PART I

Item 1. Business.

General

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 13, 1963. On December 21, 2018, the Company changed its name from EnviroStar, Inc. to EVI Industries, Inc.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is a value-added distributor, and provides advisory and technical services. Through its vast sales organization, the Company provides its customers with planning, designing, and consulting services related to their commercial laundry operations. The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment, specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers with installation, maintenance, and repair services.

The Company’s customers include government, institutional, industrial, commercial and retail customers. Product purchases made by customers range from parts and accessories, to single or multiple units of equipment, to large complex systems. The Company also provides its customers with the services described above.

Beginning in 2015, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy which includes (i) the consideration and pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions which management believes may complement the Company’s existing business or otherwise offer growth opportunities for, or benefit, the Company and (ii) the implementation of a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain additional initiatives, which may include investments in additional sales and service personnel, new product lines, enhanced service operations and capabilities, new and improved facilities, and advanced technologies. See “Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy” below for additional information regarding the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy.

The Company seeks to maintain a culture designed to reward performance through a variety of performance-based pay, commission programs, cash incentives, and stock-based equity programs. Stock-based plans include a voluntary employee stock purchase plan and an equity compensation plan under which restricted stock and other equity awards may be granted. The Company’s equity compensation plan is designed to promote long-term performance, as well as to create long-term employee retention and continuity of leadership, and align the interests of management and employees with the long-term success of the Company. The Company believes that its restricted stock program promotes this culture and long-term performance because restricted stock grants generally provide for long-term vesting, including in certain cases entirely at the end of the recipient’s career (age 62 or later).

The Company reports its results of operations through a single operating and reportable segment.

Available Information

The Company files Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, files or furnishes Current Reports on Form 8-K, files or furnishes amendments to those reports, and files proxy and information statements with the SEC. These reports and statements, as well as beneficial ownership reports filed by the Company’s officers and directors and beneficial owners of 10% or more of the Company’s common stock, may be accessed free of charge on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and, as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC, on the Company’s website at http://www.evi-ind.com. The information contained on or connected to the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into, or otherwise a part of, this Report. Further, references to the website URL of the Company in this Report are intended to be inactive textual references only.

Products and Services

The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment, specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers with installation, maintenance, and repair services.

The commercial and industrial laundry equipment distributed by the Company includes washroom, finishing, material handling, and mechanical equipment such as washers and dryers, tunnel systems and vended machines, many of which are designed to reduce utility and water consumption. Finishing equipment distributed by the Company includes sheet feeders, flatwork ironers, automatic sheet folders, and stackers. Material handling equipment distributed by the Company includes conveyor and rail systems. Mechanical equipment distributed by the Company includes boilers, hot water/steam systems, power generation products, water purification, reuse and recycling systems and air compressors. Boiler products distributed by the Company include high efficiency, low emission steam boilers, steam systems and hot water systems that are used in the laundry and dry cleaning industry for temperature control, heating, pressing and de-wrinkling, and in the healthcare industry, food and beverage industry, and other industrial markets, for sterilization, product sealing and other purposes. The Company also sells replacement parts and accessories for the products it distributes.

The Company seeks to position and price its products to appeal to customers in each of the high-end, mid-range and value-priced markets, as the products are generally offered in a wide range of price points to address the needs of a diverse customer base. The Company believes that its portfolio of products affords the Company’s customers a “one-stop shop” for commercial, industrial and vended laundry and dry cleaning machines, boilers and accessories and that, as a result, the Company is able to attract and support potential customers who can choose from the Company’s broad product line.

In addition to its distribution of products, the Company also provides installation, maintenance and repair services to its customers. The Company believes its services are competitively priced.

Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy

As described above, in addition to its pursuit of organic growth initiatives, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy in 2015. The “buy” component of the strategy includes the consideration and pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions which management believes would complement the Company’s existing business or otherwise offer growth opportunities for, or benefit, the Company. The Company is disciplined and conservative in its consideration of acquisitions and generally seeks to identify opportunities that fit certain financial and strategic criteria. The “build” component of the strategy involves implementing a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain initiatives, which may include investments in additional sales and service personnel, new product lines, enhanced service operations and capabilities, new and improved facilities, and advanced technologies. The Company generally seeks to structure acquisitions to include both cash and stock consideration. The Company believes the issuance of stock consideration aligns the interests of the sellers of the acquired businesses, who the Company generally seeks to maintain to continue to operate the acquired businesses, with the interests of the Company’s other stockholders. The sellers as

well as other key individuals at the acquired businesses may also be provided with the opportunity to own shares of the Company’s common stock through equity-based plans of the Company.

Acquisitions are generally effected by the Company through a separate wholly-owned subsidiary formed for the purpose of effecting the transaction, whether by an asset purchase or merger, and operating the acquired business following the transaction. The Company, indirectly through its applicable wholly-owned subsidiary, also assumes certain of the liabilities of the acquired business. The financial position, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of the acquired businesses following the respective closing dates of the acquisitions are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included as Part II, Item 7 of this Report and Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for additional information about the acquisitions consummated by the Company during fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024, as well as the acquisition consummated by the Company subsequent to the fiscal 2024 year-end.

Customers and Markets

The Company’s customer base consists of approximately 55,000 customers located primarily in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues for fiscal 2024 or fiscal 2023.

The Company’s commercial and industrial laundry equipment and boilers are sold or leased to a wide range of customers, including, but not limited to, vended laundry facilities, industrial laundry facilities, government institutions, correctional facilities, hospitals, hospital combines, nursing homes, veterinary clinics, professional sports franchises, educational institutions, hotels, motels, food and beverage establishments, cruise lines, and specialized users.

Historically, the Company has not noted any significant seasonality.

Sales, Marketing and Customer Support

The Company employs sales personnel to market its products in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. The Company has exclusive and nonexclusive distribution rights to market its products. Orders for equipment and replacement parts and accessories are generally obtained by telephone, and e-mail inquiries originated by the customer or by the Company, from existing customer relationships and from newly formed customer relationships. The Company supports its sales and leasing activities through its websites and by advertising in trade publications, participating in trade shows and engaging in regional promotions and incentive programs.

The Company seeks to establish customer satisfaction by offering:

The Company trains its employees to provide service and customer support. The Company uses in-person classroom training, instructional videos and vendor sponsored seminars to educate employees about product information. In addition, the Company’s technical staff has prepared training manuals, written in English and Spanish, relating to specific training procedures. The Company’s technical personnel are retrained as the Company believes to be necessary, including in connection with the development of new technology.

Foreign Sales

Substantially all of the Company’s revenues from foreign activities relate to the sale of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and boilers to customers in Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

All of the Company’s foreign sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located.

Sources of Supply

The Company purchases commercial and industrial laundry products, dry cleaning machines, boilers and other products for distribution from a number of manufacturers and suppliers. The major manufacturers of the products sold by the Company are American Dryer Corporation, Chicago Dryer Company, Cleaver Brooks Inc., Continental Girbau, Inc., Dexter Laundry, Inc., FMB Group, Fulton Thermal Corp., Kannegiesser ETECH, Maytag Corporation, Pellerin Milnor Corporation, Unipress Corporation and Whirlpool Corporation. Purchases from four manufacturers accounted for a total of approximately 73% and 70% of the Company’s product purchases for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. No other manufacturers accounted for more than 10% of product purchases during fiscal 2024 or fiscal 2023. The Company believes that it has good working relationships with its current manufacturers and suppliers. The Company has contracts with several of the manufacturers and suppliers of the products which the Company sells and has established, long-standing relationships with most of its manufacturers and suppliers. The Company believes that such relationships provide the Company with certain competitive advantages, including exclusivity for certain products in certain areas and, in certain cases, favorable pricing and other terms. While the Company has generally not experienced difficulty in purchasing products it distributes, supply chain constraints in recent years have resulted in extended inventory lead times and resulting delays in fulfilling certain orders, as well as increases in product costs.

