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 as to our future performance or liquidity, such as expectations for our results of operation, net income, adjusted EBITDA, 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, including, but not limited to, those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2022, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our filings with the SEC. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond our control. 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), and the impact in the near, medium and long-term on our business, results of operations, financial position, liquidity or cash flows;

•disruption in the global supply chain, labor shortages and high labor costs;

•difficulties and delays in integrating, or business disruptions following, acquisitions or an inability to fully realize cost savings and other benefit related thereto;

•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 legal and regulatory environment in which our businesses operate;

•trends in the industries in which our businesses operate;

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

•risks associated with possible disruption in operations or the economy generally due to terrorism or natural disaster or social, civil or political unrest;

•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;

•the impact of the tax reclassifications of the Trust;

•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.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 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, 2021.

Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as the businesses acquired as of their respective acquisition date. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Discontinued operating entities are reflected as discontinued operations in the Company's results of operations and statements of financial position.

Discontinued Operations

On October 13, 2021, the LLC entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger to sell its majority owned subsidiary, Compass AC Holdings, Inc. ("ACI" or "Advanced Circuits"), which met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022. As a result, the Company reported the results of operations of ACI as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. In addition, the assets and liabilities associated with this business have been reclassified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets.

On July 29, 2022, the LLC and Advanced Circuits sent notice to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger. Refer to Note Q - "Subsequent Events" for additional information. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, changes in a plan to sell a long-lived asset group are accounted for in the period that the decision is made. Advanced Circuits will be reclassified to continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Company completed the sale of Liberty Safe Holding Corporation ("Liberty") during the third quarter of 2021. The results of operations of Liberty are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. 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 quarters produce the highest net sales during our fiscal year.

Change in Tax Status Election

Effective September 1, 2021 (the "Effective Date"), the Trust elected to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Prior to the Effective Date, the Trust was treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the Trust’s items of income, gain, loss and deduction flowed through from the Trust to the shareholders, and the Trust shareholders were subject to income taxes on their allocable share of the Trust’s income and gain. After the Effective Date, the Trust is taxed as a corporation and is subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax at the Trust level, but items of income, gain, loss and deduction will not flow through to Trust shareholders. Trust shareholders will no longer receive an IRS Schedule K-1. After the Effective Date, distributions from the Trust will be treated as dividends to the extent the Trust has accumulated or current earnings and profits. If the Trust does not have current or accumulated earnings and profits available for distribution, then the distribution will be treated as a return of capital and reduce Trust shareholders’ basis in their shares.

Prior to the Effective Date, each of the LLC’s majority owned subsidiaries were treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The election did not change the tax status of any LLC subsidiary, and each majority owned LLC subsidiary is still treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

After the Effective Date, the Trust will no longer be taxed as a pass through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Trust will no longer issue Schedule K-1’s, nor will Trust shareholders be allocated any pass through income, loss, expense, deduction or credit (including “UBIT”) from the Trust.

Note B — Acquisitions

Acquisition of Lugano Diamonds & Jewelry, Inc.

On September 3, 2021, the LLC, through its newly formed acquisition subsidiaries, Lugano Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lugano Holdings”), and Lugano Buyer, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lugano Buyer”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lugano Holdings, acquired the issued and outstanding shares of stock of Lugano Diamonds & Jewelry Inc. ("Lugano") other than the certain rollover shares (the “Lugano Transaction”). The Lugano Transaction was effectuated pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Lugano Purchase Agreement”), also dated September 3, 2021, by and among Lugano Buyer, the Sellers named therein (“Sellers”) and Mordechai Haim Ferder in his individual capacity and as initial representative of the Sellers. Lugano is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of high-end, one-of-a-kind jewelry sought after by some of the world’s most discerning clientele. Lugano conducts sales via its own retail salons as well as pop-up showrooms at Lugano-hosted or sponsored events in partnership with influential organizations in the equestrian, art and philanthropic community. Lugano is headquartered in Newport Beach, California.

The LLC made loans to, and purchased a 60% equity interest in, Lugano. The purchase price, including proceeds from noncontrolling shareholders and net of transaction costs, was $263.3 million. The selling shareholders invested in the transaction along with the LLC, representing 40% 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 LLC in the acquisition and will continue to provide integration services during the first year of the LLC's ownership of Lugano. CGM will

receive integration service fees of $2.3 million payable quarterly over a twelve month period as services are rendered which payments began in the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The LLC incurred $1.8 million of transaction costs in conjunction with the Lugano acquisition, which was included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations during the third quarter of 2021. The LLC funded the acquisition with cash on hand and a $120 million draw on its 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

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

Net purchase price	$	265,727	$	(2,420)	$	263,307

(1) The fair value of accounts receivable approximates book value acquired.

The 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. Inventory is recognized at fair value, with finished goods stated at selling price less an estimated cost to sell. 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 $86.3 million reflects the strategic fit of Lugano in the Company's branded consumer business and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

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


Intangible Assets	Fair Value		Estimated Useful Lives

Tradename	$	48,433	18 years
Customer relationships	34,021		15 years
	$	82,454

The tradename was considered the primary intangible asset and was valued at $48.4 million using a multi-period excess earnings method. The customer relationships were valued at $34.0 million using a multi period excess earnings method. The multi period excess earnings method assumes an asset has value to the extent that it enables its owners to earn a return in excess of the other assets utilized in the business.

Unaudited pro forma information

The following unaudited pro forma data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 gives effect to the acquisition of Lugano, as described above, and the dispositions of Liberty Safe and ACI, as if these transactions had been completed as of January 1, 2021.

The acquisition complements Altor's 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 included a potential earnout of $1.4 million if Polyfoam achieved certain financial metrics. The full amount of the earnout was paid during the first quarter of 2022.

Arnold

Ramco - On March 1, 2021, Arnold acquired Ramco Electric Motors, Inc. ("Ramco"), a manufacturer of stators, rotors and full electric motors, for a purchase price of approximately $34.3 million.

Note C — Discontinued Operations

Advanced Circuits Merger Agreement

On October 13, 2021, the LLC, as the representative (the “Sellers Representative”) of the holders (the “AC Sellers”) of stock and options of Compass AC Holdings, Inc. (“Advanced Circuits”), a majority owned subsidiary of the LLC,

entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “AC Agreement”) with Tempo Automation, Inc. (“AC Buyer”), Aspen Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“AC Merger Sub”) and Advanced Circuits, pursuant to which AC Buyer would acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Advanced Circuits, the parent company of the operating entity, Advanced Circuits, Inc., through a merger of AC Merger Sub with and into Advanced Circuits, with Advanced Circuits surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of AC Buyer (the “AC Merger”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the AC Sellers would receive consideration in the amount of $310 million, composed of $240 million in cash and $70 million in common stock of a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) selected by AC Buyer to acquire AC Buyer upon the closing of the transaction, excluding certain working capital and other adjustments. In addition, the AC Sellers would receive 2.4 million additional shares of SPAC common stock within five years, subject to SPAC stock price performance. The LLC owns approximately 67% of the outstanding stock of Advanced Circuits on a fully diluted basis and would receive approximately 77% of the gross consideration payable under the Agreement. This amount is in respect of the LLC’s outstanding loans to Advanced Circuits and its equity interests in Advanced Circuits. The AC Merger was conditioned on, among other things, the closing of a business combination between AC Buyer and a special purpose acquisition company (a "SPAC"). In connection with the AC Merger, AC Buyer announced its entry into a definitive merger agreement for a business combination (the “SPAC Transaction”) with a SPAC, ACE Convergence Acquisition Corp.

