CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022 (this “Quarterly Report”) contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “believe,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “indicate,” “seek,” “should,” “would,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, though not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about the following matters:
our expectations regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business;
our expectations regarding the impact of the conflict in Ukraine on our business;
our ability to realize the benefits from the Business Combination (as defined below);
future financial performance, including any growth or expansion plans and opportunities;
our ability to grow long-term value through, among other things, the continuing performance improvement of our existing operations, execution of a disciplined capital allocation and management of our capital structure;
our expectations regarding future capital expenditures;
cash flow projections;
our ability to maintain a leadership position in any market;
expectations concerning sources of revenue;
expectations about demand for fire retardant products, equipment and services;
the size of the markets we compete in and potential opportunities in such markets or new markets;
expectations concerning certain of our products’ ability to protect life and property as population settlement locations change;
expectations concerning the markets in which we will operate in the coming years and overall economic conditions;
expectations concerning repurchases of our ordinary shares under the Share Repurchase Plan (as defined below);
our beliefs regarding the sufficiency of our current sources of liquidity to fund our future liquidity requirements, our expectations regarding the types of future liquidity requirements and our expectations regarding the availability of future sources of liquidity;
our expectations and beliefs regarding accounting and tax matters; and
the expected outcome of litigation matters and the effect of such claims on business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date of this Quarterly Report, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to those summarized below:
the direct and indirect adverse impact of the novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19 (“COVID-19”) on the global economy and the related governmental regulations and restrictions;
the impact of the conflict in Ukraine on the global economy and our business;
negative or uncertain worldwide economic conditions;
volatility, seasonality and cyclicality in the industries in which we operate;

our substantial dependence on sales to the U.S. Department of Agriculture ("USDA") Forest Service and the state of California and the risk of decreased sales to these customers;

a small number of our customers represent a significant portion of our revenue;
failure to continuously innovate and to provide products that gain market acceptance, which may cause us to be unable to attract new customers or retain existing customers;
improper conduct of, or use of our products, by employees, agents, government contractors or collaborators;
changes in the availability of products from our suppliers on a long-term basis;
production interruptions or shutdowns, which could increase our operating or capital expenditures or negatively impact the supply of our products resulting in reduced sales;

increases in supply and raw material costs, supply shortages, long lead times for components or supply changes;

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization and General
Perimeter Solutions, SA, (“PSSA”), a public company limited by shares (société anonyme) was incorporated on June 21, 2021 under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg for the purpose of effecting a business combination. PSSA is headquartered in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with global operations in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. PSSA's ordinary shares, nominal value, $1.00 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), are listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and trade under the symbol "PRM."
Business Combination
On November 9, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), PSSA consummated the transactions contemplated by the business combination (the “Business Combination”) with EverArc Holdings Limited, the former parent company of PSSA ("EverArc"), SK Invictus Holdings, S.à r.l., ("SK Holdings"), SK Invictus Intermediate S.à r.l., ("SK Intermediate"), doing business under the name Perimeter Solutions ("Perimeter" or "Perimeter Solutions") and EverArc (BVI) Merger Sub Limited, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PSSA (the "Merger Sub") pursuant to a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) dated June 15, 2021. The term the “Company” refers to PSSA and its consolidated subsidiaries, including SK Intermediate and Perimeter after the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”). Upon the acquisition of SK Intermediate, PSSA was determined to be the legal and accounting acquirer (the "Successor") and SK Intermediate was deemed to be the accounting predecessor (the "Predecessor").
Business Operations
Perimeter Solutions is a global solutions provider for the fire safety and oil additives industries. Approximately 73% of the Company's 2021 annual revenues were derived in the United States, approximately 13% in Europe, approximately 7% in Canada and approximately 2% in Mexico, with the remaining approximately 5% spread across various other countries. The Company’s business is organized and managed in two reporting segments: Fire Safety and Oil Additives.
The Fire Safety business is a formulator and manufacturer of fire management products that help the Company’s customers combat various types of fires, including wildland, structural, flammable liquids and other types of fires. The Company’s Fire Safety business also offers specialized equipment and services, typically in conjunction with its fire management products, to support its customers’ firefighting operations. The Company’s specialized equipment includes air base retardant storage, mixing, and delivery equipment; mobile retardant bases; retardant ground application units; mobile foam equipment; and equipment that it custom designs and manufactures to meet specific customer needs. The Company’s specialized service network is designed to meet the emergency resupply needs of air tanker bases and other customer locations in North America and globally. Significant end markets primarily include government-related entities and are dependent on concessions, licenses, and permits granted by the respective governments and commercial customers around the world.
The Oil Additives business produces and sells Phosphorus Pentasulfide ("P2S5") primarily used in the preparation of lubricant additives, including a family of compounds called Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphates (“ZDDP”) that provide anti-wear protection to engine components. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications. Significant end markets are primarily producers of engine oil additives.
Global Economic Environment
Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
In February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. While Perimeter has limited exposure in Russia and Ukraine, the Company continues to monitor any broader impact in the global economy, including with respect to inflation, supply chains and fuel prices. The full impact of the conflict on the Company’s business and financial results remains uncertain and will depend on the severity and duration of the conflict and its impact on regional and global economic conditions.

