| 1. | Nature of the Business |
SPAR Group, Inc. ("SGRP" or the "Corporation"), and its subsidiaries (and SGRP together with its subsidiaries may be referred to as ("SPAR Group", the "Company", "SPAR", "We", or "Our") is a global merchandising and brand marketing services company, providing a broad range of services to retailers, consumer goods manufacturers and distributors around the world.
Recent Developments
On March 29, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment with ReposiTrak, Inc. (“TRAK”), an affiliate of PC Group, Inc (“PC Group”) (the “Amendment”), to that certain Services Agreement, dated March 13, 2026 (the “Agreement”), entered into and between the Company and TRAK.

Under the terms of the Amendment, TRAK had the option to elect to receive payment for the Services in cash, shares of common stock of the Company, or a combination thereof. Any issuance of common stock pursuant to the Amendment was valued based upon the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable issuance date.
On May 29, 2026, TRAK elected to receive payment of the outstanding balance owed to TRAK under the Amendment in shares of common stock, resulting in the issuance by the Company to the TRAK of
Effective June 1, 2026, the Company and TRAK entered into a further IT & Development Services Agreement for a term beginning on June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2027 (“IT Agreement”).

| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026, the ("2025 Annual Report"). Certain Items in the 2025 Annual Report cross-reference and incorporate by reference indicated parts of the Corporation's Proxy Statement on Schedule DEF 14A for its 2026 Annual Stockholders Meeting the ("2026 Proxy Statement"), which was filed with the SEC on April 30, 2026.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the included disclosures are adequate, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2026, consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries and all significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the amounts disclosed for contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Significant balances subject to such estimates and assumptions include carrying amounts of property and equipment and intangible assets, valuation allowances for receivables, carrying amounts for deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities incurred from operations and customer incentives. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting
Reportable segments are components of the Company for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM”) in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The Company's CODM is the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO").
In November 2025, the Company appointed a new CEO, William Linnane. During the fourth quarter of 2025, revised internal reporting began to be provided to and reviewed by the CODM. The Company provides similar merchandising, marketing, and business services in the United States of America ("U.S.") and Canada, and the CODM now reviews financial information by two geographic components: (i) U.S. and (ii) Canada, for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. As a result, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company determined that it has reportable segments: U.S. and Canada. For the first three quarters of 2025, the previous CODM managed all business activities on a consolidated basis, and as a result, the Company had one reportable segment. Segment information for the six months ended June 30, 2025 has been recast to reflect this reportable segment structure.
Deferred Taxes
The Company records deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. Management evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets at each reporting date, considering all available positive and negative evidence, both objective and subjective. In performing this assessment, the Company considers, among other factors:
| ● | Historical operating results and cumulative pre-tax income or loss; |
| ● | The expected timing, amount, and character of future taxable income; |
| ● | The reversal pattern of existing taxable and deductible temporary differences; |
| ● | Tax-planning strategies that may be implemented, if any; and |
| ● | The duration of and limitations on carryforward periods for net operating losses and other attributes. |
Based on the evaluation of positive and negative evidence, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will not be realized as of December 31, 2025. Accordingly, a valuation allowance of $
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires companies to report specific categories of rate reconciliation, certain details of income taxes paid and certain information by tax jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company implemented this ASU prospectively for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities (PBEs). The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for all PBEs for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The U.S. GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
| ● Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities; |
| ● 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 significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and |
| ● Level 3 | Prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
If the inputs used to measure the fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the fair value is determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Whenever possible, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value. In the absence of quoted market prices, the Company uses independent sources and data to determine fair value.
The fair value of the Company's lines of credit approximates the carrying value reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, due to their short-term nature.
The fair value of the long-term portion of the Resource Plus Seller Notes is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology. Under this approach, the expected future cash flows of the notes are discounted to their present value using a discount rate derived from observable market data, such as current interest rates or yield curves for similar instruments. This valuation technique utilizes inputs classified as Level 2 under the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. Accordingly, the carrying amount of the long-term portion of the Resource Plus Seller Notes approximates its fair value, as it represents the present value of the notes’ future cash flows.
The fair value of the long-term portion of the PC Group Unsecured Loan is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model due to the complex nature of the conversion and price protection provisions contained in the financing agreement. This model utilizes multiple simulated paths of the Company's stock price over the expected term of the instrument and incorporates assumptions for stock price volatility, risk-free interest rates, expected term, and other contractual features. The model calculates the probability-weighted present value of expected future cash flows under a large number of simulated scenarios. The resulting fair value estimate reflects the average outcome of these simulations and represents management's estimate of the amount that would be received or paid in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, this liability, which was determined to be effective as of April 2026, based on the issuance of common shares, is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the fair value of this liability will be recognized in earnings in the period in which they occur.
Restructuring Costs and Severance
Restructuring costs and severance include severance costs paid in connection with the reorganization of the Company's executive team and expenses related to the move of the Company's headquarters to Charlotte, NC. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized expense of $

