FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, contains both historical and forward-looking statements. We may, in some cases, use words such as "project," "predict," "believe," "anticipate," "plan," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "should," "would," "could," "potentially," "may," or other words that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify these forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws. Forward looking statements include, among other things, (i) statements about our expectations for our results of operation, net income, adjusted EBITDA, liquidity, capital resources and ability to make quarterly distributions and (ii) our plans, strategies and objectives for future operations, including our planned capital expenditures. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, such as those disclosed or incorporated by reference in our filings with the SEC. Important factors that could cause our actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those estimates or projections contained in our forward-looking statements include, among other things:


•	the adverse impact on the U.S. and global economy, including the markets in which we operate, of the novel coronavirus, which causes the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic, and the impact in the near, medium and long-term on our business, results of operations, financial position, liquidity or cash flows;


•	our ability to successfully operate our businesses on a combined basis, and to effectively integrate and improve future acquisitions;


•	our ability to remove CGM and CGM’s right to resign;


•	our organizational structure, which may limit our ability to meet our dividend and distribution policy;


•	our ability to service and comply with the terms of our indebtedness;


•	our cash flow available for distribution and reinvestment and our ability to make distributions in the future to our shareholders;


•	our ability to pay the management fee and profit allocation if and when due;


•	our ability to make and finance future acquisitions;


•	our ability to implement our acquisition and management strategies;


•	the regulatory environment in which our businesses operate;


•	trends in the industries in which our businesses operate;


•	changes in general economic or business conditions or economic or demographic trends in the United States and other countries in which we have a presence, including changes in interest rates and inflation;


•	environmental risks affecting the business or operations of our businesses;


•	our and CGM’s ability to retain or replace qualified employees of our businesses and CGM;


•	costs and effects of legal and administrative proceedings, settlements, investigations and claims; and


•	extraordinary or force majeure events affecting the business or operations of our businesses.

Our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Additional risks of which we are not currently aware or which we currently deem immaterial could also cause our actual results to differ.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking events discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Such adjustments consist solely of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any subsequent interim period. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Holdings and all majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2019, the Company completed the sale of FHF Holdings Ltd. ("Manitoba Harvest"), the parent company of Fresh Hemp Foods Ltd. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2019, the Company completed the sale of CEHI Acquisition Corp. ("Clean Earth"), the parent company of Clean Earth Holdings, Inc. and Clean Earth Inc. The results of operations of Manitoba Harvest and Clean Earth are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Refer to Note C - "Discontinued Operations" for additional information. Unless otherwise indicated, the disclosures accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the Company's continuing operations.

Seasonality

Earnings of certain of our operating segments are seasonal in nature due to various recurring events, holidays and seasonal weather patterns, as well as the timing of our acquisitions during a given year. Historically, the third and fourth quarter produce the highest net sales during our fiscal year.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, which requires companies to present assets held at amortized cost, trade receivables and available for sale debt securities net of the amount expected to be collected. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, including historical experiences, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectibility. The guidance was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. This guidance also clarifies and simplifies other areas of ASC 740. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note B — Acquisition

Acquisition of Marucci Sports, LLC

On April 20, 2020, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into on March 6, 2020, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Wheelhouse Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”) and Wheelhouse Holdings Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Buyer (“Merger Sub”), completed a merger (the “Transaction”) with Marucci Sports, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Marucci”). Upon the completion of the Transaction, Marucci became a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer and an indirect subsidiary of the Company. Headquartered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Marucci is a leading manufacturer and distributor of baseball and softball equipment. Founded in 2009, Marucci has a product portfolio that includes wood and metal bats, apparel and accessories, batting and fielding gloves and bags and protective gear.

The Company made loans to, and purchased a 92.2% equity interest in, Marucci. The purchase price, including proceeds from noncontrolling shareholders and net of transaction costs, was $199.4 million. Marucci management and certain existing shareholders invested in the Transaction along with the Company, representing 7.8% initial noncontrolling interest on both a primary and fully diluted basis. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was determined based on the enterprise value of the acquired entity multiplied by the ratio of the number of shares acquired by the minority holders to total shares. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. CGM acted as an advisor to the Company in the acquisition and will continue to provide integration services during the first year of the Company's ownership of Marucci. CGM will receive integration service fees of $2.0 million payable quarterly over a twelve month period as services are rendered beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The Company incurred $2.0 million of transaction costs in conjunction with the Marucci acquisition, which was included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations during the second quarter of 2020.

The results of operations of Marucci have been included in the consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition. Marucci's results of operations are reported as a separate operating segment as a branded consumer business. The table below provides the preliminary recording of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition.



	Preliminary Allocation
(in thousands)	As of April 20, 2020
Assets
Cash	$	2,730
Accounts Receivable⁽¹⁾	11,471
Inventory ⁽²⁾	14,795
Property, plant and equipment ⁽³⁾	10,681
Intangible assets	99,249
Goodwill	67,733
Other current and noncurrent assets	956
Total Assets	207,615

Liabilities and noncontrolling interest
Current liabilities	6,207
Other liabilities	42,100
Noncontrolling interest	11,127
Total liabilities and noncontrolling interest	59,434

Net assets acquired	148,181
Noncontrolling interest	11,127
Intercompany loans	42,100
	$	201,408

(1) Includes $12.7 million in gross contractual accounts receivable, of which $1.2 million is not expected to be collected. The fair value of accounts receivable approximates book value acquired.

(2) Includes $4.3 million in inventory basis step-up, which will be charged to cost of goods sold. $3.0 million was amortized to cost of goods sold in the second quarter of 2020, and $1.3 million will be charged to cost of goods sold in the third quarter of 2020.

(3) Includes $2.5 million of property, plant and equipment basis step-up. The fair value of property, plant and equipment will be depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the assets.



Acquisition consideration
Purchase price	$	200,000
Cash acquired	3,750
Net working capital adjustment	158
Other adjustments	(2,500		)
Total purchase consideration	$	201,408
Less: Transaction costs	2,042
Net purchase price	$	199,366

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price presented above is based on management's estimate of the fair values using valuation techniques including the income, cost and market approach. In estimating the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the fair value estimates are based on, but not limited to, expected future revenue and cash flows, expected future growth rates and estimated discount rates. Current and noncurrent assets and current and other liabilities are valued at historical carrying values. Property, plant and equipment is valued through a purchase price appraisal and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the respective remaining useful lives of the assets. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce and non-contractual relationships, as well as

expected future synergies. The goodwill of $67.7 million reflects the strategic fit of Marucci in the Company's branded consumer business and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The purchase accounting for Marucci is preliminary and is expected to be finalized in the third quarter of 2020.

The intangible assets recorded related to the Marucci acquisition are as follows (in thousands):



Intangible Assets	Amount		Estimated Useful Life
Tradename	$	83,929	15 years
Customer relationships	11,120		15 years
Technology	4,200		15 years
	$	99,249

The tradename was valued at $83.9 million using a multi-period excess earnings methodology. The customer relationships intangible asset was valued at $11.1 million using the distributor method, a variation of the multi-period excess earnings methodology, in which an asset is valuable to the extent it enables its owners to earn a return in excess of the required returns on the other assets utilized in the business. The technology was valued at $4.2 million using a relief from royalty method.

