NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands except share amounts, unless otherwise indicated)
(unaudited)
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Inotiv, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company,” and “Inotiv”) comprise a leading contract research organization (“CRO”) dedicated to providing nonclinical and analytical drug discovery and development services primarily to the pharmaceutical and medical device industries and selling a range of research-quality animals and diets to the same industries as well as academia and government clients. Our products and services focus on bringing new drugs and medical devices through the discovery and preclinical phases of development, all while increasing efficiency, improving data, and reducing the cost of discovering and taking new drugs and medical devices to market. Inotiv is committed to supporting discovery and development objectives as well as helping researchers realize the full potential of their critical research and development projects, all while working together to build a healthier and safer world. We are dedicated to practicing high standards of laboratory animal care and welfare.
The Company reports its results in two segments: Discovery and Safety Assessment (“DSA”) and Research Models and Services (“RMS”).
Through our DSA segment, we provide discovery and translational sciences (“DTS”) and safety assessment services (including nonclinical development and, in certain cases, clinical development) to support the needs of researchers and clinicians for primarily small molecule drug candidates, as well as biotherapeutics and biomedical devices utilizing both Good Laboratory Practice (“GLP”) and non-GLP. Our scientists have skills in histology, pathology, physiology, surgery, analytical chemistry, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology. Our principal clients range from small start-up biotechnology companies to some of the largest global pharmaceutical companies, whose scientists are engaged in analytical chemistry, drug safety evaluation, drug metabolism studies, pharmacokinetics, clinical trials, and basic research.
Through our RMS segment, we offer access to a wide range of purpose-bred animal research models for basic research and drug discovery and development, specialized models for specific diseases and therapeutic areas, and diet, bedding and enrichment products, all supported by our deep animal husbandry expertise. We have the ability to run selected nonclinical studies directly on-site at closely located research model facilities and provide access to innovative genetically engineered models and services solutions. Our principal clients include biopharmaceutical companies, CROs, and academic and government organizations.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to a going concern. This presentation contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business and does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described below.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $12,732 and access to a $15,000 revolving credit facility, which had a $6,000 balance outstanding, which balance remains outstanding as of the date of this report. Further, for the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company had negative operating cash flows, operating losses and consolidated net losses. The financial covenants under the Company's Credit Agreement, dated as of November 5, 2021 (as amended through the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”) include, among others, the First Lien Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (each as defined in the Credit Agreement). Subsequent to December 31, 2025 and within period of time stipulated under the Credit Agreement, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment (as defined in Note 4 - Debt) to the Credit Agreement, which provided a written waiver for the First Lien Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio financial covenants applicable to three months ended December 31, 2025. As a result of the waiver, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement for the period ended December 31, 2025.
Management's fiscal 2026 annual operating plan forecasts noncompliance with its financial covenants pursuant to the Credit Agreement for the remainder of fiscal 2026. If the Company's results of operations in the twelve months following the date of this report do not improve relative to the results of the first three months of fiscal 2026 and to the forecast in the 2026 annual operating plan, the Company will be at risk of non-compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit
Agreement. Further, the Company's Term Loan Facility, Delayed Draw Term Loan, Incremental Term Loans and any outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility (each as defined in Note 4 - Debt) mature in the next 12 months.
If at any time in the twelve months following the date of this report, the Company fails to comply with its financial covenants which remains unremedied for the period of time stipulated under the Credit Agreement, this would constitute an event of default under the Credit Agreement and the lenders may, among other remedies set out under the Credit Agreement, declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the borrowings plus accrued and unpaid interest to be immediately due and payable. Furthermore, if the lenders were to accelerate the loans under the Credit Agreement, such acceleration would constitute a default under our indentures governing the Company's Convertible Senior Notes (the “Notes”) and the Company's 15.00% Senior Secured Second Lien PIK Notes due 2027 (the “Second Lien Notes”) which, if not cured within 30 days following notice of such default from such trustees or holders of 25 percent of the Notes and from the trustee or holders of 30 percent of the Second Lien Notes, would permit the trustee or such holders to accelerate the Notes and the Second Lien Notes. If the loans under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Second Lien Notes are accelerated, the Company does not believe its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, would be sufficient to fund its operations, satisfy its obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures, and repay the entirety of its outstanding senior term loans, outstanding Notes, outstanding revolving credit facility balance and outstanding Second Lien Notes in the next twelve months. Additionally, access to the revolving credit facility would be restricted and such funds would not be available to pay for any operating activities.
Our evaluation of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles entailed analyzing prospective fully implemented operating budgets and forecasts for expectations of our cash needs and comparing those needs to the current cash and cash equivalent balances in order to satisfy our obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures, and to comply with minimum liquidity and financial covenant requirements under our debt covenants related to borrowings pursuant to our Credit Agreement for at least the next twelve months. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented and are outside of its control as of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, we evaluate whether the mitigating effect of our plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
Management has developed our fiscal 2026 annual operating plan in which we plan to continue our efforts to optimize our capital allocation and expense base. Additionally, the Company's plan is to continue its efforts to improve its operating results with a sustained focus on client service and margin discipline, increasing our volume of DTS and safety assessment contract awards and increasing our RMS product and service revenue. In connection with management's fiscal 2026 annual operating plan, the Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund its operations and satisfy its obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, excluding the maturity of the Company's Term Loan Facility, Delayed Draw Term Loan and Incremental Term Loans in November 2026. However, management's fiscal 2026 annual operating plan forecasts noncompliance with its financial covenants pursuant to the Credit Agreement. In the event that the Company fails to comply with the requirements of the financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company has approximately 55 days subsequent to any fiscal quarter, and approximately 100 days subsequent to fiscal year-end, to cure noncompliance (the “grace period”). The Company also continues to discuss its current business conditions with its lenders. Additionally, the Company is exploring potential debt refinancing alternatives. There is no assurance that the Company’s lenders will agree to any amendment or extension to the Credit Agreement, nor can there be any assurance that the Company would be able to raise additional capital, whether through selling additional equity or debt securities or obtaining a line of credit or other loan on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.
The Company’s liquidity needs and compliance with covenants depend, among other things, on its ability to source and sell NHPs, its ability to fill its expanded DSA capacity, its ability to generate cash from other operating activities and its ability to manage its forecasted capital expenditures. Although management believes that it will be able to implement its plan, there can be no assurances that its plan will prove successful. As a result, substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern exists.
Basis of Presentation
The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 include all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and of the Company’s financial position at December 31, 2025. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These include, but are not limited to, management estimates in the calculation and timing of revenue recognition, pension liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and the related valuation allowance. Although estimates are based upon management’s best estimate using historical experience, current events, and actions, actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known.
Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025, and there have been no material changes to those significant accounting policies.
Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740)”. ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced disclosures on income taxes paid, adds disaggregation of continuing operations before income taxes between foreign and domestic earnings and defines specific categories for the reconciliation of jurisdictional tax rate to effective tax rate. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and can be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)”. ASU 2024-03 requires enhanced disclosures on disaggregated information about certain income statement line items in a tabular format in the notes to the financial statements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and can be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivables and Contract Assets.” ASU 2025-05 offers a practical expedient for entities to assume balance sheet date conditions remain unchanged for the asset’s life when estimating credit losses under the reasonable and supportable approach. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, and if practical expedient is elected, the amendments in this update should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software”. ASU 2025-06 removes all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods, including the methods that entities may use to develop software in the future. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted, and can be applied on either a prospective transition approach, a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or a retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables from clients in the biopharmaceutical, contract research, academic, and governmental sectors. The Company believes its exposure to credit risk is minimal, as the majority of the clients are predominantly well established and viable. Additionally, the Company maintains allowances for potential credit losses. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event that payment is not received for revenue recognized equals the outstanding trade receivables and contract assets less fees invoiced in advance.
During the three months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, one client accounted for 14.1% and 20.5% of revenue, respectively. During each of the three months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no vendor spend accounted for more than 10.0% of the sum of cost of services and cost of products.
2. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CLIENTS
DSA
The DSA segment generates service revenue through drug discovery and development services. The DSA segment generates product revenue through internally-manufactured scientific instruments for life sciences research and the related software for use by pharmaceutical companies, universities, government research centers and medical research institutions under the Company’s BASi product line. Refer to Note 1 – Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation for further discussion of the types of services and products offered within the DSA segment.
RMS
The RMS segment generates product revenue through the commercial production and sale of research models, diets, bedding, enrichment and bioproducts. The RMS segment generates service revenue through Genetically Engineered Models and Services (“GEMS”), client-owned animal colony care (colony management services), and health monitoring and diagnostics services related to research models. Refer to Note 1 – Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation for further discussion of the types of services and products offered within the RMS segment.
Contract Assets and Liabilities from Contracts with Clients
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables (trade receivables), contract assets (unbilled revenue), and contract liabilities (client deposits and deferred revenue) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table provides information about contract assets (trade receivables and unbilled revenue, excluding allowances for credit losses), and fees invoiced in advance (client deposits and deferred revenue):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Balance at December 31, 2025 | | Balance at September 30, 2025 |
| Contract assets: Trade receivables | $ | 58,650 | | | $ | 74,156 | |
| Contract assets: Unbilled revenue | 11,011 | | | 10,463 | |
| Contract liabilities: Client deposits | 17,288 | | | 33,152 | |
| Contract liabilities: Deferred revenue | 19,740 | | | 18,360 |
When the Company does not have the unconditional right to advanced billings, both advanced client payments and unpaid advanced client billings are excluded from deferred revenue, with the advanced billings also being excluded from client receivables. The Company excluded approximately $12,944 and $12,167 of unpaid advanced client billings from both trade receivables and deferred revenue as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively.
The Company expects approximately 77% of deferred revenue as of December 31, 2025 to be recognized as revenue within the next twelve months and the remainder to be recognized thereafter during the remaining contract term.