North Mill Capital Credit Facility
The Company, through SPAR Marketing Force, Inc. ("SMF") and SPAR Canada Company ULC ("SCC", and collectively with SMF, the “NM Borrowers”), has a secured revolving credit facility in the United States (the "US Revolving Credit Facility") and Canada (the "Canada Revolving Credit Facility", and collectively with the US Revolving Credit Facility, the "NM Credit Facility") with North Mill Capital, LLC, d/b/a SLR Business Credit ("NM").
In order to obtain, document and govern the NM Credit Facility, SMF, SCC, SGRP and certain of SGRP's direct and indirect subsidiaries in the United States and Canada (including SMF and SCC as borrowers and SGRP as a guarantor, collectively, the "NM Loan Parties") entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with NM dated as of April 10, 2019, which, as amended from time to time (as amended, the "NM Loan Agreement"), governs the NM Credit Facility. Pursuant to the NM Loan Agreement, the NM Borrowers agreed to reimburse NM for legal and documentation fees incurred in connection with the NM Loan Agreement and such amendments.
On March 27, 2024, the NM Loan Parties and NM executed and delivered a Seventh Modification Agreement, effective immediately (the "Seventh Modification Agreement"), pursuant to which the NM Loan Parties and NM agreed to extend the NM Credit Facility from October 10, 2024 to October 10, 2025.
On October 9, 2025, the NM Loan Parties and NM executed and delivered an Eighth Modification Agreement, effective immediately (the "Eight Modification Agreement"), pursuant to which the NM Loan Parties and NM agreed to and extend the NM Credit Facility from October 9, 2025 to October 10, 2027, to increase the amount of the US Revolving Credit Facility to $
To evidence the increase in the US Revolving Credit Facility, SMF executed and delivered to NM a $
The Restated US Note and Restated Canadian Note (together, the "NM Notes") and the NM Loan Agreement together require the NM Borrowers to pay interest on the loans thereunder equal to: (i) the Prime Rate designated from time to time by Wells Fargo Bank; plus (ii) one and nine-tenths percentage points (
The NM Credit Facility contains certain financial and other restrictive covenants and also limits certain expenditures by the NM Loan Parties, including maintaining a positive trailing EBITDA for each of the NM Borrowers and imposes limits on all of the NM Loan Parties on non-ordinary course payments and transactions, incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness, capital expenditures and certain other investments. The NM Loan Parties were in compliance with such covenants as of June 30, 2026. The obligations of the NM Borrowers are secured by the receivables and other assets of the NM Borrowers and substantially all of the assets of the other NM Loan Parties.

The Loan provides for a staggered funding schedule as follows:
| ● | Initial Drawdown: $ |
| ● | Additional Drawdown: $ |
In connection with the Loan, the Company issued
The Equity Consideration also includes an equity price protection provision pursuant to which, if the Company issues or sells shares of its common stock, securities convertible into common stock, at a price per share below the deemed value of $0.80 per share during the 36-month term, the Company will pay PC Group, an amount in cash equal to the difference in value within 30 days of such issuance. Any cash settlement amounts paid during the term of the Loan will adjust the final loan payment due at maturity, such that the aggregate amount owed under the arrangement remains at $4.0 million.
The Company evaluated the equity price protection provision and determined that it meets the criteria to be accounted for as an embedded derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of the embedded derivative was bifurcated from the debt instrument and is recognized as a derivative liability on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability is remeasured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Refer to Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements for additional information regarding the valuation of the embedded derivative liability.
On March 29, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment with TRAK, an affiliate of PC Group (the “Amendment”), to that certain Services Agreement dated March 13, 2026 (the “Agreement”) entered into and between the Company and TRAK.