Table of Contents
Inflationary Cost Environment
During fiscal 2021 and continuing into the current fiscal year, global commodity and labor markets experienced significant inflationary pressures attributable to economic recovery and supply chain issues associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Perimeter is subject to inflationary pressures with respect to raw materials, labor and transportation. Accordingly, the Company continues to take actions with its customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure.
Ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic
The pandemic caused by an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19 that began around December 2019 introduced significant volatility to the global health and economic environment, including millions of confirmed COVID-19 cases, business slowdowns or shutdowns, government challenges and market volatility throughout 2020 and has continued into 2022.
While the ongoing impact from the COVID-19 pandemic is beginning to moderate and business conditions ease, disruptions to supply chains, transportation efficiency, raw materials and labor availability continue to persist. The exact pace and timing of the economic recovery remains uncertain and is expected to continue to be uneven depending on factors such as trends in the number of COVID-19 infections (e.g., impact of new variants of COVID-19 resurfacing), the continued efficacy of vaccines, particularly against any newly emerging variants of COVID-19 and easing of quarantines among other factors. As the consequences of the pandemic and adverse impact to the global economy continue to evolve, the future adverse impact on the Company's business and financial statements remains subject to significant uncertainty as of the date of this filing.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the entire fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.
Perimeter Solutions is an emerging growth company ("EGC") as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not EGC. As an EGC, the Company has elected, under Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.

Table of Contents
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, stock options, founder advisory fees, contingent earn-out liability and realizability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will require lessees to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet for all leases, including operating leases, with a term of greater than 12 months. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which adds a transition option permitting entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at its adoption date instead of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. Under this transition option, comparative reporting would not be required, and the provisions of the standard would be applied prospectively to leases in effect at the date of adoption.
The Company has determined its portfolio of leased assets and is completing its review of all related contracts to determine the impact the adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize right of use assets and lease liabilities for certain commitments related to real estate, vehicles, and field equipment that are currently accounted for as operating leases. To track these lease arrangements and facilitate compliance with this ASU, the Company is implementing a third-party lease accounting software solution and is in the process of designing processes and internal controls.
The adoption of this ASU will increase asset and liability balances on the consolidated balance sheets due to the required recognition of right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities and will result in changes to the Company’s existing accounting policies, business processes, and internal controls. The Company plans to elect the available package practical expedients provided in the standard and adopt Topic 842 as of January 1, 2022 at December 31, 2022 on its Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022, using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11 and continues to assess potential effects of the standard.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-11. The amendments require an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects current expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to determine credit loss estimates. The new standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company expects to adopt the new standard on January 1, 2023 and continues to assess potential effects of the standard.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify U.S. GAAP for other areas of ASC 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and in January 2021 issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. These ASUs provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to facilitate the market transition from existing reference rates, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which is being phased out, to alternate reference rates, such as Secured Overnight
11

