “Outdoor Holding Company”. As of January 20, 2025, the Ammunition segment met the held for sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria. For information on discontinued operations, refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements under the caption “Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations” and Note 4, “Discontinued Operations”.
Settlement of Delaware Litigation
As described in Note 8, “Related Party Transactions” and Note 14, “Contingencies,” in April 2023, Steven F. Urvan filed a lawsuit against the Company and certain of its directors, former directors, employees, former employees, and consultants, related to the Company’s acquisition of GunBroker.com and certain affiliated companies. At the time the lawsuit was filed, Mr. Urvan was a member of the Board of Directors and our largest stockholder. Mr. Urvan now serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In May 2023, the Board of Directors established a special committee to address the litigation initiated by Mr. Urvan, as well as a separate lawsuit subsequently filed by the Company against Mr. Urvan (the lawsuit filed by Mr. Urvan together with the lawsuit filed by the Company, the “Delaware Litigation”).
On May 21, 2025, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”), by and among the Company, Speedlight Group I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Speedlight”), Mr. Urvan, and the following persons, each of whom serves or previously served on the Board of Directors: Richard R. Childress, Jared Smith, Fred W. Wagenhals and Russell Williams Wallace, Jr. (collectively, the “Legacy Directors”). The Settlement Agreement became effective as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 30, 2025, pursuant to its terms (the “Settlement Effective Date”). As a result and pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, effective as of the Settlement Effective Date, (i) Jared Smith resigned as a member of the Board of Directors and from his position as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as an officer or member of each of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries and (ii) Mr. Urvan was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as the Chairman of the Board of Directors. In addition, in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, on June 3, 2025, the Company, Speedlight, Mr. Urvan and the Legacy Directors filed a Stipulation of Voluntary Dismissal With Prejudice dismissing, with prejudice, all claims asserted in the Delaware Litigation.
As partial consideration for the settlement, on the Settlement Effective Date, the Company issued to an affiliated designee of Mr. Urvan, a warrant to purchase 7.0 million shares of common stock (the “Warrant”). The Warrant has a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.81 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant, the Warrant is exercisable at the holder’s discretion, in whole or in part, on or after the six-month anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date, subject to certain accelerated vesting in certain circumstances.
In addition to the Warrant, the Company issued to an affiliated designee of Mr. Urvan, (i) an unsecured promissory note in a principal amount of $12.0 million (“Note 1”) and (ii) an unsecured promissory note in a principal amount of $39.0 million (“Note 2” and together with Note 1, the “Notes”). Note 1 bears interest at 6.50% per annum (subject to a 2.00% increase during an event of default), which interest is payable to the holder annually on the anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date, beginning on the first anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date (each interest payment due date, an “Interest Payment Date”). Note 2 bore interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable federal rate for long-term loans in effect on the Settlement Effective Date (subject to a 2.00% increase during an event of default), which was payable to the holder annually on the Interest Payment Date.
The unpaid principal balance of Note 1 and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon is due on the 12th anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date. Pursuant to the terms of Note 1, the Company is required to make annual prepayments of $1.0 million (inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest then due and payable) to the holder on each Interest Payment Date. The Company has the right to prepay all or any part of the principal or interest of Note 1 without penalty.
With respect to Note 2, the Company also had the option, at any time prior to the first anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date, to prepay all, but not less than all, of the then-outstanding principal amount of Note 2 and accrued and unpaid interest thereon in exchange for the issuance of a warrant (the “Additional Warrant”) to purchase 13.0 million shares of common stock (the “Prepayment Option”). On September 17, 2025, the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors approved the exercise of the Prepayment Option, and we issued the Additional Warrant to Mr. Urvan’s affiliated designee. Upon issuance of the Additional Warrant, all remaining obligations under Note 2 were deemed satisfied with the same force and effect as a prepayment of all principal and accrued and unpaid interest under Note 2. The Additional Warrant has a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Additional Warrant, the Additional Warrant is exercisable at the holder’s
discretion, in whole or in part, on or after September 17, 2026, subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances. Except with respect to the exercise price and the vesting date, the terms of the Additional Warrant and the Warrant are substantially similar.
Settlement of SEC Investigation
As previously disclosed, the Company was subject to an investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to certain accounting, disclosure, and internal control issues primarily arising during periods prior to the tenure of the Company’s current management team. The Company made an Offer of Settlement to the SEC, and on December 15, 2025, the SEC instituted settled cease-and-desist proceedings that fully resolved the investigation. The Company consented to the entry of the cease-and-desist order (the “SEC Order”) without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings, except as to jurisdiction.
Under the terms of the settlement, the SEC did not impose any civil penalty or monetary sanction. The Company agreed to cease and desist from committing or causing any future violations of certain provisions of the federal securities laws and related rules. The SEC’s findings relate primarily to historical disclosure failures, accounting misstatements, non-GAAP financial metric disclosures, and deficiencies in internal accounting controls during the period from August 2020 through July 2023. As part of the SEC settlement, the Company agreed to undertakings requiring it to engage a third-party compliance consultant to review and make recommendations concerning the remediation of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. The Company is required to cooperate fully with the consultant, adopt and implement the consultant’s recommendations within two years of the SEC Order, and provide written certifications of compliance to the SEC staff.
The Company began significant remediation efforts prior to the settlement and has continued those efforts following the resolution of the SEC matter. These actions have included, among other measures, conducting an independent internal investigation, restating affected historical financial statements, replacing prior senior leadership, expanding and enhancing the accounting and external reporting function, retaining external accounting and internal control advisors, strengthening policies and procedures related to expense classification, capitalization, and stock-based compensation, enhancing period-end close and reconciliation controls, establishing a formal disclosure committee, and implementing a more robust process for identifying and disclosing related-party transactions.
The settlement with the SEC did not result in any civil penalty or disgorgement and, accordingly, did not have any direct adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity or capital resources. However, the Company has incurred, and expects to continue to incur, costs related to compliance with the settlement undertakings and indemnification of three former directors and officers. These costs include fees and expenses associated with the compliance consultant and ongoing internal control remediation activities, along with advancement of legal expenses to former directors and officers against whom the SEC has instituted a separate enforcement action. These costs may be material in individual reporting periods but are not expected to impair the Company’s ability to meet its obligations or execute its business strategy.
Management believes that the resolution of the SEC investigation eliminates a significant source of uncertainty and allows the Company to focus on operating its business, enhancing its control environment, and pursuing its strategic objectives. While management cannot provide assurance regarding the timing or ultimate effectiveness of all remediation efforts, the Company believes it has made, and will continue to make, appropriate progress in remediating the identified internal accounting control deficiencies and strengthening its governance, disclosure and financial reporting processes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We analyze operational and financial data to evaluate our business, allocate our resources, and assess our performance. In addition to total net sales, net loss, and other results under GAAP, the following information includes key operating metrics and non-GAAP financial measures that we use to evaluate our business. We believe that these measures are useful for period-to-period comparisons of the Company's performance. We have included these non-GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-K because they are key measures management uses to evaluate our operational performance, produce future strategies for our operations, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of our resources. Accordingly, we believe that these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. The Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation presented below begins with loss from continuing operations, which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. This reconciliation is consistent with the presentation in the Company’s first and second quarter fiscal 2026 earnings releases. In the third quarter fiscal 2026 earnings release, the Company presented the reconciliation beginning with net loss before discontinued operations and included the preferred stock dividend as a reconciling item. The Company has reverted to the prior presentation for clarity and consistency, as the preferred stock dividend does not impact Adjusted EBITDA under any period’s calculation. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA has not changed.

(1)For the year ended March 31, 2026, other nonrecurring expenses consisted of a $4.4 million settlement to Innovative Computer Professionals, Inc. d/b/a Digital Cash Processing (“DCP”), a $1.75 million settlement with a vendor as part of our sale of the ammunition manufacturing business and a $0.2 million settlement contingency with as separate vendor as part of the sale of our ammunition manufacturing business. For the year ended March 31, 2025, other nonrecurring expenses consisted of a $3.2 million expense related to the previously disclosed settlement with Triton Value Partners, LLC (the "Triton Settlement").
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that displays our net loss from continuing operations (the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP), adjusted to eliminate the effect of (i) provision or benefit for income taxes, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) interest expense, (iv) stock-based compensation expenses relating to stock awards and common stock purchase options, (vi) interest and other income, (vi) expenses related to acquisition and divestitures, (vii) gain on extinguishment of debt, (viii) professional service and legal fees related to an investigation conducted by a special committee of the Board of Directors (the “Special Committee Investigation”), the SEC Investigation and the Delaware Litigation and (ix) other nonrecurring expenses, such as contingencies associated with litigation or settlements and corporate restructuring costs related to headcount reductions, severance, and expense consolidation.
We believe that it is useful to exclude these expenses because the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations.
Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, should be considered as supplemental in nature and are not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These limitations include the following:
•stock-based compensation expense has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for the Company and an important part of our compensation strategy;
•the assets being depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and the non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditures or other capital commitments;
•non-GAAP measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and
•other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate their non-GAAP financial measures differently or not at all, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
Because of these limitations, you should consider the non-GAAP financial measures alongside other financial performance measures, including our net income (loss) and our other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
Net Revenues
We generate revenue from marketplace fees, which includes marketplace revenue, marketplace service fee revenue, advertising revenue and shipping revenue. Marketplace revenue consists of optional listing fees with variable pricing components based on customer options and final value fees based on a percentage of the final selling price of the listed item. Marketplace service fee is assessed by GunBroker and added to the price of the item at the time of purchase for all buyers, based on a percentage of the final price of an item at the time of purchase. The marketplace service fee helps offset increased costs associated with compliance with new state laws related to taxation, privacy, and firearms, which have significantly increased GunBroker’s operational compliance expenses. Advertising revenue consists of fees charged for advertisement placement and impressions generated through the GunBroker website. Shipping revenue consists of fees for shipping items sold on the GunBroker website.
Net revenues for the year ended March 31, 2026 increased by $1.7 million, or 3.5%, from the year ended March 31, 2025. This increase was due to higher gross merchandise sales volume generated from increased firearms sales on our Marketplace.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists of costs associated with facilitating transactions on the GunBroker platform as well as advertising costs.
Cost of revenues increased by approximately $0.1 million, or 0.9%, for the year ended March 31, 2026 compared to the year ended March 31, 2025. This increase was the result of an increase in higher transaction volume.
Gross Margin
Our gross margin, which measures our gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, increased to 87.2% for the year ended March 31, 2026 from 86.9% for the year ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily the result of platform monetization, an increasing mix of high-margin seller services, such as advertising, and reduced fraud credits.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses consist of (i) selling and marketing expenses, which include tradeshows and marketing expenses, (ii) corporate general and administrative expenses, which include legal and professional fees and as well as insurance and rent, (iii) employee salaries and related expenses, which include salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, and (iv) depreciation and amortization expenses.
Operating expenses decreased by approximately $51.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2026 compared to the year ended March 31, 2025. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction of $26.2 million in settlement contingencies related to the $29.1 million settlement contingency for the Delaware Litigation occurring in the year ended March 31, 2025 partially offset by $6.2 million in settlements in the year ended March 31, 2026 related to the settlements with Vista Outdoor Sales, LLC d/b/a The Kinetic Group Sales ("Vista") and DCP. In addition, there was reduction of $19.8 million in legal and professional fees as a result of the completion of the previously disclosed restatement of our historical financial statements, the Special Committee Investigation, the SEC Investigation, and the Delaware Litigation as well as a $1.4 million decrease in costs associated with acquisitions and divestitures, a decrease in salaries and related expenses of $4.6 million primarily due to headcount reductions, less employee stock award grants and a reduction in board cash compensation, and a reduction in bad debt expense of $1.2 million as a result of increased collection efforts. These decreases were partially offset by $3.0 million in corporate restructuring costs which included severance payments and the impairment of the lease asset for the Scottsdale office as well as an increase in depreciation and amortization as the result of additions in capitalized software development.
Other Income and Expenses, Net
Total other income, net for the year ended March 31, 2026 increased by $0.6 million compared to the year ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily the result of recognizing a $0.8 million gain on the extinguishment of Note 2 due to the conversion to the Additional Warrant in addition to an increase in interest and other income due
to increased interest earned from carrying a higher cash balance. These increases were partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $1.8 million related to the Notes issued in connection with the Delaware Litigation settlement.
Income Taxes
For the year ended March 31, 2026, we recorded a provision for federal and state income taxes of $49,537 compared to a provision for federal and state income taxes of $6.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2025. Provision for taxes for the year ended March 31, 2026 is for state income taxes. The change in federal and state income taxes for the year ended March 31, 2025 was the result of recording a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets as we concluded it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2026, we had $68.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $37.9 million from $30.2 million of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025.