In connection with certain business acquisitions, the business relationship between the acquired business and its principal supplier ceased. As a result, the businesses distributed other brands from one or more of the Company’s other suppliers. The Company does not believe that any such brand switches have had a material adverse impact on the Company as a whole. However, there is no assurance that the Company or any of its acquired businesses will maintain its relationships with any of its suppliers, and the

loss of certain of these relationships, including the loss of a relationship with a principal supplier and any inability to successfully mitigate the effect of the loss of such supplier, could adversely affect the Company’s business and results. See also “The Company’s business and results may be adversely affected if the Company does not maintain its relationships with its significant suppliers or customers” under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” below.

Due to special options and features on most of the larger and more expensive equipment ordered by customers, in most instances, the Company purchases the equipment distributed by it after its receipt of orders from its customers. However, from time to time, including in fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, the Company purchased inventory in advance to take advantage of favorable pricing at the time or for other purposes, including to support the Company’s sales growth initiatives in new distribution territories and in support of growth initiatives related to the establishment of new manufacturer and supplier distribution relationships, and more recently to acquire inventory in light of supply chain constraints. The Company also maintains an inventory of more standardized and smaller-sized equipment that often requires more rapid delivery to meet customer needs.

Competition

The commercial and industrial laundry and boiler distribution business is highly competitive and fragmented, with over 500 full-line or partial-line equipment distributors in the United States. The Company’s management believes that no one competitor has a major share of the market, substantially all competitors are independently owned, and, with the exception of several regional distributors, distributors operate primarily in local markets. In the United States, the Company’s primary competition is from a number of independently owned distributors and certain foreign manufacturers which own distribution businesses operating in North America. In foreign markets, the Company also competes with several independently owned distributors and manufacturer-owned distribution businesses. Competition is based primarily on a distributor’s ability to effectively plan and design optimal commercial and industrial laundry facilities, competitive pricing, representation of reliable and high-quality products, in-house installation, maintenance, and repair services, available and on-time delivery of equipment, parts, and accessories, and the ability to provide continuous support services to the customer. The Company seeks to compete in these areas by employing experienced and successful professionals, by offering a comprehensive product line, by employing a robust network of qualified installation and service technicians, by maintaining optimized inventories of equipment, parts, and accessories at well-located facilities and on service vehicles, by investing in advanced technologies designed to improve the customer experience, and by expansion of its suite of value-added services.

Research and Development

The Company’s research and development efforts and expenses are generally immaterial as most of the Company’s products are distributed for manufacturers that perform their own research and development.

Service Marks and Tradenames

The Company is the owner of certain service marks in the United States. The Company intends to use and protect its service marks, tradenames and other intellectual property, as necessary.

Compliance with Environmental and Other Government Laws and Regulations

Over the past several decades, federal, state, local and foreign governments have enacted environmental protection laws in response to public concerns about the environment. A number of industries, including the commercial and industrial dry cleaning and laundry equipment industries, are subject to these evolving laws and implementing regulations. As a supplier to the industry, the Company serves customers who are primarily responsible for compliance with environmental regulations. Among the United States federal laws that the Company believes are applicable to the industry are the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, which provides for the investigation and remediation of hazardous waste sites, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended, which regulates the generation and transportation of hazardous waste as well as its treatment, storage and disposal, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, which regulates exposure to toxic substances and other health and safety hazards in the workplace. In addition, most states and a number of local jurisdictions have environmental protections which are at least as stringent as the federal laws. The Company is also subject to rules and regulations with respect to its contracts and dealings with government facilities.

While there is no assurance that this will be the case, including due to the fact that regulatory requirements or the interpretation or enforcement thereof are subject to change, the Company does not believe that compliance with federal, state, local and foreign environmental and other laws and regulations which have been adopted have had, or will have, a material effect on its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

Human Capital Resources

As of August 1, 2024, the Company had 750 full and part-time employees. All of the Company’s employees are based in the United States. None of the Company’s employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company believes that its relations with its employees are satisfactory.

The Company believes that, in order to compete and succeed in the highly competitive and fragmented commercial and industrial laundry industry, it is crucial to continue to attract and retain experienced employees. The Company strives to create a workplace that is diverse, innovative, and safe for its employees. The Company seeks to attract highly qualified and diverse talent and to provide its employees with growth opportunities, competitive compensation and benefits, and a variety of training and development programs.

As described above, the Company seeks to maintain a culture designed to reward performance through a variety of performance-based pay, commission programs, cash incentives, and stock-based equity programs. Stock-based plans include a voluntary employee stock purchase plan and an equity compensation plan under which restricted stock and other equity awards may be granted. The Company’s equity compensation plan is designed to promote long-term performance, as well as to create long-term employee retention and continuity of leadership, and align the interests of management and employees with the long-term success of the Company. The Company believes that its restricted stock program promotes this culture and long-term performance because restricted stock grants generally provide for long-term vesting, including in certain cases entirely at the end of the recipient’s career (age 62 or later).

In addition, as previously described, the Company uses in-person classroom training, instructional videos and vendor sponsored seminars to educate and train its sales personnel about product information. In addition, the Company’s technical staff has prepared training manuals, written in English and Spanish, relating to specific training procedures. The Company’s technical personnel are retrained as the Company believes to be necessary, including in connection with the development of new technology.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The Company is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described below, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and the value of the Company’s common stock. The risks described below are not the only risks faced by the Company. Additional risks not presently known to the Company or other factors that the Company does not presently perceive to present significant risks to the Company may also impair the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, or the value of the Company’s common stock. The risks discussed below also include forward looking statements, and actual results and events may differ substantially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” preceding Part I, Item 1 of this Report.

Risks Related to the Company’s Business and Operations

Acquisitions and the Company’s pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions subject the Company to a number of risks.

Acquisitions are an important element of the Company’s growth strategy. Acquisitions and the Company’s efforts with respect thereto involve a number of risks, including, but not limited to:

As a result of these or other problems and risks, acquired businesses may not produce the revenues, earnings, cash flows or business synergies anticipated, and the acquired businesses may not perform as expected. Accordingly, the Company may, among other things, incur higher costs and realize lower revenues and earnings than anticipated. The Company may not be able to successfully address these problems, integrate any acquired businesses or generate sufficient revenue to offset the associated costs or other negative effects on its business.

In addition, acquisitions may result in dilutive issuances of the Company’s equity securities and the incurrence of debt. See “Risks Related to the Company’s Indebtedness - The Company’s indebtedness may impact its financial condition and results of operations, and the terms of the Company’s indebtedness may place restrictions on the Company” below. Acquisitions may also result in contingent liabilities, or amortization expenses, or impairment of goodwill and/or purchased long-lived assets, and restructuring charges, any of which could adversely impact the Company’s financial condition or results. Further, there are risks related to the accounting for acquisitions, including that preliminary valuations are subject to change and any such change may impact the Company’s results.

Growth of the Company’s business through acquisitions or otherwise may place significant demands on management, as well as on the Company’s accounting, financial, information and other systems and on the Company’s business.  Further, management may not be able to manage the Company’s growth effectively or successfully, and the Company’s financial, accounting, information and other systems may not be able to successfully accommodate the Company’s growth. In addition, the Company’s accounting expenses and other professional expenses associated with being a public company have increased as a result of the Company’s growth, and such expenses may continue to increase in the future.

Further, the Company may not be successful in consummating acquisitions or other strategic transactions. Expenses related to the Company’s pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions may be significant and will be incurred by the Company regardless of whether the underlying acquisition or other strategic transaction is ultimately consummated.

Conditions beyond the Company’s control can interrupt the Company’s supplies, increase its product costs and impair its ability to deliver products and services to its customers.