Phantom Stock Awards
The Corporation from time to time has awarded to its executives deferred compensation in the form of Phantom Stock Units ("PSUs"), which correspond to an equal number of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock ("SGRP Shares"). The number of PSUs received equals the dollar value of the incentive award divided by the per share market price of SGRP shares on the date of award. Each PSU represents the right of the grantee to receive cash payments based on the fair market value of SGRP Shares at the time of vesting, but not to receive SGRP Shares themselves. The number of the Grantee's PSUs will be automatically adjusted to reflect the specified events respecting the SGRP Shares as provided in the applicable Phantom Stock Agreement. The PSUs do not possess the rights of common stockholders of the Corporation, including any voting or dividend rights, and cannot be exercised or traded for SGRP Shares. Due to the cash settlement feature, the PSUs are classified as liabilities in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The U.S. GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
| ● Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities; |
| ● 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 significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and |
| ● Level 3 | Prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s financial liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, by level within the fair value hierarchy as follows:

At the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Report, on June 5, 2026, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed against certain of the Company's current and former directors and officers, naming the Company as a nominal defendant, in the Delaware Court of Chancery on behalf of the Company (“Complaint”). The Complaint was filed by Robert G. Brown, who purports to be a shareholder of the Company (“Brown”). Brown subsequently filed an amended Complaint on July 24, 2026. The amended Complaint asserts claims against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company, and generally alleges breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and requests for declaratory and equitable relief relating to allegedly void or voidable Board actions. Neither the Company nor the individual defendants have filed a responsive pleading to the amended Complaint.
Separately, on July 30, 2026, Brown filed an arbitration action against the Company, seeking to enforce a Settlement Agreement and Release dated as of May 1, 2026 (“Settlement Agreement”), which resolved a prior arbitration between Brown and the Company. As part of that settlement, the Company agreed to cooperate with Brown’s effort to convert certain shares held by Spar Business Services, Inc. to book-entry form and to facilitate the registration of such shares. The Company has refused to approve such transfer, asserting that Brown breached and repudiated both the Change-in-Control Agreement, dated January 28, 2022, and the Settlement Agreement by filing his stockholder derivative suit, which releases the Company from any further obligations under the Settlement Agreement. Brown seeks an order compelling the Company to specifically perform its obligations under the Settlement Agreement and awarding Brown damages for the Company’s alleged failure to do so.
The Company believes there is no merit to the allegations asserted by Brown, and intends to defend the actions vigorously, and to assert certain counterclaims in its response to the Complaint, and in arbitration. Because these matters are in their preliminary stages, the Company is unable to predict their outcome or estimate a range of any reasonably possible loss, if any, and no assurance can be given that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, or results of operations.

As part of that settlement, the Company agreed to cooperate with Brown’s effort to convert certain shares held by Spar Business Services, Inc. to book-entry form and to facilitate the registration of such shares.