On July 29, 2022, due to delays in closing the SPAC Transaction, the LLC and Advanced Circuits sent notice to terminate the AC Agreement. Refer to Note Q - "Subsequent Events" for additional information. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, changes in a plan to sell a long-lived asset group are accounted for in the period that the decision is made. Advanced Circuits will be reclassified to continuing operations beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

The sale of Advanced Circuits met the criteria for the assets to be classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022, and is presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

On August 3, 2021, Liberty Buyer completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding securities of Liberty (other than the Rollover Shares) pursuant to the Liberty Purchase Agreement and Amendment (the “Liberty Transaction”). The sale price of Liberty was based on an aggregate total enterprise value of $147.5 million, subject to customary adjustments.

Note D — Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects 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.

Disaggregated Revenue - The Company disaggregates revenue by strategic business unit and by geography for each strategic business unit which are categories that depict how the nature, amount and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. This disaggregation also represents how the Company evaluates its financial performance, as well as how the Company communicates its financial performance to the investors and other users of its financial statements. Each strategic business unit represents the Company’s reportable segments and offers different products and services.

The following tables provide disaggregation of revenue by reportable segment geography for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

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

2022 Annual Impairment Testing

2021 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 Arnold 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. For the reporting units that were tested only on a qualitative basis for the 2021 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 test of Arnold was performed using an income approach to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. The discount rate used in the income approach was 13.0% and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Arnold reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 272%.

A summary of the net carrying value of goodwill at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, is as follows (in thousands):


	Six months ended June 30, 2022		Year ended December 31, 2021











Goodwill - gross carrying amount	$	846,658	$	873,150
Accumulated impairment losses	(57,745)		(57,745)
Goodwill - net carrying amount	$	788,913	$	815,405

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 2022 and 2021. 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.

2021 Credit Facility

On March 23, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2021 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2018 Credit Facility (as previously restated and amended) among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The 2021 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 2021 Credit Facility provides for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit (the “2021 Revolving Credit Facility”) up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million and also permits the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. All amounts outstanding under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility will become due on March 23, 2026, which is the maturity date of loans advanced under the 2021 Credit Facility.

The LLC may borrow, prepay and reborrow principal under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility from time to time during its term. Advances under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility can be either Eurodollar rate loans or base rate loans. Eurodollar rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum based on the London Interbank Offered Rate or a Successor Rate, as defined, (the “Eurodollar Rate”) for such interest period plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%, based on the ratio of consolidated net indebtedness to adjusted consolidated earnings before interest expense, tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses for such period (the “Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio”). Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the “prime rate”, and (iii) Eurodollar Rate plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate”), plus a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50%, based on the Company's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio.

Under the 2021 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 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

Net availability under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $597.7 million at June 30, 2022. Letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2022 totaled approximately $2.3 million. At June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants as defined in the 2021 Credit Facility.

2018 Credit Facility

On April 18, 2018, the LLC entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2018 Credit Facility"). The 2018 Credit Facility provided 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 Company repaid the outstanding amounts under the 2018 Term Loan in 2019, and used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes to repay the amount outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility in March 2021.

Senior Notes

2032 Senior Notes

On November 17, 2021, we consummated the issuance and sale of $300 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.000% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes” of "2032 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 2032 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 17, 2021 (the “2032 Notes Indenture”), between the LLC and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The 2032 Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.000% per annum and will mature on January 15, 2032. Interest on the 2032 Notes is payable in cash on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2022.

The proceeds from the sale of the 2032 Notes was used to repay a portion of our debt under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

2029 Senior Notes

On March 23, 2021, we consummated the issuance and sale of $1,000 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.250% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" or "2029 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 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 23, 2021 (the “2029 Notes Indenture”), between the LLC and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The 2029 Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.250% per annum and will mature on April 15, 2029. Interest on the 2029 Notes is payable in cash on April 15th and October 15th of each year. The first interest payment date on the 2029 Senior Notes will be October 15, 2021. The 2029 Notes are general unsecured obligations of the LLC and are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries.

The proceeds from the sale of the 2029 Notes was used to repay debt outstanding under the 2018 Credit Facility in connection with entering into the 2021 Credit Facility, as described above, and to redeem our 8.000% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Senior Notes”).

2026 Senior Notes

Our 2026 Senior Notes bore interest at 8.000% per annum and were scheduled to mature on May 1, 2026. On March 2, 2021, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 18, 2018 between the LLC and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee ("Trustee"), the Trustee delivered redemption notices, on behalf of the LLC, to holders of the LLC’s 2026 Senior Notes to redeem the 2026 Senior Notes on April 1, 2021. The principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes redeemed was $600 million, which represented all of the outstanding principal of the 2026 Senior Notes. The 2026 Senior Notes were redeemed at 100% of their principal, plus an applicable premium, and accrued and unpaid interest as of the redemption date. On March 23, 2021, the proceeds required for the redemption of the 2026 Senior Notes, the applicable premium and accrued interest totaling $647.7 million was irrevocably deposited with the Trustee and held by the Trustee until the date of redemption, April 1, 2021. The redemption of the 2026 Senior Notes resulted in a Loss on Debt Extinguishment of approximately $33.3 million, which is comprised of the premium paid for early redemption of the 2026 Senior Notes, and the expensing of the deferred financing costs and bond premium associated with the 2026 Senior Notes.

Debt Issuance Costs

In connection with the 2032 Senior Notes offering in November 2021, the Company recorded $4.3 million in deferred financing costs. In addition, the Company recorded $12.0 million in deferred financing costs related to the 2029 Senior Notes offering in March 2021.

In connection with entering into the 2021 Credit Facility, the Company recorded $5.4 million in deferred financing costs.

Since the Company can borrow, repay and reborrow principal under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, the debt issuance costs associated with the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility have been classified as other non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

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, 2022 and 2021 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, 2022 and 2021 attributable to the common shares of Holdings is calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

(1) This distribution was declared on July 1, 2022.