Table of Contents
Financing Rate (“SOFR”). These standards are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. The Company continues to evaluate the optional relief guidance provided within these ASUs and the impact of adopting these standards on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
3. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
Successor
Business Combination – Perimeter Solutions
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, EverArc entered into an escrow agreement with SK Holdings and Wilmington Trust, N.A., a national banking association, as escrow agent, which provided that approximately $7.6 million of the cash consideration payable pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement be held in escrow pending a determination of the post-Closing purchase price adjustments under the Business Combination Agreement.
On March 3, 2022, the post-Closing purchase price adjustments under the Business Combination Agreement were finalized. Approximately $7.6 million held in escrow was released and an additional $1.6 million related to the difference in estimated and actual working capital as of the Closing Date was also paid to SK Holdings.
Predecessor
Budenheim Asset Acquisition
On March 2, 2021, the Company purchased all of the wildfire retardant and foam assets of Budenheim Iberica, S.L.U ("Budenheim"). The asset purchase agreement provided for approximately $3.6 million in cash to be paid at closing. The Budenheim acquisition expands the Company’s access to new markets and is expected to result in additional revenue within the Fire Safety segment. The Company performed a purchase price allocation, where the Company allocated $3.2 million to goodwill in the predecessor entity. Other amounts allocated to the individual assets and liabilities included within the balance sheet were not material.
For segment reporting purposes, the results of operations and assets from the above acquisition have been included in the Company’s Fire Safety segment since the acquisition date. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, sales, earnings related to the operations consisting of the assets and liabilities and direct costs related to Budenheim were not material. Pro forma financial information has not been presented for this acquisition as the net effects were neither significant nor material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Revolving Credit Facility
On November 9, 2021, SK Invictus Intermediate II S.à r.l., a private limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (“SK Intermediate II”), as borrower, entered into a five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which provides for a senior secured Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million.
The Revolving Credit Facility matures on November 9, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $20.0 million swingline sub-facility and a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows SK Intermediate II to increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $143.0 million and (ii) 100.00% of consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the most recent four-quarter period (minus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of certain ratio debt permitted to be incurred thereunder). All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties, subject to customary exceptions.
Solely to the extent that on the last day of the applicable fiscal quarter, the utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit and up to $10.0 million of undrawn letters of credit) exceeds 40% of the aggregate commitments, the Revolving Credit Facility requires compliance on a quarterly basis with a maximum secured net leverage ratio of 7.50:1.00.
The Revolving Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and each of SK Intermediate II’s existing and future wholly-owned material restricted subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions, and is secured by a first priority lien, subject to certain permitted liens, on substantially all of SK Intermediate II’s and each of the guarantors’ existing and future property and assets, subject to customary exceptions.
Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Revolving Credit Facility were $2.3 million, which is carried as a long-term asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and is amortized on a straight-line over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility and included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
As of March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants, including the financial covenants.
Senior Notes
On the Closing Date, SK Intermediate II assumed $675.0 million principal amount of 5.00% senior secured notes due October 30, 2029 ("Senior Notes") issued by EverArc Escrow S.à r.l. (“Escrow Issuer”), a newly-formed limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a wholly owned subsidiary of EverArc under an indenture dated as of October 22, 2021 (“Indenture”). The Senior Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.00%. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing on April 30, 2022.
The Senior Notes are general, secured, senior obligations of SK Intermediate II; rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of SK Intermediate II (including, without limitation, the Revolving Credit Facility); and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of