Changes in the contract asset and the contract liability balances during the three months ended December 31, 2025 include the following:
•Changes in the time frame for a right for consideration to become unconditional – approximately 61% of unbilled revenue as of September 30, 2025, was billed during the three months ended December 31, 2025; and
•Changes in the time frame for a performance obligation to be satisfied – approximately 52% of deferred revenue as of September 30, 2025, was recognized as revenue during the three months ended December 31, 2025.
3. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
We have two reportable segments: DSA and RMS, as disclosed in the segment reporting policy in Note 2, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. The reportable segments comprise the structure used by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), to make operating decisions and evaluate performance.
The Company’s CODM evaluates the segments' operating results based on operating income (loss). Segment operating income (loss) is the measure of profit or loss regularly provided to and used by the CODM to assess performance and allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial or capital resources). For each segment, the CODM uses segment operating income (loss) in the annual budgeting and monthly forecasting process when comparing to actual results. Segment operating income (loss) is defined as operating income (loss) excluding unallocated corporate expenses, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, start-up costs, restructuring costs, and other special segment items. Other special segment items include third party and legal costs incurred in connection with the Resolution Agreement and Plea Agreement and legal fees related to another matter.
Segment Information
During the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the RMS segment reported intersegment revenue of $2,980 and $1,272, respectively, related to sales to the DSA segment. The table below presents revenue, operating (loss) income and other results of operations by reportable segment for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Credit Agreement
On November 5, 2021, the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), the lenders party thereto, and an administrative agent (the “Agent”), entered into the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) in the original principal amount of $165,000, a delayed draw term loan facility in the original principal amount of $35,000 (available to be drawn up to 18 months from the date of the Credit Agreement) (the
“Initial DDTL” and together with the Additional DDTL, the “DDTL”) and a revolving credit facility in the original principal amount of $15,000. On November 5, 2021, the Company borrowed the full amount of the term loan facility, but did not borrow any amounts on the DDTL or the revolving credit facility.
The Company could have elected to borrow on each of the loan facilities at either an adjusted LIBOR rate of interest or an adjusted prime rate of interest. Adjusted LIBOR rate loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The LIBOR rate had to be a minimum of 1.00%. The initial adjusted LIBOR rate of interest was the LIBOR rate plus 6.25%. Adjusted prime rate loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the prime rate plus a margin of between 5.00% and 5.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio. The initial adjusted prime rate of interest was the prime rate plus 5.25%.
The Company must pay (i) a fee based on a percentage per annum equal to 0.50% on the average daily undrawn portion of the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility and (ii) a fee based on a percentage per annum equal to 1.00% on the average daily undrawn portion of the commitments in respect of the delayed draw loan facility. In each case, such fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears.
Each of the term loan facility and delayed draw term loan facility require annual principal payments in an amount equal to 1.00% of their respective original principal amounts. The Company shall also repay the term loan facility on an annual basis in an amount equal to a percentage of its Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which percentage will be determined by its then current First Lien Leverage Ratio. Each of the loan facilities may be repaid at any time. Voluntary prepayments were subject to a 1.00% prepayment premium if made on or prior to November 5, 2023 and other breakage penalties, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments made after November 5, 2023 are not subject to any prepayment premium.
The Company is required to maintain a First Lien Leverage Ratio of not more than 4.25 to 1.00 for the Company's fiscal quarters through the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, 3.75 to 1.00 beginning with the Company’s fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, and 3.00 to 1.00 beginning with the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Company is required to maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which ratio was 1.00 to 1.00 during the first year of the Credit Agreement and is 1.10 to 1.00 from and after the Credit Agreement’s first anniversary. The covenants related to the First Lien Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio were amended by the Seventh Amendment. Further, the Eighth Amendment waived the First Lien Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio financial covenant tests for the period ended December 31, 2025 and increased the Company’s required minimum liquidity to $30,000 beginning March 6, 2026.
Each of the loan facilities is secured by all assets (other than certain excluded assets) of the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. Repayment of each of the loan facilities is guaranteed by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors.
On January 7, 2022, the Company drew $35,000 on the Initial DDTL. Amounts outstanding under the Initial DDTL accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The initial adjusted LIBOR rate of interest was the LIBOR rate plus 6.25%.
The Term Loan and the Initial DDTL will mature on November 5, 2026.
First Amendment to Credit Agreement
On January 27, 2022, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders party thereto, and the Agent entered into the First Amendment to the existing Credit Agreement. The First Amendment provides for, among other things, an increase to the existing term loan facility in the amount of $40,000 (the “Incremental Term Loans”) and the Additional DDTL in the original principal amount of $35,000, which amount is available to be drawn up to 24 months from the date of the First Amendment. The Incremental Term Loans and any amounts borrowed under the Additional DDTL are referred to herein as the “Additional Term Loans”. On January 27, 2022, the Company borrowed the full amount of the Incremental Term Loans, and on October 12, 2022, the Company borrowed the full $35,000 under the Additional DDTL.
Amounts outstanding under the Additional Term Loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The initial adjusted LIBOR rate of interest was the LIBOR rate plus 6.25%.
The Additional Term Loans require annual principal payments in an amount equal to 1.00% of the original principal amount. Voluntary prepayments of the Additional Term Loans were subject to a 1.00% prepayment premium if made on or prior to November 5, 2023 and other breakage penalties, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments made after November 5, 2023 are not subject to any prepayment premium.
The Company shall also repay the term loans on an annual basis in an amount equal to a percentage of its Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which percentage will be determined by its then current First Lien Leverage Ratio.
The Additional Term Loans are secured by all assets (other than certain excluded assets) of the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. Repayment of the Additional Term Loans is guaranteed by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors.
The Additional Term Loans will mature on November 5, 2026.
Second Amendment to Credit Agreement
On December 29, 2022, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders party thereto, and the Agent, entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement.
The Second Amendment provided for, among other things, an extension of the deadline for the Company to provide to the lenders the audited financial statements for the Company’s fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 and an annual budget for 2023; the Company satisfied these requirements by the extended deadline. The Second Amendment added a requirement that the Company provide, within 30 days after the end of each month, an unaudited consolidated balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flows as of the end of, and for, such month, as well as a “key performance indicator” report.

In addition, the Second Amendment requires the Company to deliver an updated organization chart and certain supplemental information regarding the Company’s subsidiaries in connection with each quarterly report required pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
Under the Second Amendment, the Company could have elected to borrow on each of the loan facilities at either an adjusted term secured overnight financing rate (“Term SOFR”) rate of interest or an alternate base rate of interest. Term SOFR loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the applicable Term SOFR rate plus (i) an adjustment percentage equal to between 0.11448% and 0.42826%, depending on the term of the loan (“Adjusted Term SOFR”); provided that, Adjusted Term SOFR could never be less than 1.00%, and (ii) a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Alternate base rate loans could accrue interest at an annual rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.50%, (b) the Agent’s prime rate and (c) Adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus 1.00% (the “Second Amendment Alternate Base Rate”); provided that, the Second Amendment Alternate Base Rate could never be less than 2.00%, plus (ii) a margin of between 5.00% and 5.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Ratio.
The Second Amendment also provides that the Company may not request any credit extensions under the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement, if any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 of the Credit Agreement cannot be satisfied, including, without limitation, the making of the representation and warranty that as of the date of the most recent audited financial statements delivered to the Agent, no event, change, circumstance, condition, development or occurrence has had, or would reasonably be expected to result in, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Credit Agreement).
In addition, the Second Amendment provided that, no later than January 13, 2023 (or such later date as the Required Lenders shall agree in their discretion), the Company shall (i) appoint a financial advisor on terms reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders and the Company for a term of at least six months, (ii) provide a 13-week budget to the Agent, and (iii) deliver a perfection certificate supplement updating certain information previously provided with respect to each of the

•additional limitations are imposed on the Company under the Credit Agreement, including restrictions on permitted asset sales, a prohibition on making permitted acquisitions, and significant limitations on the ability to incur additional debt, make investments and make restricted payments.
The Third Amendment provides that from and after the date thereof, no incremental facilities under the Credit Agreement may be established or incurred. The Third Amendment also provides for additional mandatory prepayments of borrowed amounts following the receipt by the Company of certain cash receipts, including proceeds from certain equity issuances and cash received by the Company not in the ordinary course of business. Under the Third Amendment, after any draw on the revolving credit facility, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents held on hand domestically within the U.S. cannot exceed $10,000.
Under the Third Amendment, the Company may elect to borrow on each of the loan facilities accruing interest at either an adjusted Term SOFR or an alternate base rate of interest. Term SOFR loans shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the applicable Term SOFR rate plus (i) an adjustment percentage equal to between 0.11448% and 0.42826%, depending on the term of the loan, provided that, the Adjusted Term SOFR shall never be less than 1.00% per annum, plus (ii) an applicable margin of 6.75% per annum for term loans maintained as SOFR loans or 9.50% per annum for revolving loans maintained as SOFR loans.

The Eighth Amendment makes the following changes to the Credit Agreement: (i) waives the maximum First Lien Leverage Ratio covenant for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025; (ii) waives the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025; and (iii) increases the minimum liquidity covenant from $10,000 to $30,000 for the March 6, 2026 liquidity test date and each liquidity test date thereafter. The liquidity covenant is measured as the average liquidity for the five business day period ending on the last business day of each week, with each such last day being a liquidity test date.
Second Lien Notes
Purchase Agreement
The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated September 13, 2024, with certain investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Purchasers acquired $22,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Notes and Warrants to purchase 3,946,250 Common Shares for consideration comprised of (i) $17,000 in cash and (ii) the cancellation of approximately $8,333 of the Company’s Notes held by certain of the Purchasers. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and pursuant to a Fee Letter between the Company and the structuring agent, the Company also issued to the structuring agent $550 aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Notes and additional warrants to purchase 200,000 Common Shares as compensation for its services as structuring agent for the transactions. In connection therewith, $8,333 of the Notes were cancelled by the Company under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, such that the aggregate principal amount of Notes that remains outstanding is $131,667.