(2) On August 3, 2021, in order to offset a portion of the tax liability to the shareholders as a result of the election to cause the Trust to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company's Board of Directors declared a special cash distribution on the Trust’s common shares. A distribution of $57.1 million was made on August 31, 2021 to Trust common shareholders. Beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.25 per share, which was reduced from $0.36 per share in prior periods to reflect the effect of the Trust being taxed as a corporation.

Note K — Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interest represents the portion of the Company’s majority owned subsidiary’s net income (loss) and equity that is owned by noncontrolling shareholders. The following tables reflect the LLC’s ownership percentage of its majority owned operating segments and related noncontrolling interest balances as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:


	% Ownership (1) June 30, 2022		% Ownership (1) December 31, 2021

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, 2021.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

There were no assets or liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2022 or the year ended December 31, 2021.

Note M — Income taxes

Effective September 1, 2021, the LLC’s parent (i.e., the Trust) elected to be treated as a corporation for U.S federal income tax purposes. Prior to September 1, 2021, the Company’s items of income, gain, loss and deduction flowed through to owners of the Trust without being subject to income taxes at the Trust level. Consequently, the Company’s earnings did not reflect a provision for income taxes except those for foreign, state, city and local income taxes incurred at the entity level. From and after September 1, 2021, the Trust will be subject to entity-level U.S. federal, state, and local corporate income taxes on the Company’s earnings that flow through to the Trust. However, the Trust itself will no longer be taxed as a flow through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Trust shareholders will no longer receive Schedule K-1’s, nor will Trust shareholders be allocated any pass through income, loss, deduction, expense, or credit (including “UBIT”) from the Trust.

The Company estimates its annual effective tax rate each fiscal quarter and applies that estimated 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 for each interim period requires certain assumptions, estimates, and significant judgment, including with respect to the projected operating income for the year, projections of income earned and taxes incurred in various jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained, as our tax structure changes or as the tax laws change. 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, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2022		2021
United States Federal Statutory Rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes (net of Federal benefits)	5.2		26.4
Foreign income taxes	3.0		17.7
Expenses of Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC representing a pass through to shareholders (1)	—		237.3
Impact of subsidiary employee stock options	0.9		1.8
Credit utilization	(4.4)		(33.3)
Non-recognition of NOL carryforwards at subsidiaries	(0.1)		5.8
Effect of Tax Act	—		(3.8)

Other	0.8		(6.6)
Effective income tax rate	26.4	%	266.3	%

(1) The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included a loss at the Trust, which was taxed as a partnership through August 31, 2021. Beginning September 1, 2021, the Trust is taxed as a corporation.

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 $0.5 million is recognized in the consolidated balance sheet as a component of other non-current liabilities at June 30, 2022. Net periodic benefit cost consists of the following for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Service cost	$	107	$	105	$	217	$	214
Interest cost	10		11		21		17
Expected return on plan assets	(18)		(18)		(37)		(37)
Amortization of unrecognized loss	(7)		(7)		(14)		2
Effect of curtailment	(28)		31		(31)		88
Net periodic benefit cost	$	64	$	122	$	156	$	284

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, per the terms of the pension agreement, Arnold contributed $0.2 million to the plan. For the remainder of 2022, the expected contribution to the plan will be approximately $0.1 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, 2022 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 was not a material component of our total lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company recognized $10.6 million and $21.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and $8.6 million and $17.2 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, in expense related to operating leases in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The maturities of lease liabilities at June 30, 2022 are as follows (in thousands):


2022 (excluding six months ended June 30, 2022)	$	15,243
2023	31,316
2024	26,536
2025	22,023
2026	18,415
Thereafter	37,793
Total undiscounted lease payments	$	151,326
Less: Interest	9,010
Present value of lease liabilities	$	142,316

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, lease accounting guidance 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:


Lease Term and Discount Rate	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Weighted-average remaining lease term (years)	5.98		5.62
Weighted-average discount rate	7.18	%	7.33	%

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):


	Line Item in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021

Operating lease right-of-use assets	Other non-current assets	$	124,692	$	116,992
Current portion, operating lease liabilities	Other current liabilities	$	25,713	$	25,663
Operating lease liabilities	Other non-current liabilities	$	116,603	$	103,800

Note P — Related Party Transactions

Management Services Agreement

The LLC entered into the Management Services Agreement ("MSA") with CGM effective May 16, 2006. The MSA provides for, among other things, CGM to perform services for the LLC 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. At June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, CGM entered into a waiver to exclude cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

During 2021, CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA for a period through December 31, 2021 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to BOA, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee paid during 2021 than would have normally been due. In the first quarter of 2021, the LLC and CGM entered into a waiver agreement whereby CGM agreed to waive the portion of the management fee related to the amount of the proceeds deposited with the Trustee that was in excess of the amount payable related to the 2026 Senior Notes at March 31, 2021. Additionally, CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA at December 31, 2021 to exclude the cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

Integration Services Agreements

Lugano, which was acquired in September 2021, entered into an Integration Services Agreement ("ISA") with CGM whereby Lugano will pay CGM an integration services fee of $2.3 million quarterly over a twelve month period as services are rendered, beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2021. BOA, which was acquired in October 2020, entered into an ISA with CGM whereby BOA paid CGM an integration service fee of $4.4 million quarterly over a twelve month period as services were rendered, beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Marucci Sports, which was acquired in April 2020, entered into an ISA with CGM. Marucci paid CGM an integration service fee of $2.0 million quarterly over a twelve month period as services were rendered, beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2020. 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. Under the ISAs, CGM provides 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.

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

5.11

Recapitalization - In August 2021, the Company completed a recapitalization of 5.11 whereby the LLC entered into an amendment to the intercompany loan agreement with 5.11 (the "5.11 Loan Agreement"). The 5.11 Loan Agreement was amended to provide for additional term loan borrowings of $55.0 million to fund a distribution to shareholders. The LLC owned 97.7% of the outstanding shares of 5.11 on the date of the distribution and received $53.7 million. The remaining amount of the distribution was paid to minority shareholders.

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. 5.11 purchased approximately $0.5 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively in inventory from the vendor.

BOA

Repurchase of Noncontrolling Interest - In September 2021, BOA repurchased shares of its issued and outstanding common shares from its largest minority shareholder for a total payment of $48.0 million, which BOA financed by borrowing under their intercompany credit facility with the LLC (the "BOA Credit Agreement"). The BOA Credit Agreement was amended to (i) provide for additional term loan borrowings of $38.0 million, and (ii) consent to the repurchase of the shares from the minority shareholder. The transaction was accounted for in accordance with ASC 810 - Consolidation, whereby the carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest was adjusted to reflect the change in the ownership interest in BOA that occurred as a result of the share repurchase. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid of $48.0 million and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest was adjusted of $39.4 million was recognized in equity attributable to the LLC.