Table of Contents
SK Intermediate II that is not secured by the collateral. The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by all of SK Intermediate II’s existing or future restricted subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) that guarantee the Revolving Credit Facility. The Senior Notes contain certain covenants limiting SK Intermediate II’s ability and the ability of the restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) to, under certain circumstances, prepay subordinated indebtedness, pay distributions, redeem stock or make certain restricted investments; incur indebtedness; create liens on the SK Intermediate II’s’ assets to secure debt; restrict dividends, distributions or other payments; enter into transactions with affiliates; designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of assets, including equity interests of restricted subsidiaries; effect a consolidation or merger; and change the Company’s line of business.
Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Senior Notes were $11.0 million, which were capitalized and will be amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Senior Notes and included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The unamortized portion of the deferred financing costs is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the Senior Notes which have been recorded as long-term debt, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Redeemable Preferred Shares
In connection with the Business Combination, the Company issued 10 million redeemable preferred shares of PSSA (“Redeemable Preferred Shares"), nominal value $10 per share, valued at $100.0 million. The Redeemable Preferred Shares are entitled to a preferred annual cumulative right to a dividend equal to 6.50% of its nominal value. The preferred dividend will generally be paid 40.00% in cash and 60.00% in kind each year within three business days following the Company's annual general meeting. Holders of the Redeemable Preferred Shares generally have no voting rights.
The Company, under its articles of association (the "Articles") is mandatorily required to redeem the Redeemable Preferred Shares at any time prior to the earliest of (i) six months following the latest maturity date of the above-mentioned Senior Notes, (ii) nine years after the date of issuance of the Redeemable Preferred Shares or (iii) upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the Company’s Articles. Due to the fact that the Redeemable Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable, the Redeemable Preferred Shares are classified as a liability in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and $1.6 million of dividends on these Redeemable Preferred Shares for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is recorded as interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). At March 31, 2022, $1.5 million of preferred dividends were in arrears.
The Redeemable Preferred Shares have an aggregate liquidation preference of $100.0 million, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and is senior to the Ordinary Shares with respect to dividends and with respect to dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company. At March 31, 2022, the redemption price was $101.5 million.
Predecessor
On March 28, 2018, Invictus U.S., LLC and SK Intermediate II, two wholly owned subsidiaries of SK Intermediate, entered into credit agreements providing for committed credit facilities of $815.0 million, a substantial portion of which was used to fund the acquisition of the Company’s assets.
Pursuant to the credit agreements, the Company’s First Lien Credit Facility (the "First Lien") consisted of a $545.0 million U.S. dollar term loan with a maturity of March 28, 2025, a multicurrency revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), and a $16.0 million extension on the original term loan. The Second Lien Credit Facility (the "Second Lien") consisted of a $155.0 million U.S. dollar term loan with a maturity of March 28, 2026. The Revolver provided for maximum borrowings of $100.0 million with a maturity of March 28, 2023. Interest was based on the same terms as the First Lien and was subject to a 0.50% unused commitment fee. The Revolver also contained a $10.0 million standby letter of credit sub-facility and a $10.0 million swing line sub-facility.
On the Closing Date, $541.5 million outstanding under the First Lien and $155.0 million outstanding under the Second Lien were repaid and the related unamortized debt issue costs of $11.0 million was charged to interest expense.

7. INCOME TAXES
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, U.S. state and local tax and tax in foreign jurisdictions. The Company estimates its annual effective tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was (37.10)% and 22.51%, respectively. The primary differences between the effective tax rate and the amount computed by applying the Luxembourg statutory rate of 24.94% are related to losses not expected to be benefited in certain jurisdictions that have a valuation allowance, permanently non-deductible compensation, withholding taxes accrued on unremitted earnings and the impact of foreign tax rate differences.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. While the Company expects to realize the remaining net deferred tax assets, changes in future taxable income or in tax laws may alter this expectation and result in future increases to the valuation allowance. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 primarily relates to net operating loss and interest deduction limitation carryforwards that, in the judgment of the Company, are not more likely than not to be realized.
The Company evaluates its tax positions and recognizes only tax benefits that, more likely than not, will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50.0% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. The Company did not have any uncertain tax benefits as of March 31, 2022 and 2021. As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions and no amounts had been recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
The Company files income tax returns in Luxembourg, U.S. federal and state jurisdictions, and other foreign jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2022, tax years 2018 through 2020 are subject to examination by the tax authorities in the U.S. The Alberta, Canada audit concluded as of January 12, 2022 and no material adjustments were identified.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various claims, actions, and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including a number of matters related to the aqueous film forming foam litigation consolidated in the District of South Carolina multi-district litigation and other similar matters pending in other jurisdictions in the United States. The Company’s exposure to losses, if any, is not considered probable or reasonably estimable at this time.
Commitments
The Company has a supply agreement to purchase elemental phosphorus (P4) from a supplier through 2023. The contract price is tied to the contract year cost times a multiplier, subject to a market-driven benchmark price adjustment, which is generally settled once per year. The Company did not purchase the anticipated minimum pounds of P4 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. However, the Company has no obligation to record a liability, as there is no financial penalty owed to the vendor. Costs incurred under this supply agreement were $14.0 million and $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