Second Lien Indenture
The Second Lien Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Second Lien Indenture”), dated as of September 13, 2024, by and between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Second Lien Trustee”). The Second Lien Notes are the Company’s senior secured second lien obligations and are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets, and are guaranteed on a senior secured second lien basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors.
Interest on the Second Lien Notes is payable in kind. The Second Lien Notes accrue interest at a rate of 15.00% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, with the initial payment on December 31, 2024. The Second Lien Notes will mature on February 4, 2027, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed.
The Second Lien Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time on or prior to March 13, 2026, at a cash redemption price equal to 100.00% of the principal amount of the Second Lien Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, plus a make-whole premium, as further described in the Second Lien Indenture. The Second Lien Notes may be redeemed on or after March 14, 2026 through and including September 13, 2026, at a redemption price of 102.00% of the principal amount of the Second Lien Notes to be redeemed and (ii) on and after September 14, 2026, at a redemption price of 100.00% of the principal amount of the Second Lien Notes to be redeemed, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, there were $1,069 and $1,297, respectively, in unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Second Lien Notes. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the total interest expense was $1,719, including coupon interest expense of $1,003, accretion expense of $488, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $228. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the total interest expense was $1,525, including coupon interest expense of $1,008, accretion expense of $360, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $157.
The Second Lien Indenture contains covenants restricting the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, incur liens, make investments, make restricted payments, make asset sales and engage in transactions with affiliates, subject to certain baskets. The Second Lien Indenture requires the Company to add future assets to the collateral under the Security Agreement (as defined below) and to add future subsidiaries as guarantors under the Security Agreement.
The Second Lien Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture), which include, among others, the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the Second Lien Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the Second Lien Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) a default by the Company in its obligations or agreements under the Second Lien Indenture or the Second Lien Notes if such default is not cured or waived within certain grace periods; (iii) certain defaults by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $8,625 during the Amendment Relief Period (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture) or of at least $17,250 thereafter; (iv) certain defaults by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to the Credit Agreement; (v) subject to certain exceptions, the rendering of certain judgments against the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the payment of at least $8,625 during the Amendment Relief Period or of at least $17,250 thereafter, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 90 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; (vi) the occurrence of certain ERISA
events; (vii) the loss of material security interests and liens and guarantees, subject to certain exceptions; (viii) certain payment defaults in excess of $11,500 owned by the Company or any of its subsidiaries under the 2024 Settlement (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture) and other failures to perform any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in the 2024 Settlement that is capable of being cured and that is not cured within 30 days after receipt by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of written notice of such failure; (ix) any note Document (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture) or material provision thereof being declared null and void by a court of competent jurisdiction and (x) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving the Company or any of the Company’s significant subsidiaries.
If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to the Company occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Second Lien Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the Second Lien Trustee, by notice to the Company, or noteholders of at least 30.00% of the aggregate principal amount of Second Lien Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Company and the Second Lien Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Second Lien Notes then outstanding to be due and payable immediately.
Security Agreement
On September 13, 2024, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as the collateral agent for the Second Lien Notes (the “Collateral Agent”). Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors granted the Collateral Agent a second lien security interest in substantially all of their assets, including but not limited to certain accounts, equipment, fixtures and intellectual property, in order to secure the payment and performance of all of the Obligations, as defined in the Second Lien Indenture.
Convertible Senior Notes
On September 27, 2021, the Company issued $140,000 principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture, dated as of September 27, 2021, among the Company, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, BAS Evansville, Inc., as guarantor (the “Guarantor”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Convertible Bond Indenture”). Pursuant to the purchase agreement between the Company and the initial purchaser of the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchaser an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the Notes were first issued, up to an additional $15,000 principal amount of the Notes. The Notes issued on September 27, 2021 included $15,000 principal amount of the Notes issued pursuant to the full exercise by the initial purchaser of such option. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings under a new senior secured term loan facility, to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the Envigo acquisition and related fees and expenses.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, $8,333 of the Notes were cancelled by the Company under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, such that the aggregate principal amount of Notes that remains outstanding is $131,667.
The Notes are the Company’s senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior, unsecured basis, by the Guarantor.
The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2022. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2027, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before April 15, 2027, noteholders have the right to convert their Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after April 15, 2027, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The Company will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, its common shares or a combination of cash and its common shares, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 21.7162 common shares per $1 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $46.05 per common share. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that
constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Convertible Bond Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time.
As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, there were $1,847 and $2,093, respectively, in unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Notes. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the total interest expense was $3,052 at an effective rate of 9.38%, including coupon interest expense of $1,079, accretion expense of $1,728, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $245. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the total interest expense was $2,883 at an effective rate of 9.38%, including coupon interest expense of $1,079, accretion expense of $1,572, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $232.
The Notes are redeemable, in whole and not in part, at the Company’s option at any time on or after October 15, 2024 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per common share of the Company exceeds 130.00% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. The redemption price is a cash amount equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, calling the Notes for redemption pursuant to the provisions described in this paragraph will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, which will result in an increase to the conversion rate in certain circumstances for a specified period of time.
If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Convertible Bond Indenture) occur, then noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common shares.
The Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Convertible Bond Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the Notes, are subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) the Company’s failure to send certain notices under the Convertible Bond Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) the failure by the Company or the Guarantor to comply with certain covenants in the Convertible Bond Indenture relating to the ability of the Company or the Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by the Company or the Guarantor in its other obligations or agreements under the Convertible Bond Indenture or the Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the Convertible Bond Indenture; (v) certain defaults by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20,000; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries for the payment of at least $20,000, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective significant subsidiaries; and (viii) the guarantee of the Notes ceases to be in full force and effect (except as permitted by the Convertible Bond Indenture) or the Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee of the Notes.
If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to the Company or the Guarantor (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the trustee, by notice to the Company, or noteholders of at least 25.00% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Company and the trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may elect, at its option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Convertible Bond Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the Notes.
At issuance, the Company evaluated the convertible feature of the Notes and determined it was required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and did not qualify for equity classification. In subsequent periods, the Notes conversion rights met
all equity classification criteria and the fair value of the embedded derivative was reclassified to additional paid-in-capital. The discount resulting from the initial fair value of the embedded derivative has and will continue to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. Non-cash interest expense during the period primarily related to this discount.
Acquisition-related Debt (Seller Payable)
As part of the acquisition of Orient BioResource Center, Inc. (“OBRC”), the Company agreed to leave in place a payable (the “Seller Payable”) owed by OBRC to Orient Bio, Inc. (the “Seller”) in the amount of $3,700, which the Company determined to have a fair value of $3,325 as of January 27, 2022. The Seller Payable did not bear interest and was originally required to be paid to the Seller 18 months after the closing date of January 27, 2022. The Company has the right to set off against the Seller Payable any amounts that become payable by the Seller on account of indemnification obligations under the purchase agreement. On April 4, 2023, the Company and the Seller entered into a First Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to July 27, 2024. On May 24, 2024, the Company and the Seller entered into a Second Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to July 27, 2025. Further, beginning on July 27, 2024, the note bears interest at a rate of 4.60% per annum. Accrued interest and principal will be paid at the maturity date. On October 24, 2024, the Company and the Seller entered into a Third Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to January 27, 2026. On January 27, 2026, the Company and the Seller entered into a Fourth Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to March 27, 2026. No amendments to the Seller Payable have affected the rights and remedies of any party under the stock purchase agreement, nor did any alter, modify or amend or in any way affect any of the terms and conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the stock purchase agreement. The Seller Payable is subordinated to the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement.

8. LEASES
The Company records a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for substantially all leases for which it is a lessee, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 842. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes lease expense for the leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At inception of a contract, the Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances to assess whether or not the contract represents a lease by determining whether or not the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, either explicit or implicit, for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Company has various operating and finance leases for facilities, vehicles and equipment. Facilities leases provide office, laboratory, warehouse, or land that the Company uses to conduct its operations. Vehicle leases primarily provide trucks, vans and trailers utilized in the transportation of diet, bedding and enrichment products and animal research models. Equipment leases provide office equipment, laboratory equipment or services the Company uses to conduct its operations.

9. EQUITY, STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND LOSS PER SHARE
Share numbers and per share amounts are not presented in thousands within this Note 9 unless otherwise noted.
Authorized Shares
The Company has 74,000,000 common shares authorized. As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the Company had 1,000,000 preferred shares authorized and no preferred shares outstanding.
Offering
On December 18, 2024, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement relating to the public offering of 6,000,000 common shares at a purchase price per share to the public of $4.25. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 common shares at the offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions, which option was exercised in full and closed on December 30, 2024. Net proceeds from the offering were $27,524 after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses paid by the Company.
Warrants
The Warrants are classified as equity instruments, have an exercise price of $1.57 per share, and are exercisable at any time until September 13, 2034. Refer to Note 4 - Debt for further discussion of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Fee Letter. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, 1,112,126 of the Warrants were
exercised on a cashless basis and exchanged for 801,013 common shares. This is included in the condensed consolidated statements of shareholders' equity in the “Other” line for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Stock-Based Compensation
On March 13, 2025, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the Inotiv, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”). The amendment to the 2024 Plan increased the number of shares available for issuance under the 2024 Plan by an additional 2,250,000 common shares. On March 14, 2024, the Company's shareholders approved the 2024 Plan. As originally approved, the 2024 Plan provided for the issuance of up to 1,500,000 of the Company's common shares, plus the number of common shares remaining available for future grants under the Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) as of March 14, 2024. Any common shares subject to an award under the 2024 Plan or 2018 Plan that expires, is forfeited or cancelled, is settled for cash or exchanged will become available for future awards under the 2024 Plan. Following the shareholders' approval of the 2024 Plan, awards can no longer be granted under the 2018 Plan. The Company currently grants equity awards from the 2024 Plan. As of December 31, 2025, 1,025,571 shares remained available for grants under the 2024 Plan.
The Company expenses the estimated fair value of stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units over the vesting periods of the grants. The Company recognizes expense for awards subject to graded vesting using the straight-line attribution method and forfeitures, as they are incurred. Stock based compensation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, was $1,382 and $1,770, respectively.