Liquidity
We expect existing working capital and cash flow from operations to be adequate to fund our operations over the next 12 months. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of stock sales, bank financings, sales of equity, the sale of our Ammunition Manufacturing Business and related-party notes. These sources have been adequate to fund our recurring cash expenditures including but not limited to our working capital requirements, capital expenditures to expand our operations, debt repayments and acquisitions. In the longer-term, we intend to continue to use the aforementioned sources of funding for our share repurchase program, capital expenditures, debt repayments and any potential acquisitions.
Leases
We currently lease three locations, two of which are office space and one of which is a 2,660 square-foot mixed-use warehouse space in Marietta, GA. The office space in Scottsdale is our former headquarters and is currently not being utilized. We attempted to sublease the Scottsdale office space but such efforts have proven unsuccessful thus far. We recorded an impairment of the lease asset in the year ended March 31, 2026 on the Scottsdale lease in the amount of $0.7 million. As of March 31, 2026, we had $1.3 million of fixed lease payment obligations with $0.6 million payable within the next 12 months. As of March 31, 2025, we had $1.8 million of fixed lease payment obligations with $0.7 million payable within the 12 months following such date. Please refer to Note 7, "Leases" for additional information.
Promissory Notes Issued in Settlement of the Delaware Litigation
As described in the "Recent Developments" section above, on May 30, 2025, we issued Note 1 and Note 2 pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. The aggregate principal amount of Note 1 and Note 2 was $51.0 million, and we were required to make aggregate annual prepayments of $2.95 million beginning on May 30, 2026.
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we recorded interest expense of $819,550 and $950,070 on Note 1 and Note 2, respectively.
On September 17, 2025, the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors approved the exercise of the Prepayment Option, and we issued the Additional Warrant in satisfaction of Note 2. The prepayment of Note 2 was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt and a gain of $801,894 was recognized on the consolidated statement of operations. The remaining principal balance on Note 1 is $12.0 million and we are required to make an annual prepayment of $1.0 million on Note 1 beginning on May 30, 2026.
Revolving Loan
On December 29, 2023, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended from time to time, the
“Sunflower Agreement”) by and among the Company and the other borrowers party to the Sunflower Agreement, the lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) and Sunflower Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Lenders provided us a revolving loan ("Revolving Loan") in the principal amount of the lesser of (a) $20.0 million (the “Total Commitment Amount”) and (b) the borrowing base (a formula based on certain amounts owed to borrower for goods sold or services provided and eligible inventory). The proceeds of loans under the Sunflower Agreement could be used for working capital, general corporate purposes, permitted acquisitions, to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Revolving Loan, to facilitate our stock repurchase program and to fund our general business requirements.
As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we did not have an outstanding balance on the Revolving Loan.
On April 1, 2026, we terminated the Sunflower Agreement. The facility had no outstanding balance at the time of termination, and the termination did not materially impact the Company’s liquidity or capital resources.
Share Repurchase Program
On January 4, 2026, the Board authorized a discretionary share repurchase program pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $15.0 million of our outstanding common stock over a period of twelve months. Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, in management’s discretion, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, and other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including pursuant to one or more Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The timing, volume, and value of any repurchases will be determined by management based on factors including market conditions, our liquidity and capital needs, and other factors deemed relevant. The share repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board of Directors or management. Any repurchases under the program will be funded from our existing cash balances, future operating cash flows, or other legally available funds.
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 513,925 shares at an average purchase price of $1.95 per share. The total cash paid to repurchase shares during the year ended March 31, 2026 was $1.0 million.
Changes in cash flow are summarized as follows:
Operating Activities
For the year ended March 31, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was attributable to non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $14.4 million, non-cash expense for employee stock awards of $1.5 million and an increase in other noncurrent liabilities of $1.4 million due to the timing of payments, partially offset by an increase of $3.4 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a decrease of $6.1 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and our net loss from continuing operations.
For the year ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was attributable to our net loss, partially offset by an increase in accrued liabilities of $34.4 million associated with the contingency for the potential settlement of the Delaware Litigation, non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $13.6 million and non-cash expense for employee stock awards of $4.5 million, an increase in accounts payable of $2.5 million due to an increase in invoices unpaid at the end of the year, an increase of $40.4 million in deferred income taxes, partially offset by an increase of $36.0 million in the valuation allowance on deferred income taxes.
Investing Activities
During the year ended March 31, 2026, net cash provided by investing activities consisted primarily of proceeds of $42.9 million related to the sale of the Ammunition Manufacturing Business and $0.5 million in proceeds from the sale of an equity investment, partially offset by $2.9 million in capitalized development costs related to our Marketplace.
During the year ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in investing activities consisted of $3.4 million related primarily to capitalized development costs related to our Marketplace.
Financing Activities
During the year ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in financing activities consisted of $3.0 million of preferred stock dividends paid, $1.0 million used to repurchase shares of common stock pursuant to our repurchase plan and $0.3 million used to repurchase common stock to cover taxes on share awards issued to employees.
During the year ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in financing activities consisted of $3.0 million of preferred stock dividends paid, $5.9 million used to repurchase shares of common stock pursuant to our repurchase plan (which included shares repurchased related to the Triton Settlement), and $0.7 million used to repurchase common stock to cover taxes on share awards issued to employees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, net sales, expenses, results of operations, liquidity capital expenditures, or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our critical accounting estimates are included in our significant accounting policies as described in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplemental Data, of this report. Those consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Critical accounting estimates are those that we believe are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Our estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are drawn from historical operations, current trends, future business plans and other factors that management believes are relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. Actual results may differ from our estimates. Management believes that the following accounting estimates reflect the more significant judgments and estimates we use in preparing our consolidated financial statements.
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
A business is classified as held for sale when management having the authority to approve the action commits to a plan to sell the business, the business is available for immediate sale in its present condition and an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated. Additionally, the sale must be probable to occur during the next 12 months at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value and actions required to complete the plan indicate it is unlikely significant changes to the plan will be made or the plan will be withdrawn. A business classified as held for sale is recorded at the lower of (i) its carrying amount and (ii) estimated fair value less costs to sell. When the carrying amount of the business exceeds its estimated fair value less costs to sell, a loss is recognized and updated each reporting period as appropriate. Assets held for sale are not further depreciated or amortized once such a determination is reached.
The results of operations of businesses classified as held for sale are reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results. When a business is identified for discontinued operations reporting: (i) results for prior periods are retrospectively reclassified as discontinued operations; (ii) results of operations are reported in a single line, net of tax, in the consolidated statement of operations; and (iii) assets and liabilities are reported as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets in the period in which the business is classified as held for sale.
The Board of Directors initiated a formal review of strategic alternatives for the Company's Ammunition segment during the year ended March 31, 2025. This review of strategic alternatives resulted in the decision to sell the Ammunition segment. Accordingly, we concluded the assets of the Ammunition segment met the criteria for classification as held for sale. We determined the ultimate disposal would represent a strategic shift that would have a major effect on our operations and financial results. As such, the results of the Ammunition segment are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented and the assets and liabilities of the Ammunition segment have been reflected as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The Company ceased depreciating and amortizing its long-lived assets for the Ammunition segment which primarily included intangible assets and property and equipment. On January 20, 2025, we entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement with the Buyer, pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to (i) acquire the Ammunition Manufacturing Business along with certain assets related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, and (ii) assume certain liabilities related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, for a gross purchase price of $75.0 million, subject to customary adjustments for estimated net working capital and real property costs and pro-rations The Transaction closed on April 18, 2025. The net proceeds totaled approximately $42.9 million. The assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed by the Buyer were those primarily related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, including the Ammunition Manufacturing Business’ dedicated manufacturing facility in Manitowoc, WI.
We calculated an estimated loss on classification to held for sale of approximately $45.8 million, reflecting the write-down of the carrying value of the Ammunition segment to fair value less costs to sell. The fair value was determined by using market participant assumptions as there was an expected sale price for the business based on negotiations with the Buyer. Costs to sell included estimated incremental, direct costs incurred to transact the sale of the Ammunition segment. Refer to Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses is calculated as a percentage of trade receivables at the end of the reporting period, and is based on historical experience, with the change in such allowance being recorded as provision for credit losses in corporate general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations. This calculation requires management judgment.
Goodwill
We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs, or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. We have the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The qualitative assessment includes certain significant judgments including assessments of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance of the reporting unit, and other relevant considerations impacting the reporting unit. If we elect to bypass the qualitative assessment, or if the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, then we are required to perform a quantitative assessment for impairment. Under the quantitative goodwill impairment test, if the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, we record an impairment charge based on that difference, not exceeding the carrying amount of goodwill. To determine fair value, we apply the income approach, which uses management’s forecasts to estimate future net available cash flow. Significant judgments inherent in this analysis include, but are not limited to, estimates of future revenue, operating margins and long-term growth discount rates. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. If actual results are materially lower than originally estimated, or if we experience significant, adverse changes to long-term growth rate or discount rate assumptions, it could result in a material impact on our consolidated financial statements in future periods. We conducted our annual impairment test of goodwill as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 and determined that no adjustment to the carrying value of goodwill was required.
Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; instead, we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We do not account for lease components (e.g., fixed payments to use the underlying lease asset) separately from the non-lease components (e.g., fixed payments for common-area maintenance costs and other items that transfer a good or service). Some of our leases include variable lease payments, which primarily result from changes in consumer price and other market-based indices, which are generally updated annually, and maintenance and usage charges. These variable payments are excluded from the calculation of our lease assets and lease liabilities.
We utilize the interest rate implicit in the lease to determine the lease liability when the interest rate can be determined. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the recognition of the cost of employee, director and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity over the period the employee, director or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award. Stock-based compensation is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Stock-based compensation for stock awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods and stock-based compensation for stock options is recognized using the accelerated recognition method. Forfeitures are recognized in the periods they occur. There were
809,777 and 1,269,106 shares of common stock issued to employees and members of the Board of Directors for services for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Income Taxes
We file federal and state income tax returns in accordance with the applicable rules of each jurisdiction. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740. The provision for income taxes includes federal, state, and local income taxes currently payable, and deferred taxes. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable amounts in years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. In accordance with ASC 740, we recognize the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. We measure recognized income tax positions at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. We reflect changes in recognition or measurement in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We have not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of business including fluctuations in interest rates and commodity prices, which can affect our operating, investing, and financing activities.