Unaudited pro forma information

The following unaudited pro forma data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 gives effect to the acquisition of Marucci, as described above, as if the acquisition had been completed as of January 1, 2019.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on July 1, 2020, Foam Fabricators acquired substantially all of the assets of Polyfoam Corp. ("Polyfoam"), a Massachusetts-based manufacturer of protective and temperature-sensitive packaging solutions for the medical, pharmaceutical, grocery and food industries, among others. Founded in 1974, Polyfoam operates two manufacturing facilities producing highly engineered foam and injection-molded plastic solutions across a variety of end-markets. The acquisition complements Foam Fabricators' current operating footprint and provides access to a new customer base and product offerings, including Polyfoam's significant end-market exposure to cold chain (including seafood boxes, insulated shipping containers and grocery delivery totes). The purchase price was approximately $12.8 million and includes a potential earnout of $1.4 million if Polyfoam achieves certain financial metrics.

(“Tilray Subco”), to sell to Tilray, through Tilray Subco, all of the issued and outstanding securities of our majority owned subsidiary, Manitoba Harvest, for total consideration of up to C$419 million.

Note G — Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As a result of acquisitions of various businesses, the Company has significant intangible assets on its balance sheet that include goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are tested and reviewed for impairment annually as of March 31st or more frequently if facts and circumstances warrant by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Each of the Company’s businesses represent a reporting unit.

Goodwill

2020 Annual Impairment Testing

The Company uses a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative goodwill impairment testing. We determined that the Ergobaby, Foam Fabricators and Velocity reporting units required additional quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value based on qualitative factors alone. For the reporting units that were tested qualitatively for the 2020 annual impairment testing, the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that the fair value exceeded the carrying value of these reporting units.

The quantitative tests of Ergobaby, Foam Fabricators and Velocity were performed using an income approach to determine the fair value of the reporting units. For Ergobaby, the discount rate used in the income approach was 15.9% and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Ergobaby reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 14.0%. For Foam Fabricators, the discount rate used in the income approach was 13.3%, and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Foam Fabricators reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 3.8%. For Velocity, the discount rate used in the income approach was 12.8%, and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Velocity reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 16.4%.

2019 Interim Impairment Testing

Velocity Outdoor

The Company performed interim quantitative impairment testing of Velocity Outdoor at September 30, 2019. As a result of operating results below forecasts in the current period as well as a re-forecast of the Velocity business in which planned earnings and revenue fell below the forecasts of prior periods, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred in the third quarter of 2019. The Company used an income approach for the impairment test, whereby we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit based on the present value of future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimate of revenue growth rates and operating margins, and take into consideration industry and market conditions as well as company specific economic factors. The Company used a weighted average cost of capital of 12.2% in the income approach. The discount rate used was based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with business specific characteristics and Velocity's ability to execute on the projected cash flows. Based on the results of the impairment test, the fair value of Velocity did not exceed the carrying value, indicating that the goodwill at Velocity was impaired. The difference between the carrying value and fair value of the Velocity business was $32.9 million, which the Company recorded as impairment expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019.

2019 Annual Impairment Testing

All of the Company's reporting units except Liberty were tested qualitatively at March 31, 2019. We determined that the Liberty reporting unit required additional quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value based on qualitative factors alone. We used an income approach and market approach for the quantitative impairment test that was performed of the Liberty business at March 31, 2019, with equal weighting assigned to each. The discount rate used in the income approach was 14.8%. The results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Liberty reporting unit exceeded the carrying value. For the reporting units that were tested qualitatively for the 2019 annual impairment testing, the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that the fair value exceeded their carrying value.

A summary of the net carrying value of goodwill at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, is as follows (in thousands):



	Six months ended June 30, 2020			Year ended December 31, 2019
Goodwill - gross carrying amount	$	563,997		$	496,264

Long lived assets

Annual indefinite lived impairment testing

The Company used a qualitative approach to test indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative impairment testing. The Company evaluated the qualitative factors of each indefinite lived intangible asset in connection with the annual impairment testing for 2020 and 2019. Results of the qualitative analysis indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units that maintain indefinite lived intangible assets exceeded the carrying value. The Ergobaby and Liberty reporting units have indefinite lived trade names that were tested in conjunction with the goodwill impairment tests at March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the trade names were not impaired.

Note I — Debt

2018 Credit Facility

On April 18, 2018, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2018 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2014 Credit Facility, originally dated as of June 6, 2014 (as previously amended) among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The 2018 Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets of the Company, including all of its equity interests in, and loans to, its consolidated subsidiaries. The 2018 Credit Facility provides for (i) revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit (the “2018 Revolving Credit Facility”) up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million, and (ii) a $500 million term loan (the “2018 Term Loan”). The 2018 Credit Facility also permits the Company, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain additional term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million (the “Incremental Loans”), subject to certain restrictions and conditions.

2018 Revolving Credit Facility

All amounts outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility will become due on April 18, 2023, which is the maturity date of loans advanced under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow principal under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility from time to time during its term.

Under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, an aggregate amount of up to $100 million in letters of credit may be issued, as well as swing line loans of up to $25 million outstanding at one time. The issuance of such letters of credit and the making of any swing line loan would reduce the amount available under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility.

2018 Term Loan

The 2018 Term Loan was issued at an original issuance discount of 99.75%. The 2018 Term Loan required quarterly payments of $1.25 million commencing June 30, 2018, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on April 18, 2025, the maturity date of the 2018 Term Loan. In July 2019, the Company repaid approximately $193.8 million of the 2018 Term Loan using a portion of the proceeds received from the sale of Clean Earth, and in November 2019, the Company repaid the remaining $298.8 million balance due under the 2018 Term Loan.

Net availability under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $598.8 million at June 30, 2020. Letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2020 totaled approximately $1.2 million. At June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants as defined in the 2018 Credit Facility.

Senior Notes

On April 18, 2018, the Company consummated the issuance and sale of $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.000% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Existing Notes”) offered pursuant to a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and to non-U.S. persons under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Existing Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 18, 2018 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

On May 7, 2020, the Company consummated the issuance and sale of $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.000% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Additional Notes", and, together with the Existing Notes, the "Senior Notes"). The Additional Notes were issued under the Indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The proceeds from the Additional Notes were used to pay down the amount outstanding on the Company's 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Additional Notes were issued at 101% of par value and the resulting $2 million premium will be amortized over the remaining term of the Additional Notes.

The Senior Notes bear interest at the rate of 8.000% per annum and will mature on May 1, 2026. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash on May 1st and November 1st of each year. The first interest payment date on the Additional Notes will be November 1, 2020. The Senior Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are not guaranteed by the subsidiaries through which the Company currently conducts substantially all of its operations. The Senior Notes rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, and rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness, if any. The Senior Notes will be effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, including the indebtedness under the Company’s credit facilities described above.

The Indenture contains several restrictive covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on the following: (i) the incurrence of additional indebtedness, (ii) restricted payments, (iii) dividends and other payments affecting restricted subsidiaries, (iv) the issuance of preferred stock of restricted subsidiaries, (v) transactions with affiliates, (vi) asset sales and mergers and consolidations, (vii) future subsidiary guarantees and (viii) liens, subject in each case to certain exceptions.

The Company will at all times have the identical number of trust interests outstanding as Trust shares. Each Trust share represents an undivided beneficial interest in the Trust, and each Trust share is entitled to one vote per share on any matter with respect to which members of the Company are entitled to vote.

Secondary Offering

In May 2020, the Company completed an offering of 5,000,000 Trust common shares at a public offering price of $17.60 per share. The net proceeds to the Company, after deducting the underwriter's discount and offering costs, totaled approximately $83.9 million.

Profit Allocation Interests

The Allocation Interests represent the original equity interest in the Company. The holders of the Allocation Interests ("Holders") are entitled to receive distributions pursuant to a profit allocation formula upon the occurrence of certain events. The distributions of the profit allocation are paid upon the occurrence of the sale of a material amount of capital stock or assets of one of the Company’s businesses ("Sale Event") or, at the option of the Holders, at each five-year anniversary date of the acquisition of one of the Company’s businesses ("Holding Event"). The Company records distributions of the profit allocation to the Holders upon occurrence of a Sale Event or Holding Event as distributions declared on Allocation Interests to stockholders’ equity when they are approved by the Company’s board of directors.