Loss Per Share
The Company computes basic loss per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The Company computes diluted loss per share using the if-converted method for preferred shares and convertible debt, if any, and the treasury stock method for stock options and restricted stock units.
The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator in the computations of basic and diluted loss per share:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended December 31, | | | | |
| 2025 | | 2024 | | | | | | | | |
| Numerator: | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Consolidated net loss | $ | (28,378) | | | $ | (27,630) | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Denominator: | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Weighted-average shares outstanding - Basic (in thousands) | 34,370 | | 27,160 | | | | | | | | |
| Weighted-average shares outstanding - Diluted (in thousands) | 34,370 | | 27,160 | | | | | | | | |
Anti-dilutive common share equivalents1 | 10,561 | | 9,784 | | | | | | | | |
1As of December 31, 2025, anti-dilutive common share equivalents are comprised of stock options, restricted stock units, 2,859,306 common shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and 3,034,124 common shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. As of December 31, 2024, anti-dilutive common share equivalents are comprised of stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock awards, 2,859,306 common shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and 3,034,124 common shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. These common share equivalents were outstanding for the periods presented, but were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share for those periods because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect. |
10. INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company recognizes the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company records valuation allowances based on a determination of the expected realization of tax assets.
The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 5.5% and 7.3%, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily driven by a valuation allowance associated with certain deferred tax assets. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily driven by a change in the valuation allowance.
11. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is involved in actual or threatened legal actions, including class actions, and the Company also receives inquiries from regulators and other government authorities relating to various aspects of its business. At any given time, the Company has matters at various stages of resolution. The outcomes of these matters are not within the Company’s control and may not be known for prolonged periods of time. In some actions, claimants seek damages, as well as other relief including injunctive relief, that could require significant expenditures or result in lost revenues.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company records a liability in its condensed consolidated financial statements for material loss contingencies when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is accrued. When determining the estimated loss or range of loss, significant judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of a loss to be recorded. Estimates of probable losses resulting from litigation, governmental proceedings and other contingencies are inherently difficult to predict, particularly when the matters are in early procedural stages, with incomplete facts or legal discovery; involve unsubstantiated or indeterminate claims for damages; potentially involve penalties, fines, disgorgement, or punitive damages; or could result in a change in business practice.
Further, in accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company records an asset in its condensed consolidated financial statements relating to a recovery only when realization of the claim for recovery is deemed probable. An asset should be recognized to the extent that a loss has previously been recognized. Any expected proceeds in excess of a previously recognized loss or a recovery of a loss not yet recognized in the financial statements should be treated as a gain contingency.
Securities Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits
On June 23, 2022, a putative securities class action lawsuit (the “Securities Class Action”) was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, naming the Company and Robert W. Leasure and Beth A. Taylor as defendants, captioned Grobler v. Inotiv, Inc., et al., Case No. 4:22-cv-00045 (N.D. Ind.). The complaint alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, based on alleged false and misleading statements and material omissions regarding the Company’s acquisition of Envigo and its regulatory compliance. On September 12, 2022, Oklahoma Police Pension and Retirement System was appointed by the Court as lead plaintiff. Thereafter, on November 14, 2022, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint against the same defendants, in addition to John E. Sagartz and Carmen Wilbourn, that asserted the same claims along with a claim under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act. On November 23, 2022, the lead plaintiff filed a further amended complaint against the aforementioned defendants asserting the same claims as the amended complaint and further alleging that false and misleading statements and material omissions were made concerning the Company’s non-human primate business. The purported class in the operative complaint includes all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s common shares between September 21, 2021 and November 16, 2022, and the complaint seeks an unspecified amount of monetary damages, interest, fees and expenses of attorneys and experts, and other relief. On January 27, 2023, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. That motion was fully briefed by April 28, 2023. On March 29, 2024, the Court issued a decision denying, in part, Defendants’ motion to dismiss.
On September 25, 2025, the parties entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement to settle the Securities Class Action (the “Securities Settlement”), which the Court preliminarily approved on October 3, 2025. Following the notice period to members of the putative settlement class, the Court held a final fairness hearing on January 27, 2026. At this hearing, the Court granted final approval of the Securities Settlement, finding the terms to be fair, reasonable, and adequate. The Company entered into the Securities Settlement to eliminate the uncertainty, burden, and expense of protracted litigation. The Securities Settlement does not assign or reflect any admission of wrongdoing or liability by the Company or the individual defendants, all of whom deny any wrongdoing.
The Securities Settlement fully resolves the Securities Class Action claims against the Company and the individual defendants Robert W. Leasure, Beth A. Taylor, John E. Sagartz, and Carmen Wilbourn. As consideration for the Securities Settlement, the Company caused to be paid a cash settlement payment of $8,750 (“Cash Payment”) to the members of the class. The Cash Payment was fully funded by available insurance. Class members who may be entitled to receive distributions from the cash settlement include all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s common shares between September 21, 2021 and May 20, 2022 or who held the Company’s common shares and were entitled to vote on matters necessary to effectuate the Company’s acquisition of Envigo RMS, LLC at a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders on November 4, 2021 (subject to certain exclusions). The Court also awarded plaintiff attorneys’ fees and costs, which will be funded entirely from the Cash Payment.
On September 9, 2022, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, naming Robert W. Leasure, Beth A. Taylor, Gregory C. Davis, R. Matthew Neff, Richard A. Johnson, John E. Sagartz, Nigel Brown, and Scott Cragg as defendants, and the Company as a nominal defendant, captioned Grobler v. Robert W. Leasure, et al., Case No. 4:22-cv-00064 (N.D. Ind.) (the “Grobler Derivative Action”). On January 4, 2023, an additional shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, naming Robert W. Leasure, Beth A. Taylor, Gregory C. Davis, R. Matthew Neff, Richard A. Johnson, John E. Sagartz, Nigel Brown, and Scott Cragg as defendants, and the Company as a nominal defendant, captioned Burkhart v. Robert W. Leasure, et al., Case No 4:23-cv-00003 (N.D. Ind.) (the “Burkhart Derivative Action,” and together with the Grobler Derivative Action, the “Federal Derivative Action”). The Federal Derivative Actions collectively assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets, as well as violations of Sections 10(b), 14(a), and 21D of the Exchange Act arising out of the Company’s acquisition of Envigo and its regulatory compliance. The Court consolidated the Federal Derivative Actions on April 24, 2024, and Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on June 24, 2024.
On April 20, 2023, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the State of Indiana Tippecanoe County Circuit Court, naming Robert W. Leasure, Beth A. Taylor, Gregory C. Davis, R. Matthew Neff, Richard A. Johnson, John E. Sagartz, Nigel Brown, and Scott Cragg as defendants, and the Company as a nominal defendant, captioned Whitfield v. Gregory C. Davis, et al., Case No. 79C01-2304-PL-000048 (Tippecanoe Circuit Court) (the “Whitfield Derivative Action”). On June 2, 2023, an additional shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the Indiana Commercial Court of Marion County, naming Robert W. Leasure, Beth A. Taylor, Carmen Wilbourn, Gregory C. Davis, R. Matthew Neff, Richard A. Johnson, John E. Sagartz, Nigel Brown, and Scott Cragg as defendants, and the Company as a nominal defendant, captioned Castro v. Robert W. Leasure, et al., Case No. 49D01-2306-PL-022213 (Marion Superior Court 1) (the “Castro Derivative Action,” together with the Whitfield Derivative Action, the “State Derivative Actions,” and together with the consolidated Federal Derivative Actions, the “Derivative Actions”). The State Derivative Actions collectively assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, and waste of corporate assets arising out of the Company’s acquisition of Envigo and its regulatory compliance, and the Company’s non-human primate business. On August 24, 2023, the Castro Derivative Action was transferred to the Tippecanoe County Circuit Court and consolidated with the Whitfield Derivative Action.
On September 25, 2025, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the Derivative Actions. On December 18, 2025, the parties to the Derivative Actions executed a stipulation of settlement (the “Proposed Derivative Settlement”). The Court preliminary approved the Proposed Derivative Settlement on January 7, 2026, and scheduled a settlement hearing for March 18, 2026.
The Company agreed to the Proposed Derivative Settlement to eliminate the uncertainty, burden, and expense of protracted litigation. The Proposed Derivative Settlement does not assign or reflect any admission of wrongdoing or liability by the individual defendants or the Company as the nominal defendant, all of whom deny any wrongdoing. The Proposed Derivative Settlement is subject in all respects to court approval and there can be no assurance that the court will approve the Proposed Derivative Settlement.
If approved by the court, the Proposed Derivative Settlement will fully resolve the Derivative Actions, including all claims against individual defendants Robert W. Leasure, Beth A. Taylor, Gregory C. Davis, R. Matthew Neff, Richard A. Johnson, John E. Sagartz, Nigel Brown, Scott Cragg, and Carmen Wilbourn, and the Company as a nominal defendant. The Proposed Derivative Settlement credits the plaintiffs in the Derivative Actions for the fact that the Company was the beneficiary of $2,490 from certain of its insurers, which amount was utilized by the Company as part of the Cash Payment for the Securities Settlement. The Proposed Derivative Settlement also involves the institution and maintenance of certain corporate governance measures by the Company, including, for a period of at least five years, having a separate Chief Executive Officer and Board Chairperson, maintaining a fully independent Board Chairperson, instituting certain
guidelines for due diligence conducted in any future mergers and acquisitions, and maintaining a disclosure committee. Plaintiffs in the Derivative Actions will, in addition, seek attorneys’ fees, the amount of which will not exceed $2,250 and will be subject to court approval. The Company expects any award of attorneys’ fees to be fully funded by available insurance.
Based on the amounts included in the Securities Settlement and the Proposed Derivative Settlement, as of each of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the Company recorded an $11,000 liability, and an $11,000 asset, related to the Securities Class Action and the Derivative Actions. The $8,750 Cash Payment was distributed to the plaintiff for appropriate distribution after the final fairness hearing for the Securities Settlement.