The Company obtains its products from third-party suppliers. Although purchasing volume can provide benefits when dealing with suppliers, suppliers may not be able to provide the products and supplies that the Company needs in the quantities and at the prices requested, including due to conditions outside of the supplier’s control. The Company is also subject to delays caused by interruptions in production and increases in product costs based on conditions outside of the Company’s control. These conditions include shortages of qualified labor for suppliers, work slowdowns, work interruptions, strikes or other job actions by employees of suppliers, weather conditions, transportation interruptions, unavailability of fuel or increases in fuel costs, product recalls, competitive demands, civil insurrection or social unrest, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics or other disease outbreaks or catastrophic events. Many of these conditions are outside of the Company’s control and could also impair the Company’s ability to provide its products and services to its customers or increase the cost of doing so. In recent years, customer demand has outpaced available supply, which has resulted in, and may continue to result in, delays in delivering products or services to the Company’s customers, as well as increases in product costs. The inability to obtain adequate supplies of products and/or to timely provide products and services and fulfill the Company’s other obligations to its customers, whether as a result of any of the foregoing factors or otherwise, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition, including, without limitation, if the Company’s customers turn to other distributors.

In addition to the foregoing, delays in construction of customers’ facilities, whether due to supply or labor shortages or any other factors, have resulted, and may continue to result in, delays in the Company’s fulfillment of orders to such facilities, which may adversely impact the Company’s operating results and financial condition.

Labor shortages and increases in labor costs may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and results of operations.

The market for qualified employees is highly competitive, particularly in light of recent labor shortages. The Company may be unable to continue to attract and retain qualified personnel. In addition, increases in labor costs have resulted in, and may continue to result in, increases in the Company’s operating expenses. If labor market disruptions and/or labor cost increases continue, the Company’s sales or service team could be short staffed and would be more costly to retain, and the Company’s ability to meet its customers’ demands or expectations could be adversely impacted, any of which could materially adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations.

The Company’s business and results may be adversely affected if the Company does not maintain its relationships with its significant suppliers or customers.

While the Company purchases the products it distributes from a number of manufacturers and suppliers, purchases from four manufacturers accounted for a total of approximately 73% and 70% of the Company’s product purchases for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. The Company believes it has good working relationships with the manufacturers or suppliers from which the Company purchases its products. However, if such relationships deteriorate or the Company is unable to maintain such relationships, including with any of its or its acquired businesses’ principal manufacturers or suppliers, the Company’s business and results could be materially and adversely impacted. In addition, efforts of the Company and its acquired businesses to mitigate any loss, including brand shifts, may not be successful. Further, the Company does not have contracts with all of its manufacturers, and certain contracts the Company does have are short term agreements and can be terminated on short notice. In addition, suppliers may not comply with the terms of any agreements or may choose to terminate such agreements, allow such agreements to expire without renewal, or seek to revise the agreements on terms which are less favorable to the Company than the prevailing terms, any of which could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business and results.

In addition, while the Company distributes its products to various users, including, but not limited to, vended laundry facilities, industrial laundry facilities, government institutions, correctional facilities, hospitals, hospital combines, nursing homes, veterinary clinics, professional sports franchises, educational institutions, hotels, motels, food and beverage establishments, cruise lines, and specialized users, the Company’s operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely impacted if the Company loses a significant customer or fails to meet its customers’ expectations.

The products the Company distributes could fail to perform according to specifications or prove to be unreliable, which could damage the Company’s customer relationships and industry reputation and result in lawsuits and loss of sales.

The Company’s customers require demanding specifications for product performance and reliability. Product defects or other failures to perform to specifications or as expected could result in higher service costs and may damage the Company’s customer relationships and industry reputation and/or otherwise negatively impact the Company’s business, operations and results. Further, the Company may be subject to lawsuits if, among other things, any of the products it distributes fails to operate properly or causes property or other physical damage.

The Company faces substantial competition.

The commercial and industrial laundry distribution and service business is highly competitive and fragmented, with over 500 full-line or partial-line equipment distributors and service providers in the United States. The Company’s management believes that no single competitor of the Company has a major share of the market, substantially all competitors are independently owned, and, with the exception of several regional distributors, distributors operate primarily in local markets. In the United States, the Company’s primary competition is from a number of independently owned distributors and certain manufacturers which own distribution businesses operating in North America. In foreign markets, the Company also competes with independently owned distributors and manufacturer-owned distribution businesses. Certain of the Company’s competitors may have greater financial and other resources than the Company. In addition, some of the Company’s competitors may have less indebtedness than the Company, and therefore may have more cash and working capital available for business purposes other than debt service. The Company’s results and financial condition would be materially and adversely impacted if the Company is unable to compete effectively. Further, the Company may not be able to adjust efficiently or effectively or otherwise operate profitably if the competitive environment changes.

The Company also competes for qualified employees and, in light of labor market disruptions, such competition has been more intense and led to increases in the costs of labor. See “Labor shortages and increases in labor costs may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and results of operations” above.

The Company faces risks associated with environmental and other regulation.

The Company’s business and operations are subject to federal, state, local and foreign environmental and other laws and regulations, including environmental laws governing the discharge of pollutants, the handling, generation, storage and disposal of hazardous materials, substances, and wastes and the cleanup of contaminated sites. As a public company, the Company will also be subject to any rules and regulations of the SEC and any applicable securities exchange concerning environmental and other social issues, which may result in increased costs and compliance efforts. The Company is also subject to rules and regulations with respect to its contracts and dealings with government facilities. The Company may not remain in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and could be required to incur significant costs as a result of violations of, liabilities under, or efforts to comply with, applicable laws and regulations. In addition, violations may have other adverse implications for the Company, including negative public relations and potential litigation. Further, the Company may incur significant compliance costs in the event of changes to applicable laws and regulations.

Unexpected events, such as public health issues, natural disasters, geopolitical conflicts, civil unrest, severe weather and terrorist activities, may disrupt the Company’s operations and increase its costs.

The outbreak of a pandemic or public health crisis may adversely impact the Company.  As previously disclosed, the Company was adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic beginning at the end of the quarter ended March 31, 2020; specifically, due to delays and declines in the placement of customer orders, the completion of equipment and parts installations, and the fulfillment of parts orders. Any future pandemic or public health crisis may have similar or worse effects than those experienced in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic and may exacerbate certain of the other risks set forth herein. 

The occurrence of other unexpected events, including natural disasters, civil unrest, geopolitical conflicts (including the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia as well as the conflict in the Middle East) and/or terrorist activities could adversely affect the Company’s operations and financial performance, including that the escalation of any conflicts or the expansion of any conflicts to impact additional regions could heighten many of the other risk factors included in this Item 1A.

The Company faces risks related to its foreign sales.

The Company’s revenues from foreign sales relate principally to the Company’s sales of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and boilers to Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. All of the Company’s foreign sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which customers and competitors are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located.

Further, conducting an international business inherently involves a number of difficulties, risks and uncertainties, such as:

Any of the above factors may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, prospects, operating results or financial condition.

Damages to, or disruptions at, the Company’s facilities or the facilities of a supplier or customer could adversely impact the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

Although the Company has certain limited protection afforded by insurance, the Company’s business, earnings and financial condition could be materially adversely affected if it suffers damages to, or disruptions at, its facilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s facilities, including those located in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Texas and the Northeast United States, are subject to hurricane casualty and flood risk, and facilities in California are subject to earthquake and wildfire casualty risk. In addition, damages to the facility of a supplier, whether due to, fire, natural disaster or other events, would adversely impact the Company’s ability to obtain products from that supplier when expected or at all and, accordingly, may result in delays in the delivery of the Company’s products or the provision of its services. Further, damages to the facility of a customer may adversely impact the business of the customer and its need for products or services from the Company or result in delays in the delivery of products or provision of services to the customer. Any of these events may materially and adversely impact the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company’s assets may suffer uninsured losses.