The consolidated financials are submitted as a separate section of this Form 10-K beginning on page F-1.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Not applicable.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of March 31, 2026. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2026.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our ICFR is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our CEO and CFO to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and of the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes, in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that (i) maintain records in reasonable detail that accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized use, acquisition, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under the supervision and with participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) . Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2026.
This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting because, as a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide such an attestation pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not audited and does not express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Remediation of Previously Identified Material Weaknesses
We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment. In connection with our annual report Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2025, we identified material weaknesses in the design and operation of our ICFR in the Control Environment, Control Activities, Information & Communication, and Monitoring components of the COSO framework related to the following areas:
Control Environment, Information and Communication, and Monitoring Activities - Under the COSO framework, the Board of Directors and senior management establish the tone at the top regarding the importance of internal controls and management reinforces expectations at the various levels of the company.
•We did not execute appropriately designed entity-level controls governing the control environment and effective monitoring controls to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements. These deficiencies were attributed to (i) a lack of a sufficient complement of qualified personnel within the accounting and financial reporting function, including reliance on unqualified personnel, with an appropriate level of technical expertise to provide for sufficient oversight, accountability and monitoring over the performance of control activities, (ii) insufficient governance to monitor compliance with the Company's Code of Conduct to identify, evaluate, and report potential fraud as well as related director and management behavior, such as, among other things, director independence, and (iii) improper review and approval of disclosure regarding related party transactions and executive compensation.
Control Activities– These material weaknesses in the control environment resulted in certain instances of inappropriate accounting decisions and inappropriate changes in accounting methodology and contributed to the following additional material weaknesses whereby we did not design, implement and maintain effective controls within certain business processes.
•Complex Technical Accounting: Stock Compensation / Warrants / Convertible Notes – We did not design and maintain controls over the effective review of the models, assumptions and data used in developing estimates or changes made to models, assumptions and data to ensure the appropriate application of GAAP. It was further determined that the existence of complementary or compensating controls could not be relied upon to mitigate the identified deficiencies given failures were detected in all critical procedures from initiation to disclosure of the related transactions, including: timely and accurate accounting assessments performed over newly executed contracts to ensure appropriate application of GAAP; the review and approval of the issuance of stock awards to employees and third-party service providers including determining specific grant dates and key terms; determination of an appropriate fair value measurement for financial instruments; review of the classification and recording of equity compensation expenses; timely and accurate application of GAAP related to equity issuance costs; and recognition and disclosure of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees, directors and third parties.
•Related Party Transactions and Executive Compensation – We did not properly maintain controls over the identification and disclosure of related party transactions and executive compensation.
There were insufficient management review procedures to validate the completeness and accuracy of related party and executive compensation disclosures and to clearly define and evidence the process used and criteria and judgment applied to identify and disclose related party transactions and executive compensation.
•Financial Reporting – We did not properly maintain controls over period-end financial reporting, including tie-out and review of supporting documentation. There were insufficient management review procedures to validate the completeness and accuracy of complex technical accounting transactions and to clearly define and evidence the process used and criteria and judgment applied in the performance of critical business components.
•Segregation of Duties – We failed to properly separate the execution of certain controls by designated senior management, which did not provide for proper segregation between preparer and reviewer for select transactions. We further failed to fully resolve identified segregation of duties conflicts with system access for designated business and IT users, thus related user access review and application change management procedures could not be relied upon for select Company systems.
Throughout fiscal years 2025 and 2026, we completed the implementation and testing of the remediation measures designed to address these material weaknesses. These remediation actions taken to address the material weaknesses included the following:
Control Environment, Information and Communication, and Monitoring Activities:
•Executive Communications to Reinforce Compliance – The Company’s CEO and other executives, at the direction of the Board of Directors, have reinforced the importance of adherence to the Company’s policies and procedures regarding ethics and compliance and the importance of identifying misconduct and raising and communicating concerns. This reinforcement has occurred through email communications, staff meetings, remarks given to senior management, as well as other employee forums, including mandatory ethics training.
•Organizational Enhancements – The Company has completed implementation of several organizational enhancements as follows: (i) the identification and successful hiring of a Vice President of Accounting and External Reporting, who has the responsibility and authority to ensure that GAAP and accounting for complex or non-routine transactions that require specialized accounting are appropriately applied corporate-wide, (ii) the enhancement of the Company’s organizational structure over all finance functions and an increase in the Company’s accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge, experience, and training in GAAP to ensure that a formalized process for determining, documenting, communicating, implementing and monitoring controls over the period-end financial close and reporting processes is maintained and proper segregation exists between the preparer and reviewer for select transactions, and (iii) enhancement of accounting policies and procedures related to journal entries, invoice approval, account reconciliations and variance thresholds.
•Related Party Transaction Policy – The Company utilized its new Related Party Transactions Policy to proactively identify transactions and improve disclosures. Guidance is provided by new corporate disclosure counsel with review/approval by the Audit Committee. The Related Party Transactions Policy was further reviewed and revised in fiscal year 2026.
•Perquisites Policy – The Company utilized its Perquisites Policy to better define its perquisites disclosure requirements, perquisite identification, training, and employee compliance requirements.
Control Activities:
•Significant and Unusual Transactions (Complex Technical Accounting) – The Company evaluated its practices related to significant non-recurring transactions and implemented improvements in those practices, including, (i) updating the process to address agreements with non-standard terms, including formalized review and approval, (ii) more formalized practices for assessing the need for utilization of a third-party expert for unusual or complex transactions, and (iii) the development of a more comprehensive review process and monitoring controls over significant transactions to ensure accurate accounting and the preparation of accounting memoranda.
•Related Party Transaction Policy – In conjunction with the Related Party Transaction Policy the Company implemented formal documentation requirements to clearly evidence the process, criteria, and judgment applied in the identification of related parties, related party transactions and executive compensation, including support for management’s conclusion regarding disclosure requirements.
•Financial Reporting – The Company enhanced its management review procedures through additional training of accounting staff, improved evidence of review through tick marks and screenshots to validate the completeness and accuracy of transactions and to clearly define and evidence the process used and criteria and judgment applied in performance of critical business activities.
•Disclosure Committee – The Company established a formal disclosure committee that includes key members of management that have responsibility for disclosure information necessary for periodic reports filed with the SEC. This committee has met, and will continue to meet, on an as-needed basis as well as prior to the Audit Committee meeting in which a Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or other relevant Exchange Act document will be approved and will conduct follow-up meetings as necessary. The meetings cover all significant events from the period being reported upon and supporting information. A charter was created governing the conduct of this committee, a formal agenda is distributed prior to each meeting, and minutes are maintained for each meeting.
Based on the foregoing remediation measures and testing, management concluded that the previously identified material weaknesses have been remediated and that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2026.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Company Policies
Committee Charters, Corporate Governance Guidelines, and Codes of Conduct and Ethics
The Board of Directors has adopted charters for the Audit, Compensation, and Nominations and Corporate Governance Committees describing the authority and responsibilities delegated to each committee by the Board. The Board has also adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, a Code of Conduct applicable to all of our employees and directors, and a Code of Ethics applicable to the Chief Executive Officer and senior financial officers, including our Chief Financial Officer and principal accounting officer.
We post on our website, at https://outdoorholding.com/governance/governance-documents/default.aspx, the charters of our Audit, Compensation, and Nominations and Corporate Governance Committees, our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Conduct, and Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers, and any amendments or waivers thereto, and any other corporate governance materials specified by SEC regulations. These documents are also available in print, without charge, to any stockholder requesting a copy in writing from our Corporate Secretary at the address of our executive offices.
Clawback Policy
We have adopted a clawback policy in compliance with SEC and Nasdaq rules. In the event we are required to prepare an accounting restatement of our financial results as a result of a material noncompliance by us with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws, we will have the right to recover from any current or former executive officers who received incentive compensation (whether cash or equity) from us during the three-year period preceding the date on which we were required to prepare the accounting restatement, any excess incentive compensation awarded as a result of the misstatement. This policy is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
Insider Trading Policy
We have adopted an insider trading policy (the “Insider Trading Policy”), which outlines the Company’s policies regarding the protection of material, non-public information, trading and tipping, as well as the expected standards of conduct of the Company’s directors, officers and employees with respect to such matters. Specifically, our Insider Trading Policy governs transactions in our securities by our directors, officers and employees and their respective immediate family members and prohibits trading in the securities of the Company at any time that an individual possesses material, non-public information. Additionally, directors, officers and certain restricted employees (as defined in the Insider Trading Policy) may only trade during the trading window set forth in the Insider Trading Policy and must provide notice of any proposed transaction to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Insider Trading Policy also covers trading in call or put options involving the Company’s securities and other derivative securities as well as “short sales” of the Company’s securities. Pursuant to the Insider Trading Policy, officers, directors and restricted employees may not engage in such transactions without the prior approval of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. While the Company is not subject to the Insider Trading Policy, we do not trade in our securities when in possession of material non-public information other than pursuant to previously adopted Rule 10b5-1 trading plans.
Audit Committee
The Company has a separately-designated standing audit committee. Members of the Audit Committee are Christos Tsentas, Houman Akhavan and David Douglas. Mr. Tsentas serves as Chair of the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors determined that Mr. Tsentas, whose background is detailed in director biographies above, qualifies
as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. Mr. Tsentas is independent as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards.
Clawback Recovery Analysis
Following the Company’s previously disclosed accounting restatement, the Compensation Committee conducted a review in accordance with the Company’s Compensation Recovery Policy to determine whether any incentive-based compensation received by current or former executive officers constituted erroneously awarded compensation subject to recovery. Based on its review, the Compensation Committee concluded that no such erroneously awarded compensation had been received and, accordingly, that no recovery or clawback action was required or necessary.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview
The compensation program for our executive officers is administered by our Compensation Committee with Board oversight and approval. The intent of our compensation program is to align our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders, while providing reasonable and competitive compensation.
The purpose of this Executive Compensation discussion is to provide information about the material elements of compensation that we pay or award to, or that is earned by: (i) the individuals who served as our principal executive officer during fiscal year 2026; (ii) our two most highly compensated executive officers, other than the individuals who served as our principal executive officer, who were serving as executive officers, as determined in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, as of March 31, 2026, with compensation during fiscal year 2026 of $100,000 or more; and (iii) up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided pursuant to clause (ii) but for the fact that such individuals were not serving as executive officers on March 31, 2026. We refer to these individuals as our “named executive officers.” For fiscal year 2026, our named executive officers and the positions in which they served are listed below:
•Steve F. Urvan, our Chief Executive Officer;
•Jared R. Smith, our former Chief Executive Officer;
•Paul Kasowski, our Chief Financial Officer; and
•Jordan Christensen, our Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary.
Compensation Committee Overview
The purpose of the Compensation Committee includes determining, or when appropriate, recommending to the Board for determination, the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and discharging the Board’s responsibilities relating to Company compensation programs in light of the goals and objectives of our compensation program for that year. As part of its responsibilities, the Compensation Committee evaluates the performance of our Chief Executive Officer and, together with our Chief Executive Officer, assesses the performance of our other executive officers. Although we do not target executive compensation to any peer group median, we strive to provide a compensation package that is competitive in the market and rewards each executive’s performance. The Compensation Committee recommends compensation packages for approval by the Board of Directors.
Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain and reward executive officers in alignment with our business objectives and long-term stockholder interests. For fiscal 2026, the material elements of our executive compensation program were base salary, cash bonuses, and equity-based compensation.
Compensation Program Objectives
We structure our executive compensation programs around three compensation elements: base salary; discretionary cash bonuses; and equity awards. We believe that the combination of these three elements allows the Company to attract, retain and reward executive officers in alignment with our business objectives and long-term stockholder interests. The discussion below describes the methodology the Compensation Committee used in determining why it believes each element of compensation is aligned with the interest of our stockholders. In