9. EQUITY
The Company’s authorized share capital is $4,100.0 million, consisting of 4.0 billion Ordinary Shares with a nominal value of $1.00 per share and 10.0 million Redeemable Preferred Shares with a nominal value of $10.00 per share. Each Ordinary Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote.
Due to the fact that the Redeemable Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable, the Redeemable Preferred Shares are classified as a liability on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As of March 31, 2022, there were 163,234,542 Ordinary Shares, 33,843,440 warrants and 10,000,000 Redeemable Preferred Shares issued and outstanding and the Company had not made any repurchases under its share repurchase plan.
10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
2021 Equity Plan
In connection with the Business Combination, the Company's board of directors adopted, and its shareholders approved, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”). A total of 31,900,000 Ordinary Shares are authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan which provides for the grant of stock options (either incentive or non-qualified), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance shares, performance share units and other share-based awards with respect to the Ordinary Shares. Shares associated with underlying awards that are expired, forfeited, or otherwise terminated without the delivery of shares, or are settled in cash, and any shares tendered to or withheld by the Company for the payment of an exercise price or for tax withholding will again be available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company granted 175,000 performance-based non-qualified stock options ("PBNQSO") that vest based on the achievement of certain performance goals for fiscal years 2022-2026 (the “5-Year Option”) to its independent directors under the 2021 Equity Plan. As of March 31, 2022 there were 8,938,754 PBNQSO’s outstanding. The exercise prices of these PBNQSOs ranged from $10.00 to $14.00 per Ordinary Share and expire ten years from the grant date.
Non-cash share-based compensation expense recognized by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $5.7 million. Compensation expense is recognized based upon probability assessments of PBNQSOs that are expected to vest in future periods. Such probability assessments are subject to revision and, therefore, unrecognized compensation expense is subject to future changes in estimate. As of March 31, 2022, there was approximately $45.4 million of total

unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested PBNQSOs expected to vest, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.
Founder Advisory Amounts
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Company assumed the advisory agreement entered into on December 12, 2019 by EverArc ("Founder Advisory Agreement") with EverArc Founders, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EverArc Founder Entity"), which is owned and operated by William N. Thorndike, Jr., W. Nicholas Howley, Tracy Britt Cool, Vivek Raj and Haitham Khouri ("EverArc Founders"), pursuant to which the EverArc Founder Entity, for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, is entitled to receive both a fixed amount (the “Fixed Annual Advisory Amount”) and a variable amount (the “Variable Annual Advisory Amount,” each an “Advisory Amount” and collectively, the “Advisory Amounts”) until the years ending December 31, 2027 and 2031, respectively.
The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares. Because up to 50% of the aggregate shares could be settled through a cash payment, 50% are classified as a liability and the remaining 50% is classified within equity. For Advisory Amounts classified within equity, the Company does not subsequently remeasure the fair value. For the Advisory Amounts classified as a liability, the Company remeasures the fair value at each reporting date, accordingly, the compensation expense recorded by the Company in the future will depend upon changes in the fair value of the liability-classified Advisory Amounts.
As of March 31, 2022, the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount was determined to be $308.0 million using a Monte Carlo simulation model and the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount was calculated to be $169.2 million based on the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares of $11.97.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized a reduction in share-based compensation expense related to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $59.8 million.
11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value Measurement
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility accrues interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin. The carrying amount of this floating rate debt approximates fair value based upon the respective interest rates adjusting with market rate adjustments. The carrying amount of the Company's Senior Notes and Redeemable Preferred Shares also approximates fair value.
The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Total liabilities$114,276 $ $271,492 $385,768 
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the contingent earn-out related to the May 2020 purchase of LaderaTech, Inc. (“LaderaTech”) is measured on a recurring basis using Level 3 fair value inputs. The earn-out is based on 20% of gross profits upon achieving a revenue threshold exceeding $5.0 million through December 31, 2026 and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Significant changes in the projected revenue, projected gross margin, or discount rate would have a material impact on the fair value of the contingent consideration.
There were no material adjustments to the Company’s estimated fair value of contingent earn-out as of March 31, 2022 as post-acquisition activity has remained in line with the Company’s initial projections for developing the technology. See Note 10, “Share-Based Compensation” for discussion of the fair value estimation on the founders advisory fees payable - related party.