Related Party Vendor Purchases - A contract manufacturer used by BOA as the primary supplier of molded injection parts is a noncontrolling shareholder of BOA. BOA had approximately $15.9 million and $31.1 million in purchases from this supplier during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively and $11.8 million and $21.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

Ergobaby

Recapitalization - In February 2022, the Company completed a recapitalization of Ergobaby whereby the LLC entered into an amendment to the intercompany loan agreement with Ergobaby (the "Ergo Loan Agreement"). The Ergo Loan Agreement was amended to provide for additional loan borrowings of $61.5 million to fund a distribution to shareholders. The LLC owned 81.6% of the outstanding shares of Ergobaby on the date of the distribution and received $50.2 million. The remaining amount of the distribution was paid to minority shareholders.

Note Q - Subsequent Events

Acquisition of PrimaLoft

On July 12, 2022, the LLC, through its newly formed acquisition subsidiary, Relentless Intermediate, Inc. ("PrimaLoft Buyer"), acquired PrimaLoft Technologies Holdings, Inc. (“PrimaLoft”) pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “ PrimaLoft Purchase Agreement”), dated June 4, 2022, by and between PrimaLoft Buyer and VP PrimaLoft Holdings, LLC. The acquisition of PrimaLoft for a total purchase price, including proceeds from noncontrolling shareholders, of approximately $530 million, before working capital and other customary adjustments. The Company funded the acquisition through a draw on its revolving credit facility and the proceeds from its new $400 million term loan facility. PrimaLoft management invested in the Transaction along with the Company, representing 9.2% of the equity interest in PrimaLoft. Concurrent with the Closing, the Company provided a credit facility to PrimaLoft pursuant to which a secured revolving loan commitment and secured term loan were made available to PrimaLoft (the "PrimaLoft Credit Agreement"). The initial revolving loan and term loan commitments under these facilities on the closing date were $178 million.

CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA with the Company as of the closing date for the period through September 30, 2023 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to PrimaLoft, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA.

2022 Credit Facility

On July 12, 2022, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to amend and restate the 2021 Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility provides for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit up ("the 2022 Revolving Line of Credit") up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million ("the 2022 Revolving Loan Commitment") and a $400 million term loan (the “ 2022 Term Loan”). The 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly payments ranging from $2.5 million to $7.5 million, commencing September 30, 2022, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on July 12, 2027, which is the 2022 Term Loan’s maturity date. All amounts outstanding under the 2022 Revolving Line of Credit will become due on July 12, 2027, which is the termination date of the 2022 Revolving Loan Commitment. The 2022 Credit Facility also permits the LLC, 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, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. On the closing date for the 2022 Credit Facility, the 2022 Term Loan was advanced in full and the initial borrowings outstanding under the 2022 Revolving

Line of Credit were $115 million. We used the initial proceeds from the 2022 Credit Facility to pay all amounts outstanding under the 2021 Credit Facility, pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the 2022 Credit Facility and fund the acquisition of PrimaLoft.

Advanced Circuits Merger Agreement

On October 13, 2021, the LLC, as the Sellers Representative of the holders of stock and options of Advanced Circuits, a majority owned subsidiary of the LLC, entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "AC Agreement") with Tempo Automation, Inc. (“AC Buyer”), Aspen Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“AC Merger Sub”) and Advanced Circuits, pursuant to which AC Buyer would acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Advanced Circuits, the parent company of the operating entity, Advanced Circuits, Inc., through a merger of AC Merger Sub with and into Advanced Circuits, with Advanced Circuits surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of AC Buyer (the “AC Merger”). The AC Merger was conditioned on, among other things, the closing of a business combination between AC Buyer and a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (a “SPAC”). In connection with the AC Merger, AC Buyer announced its entry into a definitive merger agreement for a business combination (the “SPAC Transaction”) with a SPAC, ACE Convergence Acquisition Corp. (“ACE”). The AC Agreement also provided that the AC Agreement could be terminated in the event closing of the AC Merger did not occur prior to January 27, 2022 (the "End Date").

A description of the Merger Agreement was included in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on October 14, 2021. Due to a delay in closing the SPAC Transaction, the AC Merger did not close on or before the End Date. Because of the delay in closing the SPAC Transaction, on July 29, 2022, the LLC and Advanced Circuits provided the notice of termination of the AC Agreement to AC Buyer. No termination penalties were incurred by either party in connection with the termination of the AC Agreement. The termination of the AC Agreement occurred in the third quarter of 2022 and, in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, Advanced Circuits will be reclassified to continuing operations beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Significant Trends Impacting Our Businesses

COVID-19 Update

The continued spread of COVID-19 and new variants of the virus around the world continue to present significant risks to our business. The economic and health conditions in the United States and across most of the globe have continued to change since the beginning of the pandemic and the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business is dependent on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic, the emergence of variants of the virus and the related length of its impact on the global economy, which are highly uncertain and difficult to accurately predict. The public health situation, global response measures and corresponding impacts on various markets remain fluid and uncertain. 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. The Company anticipates that COVID-19 will continue to impact the results of operations, including a potential decrease in gross margins, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA at certain of our businesses during 2022.

The following are two significant trends resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic that we anticipate may negatively impact our operating performance in 2022:

Global Supply Chain Trends

The disruption in the global supply chain due to transportation delays and U.S. port congestion have continued in the first half of 2022 and are expected to continue to place constraints on several of our businesses. Surges in demand, shifts in shopping patterns related to COVID-19, and the resurgence of COVID-19 variants in manufacturing hubs, as well as other factors, have continued to strain the global supply chain network, which has resulted in carrier-imposed capacity restrictions, carrier delays, and longer lead times. U.S. ports that have been unable to keep pace with unprecedented inbound container volume, which has led to shipping and unloading backlogs, and ports in Asia have been subject to intermittent closures due to the impact of COVID-19 variants. Due to the backlog at the ports and other supply chain disruptions, most of our businesses are experiencing shortages in materials and products, and significant increases in freight costs. Several of our companies are relying on expensive air freight to import goods to meet customer demand. We are also seeing the availability of raw materials, components and finished goods impacted by the supply chain challenges which has led to shortages of certain materials and led to pressure on revenue growth. In addition, the closure of certain Asian manufacturing facilities as a result of local government quarantine efforts has impacted our ability to import products timely. Further, in the U.S., the surge in demand along with COVID-19 related labor shortages and rising hourly labor wages, are creating labor shortages and higher labor costs. We expect these cost trends to continue through 2022.

Inflationary Cost Environment

We continue to experienced inflationary cost increases in our materials, labor and transportation costs. We expect that these inflationary cost increases will continue but will be partially mitigated by pricing actions implemented in the prior year, as well as those that we have implemented in 2022. In 2022, we expect changing market conditions and continued inflationary pressures to impact consumer spending. With price pressures unlikely to abate and expected changes in monetary policies, consumer spending may be negatively impacted in 2022.