Privacy Class Actions
The Company has been named as a defendant in three putative class actions relating to the cybersecurity incident experienced in August 2025 (the “2025 Cybersecurity Incident”) pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana: (1) Doyal v. Inotiv, Inc., Case No. 4:25-cv-00046 (filed on August 21, 2025); (2) Merrell v. Inotiv, Inc., Case No. 4:25-cv-00047 (filed on August 25, 2025); and (3) Wagner v. Inotiv, Inc., Case No. 4:25-cv-00049 (filed on September 2, 2025). The complaints filed in each action generally allege that the plaintiffs and the proposed class members were harmed when their personally identifying information and protected health information (together, “Private Information”) was impacted by the 2025 Cybersecurity Incident. The purported class includes all persons in the United States whose Private Information allegedly was impacted by the 2025 Cybersecurity Incident. The complaints seek (i) an order certifying the cases as class actions, (ii) unspecified amounts of monetary damages, restitution, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs, and (iii) certain injunctive or equitable relief relating to (a) the safeguarding of proposed class members’ Private Information, and (b) the implementation of technical and administrative cybersecurity programs, procedures and controls. On October 21, 2025, the three putative class actions were consolidated under a new caption: In re: Inotiv, Inc. Data Incident Litigation, Case No. 4:25-CV-46-PPS-JEM. On November 26, 2025, the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint, which the Company moved to dismiss on January 9, 2026. In response to the Company’s motion to dismiss, the plaintiffs filed another amended consolidated complaint on January 30, 2026. No trial date has been set.
Envigo Class Action
Envigo is a defendant in a purported class action and a related action under California’s Private Attorney General Act of 2004 (“PAGA”) brought by Jacob Greenwell, a former non-exempt employee of Envigo, on June 25, 2021 in the Superior Court of California, Alameda County (“Court”). The complaints allege that Envigo violated certain wage and hour requirements under the California Labor Code. PAGA authorizes private attorneys to bring claims on behalf of the State of California and aggrieved employees for violations of California’s wage and hour laws. The class action complaint seeks certification of a class of similarly situated employees and the award of actual, consequential and incidental losses and damages for the alleged violations. The PAGA complaint seeks civil penalties pursuant to the California Labor Code and attorney’s fees. On June 2, 2023, Envigo and the plaintiff signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) that sets forth the parties’ intent to settle these matters for $795 which includes attorneys’ fees. On August 2, 2024, the parties entered into a Joint Stipulation of Class Action and PAGA Settlement and Release of Claims (the “PAGA Settlement Agreement”) that incorporated the material terms of the MOU and is subject to the Court's approval. The PAGA Settlement Agreement contains no admission of liability or wrongdoing by Envigo. The PAGA Settlement Agreement provides that, if the settlement is approved by the Court, the settlement amount would be paid in four quarterly installments, with the first one to be funded after the Court’s final approval of the settlement, and the following ones in the three subsequent quarters. A motion for preliminary approval of the settlement was granted by the Court on June 12, 2025, subject to the submission of a revised proposed order. The parties await the Court adopting the proposed order so that the settlement notice process may commence. The final approval hearing by the Court is scheduled for March 17, 2026. The Company took a reserve equal to the proposed settlement amount, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
The Company is party to certain other legal actions arising out of the normal course of its business. In management's opinion, none of these actions will have a material effect on the Company's operations, financial condition or liquidity.
Government Investigations and Actions
The Company is subject to and/or involved in various government investigations, inquiries and actions, including as described below. Given its inherent uncertainty, except as otherwise noted, the Company cannot predict the duration or
outcome of the pending matter described below. An adverse outcome of the following matter could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
Resolution Agreement and Plea Agreement
On June 3, 2024, the Company announced that it had reached agreement with the DOJ to resolve a previously-announced criminal investigation into its shuttered canine breeding facility located in Cumberland, Virginia, which was operated originally by Envigo in November 2021. In connection with such resolution, the Company and its related entities entered into the Resolution Agreement (the “Resolution Agreement”) with the DOJ and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Virginia (“USAO-WDV”), and Envigo and Envigo Global Services, Inc. (“EGSI”) entered into the Plea Agreement (the “Plea Agreement”) with the DOJ and the USAO-WDV. On June 3, 2024, before the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, Envigo pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of conspiracy to violate the Animal Welfare Act and EGSI pleaded guilty to one felony count of conspiracy to violate the Clean Water Act. On October 24, 2024, the Court sentenced Envigo and EGSI according to the terms agreed to between the DOJ and the Company in the Resolution Agreement and Plea Agreement.
Pursuant to the Resolution Agreement and the Plea Agreement, the Company, Envigo and EGSI, among other matters, have agreed to: (i) make payments totaling $22,000 in fines, with $5,000 payable on each of June 3, 2025, 2026 and 2027, and $7,000 (plus accrued interest beginning on the sentencing date) payable on June 3, 2028; (ii) on June 3, 2024, pay $3,000, split between the Virginia Animal Fighting Taskforce and the Humane Society of the United States in recognition of assistance provided to the U.S. Government’s investigation; (iii) on June 3, 2024, pay $3,500 to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to fund environmental projects, studies, and initiatives in Cumberland County, Virginia; (iv) expend at least $7,000 ($2,500 by June 3, 2025, $2,500 by June 3, 2026, and $2,000 by June 3, 2027) for improvements to its facilities and personnel related to the welfare of animals; (v) provide a lien to the United States against sufficient Company assets to secure the deferred payments in connection with the $22,000 fine, which lien will be junior to only the lien provided by the Company to lenders under its credit facility as of April 1, 2024 and additional liens to secure up to $100,000 of additional debt; (vi) meet specified standards with respect to the health, safety and well-being of animals under the Company’s care; (vii) develop, adopt, implement, fund and comply with a comprehensive nationwide compliance plan related to applicable laws; and (viii) on January 20, 2025, appoint the Compliance Monitor to review the Company’s care of animals and compliance with certain laws, and to pay all associated costs, which Compliance Monitor shall serve for a term that expires on January 20, 2030, five years from appointment of the Compliance Monitor, unless the Company is released from probation prior to completion of the five-year term, in which case the monitorship term shall expire on January 20, 2028, three years from appointment of the Compliance Monitor, or two months after the completion of probation, whichever is later. In addition, the pleas result in Envigo and EGSI being subject to probation for up to five years, with the potential to end the term early at a minimum of three years if the Company complies with the elements of the resolution. Refer to Note 5 Supplemental Balance Sheet Information - Other long term liabilities for further discussion of payments associated with the Resolution Agreement and the Plea Agreement.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
All amounts in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are presented in thousands, unless otherwise specified.
Business Overview
Inotiv is a leading contract research organization (“CRO”) dedicated to providing nonclinical and analytical drug discovery and development services primarily to the pharmaceutical and medical device industries and selling a range of research-quality animals and diets to the same industries as well as academia and government clients. Our products and services focus on bringing new drugs and medical devices through the discovery and preclinical phases of development and, in certain cases, the clinical phases of development, all while focusing on increasing efficiency, improving data, and reducing the cost of discovering and taking new drugs and medical devices to market. Inotiv is committed to supporting discovery and development objectives as well as helping researchers realize the full potential of their critical research and development projects, all while working together to build a healthier and safer world. We are dedicated to practicing high standards of laboratory animal care and welfare.
We have two reportable segments: Discovery and Safety Assessment (“DSA”) and Research Models and Services (“RMS”).
Through our DSA segment, we provide discovery and translational sciences (“DTS”) and safety assessment (“SA”) services (including nonclinical development and, in certain cases, clinical development) to support the needs of researchers and clinicians for primarily small molecule drug candidates, as well as biotherapeutics and biomedical devices utilizing
both Good Laboratory Practice (“GLP”) and non-GLP. Our scientists have skills in histology, pathology, physiology, surgery, analytical chemistry, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology. Our principal clients range from small start-up biotechnology companies to some of the largest global pharmaceutical companies, whose scientists are engaged in analytical chemistry, drug safety evaluation, drug metabolism studies, pharmacokinetics, clinical trials, and basic research.
Through our RMS segment, we offer access to a wide range of purpose-bred animal research models for basic research and drug discovery and development, specialized models for specific diseases and therapeutic areas, and diet, bedding and enrichment products, all supported by our deep animal husbandry expertise. We have the ability to run selected nonclinical studies directly on-site at closely located research model facilities and provide access to innovative genetically engineered models and services solutions. Our principal clients include biopharmaceutical companies, CROs, and academic and government organizations.
Site Optimization and Transportation
During the three months ended December 31, 2025, in order to support the continued integration and improvement of our North American transportation and distribution systems, we continued to move forward with right-sizing our leased vehicle fleet.
We anticipate that Phase Two of our site optimization plan for the RMS business (“Phase Two”) will require a total capital investment of approximately $7,000. Of this expected capital investment, we have spent $4,761 to date. We expect that Phase Two will reduce production capacity and create operating efficiencies, while supporting our animal welfare objectives, and provide net annual savings of $6,000 to $7,000. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we exited two leased facilities in connection with Phase Two. We expect Phase Two to be complete by the end of the third fiscal quarter of 2026.
2025 Cybersecurity Incident
On August 8, 2025, we became aware of a cybersecurity incident affecting certain of our systems and data (the “2025 Cybersecurity Incident”). Upon identifying encrypted systems, we took steps to contain, assess, and remediate the cybersecurity incident, including initiating an investigation, engaging external cybersecurity specialists, and restricting access to certain of its systems. We also notified law enforcement. We have restored availability and access to our networks and systems. The forensic investigation of the 2025 Cybersecurity Incident is now complete and determined that between approximately August 5-8, 2025, a threat actor gained unauthorized access to the Company’s systems and may have acquired certain data. The Company is in the process of providing notifications regarding the 2025 Cybersecurity Incident in accordance with applicable legal obligations. While we have identified the likely scope of the incident, the full operational and financial impacts are still being evaluated. Accordingly, we have not yet determined whether the 2025 Cybersecurity Incident is reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company.
