The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, including AOB Products Company, or AOBPC, BTI Tools LLC, Crimson Trace Corporation, Ultimate Survival Technologies, LLC, or ust, and AOB Consulting (Shenzhen), Co., LTD. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. In connection with the separate presentation of other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets, amounts previously reported as prepaid expenses and other current assets have been reclassified to separate captions for prepaid expenses and other current assets. Corresponding reclassifications were also made within operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.

In preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, we make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our significant estimates include various sales adjustments for discounts, returns, allowances, and other customer incentives; provisions for excess and obsolete inventory; accruals for freight, duty, and tariff costs on international inventory purchases and related inventory valuation adjustments; estimates related to the recognition and measurement of tariff refund recoveries and related receivables; valuation of long-lived intangible assets; valuation of stock-based compensation awards; and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

In 2025, the U.S. Administration imposed a series of tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (“IEEPA”). On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court issued a ruling striking down tariffs previously imposed under IEEPA. Immediately following the Supreme Court ruling, the U.S. government initiated new tariffs under Section 122 of the Trade Act ("Section 122 tariffs") which have been in effect since February 24, 2026. We continue to monitor and evaluate these developments and assess their potential impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In March 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade ("CIT") issued an order directing U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") to process refunds of certain IEEPA tariffs. In April 2026, the CBP released a new system to process IEEPA tariff refunds, allowing importers to submit refund claims. We are seeking refunds of tariffs previously paid under IEEPA and we account for such claims under the loss recovery framework by analogy to ASC 410-30 - Environmental Obligations. A receivable is recognized when recovery is considered probable and reasonably estimable. Recoveries are recognized in the same financial statement line item as the underlying tariff costs or as an adjustment to inventory when the related inventory remains on hand. We believe it is probable that we will recover the IEEPA tariffs previously paid and have recognized an IEEPA tariff refund receivable under the loss recovery accounting model.

The ultimate timing and amount of recoveries remain subject to review and processing by governmental authorities and could be affected by future legal, regulatory, or administrative developments. In addition, there continues to be uncertainty regarding existing and proposed tariff regimes, including the potential imposition, modification, suspension, or invalidation of tariffs under various statutory authorities. The Company continues to monitor tariff-related developments and assess their potential impact on its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts. As of April 30, 2026, all of our accounts exceeded federally insured limits.

We maintain an allowance for credit losses related to trade accounts receivable for future expected credit losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of our customers to make required payments. We estimate our allowance for credit losses based on relevant information such as historical experience, current conditions, and future expectation and in relation to a representative pool of assets consisting of a large number of customers with similar risk characteristics and similar financial assets. We adjust the allowance as appropriate to reflect differences in current conditions as well as changes in forecasted macroeconomic conditions. We write off trade accounts receivable when they are determined to be uncollectible after considering the facts and circumstances specific to the customer and after all collection efforts have been exhausted. Recoveries of amounts previously written off are recorded when received.

In November 2020, we entered into a factoring arrangement with a financial institution specifically designed to factor trade receivables with a certain customer that has extended payment terms, which are traditional to the customer’s industry. Under this factoring arrangement, from time to time, we sell this customer’s trade receivables at a discount on a non-recourse basis. We account for these transactions as sales and cash proceeds are included in cash provided by operating activities in the statement of cash flows. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, we recorded an immaterial amount of factoring fees related to factoring transactions, which are included in other (expense)/income, net on our consolidated statements of operations.

We state inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We determine cost on the first-in, first-out method and net of discounts or rebates received from vendors. Provisions for potential nonsalable inventory due to excess stock or obsolescence are based upon a detailed review of inventory, past history, and expected future usage. We evaluate quantities that make up our current inventory against past and future demand and market conditions to determine excess or slow-moving inventory that may be sold below cost. For each product category, we estimate the market value of the inventory comprising that category based on current and projected selling prices. If the projected market value is less than cost, we will record a provision adjustment to reflect the lower value of the inventory. This methodology recognizes projected inventory losses at the time such losses are evident rather than at the time goods are actually sold. The projected market value of the inventory may decrease because of consumer preferences or loss of key contracts, among other events.