Business Outlook

The Company anticipates that the areas of focus for 2022, which are generally applicable to each of our businesses, include:

•Pursuing sales growth through a combination of new product development, increasing distribution, new customer acquisitions and international expansion;

•Raising prices on our goods due to rising input costs to preserve operating margins,

•Taking market share, where possible, in each of our niche market leading companies, generally at the expense of less well capitalized competitors;

•Striving for excellence in supply chain management, manufacturing and technological capabilities;

•Continuing to pursue expense reduction and cost savings in lower margin business lines or in response to lower production volume;

•Continuing to pursue growth through disciplined, strategic acquisitions and rigorous integration processes; and

•Working to drive free cash flow through increased net income and effective working capital management, enabling continued investment in our businesses.

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.

See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further discussion of our non-GAAP financial measures and related reconciliations.

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, 2022 and June 30, 2021, 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.

In the following results of operations, we provide (i) our actual Consolidated Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, which includes the historical results of operations of each of our businesses (operating segments) from the date of acquisition in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP), and (ii) comparative historical components of the results of operations for each of our businesses on a stand-alone basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, where all periods presented include relevant pro forma adjustments for pre-acquisition periods and explanations where applicable. For the acquisition of Lugano in September 2021, the pro forma results of operations for the Lugano business segment have been prepared as if we purchased that business on January 1, 2021. We believe this is the most meaningful comparison for the operating results of acquired business segments. 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, 2022 compared to three months ended June 30, 2021

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $84.1 million, or 19.5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2021. Our Lugano business, which we acquired in September 2021, contributed $39.1 million in net revenue in the second quarter of 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021, we also saw significant increases in net sales at 5.11 ($10.0 million increase), BOA ($15.3 million increase), Marucci ($3.0 million increase), Arnold ($6.2 million increase), and Altor Solutions ($25.5 million increase), partially offset by a decrease in net revenue at Velocity Outdoor ($9.5 million decrease) and Sterno ($5.1 million decrease). Add-on acquisitions at Marucci (Lizard Skins in October 2021) and Altor (Plymouth Foam in October 2021) contributed to the growth in revenue at these businesses in the second quarter of 2022. During the comparable period in 2021, we saw notable increases in revenue at several of our branded consumer businesses as a result of an increased consumer focus on outdoor related brands during the COVID-19 pandemic. Historically, the third and fourth quarters have been seasonably stronger than the first half of the year in earnings for certain of our businesses. However, in the first half of 2021 several of our businesses saw significant revenue growth and increased consumer demand. On a consolidated level, our businesses were able to increase revenue in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the prior year as a result of acquisitions and continued strong performance. We expect our full year 2022 results of operations will be negatively impacted as inflationary pressures will reduce demand and discretionary consumer spending in both our branded consumer and niche industrial businesses. The world economy continues to face supply chain constraints which we believe will lead to product fulfillment delays and increased inventory acquisition costs. We expect revenue to be modestly impacted by product and material availability through the remainder of 2022. 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 subsidiary businesses we own and manage. We may generate interest income on the investment of available funds, but we expect such earnings to be minimal. Our investment in our subsidiary businesses is typically in the form of loans from the LLC to such businesses, as well as equity interests in those companies. Cash flows coming to the Trust and the LLC 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 $45.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the corresponding period in 2021. Our Lugano business contributed $19.4 million of the increase in cost of revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. We also saw notable increases in cost of revenues at 5.11 ($3.6 million increase), BOA ($6.7 million increase), Marucci ($2.8 million increase), Altor ($20.9 million increase), and Arnold ($2.5 million increase) that correspond to the revenue increases noted above. We also saw decreases in cost of revenues at Velocity ($4.5 million decrease) and Sterno ($6.0 million decrease) that corresponded to the decrease in revenue noted above. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 41.1% in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 40.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the quarter ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to the acquisition of Lugano in September 2021 and the implementation of price increases at most of our businesses in response to rising costs. Most of our businesses continue to experience increased material, labor and transportation costs. The gross margins at both our branded consumer businesses and our niche industrial businesses have been impacted by global supply chain constraints and inflation that is leading to pressure on revenue and costs. 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 $18.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the corresponding period in 2021. A portion of the increase in the second quarter of 2022 is due to our Lugano acquisition in September 2021 ($8.6 million of the increase). We also saw increases in selling, general and administrative expenses at Marucci and Altor related to the add-on acquisitions that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2021, as well as increased investment in marketing and headcount at several of our businesses. 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 $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2021. In the prior year, we incurred additional professional fees at the corporate level related to the Trust's election to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

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 three months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred approximately $14.9 million in management fees as compared to $11.1 million in fees in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in Management fees is primarily attributable to our acquisition of Lugano in September 2021, offset by our sale of Liberty in August 2021. CGM had entered into a waiver of the MSA for a period through December 31, 2021 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to BOA, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee paid in the second quarter of 2021 than would have normally been due. Additionally, CGM has entered into a waiver of the MSA at June 30, 2022 to exclude the cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased $2.1 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the amortization expense associated with the intangibles that were recognized in conjunction with the purchase price allocation for Lugano, which was acquired in September 2021.

Interest expense

We recorded interest expense totaling $17.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $14.9 million for the comparable period in 2021, an increase of $2.6 million. The increase in interest expense in the current year reflects the higher amount outstanding on our senior notes during the current year after we redeemed $600.0 million of 8.000% 2026 Senior Notes and issued $1000.0 million of 5.250% 2029 Senior Notes in March of 2021, and issued an additional $300.0 million of 5.000% 2032 Senior Notes in November 2021.

Other income (expense)

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we recorded $0.7 million in other income as compared to $0.6 million in other expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2021, a decrease in expense of $1.4 million. Other income (expense) typically reflects the movement in foreign currency at our businesses with international operations, gains or (losses) realized on the sale of property, plant and equipment, and expenses incurred or income earned that are not considered a part of our operations.

Income taxes

We had an income tax provision of $6.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to an income tax provision of $8.3 million during the same period in 2021, a decrease of $2.2 million. Our income before income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $45.9 million as compared to the prior year quarter. In the second quarter of 2021 we had a loss from operations before income taxes of $13.3 million, driven by a $33.3 loss on debt extinguishment that we recognized associated with the repayment of our $600 million 2026 Senior Notes. The loss on debt extinguishment was incurred at the Trust, which at the time was taxed as a partnership for income tax purposes and did not impact the income tax provision in the prior year. In the current quarter, our provision was driven by the acquisitions of Lugano in September 2021, and an increase in earnings at several of our businesses during the quarter, particularly 5.11 and BOA 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 was previously taxed as a partnership. On September 1, 2021, the Trust elected to “check-the-box” to have the Trust treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the second quarter of 2022, the loss incurred at the Trust related to the corporate overhead and management fees resulted in the recognition of a tax benefit that offset the tax expense incurred at our subsidiaries.