Securities Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits
In order to eliminate the uncertainty, burden, and expense of protracted litigation, on September 25, 2025, we entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement (the “Securities Settlement”) to settle the Securities Class Action. The Court granted final approval of the Securities Settlement on January 27, 2026. Refer to Note 11 - Contingencies and Commitments for further discussion of the Securities Class Action and the Securities Settlement.
In order to eliminate the uncertainty, burden, and expense of protracted litigation, on September 25, 2025, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the Derivative Actions. On December 18, 2025, the parties to the Derivative Actions executed a stipulation of settlement (the “Proposed Derivative Settlement”). The Court preliminarily approved the Proposed Derivative Settlement on January 7, 2026, and scheduled a settlement hearing for March 18, 2026. The Proposed Derivative Settlement is subject in all respects to court approval and there can be no assurance that the court will approve the Proposed Derivative Settlement. Refer to Note 11 - Contingencies and Commitments for further discussion of the Derivative Actions and the Proposed Derivative Settlement.
As of December 31, 2025, we recorded an $11,000 liability and an $11,000 insurance recovery asset related to the Securities Settlement and the Proposed Derivative Settlement, collectively.
Nasdaq Delisting Notice
On December 31, 2025, we received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”) because our common shares failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. This letter provides an initial 180 calendar day period, or until June 29, 2026, in which to regain compliance. If we do not regain compliance by July 29, 2026, we may be eligible for an additional 180-day grace period.
We intend to continue to monitor the bid price for our common shares and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, including seeking shareholder approval of a reverse split of our common shares in order to increase the trading price of our common shares in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. There is no assurance, however, that we will be eligible for an additional compliance period or that any actions we take will resolve the deficiency. If we fail to regain and maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule or we fail to continue to meet all other applicable continued listing requirements for Nasdaq, our common shares may be delisted, which would adversely affect the market liquidity of our common shares and our ability to obtain financing to fund our operations. See Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this report for a description of the risks related to this notice.
External Factors
We remain attentive to external factors, including tariffs, client research and development funding levels, and the recently announced efforts to accelerate implementation of the FDA Modernization Act 2.0, including a roadmap to reduce animal testing in preclinical safety studies with scientifically validated new approach methodologies, any of which may increase our costs and could continue to drive uncertainty and instability in global markets. Any or all of these external factors could impact both of our segments.
Our imported NHPs were subject to tariffs ranging from 15% to 20% during the first quarter of fiscal 2026. These tariffs were required to be paid within approximately 30 days of import, which is a shorter timeframe than the average NHP research model inventory turnover period. As a result, payment of tariffs negatively impacted the Company's cash flows during the first fiscal quarter of 2026 and is expected to continue to impact the Company's cash flows in the future. Future NHP imports are currently expected to remain subject to tariffs in the range of 15% to 20%. However, we have and expect to continue to work with suppliers and customers to attempt to mitigate the financial impact of these additional costs. The current and future applicable tariff percentages are based on the country of origin of the imported NHPs. If tariff rates continue to increase, we expect to continue working with suppliers and customers to attempt to mitigate these potential additional costs as the NHPs are mission-critical to the safety testing of new medicines; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in any mitigation efforts.
Client research and development funding levels, particularly those impacted by government sources like the U.S. National Institutes of Health (“NIH”), can be challenging to forecast. Funding of research and development is impacted by the political process, which is ever-changing. We continue to monitor macro indicators and maintain communication with our clients, as needed, regarding client research and development funding levels.
With respect to the FDA Modernization Act 2.0, which encourages the industry to explore alternatives to animal testing, many of our acquisitions and investments have been implemented, at least in part, if not sometimes wholly, with the intent to help position us for the future. We believe our future objectives are in line with the goals outlined in the FDA Modernization Act 2.0. Examples of some of our current service offerings which we believe are in line with these goals include predictive computer software, computational toxicology, bioinformatics, proteomics, ex vivo and in vitro cell-based assays, and assays we run in human cells and tissues.

DSA revenue increased by $5,133 in the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. DSA revenue increased primarily due to increased DTS revenue and increased SA revenue. The increase in DTS revenue included increased discovery pharmacology service revenue and the increased SA revenue included increased surgical services revenue and new business at our Rockville facility.
DSA operating income was $3,149 in the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $1,946 in the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $1,203, primarily due to the increase in revenue discussed above, partially offset by an increase in cost of revenue. The increase in DSA cost of revenue primarily related to increased compensation and benefits costs and increased supplies expense.

RMS revenue decreased $4,130 in the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower NHP volumes sold, partially offset by higher average selling prices for NHPs compared to the prior year quarter and higher NHP-related services revenue.
RMS operating loss was $3,554 in the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $1,185 in the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $2,369, due primarily to the decrease in revenue discussed above and increased operating expenses, partially offset by decreased cost of revenue and decreased depreciation and amortization of intangible assets. The $986 increase in operating expenses was primarily due to an increased provision for expected credit losses. The $2,559 decrease in cost of revenue primarily related to decreased costs associated with the decreased NHP product revenue as discussed above and decreased compensation and benefits costs, partially offset by increased non-NHP inventory costs.

Unallocated corporate costs consist of general and administrative expenses, other operating expenses and depreciation expenses that are not directly related or allocated to the reportable segments. The decreased operating loss of $343 in the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by decreased operating expenses.
Other Expense
Other expense decreased by $615 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily driven by a decrease of $375 in interest expense.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 5.5% and 7.3%, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily driven by a valuation allowance in connection with certain deferred tax assets. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily driven by a change in the valuation allowance.
Consolidated Net Loss
As a result of the factors described above, we had a consolidated net loss of $28,378 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $27,630 during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to a going concern. This presentation contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business and does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described below.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $12,732 and access to a $15,000 revolving credit facility, which had a $6,000 balance outstanding, which balance remains outstanding as of the date of this
report. Further, for the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company had negative operating cash flows, operating losses and consolidated net losses. The financial covenants under the Company's Credit Agreement, dated as of November 5, 2021 (as amended through the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”) include, among others, the First Lien Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (each as defined in the Credit Agreement). Subsequent to December 31, 2025 and within period of time stipulated under the Credit Agreement, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment (as defined in Note 4 - Debt) to the Credit Agreement, which provided a written waiver for the First Lien Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio financial covenants applicable to three months ended December 31, 2025. As a result of the waiver, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement for the period ended December 31, 2025.
Management's fiscal 2026 annual operating plan forecasts noncompliance with its financial covenants pursuant to the Credit Agreement for the remainder of fiscal 2026. If the Company's results of operations in the twelve months following the date of this report do not improve relative to the results of the first three months of fiscal 2026 and to the forecast in the 2026 annual operating plan, the Company will be at risk of non-compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Agreement. Further, the Company's Term Loan Facility, Delayed Draw Term Loan, Incremental Term Loans and any outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility (each as defined in Note 4 - Debt) mature in the next 12 months.
If at any time in the twelve months following the date of this report, the Company fails to comply with its financial covenants which remains unremedied for the period of time stipulated under the Credit Agreement, this would constitute an event of default under the Credit Agreement and the lenders may, among other remedies set out under the Credit Agreement, declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the borrowings plus accrued and unpaid interest to be immediately due and payable. Furthermore, if the lenders were to accelerate the loans under the Credit Agreement, such acceleration would constitute a default under our indentures governing the Company's Convertible Senior Notes (the “Notes”) and the Company's 15.00% Senior Secured Second Lien PIK Notes due 2027 (the “Second Lien Notes”) which, if not cured within 30 days following notice of such default from such trustees or holders of 25 percent of the Notes and from the trustee or holders of 30 percent of the Second Lien Notes, would permit the trustee or such holders to accelerate the Notes and the Second Lien Notes. If the loans under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Second Lien Notes are accelerated, the Company does not believe its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, would be sufficient to fund its operations, satisfy its obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures, and repay the entirety of its outstanding senior term loans, outstanding Notes, outstanding revolving credit facility balance and outstanding Second Lien Notes in the next twelve months. Additionally, access to the revolving credit facility would be restricted and such funds would not be available to pay for any operating activities.
Our evaluation of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles entailed analyzing prospective fully implemented operating budgets and forecasts for expectations of our cash needs and comparing those needs to the current cash and cash equivalent balances in order to satisfy our obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures, and to comply with minimum liquidity and financial covenant requirements under our debt covenants related to borrowings pursuant to our Credit Agreement for at least the next twelve months. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented and are outside of its control as of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, we evaluate whether the mitigating effect of our plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
Management has developed our fiscal 2026 annual operating plan in which we plan to continue our efforts to optimize our capital allocation and expense base. Additionally, the Company's plan is to continue its efforts to improve its operating results with a sustained focus on client service and margin discipline, increasing our volume of DTS and safety assessment contract awards and increasing our RMS product and service revenue. In connection with management's fiscal 2026 annual operating plan, the Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund its operations and satisfy its obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, excluding the maturity of the Company's Term Loan Facility, Delayed Draw Term Loan and Incremental Term Loans in November 2026. However, management's fiscal 2026 annual operating plan forecasts noncompliance with its financial covenants pursuant to the Credit Agreement. In the event that the Company fails to comply with the requirements of the financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company has
approximately 55 days subsequent to any fiscal quarter, and approximately 100 days subsequent to fiscal year-end, to cure noncompliance (the “grace period”). The Company also continues to discuss its current business conditions with its lenders. Additionally, the Company is exploring potential debt refinancing alternatives. There is no assurance that the Company’s lenders will agree to any amendment or extension to the Credit Agreement, nor can there be any assurance that the Company would be able to raise additional capital, whether through selling additional equity or debt securities or obtaining a line of credit or other loan on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.
The Company’s liquidity needs and compliance with covenants depend, among other things, on its ability to source and sell NHPs, its ability to fill its expanded DSA capacity, its ability to generate cash from other operating activities and its ability to manage its forecasted capital expenditures. Although management believes that it will be able to implement its plan, there can be no assurances that its plan will prove successful. As a result, substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern exists.