Holding Event

The five-year anniversary of the acquisition of Sterno Products occurred in October 2019 which represented a Holding Event. The Company declared and paid a distribution to the Allocation Member of $9.1 million in February 2020. The ten-year anniversary of Liberty occurred in March 2020 which represented a Holding Event. The Holders elected to defer the distribution of $3.3 million until after the end of 2020.

Sale Events

The sales of Manitoba Harvest in February 2019 and Clean Earth in June 2019 each qualified as a Sale Event under the Company's LLC Agreement. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company declared and paid a distribution to the Allocation Member of $8.0 million related to the sale of Manitoba Harvest and working capital settlements from prior Sale Events. The profit allocation distribution was calculated based on the portion of the gain on sale related to the Closing Date Consideration, less the loss on sale of shares that were received as part of the Closing Consideration. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company declared and paid a distribution to the Allocation Member of $43.3 million related to the sale of Clean Earth. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company declared and paid a distribution to the Allocation Member of $9.1 million related to the Deferred Consideration from the Manitoba Harvest sale and the working capital settlement received from the sale of Clean Earth.

Earnings per share

The Company calculates basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method which requires the Company to allocate to participating securities that have rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available only to Trust shareholders as a separate class of securities in calculating earnings per share. The Allocation Interests are considered participating securities that contain participating rights to receive profit allocations upon the occurrence of a Holding Event or Sale Event. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 reflects the incremental increase during the period in the profit allocation distribution to Holders related to Holding Events.

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 attributable to the common shares of Holdings is calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

⁽¹⁾ The contingent consideration related to Velocity's acquisition of Ravin in September 2018. The purchase price of Ravin included a potential earn-out of up to $25.0 million contingent on the achievement of certain financial metrics for the trailing twelve month period ending December 31, 2018. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated at $4.7 million at acquisition date and was calculated using a risk-adjusted option pricing model. The earnout was adjusted to $6.4 million and paid out during the year ended December 31, 2019.

Valuation Techniques

The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any of its other financial assets and liabilities during the period. For details of the Company’s fair value measurement policies under the fair value hierarchy, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

There were no assets or liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The following table provides the assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2019. Refer to "Note G – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", for a description of the valuation techniques used to determine fair value of the assets measured on a non-recurring basis in the table below.

Note M — Income taxes

Each fiscal quarter, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies that rate to its interim pre-tax earnings. In this regard, the Company reflects the full year’s estimated tax impact of certain unusual or infrequently occurring items and the effects of changes in tax laws or rates in the interim period in which they occur.

The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate in each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment, including the projected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income

earned and taxed in other jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained or as the tax environment changes. Certain foreign operations are subject to foreign income taxation under existing provisions of the laws of those jurisdictions.

The reconciliation between the Federal Statutory Rate and the effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is as follows:



	Six months ended June 30,
	2020		2019
United States Federal Statutory Rate	21.0	%	(21.0	)%
State income taxes (net of Federal benefits)	80.0		8.5
Foreign income taxes	(7.6	)	3.0
Expenses of Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC representing a pass through to shareholders ⁽¹⁾	16.9		47.9
Impact of subsidiary employee stock options	141.5		5.2
Credit utilization	(55.8	)	(4.8	)
Non-recognition of NOL carryforwards at subsidiaries	(54.9	)	9.5
Effect of Tax Act	10.0		7.0
Other	5.6		0.2
Effective income tax rate	156.7	%	55.5	%


⁽¹⁾	The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 includes a loss at the Company's parent, which is taxed as a partnership.

Note N — Defined Benefit Plan

In connection with the acquisition of Arnold, the Company has a defined benefit plan covering substantially all of Arnold’s employees at its Lupfig, Switzerland location. The benefits are based on years of service and the employees’ highest average compensation during the specific period.

The unfunded liability of $4.5 million is recognized in the consolidated balance sheet as a component of other non-current liabilities at June 30, 2020. Net periodic benefit cost consists of the following for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):



	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,
	2020			2019			2020			2019
Service cost	$	138		$	127		$	277		$	256
Interest cost	7			33			15			66
Expected return on plan assets	(20		)	(40		)	(41		)	(80		)
Amortization of unrecognized loss	56			34			113			69
Net periodic benefit cost	$	181		$	154		$	364		$	311

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, per the terms of the pension agreement, Arnold contributed $0.2 million to the plan. For the remainder of 2020, the expected contribution to the plan will be approximately $0.2 million.

The plan assets are pooled with assets of other participating employers and are not separable; therefore, the fair values of the pension plan assets at June 30, 2020 were considered Level 3.

Note O - Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and legal proceedings. While the ultimate resolution of these matters has yet to be determined, the Company does not believe that any unfavorable outcomes will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Leases

The Company and its subsidiaries lease manufacturing facilities, warehouses, office facilities, retail stores, equipment and vehicles under various operating arrangements. Certain of the leases are subject to escalation clauses and renewal periods. The Company and its subsidiaries recognize lease expense, including predetermined fixed escalations, on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease including reasonably assured renewal periods from the time that the Company and its subsidiaries control the leased property. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain of our subsidiaries have leases that contain both fixed rent costs and variable rent costs based on achievement of certain operating metrics. The variable lease expense has not been material on a historic basis and no amount was incurred during the quarter ending June 30, 2020. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $7.6 million and $14.9 million, respectively, in expense related to operating leases in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The maturities of lease liabilities at June 30, 2020 were as follows (in thousands):



2020 (excluding six months ended June 30, 2020)	$	12,318
2021	26,249
2022	24,057
2023	17,247
2024	13,382
Thereafter	42,455
Total undiscounted lease payments	$	135,708
Less: Interest	37,124
Present value of lease liabilities	$	98,584

The calculated amount of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the table above are impacted by the length of the lease term and discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company's lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the company's discretion. In general, it is not reasonably certain that lease renewals will be exercised at lease commencement and therefore lease renewals are not included in the lease term. Regarding the discount rate, Topic 842 requires the use of a rate implicit in the lease whenever this rate is readily determinable. As this rate is rarely determinable, the Company utilizes the incremental borrowing rate of the subsidiary entering into the lease arrangement, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term as adjusted for any country specific risk.

The weighted average remaining lease terms and discount rates for all of our operating leases were as follows as of June 30, 2020:



Lease Term and Discount Rate
Weighted-average remaining lease term (years)	6.18
Weighted-average discount rate	7.68	%

Management Services Agreement

The Company entered into the MSA with CGM effective May 16, 2006. The MSA provides for, among other things, CGM to perform services for the Company in exchange for a management fee paid quarterly and equal to 0.5% of the Company's adjusted net assets, as defined in the MSA. Concurrent with the June 2019 sale of Clean Earth (refer to Note C - Discontinued Operations), CGM agreed to waive the management fee on cash balances held at the Company, commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and continuing until the quarter during which the Company next borrowed under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. In March 2020, as a proactive measure to provide the Company with additional cash liquidity in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company elected to draw down $200 million on our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Company and CGM entered into a waiver agreement whereby CGM agreed to waive the portion of the management fee attributable to the cash balances held at the Company as of March 31, 2020. In addition, due to the unprecedented uncertainty as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, CGM agreed to waive 50% of the management fee calculated at June 30, 2020 that was paid in July 2020.