Six Months ended June 30, 2022 compared to six months ended June 30, 2021

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $186.0 million, or 22.1%, compared to the corresponding period in 2021. Our Lugano business, which we acquired in September 2021, contributed $86.1 million in net revenue in the first half of 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, we also saw significant increases in net sales at 5.11 ($14.2 million increase), BOA ($35.7 million), Marucci ($18.4 million increase), Arnold ($11.9 million increase), and Altor Solutions ($51.5 million increase), partially offset by a decrease in net revenue at Velocity Outdoor ($23.7 million decrease). Add-on acquisitions at Marucci (Lizard Skins in October 2021), Altor (Plymouth Foam in October 2021) and Arnold (Ramco Motors in March 2021) contributed to the growth in revenue at these businesses in the first half of 2022. During the comparable period in 2021, we saw notable increases in revenue at several of our branded consumer businesses as a result of an increased consumer focus on outdoor related brands during the pandemic. Historically, the third and fourth quarters have been seasonably stronger than the first half of the year in earnings for certain of our businesses. However, in the first quarter of 2021 several of our businesses saw significant revenue growth due to unfulfilled orders from the fourth quarter of 2020 being fulfilled in the first quarter of 2021. Further, we believe domestic government stimulus boosted spending in the first half of 2021 that did not repeat in 2022. Notwithstanding this significant demand increase we experienced in the first half of 2021, on a consolidated level our businesses were able to increase revenue in the first half of 2022 as compared to the prior year as a result of acquisitions and continued strong performance. We expect our 2022 results of operations will be negatively impacted as inflationary pressures will impact demand and discretionary consumer spending for both our branded consumer and niche industrial businesses, and as the world economy continues to face supply chain constraints which we believe will lead to product fulfillment delays and resulting increased inventory acquisition costs. 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 increased approximately $115.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the corresponding period in 2021. Our Lugano business contributed $43.0 million of the increase in cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022. We also saw notable increases in cost of revenues at 5.11 ($5.6 million increase), Marucci ($16.6 million increase), Altor ($42.9 million increase), and Arnold ($7.6 million increase) that correspond to the revenue increases noted above. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 40.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 40.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily related to increased material, labor and transportation costs. The gross margins at both our branded consumer businesses and our niche industrial businesses have been impacted by global supply chain constraints and inflation that is leading to pressure on revenue and costs. Our businesses have implemented price increases in order to offset these rising costs which should positively impact gross margins in 2022. 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 $34.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the corresponding period in 2021. A portion of the increase in the first half of 2022 is due to our Lugano acquisition in the current year ($17.1 million of the increase). We also saw increases in selling, general and administrative expenses at Marucci and Altor related to the add-on acquisitions that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2021, as well as increased investment in marketing and headcount at several of our businesses. 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 $7.0 million in the first half of 2022 and $7.9 million in the first half of 2021. In the prior year, we incurred additional expense from professional fees at the corporate level related to the Trust's election to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

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, 2022, we incurred approximately $29.3 million in management fees as compared to $21.9 million in fees in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in Management fees is primarily attributable to our acquisition of Lugano in September 2021, and several add-on acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021, offset by our sale of Liberty in August 2021. CGM had entered into a waiver of the MSA for a period through December 31, 2021 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to BOA, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee paid in the first half of 2021 than would have normally been due. In the first quarter of 2021, the LLC and CGM entered into a waiver agreement whereby CGM agreed to waive the portion of the management fee related to the amount of the cash proceeds deposited with the Trustee that was in excess of the amount payable related to the 2026 Notes at March 31, 2021. Additionally, CGM had entered into a waiver of the MSA at March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 to exclude the cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $4.6 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the amortization expense associated with the intangibles that were recognized in conjunction with the purchase price allocation for Lugano, which was acquired in September 2021.

Interest expense

We recorded interest expense totaling $34.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $28.8 million for the comparable period in 2021, an increase of $6.2 million. The increase in interest expense in the current year reflects the higher amount outstanding on our senior notes during the current year after we redeemed $600.0 million of 8.000% 2026 Senior Notes and issued $1000.0 million of 5.250% 2029 Senior Notes in March of 2021, and issued an additional $300.0 million of 5.000% 2032 Senior Notes in November 2021.

Other income (expense)

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded $2.8 million in other income as compared to $2.9 million in other expense in the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease in expense of $5.6 million. Other income (expense) typically reflects the movement in foreign currency at our businesses with international operations, gains or (losses) realized on the sale of property, plant and equipment, and expenses incurred or income earned that are not considered a part of our operations.

Income taxes

We had an income tax provision of $16.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to an income tax provision of $13.7 million during the same period in 2021. Our income before income taxes in the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $55.9 million as compared to the income before income taxes in the six months ended June 30, 2021. In the prior year comparable period, we had income from operations before income taxes of $5.1 million, which included a $33.3 loss on debt extinguishment that we recognized associated with the repayment of our $600 million 2026 Senior Notes. The loss on debt extinguishment was incurred at the Trust, which at the time was taxed as a partnership for income tax purposes and did not impact the income tax provision in the prior year. In the current period, our provision was driven by the acquisitions of Lugano in September 2021, and an increase in earnings at several of our businesses during the quarter, particularly 5.11 and BOA 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 was previously taxed as a partnership. On September 1, 2021, the Trust elected to “check-the-box” to have the Trust treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, the loss incurred at the Trust related to the corporate overhead and management fees resulted in the recognition of a tax benefit that offset the tax expense incurred at our subsidiaries.

This increase is due in part to a $4.3 million, or 10.6%, increase in domestic wholesale sales following the fulfillment of backorders, as well as an increase of $4.9 million, or 26.6% in other international channel sales due to inventory availability to meet strong demand. Net sales were also positively impacted by an increase of $3.4 million in direct-to-consumer sales growth, up 7% from the prior year comparable period.

Retail sales grew largely due to positive growth in same-store sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period last year as well as store count growth.

Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 decreased $5.0 million as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 27.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 31.5% in the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to product mix as Velocity sold more legacy products with lower margins versus new models at higher margins.

The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior period is driven by the decrease in net sales as spending on selling, general and administrative expense was down year-over-year driven by volume related expenses. We continue to invest in consumer marketing.

Net sales

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 were $66.1 million, an increase of $25.5 million, or 62.8%, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The increase in net sales during the quarter was due to the acquisition of Plymouth Foam in October 2021, organic growth in Altor's appliance and cold chain customer sectors, and contractual and general increases in selling prices during the latter half of 2021 and the first half of 2022. Plymouth Foam sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 were $16.9 million.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 20.9% and 22.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the quarter ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to increases in the price of Altor's primary raw material, expanded polystyrene ("EPS"), and increased operating costs, particularly labor.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $5.3 million as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.8 million. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2022 was due to the acquisition of Plymouth Foam.