Credit Agreement
On November 5, 2021, the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), the lenders party thereto, and an administrative agent (the “Agent”), entered into the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) in the original principal amount of $165,000, a delayed draw term loan facility in the original principal amount of $35,000 (available to be drawn up to 18 months from the date of the Credit Agreement) (the
“Initial DDTL” and together with the Additional DDTL, the “DDTL”) and a revolving credit facility in the original principal amount of $15,000. On November 5, 2021, the Company borrowed the full amount of the term loan facility, but did not borrow any amounts on the DDTL or the revolving credit facility.
The Company could have elected to borrow on each of the loan facilities at either an adjusted LIBOR rate of interest or an adjusted prime rate of interest. Adjusted LIBOR rate loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The LIBOR rate had to be a minimum of 1.00%. The initial adjusted LIBOR rate of interest was the LIBOR rate plus 6.25%. Adjusted prime rate loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the prime rate plus a margin of between 5.00% and 5.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio. The initial adjusted prime rate of interest was the prime rate plus 5.25%.
The Company must pay (i) a fee based on a percentage per annum equal to 0.50% on the average daily undrawn portion of the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility and (ii) a fee based on a percentage per annum equal to 1.00% on the average daily undrawn portion of the commitments in respect of the delayed draw loan facility. In each case, such fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears.
Each of the term loan facility and delayed draw term loan facility require annual principal payments in an amount equal to 1.00% of their respective original principal amounts. The Company shall also repay the term loan facility on an annual basis in an amount equal to a percentage of its Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which percentage will be determined by its then current First Lien Leverage Ratio. Each of the loan facilities may be repaid at any time. Voluntary prepayments were subject to a 1.00% prepayment premium if made on or prior to November 5, 2023 and other breakage penalties, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments made after November 5, 2023 are not subject to any prepayment premium.
The Company is required to maintain a First Lien Leverage Ratio of not more than 4.25 to 1.00 for the Company's fiscal quarters through the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, 3.75 to 1.00 beginning with the Company’s fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, and 3.00 to 1.00 beginning with the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Company is required to maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which ratio was 1.00 to 1.00 during the first year of the Credit Agreement and is 1.10 to 1.00 from and after the Credit Agreement’s first anniversary. The covenants related to the First Lien Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio were amended by the Seventh Amendment. Further, the Eighth Amendment waived the First Lien Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio financial covenant tests for the period ended December 31, 2025 and increased the Company’s required minimum liquidity to $30,000 beginning March 6, 2026.
Each of the loan facilities is secured by all assets (other than certain excluded assets) of the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. Repayment of each of the loan facilities is guaranteed by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors.
On January 7, 2022, the Company drew $35,000 on the Initial DDTL. Amounts outstanding under the Initial DDTL accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The initial adjusted LIBOR rate of interest was the LIBOR rate plus 6.25%.
The Term Loan and the Initial DDTL will mature on November 5, 2026.
First Amendment to Credit Agreement
On January 27, 2022, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders party thereto, and the Agent entered into the First Amendment to the existing Credit Agreement. The First Amendment provides for, among other things, an increase to the existing term loan facility in the amount of $40,000 (the “Incremental Term Loans”) and the Additional DDTL in the original principal amount of $35,000, which amount is available to be drawn up to 24 months from the date of the First Amendment. The Incremental Term Loans and any amounts borrowed under the Additional DDTL are referred to herein as the “Additional Term Loans”. On January 27, 2022, the Company borrowed the full amount of the Incremental Term Loans, and on October 12, 2022, the Company borrowed the full $35,000 under the Additional DDTL.
Amounts outstanding under the Additional Term Loans accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 6.00% and 6.50%, depending on the Company’s then current First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The initial adjusted LIBOR rate of interest was the LIBOR rate plus 6.25%.
The Additional Term Loans require annual principal payments in an amount equal to 1.00% of the original principal amount. Voluntary prepayments of the Additional Term Loans were subject to a 1.00% prepayment premium if made on or prior to November 5, 2023 and other breakage penalties, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments made after November 5, 2023 are not subject to any prepayment premium.

Second Lien Indenture
The Second Lien Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Second Lien Indenture”), dated as of September 13, 2024, by and between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Second Lien Trustee”). The Second Lien Notes are the Company’s senior secured second lien obligations and are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets, and are guaranteed on a senior secured second lien basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors.
Interest on the Second Lien Notes is payable in kind. The Second Lien Notes accrue interest at a rate of 15.00% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, with the initial payment on December 31, 2024.

The Second Lien Indenture contains covenants restricting the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, incur liens, make investments, make restricted payments, make asset sales and engage in transactions with affiliates, subject to certain baskets. The Second Lien Indenture requires the Company to add future assets to the collateral under the Security Agreement (as defined below) and to add future subsidiaries as guarantors under the Security Agreement.
The Second Lien Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture), which include, among others, the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the Second Lien Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the Second Lien Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) a default by the Company in its obligations or agreements under the Second Lien Indenture or the Second Lien Notes if such default is not cured or waived within certain grace periods; (iii) certain defaults by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $8,625 during the Amendment Relief Period (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture) or of at least $17,250 thereafter; (iv) certain defaults by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to the Credit Agreement; (v) subject to certain exceptions, the rendering of certain judgments against the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the payment of at least $8,625 during the Amendment Relief Period or of at least $17,250 thereafter, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 90 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; (vi) the occurrence of certain ERISA
events; (vii) the loss of material security interests and liens and guarantees, subject to certain exceptions; (viii) certain payment defaults in excess of $11,500 owned by the Company or any of its subsidiaries under the 2024 Settlement (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture) and other failures to perform any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in the 2024 Settlement that is capable of being cured and that is not cured within 30 days after receipt by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of written notice of such failure; (ix) any note Document (as defined in the Second Lien Indenture) or material provision thereof being declared null and void by a court of competent jurisdiction and (x) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving the Company or any of the Company’s significant subsidiaries.
If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to the Company occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Second Lien Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the Second Lien Trustee, by notice to the Company, or noteholders of at least 30.00% of the aggregate principal amount of Second Lien Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Company and the Second Lien Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Second Lien Notes then outstanding to be due and payable immediately.
Security Agreement
On September 13, 2024, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as the collateral agent for the Second Lien Notes (the “Collateral Agent”). Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors granted the Collateral Agent a second lien security interest in substantially all of their assets, including but not limited to certain accounts, equipment, fixtures and intellectual property, in order to secure the payment and performance of all of the Obligations, as defined in the Second Lien Indenture.
Convertible Senior Notes
On September 27, 2021, the Company issued $140,000 principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture, dated as of September 27, 2021, among the Company, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, BAS Evansville, Inc., as guarantor (the “Guarantor”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Convertible Bond Indenture”). Pursuant to the purchase agreement between the Company and the initial purchaser of the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchaser an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the Notes were first issued, up to an additional $15,000 principal amount of the Notes. The Notes issued on September 27, 2021 included $15,000 principal amount of the Notes issued pursuant to the full exercise by the initial purchaser of such option. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings under a new senior secured term loan facility, to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the Envigo acquisition and related fees and expenses.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, $8,333 of the Notes were cancelled by the Company under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, such that the aggregate principal amount of Notes that remains outstanding is $131,667.
The Notes are the Company’s senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior, unsecured basis, by the Guarantor.
The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2022. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2027, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before April 15, 2027, noteholders have the right to convert their Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after April 15, 2027, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The Company will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, its common shares or a combination of cash and its common shares, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 21.7162 common shares per $1 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $46.05 per common share. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that
constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Convertible Bond Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time.
As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, there were $1,847 and $2,093, respectively, in unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Notes. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the total interest expense was $3,052 at an effective rate of 9.38%, including coupon interest expense of $1,079, accretion expense of $1,728, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $245. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the total interest expense was $2,883 at an effective rate of 9.38%, including coupon interest expense of $1,079, accretion expense of $1,572, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $232.
The Notes are redeemable, in whole and not in part, at the Company’s option at any time on or after October 15, 2024 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per common share of the Company exceeds 130.00% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. The redemption price is a cash amount equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, calling the Notes for redemption pursuant to the provisions described in this paragraph will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, which will result in an increase to the conversion rate in certain circumstances for a specified period of time.
If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Convertible Bond Indenture) occur, then noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common shares.
The Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Convertible Bond Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the Notes, are subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) the Company’s failure to send certain notices under the Convertible Bond Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) the failure by the Company or the Guarantor to comply with certain covenants in the Convertible Bond Indenture relating to the ability of the Company or the Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by the Company or the Guarantor in its other obligations or agreements under the Convertible Bond Indenture or the Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the Convertible Bond Indenture; (v) certain defaults by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20,000; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries for the payment of at least $20,000, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective significant subsidiaries; and (viii) the guarantee of the Notes ceases to be in full force and effect (except as permitted by the Convertible Bond Indenture) or the Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee of the Notes.
If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to the Company or the Guarantor (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the trustee, by notice to the Company, or noteholders of at least 25.00% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Company and the trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may elect, at its option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Convertible Bond Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the Notes.
At issuance, the Company evaluated the convertible feature of the Notes and determined it was required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and did not qualify for equity classification. In subsequent periods, the Notes conversion rights met
all equity classification criteria and the fair value of the embedded derivative was reclassified to additional paid-in-capital. The discount resulting from the initial fair value of the embedded derivative has and will continue to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. Non-cash interest expense during the period primarily related to this discount.