The QPL payment was also measured on a recurring basis using Level 3 fair value inputs and was valued using a scenario-based method with inputs based upon the probability and timing of achieving the QPL listing. The Company made the QPL payment of $3.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. As of March 31, 2021, the contingent earn-out had an estimated fair value of $17.0 million and the QPL was valued at $2.8 million.
12. RELATED PARTIES
Successor
On November 9, 2021, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company, EverArc and the EverArc Founder Entity entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Founder Assignment Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company assumed, and agreed to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge in full, all of EverArc’s liabilities and obligations under the Founder Advisory Agreement.
In exchange for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, the EverArc Founder Entity is entitled to receive both the Variable Annual Advisory Amount and the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount from the Company.
The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares.
For 2021, the average price was $13.63 per Ordinary Share, resulting in a total Variable Annual Advisory Amount for 2021 of 7,525,906 Ordinary Shares, or a value of $102.5 million (the “2021 Variable Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity also received the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount which was equal to 1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding on the Closing Date: 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares or a value of $32.1 million, based on average price of $13.63 per Ordinary Share (the “2021 Fixed Amount” and together with the 2021 Variable Amount, the “2021 Advisory Amounts”). Per the Founder Advisory Agreement, the EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 60% of the 2021 Advisory Amounts in Ordinary Shares (5,952,992 Ordinary Shares) and approximately 40% of the Advisory Amounts in cash ($53.5 million). The 2021 Advisory Amounts of $134.7 million was disbursed, 60% in Ordinary Shares and 40% in cash, to the EverArc Founder Entity on February 15, 2022.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount. The Company calculated the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amounts using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days. These approaches resulted in fair values of $308.0 million for the Variable Annual Advisory Amount and $169.2 million for the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount, of which 50% may be paid in cash and recorded as a liability and the remaining 50% would be settled in Ordinary Shares. While the entire instrument is subject to the fair value calculation described above, the amount classified and recorded as equity remains consistent while the amount classified and recorded as a liability is updated each period. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized a reduction in share-based compensation expense related to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $59.8 million.
The Company continues to have a purchase and sales agreement with the former owners of the original Invictus business (the "Sellers") for specific raw materials. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company purchased $0.4 million from the Sellers in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company sold raw materials at cost of $5.6 million to the Sellers and paid $0.1 million to lease real property from the sellers of First Response FireRescue, LLC, River City Fabrication, LLC, and H&S Transport, LLC (collectively, "Ironman").

Predecessor
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company purchased $0.2 million from the Sellers in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company sold raw materials at cost of $1.3 million to the Sellers. Sales of raw materials are recorded net as “the agent” since the Company does not have the following: a) primary responsibility for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified good, b) inventory risk before the

SK Capital Partners IV-A, L.P. and SK Capital Partners IV-A, L.P. (collectively, the “Sponsor”) provided board oversight, operational and strategic support, and assistance with business development in return for a quarterly management fee. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 total management consulting fees and expenses were $0.3 million and are presented in other operating expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
The Company entered into multiple lease arrangements for real property with the sellers of Ironman in 2020 that the Company continues to occupy post-acquisition. The Company paid $0.1 million in rent and related expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

In addition, 8.1 million Ordinary Shares equivalent warrants were excluded from the diluted earning per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
15. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s products and operations are managed and reported in two operating segments: Fire Safety and Oil Additives.
The Fire Safety segment manufactures and sells fire retardant and firefighting foam products, as well as specialized equipment and services typically offered in conjunction with these retardant and foam products.
The Oil Additives segment produces P2S5 primarily used in the preparation of lubricant additives, including a family of compounds called ZDDP, which is considered an essential component in the formulation of engine oils – its main function is to provide anti-wear protection to engine components.
Interest income, interest expense, other income (expense) and certain corporate operating expenses are neither allocated to the segments nor included in the measures of segment performance by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”). The corporate category is not considered to be a segment. The CODM is the Company's CEO.
The Company’s CODM uses the segment net sales and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the ongoing performance of the Company’s business segments and to allocate resources. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted on a consistent basis for certain non-recurring or unusual items in a balanced manner and on a segment basis. These non-recurring or unusual items may include acquisition and integration related costs, management fees and other non-recurring items.