Segment operating income

Segment operating income was $5.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $2.4 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, based on the factors noted above.

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $130.0 million, an increase of $51.5 million, or 65.7%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the acquisition of Plymouth Foam in October 2021, organic growth in Altor's appliance and cold chain customer sectors, and contractual and general increases in selling prices during the latter half of 2021 and the first half of 2022. Plymouth Foam sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $32.0 million.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 21.5% and 24.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to increases in the price of Altor's primary raw material, expanded polystyrene ("EPS"), and increased operating costs, particularly labor. We expect gross profit as a percentage of net sales to improve in the near to intermediate term as we have contractual price increases planned and we expect raw material input costs to stabilize.

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were approximately $84.2 million, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 5.7%, compared to the same period in 2021. The net sales variance reflects lower sales at Rimports due to changes in consumer discretionary buying behaviors as a result of inflationary pressures, partially offset by strong sales at Sterno with increased spending in travel, entertainment, weddings and conventions.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased from 21.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to 23.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in gross profit percentage in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2021 was primarily attributable to the impact of selective price increases, higher margin sales mix, plus the effect of absorbing fixed overhead across higher sales volume at Sterno Products.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $7.9 million as compared to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $0.3 million reflecting lower salaries and bonus in the current quarter. Selling, general and administrative expense represented 9.4% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 9.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Segment operating income

Segment operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $8.0 million, an increase of $1.4 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 based on the factors noted above.

Six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to six months ended June 30, 2021

Net sales

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were approximately $161.1 million, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 3.3%, compared to the same period in 2021. The net sales variance reflects softer sales at Rimports due to change in discretionary consumer buying behaviors due to inflation pressures, partially offset by strong sales at Sterno with increased business travel and conventions.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased from 21.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 21.5% for the same period ended June 30, 2022. The increase in gross profit percentage in the first half of 2022 as compared to the first half of 2021 was primarily attributable to the impact of selective price increases, higher margin sales mix, plus the effect of absorbing fixed overhead across higher sales volume at Sterno Product.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $15.1 million as compared to $15.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $0.7 million reflecting lower salaries and bonus in the current period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate cash primarily from the operations of our subsidiaries, and we have the ability to borrow under our 2021 Credit Facility (as amended and restated in July 2022, the 2022 Credit Facility) to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. In 2021, we filed a prospectus supplement pursuant to which we may, but we have no obligation to, issue and sell up to $500 million of the common shares of the Trust in amounts and at times to be determined by us. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, market conditions, the trading price of Trust common shares and determinations by us regarding appropriate sources of funding. Our liquidity requirements primarily relate to our debt service requirements, payments of our common and preferred share distributions, management fees paid to our Manager, working capital needs and purchase commitments at our subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2022, we had $1,000.0 million of indebtedness associated with our 5.250% 2029 Senior Notes, and $300 million of indebtedness associated with our 5.000% 2032 Senior Notes. There are no required quarterly principal payments on our 2029 Senior Notes or 2032 Senior Notes. Long-term debt liquidity requirements consist of the payment in full of our Senior Notes upon their respective maturity dates.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on July 12, 2022, we entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2022 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2021 Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility provides for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million (the "2022 Revolving Credit Facility") and also permits the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. All amounts outstanding under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility will become due on July 12, 2027, which is the maturity date of loans advanced under the Revolving Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility also provides for a $400 million term loan (the “2022 Term Loan”). The 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly payments ranging from $2.5 million to $7.5 million, commencing September 30, 2022, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on July 12, 2027, which is the 2022 Term Loan’s maturity date. The 2022 Term Loan was advanced in full at closing and we used the Term Loan proceeds and a draw on the 2022 Credit Facility to complete our acquisition of PrimaLoft for a purchase price of approximately $530 million.

At June 30, 2022, we had approximately $102.7 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand, a decrease of $54.4 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. 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, 2022		June 30, 2021
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	(35,337)	$	109,434

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash flows used in operating activities totaled approximately $35.3 million, which represents a $144.8 million decrease compared to cash provided by operating activities of $109.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. Cash used in operating activities for working capital for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $159.2 million, as compared to cash used in operating activities for working capital of $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. We typically have a higher usage of cash for working capital in the first half of the year as most of our companies will build up inventories after the fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022, several of our businesses increased inventory levels to combat supply chain issues given longer lead times. The increase in cash used in operating activities for working capital in 2022 also reflects the acquisition of Lugano in the third quarter of the prior year. Lugano has used significant cash to build inventory to support its sales growth.

Investing Activities:


	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Cash used in investing activities	$	(22,238)	$	(52,696)

Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $22.2 million, compared to cash used in investing activities of $52.7 million in the same period of 2021. In 2022, we received approximately $6.9 million in proceeds related to the sale of our Clean Earth business in 2019 and Liberty in 2021, and also completed a small add-on acquisition at our Altor subsidiary. In the prior year, our investing activities reflect an add-on acquisition at our Arnold subsidiary for $34.3 million. Capital expenditures spend increased $8.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, with $24.4 million in capital expenditures in 2022 and $16.1 million in capital expenditures in 2021. We expect capital expenditures for the full year of 2022 to be approximately $55 million to $65 million, with a majority of this spend falling in the latter half of the year.

Financing Activities:


	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Cash provided by (used in) used in financing activities	$	3,597	$	(17,323)

Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled approximately $3.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $17.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the first quarter of 2021, we completed an offering of $1,000.0 million of our 2029 Senior Notes, and used the proceeds to pay down our 2018 Revolving Credit Facility and pay off the existing 2026 Senior Notes. Financing activities in both periods reflect the payment of our common and preferred share distributions. In September 2021, we filed a prospectus supplement and entered into a Sales Agreement for an At The Market program pursuant to which we may sell common shares of the Trust. We received $62.2 million in net cash proceeds from the sale of Trust common shares under this program in the current year. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we made a distribution to the Allocation Member of $5.2 million related to the five-year holding event of our Liberty and Ergobaby 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 our subsidiaries 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 subsidiary businesses has a scheduled maturity and each subsidiary 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 subsidiaries have paid down their respective intercompany debt balances through the cash flow generated by these subsidiaries and we have recapitalized, and expect to continue to recapitalize, these subsidiaries 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.

In February 2022, we completed a recapitalization at Ergobaby whereby the LLC entered into an amendment to the intercompany loan agreement with Ergobaby (the "Ergobaby Loan Agreement"). The Ergobaby Loan Agreement was amended to provide for additional term loan borrowings of $61.5 million to fund a distribution to shareholders. The LLC owned 81.6% of the outstanding shares of Ergobaby on the date of the distribution and received $50.2 million. The remaining amount of the distribution was paid to minority shareholders.