We record property, plant, and equipment, consisting of leasehold improvements, machinery, equipment, hardware, furniture, and fixtures at cost and depreciate them using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. We recognize depreciation expense for leasehold improvements over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease terms, and include them in depreciation and amortization expense. We charge expenditures for maintenance and repairs to earnings as incurred, and we capitalize additions, renewals, and betterments. Upon the retirement, or other disposition of property and equipment, we remove the related cost and accumulated depreciation from the respective accounts and include any gain or loss in operations. A summary of the estimated useful lives is as follows:

We have significant long-lived assets, which are susceptible to valuation adjustments as a result of changes in various factors or conditions. The most significant long-lived assets are property, plant, and equipment; right-of-use assets; developed technology; customer relationships; patents; trademarks; and trade names, which is our long lived asset group. Our long-lived assets are primarily located in the United States with some tooling and equipment located in Asia. We amortize all finite-lived assets either on a straight-line basis or based upon patterns in which we expect to utilize the economic benefits of such assets. We initially determine the values of assets by a risk-adjusted, discounted cash flow approach.

We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. When such evaluations indicate that the related future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying values of the asset group, such carrying values are reduced to fair value and this adjusted carrying value becomes the asset’s new cost basis. We determine the initial fair value of our long-lived assets, primarily using future anticipated cash flows that are directly associated with and are expected to arise as a direct result of the use and eventual disposition of the asset, or asset group, discounted using an interest rate commensurate with the risk involved. Based on the results of this evaluation, on an undiscounted cash flow basis, there were no indications of impairment of our long-lived asset group in fiscal 2026, 2025, or 2024.

We recognize revenue for the sale of our products at the point in time when the control of ownership has transferred to the customer and our primary performance obligation is the sale of finished goods to wholesale, retail, and direct-to-consumer customers. The transfer of control typically occurs at a point in time based on consideration of when the customer has (i) a payment obligation, (ii) physical possession of goods has been received, (iii) legal title to goods has passed, (iv) risks and rewards of ownership of goods has passed to the customer, and (v) the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product. The timing of revenue recognition occurs either on shipment or delivery of goods based on contractual terms with the customer, as this is when transfer of control occurs and the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product, has title and significant risks and rewards of ownership of the product, and physical possession of the product has been transferred. Revenue recorded excludes sales tax charged to retail customers as we are considered a pass-through conduit for collecting and remitting sales taxes.

The duration of contractual arrangements with customers in our wholesale and retail channels is typically less than one year. Payment terms with customers are typically between 20 and 90 days, with a discount available in certain cases for early payment. For contracts with discounted terms, we determine the transaction price upon establishment of the contract that contains the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product purchased. We estimate variable consideration relative to the amount of cash discounts to which customers are likely to be entitled. In some instances, we provide longer payment terms, particularly as it relates to extended seasonal payment terms for certain hunting-related products, which represent payment terms due in the fall for certain orders of hunting products received in the spring and summer. We do not consider these extended terms to be a significant financing component of the contract because the payment terms are less than one year.

The amount of revenue we recognize reflects the expected consideration to be received for providing the goods or services to customers, which includes estimates for variable consideration. Variable consideration includes allowances for trade term discounts, volume incentives, chargebacks, and product returns. Estimates of variable consideration are determined at contract inception and are constrained to the extent that the inclusion of such variable consideration could result in a significant reversal of cumulative revenue in future periods. We apply the portfolio approach as a practical expedient and utilize the expected value method in determining estimates of variable consideration, based on evaluations of specific product and customer circumstances, historical and anticipated trends, and current economic conditions. We have co-op advertising program expense, which we record within advertising expense, in recognition of a distinct service that we receive from our customers at the retail level which estimates fair value of the service.