Brown seeks an order compelling the Company to specifically perform its obligations under the Settlement Agreement and awarding Brown damages for the Company’s alleged failure to do so.
On August 7, 2026, the Company filed its answer to Brown’s demand for Arbitration, asserted affirmative defenses and requested judgment in the Company’s favor on all counts related to Brown’s demand for Arbitration. The Company also asserted certain counterclaims, including for damages related to, among other counterclaims, (i) for breach of the CIC Agreement and the Settlement Agreement; (ii) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and (iii) disgorgement of short-swing profits under Section 16(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). The Company also seeks declarations that the Brown has repudiated the Settlement Agreement and the CIC Agreement. In its answer, the Company requests damages for, among other damages, (u) Brown’s breaches of the CIC Agreement and the Settlement Agreement; (v) restitution of all amounts paid to Brown under the Settlement Agreement; (w) all costs and expenses in defending both Complaint and the Arbitration; (x) all consequential and incidental damages proximately caused by Brown’s breaches of the CIC Agreement and Settlement Agreement; (y) specific performance of Brown’s obligations under the CIC Agreement and the Settlement Agreement; and (z) disgorgement of all short-swing profits realized by Brown as required under the Exchange Act.
The Company believes there is no merit to the allegations asserted by Brown, and intends to vigorously defend the actions, and vigorously pursue its counterclaims in its response to the Complaint, and in Arbitration. Because these matters are in their preliminary stages, the Company is unable to predict their outcome or estimate a range of any reasonably possible loss or recovery, if any, and no assurance can be given that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, or results of operations.
The Company has evaluated this matter in accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events, and has concluded that it is a non-recognized subsequent event, as the underlying conduct predates the balance sheet date but the triggering event (the filing) occurred afterward, and no adjustment to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026 is required as a result. The Company believes there is no merit to the allegations asserted by Brown, and intends to vigorously defend the actions, and to vigorously pursue its counterclaims in its response to the Complaint, and in Arbitration

Recent Developments
On March 29, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment with ReposiTrak, Inc., an affiliate of PC Group (the “TRAK”) (the “Amendment”), to that certain Services Agreement dated March 13, 2026 (the “Agreement”) entered into and between the Company and TRAK. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to provide certain services to the Company related to (i) data analytics and internal reporting of the Company’s merchandising services that support consumer brands and retailers; (ii) out-of-stocks verification and remediation; (iii) scanned based trading merchandising; (iv) merchandising route optimization; (v) IT and technical optimization; and (v) consulting and training (together, the “Services”) for a one-year term beginning March 13, 2026 with an aggregate contract value of $2,325,000. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the Company was to pay TRAK in cash for the Services provided thereunder.
Under the terms of the Amendment, TRAK had the option to elect to receive payment for the Services in cash, shares of common stock of the Company, or a combination thereof. Any issuance of common stock pursuant to the Amendment was valued based upon the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable issuance date.
On May 29, 2026, TRAK elected to receive payment of the outstanding balance owed to TRAK under the Amendment in shares of common stock, resulting in the issuance by the Company to the TRAK of 3,190,569 shares of common stock at a deemed value of $0.728710119 per share, in consideration of the payment of $2,325,000 otherwise payable to TRAK under the terms of the Agreement.
Effective June 1, 2026, the Company and TRAK entered into a further IT & Development Services Agreement for a term beginning on June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2027 (“IT Agreement”). Under the terms of the IT Agreement, TRAK will (i) develop, configure, and implement the TRAK application framework to support the functional capabilities of the SPAR View; (ii) evaluate the SPAR View application and define the technical approach for migrating its functionality to the upgraded platform; (iii) access the capabilities, skills, and organizational fit of current IT and development personnel; (iv) review SPAR’s existing IT organization, systems and processes; and (v) provide recommendations regarding SPAR’s technology architecture, staffing and suggest operational improvements (together, “IT Services”). The consideration to be paid for the IT Services is $151,500 per month.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of our operating performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). "EBITDA" is defined as net income before (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, and (iii) income tax expense. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as net income (loss) before (i) depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, (ii) interest expense (iii) income tax expense, (iv) restructuring expenses, (v) impairment, (vi) nonrecurring legal settlement costs and associated legal expenses unrelated to the Company's core operations, (vii) special items as determined by management, and (viii) review of strategic alternatives, which includes primarily legal, consulting, and investment bank fees. This metric is a supplemental measure of our operating performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA in future periods, and any such modification may be material. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries.
Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends in our core operating performance compared to other measures, which can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. We also use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement U.S. GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies and to make budgeting decisions.
Adjusted EBITDA has its limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include:
| ● |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditure or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| ● |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in our cash requirements for our working capital needs; |
| ● |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense and the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; |
| ● |

Net Revenues
Net revenues for three months ended June 30, 2026 were $36.9 million, compared to $38.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 4.5%. Net revenues decreased during the quarter primarily due to lower volume in the remodel business.
U.S. net revenues totaled $32.5 million and $35.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of $2.7 million or 7.7% is driven by a soft quarter in our remodel business.
Canada net revenues totaled $4.4 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase of $1.0 million or 29.4% is driven by the merchandising business.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $28.5 million, compared to $29.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

U.S. cost of revenues totaled $25.1 million and $27.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of $2.0 million is in line with the reduction of revenue and driven by the mix of services in the U.S. partially offset by a reduction in the field management expenses.
Canada cost of revenues totaled $3.4 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase of $0.9 million is driven by the increased revenue for the quarter along with a mix in services.