determining the amounts to pay, the Compensation Committee considers each named executive officer’s performance of their responsibilities and duties, as well as the compensation for similar positions at comparable companies.
Base Salary
Base salaries provide a level of fixed compensation sufficient to attract and retain a high-quality leadership team, when considered in combination with the other components of our executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee reviews base salaries annually to ensure they are in line with industry standards and each individual's experience.
For fiscal 2026, the base salaries for Messrs. Urvan, Smith, Kasowski and Christensen were set at $1, $500,000, $325,000 and $400,000 respectively.
Cash Bonuses
Mr. Kasowski is eligible to receive an annual cash performance bonus in an amount up to 100% of his annual base salary, dependent on achieving Company and personal goals. Mr. Christensen is eligible to receive an annual cash performance bonus awarded in the sole discretion of the Board or as delegated by the Board to the Compensation Committee. Such bonuses are payable pursuant to the terms of the foregoing individuals' executive employment agreements and are approved by the Compensation Committee.
Notwithstanding the terms of the employment agreements of certain of our named executive officers, we paid discretionary cash bonuses to certain of our named executive officers from time to time in recognition of their contributions to the Company’s performance, the amounts of which are included in the “Bonus” column in the Summary Compensation Table below.
Equity Awards
We provide equity compensation to our named executive officers in order to further align their interests with those of our stockholders and to further focus our named executive officers on our long-term performance.
Awards of Common Stock
In recognition of their contributions to the Company's performance, and pursuant to their employment agreements, Messrs. Kasowski, and Christensen were granted 200,000 and 360,000 shares of common stock, respectively. Such shares vest in with quarterly installments of 25,000 shares for Mr. Kasowski and 45,000 shares for Mr. Christensen, in each case subject to his continued employment through the applicable vesting date. The number of shares of common stock granted pursuant to the named executive officers’ employment agreements are not subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, re-capitalization or similar event unless such adjustment is expressly agreed upon by the Company and the executive.
In connection with his resignation, and pursuant to the terms of an executive separation agreement, Mr. Smith was awarded 259,998 shares of restricted common stock as of May 30, 2025.
Award of Options to Purchase Common Stock
Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, in July 2023, Mr. Smith was granted stock options to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock, 100,000 of which vested immediately and 300,000 of which were scheduled to vest in equal quarterly installments of 25,000 over three years beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. As discussed in further detail below, in connection with his resignation and pursuant to the terms of an executive separation agreement, the vesting was accelerated by the Board effective May 30, 2025.
Stockholder Engagement
At our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, approximately 94% of the votes cast were in favor of the proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers. Based upon the results of such advisory vote and our review of our compensation policies and decisions, the Board and Compensation Committee believe that these policies and decisions are consistent with our compensation philosophy and objectives and align the interests of our named executive officers with the long-term goals of the Company. We value and continue to seek the feedback we receive from our stockholders in regard to our executive compensation practices.
Perquisites and Other Personal and Additional Benefits
The Company provides named executive officers with perquisites and other personal benefits that the Company believes are reasonable and consistent with its overall compensation program to better enable the Company to attract and retain superior employees for key positions. Attributed costs, if any, of the personal benefits for the named executive officers for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are included in the “All Other Compensation” column in the Summary Compensation Table.
We maintain broad-based benefits that are provided to all full-time employees, including medical, dental, group life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, long- and short-term disability insurance and a tax-qualified 401(k) plan. The Company subsidizes 100% of some executive officers’ health insurance premiums, when required by contract, whereas only a portion of non-executive employees’ premiums are subsidized by the Company. Our 401(k) plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), so that contributions to our 401(k) plan, and income earned on such contributions, are not taxable to participants until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan. All of our 401(k) plan participants are eligible for employer matching contributions equal to 100% of the participant’s elective deferral contributions up to 3% of the participant’s compensation. Our 401(k) plan also permits us to make discretionary contributions, and all of our contributions are subject to established limits and a vesting schedule. We do not maintain any defined benefit pension plans or any non-qualified deferred compensation plans.
The Company also provides meals or reimbursement of meal expenses for named executive officers, as well as certain other miscellaneous expenses described in the footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table.
From time to time, the Company reimburses named executive officers for expenses related to marketing and business development activities, such as hunting trips with customers and suppliers.
Accounting and Tax Considerations
Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public corporations for compensation of over $1,000,000 paid for any fiscal year to an individual who was a named executive officer. The Compensation Committee and the Board will continue to design compensation programs that are in the best long-term interests of the Company and our stockholders, with deductibility of compensation being one of a variety of considerations taken into account.
Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies and Practices
We have assessed the compensation policies and practices with respect to our employees, including our executive officers, and have concluded that they do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The following table sets forth the compensation of our named executive officers for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Employment Agreements
We have entered into employment agreements with certain of our named executive officers, the material terms of which are set forth below.
Kasowski Employment Agreement
Effective as of September 20, 2024, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Paul Kasowski, which replaced and superseded his prior employment agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Kasowski agreed to serve as the Company's Chief Financial Officer for an initial two-year term, with up to two automatic one-year renewal periods unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms.
Mr. Kasowski’s employment agreement provides that he will receive an annual base salary of $325,000 subject to annual increases in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. The agreement also provides that Mr. Kasowski is entitled to receive 25,000 shares of common stock each quarter. The Compensation Committee determined, as a matter of administrative efficiency, to grant the remaining shares due to Mr. Kasowski under his employment agreement in a single grant (subject to vesting provisions) after the shareholder approval of the Outdoor Holding Company 2025 Long-Term Inventive Plan. Mr. Kasowski was granted 175,000 shares of common stock on October 20, 2025, of which 25,000 shares shall vest each quarter for the remaining duration of Mr. Kasowski's employment agreement. Mr. Kasowski is also eligible to receive cash performance-based bonuses as determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee from time to time. Mr. Kasowski’s employment agreement also contains confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disparagement provisions.
Christensen Employment Agreement
On May 1, 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Jordan Christensen, which replaced and superseded his prior employment agreement dated April 4, 2024, pursuant to which Mr. Christensen agreed to serve as the Company's Chief Legal Officer.
Mr. Christensen’s amended and restated employment agreement provides that he will receive an annual base salary of $400,000, subject to periodic review by the Board or the Compensation Committee. The agreement also provides for Mr. Christensen a restricted stock award of 360,000 shares of common stock, with a portion vesting upon grant and the remainder vesting in equal quarterly installments of 45,000 shares per quarter over the initial term of the agreement. In addition, Mr. Christensen is eligible to receive annual performance-based cash bonuses in the sole discretion of the Board. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Christensen is also entitled to participate in employee benefit plans, receive reimbursement for business expenses, and take paid time off in accordance with Company policy. The agreement has an initial term of 24 months, with automatic one-year renewal periods unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms. The agreement further provides for severance and other payments upon certain qualifying terminations, including termination without cause or for good reason, as well as accelerated vesting of equity awards in specified circumstances, including upon a change in control (as further described below). The agreement also contains customary confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disparagement, and other restrictive covenant provisions.
Severance Payments under the Employment Agreements
In the event that the employment of Mr. Christensen or Mr. Kasowski is terminated by the Company without “cause” (as defined in each respective employment agreement) or by Mr. Christensen or Mr. Kasowski for “good reason” (as defined in each respective employment agreement), then Mr. Christensen or Mr. Kasowski, as applicable, will be entitled to receive a severance package which includes 12 months of base salary following the effective date of termination. In each case, such severance is subject to the applicable executive’s execution and delivery to the Company of a release of claims.
In the event that Mr. Christensen’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” or Mr. Christensen terminates his employment for “good reason”, in either case upon or within 12 months following the effective date of a “change in control” (as defined in the Outdoor Holding Company 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan), Mr. Christensen will be entitled to receive a payment equal to 12 months of base salary following the effective date of termination, the accelerated vesting of the stock award granted pursuant to the employment agreement, a pro-rated target annual bonus through the date of termination and release from the non-competition covenant set forth in his employment agreement, in lieu of any other severance amounts, subject to his execution of a release of claims.
With respect to Mr. Christensen, the severance payments will be paid in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, commencing with the first payroll period after the effective date of the release of claims and, subject to timely election of continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), payment of group health insurance premiums for a period of up to 12 months following the date of termination or until COBRA benefits otherwise end.
With respect to Mr. Kasowski, the severance payments will include salary and insurance benefits for a period of 12 months from the effective date of termination and 100% accelerated vesting of any shares and options, including any remaining unvested shares and options, which shall immediately become vested and issuable upon termination.
Smith Employment Agreement and Executive Separation Agreement
On December 15, 2022, the Company and Mr. Smith entered into an employment agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Smith served as our Chief Operating Officer.
On July 24, 2023, in connection with Mr. Smith’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer, the Company and Mr. Smith entered into an amended and restated employment agreement. The amended and restated employment agreement provided for an initial term of three years, with the Company having the right to extend the agreement for up to three additional one-year terms. Mr. Smith’s amended and restated employment agreement would be terminated automatically upon Mr. Smith’s death and could be terminated by either party with or without cause in accordance with state and federal law, or by the Company upon Mr. Smith’s disability, as defined in the amended and restated employment agreement. Mr. Smith’s amended and restated employment agreement provided for (i) an annual base salary of $500,000, subject to annual increases of up to 6% as determined in the discretion of the Board and subject to the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, (ii) 400,000 shares of common stock over the term of the agreement, vesting and issuable on a quarterly basis, and (iii) stock options to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock. Such options were to vest (i) 100,000 on July 24, 2023, and (ii) the remaining 300,000 in equal quarterly installments of 25,000 over three years beginning with the September 30, 2023 quarter, provided, in each case, that Mr. Smith remained in the continuous employ of the Company as of the end of each quarter. Mr. Smith was also eligible to earn an annual cash performance bonus in such amount, if any, as determined in the sole discretion of the Board and subject to the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, which bonus target is 100-125% of his annual salary.
Mr. Smith’s amended and restated employment agreement also includes confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disparagement provisions. The agreement provided that, for six months following the date of his termination, or 90 business days if Mr. Smith was terminated without cause upon a change in control (the “Restricted Period”), Mr. Smith was prohibited from, directly or indirectly, in any territory in which the Company operates, (i) engaging in, marketing, selling, or providing any products or services that are the same or similar to or otherwise competitive with the products and services sold or provided by the Company or (ii) owning, acquiring, or controlling any interest, financial or otherwise, in a third party or business or managing, participating in, consulting with, rendering services for or otherwise, any business, that in each case is engaged in selling or providing the same, similar or otherwise competitive services or products that the Company is selling or providing, other than ownership of 1% or less of the equity of a publicly traded company. Further, during the Restricted Period, Mr. Smith could not, directly or indirectly, (i) call on, solicit, or service, engage or contract with, or take any action that may interfere with, impair, subvert, disrupt, or alter the relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Company and any current or prospective customer, supplier, distributor, agent, contractor, developer, service provider, licensor, licensee or other material business relation of the Company, (ii) divert or take away the business or patronage (with respect to products or services of the kind or type developed, produced, marketed, furnished, or sold by the Company) of any of the Company’s clients, customers, or accounts, or prospective clients, customers, or accounts, (iii) solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any employees or independent contractors of or consultants to the Company to terminate their relationship with the Company or take away or hire such employees, independent contractors or consultants, or (iv) attempt to do any of the foregoing.
On May 21, 2025, the Company entered into an executive separation agreement with Mr. Smith which became effective as of May 30, 2025. As a result, Mr. Smith’s amended and restated employment agreement terminated, except for certain customary surviving provisions. Pursuant to the executive separation agreement, Mr. Smith received certain separation benefits, including: (i) payment of all compensation and benefits to which Mr. Smith is legally entitled under his amended and restated employment agreement through May 21, 2025; (ii) a lump sum cash separation payment equal to $625,000 (an amount equal to 15 months of Mr. Smith’s annual base salary); (iii) reimbursement for all reimbursable expenses due to Mr. Smith under the amended and restated employment agreement as of May 30, 2025; and (iv) a lump sum payment equal to the value of Mr. Smith’s accrued and unused vacation and paid time off balance as of May 30, 2025. The Company also agreed to pay premiums for extended health insurance coverage under COBRA for a period of 12 months for Mr. Smith and his family, or until Mr. Smith’s coverage otherwise terminated in accordance with COBRA or on account of Mr. Smith’s eligibility to receive coverage under a subsequent employer’s program.
Pursuant to the executive separation agreement, Mr. Smith was permitted to retain 100% of his nonqualified stock options and shares of common stock, including any remaining unvested shares and options, which immediately became vested and exercisable as of May 30, 2025, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) and any applicable award documentation with respect to such options, which terms and conditions include exercisability of the options for up to ten years after the original issuance date.