Overview
Perimeter Solutions, S.A. (“PSSA”), a public company limited by shares (société anonyme) was incorporated on June 21, 2021 under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg for the purpose of effecting a business combination. PSSA is headquartered in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with global operations in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. PSSA's ordinary shares, nominal value, $1.00 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), are listed on New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and trade under the symbol "PRM."
On November 9, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), PSSA consummated the transactions contemplated by the business combination (the “Business Combination”) with EverArc Holdings Limited, the former parent company of PSSA ("EverArc"), SK Invictus Holdings, S.à r.l., ("SK Holdings"), SK Invictus Intermediate S.à r.l., ("SK Intermediate"), doing business under the name Perimeter Solutions ("Perimeter" or "Perimeter Solutions") and EverArc (BVI) Merger Sub Limited, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PSSA (the "Merger Sub") pursuant to a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) dated June 15, 2021. The term the “Company” refers to PSSA and its consolidated subsidiaries, including SK Intermediate and Perimeter, after the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”). Upon the acquisition of SK Intermediate, PSSA was determined to be the legal and accounting acquirer (the "Successor") and SK Intermediate was deemed to be the accounting predecessor (the "Predecessor").
We are a global solutions provider for the fire safety and oil additives industries. Approximately 73% of our 2021 annual revenues were derived in the United States, approximately 13% in Europe, approximately 7% in Canada and approximately 2% in Mexico, with the remaining approximately 5% spread across various other countries. Our business is organized and managed in two reporting segments: Fire Safety and Oil Additives.
The Fire Safety business is a formulator and manufacturer of fire management products that help our customers combat various types of fires, including wildland, structural, flammable liquids and other types of fires. Our Fire Safety business also offers specialized equipment and services, typically in conjunction with its fire management products, to support its customers’ firefighting operations. Our specialized equipment includes air base retardant storage, mixing, and delivery equipment; mobile retardant bases; retardant ground application units; mobile foam equipment; and equipment that we custom design and manufacture to meet specific customer needs. Our service network can meet the emergency resupply needs of over 150 air tanker bases in North America, as well as many other customer locations globally. The segment is built on the premise of superior technology, exceptional responsiveness to our customers’ needs, and a “never-fail” service network. Significant end markets primarily include government-related entities and are dependent on concessions, licenses, and permits granted by the respective governments and commercial customers around the world.
The Oil Additives business produces and sells Phosphorus Pentasulfide ("P2S5") primarily used in the preparation of lubricant additives, including a family of compounds called Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphates (“ZDDP”) that provide anti-wear protection to engine components. In addition, they inhibit oxidation of the oil by scavenging free radicals that initiate oil breakdown and sludge formulation, resulting in better and longer engine function. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications. Significant end markets are primarily producers of engine oil additives.

Known Trends and Uncertainties
Growth in Fire Safety
We believe that our Fire Safety segment benefits from several secular growth drivers, including increasing fire severity, as measured by higher acres burned and longer fire seasons, a growing wildland urban interface, and increasing airtanker capacity. We believe that these trends are prevalent in North America, as well as globally.
We are also attempting to grow our fire prevention and protection business, which is primarily focused on high hazard industries like electrical utilities, railroads and transportation agencies. Fire prevention products can be used to prevent fire ignitions and protect property from potential fire danger by providing proactive retardant treatment in high-risk areas. Treating these areas ahead of the fire season can potentially stop ignitions from equipment failures or sparks. Our new Phos-Chek Fortify product, applied before or early in the fire season, can provide protection all season. In addition, Phos-Chek Fortify can proactively be applied to protect high value assets and critical infrastructure from the danger of wildfire.
We expect these trends to continue for the remainder of 2022 and beyond and drive growth in demand for fire retardant products. We have invested and intend to continue investing in the expansion our fire safety business through acquisitions in order to further grow our global customer base. Acquisitions for all periods presented are described in Note 3, “Business Acquisitions,” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Weather Conditions and Climate Trends
Our business is highly dependent on the needs of government agencies to suppress fires. As such, our financial condition and results of operations are significantly impacted by weather as well as environmental and other factors affecting climate change, which impact the number and severity of fires in any given year. Historically, sales of our products have been higher in the summer season of each fiscal year due to weather patterns which are generally correlated to a higher prevalence of wildfires. This is in part offset by the disbursement of our operations in both the northern and southern hemispheres, where the summer seasons alternate.
Fire severity in the United States increased significantly in 2021 and 2020, compared to 2019. This resulted in increased net sales in each of 2021 and 2020 compared to 2019, which experienced low fire activity due to cold and wet conditions in the key geographic regions, particularly the Western United States.
Global Economic Environment
Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
In February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. While we have limited exposure in Russia and Ukraine, we continue to monitor any broader impact in the global economy, including with respect to inflation, supply chains and fuel prices. The full impact of the conflict on our business and financial results remains uncertain and will depend on the severity and duration of the conflict and its impact on regional and global economic conditions.
Inflationary Cost Environment
During fiscal 2021 and continuing into the current fiscal year, global commodity and labor markets experienced significant inflationary pressures attributable to economic recovery and supply chain issues associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. We are subject to inflationary pressures with respect to raw materials, labor and transportation. Accordingly, we continue to take actions with our customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, we cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure.
Ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic
The pandemic caused by an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19 that began around December 2019 introduced significant volatility to the global health and economic environment, including
27