Integration Services Agreements

Marucci Sports, which was acquired in April 2020, entered into an Integration Services Agreement ("ISA") with CGM. The ISA provides for CGM to provide services for new platform acquisitions to, amongst other things, assist the management at the acquired entities in establishing a corporate governance program, implement compliance and reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and align the acquired entity's policies and procedures with our other subsidiaries. CGM will receive integration service fees of $2.0 million payable quarterly over a twelve month period as services are rendered beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Foam Fabricators, which was acquired in 2018, entered into an ISA with CGM. Foam Fabricators paid CGM $2.3 million over the term of the ISA, with $2.0 million paid in 2018 and $0.3 million in 2019. Integration service fees are included in selling, general and administrative expense on the subsidiaries' statement of operations in the period in which they are incurred.

The Company and its businesses have the following significant related party transactions:

Our management team’s strategy for our businesses involves:


•	utilizing structured incentive compensation programs tailored to each business to attract, recruit and retain talented managers to operate our businesses;


•	regularly monitoring financial and operational performance, instilling consistent financial discipline, and supporting management in the development and implementation of information systems to effectively achieve these goals;


•	assisting management in their analysis and pursuit of prudent organic cash flow growth strategies (both revenue and cost related);


•	identifying and working with management to execute attractive external growth and acquisition opportunities; and


•	forming strong subsidiary level boards of directors to supplement management in their development and implementation of strategic goals and objectives.

While our businesses have different growth opportunities and potential rates of growth, we work with the management teams of each of our businesses to increase the value of, and cash generated by, each business through various initiatives, including making selective capital investments to expand geographic reach, increase capacity or reduce manufacturing costs of our businesses; improving and expanding existing sales and marketing programs; and assisting in the acquisition and integration of complementary businesses. We remain focused on marketing our Company's attractive ownership and management attributes to potential sellers of middle market businesses. In addition, we continue to pursue opportunities for add-on acquisitions by our existing subsidiary companies, which can be particularly attractive from a strategic perspective.

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Operations, Financial Condition, Liquidity and Results of Operations

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governments around the world implementing increasingly stringent measures to help control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, business curtailments, particularly retail operations and non-essential businesses, school closures, and other measures. In addition, governments and central banks in several parts of the world have enacted fiscal and monetary stimulus measures to counteract the impacts of COVID-19. We continue to closely monitor the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business, including how it is impacting our customers, employees, supply chains, and distribution networks. We experienced and expect to continue to experience reductions in customer demand in several of our end-markets. We expect that the government measures taken to address the spread of the virus, the reduced operational status of some of our suppliers, the reductions in production at certain facilities, and the decrease in foot traffic at many brick and mortar retail businesses will continue to impact our operations for the remainder of 2020. The health of our team and various stakeholders is our highest priority, and we have taken multiple steps to provide support and a safe work environment.

Due to the unprecedented uncertainty as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in April CGM agreed to waive 50% of the second quarter management fee calculated at June 30, 2020 that was paid in July 2020. We continue to work with management at each of our businesses to reduce our controllable costs, including short-term actions to reduce labor costs, eliminating non-essential travel and reducing discretionary spending. Additionally, our businesses are proactively managing working capital and we have reduced our capital spending plan for the year, without deferring many key strategic ongoing initiatives.

2020 Outlook in Consideration of the COVID-19 Pandemic

For the remainder of 2020, the Company anticipates that COVID-19 will continue to have a negative impact on its results of operations, including a decrease in operating income, net income from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA as compared to the prior year. For example, the Company expects the Sterno Products division of Sterno to be negatively impacted by the pandemic due to that division's reliance on the food service industry. In addition, the Company expects Arnold Magnetics to be negatively impacted by the pandemic due to its reliance on the declining aerospace markets. As a result of the decline in operating income, net income from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA, the Company expects to have lower free cash flow for the full year compared to the prior year.

During 2019, the Company received an aggregate total of $771.6 million in net cash proceeds as a result of the divestitures of Manitoba Harvest and Clean Earth, as well as $111.0 million from the issuance and sale of Series C Preferred Shares. In May 2020, the Company completed a share offering of five million Trust common shares resulting in net proceeds of $83.9 million and issued an additional $200 million in our 8% Senior Notes. The Company believes that it currently has adequate liquidity and capital resources to meet its existing obligations, and quarterly distributions to its shareholders, as, and if, approved by the Board of Directors, over the next twelve months. However, if the Company’s operations are impacted more than expected during the third and fourth quarter of 2020 as a result of continued declining COVID-19-related economic conditions and the potential for an extended economic recession, the Company’s results of operations could be impacted more dramatically than currently anticipated and as a result, the Company’s liquidity and capital resources could be even more constrained than expected.

See Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for additional information.

Recent Events

Sale of Trust Common Shares

Issuance of Senior Notes

On May 7, 2020, the Company consummated the issuance and sale of $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.000% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Additional Notes"). The proceeds from the Additional Notes were used to pay down the amount outstanding on the Company's 2018 Revolving Credit Facility.

Acquisition of Marucci Sports, LLC

On March 6, 2020, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Wheelhouse Holdings Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Buyer”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Marucci Sports, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Marucci”), Wheelhouse Holdings Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Buyer (“Merger Sub”), and, Wheelhouse 2020 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (in its capacity as the representative of the unit holders and option holders of Marucci), pursuant to which Merger Sub was to be merged with and into Marucci (the “Merger”) such that the separate existence of Merger Sub would cease, and Marucci would survive the Merger as a subsidiary of Buyer. Headquartered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Marucci is a leading manufacturer and distributor of baseball and softball equipment. Founded in 2009, Marucci has a product portfolio that includes wood and metal bats, apparel and accessories, batting and fielding gloves and bags and protective gear.

The Buyer, via the Merger, completed the acquisition of Marucci on April 20, 2020 for a total purchase price of approximately $200 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments based on matters such as the working capital and indebtedness balances at the time of the closing. The Company funded the purchase price using funds drawn on its 2018 Revolving Credit Facility in March 2020. The Company's initial equity ownership in Marucci is approximately 92%, as certain existing stakeholders in Marucci invested in the transaction alongside the Company.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

"U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP" refer to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future performance, financial position or cash flow that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude amounts, included in the most directly comparable

measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in our financial statements, and vice versa for measures that include amounts, or are subject to adjustments that effectively include amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure as calculated and presented.

Results of Operations

The following discussion reflects a comparison of the historical results of operations of our consolidated business for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, and components of the results of operations as well as those components presented as a percent of net revenues, for each of our businesses on a stand-alone basis. For the acquisition of Marucci in April 2020, the pro forma results of operations for the Marucci business segment have been prepared as if we purchased that business on January 1, 2019. Where appropriate, relevant pro forma adjustments are reflected as part of the historical operating results of Marucci. We believe this is the most meaningful comparison for the operating results of acquired business segments. The consolidated results of operations reflect the operating results of Marucci from the date of acquisition.

In the first quarter of 2020, we began to see the impacts of COVID-19 on certain of our businesses, markets and operations, particularly those that were most affected by governmental “stay-at home” orders which led to reduced consumer traffic and either a closure of stores by some retailers or a focus on items that were deemed essential. We expected that the impact of COVID-19 and steps taken by governments to limit the spread of the virus would have a negative impact on our operations in the second quarter; April and May saw a slowdown in revenue at several of our businesses, however, we experienced a rebound in June as localities began lifting restrictions. While some of our businesses experienced downward revenue pressure as a result of the abrupt halt to large segments of the economy, our businesses are strategically diverse. Whereas some of our niche industrial businesses were more adversely impacted, certain of our consumer businesses continued to experience solid demand during the second quarter.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and will continue to have, negative impacts on our businesses, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows in the near and medium term. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business is dependent on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic and the related length of its impact on the global economy, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted at this time. The following results of operations at each of our businesses are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

Three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to three months ended June 30, 2019

Net revenues

On a consolidated basis, net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by approximately $2.5 million, or 0.7%, compared to the corresponding period in 2019. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 2019, we saw increases in net sales at Liberty ($3.8 million increase), Velocity Outdoor ($17.6 million increase), and ACI ($0.5 million increase), while our other businesses saw a decrease in net sales resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, notably Arnold ($5.2 million decrease), Foam Fabricators ($7.2 million decrease) and Sterno ($9.1 million decrease). Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of net revenues by business segment.