The Company attempts to ensure that its assets, including the equipment and parts that it sells, are adequately insured to cover property and casualty losses as well as any other liabilities to which the Company is reasonably expected to be subject. However, insurance may be expensive or difficult to obtain, and there are certain types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, pollution, fire or environmental disasters or other matters, which are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. In addition, there may in certain cases be questions as to when the risk of loss related to products sold is transferred to the customer. If the equipment suffers a loss and risk of loss is deemed not to have transferred to the customer, the Company may be liable for the loss, which may not be insured. If the Company’s insurance coverage is not adequate, or the Company otherwise incurs uninsured losses, the Company’s operating results and financial condition would be adversely impacted.

The Company may also be subject to insured losses relating to breaches of its information technology systems. See also “The Company could be negatively affected by cyber or other security threats or other disruptions or failures to maintain the integrity of internal or customer, employee or vendor data” below.

The Company’s ability to manage its business and monitor results is highly dependent upon information and communication systems, and a failure of these systems or the Company’s ERP implementation could disrupt its business.

The Company is dependent upon a variety of internal computer and telecommunication systems to operate its business, including its enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) systems. The Company is consolidating across a number of its subsidiaries ERP software systems and related processes to perform various functions and improve on the efficiency of the Company’s business. This is a lengthy and expensive process that diverts resources from other operations, and may result in cost overruns, project delays or business interruptions.

Any disruptions, delays or deficiencies in the design and/or implementation of the new ERP system, or in the performance of legacy systems, particularly any disruptions, delays or deficiencies that impact the Company’s operations, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to effectively run and manage its information systems. Further, as the Company is dependent upon its ability to gather and promptly transmit accurate information to key decision makers, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected if the Company’s information systems do not allow the Company to transmit accurate information, even for a short period of time. Failure to properly or adequately address these issues could impact the Company’s ability to perform necessary business operations, which could adversely affect the Company’s reputation, competitive position, business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, the information systems of acquired businesses may not be sufficient to meet the Company’s standards or the Company may not be able to successfully convert them to provide acceptable information on a timely and cost-effective basis. Furthermore, the Company must attract and retain qualified personnel to operate its systems, expand and improve them, integrate new programs effectively with its existing programs, and convert to new systems efficiently when required. Any disruption to the

Company’s business due to such issues, or an increase in costs to cover these issues that is greater than anticipated, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial results and operations.

The Company could be negatively affected by cyber or other security threats or other disruptions or failures to maintain the integrity of internal or customer, employee or vendor data.

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company processes, transmits and stores sensitive Company information as well as sensitive information, including personal information, about its customers, employees and vendors. The Company’s customers, employees and vendors have a high expectation that their personal information will be adequately protected and, accordingly, the integrity and protection of such information is critical to the Company.

The processing, transmission and storage of customer, employee and vendor information requires the appropriate and secure utilization of such information and subjects the Company to risks relating thereto, including risks relating to increased focus regarding the Company's data security compliance. Cyber-attacks, including ransomware, malware and phishing, designed to gain access to sensitive information by breaching systems are constantly evolving. Furthermore, there has been heightened legislative and regulatory focus on data security in the U.S. and abroad, including requirements for varying levels of customer notification in the event of a data breach. These laws are changing rapidly and vary among jurisdictions. Requirements imposed on the Company by the payment card industry surrounding information, security and privacy are also increasingly demanding. The Company will continue its efforts to meet applicable privacy and data security obligations; however, it is possible that certain new obligations may be difficult to meet and could increase the Company's costs. In addition, the Company’s systems may be unable to satisfy changing requirements and employee and customer expectations, or may require significant additional investments or time in order to do so. Further, as the risk of cyber-attacks increases, related insurance premiums and the cost of defensive measures may also increase. In addition, the costs to remediate security incidents or breaches that may occur could be material. 

Despite the security measures and processes the Company has in place, efforts to protect sensitive Company, customer, employee and vendor information may not be successful in preventing a breach in the Company's systems or detecting and responding to a breach on a timely basis. The Company has experienced threats to, and incidents involving, its systems and information, and while none have been material to date, cyber-attacks are generally becoming more frequent, intense, and sophisticated. As a result of a security incident or breach in the Company's systems, the Company's systems could be interrupted or damaged, and/or sensitive information could be accessed by third parties. The Company's systems may also be disrupted or damaged, and/or sensitive information could be released, due to other system failures, viruses, operator error or inadvertent releases of data.  In the event of a data or security breach, the Company's customers, employees or vendors could lose confidence in the Company's ability to protect their information, which could result in the loss of key customers, employees or vendors, or the Company's reputation could otherwise be negatively impacted, any of which may have a material adverse impact on the Company's business or results. In addition, as the regulatory environment relating to the protection of sensitive data becomes stricter, a failure to comply with applicable regulations could potentially subject the Company to fines, penalties, other regulatory sanctions, or lawsuits with the possibility of substantial damages. 

In addition, damage or disruption to the Company's systems could adversely impact the Company's ability to manage or operate its business. Further, conversions to new information technology systems

require effective change management processes and may result in cost overruns, delays or business interruptions. If the Company’s information technology systems are disrupted, become obsolete or do not adequately support the Company’s strategic, operational or compliance needs, the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows may be adversely affected.

The Company could also make faulty decisions if the data it maintains regarding its customers, employees or vendors is inaccurate or incomplete.

Climate change, or legal, regulatory or market measures to address climate change, could have an adverse impact on the Company’s business and results of operations.

There is growing concern that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere may have an adverse impact on global temperatures, weather patterns, and the frequency and severity of extreme weather and natural disasters. If such climate change has a negative impact on the economy, the Company’s business and results may be adversely impacted, including due to a potential decrease in the availability of, or less favorable pricing for, water or other materials which may adversely impact the supply chain. In addition, natural disasters and extreme weather, including those caused by climate change, could cause disruptions in the Company’s operations and supply chains. Furthermore, the increasing concern over climate change may also result in greater local, state, federal, and foreign legal requirements, including requirements to limit greenhouse gas emissions or conserve resources, which may result in cost increases or adverse impacts to the supply chain.

Risks Related to the Company’s Indebtedness

The Company’s indebtedness may impact its financial condition and results of operations, and the terms of the Company’s indebtedness may place restrictions on the Company.

The Company’s level of indebtedness may have several important effects on the Company’s operations, including, without limitation, that the Company uses cash to satisfy its debt service requirements, that outstanding indebtedness and the Company’s leverage position will increase the impact on the Company of negative changes in general economic and industry conditions, as well as competitive pressures, and that the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing for acquisitions, working capital or other corporate purposes may be impacted.

The Company is a party, as borrower, to a syndicated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) in the maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. A portion of the revolving credit facility is available for swingline loans of up to a sublimit of $5 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit of up to a sublimit of $10 million. The maturity date of the Credit Agreement is May 6, 2027. The Company had $13.0 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2024.

Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate (the “BSBY rate”) plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings

before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the BSBY rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. During November 2023, Bloomberg Index Services Limited announced it will discontinue the BSBY rate on November 15, 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, in connection with the discontinuation of the BSBY rate, when determined by the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, the BSBY rate will be replaced with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a SOFR adjustment ranging from a minimum of 0.11% to a maximum of 0.43%.

The Credit Agreement contains covenants applicable to the Company, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios, as well as other covenants which may place restrictions on, among other things, liens, investments, indebtedness, fundamental changes, acquisitions, dispositions of property, making specified restricted payments (including cash dividends and stock repurchases that would result in the Company exceeding an agreed to Consolidated Leverage Ratio), and transactions with affiliates.