In some instances, sales include multiple performance obligations. The most common of these instances relates to sales promotion programs under which customers are entitled to receive a free good or subscription service based upon their purchase of our products, which we have identified as a material right. The fulfillment of these free goods is our responsibility. In such instances, we allocate the revenue of the promotional sales based on the estimated level of participation in the sales promotional program and the timing of the shipment of all of the products included in the promotional program, including the free goods. We recognize subscription revenue ratably over the term of the contract, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the service throughout the period. The net change in contract liabilities for a given period is reported as increase or decrease in accrued expenses on the balance sheet and an increase or decrease to sales on the statement of operations. During the year ended April 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, we recorded an immaterial amount of service revenue and deferred revenue to satisfy certain performance obligations.

Our e-commerce channels include net sales from customers that do not traditionally operate a physical brick-and-mortar store, but generate the majority of their revenue from consumer purchases at their retail websites. Our e-commerce channels also include our direct-to-consumer sales. Our traditional channels include customers that operate primarily out of physical brick and mortar stores and generate the large majority of their revenue from consumer purchases at their brick-and-mortar locations.

Cost of goods sold for our purchased finished goods includes the purchase costs and related overhead. We source most of our purchased finished goods from manufacturers in Asia. Cost of goods sold for our manufactured goods includes all materials, labor, and overhead costs incurred in the production process. Overhead includes all costs related to manufacturing or purchasing finished goods, including costs of planning, purchasing, quality control, depreciation, freight, tariff and duties, royalties, and shrinkage.

We engage in both internal and external research and development, or R&D, in order to remain competitive and to exploit potential untapped market opportunities. We approve prospective R&D projects after analysis of the costs and benefits associated with the potential product. Costs in R&D expense include salaries, materials, utilities, and administrative costs.

We expense advertising costs, primarily consisting of digital, printed, or television advertisements, either as incurred or upon the first occurrence of the advertising. Advertising expense, included in selling, marketing, and distribution expenses, totaled $9.6 million, $10.9 million, and $11.1 million in fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. We have co-op advertising program expense, which we record within advertising expense, in recognition of a distinct service that we receive from our customers at the retail level.

We generally provide either a limited lifetime, four-year, three-year, two-year, or one-year warranty program to the original purchaser of most of our products. We will also repair or replace certain products or parts found to be defective under normal use and service with an item of equivalent value, at our option, without charge during the warranty period. We provide for estimated warranty obligations in the period in which we recognize the related revenue. We quantify and record an estimate for warranty-related costs based on our actual historical claims experience and current repair costs. We make adjustments to accruals as warranty claims data and historical experience warrant.

We occasionally enter into non-cancelable operating leases for office space, distribution facilities, and equipment. Our leases for real estate have initial terms ranging from one to 18 years, generally with renewal options. Leases for equipment typically have initial terms ranging from one to 10 years. Most leases have fixed rentals, with many of the real estate leases requiring additional payments for real estate taxes and occupancy-related costs. See Note 5 – Leases for more information.

We record our liability for estimated incurred losses, related to our self-insured group health insurance program, based on historical claim data in the accompanying consolidated financial statements on an undiscounted basis. While we believe these reserves to be adequate, it is possible that the ultimate liabilities will exceed such estimates. See Note 12 - Self-Insurance Reserves for more information.

We calculate basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260-10, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share equals earnings/(loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per common share equals earnings/(loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented, giving effect to all potentially dilutive stock awards that are outstanding, if their effect is dilutive.

Due to the loss from operations for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, there are no common shares added to calculate dilutive EPS because the effect would be anti-dilutive. Had there been income from operations for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, all of our performance-based restricted stock units, or PSUs, and restricted stock units, or RSUs, further described in Note 13 - Equity, would have been included in the computation of diluted earnings per share and could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future.

Our stock-based compensation awards consist of stock options, PSUs, and RSUs, all of which are based on our common shares. Compensation costs for all awards expected to vest are recognized over the vesting period using the simplified method in accordance with ASC 718 as we believe the simplified method is the best method to calculate our stock compensation expense. In addition, we estimate an expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. The awards granted generally vest annually in three or four-year tranches for our executive officers and employees and vest in monthly tranches for our directors, and are included in costs of goods sold; research and development; selling, marketing, and distribution; and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 13 – Equity for additional information.