The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to cost savings measures that have been implemented.
U.S. SG&A expense totaled $6.2 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of $0.9 million was primarily driven by lower compensation costs and lower consulting expenses.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in those financial statements and related notes thereto. However, we believe we have used reasonable estimates and assumptions in preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates, actual results reported in future periods could differ from those estimates.
The significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are described in the Critical Accounting Estimates section of the MD&A in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2026.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Funding Requirements
Cash from operations could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to risks detailed in the section titled "Risk Factors" included elsewhere in our 2025 Annual Report. The Company believes that based upon the continuation of the Company's existing credit facilities (for which the Company closed on a two year extension from its lender in October 2025), projected results of operations, vendor payment requirements and other financing available to the Company (including amounts due to affiliates), sources of cash availability should be manageable and sufficient to support ongoing working capital and capital expenditure requirements over the next 12 months. However, delays in collection of receivables due from any of the Company's major clients, a significant reduction in business from such clients, or a negative economic downturn, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, cash resources, and ongoing ability to fund operations.
The Company is a party to various domestic and international credit facilities. These various domestic and international credit facilities require compliance with their respective financial covenants. See Note 3 to the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Cash Flows for the Six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
Net cash used in operating activities was $8.7 million compared to $11.9 million used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The change was primarily due to the decrease in accounts receivable which correlates to the decrease in revenue period over period and improved collection of outstanding customer balances, offset by the decrease in accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1.0 million compared to $1.0 million used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $9.4 million compared to $8.5 million provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. This was principally due to proceeds received from PC Group under the terms of an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $3.0M, which was offset by changes in borrowings under the Company’s line of credit.
Reflecting the impact of foreign exchange rate changes on the activity above resulted in a decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 of approximately $15 thousand and increase of $20 thousand, respectively.
| Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.
| Controls and Procedures |
Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as our principal financial and accounting officer, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and, based on their evaluation, have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, described below.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2026, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
| Legal Proceedings |
The Company is party to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcomes of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the resolution of any currently pending ordinary course matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, whether individually or in the aggregate.
Subsequent to the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report, on June 5, 2026, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed against certain of the Company's current and former directors and officers, naming the Company as a nominal defendant, in the Delaware Court of Chancery on behalf of the Company (“Complaint”). The Complaint was filed by Robert G. Brown, who purports to be a shareholder of the Company (“Brown”). Brown subsequently filed an amended Complaint on July 24, 2026. The amended Complaint asserts claims against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company, and generally alleges breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and requests for declaratory and equitable relief relating to allegedly void or voidable Board actions. Neither the Company nor the individual defendants have filed a responsive pleading to the amended Complaint.
Separately, on July 30, 2026, Brown filed an arbitration action against the Company (the “Arbitration”), seeking to enforce a Settlement Agreement and Release dated as of May 1, 2026 (“Settlement Agreement”), which resolved a prior arbitration between Brown and the Company. As part of that settlement, the Company agreed to cooperate with Brown’s effort to convert certain shares held by Spar Business Services, Inc. to book-entry form and to facilitate the registration of such shares. The Company has refused to approve such transfer, asserting that Brown breached and repudiated both the Change-in-Control Agreement, dated January 28, 2022 (“CIC Agreement”), and the Settlement Agreement by filing the Complaint, which releases the Company from any further obligations under the Settlement Agreement. Brown seeks an order compelling the Company to specifically perform its obligations under the Settlement Agreement and awarding Brown damages for the Company’s alleged failure to do so.