The Company may incur additional debt financing as determined to be appropriate by management, including in connection with the financing of acquisitions or other strategic transactions or otherwise, which would increase the Company’s vulnerability to the risk factors described above related to its level of indebtedness and may place restrictions on the Company similar or in addition to those contained in the Credit Agreement. There is no assurance that the Company will receive any financing which the Company may seek to obtain in the future on acceptable terms or at all, including in the event additional funds are necessary to consummate an acquisition or other strategic transaction or support the Company’s business operations.

Risks Related to Ownership of the Company’s Common Stock

The Company’s management may be deemed to control the Company.

The Company’s management, including Henry M. Nahmad, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and the Company’s Board of Directors through stockholders agreement granting it the right to direct the voting of certain shares issued as consideration in acquisitions, may be deemed to control the Company as a result of their collective voting power over shares representing approximately 57.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of June 30, 2024. Under the Company’s Bylaws, directors are elected by a plurality vote and all other matters put to a vote of the Company’s stockholders require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the Company’s common stock represented at a meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote on the matter unless a greater percentage is required by applicable law. Consequently, other than in very limited circumstances where a greater vote is required by applicable law, Mr. Nahmad and the other members of the Company’s management, without the consent or vote of any other stockholders of the Company, have the voting power to elect directors and approve other actions that require stockholder approval. The interests of the Company’s management may conflict with the interests of the Company’s other stockholders and also could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company or its management and/or adversely impact the market price of the Company’s common stock or the ability

of the Company’s other stockholders to receive a premium for their shares in connection with any sale of the Company.

Further, as a result of management’s controlling voting position with respect to the Company’s common stock, the Company is a “controlled company” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE American, on which the Company’s common stock is listed. As a “controlled company,” the Company is not required under the listing standards of the NYSE American to comply with certain corporate governance requirements set forth therein, including:

While executive compensation matters are determined by a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors and the Company’s Board of Directors is currently comprised of, and has historically generally been comprised of, a majority of independent directors, the Company does not have a standing nominating/corporate governance committee and the Company has in the past from time to time maintained a Board of Directors not comprised of a majority of independent directors. In addition, in the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company may choose to utilize or continue to utilize any or all of the exceptions in the future. As a result, the Company’s stockholders may not have certain of the same protections as a stockholder of other publicly-traded companies which are not “controlled companies” and the market price of the Company’s common stock may be adversely affected.

The concentration of ownership with respect to the Company’s common stock also results in there being a limited trading volume, which may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell their shares and increase the price volatility of the Company’s common stock.

As a “smaller reporting company,” the Company may avail itself of reduced disclosure requirements, which may make the Company’s common stock less attractive to investors.

Under applicable SEC rules and regulations, the Company is a “smaller reporting company” and will continue to be a “smaller reporting company” for so long as the market value of the Company’s common stock held by non-affiliates as of the end of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter is less than $250 million. As a “smaller reporting company,” the Company has relied on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies. The Company may continue to rely on such exemptions for so long as the Company remains a “smaller reporting company.” These exemptions include reduced financial disclosure and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. The Company’s reliance on these exemptions may result in the public finding the Company’s common stock to be less attractive and adversely impact the market price of, or trading market for, the Company’s common stock.

The issuance of preferred stock and common stock, and the authority of the Company’s Board of Directors to approve issuances of preferred stock and common stock, could adversely affect the rights of the Company’s stockholders and have an anti-takeover effect.

As permitted by Delaware law, the Company’s Board of Directors is authorized under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to approve the issuance by the Company of up to 200,000 shares of preferred stock, and to designate the relative rights, preferences and limitations of any preferred stock so issued, in each case, without any action on the part of the Company’s stockholders. Currently, no shares of preferred stock are outstanding. In the event that the Company issues preferred stock in the future that has preference over the Company’s common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the rights of holders of shares of the Company’s common stock may be adversely affected. In addition, the Company is authorized under its Certificate of Incorporation to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of common stock. Inclusive of unvested restricted stock awards, there are currently approximately 14.0 million shares of common stock outstanding. Subject to applicable law and the rules and regulations of the NYSE American, the Company’s Board of Directors (or a committee thereof, in the case of shares issued under the Company’s equity-based compensation plan) has the power to approve the issuance of any authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s common stock, and any such issuances, including, without limitation, those under the Company’s equity-based compensation plan or pursuant to any acquisitions or other strategic transactions consummated by the Company or in connection with the financing thereof, would result in dilution to the Company’s stockholders. These provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation could also delay or prevent a change in control of the Company or its management, and could limit the price that investors are willing to pay in the future for shares of the Company’s common stock.

General Risks

The Company is subject to risks relating to evaluations of internal control over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

The Company has incurred, and expects to continue to incur, a substantial amount of management time and resources to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In this Report, the Company’s management has provided an assessment as to the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. This Report includes such attestation. However, there is no assurance that the Company will continue to timely comply with such requirements. While the material weakness in internal control identified as of June 30, 2023 has been remediated (as discussed in further detail under Item 9A (“Controls and Procedures”) of this Report), there can be no assurance that additional material weaknesses will not be identified in the future (or, if identified, remedied in a timely fashion or at all), any of which may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the Company’s compliance efforts will continue to require significant expenditures and devotion of management time, and may divert management’s attention from the Company’s operations.

In addition, while businesses acquired during the fiscal year covered by the applicable Annual Report on Form 10-K are permitted to be excluded from the scope of management’s report on internal

control over financial reporting and the related auditor attestation for such Annual Report on Form 10-K (as is the case with the exclusion of the businesses acquired by the Company in fiscal 2024 from the scope of management’s report on internal control over financial reporting and the related auditor attestation for this Report), the Company will face challenges and be required to incur expenses in connection with, and devote significant management time to, the internal control over financial reporting of acquired businesses. There is no assurance that any issues, deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in internal controls identified at acquired businesses will be remedied in a timely or cost-efficient manner or at all.

Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements due to inherent limitations in internal control systems. An internal control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. See Item 9A (“Controls and Procedures”) of this Report for related discussion.

The Company’s success depends on key personnel, the loss of whom could harm the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company’s business is dependent on the active participation of its executive officers, including Henry M. Nahmad and Tom Marks. The loss of the services of any of these individuals could adversely affect the Company’s business and prospects. In addition, the Company’s success is dependent on its ability to retain and attract additional qualified management and other personnel. Competition for such talent is intense, and the Company may not be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel.

Litigation and legal and regulatory proceedings, the costs of defending the same and the impact of any finding of liability or damages could adversely impact the Company and its financial condition and operating results.

The Company may from time to time become subject to litigation and other legal and regulatory proceedings. Litigation and other legal and regulatory proceedings may require the Company to incur significant expenses, including those relating to legal and other professional fees. In addition, litigation and other legal and regulatory proceedings are inherently uncertain, and adverse outcomes in litigation or other legal proceedings could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

None.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity.

The Company has established security practices and safeguards designed to help identify and protect against intentional and unintentional misappropriation or corruption of its information technology systems, data, and operational continuity. The Company conducts risk assessments to identify potential cybersecurity threats, which include evaluating the likelihood and potential impact of these threats, identifying system and network vulnerabilities, and assessing the effectiveness of the Company’s existing controls. Upon identification and assessment of risks, the Company develops and implements what

management believes to be appropriate measures in order to manage these risks, which may involve enhancing security controls, implementing new technologies, training employees, or changing business processes. The Company maintains change management processes, monitoring practices, and data protection measures designed to mitigate cybersecurity risks and regularly test its systems for potential threats. Such processes and practices to assess, identify, and manage cybersecurity incidents are integrated into the Company’s overall enterprise risk assessment process.

The Company’s information security team, which is led by the Company’s Director of Information Technology and also includes the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and other members of the Company’s internal audit and finance departments, is responsible for assessing and managing the Company’s cybersecurity risks and data protection practices. The Company’s Director of Information Technology has over 10 years of experience in managing cybersecurity risks and advising on cybersecurity matters.