Acquisition-related Debt (Seller Payable)
As part of the acquisition of Orient BioResource Center, Inc. (“OBRC”), the Company agreed to leave in place a payable (the “Seller Payable”) owed by OBRC to Orient Bio, Inc. (the “Seller”) in the amount of $3,700, which the Company determined to have a fair value of $3,325 as of January 27, 2022. The Seller Payable did not bear interest and was originally required to be paid to the Seller 18 months after the closing date of January 27, 2022. The Company has the right to set off against the Seller Payable any amounts that become payable by the Seller on account of indemnification obligations under the purchase agreement. On April 4, 2023, the Company and the Seller entered into a First Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to July 27, 2024. On May 24, 2024, the Company and the Seller entered into a Second Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to July 27, 2025. Further, beginning on July 27, 2024, the note bears interest at a rate of 4.60% per annum. Accrued interest and principal will be paid at the maturity date. On October 24, 2024, the Company and the Seller entered into a Third Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to January 27, 2026. On January 27, 2026, the Company and the Seller entered into a Fourth Amendment to extend the maturity date of the Seller Payable to March 27, 2026. No amendments to the Seller Payable have affected the rights and remedies of any party under the stock purchase agreement, nor did any alter, modify or amend or in any way affect any of the terms and conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the stock purchase agreement. The Seller Payable is subordinated to the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial results are affected by the selection and application of accounting policies and methods and require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting estimates are those that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. There were no changes in the three months ended December 31, 2025 to the application of our critical accounting estimates as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025.
We will continue to evaluate the impact of macroeconomic and external factors, including, but not limited to, tariffs and government funding of research and development, on our critical accounting estimates.
Our critical accounting estimates, as described in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, relate to revenue recognition, income taxes, goodwill and intangible assets, long-lived tangible assets, fair value of financial instruments, pension costs and contingencies.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, please refer to Note 1 - Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements during the three months ended December 31, 2025 that had a significant effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates while conducting normal business operations as a result of ongoing financing activities. As of December 31, 2025, our debt portfolio was reliant on reference rates. Based on our interest rate exposure at December 31, 2025 and assumed debt levels throughout the next 12 months, a one-percentage-point increase in interest rates would result in an estimated $2.7 million increase in loss before income taxes over a one-year period.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We operate on a global basis and have exposure to some foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations for our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
While the financial results of our global activities are reported in U.S. dollars, our foreign subsidiaries typically conduct their operations in their respective local currency. The principal functional currencies of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are the Euro and British Pound.
Fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates of the countries in which we do business will affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. As the U.S. dollar strengthens against other currencies, the value of our non-U.S. revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities, and cash flows will generally decline when reported in U.S. dollars. The impact to net loss as a result of a U.S. dollar strengthening will be partially mitigated by the value of non-U.S. expenses, which will decline when reported in U.S. dollars. As the U.S. dollar weakens versus other currencies, the value of the non-U.S. revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities, and cash flows will generally increase when reported in U.S. dollars.
A hypothetical 10% change in the foreign exchange rates applicable to our business would change our December 31, 2025 cash balance by approximately $0.6 million and our revenue by approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025.
ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms adopted by the SEC, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President (our principal financial officer), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure (“Management”).
Management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, Management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2025 because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.
Previously Identified Material Weaknesses
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
As of September 30, 2022, Management identified the following material weaknesses in internal controls, which continued to exist as of December 31, 2025:
a.Management did not design and maintain effective controls over information technology general controls (ITGCs) for its enterprise resource planning system in which the research models and services business, as well as certain corporate functions, operate and certain ancillary applications that are relevant to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements throughout the year ended September 30, 2022, which resulted in ineffective business process controls (automated and IT-dependent manual controls) that could result in misstatements potentially impacting all of the financial statement accounts and disclosures. Specifically, management did not design and maintain: sufficient user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs and data to appropriate Company personnel; and program change management controls to ensure that information technology (“IT”) program and data changes affecting financial information technology
applications and underlying accounting records are authorized, tested, and implemented appropriately. As a result, business process controls (automated and IT-dependent manual controls) that are dependent on the ineffective ITGCs, or that use data produced from systems impacted by the ineffective ITGCs were deemed ineffective at September 30, 2022, and were not remediated and therefore remained ineffective at December 31, 2025; and
b.Management did not have an adequate process in place to design and test the operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in a timely manner or an adequate process in place to monitor and provide oversight over the completion of its assessment of internal control over financial reporting. As such, we determined that management did not effectively design and implement components of the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (COSO framework) to address all relevant risks of material misstatement, including elements of the control environment, information and communication, control activities and monitoring activities components, relating to: (i) providing sufficient and timely management oversight and ownership over the internal control evaluation process; (ii) hiring and training sufficient personnel to timely support the Company’s internal control objectives; and (iii) performing timely monitoring and oversight to ascertain whether the components of internal control are present and functioning effectively. As a result, controls relevant to all business processes and related controls (including relevant entity level controls) were deemed ineffective at September 30, 2022, and were not remediated and therefore remained ineffective at December 31, 2025.
As of the date of this report, Management has updated the design of several controls and modified process designs in an effort to improve our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the control deficiencies that led to the material weaknesses, described above. Management's efforts have resulted in the effective design and management's testing has determined the effective operation of ITGCs over the enterprise resource planning system in which the discovery and safety assessment business, as well as certain corporate functions, operate and thus deemed remediated for fiscal 2025. Additionally, Management's efforts have resulted in the effective design and management's testing has determined the effective operation of ITGCs in connection with certain third party hosted applications utilized in connection with certain processes (e.g., equity-based compensation, payroll) and thus deemed remediated for fiscal 2025.
Furthermore, Management remediated design and operating deficiencies for some business processes and made progress on the design of controls related to other business processes in connection with our discovery and safety assessment business and certain corporate functions. Management continued to perform testing over the related business processes covering fiscal 2025. While certain controls within the related business processes were tested and determined to be operating effectively throughout fiscal 2025, the material weaknesses related to our business processes over financial reporting cannot be considered completely remediated until the aggregate of the applicable controls, including the ITGCs discussed above, operate effectively for a sufficient period of time. The operating effectiveness of the aggregate of the applicable controls was not deemed sufficient to completely remediate the material weaknesses for fiscal 2025.
However, there remain several controls and processes related to ITGCs and business processes that Management continues to re-assess, including the design of controls and modifying processes to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Management’s remediation efforts have included but are not limited to: (i) hiring additional accounting personnel, (ii) hiring key IT personnel with appropriate technical and internal control-related skillsets, and (iii) utilizing an internal team dedicated to oversight of control and process design. Management’s ongoing remediation efforts include: (i) improving consistency in ITGCs supported by standard operating procedures to govern the authorization, testing and approval of changes to IT systems supporting all of the Company’s internal control processes, including the implementation of certain applications to achieve these operating procedures, (ii) enhancing design and implementation of our control environment, including the expansion of formal accounting and IT policies and procedures, (iii) designing, implementing, reviewing, analyzing, and properly documenting our review and approval controls, as it relates to ITGCs, account reconciliations, journal entries and estimates, and (iv) continuing to provide training to personnel related to ensuring the accuracy and completeness of data used in the performance of the internal controls.
The material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the changes in connection with our remediation activities as described above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025 that have
materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Information pertaining to legal proceedings can be found in Note 11 - Contingencies and Commitments to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS
The risks described in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q from time to time are not the only risks we face. New risk factors or risks that we currently deem immaterial emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor to assess the impact such risk factors might have on our business, financial condition and operating results, or the extent to which any such risk factor or combination of risk factors may impact our business, financial condition and operating results.
You should carefully consider the risks in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, including those disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” appearing in Item 1A of Part I of the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in those risk factors. Realization of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Risks Related to Share Ownership
If we are unable to maintain listing of our securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market, it may be more difficult for our shareholders to sell their securities and may adversely affect the market liquidity of our common shares and our ability to obtain financing to fund our operations.
Our common shares are listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). Nasdaq requires listed issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another reputable national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could materially adversely affect us and our shareholders:
•the liquidity of our common shares;
•the market price of our common shares;
•our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;
•the number of institutional and general investors that will consider investing in our common shares;
•the number of market makers in our common shares;
•the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our common shares; and
•the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in our common shares.
In order to maintain our listing on Nasdaq, we must satisfy minimum financial and other requirements including, without limitation, a requirement that our closing bid price be at least $1.00 per share. On December 31, 2025, we received written notice from Nasdaq stating that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”) because our common shares failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. This letter provides an initial 180 calendar day period, or until June 29, 2026, in which to regain compliance. If we do not regain compliance by July 29, 2026, we may be eligible for an additional 180-day grace period.
We intend to continue to monitor the bid price for our common shares and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, including the potential of seeking shareholder approval of a reverse split of our common shares in order to increase the trading price of our common shares in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. There is no assurance, however, that we will be eligible for an additional compliance period or that any actions we take will resolve the deficiency. If we fail to regain and maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule or we fail to continue to meet all other applicable continued listing requirements for Nasdaq, our
common shares may be delisted, which may adversely affect the market liquidity of our common shares and our ability to obtain financing to fund our operations.
The perception among investors that we are at a heightened risk of delisting could negatively affect the market price and trading volume of our common shares. If our common shares are delisted from Nasdaq, the delisting could: substantially decrease trading in our common shares; adversely affect the market liquidity of our common shares as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws; adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future on acceptable terms, if at all; result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, customers, partners and employees and fewer business development opportunities; and result in limited news and analyst coverage. Additionally, the market price of our common shares may decline further, and shareholders may lose some or all of their investment.

Not applicable.
ITEM 3 – DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
Not applicable.
ITEM 4 – MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
ITEM 5 – OTHER INFORMATION
Trading Arrangements
During the three months ended December 31, 2025, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act or any non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as defined in the SEC’s rules).
Amendment to Credit Agreement
Because we are filing this Quarterly Annual Report on Form 10-Q within four business days after the triggering event, we are making the following disclosure under this Item 5 instead of filing a Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement and Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant:
On February 8, 2026, the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and the lenders party thereto entered into an Eighth Amendment (the “Eighth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 5, 2021 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The Eighth Amendment makes the following changes to the Credit Agreement: (i) waives the maximum First Lien Leverage Ratio covenant for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025; (ii) waives the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025; and (iii) increases the minimum liquidity covenant from $10 million to $30 million for the March 6, 2026 liquidity test date and each liquidity test date thereafter. The liquidity covenant is measured as the average liquidity for the five business day period ending on the last business day of each week, with each such last day being a liquidity test date.
The foregoing summary of the Eighth Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Eighth Amendment filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