We do not generate any revenues apart from those generated by the businesses we own. We may generate interest income on the investment of available funds, but we expect such earnings to be minimal. Our investment in our businesses is typically in the form of loans from the Company to such businesses, as well as equity interests in those companies. Cash flows coming to the Trust and the Company are the result of interest payments on those loans, amortization of those loans and dividends on our equity ownership. However, on a consolidated basis, these items will be eliminated.

Cost of revenues

On a consolidated basis, cost of revenues increased approximately $2.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding period in 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 35.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 36.5% in the three months ended June 30, 2019. We recognized $3.0 million in expense related to the amortization of the inventory step-up resulting from our purchase price allocation of Marucci Sports during the quarter. Excluding the effect of the Marucci adjustment, gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was 35.7%. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the quarter ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019 primarily related to our niche industrial businesses, which have higher fixed costs because these businesses manufacturer their products. Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of gross profit by business segment.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expense increased approximately $3.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the corresponding period in 2019. Selling, general and administrative expense during the quarter includes expenses related to our acquisition of Marucci Sports during the current quarter. We incurred $2.0 million in acquisition related expenses and Marucci incurred approximately $4.0 million in selling, general and administrative expense during the period from acquisition through June 30, 2020. Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of selling, general and administrative expense by business segment. At the corporate level, general and administrative expense was $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2020 and $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2019. Corporate level expense in the second quarter included $0.7 million in unsuccessful acquisition costs.

Fees to manager

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1.3 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of the amortization expense associated with the intangibles that were recognized in conjunction with the preliminary purchase price allocation for Marucci.

Interest expense

We recorded interest expense totaling $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $18.4 million for the comparable period in 2019, a decrease of $7.3 million. The decrease in interest expense for the quarter reflects the repayment of our 2018 Term Loan during 2019 using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Clean Earth and proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares. This was partially offset by an increase in interest expense during the current quarter related to our issuance of an additional $200 million in our 8.000% Senior Notes.

Other income (expense)

For the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $2.4 million in other expense as compared to $0.1 million in other expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2019, an increase in expense of $2.3 million. Other income (expense) primarily reflects the movement in foreign currency at our businesses with international operations, and gains or (losses) realized on the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Income taxes

We had an income tax provision of $6.6 million from continuing operations during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to an income tax provision of $4.6 million from continuing operations during the same period in 2019. While our income from continuing operations before taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 decreased by approximately $1.5 million as compared to the prior year quarter ended June 30, 2019, our tax provision increased $2.1 million as the tax provision reflects an annual effective tax rate at our subsidiaries, the effect of state and local taxes and the related allocation of income, and the losses at our parent company, which is taxed as a partnership.

Six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to six months ended June 30, 2019

Net revenues

On a consolidated basis, net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by approximately $7.9 million, or 1.2%, compared to the corresponding period in 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 2019, we saw increases in net sales at 5.11 ($2.5 million increase), Liberty ($6.6 million increase), and Velocity ($16.9 million increase), while our other businesses saw a decrease in net sales resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, notably Arnold ($5.7 million decrease), Foam Fabricators ($9.5 million decrease) and Sterno ($17.3 million decrease). Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of net revenues by business segment.

Cost of revenues

On a consolidated basis, cost of revenues decreased approximately $2.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding period in 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 35.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 35.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of gross profit by business segment.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expense increased approximately $6.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the corresponding period in 2019. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense primarily relates to our acquisition of Marucci Sports during the current quarter. We incurred $2.0 million in acquisition related expenses and Marucci incurred approximately $4.0 million in selling, general and administrative expense during the period from acquisition through June 30, 2020. Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of selling, general and administrative expense by business segment. At the corporate level, general and administrative expense was $6.9 million in the first half of 2020 and $6.4 million in the first half of 2019.

Fees to manager

Pursuant to the Management Services Agreement ("MSA"), we pay CGM a quarterly management fee equal to 0.5% (2.0% annually) of our consolidated adjusted net assets. We accrue for the management fee on a quarterly basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred approximately $13.8 million in management fees as compared to $19.5 million in fees in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was attributable to the sale of Clean Earth in the second quarter of 2019. Concurrent with the June 2019 sale of Clean Earth, CGM agreed to waive the management fee on cash balances held at the Company, commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and continuing until the quarter during which the Company next borrowed under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. In March 2020, as a proactive measure to provide the Company with additional cash liquidity in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company elected to draw down $200 million on our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Company and CGM entered into a waiver agreement whereby CGM agreed to waive the portion of the management fee attributable to the cash balances held at the Company as of March 31, 2020. Additionally, as a result of an expected decline in earnings and cash flows in the second quarter of 2020, CGM agreed to waive 50% of the management fee calculated at June 30, 2020 that was paid in July 2020.

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1.2 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of the amortization expense associated with the intangibles that were recognized in conjunction with the preliminary purchase price allocation for Marucci.

Interest expense

We recorded interest expense totaling $19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $36.9 million for the comparable period in 2019, a decrease of $17.1 million. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 reflects the repayment of our 2018 Term Loan during 2019 using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Clean Earth and proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares, partially offset by an increase in interest expense during the current quarter related to our issuance of an additional $200 million in our 8.000% Senior Notes.

Other income (expense)

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $1.7 million in other income as compared to $5.8 million in other expense in the six months ended June 30, 2019, an increase in income of $4.1 million. Other income (expense) primarily reflects the movement in foreign currency at our businesses with international operations. The prior year also includes a $5.3 million loss on the sale of the Tilray Common Stock we received related to the sale of Manitoba Harvest.

Income taxes

We had an income tax provision of $6.9 million from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to an income tax provision of $6.0 million from continuing operations during the same period in 2019. While our income from continuing operations before taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by approximately $15.1 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, our tax provision increased $0.9 million as the tax provision reflects an annual effective tax rate at our subsidiaries, the effect of state and local taxes and the related allocation of income, and the losses at our parent company, which is taxed as a partnership. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 156.7% as compared to and effective tax rate of (55.5)% for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law. The CARES Act includes many measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws, some of which were enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) in 2017. Some of the key income tax related provisions of the CARES Act were allowing net operating losses ("NOLs") arising in 2018, 2019 or 2020 to be carried back five years, suspending the 80% taxable income limit until 2021, and increasing the taxable income threshold for the limit on the interest deduction from 30% to 50% for tax years beginning in 2019 and 2020 and allowing taxpayers to use 2019 taxable income to calculate the 2020 limit. While several of our subsidiaries were able to take advantage of the income tax related provisions during the first quarter of 2020, the CARES Act did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We continue to monitor any effects that may result from the CARES Act.