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight of management’s efforts to address cybersecurity risks. The Board of Directors has designated the Audit Committee with the responsibility of overseeing and reporting to the Board on management's handling of cybersecurity risk management and on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s cybersecurity risk management strategy. Management also updates the Audit Committee and the Board on an on-going basis concerning any significant cybersecurity incidents or risk exposures that have come to management’s attention during the conduct of their assessments, the steps management has taken to mitigate such exposures, and any changes to the processes of identifying, assessing, and monitoring cybersecurity threats.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Company has not identified any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.

Item 2. Properties.

The Company’s principal executive offices are located in Miami, Florida. The Company’s principal properties include warehousing and distribution facilities and administrative office space, all of which are leased (generally for terms of three to ten years).

At June 30, 2024, the Company had a total of 32 warehousing and distribution facilities and administrative facilities located across 19 U.S. states. Senior management and support staff are located at the Company’s principal executive offices and other administrative offices mostly adjacent to the Company’s warehousing and distribution facilities. The facilities have an aggregate of approximately 400,000 square feet of space. The Company believes that its facilities are sufficient to meet the Company’s present operating needs.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may from time to time be involved in, or subject to, legal and regulatory claims, proceedings, demands or actions. Litigation and other proceedings are inherently uncertain and the outcome thereof cannot be predicted or determined in advance. In addition, the Company’s costs of defending against litigation and other proceedings, demands and actions could be material and would generally be payable by the Company regardless of the merits of the claim. As of the date of filing of this Report, the Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings to which the Company, including any of its subsidiaries, is a party which is expected to be material to the Company.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

The Company’s common stock is traded on the NYSE American under the symbol “EVI.”

As of September 5, 2024, there were approximately 157 holders of record of the Company’s common stock.

The declaration and payment of cash dividends with respect to the Company’s common stock is determined by the Company’s Board of Directors based on the Company’s financial condition and liquidity needs and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors, and may be subject to restrictions contained in the Company’s debt instruments. As described elsewhere in this Report, including under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in Item 7 of this Report, the Company’s Credit Agreement contains certain covenants which may, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to pay dividends, and any future facilities may contain similar or more stringent requirements. The Company’s management does not believe that the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement currently materially limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends or are reasonably likely to materially limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends in the future.

On October 4, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.28 per share (totaling approximately $4.1 million in the aggregate), which was paid on October 26, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 16, 2023. No dividends were declared or paid during fiscal year 2023.

On September 11, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.31 per share to be paid on October 7, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 26, 2024. As described above, future dividends will be considered in light of the Company’s financial position and liquidity needs, and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors.

See Part III, Item 12 of this Report for information regarding securities authorized for issuance under the Company’s equity-based compensation plans.

The Company does not have in place any formal share repurchase plans or programs. Upon request by a recipient of awards granted under the Company’s equity incentive plan, the Company may issue shares upon vesting of restricted stock awards or upon issuance of stock awards, net of the statutory withholding requirements that the Company pays on behalf of its employees. For financial statement purposes, the shares withheld are treated as being repurchased by the Company and are reflected as repurchases in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and shareholders’ equity as they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon vesting.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

General

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto contained in Item 8 of this Report. See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” preceding Part I, Item 1 of this Report.

Overview

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is a value-added distributor, and provides advisory and technical services. Through its vast sales organization, the Company provides its customers with planning, designing, and consulting services related to their commercial laundry operations. The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment, specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers with installation, maintenance, and repair services.

The Company’s customers include government, institutional, industrial, commercial and retail customers. Product purchases made by customers range from parts and accessories, to single or multiple units of equipment, to large complex systems. The Company also provides its customers with the services described above.

Beginning in 2015, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy which includes (i) the consideration and pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions which management believes may complement the Company’s existing business or otherwise offer growth opportunities for, or benefit, the Company and (ii) the implementation of a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain additional initiatives, which may include investments in additional sales and service personnel, new product lines, enhanced service operations and capabilities, new and improved facilities, and advanced technologies. See “Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy” below for information regarding business acquisitions consummated during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) and the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”).

The Company reports its results of operations through a single operating and reportable segment.

Total revenues for fiscal 2024 decreased by less than 1% compared to fiscal 2023. The decrease in revenues during fiscal 2024 is due primarily to the timing of receipt and delivery of products to customers due to construction or other delays which impacted the ability of certain customers to receive products. Additionally, there were large industrial jobs completed during fiscal 2023 which generated significant revenues. These decreases were offset in part by price increases established throughout the Company’s product lines and service offerings aimed at maintaining or increasing margins to cover incremental product and operating cost increases, and revenues generated by businesses acquired by the Company during fiscal 2024 as well as businesses acquired by the Company during fiscal 2023 whose results were consolidated in the Company’s financial statements for all of fiscal 2024 as compared to just the period of fiscal 2023 from the respective closing date of the acquisition through the end of fiscal 2023.

Net income for fiscal 2024 decreased by 42% from fiscal 2023. The decrease in net income was attributable primarily to increases in selling, general, and administrative expenses.

The Company’s operating expenses consist primarily of (a) selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily salaries, and commissions and marketing expenses that are variable and correlate to changes in sales, (b) expenses related to the operation of warehouse facilities, including a fleet of installation and service vehicles, and facility rent, which are payable mostly under non-cancelable operating leases, and (c) operating expenses at the parent company, including compensation expenses, fees for professional services, expenses associated with being a public company, including increased expenses attributable to the Company’s investments for future growth, and expenses in furtherance of the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy.

Buy-and Build Growth Strategy

The Company’s acquisitions under its “buy-and-build” growth strategy described above during fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 were as follows:

During fiscal 2023, the Company acquired Massachusetts-based Aldrich Clean-Tech Equipment Corp., North Carolina-based K&B Laundry Service, LLC, Alabama-based Wholesale Commercial Laundry Equipment Company SE, LLC, and Maryland-based Gluno, Inc. (d/b/a Express Parts and Services). The total consideration for these transactions consisted of $2.4 million in cash and the issuance of 24,243 shares of the Company’s common stock.

During fiscal 2024, the Company acquired Pennsylvania-based ALVF, Inc. (d/b/a ALCO Washer Center) and Texas-based Signature Services Corporation (d/b/a Ed Brown Distributors). The total consideration for these transactions consisted of $1.9 million in cash and the issuance of 8,621 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The acquired companies generally distribute commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provide installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. Acquisitions are generally effected by the Company through a separate wholly-owned subsidiary formed by the Company for the purpose of effecting the transaction, whether by an asset purchase or merger, and operating the acquired business following the transaction. The Company, indirectly through its applicable wholly-owned subsidiary, also assumes certain of the liabilities of the acquired business. The financial position, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of the acquired businesses following the respective closing dates of the acquisitions are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In addition to the foregoing, on July 1, 2024, the Company acquired Florida-based Laundry Pro of Florida, Inc. for total consideration of $5.9 million in cash. The financial position, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of Laundry Pro of Florida, Inc. following the July 1, 2024 closing date of the acquisition will be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements commencing in the quarter ending September 30, 2024.

See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for additional information about the acquisitions completed by the Company during fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024, as well as the subsequent acquisition of Laundry Pro of Florida, Inc.