(2)The amounts in this column reflect the aggregate fair value of the stock awards granted to our directors during the fiscal year, as applicable, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation, Stock Compensation. The amounts reported in this column reflect our accounting expense for these awards and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the directors from their stock awards. None of our directors held any unvested stock awards or option awards as of March 31, 2026.
(3)The amounts in this row are also reported in the "All Other Compensation" column of the Summary Compensation Table above. Mr. Urvan's cash board payments were paid during the part of the fiscal year before he became the Chief Executive Officer and became ineligible for non-employee director cash compensation.
In October 2025, our Board adopted an annual compensation policy as it relates to our directors to provide annual cash retainers (paid in quarterly installments) for each non-employee director as follows:

In addition to the cash compensation described above, the director compensation policy provides that, following election at each annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, each non-employee director serving on the Board is entitled to receive an award of 60,000 restricted shares of common stock under the under the Outdoor Holding Company 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan (or any successor equity incentive plan then in effect). Such shares vest in quarterly installments, with 25% of the shares vesting on November 15, February 15, May 15, and August 15 of the applicable year, provided that the director is providing services to the Company through the applicable vesting date. Any unvested director shares will be forfeited in the event that the director’s service on the Board terminates, except upon a termination due to death or total and permanent disability, in which case all unvested shares shall immediately become vested in full. We also reimburse each director for reasonable travel expenses related to such director’s attendance at board and committee meetings.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
The following table sets forth certain information, to the extent known by us or ascertainable from public filings, with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock for:
•each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our voting securities;
•each member of our Board of Directors;
•each of our named executive officers with respect to the year ended March 31, 2026; and
•all of our directors and current executive officers as of June 15, 2026, as a group.
We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Under such rules, an individual or entity is generally deemed to beneficially own any shares as to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting or investment power, including any shares that the individual or entity has the right to acquire within 60 days of June 15, 2026 through the exercise of any stock options or other rights. Except as indicated in the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished or available to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable.
The applicable percentage ownership is based on 116,163,494 shares of common stock outstanding at June 15, 2026, which includes unvested shares of restricted stock.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Policies and Procedures for Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions
We have adopted a formal written policy for the review, approval and ratification of transactions with related parties. Our Related Party Transactions Policy, which was adopted on June 6, 2024, provides guidance for addressing actual or potential conflicts of interest, including those that may arise from transactions and relationships between us and our executive officers or directors. The policy covers transactions between the Company and our executive officers, directors, director nominees, 5% stockholders and any person who is an immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons. The policy generally applies to any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which (i) the Company was or is to be a participant, (ii) the amount of which exceeds the lesser of (x) $120,000 in the aggregate or (y) one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years and (iii) the related party had, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest.
The Audit Committee, as matter of appropriate corporate governance, reviews and approves all such transactions, to the extent required by applicable rules and regulations. Generally, management presents to the Board of Directors for approval at the next regularly scheduled Board meeting any related party transactions proposed to be entered into by us. The Audit Committee may approve the transaction if it is deemed to be in the best interests of the Company. In determining whether to approve or ratify a transaction, the Audit Committee takes into account, among
other factors it deems appropriate, (i) the relevant facts and circumstances of the transaction, including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s length dealings with an unrelated third party, (ii) the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction, (iii) whether the transaction contravenes the Company’s Code of Business Ethics and Conduct Policy or other policies, (iv) whether the relationship underlying the transaction is believed to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and (v) if such related party is a director or his or her immediate family member, the effect that the transaction may have on the director’s status as an independent member of the Board of Directors and eligibility to serve on committees of the Board of Directors pursuant to SEC rules and applicable stock exchange listing standards.
Transactions with Related Parties
The following is a description of each transaction since April 1, 2024 and each currently proposed transaction in which:
•we have been or are to be a participant;
•the amount involved exceeds the lesser of (x) $120,000 in the aggregate or (y) one percent of the average of the Company's total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years; and
•any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Transactions Involving Steve Urvan
Steve Urvan, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, owns or controls approximately 19.8% of our common stock as of the date of this Form 10-K.
Gemini Accounts Receivable
Through our acquisition of Gemini Direct Investments, LLC ("Gemini") in 2021, a related party relationship was created through Mr. Urvan, then a director and now our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, by virtue of his ownership of entities that provided services to Gemini. There was $201,646 included in our accounts receivable at September 30, 2025 from entities owned by Mr. Urvan. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company determined that these amounts were uncollectible after evaluating the age of the receivables, historical collection experience, incomplete billing records, and the financial condition and operating history of the related entities. As a result, the $201,646 included in our accounts receivable was written off against the Company's reserve for credit losses. The determination of uncollectibility and the related write-off were reviewed and approved by the Company's Audit Committee, and Mr. Urvan did not participate in the review or approval of such determination and the related write-off.
The 2025 Urvan Settlement Agreement
On May 21, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Settlement Agreement. The 2025 Settlement Agreement became effective as of the Settlement Effective Date. As a result and pursuant to the 2025 Settlement Agreement, effective as of the Settlement Effective Date, (i) Jared Smith resigned as a member of the Board of Directors and from his position as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as an officer or member of each of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries and (ii) Mr. Urvan was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as the Chairman of the Board of Directors. In addition, in accordance with the 2025 Settlement Agreement, on June 3, 2025, the Company, Speedlight, Mr. Urvan and the Legacy Directors filed a Stipulation of Voluntary Dismissal With Prejudice dismissing, with prejudice, all claims asserted in the Delaware Litigation.
As partial consideration for the settlement, on the Settlement Effective Date, the Company issued to an affiliated designee of Mr. Urvan, GDI Air, LLC, the Warrant to purchase 7.0 million shares of common stock. GDI Air is a single-member limited liability company whose sole member is UFO, LLC ("UFO"). UFO is a single-member limited liability company whose sole member is the 50 X 50 Trust, a Nevada irrevocable domestic asset protection trust of which Mr. Urvan is the grantor, investment trust adviser, and a discretionary beneficiary. Mr. Urvan serves as a manager of UFO and, in such capacity, has sole voting and dispositive power over the shares owned or controlled by UFO. The Warrant has a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.81 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant, the Warrant is exercisable at the holder’s discretion, in whole or in part, on or after the six-month anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date, subject to certain accelerated vesting in certain circumstances.
In addition to the Warrant, we issued to an affiliated designee of Mr. Urvan, (i) Note 1, an unsecured promissory note in a principal amount of $12.0 million and (ii) Note 2, an unsecured promissory note in a principal
amount of $39.0 million. Note 1 bears interest at 6.50% per annum (subject to a 2.00% increase during an event of default), which interest is payable to the holder annually on the anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date, beginning on the first anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date (each interest payment due date, an “Interest Payment Date”). Note 2 bore interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable federal rate for long-term loans in effect on the Settlement Effective Date (subject to a 2.00% increase during an event of default), which was payable to the holder annually on the Interest Payment Date.
The unpaid principal balance of Note 1 and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon is due on the 12th anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date. Pursuant to the terms of Note 1, the Company is required to make annual prepayments of $1.0 million (inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest then due and payable) to the holder on each Interest Payment Date. The Company has the right to prepay all or any part of the principal or interest of the Note without penalty.
With respect to Note 2, the Company also had the option, at any time prior to the first anniversary of the Settlement Effective Date, to prepay all, but not less than all, of the then-outstanding principal amount of Note 2 and accrued and unpaid interest thereon in exchange for the issuance of the Additional Warrant to purchase 13.0 million shares of common stock. On September 17, 2025, the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors approved the exercise of the Prepayment Option, and the Company issued the Additional Warrant to Mr. Urvan’s affiliated designee. Upon issuance of the Additional Warrant, all remaining obligations under Note 2 were deemed satisfied with the same force and effect as a prepayment of all principal and accrued and unpaid interest under Note 2. The Additional Warrant has a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Additional Warrant, the Additional Warrant is exercisable at the holder’s discretion, in whole or in part, on or after September 17, 2026, subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances. Except with respect to the exercise price and the vesting date, the terms of the Additional Warrant and the Warrant are substantially similar.
Letter of Credit
On July 26, 2023, we obtained a $1.6 million letter of credit with The Northern Trust Company (“Northern Trust”) for collateral for a bond related to a judgment assessed to GunBroker. Effective July 12, 2024, our $1.6 million letter of credit with Northern Trust was extended until July 26, 2025. Effective July 7, 2025 the letter of credit was moved to Sunflower Bank with an expiration date of July 7, 2026. The term of the letter of credit is twelve months and includes interest of approximately 4%. Per the terms of the merger agreement with Gemini, Mr. Urvan was required to indemnify the Company with respect to any losses related to the underlying judgment against GunBroker if the appeal was unsuccessful. Pursuant to the terms of the 2025 Settlement Agreement, the losses related to the judgment are no longer indemnified by Mr. Urvan.
Triton Settlement Agreement Payment
On June 24, 2024, we entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the “Triton Settlement Agreement”) with Triton Value Partners, LLC, Donald Gasgarth, Paul Freischlag, Jr., Jeff Zwitter (the “Plaintiffs”), and Steven Urvan and TVP Investments LLC (the “Urvan Defendants”) and GunBroker.com, LLC, IA TECH, LLC, and GB Investments, Inc. (the “GunBroker Defendants,” and collectively with the Urvan Defendants, the “Defendants”) to fully resolve and settle all disputes and claims related to the litigation between the Defendants and Plaintiffs captioned Triton Value Partners, LLC et al. v. TVP Investments, LLC et al., Cobb County Superior Court, CAFN 18104869 (the “Triton Action”). Pursuant to the Triton Settlement Agreement, the GunBroker Defendants agreed to pay the Plaintiffs $8,000,000 (the “Settlement Amount”) in a single lump sum payment. The Company agreed to tender the Settlement Amount to an escrow agent on behalf of the GunBroker Defendants within 45 days of the Triton Settlement Agreement’s execution.
In connection with the merger agreement with Gemini, on April 30, 2021, the Company and Mr. Urvan entered into a Pledge and Escrow Agreement (the “Pledge and Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Urvan pledged common stock in the amount of $2.8 million, a portion of which were sent to the Company’s transfer agent for cancellation on September 30, 2024. Pursuant to the Triton Settlement Agreement, each of the Plaintiffs and the Defendants provided mutual releases of all claims as of June 24, 2024, arising from any allegations set forth in the Triton Action. Upon the cancellation of the pledged securities on September 30, 2024, the parties’ payment obligations under the Triton Settlement Agreement were complete.
As a result of the contingency recognized for the Triton Settlement Agreement, we had recorded a receivable of $4,800,000. During the year ended March 31, 2025, we recognized the value of shares returned to the Company in
lieu of the settlement payment. As of March 31, 2025, Mr. Urvan transferred the shares to the Company and they have been reclassified to treasury stock.
Tenor Litigation
Pursuant to the merger agreement with Gemini, Mr. Urvan was granted sole and exclusive control over the prosecution, defense and settlement of certain designated litigation matters, including the litigation captioned GunBroker.com, LLC v. Tenor Capital Partners, No. 1:20-CV-00613 (N.D. GA.) (the "Tenor Litigation"), and the right to receive any amounts recovered by or awarded to the Company with respect to such matters. In addition, the merger agreement with Gemini required Mr. Urvan to indemnify, defend, hold harmless and reimburse the Company with respect to designated matters, including the Tenor Litigation. Subsequently, pursuant to the 2025 Settlement Agreement, the Company released Mr. Urvan from certain of these indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligations under the merger agreement. In April 2026, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit reversed the district court's grant of summary judgment on a breach of fiduciary duty claim asserted by GunBroker in the Tenor Litigation and remanded that claim for further proceedings.
In June 2026, the Company and its subsidiary Speedlight Group I, LLC entered into a side letter agreement with Mr. Urvan confirming his right to control the prosecution, defense, and settlement of the Tenor Litigation was not extinguished by the 2025 Settlement Agreement and clarifying that, consistent with the intent of the merger agreement and the 2025 Settlement Agreement, (i) Mr. Urvan is solely responsible for all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the prosecution, defense and settlement of the Tenor Litigation, (ii) the Company has no obligation to fund, advance, reimburse or indemnify any cost, expense or liability arising from or related to the Tenor Litigation, and (iii) Mr. Urvan may not settle the Tenor Litigation on terms that would result in any obligation or restriction binding upon the Company or its subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors. The side letter does not amend the merger agreement with Gemini or the 2025 Settlement Agreement and does not revive or reinstate any indemnification or similar obligations of Mr. Urvan that were released pursuant to the 2025 Settlement Agreement. If Mr. Urvan determines to pursue a damage claim for breach of fiduciary duty in the full amount permitted by applicable law, such amount is likely to exceed the $120,000 disclosure threshold of Item 404 of Regulation S-K. The side letter was reviewed and approved by the Company's Audit Committee.
Director Independence
Nasdaq rules require that a majority of the members of our Board of Directors be independent directors. The independence rules include a series of objective tests, including that the director is not employed by the Company and has not engaged in various types of business dealings with the Company. In addition, our Board of Directors is required to make a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist that, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Based upon these standards and the consideration of the information and the transactions and relationships discussed above, our Board of Directors determined that Houman Akhavan, David Douglas, Christos Tsentas and Wayne Walker are independent, and that Steve Urvan is not independent under such standards. In making such determinations, the Board of Directors considered transactions and relationships between each non-employee director and the Company, if any, that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.
Each director who served on a committee during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 was independent under the Nasdaq independence standards for service on the applicable committee.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES
PKF of Texas, PC ("PKF") served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from April 8, 2021 to July 2, 2025. On July 2, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Outdoor Holding Company approved the replacement of PKF as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, due to the acquisition of certain assets of PKF by WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) effective July 2, 2025. Withum has served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm from July 2, 2025 to present.
The following table presents the fees billed by Withum (which includes fees from PKF prior to its acquisition by Withum) for its services during the Company’s last two fiscal years.

It is our policy to engage the principal accounting firm to conduct the audit of the Company’s financial statements and to confirm, prior to such engagement, that such principal accounting firm is independent of the Company to the extent required by SEC rules and regulations. All services of the principal accounting firm reflected above were approved by the Board.
“Audit Fees” consist of fees incurred for professional services for the audit of our financial statements and restated financial statements and review of our interim consolidated financial statements included in quarterly reports and other services normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.
“Audit-Related Fees” consist of fees incurred for other attestation engagements and consultations regarding financial accounting and reporting matters.
“All Other Fees” consist of legal fees incurred by PKF in connection with the investigation conducted pursuant to Section 10A of the Exchange Act and the SEC Investigation, which fees were reimbursed by the Company pursuant to indemnification provisions in the engagement agreement with PKF.
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies
The charter of our Audit Committee provides that the duties and responsibilities of our Audit Committee include the pre-approval of all audit, audit-related, tax, and other services permitted by law or applicable SEC regulations (including fee and cost ranges) to be performed by our independent registered public accountant. Any pre-approved services that will involve fees or costs exceeding pre-approved levels will also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Unless otherwise specified by the Audit Committee in pre-approving a service, the pre-approval will be effective for the 12-month period following pre-approval. The Audit Committee will not approve any non-audit services prohibited by applicable SEC regulations or any services in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent registered public accountant, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported by the Code and related regulations.
To the extent deemed appropriate, the Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to the Chairman of the Audit Committee or any one or more other members of the Audit Committee provided that any member of the Audit Committee who has exercised any such delegation must report any such pre-approval decision to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee will not delegate the pre-approval of services to be performed by the independent registered public accountant to management.
Our Audit Committee requires that our independent registered public accounting firm, in conjunction with our Chief Financial Officer, be responsible for seeking pre-approval for providing services to us and that any request for pre-approval must inform the Audit Committee about each service to be provided and must provide detail as to the particular service to be provided.
All of the services provided above under the caption “All Other Fees” were approved by the Board or by our Audit Committee pursuant to our Audit Committee’s pre-approval policies.

Index to Consolidated Financial Statements
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Outdoor Holding Company:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Outdoor Holding Company and Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of March 31, 2026, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2026, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended March 31, 2025 were audited by PANNELL KERR FORSTER OF TEXAS, P.C. who joined WithumSmith+Brown, PC on June 1, 2025, and rendered their opinion on such statements on June 1, 2025.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Accounting for Settlement-Related Warrants, Debt Instruments, and Subsequent Extinguishment - Refer to Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company entered into a settlement agreement with a related party that resulted in the issuance of debt instruments and equity-linked warrants, as well as the subsequent extinguishment of $39.0 million of debt through the issuance of warrants. The accounting for this transaction involved multiple complex and interrelated elements, including (i) the initial recognition and measurement of the debt instruments and warrants issued in connection with the settlement, (ii) the evaluation of embedded features and classification of warrants as equity, and (iii) the accounting for the extinguishment of the debt.
Auditing this transaction required especially challenging judgment due to the complexity of the contractual terms, and the involvement of a related party. Significant auditor judgment was required in evaluating (i) whether the related instruments issued in the settlement were appropriately identified as freestanding financial instruments and measured at fair value at inception, (ii) whether embedded features required bifurcation or qualified for equity classification, and (iii) whether the extinguishment of the $39.0 million note and related issuance of warrants were recognized and measured in accordance with applicable accounting guidance.
Given the complexity of the transaction structure and the subjectivity involved in applying the relevant accounting guidance and evaluating management’s judgments, auditing these areas involved especially subjective auditor judgment, which led us to determine that this matter is a critical audit matter.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to this critical audit matter included the following, among others:
•Obtained and evaluated the settlement agreement and supporting documentation to understand the structure of the transaction, including the issuance of Notes and warrants. We evaluated management’s technical accounting analysis, including the application of the relevant accounting literature.
•Evaluated the initial recognition for the debt and warrants, including testing fair values at inception and recalculating debt discounts and the allocation of consideration with the assistance of an auditor-engaged valuation specialist.
•Assessed embedded features to determine whether bifurcation was required and evaluated the classification of the warrants under relevant accounting guidance.
•Evaluated the accounting for extinguishment of Note 2 by evaluating management’s technical accounting analysis, including the application of the relevant accounting literature.

OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS ACTIVITY
Outdoor Holding Company ("Outdoor Holding," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") began its operations in 2017 as a producer of high-performance ammunition and premium components. Following the acquisition of the GunBroker business ("GunBroker") in 2021, we conducted operations through two operating and reportable segments, the Ammunition segment and the Marketplace segment. The Ammunition segment engaged in the design, production and marketing of ammunition, ammunition components and related products. The Marketplace segment consists of the GunBroker e-commerce marketplace (“Marketplace”), which, in its role as a marketplace site, supports the lawful sale of firearms, ammunition, and hunting/shooting accessories. In addition, GunBroker helps provide the outdoors community with a state and federal compliant solution that connects buyers with sellers across the United States with local federally licensed firearm dealers.
Prior to the sale of the Ammunition Manufacturing Business (defined below) in April 2025 (see “Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations” under Note 2), our Ammunition segment manufactured small arms ammunition and their components for the commercial, military, and law enforcement communities. Our manufacturing operations were based out of Manitowoc, Wisconsin. We emphasized an American heritage by using predominantly American-made components and raw materials in our products that were produced, inspected, and packaged at our facility in Manitowoc, WI. Following the sale of the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, the Company continues to operate its online Marketplace business.
We changed our name from AMMO, Inc. to Outdoor Holding Company on April 21, 2025.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Outdoor Holding Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 205-20 “Discontinued Operations,” a business is classified as held for sale when management having the authority to approve the action commits to a plan to sell the business, the business is available for immediate sale in its present condition and an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated. Additionally, the sale must be probable to occur during the next 12 months at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value and actions required to complete the plan indicate it is unlikely significant changes to the plan will be made or the plan will be withdrawn. A business classified as held for sale is recorded at the lower of (i) its carrying amount and (ii) estimated fair value less costs to sell. When the carrying amount of the business exceeds its estimated fair value less costs to sell, a loss is recognized and updated each reporting period, as appropriate. Assets held for sale are not depreciated or amortized.
The results of operations of businesses classified as held for sale are reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results. When a business is identified for discontinued operations reporting: (i) results for prior periods are retrospectively reclassified as discontinued operations; (ii) results of operations are reported in a single line, net of tax, in the consolidated statement of operations; and (iii) assets and liabilities are reported as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets in the period in which the business is classified as held for sale.
As previously reported, during the year ended March 31, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors") initiated a formal review of strategic alternatives for the Company. This review of strategic alternatives resulted in the decision to sell our Ammunition segment. We concluded the assets of the Ammunition segment met the criteria for classification as held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Additionally, we determined the ultimate disposal would represent a strategic shift that would have a major effect on our operations and financial results. As such, the results of the Ammunition segment are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. Prior periods have been adjusted to conform to the current presentation. The assets and liabilities of the Ammunition segment have been reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. There were no assets or liabilities classified as discontinued operations as of March 31, 2026. We ceased depreciating and amortizing our long-lived assets for the Ammunition segment which primarily include right-of-use assets, intangible assets and property and equipment. On January 20, 2025, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Olin Winchester, LLC (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to (i) acquire all assets of our business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, distributing and selling ammunition and ammunition components (collectively, the “Ammunition Manufacturing Business”) along with certain assets related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, including the Ammunition Manufacturing Business’ dedicated manufacturing facility in Manitowoc, WI, and (ii) assume certain liabilities related to the Ammunition Manufacturing Business, for a gross purchase price of $75.0 million, subject to adjustments for estimated net working capital and real property costs and pro-rations. The transaction was completed on April 18, 2025.
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Unless otherwise noted, all amounts and disclosures included in these notes to the consolidated financial statements reflect only the Company's continuing operations. Refer to Note 4 "Discontinued Operations" for additional details on discontinued operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include the valuation of allowances for credit losses, valuation of deferred tax assets, useful lives of assets, stock-based compensation, impairment of goodwill, impairment of long-lived assets, and warrant-based compensation.
Goodwill
We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. In testing for goodwill impairment, we may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If our qualitative assessment indicates that goodwill impairment is more likely than not, we perform a quantitative assessment for impairment. Under the quantitative goodwill impairment test, if a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill. We conducted our annual impairment test of goodwill as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 and determined that no adjustment to the carrying value of goodwill was required.
As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had a goodwill carrying value of $90.9 million.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Our accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers for products sold and include an allowance for estimated credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is calculated as a percentage of trade receivables at the end of the reporting period, and is based on historical experience, with the change in such allowance being recorded as provision for credit losses in corporate general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, we consider highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents, which may include bank deposits and certificates of deposit.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flow. If the total of the future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of those assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we recognized impairment on our right-of-use assets as discussed in Note 8, "Leases." During the year ended March 31, 2025, we recognized impairment on long-lived assets related to assets that were held for sale as discussed in Note 4, "Discontinued Operations."
Deferred Contract Fulfillment Costs
We capitalize third-party costs to fulfill contracts with customers in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other noncurrent assets on our consolidated balance sheet. We amortize these costs on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when we transfer control of promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those services. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. We apply the following five-step model to determine revenue recognition:
•Identification of a contract with a customer
•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
•Determination of the transaction price
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
•Allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligation
•Recognition of revenue when performance obligations are satisfied
Revenues are generated through our GunBroker online marketplace. Performance obligations are satisfied, and revenue is recognized, as follows:
Marketplace revenue consists of optional listing fees with variable pricing components based on customer options selected from the GunBroker website and final value fees based on a percentage of the final selling price of the listed item. The performance obligation is to process the transactions as initiated by the customer. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the transaction is processed.
Marketplace service fee revenue consists of fees charged to customers based on a percentage of the final price of an item at the time of purchase. The performance obligation is to process the transactions as initiated by the customer. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the transaction is processed.
Shipping revenue consists of fees charged to customers for shipping of sold items listed on the GunBroker website. The performance obligation is to ship the item sold as initiated by the customer. The price is set based on the third-party service provider selected to be used by the customer as well as the speed and location of shipment. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the shipping label is printed.
Advertising revenue consists of fees charged to customers for advertisement placement and impressions generated through the GunBroker website. The performance obligation is to generate the number of impressions specified by the customer on banner advertisements on the GunBroker website using the placement selected by the customer. The price is set by the customer agreement based on standalone selling prices or by advertising insertion order as negotiated by a media broker. If the number of impressions promised is not generated, the customer receives a refund and the refund is applied to the transaction price. Advertising revenue is recognized at a point in time at the end of the selected month.
For the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no customers comprised more than 10% of total revenues. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, no customers comprised more than 10% of accounts receivable.
Advertising Costs
Marketplace advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred and recorded in cost of revenues. For the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 we incurred advertising expenses of $577,661 and $413,461, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We measure options and warrants at fair value in accordance with ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). The objective of ASC 820 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 specifies a valuation hierarchy based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable.
Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
This hierarchy requires us to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when estimating fair value.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Property and Equipment, net
We state property and equipment at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method at rates intended to depreciate the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, which are generally three to ten years.
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Upon retirement or sale of property and equipment, we remove the cost of the disposed assets and related accumulated depreciation from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to other income or expenses. We charge expenditures for normal repairs and maintenance to expense as incurred.
We capitalize additions and expenditures for improving or rebuilding existing assets that extend the useful life. Leasehold improvements made either at the inception of the lease or during the lease term are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or the lease term including any renewals that are reasonably assured.
Internal Use Software Costs
Platform development costs, including direct labor, are capitalized and amortized over an estimated useful life of three years, and are included in property and equipment, net on the consolidated balance sheets. During the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we capitalized $2.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively. Amortization of previously capitalized amounts was $2.2 million and $1.3 million for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Costs related to the design or maintenance of internal use software are expensed as incurred.
Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; instead, we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We do not account for lease components (e.g., fixed payments to use the underlying lease asset) separately from the non-lease components (e.g., fixed payments for common-area maintenance costs and other items that transfer a good or service). Some of our leases include variable lease payments, which primarily result from changes in consumer price and other market-based indices, which are generally updated annually, and maintenance and usage charges. These variable payments are excluded from the calculation of our lease assets and lease liabilities.
We utilize the interest rate implicit in the lease to determine the lease liability when the interest rate can be determined. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation at fair value in accordance with ASC 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the recognition of the cost of employee, director and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity over the period the employee, director or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award. Stock-based compensation is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Stock-based compensation for stock awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods and stock-based compensation for stock options is recognized using the accelerated recognition method. Forfeitures are recognized in the periods they occur. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in corporate general and administrative expense on the statement of operations.
Treasury Stock
Treasury stock, representing shares of our common stock that have been repurchased after having been issued, are recorded at cost. Converting outstanding shares to treasury shares does not reduce the number of shares issued but does reduce the number of shares outstanding.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Accounts at banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, our bank account balances exceeded federally insured limits, however, we have not incurred losses related to these deposits.
Income Taxes
We file federal and state income tax returns in accordance with the applicable rules of each jurisdiction. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740 - Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). The provision for income taxes includes federal, state, and local income taxes currently payable, and deferred taxes. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable amounts in years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. In accordance with ASC 740, we recognize the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. We measure recognized income tax positions
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. We reflect changes in recognition or measurement in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The ASU requires that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet or exceed a quantitative threshold. Additionally, it requires all entities disclose the following information about income taxes paid on an annual basis: (1) the year-to-date amounts of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes and (2) the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted this guidance prospectively in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 with no material impact to our consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement expenses (Subtopic 220-40). This ASU requires disclosure about significant expense categories, including but not limited to, inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and selling expenses. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption permitted. This ASU is applicable to our fiscal year ending March 31, 2027. The transition method may be either prospective or retrospective. We are still evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which introduces a practical expedient for the application of the current expected credit loss model to current accounts receivable and contract assets. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. This ASU is applicable to our fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2026, with early application permitted. The transition method is prospective. We do not expect the guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU updates the cost capitalization threshold for internal-use software development costs by removing all references to software project development stages and providing new guidance on how to evaluate whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. This ASU is applicable to our fiscal year beginning April 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted. The transition method may be prospective, modified, or retrospective. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 to amend the guidance in Interim Reporting (Topic 270). The amendments in this update clarify current interim disclosure requirements and provide a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures. The update also incorporates a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events that occur after the end of the last annual reporting period. This update is effective for interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, though early adoption is permitted. This ASU is applicable to our fiscal year beginning April 1, 2028 and we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

NOTE 3 – INCOME/(LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
We calculate basic income/(loss) per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock equivalents unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase the income per share. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options (using the treasury stock method), the exercise of warrants (using the if-converted method) and the vesting of stock awards.

NOTE 4 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Board of Directors initiated a formal review of strategic alternatives for the Ammunition segment during the year ended March 31, 2025. This review of strategic alternatives resulted in the decision to sell the Ammunition segment. Accordingly, we determined the assets of the Ammunition segment met the criteria for classification as held for sale. Additionally, we determined the ultimate disposal will represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results. As such, the results of the Ammunition segment are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented. The assets and liabilities of the Ammunition segment have been reflected as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. Net proceeds were approximately $42.9 million.
Refer to Note 2 under the caption “Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations” for additional details on accounting criteria for held for sale and discontinued operations treatment.

Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are required to be recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. As of March 31, 2025, we determined that the fair value of the Ammunition segment, including costs to sell was lower than its carrying value and we recorded a $45.8 million impairment. The fair value of the Ammunition segment was estimated using the expected sale price as negotiated with the Buyer.
Capital expenditures related to discontinued operations were $40,000 and $2.1 million for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
During the year ended March 31, 2025, we determined that our Ammunition segment should be classified as held for sale. In connection with the reclassification of the segment's assets and liabilities, we recorded an impairment of $45.8 million. For the impairment charges, we performed an undiscounted cash flow analysis on the asset group and determined that net carrying values exceeded the estimated undiscounted future cash flow. We estimated the fair value of the asset group based on a discounted cash flow method and recorded an impairment for asset groups where the fair value was lower than its carrying value. The significant estimates

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
used in the discounted cash flow methodology, which are based on level 3 inputs, include our expectations for projected cash flow to be generated from the asset group. The total impairment included a write-down of inventory of $16.9 million based on an analysis of liquidation values and obsolescence.

NOTE 6 – REVOLVING LOAN
On December 29, 2023, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Sunflower Agreement”) by and among the Company and other borrowers party to the agreement, the lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) and Sunflower Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Lenders provided us a revolving loan (“Revolving Loan”) in the principal amount of the lesser of (a) $20.0 million and (b) the borrowing base (a formula based on certain amounts owed to borrower for goods sold or services provided and eligible inventory). The proceeds of loans under the Sunflower Agreement could be used for working capital, general corporate purposes, permitted acquisitions, to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the revolving loan and to fund our general business requirements.
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Revolving Loan bore an interest rate of the greater of (x) 3.50% and (y) Term SOFR, plus 3.00% (the “Revolving Facility Applicable Rate”) and was computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Except in an event of default, advances under the Revolving Loan bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at the Revolving Facility Applicable Rate. Interest was due and payable on the first calendar day of each month during the term of the Sunflower Agreement. We were also obligated to pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, an origination fee, prepayment fee, unused facility fee, collateral monitoring fee and Lender expenses.
On April 18, 2025, we entered into a Consent and Second Amendment to the Sunflower Agreement (the "Second Sunflower Loan Amendment"). Pursuant to the Second Sunflower Loan Amendment, we and the Agent agreed to, among other things: (i) release the Agent’s security interest in all collateral securing our obligations under the Sunflower Agreement upon consummation of the sale of the Ammunition Manufacturing Business; (ii) reduce all amounts available under the Revolving Loan to zero dollars as of the effective date of the Second Sunflower Loan Amendment; (iii) enter into an Amended and Restated Revolving Line Promissory Note in the amount of $5.0 million, representing 100% of the Revolving Line Commitment (as defined in the Sunflower Agreement) available under the Sunflower Agreement, executed by the Company in favor of Agent as of the effective date of the Second Sunflower Loan Amendment; and (iv) certain other amendments to the Company's customary covenants and obligations under the Sunflower Agreement that only take effect in the event the Revolving Line Availability (as defined in the Sunflower Agreement) is greater than zero dollars.
Upon signing of the Second Sunflower Loan Amendment, the Revolving Line Availability was reduced to zero dollars and will remain at zero dollars unless we provide the Agent with a security interest in new collateral or otherwise further amend the Sunflower Agreement.
On May 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Sunflower Agreement (the “Third Sunflower Loan Amendment”). Pursuant to the Third Sunflower Loan Amendment, we and the Agent agreed to change the definitions in the Sunflower Agreement of: (i) “AMMO, Inc” to “Outdoor Holding Company,” (ii) “Ammo” to “OHC,” (iii) “AMMO TECHNOLOGIES, INC” to “OHC TECHNOLOGIES, INC,” and (iv) "AMMO MUNITIONS, INC” to “OHC MUNITIONS, INC.”
We did not have an outstanding balance on our Revolving Loan as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.
NOTE 7 – LEASES
We lease office space in Scottsdale, AZ and Atlanta, GA under contracts we classify as operating leases. None of our leases are financing leases. The Scottsdale lease extension is effective until 2029 and does not include a renewal option.
On September 17, 2025, we signed a lease for 2,660 square feet of mixed-use warehouse space in Marietta, GA. The lease commenced on October 1, 2025 and expires in October 2028.
Lease expense for the year ended March 31, 2026 was $605,804 including $564,866 of operating lease expense and $40,938 of other lease associated expenses such as association dues, taxes, utilities, and other month to month rentals. Consolidated lease expense for the year ended March 31, 2025 was $656,674 including $653,420 of operating lease expense and $3,255 of other lease associated expenses such as association dues, taxes, utilities, and other month to month rentals.
Lease Impairment
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we vacated our Scottsdale office. As we have been unable to sublease the property, we are working to negotiate a termination with the landlord. As a result, we recognized a write-down of the right-of-use asset of $0.7 million, which is reported in corporate general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Lease Disclosures
The weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate for operating leases were 1.69 years and 10.0%, respectively, at March 31, 2026 and were 3.1 years and 10.0%, respectively, at March 31, 2025.