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $5.5 million, a decrease of $8.2 million as compared to net sales of $13.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. During this period, Marucci was affected by the economic slowdown resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic with baseball and softball seasons postponed throughout much of the United States. Marucci’s “brick and mortar” retail partners were forced to close as a result of the pandemic and therefore Marucci did not receive fill-in orders during this period. As a result, sales of aluminum and wood bats were significantly less during this period when compared to the prior year period. Additionally, Major League Baseball postponed their season eliminating the need for wood bats to be purchased for the professional season. During June 2020, Marucci began to see demand pick up as the baseball and softball seasons began.

ended June 30, 2020 from 26.6% in the quarter ended June 30, 2019 principally due to the lower volume in the markets as noted above, partially offset by improved operating efficiencies.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense in the three month period ended June 30, 2020 was $3.8 million, a decrease in expense of approximately $0.9 million compared to $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Selling, general and administrative expense was 15.5% of net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 15.9% in the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Net sales

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 were $24.4 million, a decrease of $7.2 million, or 22.8%, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in net sales during the quarter was due to a slow-down across our

sales segments in April and May as a result of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers' operations, offset by significant improvement in June in all sectors except appliance and automotive.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 29.9% and 29.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the decreasing price of expanded polystyrene ("EPS") resin. A majority of Foam Fabricator's products are made with EPS resin, an oil and natural gas derived polymer with an added expansion agent, therefore raw material costs will fluctuate based on the price of oil and natural gas.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $2.2 million as compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $0.5 million. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a reduction in performance-based compensation.

Income from operations

Income from operations was $2.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.5 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, based on the factors noted above.

Six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to six months ended June 30, 2019

Net sales

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $52.8 million, a decrease of $9.5 million, or 15.3%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in net sales during the first half of 2020 was due to a continued slow-down in our appliance and automotive customer sectors, as well as a general slow-down across our other customer segments in April and May, as a result of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers' operations. While most of our customer sectors saw improved performance in June, the appliance and automotive sectors continued to see a slow down in sales through the end of the quarter.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 30.3% and 28.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the decreasing price of expanded polystyrene ("EPS") resin. A majority of Foam Fabricator's products are made with EPS resin, an oil and natural gas derived polymer with an added expansion agent, therefore raw material costs will fluctuate based on the price of oil and natural gas.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $5.1 million as compared to $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $0.4 million. Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 included $0.3 million in integration service fees paid to CGM. Excluding the effect of the integration service fee, the selling, general and administrative expense in the first half of 2020 decreased approximately $0.1 million, with decreases in spending partially offset by an increase in professional fees and costs incurred to upgrade its enterprise resource planning system.

Income from operations

Income from operations was $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $7.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.5 million based on the factors noted above.

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $77.4 million, a decrease of $9.1 million, or 10.5%, compared to the same period in 2019. The net sales variance reflects a decrease in sales at Sterno Products and Sterno Home as a result of the effect of COVID-19 on the food service and retail industries during the second quarter of 2020, partially offset by favorable sales volume at Rimports of wax and essential oils in the second quarter of 2020. We expect the food service and retail industries to continue to be negatively impacted for the remainder of 2020 by COVID-19.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased from 26.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 22.2% for the same period ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in gross profit in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2019 was attributable to product mix, with lower margin sales in the second quarter of 2020, higher freight and tariff costs.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $8.9 million as compared to $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.3 million, reflecting lower salaries, commissions, and various cost savings initiatives implemented to address the effects of decreased demand from COVID-19. Selling, general and administrative expense represented 11.4% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 11.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Income from operations

Income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $4.0 million, a decrease of $4.2 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 based on the factors noted above.

Six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to six months ended June 30, 2019

Net sales

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $160.4 million, a decrease of $17.3 million, or 9.7%, compared to the same period in 2019. The net sales variance reflects a decrease in sales at Sterno Products and Sterno Home as a result of the effect of COVID-19 on the food service and retail industries during the latter half of March and the second quarter of 2020, partially offset by favorable sales volume at Rimports of wax and essential oils in the first half of 2020. We expect the food service and retail industries to continue to be negatively impacted for the remainder of 2020 by COVID-19.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 22.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 25.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in gross profit in the first half of 2020 as compared to the first half of 2019 was attributable to product mix, with lower margin sales in the first quarter of 2020, higher freight and tariff costs.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $17.8 million as compared to $20.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.4 million, reflecting lower salaries, commissions, and various cost savings initiatives implemented to address the effects of decreased demand

from COVID-19. Selling, general and administrative expense represented 11.1% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 11.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Income from operations

Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $9.2 million, a decrease of $6.9 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 based on the factors noted above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

At June 30, 2020, we had approximately $205.2 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand, an increase of $104.9 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2019. In May 2020, we completed an offering of 5,000,000 Trust common shares for net proceeds, after deducting the underwriter's discount and offering costs, of approximately $83.9 million. Also in May 2020, we issued $200 million in additional Senior Notes. We used $200 million of the proceeds from the common share offering and issuance of additional Senior Notes to pay down the outstanding amount on our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The remaining cash proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes. The majority of our cash is in non-interest bearing checking accounts or invested in short-term money market accounts and is maintained in accordance with the Company’s investment policy, which identifies allowable investments and specifies credit quality standards. The change in cash and cash equivalents is as follows:

Operating Activities:



	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2020		June 30, 2019
Cash provided by operating activities	$	88,330	$	8,654

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, cash flows provided by operating activities totaled approximately $88.3 million, which represents a $79.7 million increase compared to cash provided by operating activities of $8.7 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. The increase in cash flows in the first half of 2020 is attributable to a smaller net loss from continuing operations in the first half of 2020 as compared to the first half of 2019, and a significant increase in cash provided by working capital. In the prior year, the Company incurred interest expense related to the 2018 Term Loan, which we paid off in the third and fourth quarter of 2019 using the proceeds from the sale of Clean Earth and our Series C Preferred Share Offering. The payoff of the 2018 Term Loan decreased our interest expense in the first six months of 2020 as compared to the first six months of 2019 by approximately $17.1 million. In the prior year, we also recognized a loss of $5.3 million related to the sale of common shares received as part of the consideration for the sale of Manitoba Harvest. Cash provided by operating activities for working capital for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $39.9 million, as compared to cash used in operating activities for working capital of $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in cash provided by working capital in the current year primarily reflects decreases in accounts receivable and inventory as our businesses attempted to conserve cash in expectation that COVID-19 would have a negative impact on cash flows.

Investing Activities:



	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2020			June 30, 2019
Cash (used in) provided by investing activities	$	(212,990	)	$	718,000

Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $213.0 million, compared to cash provided by investing activities of $718.0 million in the same period of 2019. Cash provided by investing activities in the prior year quarter primarily related to the proceeds received from the sale of Manitoba Harvest, while investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2020 reflect the acquisition of Marucci Sports in April 2020 and capital expenditures. We expect capital expenditures for the full year of 2020 to be approximately $30 million to $35 million, which reflects a reduction in our capital spending from the December 31, 2019 expectation in response to the expected effect of COVID-19 on our cash flows.

Financing Activities:



	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2020		June 30, 2019
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities	$	230,595	$	(292,750	)

Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled approximately $230.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $292.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Financing activities in both periods reflect the payment of our common and preferred share distributions, with a $4.0 million increase in the preferred share distribution as a result of the issuance of our Series C Preferred Shares in November 2019. In the prior year, we used the proceeds from our sale of Manitoba Harvest and Clean Earth to repay amounts outstanding under our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility and 2018 Term Loan, while in the current year, we completed a common share offering and the issuance of $200 million in Senior Notes, resulting in net proceeds of $285.9 million. A portion of the proceeds received from the issuance of Senior Notes and common share offering were used to pay down the amount outstanding on our 2018 Revolving Credit facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we also made a distribution to the Allocation Member of $9.1 million related to the five year Holding event for our Sterno business.