Consolidated Financial Condition

The Company’s total assets decreased from $253.8 million at June 30, 2023 to $230.7 million at June 30, 2024. The decrease in total assets was primarily attributable to a decrease in current assets, as

described below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.” The Company’s total liabilities decreased from $122.9 million at June 30, 2023 to $94.1 million at June 30, 2024, primarily due to decreases in accounts payable and long-term debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had approximately $4.6 million of cash at June 30, 2024 compared to $5.9 million of cash at June 30, 2023. The decrease in cash was primarily due to optional debt repayments in excess of borrowings under the Company’s credit facility, cash consideration paid in connection with the Company’s business acquisitions during fiscal 2024 and capital expenditures, offset in part by increases to cash generated from operations. The Company’s primary sources of cash are sales of products and services, and borrowings under its credit facility. The Company’s primary uses of cash are purchases of the products sold by the Company, employee related costs, and the cash consideration paid in connection with business acquisitions.

The following table summarizes the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):

For fiscal 2024, operating activities provided cash of approximately $32.7 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of approximately $0.9 million in fiscal 2023. The $31.8 million increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to decreases in accounts receivable as a result of improved collections and decreases in inventory as result of a tightening supply chain and reduced lead times, offset by decreases in net income and operating liabilities.

Investing activities used cash of approximately $6.8 million during fiscal 2024 compared to approximately $6.0 million in fiscal 2023. The $0.8 million increase in cash used by investing activities is due primarily to a greater amount of cash consideration paid for capital expenditures in fiscal 2024 as compared to fiscal 2023.

Financing activities used cash of approximately $27.2 million in fiscal 2024 compared to cash provided by financing activities of approximately $7.0 million in fiscal 2023. The $34.2 million increase in cash used by financing activities was attributable primarily to optional repayments of borrowings under the Company’s credit facility and a cash dividend paid during fiscal 2024.

The Company is a party, as borrower, to a syndicated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) in the maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. A portion of the revolving credit facility is available for swingline loans of up to a sublimit of $5 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit of up to a sublimit of $10 million. As of June 30, 2024, $66.0 million was available to borrow under the revolving credit facility.

Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate (the “BSBY rate”) plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the BSBY rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. During November 2023, Bloomberg Index Services Limited announced it will discontinue the BSBY rate on November 15, 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, in connection with the discontinuation of the BSBY rate, when determined by the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, the BSBY rate will be replaced with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a SOFR adjustment ranging from a minimum of 0.11% to a maximum of 0.43%.

The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios. The Credit Agreement also contains other provisions which may restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, dispose of or acquire assets or businesses, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and capital expenditures, pay dividends, repurchase shares and enter into transactions with affiliates. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the Credit Agreement.

The obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

The Company believes that its existing cash, anticipated cash from operations and funds available under the Company’s Credit Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operations and anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months from the filing of this Report, and thereafter. The Company may also seek to raise funds through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities or the incurrence of additional secured or unsecured indebtedness, including in connection with acquisitions or other transactions pursued by the Company as part of its “buy-and-build” growth strategy.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

Results of Operations

Revenues

Revenues for fiscal 2024 decreased by approximately $0.6 million (less than 1%) from fiscal 2023. The decrease in revenues during fiscal 2024 is due primarily to the timing of receipt and delivery of products to the Company’s customers due to construction or other delays which impacted the ability of certain customers to receive products. Additionally, there were large industrial jobs completed during the fiscal 2023 which generated significant revenues. These decreases were offset in part by price increases established throughout the Company’s product lines and service offerings aimed at maintaining or

increasing margins to cover incremental product and operating cost increases, and revenues generated by businesses acquired by the Company during fiscal 2024 as well as businesses acquired by the Company during fiscal 2023 whose results were consolidated in the Company’s financial statements for all of fiscal 2024 as compared to just the period of fiscal 2023 from the respective closing date of the acquisition through the end of fiscal 2023.

Cost of Sales and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Cost of sales, expressed as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 70.2% in fiscal 2024 from 70.7% in fiscal 2023, representing gross margins of 29.8% in fiscal 2024 and 29.3% in fiscal 2023. The decrease in cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, and increase in gross margin were primarily attributable to favorable changes in product and customer mix. The increase in gross margin is also attributable to the Company’s efforts to drive higher quality sales opportunities from promoting solution selling as a value-added distributor. Longer-term federal government contracts entered into during fiscal 2024 lowered gross margins by 30 basis points.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $6.4 million (7%) in fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023, primarily due to (a) operating expenses of acquired businesses, including additional operating expenses at the acquired businesses in pursuit of future growth and in connection with the Company’s optimization initiatives, (b) increases in salary, rent, technology costs, professional fees, and insurance costs to support the Company’s growth, and (c) stock compensation, including an increase from the acceleration of the vesting of certain restricted stock awards and restricted stock units in accordance with their terms during fiscal 2024. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 26.5% in fiscal 2024 from 24.6% in fiscal 2023.

Interest Expense

Interest expense, net increased by approximately $0.2 million (9%) in fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023. The increase is due primarily to increases in the average outstanding debt balance.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 36.4% for fiscal 2024 compared to 30.6% in fiscal 2023. The increase in the effective income tax rate in fiscal 2024 is attributable to an increase in the net impact of permanent book-tax differences resulting primarily from nondeductible compensation and lower net income.

Inflation

Inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company’s results during fiscal 2024 or fiscal 2023. However, the Company faces risks relating to inflation, including the current inflationary trend,

which may have an adverse impact on the market for the Company’s products and services, including that there is no assurance that the Company will be able to effectively increase the price of its products and services to offset increased costs.

Transactions with Related Parties

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries lease warehouse and office space from one or more of the principals (or former principals) of the Company or its subsidiaries. These leases include the following:

On October 10, 2016, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Western State Design, entered into a lease agreement pursuant to which it leases 17,600 square feet of warehouse and office space from an affiliate of Dennis Mack, a director and employee of the Company, and Tom Marks, Executive Vice President, Business Development and President of the West Region of the Company. The lease had an initial term of five years and provides for two successive three-year renewal terms at the option of the Company. Monthly base rental payments were $12,000 during the initial term of the lease. The Company exercised its option to renew the lease for the first three-year renewal term, which commenced in October 2021. Base rent for the first renewal term is $19,000 per month. In addition to base rent, Western State Design is responsible under the lease for costs related to real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, repairs and insurance. Payments under this lease totaled approximately $252,000 and $228,000 during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

On October 31, 2017, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Tri-State Technical Services, entered into lease agreements pursuant to which it leases a total of 81,000 square feet of warehouse and office space from an affiliate of Matt Stephenson, former President of Tri-State. Monthly base rental payments totaled $21,000 during the initial terms of the leases. Each lease had an initial term of five years and provides for two successive three-year renewal terms at the option of the Company. The Company exercised its option to renew the leases for the first three-year renewal term, which commenced in October 2022. Base rent for the first renewal term is $25,000. In addition to base rent, Tri-State is responsible under the leases for costs related to real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, repairs and insurance. From May 1, 2023 through May 31, 2024, Tri-State Technical Services also leased an additional 50,000 square feet of space from Mr. Stephenson for a base rental payment of $15,000 per month. Payments under these leases totaled approximately $493,000 and $306,000 during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

On November 1, 2018, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AAdvantage Laundry Systems, entered into a lease agreement pursuant to which it leases warehouse and office space from an affiliate of Mike Zuffinetti, former Chief Executive Officer of AAdvantage. Monthly base rental payments under this lease were $26,000 initially. Pursuant to the lease agreement, on January 1, 2019, the lease expanded to cover additional warehouse space and, in connection therewith, monthly base rental payments under this lease increased to $36,000. In addition to base rent, AAdvantage is responsible under the lease for costs related to real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, repairs and insurance. The lease had an initial term of five years and provides for two successive three-year renewal terms at the option of the Company. The Company exercised its option to renew the lease for the first three-year renewal term. Base rent for the first renewal term is $40,000 per month. Payments under this lease totaled approximately $464,000 and $432,000 during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

On November 3, 2020, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Yankee Equipment Systems, entered into a lease agreement pursuant to which it leases a total of 12,500 square feet of warehouse and office space from an affiliate of Peter Limoncelli, President of Yankee Equipment Systems. Monthly base

rental payments were $11,000 during the initial term of the lease. In addition to base rent, Yankee Equipment Systems is responsible under the lease for costs related to real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, repairs and insurance. The lease had an initial term of three years and provides for three successive three-year renewal terms at the option of the Company. The Company exercised its option to renew this lease for the first three-year renewal term. Base rent for the first year of the renewal term is $12,500 per month. Payments under this lease totaled approximately $150,000 and $146,000 during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Use of Estimates

In connection with the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company makes estimates and assumptions, including those that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Estimates and assumptions made may not prove to be correct, and actual results may differ from the estimates. The accounting estimates that the Company has identified as critical to its business operations and to an understanding of the Company’s financial statements are set forth below. The critical accounting estimates discussed below are not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of the Company’s accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP, with no need for management’s judgment in their application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result.