On August 7, 2026, the Company filed its answer to Brown’s demand for Arbitration, asserted affirmative defenses and requested judgment in the Company’s favor on all counts related to Brown’s demand for Arbitration. The Company also asserted certain counterclaims, including for damages related to, among other counterclaims, (i) for breach of the CIC Agreement and the Settlement Agreement; (ii) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and (iii) disgorgement of short-swing profits under Section 16(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). The Company also seeks declarations that the Brown has repudiated the Settlement Agreement and the CIC Agreement. In its answer, the Company requests damages for, among other damages, (u) Brown’s breaches of the CIC Agreement and the Settlement Agreement; (v) restitution of all amounts paid to Brown under the Settlement Agreement; (w) all costs and expenses in defending both Complaint and the Arbitration; (x) all consequential and incidental damages proximately caused by Brown’s breaches of the CIC Agreement and Settlement Agreement; (y) specific performance of Brown’s obligations under the CIC Agreement and the Settlement Agreement; and (z) disgorgement of all short-swing profits realized by Brown as required under the Exchange Act.
The Company believes there is no merit to the allegations asserted by Brown, and intends to vigorously defend the actions, and vigorously pursue its counterclaims in its response to the Complaint, and in Arbitration. Because these matters are in their preliminary stages, the Company is unable to predict their outcome or estimate a range of any reasonably possible loss or recovery, if any, and no assurance can be given that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, or results of operations.
| Risk Factors |
Existing Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, except as set forth below. The risk factor described below should be read in conjunction with the risk factors and other information disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.
We are subject to a shareholder derivative lawsuit that could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources.
Following the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed against certain of our current and former directors and officers, naming the Company as a nominal defendant, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and requests for declaratory and equitable relief relating to allegedly void or voidable Board actions. For additional information regarding this matter, see Part II, Item 1, "Legal Proceedings" and Note 13 - Subsequent Events, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. We intend to defend the action vigorously, but litigation of this nature is inherently uncertain, and we cannot predict its outcome at this stage. Regardless of the outcome, the litigation could result in substantial costs to us, including costs associated with indemnification obligations to current and former directors and officers, and could divert the attention and resources of our management and board of directors from the operation of our business. Derivative litigation of this kind may also lead to reputational harm, increased scrutiny of our corporate governance practices and public disclosures, and volatility in the trading price of our common stock. In addition, our directors' and officers' liability insurance may not be sufficient to cover the costs of defending or resolving this matter, and any amounts we are required to pay in excess of available insurance coverage, or any adverse outcome not covered by insurance, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Even if we are ultimately successful in defending against this lawsuit, the process of doing so may be costly and time-consuming and may adversely affect our reputation and relationships with customers, shareholders, employees, and other stakeholders.
| Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
On March 13, 2026, the Company entered into a $4.0 million unsecured loan agreement (the "Loan") with PC Group. In connection with the Loan, the Company granted PC Group 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on April 10, 2026 (the "Equity Consideration") at a deemed value of $0.80 per share, for an aggregate value of $0.8 million. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the aggregate deemed value of the Equity Consideration will be applied as a reduction to the final principal payment due upon maturity of the Loan at the end of the 36-month term.
On March 29, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to that certain Services Agreement dated March 13, 2026 (the "Agreement"), by and between the Company and ReposiTrak, Inc., an affiliate of PC Group ("TRAK"), pursuant to which TRAK agreed to provide the Company with certain data analytics, merchandising, IT, and consulting services (the "Services") for a one-year term beginning March 13, 2026, for an aggregate contract value of $2,325,000. Pursuant to the Amendment, TRAK had the option to elect to receive payment for the Services in cash, shares of the Company's common stock, or a combination thereof, with any shares issued valued based on the volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable issuance date.
On May 29, 2026, TRAK elected to receive payment of the outstanding balance owed to it under the Amendment in shares of common stock. As a result, the Company issued 3,190,569 shares of its common stock to TRAK at a deemed price of $0.728710119 per share, in full satisfaction of the $2,325,000 owed to TRAK under the Agreement.
The issuance of the foregoing shares was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. TRAK represented that it was acquiring the shares for investment purposes only and not with a view toward distribution, and appropriate legends were affixed to the certificates representing the shares.