Intercompany Debt

A component of our acquisition financing strategy that we utilize in acquiring the businesses we own and manage is to provide both equity capital and debt capital, raised at the parent level through our existing credit facility. Our strategy of providing intercompany debt financing within the capital structure of the businesses that we acquire and manage allows us the ability to distribute cash to the parent company through monthly interest payments and amortization of the principal on these intercompany loans. Each loan to our businesses has a scheduled maturity and each business is entitled to repay all or a portion of the principal amount of the outstanding loans, without penalty, prior to maturity. Certain of our businesses have paid down their respective intercompany debt balances through the cash flow generated by these businesses and we have recapitalized, and expect to continue to recapitalize, these businesses in the normal course of our business. The recapitalization process involves funding the intercompany debt using either cash on hand at the parent or our applicable Credit Facility, and serves the purpose of optimizing the capital structure at our subsidiaries and providing the noncontrolling shareholders with a distribution on their ownership interest in a cash flow positive business. All of our subsidiaries were in compliance with the financial covenants included within their intercompany credit arrangements at June 30, 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, we had the following outstanding loans due from each of our businesses:

Our primary source of cash is from the receipt of interest and principal on the outstanding loans to our businesses. Accordingly, we are dependent upon the earnings of and cash flow from these businesses, which are available for (i) operating expenses; (ii) payment of principal and interest under our 2018 Credit Facility and interest on our Senior Notes; (iii) payments to CGM due pursuant to the MSA and the LLC Agreement; (iv) cash distributions to our shareholders; and (v) investments in future acquisitions. Payments made under (iii) above are required to be paid before distributions to shareholders and may be significant and exceed the funds held by us, which may require us to dispose of assets or incur debt to fund such expenditures.

Financing Arrangements

2018 Credit Facility

In April 2018, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2018 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2014 Credit Facility. The 2018 Credit Facility provides for (i) revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit (the “2018 Revolving Credit Facility”) up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million, and (ii) a $500 million term loan (the “2018 Term Loan”). The 2018 Credit Facility also permits the Company, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain additional term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million (the “Incremental Loans”), subject to certain restrictions and conditions. In July 2019, we repaid $193.8 million of the 2018 Term Loan, and in November 2019, we repaid the remaining $298.8 million due under the 2018 Term Loan.

We had $598.8 million in net availability under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2020. The outstanding borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility include $1.2 million of outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 2020.

Senior Notes

On April 18, 2018, we consummated the issuance and sale of $400 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.000% due 2026 (the "Notes" or "Senior Notes") offered pursuant to a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and to non-U.S. persons under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 18, 2018 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes bear interest at the rate of 8.000% per annum and will mature on May 1, 2026. Interest on the Notes is payable in cash on May 1st and November 1st of each year. On May 7, 2020, we consummated the issuance and sale of $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.000% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Additional Notes"). The proceeds from the Additional Notes were used to pay down the amount outstanding on the Company's 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Notes and Additional Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries.

The following table reflects required and actual financial ratios as of June 30, 2020 included as part of the affirmative covenants in our 2018 Credit Facility.

⁽¹⁾On September 16, 2014, we purchased an interest rate swap (the "Swap") with a notional amount of $220 million effective April 1, 2016 through June 6, 2021. The agreement required us to pay interest on the notional amount at the rate of 2.97% in exchange for the three-month LIBOR rate. In connection with the repayment of the 2018 Term Loan in November 2019, the Company settled the Swap with a payment of $4.9 million, the fair value of the Swap as of the date of termination.

In the above table, we provide the effective interest rate on our credit facilities, including the effect of the Swap, and excluding the interest on our Senior Notes, which is at a fixed 8.000%.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

GAAP or U.S. GAAP refer to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. From time to time we may publicly disclose certain "non-GAAP" financial measures in the course of our investor presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls or other venues. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future performance, financial position or cash flow that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude amounts, included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in our financial statements, and vice versa for measures that include amounts, or are subject to adjustments that effectively include amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure as calculated and presented.

Non-GAAP financial measures are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. These measures are not meant to be a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Flow Available for Distribution and Reinvestment ("CAD").

Reconciliation of Net income (Loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA – EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation expense and amortization expense. Amortization expenses consist of amortization of intangibles and debt charges, including debt issuance costs, discounts, etc.

Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA is calculated utilizing the same calculation as described above in arriving at EBITDA further adjusted by: (i) noncontrolling stockholder compensation, which generally consists of non-cash stock option expense; (ii) successful acquisition costs, which consist of transaction costs (legal, accounting, due diligence, etc.) incurred in connection with the successful acquisition of a business expensed during the period in compliance with ASC 805; (iii) management fees, which reflect fees due quarterly to our Manager in connection with our MSA, as well as Integration Services Fees paid by newly acquired companies; (iv) impairment charges, which reflect write downs to goodwill or other intangible assets; (v) foreign currency transaction gains or losses incurred in connection with the conversion of intercompany debt from a foreign functional currency to U.S. dollar and (vi) items of other income or expense that are material to a subsidiary and non-recurring in nature.

We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and reflect important financial measures as they exclude the effects of items which reflect the impact of long-term investment decisions, rather than the performance of near term operations. When compared to net income (loss) these financial measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capital assets used in generating revenues of our businesses or the non-cash charges associated with impairments. This presentation also allows investors to view the performance of our businesses in a manner similar to the methods used by us and the management of our businesses, provides additional insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition.

We believe that these measurements are also useful in measuring our ability to service debt and other payment obligations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not meant to be a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The following tables reconcile EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), which we consider to be the most comparable GAAP financial measure (in thousands):

Reconciliation of Cash Flow Available for Distribution and Reinvestment

The table below details cash receipts and payments that are not reflected on our income statement in order to provide an additional measure of management's estimate of cash flow available for distribution ("CAD"). CAD is a non-GAAP measure that we believe provides additional, useful information to our shareholders in order to enable them to evaluate our ability to make anticipated quarterly distributions. CAD is not meant to be a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The following table reconciles CAD to net income (loss) and cash flows provided by operating activities, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Related Party Transactions

Management Services Agreement

We entered into the MSA with CGM effective May 16, 2006. The MSA provides for, among other things, CGM to perform services for the Company in exchange for a management fee paid quarterly and equal to 0.5% of the Company's adjusted net assets, as defined in the MSA. Concurrent with the June 2019 sale of Clean Earth (refer to Note C - Discontinued Operations), CGM agreed to waive the management fee on cash balances held at the Company, commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and continuing until the quarter during which the Company next borrowed under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. In March 2020, as a proactive measure to provide the Company with additional cash liquidity in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company elected to draw down $200 million on our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Company and CGM entered into a waiver agreement whereby CGM agreed to waive the portion of the management fee attributable to the cash balances held at the Company as of March 31, 2020. In addition, as a result of an expected decline in earnings and cash flows in the second quarter of 2020, CGM agreed to waive 50% of the management fee calculated at June 30, 2020 that was paid in July 2020.

Integrations Services Agreements

5.11 - Related Party Vendor Purchases

5.11 purchases inventory from a vendor who is a related party to 5.11 through one of the executive officers of 5.11 via the executive's 40% ownership interest in the vendor. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, 5.11 purchased approximately $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in inventory from the vendor.

Profit Allocation Payments

October 2019 represented the five-year anniversary of the Company's acquisition of Sterno, which qualified as a Holding Event under the Company's LLC Agreement (the "Sterno Holding Event"). During the first quarter of 2020, the Company declared and paid a distribution of $9.1 million to the Allocation Member related to the Sterno Holding Event. The ten-year anniversary of Liberty occurred in March 2020 which represented a Holding Event. The holders of the Allocation Interests elected to defer the distribution of $3.3 million until after the end of 2020.

million related to the sale of Clean Earth. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company declared and paid a distribution to the Allocation Member of $9.1 million related to the Deferred Consideration from the Manitoba Harvest sale and the working capital settlement received from the sale of Clean Earth.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no special purpose entities or off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

Long-term contractual obligations, except for our long-term debt obligations and operating lease liabilities, are generally not recognized in our consolidated balance sheet. Non-cancelable purchase obligations are obligations we incur during the normal course of business, based on projected needs.