Revenue Recognition

Performance Obligations and Revenue Over Time

Revenue primarily consists of revenues from the sale or leasing of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and steam and hot water boilers manufactured by others; the sale of related replacement parts and accessories; and the provision of installation and maintenance services. The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of equipment and parts to customers. Therefore, the majority of the Company’s contracts are short-term in nature and have a single performance obligation (to deliver products), and the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied when control of the product is transferred to the customer. Other contracts contain a combination of equipment sales and services expected to be performed in the near-term, which services are distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Judgment may be required by management to identify the distinct performance obligations within each contract. Revenue is recognized on these contracts when control transfers to the Company’s customers via shipment of products or provision of services and the Company has the right to receive consideration for these products and services. Additionally, from time to time, the Company enters into longer-termed contracts which provide for the sale of equipment by the Company and the provision by the Company of related installation and construction services. The installation on these types of contracts is usually completed within six to twelve months. The Company recognizes a portion of its revenue over time using the cost-to-cost measure of progress, which measures a contract’s progress toward completion based on the ratio of actual contract costs incurred to date to the Company’s estimated costs at completion adjusted for uninstalled materials, as necessary.  Significant judgment may be required by management in the cost estimation process for these contracts, which is based on the knowledge and experience of the Company’s

project managers, subcontractors and financial professionals. Changes in job performance and job conditions are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts and the Company’s revenue recognition.  The determination of the total estimated cost and progress toward completion requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Total estimated costs to complete projects include various costs such as direct labor, material and subcontract costs. Changes in these estimates can have a significant impact on the revenue recognized each period. From time to time, the Company also enters into maintenance and service contracts. These longer-term contracts, maintenance and service contracts have a single performance obligation where revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost measure of progress, which best depicts the continuous transfer of control of goods or services to the customer.

The Company measures revenue, including shipping and handling fees charged to customers, as the amount of consideration it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for its products or services, net of any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. Costs associated with shipping and handling activities performed after the customer obtains control are accounted for as fulfillment costs.

Revenue from products transferred to customers at a point in time is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with the Company’s customer are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control upon shipment.

Revenues that are recognized over time include (i) longer-termed contracts that include an equipment purchase with installation and construction services, (ii) maintenance contracts, and (iii) service contracts.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets and liabilities are presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets consist of unbilled amounts resulting from sales under longer-term contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. As noted above, the cost estimation process for these contracts may require significant judgment by management. The Company typically receives progress payments on sales under longer-term contracts as work progresses, although for some contracts the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment. Contract assets also include retainage. Retainage represents a portion of the contract amount that has been billed, but for which the contract allows the customer to retain a portion of the billed amount (generally, from 5% to 20% of contract billings) until final contract settlement. Retainage amounts are generally classified as current assets within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Retainage that has been billed, but is not due until completion of performance and acceptance by customers, is generally expected to be collected within one year. Contract liabilities consist of advanced payments, billings in excess of costs incurred and deferred revenue.

Goodwill

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing 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. If the

reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit's carrying value is compared to its fair value. If the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. This step compares the current implied goodwill in the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the implied goodwill, an impairment is recorded for the excess. The identification and measurement of goodwill impairment involves the estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit and involves uncertainty because management must use judgment in determining appropriate assumptions to be used in the measurement of fair value. The Company performed its annual impairment test on April 1, 2024 and determined there was no impairment.

Customer Relationships, Tradenames and Other Intangible Assets

Customer relationships, tradenames, non-competes, and other intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. These assets with a finite-life are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated future periods to be benefited (5-10 years). The estimates of fair value of the Company’s indefinite-lived intangibles are based on information available as of the date of the assessment and take into account management’s assumptions about expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques. The Company reviews the recoverability of intangible assets that are amortized based primarily upon an analysis of undiscounted cash flows from the intangible assets. In the event the expected future cash flows become less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss would be recorded in the period the determination is made based on the fair value of the related assets.

Income Taxes

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.

Significant judgment is required in developing the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against the deferred tax assets. Management evaluates the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts its valuation allowance when it believes that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized.

See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for additional information regarding income taxes.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for a description of Recently Issued Accounting Guidance.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk is defined as the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market valuations resulting from interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk and equity price risk. The Company’s primary market risk is interest rate risk.

The Company’s indebtedness subjects the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rates are subject to the influence of economic conditions generally, both domestic and foreign, and also to the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States and its agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve. The nature and timing of any changes in such policies or general economic conditions and the effect they may have on the Company are unpredictable. The Company’s indebtedness may also have other important impacts on the Company, including that the Company will be required to utilize cash flow to service the debt, indebtedness may make the Company more vulnerable to economic downturns, and the Company’s indebtedness subjects the Company to covenants, which may place restrictions on its operations and activities, including its ability to pay dividends and take certain other actions. Interest on borrowings under the Company’s Credit Agreement accrue at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) the BSBY rate plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the BSBY rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. During November 2023, Bloomberg Index Services Limited announced it will discontinue the BSBY rate on November 15, 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, in connection with the discontinuation of the BSBY rate, when determined by the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, the BSBY rate will be replaced with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a SOFR adjustment ranging from a minimum of 0.11% to a maximum of 0.43%. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $13.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement, which accrued interest at a weighted average rate of 6.64%. Based on the amounts outstanding at June 30, 2024, a hypothetical 1% increase in daily interest rates would increase the Company’s annual interest expense by approximately $130,000.

All of the Company’s export sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Accordingly, foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located. The Company has, at times in the past, paid certain suppliers in Euros. The Company had no foreign exchange contracts outstanding at June 30, 2024 or 2023.

The Company’s cash is maintained in bank accounts which bear interest at prevailing interest rates. While depositary accounts are covered by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC“) insurance and the Company does not currently believe that it is exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the banks in which the Company’s cash is held, there recently have been adverse events related to the soundness of financial institutions, including a number of smaller bank failures, and the Company has exposure to the extent its cash balances exceed the current $250,000 in maximum FDIC coverage.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the 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 audits 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.

Our audits 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 audits 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 audits provide 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) relates 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 critical audit matters 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 separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue Recognition – Estimated Costs to Complete

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes a portion of its revenue over time using the cost-to-cost measure of progress, which measures a contract’s progress toward completion based on the ratio of actual contract costs incurred to date to the Company’s estimated costs at completion, adjusted for uninstalled materials, as necessary.  The cost estimation process for these contracts is based on the knowledge and experience of the Company’s project managers, subcontractors and financial professionals. Changes in job performance and job conditions are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts and the Company’s revenue recognition.  

We identified the determination of the total estimated cost and progress toward completion of revenue contracts as a critical audit matter. These elements require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Total estimated costs to complete projects include various costs such as direct labor, material and subcontract costs. Changes in these estimates can have a significant impact on the revenue recognized each period. Auditing these elements involved auditor judgment in evaluating the reasonableness of management’s assumptions and estimates over the duration of these contracts.  

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