NOTE 8 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Gemini Accounts Receivable
Through our acquisition of Gemini Direct Investments, LLC ("Gemini") in 2021, a related party relationship was created through Mr. Urvan, then a director and now our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, by virtue of his ownership of entities that provided services to Gemini. There was $201,646 included in our accounts receivable at September 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025 from entities owned by Mr. Urvan. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we determined that these amounts were uncollectible after evaluating the age of the receivables, historical collection experience, incomplete billing records, and the financial condition and operating history of the related entities. As a result, the $201,646 included in our accounts receivable was written off against our reserve for credit losses. The determination of uncollectibility and the related write-off were reviewed and approved by the Company's Audit Committee, and Mr. Urvan did not participate in the review or approval of such determination and the related write-off.
Warrants
7M Warrant
As partial consideration for the settlement in the Delaware Litigation (as defined and described in Note 14, "Contingencies"), on May 30, 2025 we issued to an affiliated designee of Mr. Urvan, a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 7.0 million shares of common stock (the "Warrant Shares"). The Warrant has a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.81 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant, the Warrant is exercisable at the holder’s discretion, in whole or in part, on or after November 30, 2025, provided that the Warrant automatically vests and becomes exercisable in certain circumstances, such as bankruptcy, liquidation, termination of the business or other similar events, as well as upon consummation of any Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Warrant).
Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant, the Warrant Shares may not, subject to certain exceptions, be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise distributed without prior approval from a majority of the disinterested and independent members of the Board of Directors, provided that on each of the first three anniversaries of May 30, 2025, the holder may transfer 25% of the total issuable shares under the Warrant.
We evaluated the Warrant in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). We determined that the Warrant meets the criteria for equity classification since the Warrant is indexed to the Company's equity and includes settlement in shares. The Warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using a 70% volatility, risk free rate of 4.15%, an assumed dividend of zero and a term of five years with a resulting fair value of $7,094,926. The Warrant was recorded as additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026.
13M Warrant
On September 17, 2025, the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors approved the exercise of the Prepayment Option on Note 2 (as defined and described below), and we issued a warrant (the “Additional Warrant”) to purchase 13.0 million shares of common stock (the “Additional Warrant Shares”) in satisfaction of Note 2. The Additional Warrant has a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Additional Warrant, the warrant is exercisable at the holder’s discretion, in whole or in part, on or after September 17, 2026, provided that the Additional Warrant automatically vests and becomes exercisable in certain circumstances, such as bankruptcy, liquidation, termination of the business or other similar events, as well as upon consummation of any Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Additional Warrant ). Except with respect to the exercise price and the vesting date, the terms of the Additional Warrant and the Warrant are substantially similar.
We evaluated the Additional Warrant in accordance with ASC 815. We determined that the Additional Warrant meets the criteria for equity classification since the Additional Warrant is indexed to the Company's equity and includes settlement in shares. The Additional Warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using a 67.49% volatility, risk free rate of 3.62% and a term of five years with a resulting fair value of $12,253,800. The Additional Warrant was recorded as additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026.
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
$12M Note Payable
As partial consideration for the settlement in the Delaware Litigation , on May 30, 2025, we also issued to Mr. Urvan's affiliated designee, an unsecured promissory note for a principal amount of $12.0 million (“Note 1”). Note 1 bears interest at 6.50% per annum (subject to a 2.00% increase during an event of default), which interest is payable to the holder annually on May 30, beginning on May 30, 2026 (each interest payment due date, an “Interest Payment Date”). The unpaid principal balance of Note 1 and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon is due on May 30, 2037.
Pursuant to the terms of Note 1, we are required to make annual prepayments such that $1,000,000 (inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest then due and payable) is paid to the holder on each Interest Payment Date. We have the right to prepay, prior to May 30, 2037, all or any part of the principal or interest of Note 1 without penalty. In addition, the holder may not request early repayment of Note 1 prior to May 30, 2027. Any optional prepayment by us must be approved by a majority vote of the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors as then constituted.
We evaluated Note 1 in accordance with ASC 470, Debt ("ASC 470"). Note 1 was initially recorded at its calculated fair value of $9,866,679 with a resulting debt discount recorded of $2,133,321 on the consolidated balance sheet for the period ended June 30, 2025. Note 1 fair value was calculated as the net present value using a discount rate of 9.40%. The debt discount is being amortized over the life of the note using the effective interest rate method.
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we recorded interest expense on Note 1 of $819,550.
$39M Note Payable
As partial consideration for the settlement in the Delaware Litigation on May 30, 2025, we also issued to Mr. Urvan's affiliated designee, an unsecured promissory note in a principal amount of $39.0 million (“Note 2” and together with Note 1, the “Notes”). Note 2 bore interest at 4.62% per annum (subject to a 2.00% increase during an event of default), which was payable to the holder annually on the Interest Payment Date. The unpaid principal balance of Note 2 and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon was due on May 30, 2035.
Pursuant to the terms of Note 2, we were required to make annual prepayments of the outstanding principal amount on Note 2 equal to $1.95 million on each Interest Payment Date. We had the right to prepay, prior to May 30, 2035, all or any part of the principal or interest of Note 2 without penalty. In addition, the holder could not request early repayment of Note 2 prior to May 30, 2027. We also had the option, at any time prior to May 30, 2026 (unless extended by mutual consent of the holder and us), to prepay all, but not less than all, of the then-outstanding principal amount of Note 2 and accrued and unpaid interest thereon in exchange for the issuance of the Additional Warrant, provided that we must first obtain stockholder approval of the issuance of the Additional Warrant and the Additional Warrant Shares pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. Upon issuance of the Additional Warrant, all remaining obligations under Note 2 would be deemed satisfied with the same force and effect as a prepayment of all principal and accrued and unpaid interest under Note 2. Any optional prepayment by us, whether in cash or by issuance of the Additional Warrant, was required to be approved by a majority vote of the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors as then constituted.
We evaluated Note 2 in accordance with ASC 470. Note 2 was initially recorded at its calculated fair value of $12,105,624 with a resulting debt discount recorded of $26,894,376 on the consolidated balance sheet for the period ended June 30, 2025. Note 2 was valued using a Binomial Lattice Model with a 9.60% discount rate and a 70% volatility along with a probability of exercise of the Prepayment Option. The debt discount would be amortized over the life of the note using the effective interest rate method. We also evaluated the option to call Note 2 by issuing the Additional Warrant Shares in accordance with ASC 815. We determined that the call option is clearly and closely related to the debt host, therefore, the call option is not required to be bifurcated.
On September 17, 2025, the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors approved the exercise of the Prepayment Option and we issued the Additional Warrant in satisfaction of Note 2. The prepayment of Note 2 was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt and a gain of $801,894 was recognized on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2026.
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we recorded interest expense on Note 2 of $950,070.

Letter of Credit
On July 26, 2023, we obtained a $1.6 million letter of credit with The Northern Trust Company (“Northern Trust”) for collateral for a bond related to a judgment assessed to GunBroker. On July 17, 2023, we generated a $1.6 million certificate of deposit with Northern Trust for security on the letter of credit. The initial term of the certificate of deposit was twelve months and included interest of approximately 5%.
Effective July 12, 2024, the letter of credit with Northern Trust was extended until July 26, 2025. Effective July 7, 2025 the letter of credit was moved to Sunflower Bank with an expiration date of July 7, 2026. The term of the certificate of deposit is twelve months and includes interest of approximately 4%. Per the terms of the merger agreement with Gemini, Mr. Urvan was required to indemnify any losses related to the underlying judgment if the appeal is unsuccessful. As a function of the 2025 Urvan Settlement Agreement, the losses related to the judgment are no longer indemnified by Mr. Urvan.
Triton Settlement Agreement Payment
On June 24, 2024, we entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the “Triton Settlement Agreement”) with Triton Value Partners, LLC, Donald Gasgarth, Paul Freischlag, Jr., Jeff Zwitter (the “Plaintiffs,” and together with the Defendants and the Company, the “Parties” or, individually, “Party”), and Steven Urvan and TVP Investments LLC (the “Urvan Defendants”) and GunBroker.com, LLC, IA TECH, LLC, and GB Investments, Inc. (the “GunBroker Defendants,” and collectively with the Urvan Defendants, the “Defendants”) to fully resolve and settle all disputes and claims related to the litigation between the Defendants and Plaintiffs captioned Triton Value Partners, LLC et al. v. TVP Investments, LLC et al., Cobb County Superior Court, CAFN 18104869 (the “Action”). Pursuant to the Triton Settlement Agreement, the GunBroker Defendants agreed to pay the Plaintiffs $8,000,000 (the “Settlement Amount”) in a single lump sum payment. We agreed to tender the Settlement Amount to an escrow agent on behalf of the GunBroker Defendants within 45 days of the Triton Settlement Agreement’s execution. In connection with the Merger Agreement, on April 30, 2021, the Company and Urvan entered into a Pledge and Escrow Agreement (the “Pledge and Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which ten stock certificates in the name of Urvan, with each certificate representing $2.8 million worth of shares of the Company’s common stock as of the date of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement (the “Pledged Securities”) were placed in escrow pending resolution of the Action. Pursuant to the Triton Settlement Agreement, a portion of the Pledged Securities in the form of a stock certificate for 2,857,143 shares (the “Stock Certificate”) were sent to the Company’s transfer agent for cancellation on September 30, 2024.
As a result of the contingency recognized for the Triton Settlement Agreement, we had recorded a receivable of $4,800,000 that was re-classed to treasury stock upon Mr. Urvan’s transfer of the shares related to the settlement payment to the Company on September 30, 2024. During the year ended March 31, 2025, we recognized the value of shares returned to the Company in lieu of the settlement payment. As of March 31, 2025, Mr. Urvan transferred the shares to us and they have been reclassified to treasury stock.
Tenor Litigation
Pursuant to the merger agreement with Gemini, Mr. Urvan was granted sole and exclusive control over the prosecution, defense and settlement of certain designated litigation matters, including the litigation captioned GunBroker.com, LLC v. Tenor Capital Partners, No. 1:20-CV-00613 (N.D. GA.) (the "Tenor Litigation"), and the right to receive any amounts recovered by or awarded to the Company with respect to such matters. In addition, the merger agreement with Gemini required Mr. Urvan to indemnify, defend, hold harmless and reimburse the Company with respect to designated matters, including the Tenor Litigation. Subsequently, pursuant to the 2025 Settlement Agreement, the Company released Mr. Urvan from certain of these indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligations under the merger agreement. In April 2026, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit reversed the district court's grant
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
of summary judgment on a breach of fiduciary duty claim asserted by GunBroker in the Tenor Litigation and remanded that claim for further proceedings.
In June 2026, the Company and its subsidiary Speedlight Group I, LLC entered into a side letter agreement with Mr. Urvan confirming his right to control the prosecution, defense, and settlement of the Tenor Litigation was not extinguished by the 2025 Settlement Agreement and clarifying that, consistent with the intent of the merger agreement and the 2025 Settlement Agreement, (i) Mr. Urvan is solely responsible for all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the prosecution, defense and settlement of the Tenor Litigation, (ii) the Company has no obligation to fund, advance, reimburse or indemnify any cost, expense or liability arising from or related to the Tenor Litigation, and (iii) Mr. Urvan may not settle the Tenor Litigation on terms that would result in any obligation or restriction binding upon the Company or its subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors. The side letter does not amend the merger agreement with Gemini or the 2025 Settlement Agreement and does not revive or reinstate any indemnification or similar obligations of Mr. Urvan that were released pursuant to the 2025 Settlement Agreement. If Mr. Urvan determines to pursue a damage claim for breach of fiduciary duty in the full amount permitted by applicable law, such amount is likely to exceed the $120,000 disclosure threshold of Item 404 of Regulation S-K. The side letter was reviewed and approved by the Company's Audit Committee.
NOTE 9 – PREFERRED STOCK
On May 18, 2021, we filed a Certificate of Designations (the “Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to establish the preferences, voting powers, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, terms and conditions of redemption and other terms and conditions of the Series A Preferred Stock.
The Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), as to dividend rights and rights as to the distribution of assets upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, ranks: (1) senior to all classes or series of common stock and to all other capital stock issued by the Company expressly designated as ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock; (2) on parity with any future class or series of the Company’s capital stock expressly designated as ranking on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock; (3) junior to any future class or series of the Company’s capital stock expressly designated as ranking senior to the Series A Preferred Stock; and (4) junior to all the Company’s existing and future indebtedness.
The Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and is not subject to mandatory redemption or any sinking fund. In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the holders of shares for the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to be paid out of the Company’s assets legally available for distribution to its stockholders (i.e., after satisfaction of all the Company’s liabilities to creditors, if any) an amount equal to $25.00 per share of the Series A Preferred Stock, plus any amount equal to any accumulated and unpaid dividends to the date of payment before any distribution or payment may be made to holders of shares of common stock or any other class of or series of the Company’s capital stock ranking, as to rights to the distribution of assets upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, junior to the Series A Preferred Stock.
We pay cumulative cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee of our Board of Directors), only out of funds legally available for payment of dividends. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock accrue on the stated amount of $25.00 per share of the Series A Preferred Stock at a rate per annum equal to 8.75% (equivalent to $2.1875 per year), payable quarterly in arrears. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock declared by our Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee of our Board of Directors) are payable quarterly in arrears on or around March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15.
Generally, the Series A Preferred Stock is not redeemable by the Company prior to May 18, 2026. However, upon a change of control or de-listing event (each as defined in the Certificate of Designations), the Company will have a special option to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock for a limited period of time.
The following is a summary of the dividends paid on the Series A Preferred Stock in the year ended March 31, 2026:

NOTE 10 – CAPITAL STOCK
Our authorized capital consists of 200,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.
Share Repurchase Program
On January 4, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized a discretionary share repurchase program pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $15.0 million of our outstanding common stock over a period of twelve months. Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, and other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including pursuant to one or more Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The timing, volume, and value of any repurchases will be determined by management based on factors including market conditions, the Company’s liquidity and capital needs, and other factors deemed relevant. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board or management. Any repurchases under the program will be funded from the Company’s existing cash balances, future operating cash flow, or other legally available funds.
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 513,925 shares of common stock, costing $1.0 million, including broker commissions and fees. The Inflation Reduction Act imposed a nondeductible 1% excise tax on the net value of stock repurchases. During the year ended March 31, 2026, the excise tax on the net share repurchases was not material.
As of March 31, 2026, the share repurchase program had $14.0 million in remaining authorized funds.
Warrants
There were no warrants exercised during the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Our effective tax rates were (1.0%) and (10.8%) for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2026, the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to recovery of unrecognized tax benefits and changes in our valuation allowance. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we recorded a valuation allowance of $36.4 million due to uncertainty regarding the timing and utilization of losses in future periods. During the year ended March 31, 2025, the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to employee stock awards and changes in valuation allowance. During the year ended March 31, 2025, we recorded a valuation allowance of $36.0 million due to uncertainty regarding the timing and utilization of losses in future periods.

We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC No. 740-10-25. ASC No. 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under ASC No. 740-10-25, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amount recorded, such differences impact income tax expense in the period in which such determination is made. Interest and penalties, if any, related to accrued liabilities for potential tax assessments are included in income tax expense. ASC No. 740-10-25 also requires management to evaluate tax positions taken and recognize a liability if we have taken uncertain tax positions that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by applicable taxing authorities.
We have evaluated tax positions taken by us as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 in accordance with the recognition and measurement framework within ASC No. 740-10, and have concluded that the benefits associated with certain tax positions should not be recognized on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025. As such, we recorded an additional income tax payable on the consolidated balance sheet of $1.9 million as of March 31, 2025. Included within this amount is accrued penalties and interest of $0.3 million. We record penalties and interest associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we took corrective action with the IRS that now meets the more likely than not standard and therefore recognized a tax benefit related to the tax position and reversed the associated penalties. We recorded a reversal of income tax payable in the amount of $1.6 million and accrued penalties of $0.3 million in the year ended March 31, 2026.
The tax periods ended March 31, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 are subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent or introduces certain changes to the Internal Revenue Code, including 100% bonus depreciation, the deductibility of interest expense, and expensing domestic research costs. ASC No 740 requires that the effect of changes in tax rates and laws be recognized the period in which the legislation is enacted. The impact of this change primarily resulted in a reclassification from current to deferred taxes.
NOTE 12 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS
On April 30, 2021, we entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, SpeedLight Group I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Gemini Direct Investments, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ("Gemini"), whereby SpeedLight Group I, LLC merged with and into Gemini, with SpeedLight Group I, LLC surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger"). At the time of the Merger, Gemini had nine subsidiaries, all of which are related to Gemini’s ownership of GunBroker, an online auction marketplace dedicated to firearms, hunting, shooting, and related products. The intangible assets acquired include a tradename, customer relationships, intellectual property, software, and domain names.
Total amortization expense of our intangible assets was $12,129,984 and $12,121,433 for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

NOTE 13 – SEGMENTS
We define our segments as those operations whose results our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources. As described in Note 2 under the caption “Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations,” as well as Note 4,"Discontinued Operations", effective as of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we no longer report the Ammunition segment; we now report our financial performance based on one segment.
Our CODM is our chief executive officer. The CODM assesses the performance of the Company and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). The CODM uses consolidated EBITDA to analyze how profitable the business is, including reviewing in comparison to budget and in comparison to the prior year performance when making decisions on allocating capital and resources. Significant expense categories regularly provided to and reviewed by the CODM are those presented in the consolidated statement of operations.
Our CODM does not use asset book values in assessing performance or allocating resources for our operating segments and therefore this information is not disclosed.

NOTE 14 – CONTINGENCIES
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued that may result in a loss to us but will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. We assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, we evaluate the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims and the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimated, the estimated liability would be accrued in our consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Delaware Litigation
On April 30, 2023, Steve Urvan filed suit in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the "Delaware Court") against the Company, and certain Company directors, former directors, employees, former employees and consultants. At the time the lawsuit was filed, Mr. Urvan was a member of the Board of Directors and our largest stockholder. Mr. Urvan now serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Urvan’s claims included fraudulent inducement, unjust enrichment and violations of the Arizona Securities Act. The suit sought a court order for partial rescission of the Company’s acquisition of GunBroker.com and compensatory damages of not less than $140 million. On August 1, 2023, the Company filed a separate lawsuit against Mr. Urvan in the Delaware Court alleging, among other things, that Mr. Urvan committed fraud in connection with the GunBroker.com sale, and that Mr. Urvan breached his indemnification obligations to the Company after the sale. On September 11, 2023, the Delaware Court consolidated the Company’s lawsuit against Mr. Urvan with Mr. Urvan’s lawsuit against the Company and the individual defendants (the “Delaware Litigation”).
On December 20, 2024, the Board of Directors held a meeting, during which it voted to pursue a settlement and voted to approve terms outlined in a non-binding term sheet. On May 21, 2025, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Mr. Urvan and certain other parties, which became effective on May 30, 2025, pursuant to which the parties to the settlement agreement filed a Stipulation of Voluntary Dismissal With Prejudice dismissing, with prejudice, all claims asserted in the Delaware Litigation. As partial consideration for the settlement, the Company issued the Warrant and the Notes to an affiliate of Mr. Urvan. We recorded a settlement contingency of $29.1 million during the year ended March 31, 2025. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we recorded the Warrant, the Additional Warrant and the Notes issued to an affiliate of Mr. Urvan in the settlement. Please see Note 8, “Related Party Transactions,” for additional information regarding the Warrant, the Additional Warrant and the Notes.
SEC Investigation
The Company faced an inestimable loss contingency stemming from a previously-pending investigation of the Staff of the SEC Division of Enforcement (the "SEC Investigation"). The Company produced documents responsive to document subpoenas and cooperated by, among other things, providing other information to the SEC Staff on a voluntary basis. The SEC Staff investigated the Company’s: (i) valuation of, and accounting for share-based compensation awards to employees, non-employee directors and other
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
service providers, and issued in exchange for goods and services; (ii) capitalization of certain share issuance costs; (iii) disclosure of the valuation of equity-based compensation paid to certain executives; (iv) disclosure of certain executive officers and related party transactions; and (v) disclosure concerning the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The Company made an Offer of Settlement to the SEC, and on December 15, 2025, the SEC instituted settled cease-and-desist proceedings that fully concluded and resolved the SEC Investigation. Under the terms of the settlement, the SEC did not impose a civil penalty or any other monetary relief. Without admitting or denying the findings of the cease-and-desist order except as to the SEC’s jurisdiction, the Company agreed to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of specified provisions of the federal securities laws and rules promulgated thereunder.
Vista
On July 28, 2025, Vista Outdoor Sales, LLC d/b/a The Kinetic Group Sales ("Vista") filed a civil action against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota alleging a breach of contract from an OEM Supplier and Ammunition Purchase Option Agreement dated August 9, 2021. After the Company’s divestiture of the Ammunition Business, it could no longer purchase ammunition manufacturing components.
On November 21, 2025, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Vista Settlement and Release”) with Vista to resolve the matter. Under the terms of the Vista Settlement and Release, the Company agreed to pay Vista an aggregate of $2.75 million in cash in twelve equal quarterly installments, with the first installment due December 1, 2025 and subsequent installments due quarterly. Vista was required to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice in return for a release of all claims relating to the matter.
As of March 31, 2026, we had a liability of $2.3 million, $0.9 million of which is recorded in accounts payable and $1.4 million of which is recorded in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we made payments of $0.5 million in accordance with the Vista Settlement and Release.
Weiland
On May 20, 2026, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release ("Settlement and Release") with Wieland Rolled Products North America Buffalo, Inc. (“Wieland”) to resolve disputes and claims arising out of or relating to cancellation of purchase orders in connection with our sale of the Ammunition segment.
Under the terms of the Settlement and Release, we agreed to pay Wieland $0.2 million in cash by May 31, 2026. The parties agreed to mutual releases of all claims relating to the matter. The related purchase order, order acknowledgments, and standard terms and conditions of sale were terminated and cancelled as a function of the settlement. The Settlement and Release did not constitute an admission of liability or fault by either party.
As of March 31, 2026, we had a liability of $0.2 million recorded in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet.
DCP Matter
On January 18, 2024, Innovative Computer Professionals, Inc. d/b/a Digital Cash Processing (“DCP”) filed a civil action in Minnesota state court against Outdoors Online, LLC d/b/a GunBroker.com (“GunBroker.com”) for breach of contract (the “MN Action”). In the MN Action, DCP alleged that GunBroker.com breached a May 2021 contract, pursuant to which DCP was to provide specified digital payment processing services, and it alleged $100 million in damages. On February 7, 2024, GunBroker.com removed the MN Action to the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota (Case No. 24-CV-00373-DWF-DTS). On February 14, 2024, GunBroker.com moved to dismiss the MN Action for lack of personal jurisdiction and for failure to adequately state a claim, or, in the alternative, to transfer the MN Action to the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (the “Motion”). The court denied the Motion and GunBroker filed its Answer and Counterclaims. The Company and DCP engaged in fact and expert discovery for several months.
On February 20, 2026, we entered into a settlement agreement with DCP, resolving the MN Action. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company paid to DCP $4.4 million on February 27, 2026 in full and final settlement of the MN Action. Upon payment, the parties filed a stipulated dismissal of the MN Action with prejudice. The settlement agreement includes customary mutual releases, but does not release certain non-affiliate third-party contractors. The settlement does not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
Sales Taxes
We are subject to sales and use tax audits, inquiries and other proceedings by state and local taxing authorities in the ordinary course of business. As of March 31, 2026, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries were the subject of open sales and use tax audits or related administrative proceedings in a number of jurisdictions for matters involving the Company's GunBroker.com marketplace business. These matters are in various stages of audit, protest or administrative review.
OUTDOOR HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We assessed these matters under the loss contingency framework described above. We believe that an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible but not probable. With respect to the open matters for which no assessment has been asserted we are unable to reasonably estimate the amount or range of any reasonably possible loss given the early stage of those proceedings and the unresolved legal and factual issues. Because the criteria for accrual under the framework described above have not been met, we have not recorded an accrual for these matters as of March 31, 2026. An unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could result in additional tax, interest or penalties that could be material to our consolidated financial statements, results of operations or cash flows.
There were no other known contingencies as of March 31, 2026.
NOTE 15 – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
We provides defined contribution plans covering employees subject to minimum age and service guidelines. Eligible employees may contribute a percentage of their annual compensation subject to statutory guidelines. We make non-discretionary contributions to the plans, which amounted to $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and are included in cash-based compensation in the consolidated statements of operations. Under the terms of the plans, a participant becomes 100% vested in the Company's matching contributions after one year of credited service.
NOTE 16 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Effective April 1, 2026, we terminated the Sunflower Agreement and did not incur an early termination penalty. The facility had no outstanding balance at the time of termination, no collateral, and the termination does not materially impact the Company’s liquidity or capital resources. As a result of the termination, the Company is no longer subject to any of the debt covenants imposed under the Sunflower Agreement.