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). The provision for income taxes is based upon income reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as required by ASC 740-10. We determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases in assets and liabilities and measure them by applying enacted rates and laws expected to be in place when the deferred items become subject to income tax or deductible for income tax purposes. We recognize the effect on deferred taxes and

liabilities of a change in tax rates in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realization of our deferred income tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of our deferred income tax assets depends upon generating future taxable income during the periods in which our temporary differences become deductible and before our net operating loss carryforwards expire. We periodically evaluate the recoverability of our deferred income tax assets by assessing the need for a valuation allowance. If we determine that it is more likely than not that our deferred income tax assets will not be recovered, we establish a valuation allowance against some or all of our deferred income tax assets. We determine unrecognized income tax benefits in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which first we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and second for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. Accrued income taxes in the consolidated balance sheet includes unrecognized income tax benefits along with related interest and penalties, appropriately classified as current or noncurrent. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest income/(expense) and other income/(expense), respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. All deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet.

We periodically assess whether it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income to realize our deferred income tax assets. The ultimate realization of net deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We establish valuation allowances if it is more likely than not that we will be unable to realize our deferred income tax assets.

In making this determination, we consider available positive and negative evidence and make certain assumptions. We consider, among other things, projected future taxable income, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, the overall business environment, our historical financial results, and tax planning strategies. Significant judgment is required in this analysis.

We determined in a prior period that it was not more likely than not that our net deferred tax assets would be realized and accordingly we recorded a full valuation allowance. This assessment of the realizability of our net deferred tax assets remains unchanged for the current fiscal year. Our assessment involved estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain, and unanticipated events or circumstances could cause actual results to differ from these estimates.

Estimates may change as new events occur, estimates of future taxable income may increase during the expected reversal period of our deferred tax assets, or additional information becomes available. Should we change our estimate of the amount of deferred tax assets that we would be able to realize, a full or partial reversal of the valuation allowance could occur resulting in a decrease to the provision for income taxes in the period such a change in estimate is made.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and trade receivables. We place our cash and cash equivalents in overnight U.S. government securities. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited by the large number of customers comprising our customer base and their geographic and business dispersion. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and generally do not require collateral.

As of April 30, 2026, we had two customers that exceeded 10% or more of our accounts receivable, accounting for $6.1 million, or 20.8%; $3.8 million, or 12.9%, of our fiscal 2026 accounts receivable. As of April 30, 2025, we had three customers exceed 10% or more of our accounts receivable, accounting for $5.8 million, or 14.6%; $5.2 million, or 13.1%; $4.4 million, or 11.1%, of our fiscal 2025 accounts receivable. We are not aware of any issues with respect to relationships with any of our top customers.

In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we included amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling in net sales. We include costs relating to shipping and handling charges, including inbound freight charges and internal transfer costs, in cost of goods sold; however, costs incurred to distribute products to customers is included in distribution expenses.

We periodically assess liabilities and contingencies in connection with legal proceedings and other claims that may arise from time to time. When we believe it is probable that a loss has been or will be incurred, we record an estimate of the loss in the consolidated financial statements. We adjust estimates of losses when additional information becomes available or circumstances change. We disclose a contingent liability when we believe there is at least a reasonable possibility that a material loss may have been incurred. We record legal fees as incurred.

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring companies to (1) disclose consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective rate reconciliation and (2) provide information on income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted ASU 2023-09 effective as of the beginning of the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03), which requires disaggregation disclosures on an annual or interim basis, in the notes to the financial statements, of certain categories of expenses that are included in expense line items on the face of the statement of operations. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and should be applied prospectively, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU 2024-03 on our consolidated financial statements and 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 improves transparency to provide all entities with a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. All entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU 2025-05 is not expected to have a significant impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements when adopted.