In the first quarter of 2022, we amended the 5.11 and Lugano intercompany credit agreements. The 5.11 amendment increased the capital expenditure allowable under the credit agreement to account for additional growth capital expenditure opportunities primarily related to retail expansion, and amended the financial covenants to reflect the increased allowable expenditure. The Lugano amendment increased the amount available under the revolving credit facility to permit additional investment in inventory, and amended the financial covenants to reflect the increase in the revolving credit facility. We amended the Lugano intercompany credit agreement again in the second quarter of 2022 to increase the amount in available under the revolving credit facility to permit additional investment in inventory, and amended the financial covenants to reflect the increase in the revolving credit facility. All of our subsidiaries were in compliance with the financial covenants included within their intercompany credit arrangements at June 30, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022, we had the following outstanding loans due from each of our businesses:


(in thousands)
5.11	$	175,368
BOA	94,245
Ergobaby	86,477
Lugano	198,073

Total	$	—

(1) In October 2021, the LLC entered into a merger agreement to sell all of the outstanding securities of Advanced Circuits. Advanced Circuits has been presented as held-for-sale at June 30, 2022.

Our primary source of cash is from the receipt of interest and principal on the outstanding loans to our subsidiaries. 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 applicable 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

2021 Credit Facility

On March 23, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to amend and restate the 2018 Credit Facility. The 2021 Credit Facility provides for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million and also permits the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. All amounts outstanding under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility will become due on March 23, 2026, which is the maturity date of loans advanced under the Revolving Credit Facility.

We had $597.7 million in net availability under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2022. The outstanding borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility include $2.3 million of outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 2022.

2022 Credit Facility

On July 12, 2022, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to amend and restate the 2021 Credit Facility.

The 2022 Credit Facility also provides for a $400 million term loan (the “2022 Term Loan”). The 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly payments ranging from $2.5 million to $7.5 million, commencing September 30, 2022, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on July 12, 2027, which is the 2022 Term Loan’s maturity date.

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 intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures supplements other metrics we use to internally evaluate our businesses and facilitate the comparison of past and present operations.

The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Earnings.

Reconciliation of Net income (loss) from continuing operations to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net income (loss) to Adjusted Earnings

EBITDA – EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), loss on debt extinguishment, 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) integration service fees, which reflect fees paid by newly acquired companies to the Manager for integration services performed during the first year of ownership; and (iv) items of other income or expense that are material to a subsidiary and non-recurring in nature.

Adjusted Earnings - Adjusted earnings is calculated as net income (loss) adjusted to include the cost of the distributions to preferred shareholders, and adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items the exclusion of which management believes provides insight regarding our ongoing operating performance. Depending on the period presented, these adjusted measures exclude the impact of certain of the following items: gains (losses) and income (loss) from discontinued operations, income (loss) from noncontrolling interest, amortization expense, subsidiary stock compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and items of other income or expense that may be material to a subsidiary and non-recurring in nature.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings provide useful information to investors and reflect important financial measures that are used by management in the monthly analysis of our operating results and in

preparation of our annual budgets. We believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance measures as this presentation 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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings provide useful information to investors and reflects 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) and net income (loss) from continuing operations, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, are each 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, as well as certain cash charges. The presentation of Adjusted Earnings provides insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating earnings from continuing operations available to common shareholders. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings 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) from continuing operations, which we consider to be the most comparable GAAP financial measure (in thousands):

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 LLC 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. At June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, CGM entered into a waiver to exclude cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

management fee paid during 2021 than would have normally been due. In the first quarter of 2021, the LLC and CGM entered into a waiver agreement whereby CGM agreed to waive the portion of the management fee related to the amount of the proceeds deposited with the Trustee that was in excess of the amount payable related to the 2026 Senior Notes at March 31, 2021. Additionally, CGM has entered into a waiver of the MSA at December 31, 2021 to exclude cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred the following management fees to CGM, by entity:

Integration Services Agreements

Lugano, which was acquired in September 2021, entered into an Integration Services Agreement ("ISA") with CGM whereby Lugano will pay CGM an integration services fee of $2.3 million quarterly over a twelve-month period ended September 30, 2022. Under the ISAs, CGM provides 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.

Profit Allocation Payments

The ten-year anniversary of Liberty occurred in March 2020 and the ten-year anniversary of Ergobaby occurred in September 2020. Both of these represented a Holding Event, and the holders of the Allocation Interests elected to defer the distribution until after the end of 2020. The profit allocation payment of $3.3 million related to the Liberty Holding Event and the profit allocation of $2.0 million related to the Ergobaby Holding Event were both paid in January 2021. The fifteen-year anniversary of ACI occurred in May 2021 which represented a Holding Event. The Company's Board declared a distribution of $12.1 million that was paid to the Holders in July 2021. The sale of Liberty in August 2021 represented a Sale Event, and the Company's board declared a profit allocation distribution to Holders of $16.8 million.

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, 2021, as filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022.

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 31st, and if current events or circumstances require, on an interim basis. Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, which are generally an 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 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. The valuation approaches are subject to key judgments and assumptions that are sensitive to change such as judgments and assumptions about appropriate sales growth rates, operating margins, weighted average cost of capital, and comparable company market multiples. When developing these key judgments and assumptions, we consider economic, operational and market conditions that could impact the fair value of the reporting unit. Estimates are inherently uncertain and represent only management’s reasonable expectations regarding future developments. These estimates and the judgments and assumptions upon which the estimates are based will most likely differ from actual future results.

2022 Annual Impairment Testing - For our annual impairment testing at March 31, 2022, we performed a qualitative assessment of our reporting units. The results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying value.

2021 Annual Impairment Testing - For our annual impairment testing at March 31, 2021, we performed a qualitative assessment of our reporting units. 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. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we also considered how we expected COVID-19 to impact our future operating results and short and long term financial condition as part of our qualitative assessment, including the effects on our end customers, potential short-term supply chain constraints, and the continued restrictions imposed by government and regulatory authorities. The results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of each of our reporting units except Arnold exceeded their carrying value. Based on our analysis, we determined that the Arnold operating segment required quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of this reporting unit significantly exceeded the carrying value based on qualitative factors alone.

We performed the quantitative tests of Arnold using an income approach to determine the fair value of the reporting units. We do not believe that the market approach results in relevant data points for market multiples or data from comparable companies since most of Arnold's competitors are privately held and do not publish data that can be used in an income approach. 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 the Arnold reporting unit as of the date of our impairment testing. The discount rate used in the income approach was 13.0%, and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Arnold reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by approximately 272%. The prospective financial information that is used to determine the fair values of the Arnold reporting unit 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 unit that was tested quantitatively.

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 $57.0 million. The results of the qualitative analysis of our reporting unit's indefinite-lived intangible assets, which we completed as of March 31, 2022, indicated that the fair value of the indefinite lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying value.