The table below summarizes the payment schedule of our contractual obligations at June 30, 2020:

Distributions to our shareholders are approved by our board of directors each quarter. The amount ultimately approved as future quarterly distributions may differ from the amount included in this schedule.


⁽⁴⁾	The contractual obligation table does not include approximately $1.1 million in liabilities associated with unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2020 as the timing of the recognition of this liability is not certain. The amount of the liability is not expected to significantly change in the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to adopt accounting policies and make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions and judgments and uncertainties, and potentially could result in materially different results under different conditions. These critical accounting policies and estimates are reviewed periodically by our independent auditors and the audit committee of our board of directors.

Except as set forth below, our critical accounting estimates have not changed materially from those disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 26, 2020.

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Testing

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess amount of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired. Our goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis as of March 31^st, and if current events or circumstances require, on an interim basis. Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, which are generally an operating segment or one level below the operating segment. Each of our businesses represents a reporting unit.

We use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment testing. The qualitative factors we consider include,

in part, the general macroeconomic environment, industry and market specific conditions for each reporting unit, financial performance including actual versus planned results and results of relevant prior periods, operating costs and cost impacts, as well as issues or events specific to the reporting unit. If qualitative factors are not sufficient to determine that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not to exceed its carrying value, we will perform a quantitative test of the reporting unit whereby we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using an income approach or market approach, or a weighting of the two methods. Under the income approach, we estimate the fair value of our reporting unit based on the present value of future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimate of revenue growth rates and operating margins and take into consideration industry and market conditions as well as company specific economic factors. The discount rate used is based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the business and the uncertainty associated with the reporting unit's ability to execute on the projected cash flows. Under the market approach, we estimate fair value based on market multiples of revenue and earnings derived from comparable public companies with operating characteristics that are similar to the reporting unit. When market comparables are not meaningful or available, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using only the income approach.

2020 Annual Impairment Testing - For our annual impairment testing at March 31, 2020, we performed a qualitative assessment of our reporting units. As part of our current year analysis, we have considered how we expect the COVID-19 pandemic to impact our future operating results and short and long-term financial condition. In addition to the typical qualitative factors we consider as part of the assessment, we went through a process with each of our reporting units whereby we considered various scenarios for the remainder of the year, probability weighted for what we consider the most likely outcome given existing facts and circumstances. This process included consideration of the reporting unit's industry and customers, including customer liquidity, operational capacity given local government restrictions imposed to prevent spread of the COVID-19 virus, supply chain constraints that may exist as a result of the virus and ability of the subsidiary to reduce cash outflows. The results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of our 5.11, ACI, Arnold, Liberty and Sterno reporting units exceeded their carrying value. Based on our analysis, we determined that our Ergobaby, Foam Fabricators and Velocity operating segments required quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of these reporting units significantly exceeded the carrying value based on qualitative factors alone.

We performed the quantitative tests of Ergobaby, Foam Fabricators and Velocity using an income approach to determine the fair value of the reporting units. We were unable to use a market approach due to the current market conditions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in significant volatility and lack of available market comparables. In developing the prospective financial information used in the income approach, we considered recent market conditions, taking into consideration the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic fallout. The prospective financial information considers reporting unit specific facts and circumstances and is our best estimate of operational results and cash flows for each reporting unit as of the date of our impairment testing. For Ergobaby, the discount rate used in the income approach was 15.9% and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Ergobaby reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 14.0%. For Foam Fabricators, the discount rate used in the income approach was 13.3%, and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Foam Fabricators reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 3.8%. The impairment test for Velocity used a discount rate of 12.8% in the income approach, and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Velocity reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 16.4%. The prospective financial information that is used to determine the fair values of the reporting units requires us to make assumptions regarding future operational results including revenue growth rates and gross margins. If we do not achieve the forecasted revenue growth rates and gross margins, the results of the quantitative testing could change, potentially leading to additional testing and impairment at the reporting units that were tested quantitatively.

2019 Interim Impairment Testing - As a result of operating results below forecasts in the current period as well as a re-forecast of the Velocity business in which planned earnings and revenue fell below the forecasts of prior periods, we determined that a triggering event had occurred at Velocity Outdoor in the third quarter of 2019. We performed goodwill impairment testing at Velocity as of September 30, 2019. For the quantitative impairment test at Velocity, we utilized an income approach. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimate of revenue growth rates and operating margins, and take into consideration industry and market conditions as well as company specific economic factors. We used a weighted average cost of capital of 12.2% in the income approach. The discount rate used was based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with business specific characteristics and Velocity's ability to execute on the projected cash flows. Based on the results of the impairment test, the fair value of Velocity did not exceed the carrying value, indicating that the goodwill at Velocity is impaired. The difference between the carrying value and fair value of the Velocity business was $32.9 million, which the Company recorded as impairment expense during the year ended December 31, 2019.

2019 Annual Impairment Testing - For our annual impairment testing at March 31, 2019, we determined that our Liberty operating segment required quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of Liberty significantly exceeded its carrying value based on qualitative factors alone. We concluded the goodwill impairment testing during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The results of the quantitative impairment testing of the Liberty reporting unit indicated that the fair value of the Liberty reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 135%. All of our other reporting units were tested qualitatively as of March 31, 2019, and the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that the fair value exceeded their carrying value.

For the reporting units that were tested qualitatively for the 2019 annual impairment testing, the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value exceeded their carrying value.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

We use a qualitative approach to test indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative impairment testing. Our indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trade names with a carrying value of approximately $60.0 million. The results of the qualitative analysis of our reporting unit's indefinite-lived intangible assets, which we completed as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, indicated that the fair value of the indefinite lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying value. The Ergobaby and Liberty reporting units have indefinite lived trade names that were tested in conjunction with the goodwill impairment tests at March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the trade names were not impaired.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Revenue from Contracts with Customers, or ASC 606. The revenue standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services, and excludes any sales incentives or taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to government authorities. The Company’s contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products to a customer. Determining whether the promises are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Once the performance obligations are identified, the Company determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price, if any. The Company then allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract based on a relative stand-alone selling price method. The corresponding revenues are recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied as discussed above. Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately and therefore observable.

The Company’s policy around estimating variable consideration related to sales incentives (early pay discounts, rights of return, rebates, chargebacks, and other discounts) included in certain customer contracts remains consistent with previous guidance. These incentives are recorded as a reduction in the transaction price. Under the revenue standard guidance, variable consideration is estimated and included in total consideration at contract inception based on either the expected value method or the most likely outcome method. The method was applied consistently among each type of variable consideration and the Company applies the expected value method to estimate variable consideration. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance and the Company’s best judgment at the time and as a result, reflect applicable constraints. The Company includes in the transaction price an amount of variable consideration estimated in accordance with the new guidance only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

Business Combinations

The acquisitions of our businesses are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Accounting for business combinations requires the use of estimates and assumptions in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in order to allocate the purchase price. The estimates of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable using established valuation methods, taking

into consideration information supplied by the management of the acquired entities and other relevant information. The determination of fair values requires significant judgment both by our management team and, when appropriate, valuations by independent third-party appraisers. We amortize intangible assets, such as trademarks and customer relationships, as well as property, plant and equipment, over their economic useful lives, unless those lives are indefinite. We consider factors such as historical information, our plans for the asset and similar assets held by our previously acquired portfolio companies. The impact could result in either higher or lower amortization and/or depreciation expense.

As required by Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") Rule 13a-15(b), Holdings’ Regular Trustees and the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of Holdings’ and the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)), as of June 30, 2020.