Table of Contents
millions of confirmed COVID-19 cases, business slowdowns or shutdowns, government challenges and market volatility throughout 2020 and has continued into 2022.
While the ongoing impact from the COVID-19 pandemic is beginning to moderate and business conditions ease, disruptions to supply chains, transportation efficiency, raw materials and labor availability continue to persist. The exact pace and timing of the economic recovery remains uncertain and is expected to continue to be uneven depending on factors such as trends in the number of COVID-19 infections (e.g., impact of new variants of COVID-19 resurfacing), the continued efficacy of vaccines, particularly against any newly emerging variants of COVID-19 and easing of quarantines among other factors. As the consequences of the pandemic and adverse impact to the global economy continue to evolve, the future adverse impact on our business and financial statements remains subject to significant uncertainty as of the date of this filing.

Net Sales. Net sales increased by $23.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The growth in net sales was primarily due to $13.0 million higher sales generated by the Oil Additives segment, of which $8.5 million was in the Americas and $4.5 million was in Europe. Net sales in the Fire Safety segment increased by $10.8 million, with sales of fire retardants and fire suppressants contributing $5.5 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Fire retardant sales increased by $3.3 million in the Americas and $2.4 million in Asia Pacific due to increased wildfire activity, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in Europe due to decreased wildfire activity. Fire suppressant sales increased $0.7 million in the Americas and $1.5 million in Asia Pacific as a result of higher fluorine free foam concentrates sales. Fire suppressant sales in Europe increased by $3.1 million primarily due to improved market share and geographic reach.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased by $19.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily as a result of a $15.8 million increase in the Fire Safety segment due to an increase of $9.3 million in amortization of inventory step-up related to Business Combination, $4.4

Table of Contents
million related to increased net sales and raw material and manufacturing costs and $2.1 million in labor and share-based compensation expense. The $3.9 million increase in the Oil Additives segment was due to a $3.4 million increase related to increased net sales and raw material and manufacturing costs and a $0.5 million increase in labor and share-based compensation expense.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily driven by a $5.8 million increase in personnel related and share-based compensation expenses, $1.6 million increase in insurance costs, $1.4 million increase in logistics expenses, $1.2 million increase in transaction costs and $0.9 million increase in accounting, legal and consulting expenses.
Founder advisory fees - related party. The reduction in founder advisory fees - related party of $59.8 million represents a decrease in the fair value of the liability-classified variable and fixed annual advisory amounts as of March 31, 2022, including a $46.2 million reduction relating to the decrease in the fair value of the variable annual advisory amount and a $13.6 million reduction relating to the decrease in the fair value of the fixed annual advisory amount. The variable annual advisory amount at the end of each reporting period is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model and the fixed annual advisory amount is valued using a period end volume weighted average closing share price of Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to dividends on the 6.50% redeemable preferred shares of PSSA (“Redeemable Preferred Shares") of $1.6 million, included in interest expense, and higher interest rates on outstanding debt compared to the same period in 2021.
Unrealized Foreign Currency Loss. Unrealized foreign currency loss decreased by $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency rate changes during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
Income Tax Benefit. Income tax benefit increased by $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is due primarily to changes in earnings in jurisdictions that were not covered by a valuation allowance and the impact of non-deductible compensation and accrued withholding taxes on the annualized effective tax rate.
Business Segments
We use segment net sales and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), financial measures that are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), to evaluate our operating performance by segment, for business planning purposes and to allocate resources. The total segment Adjusted EBITDA in the table below represents a non-GAAP measure and provides management, investors and analysts with comparative information for evaluating the Company in relation to other similar companies providing corresponding non-U.S. GAAP financial measures or that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. The following table provides information for our net sales and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

(4)Adjustment to reflect deferred consideration paid with respect to a 2019 acquisition.
Adjusted EBITDA for our Fire Safety segment increased by $1.3 million to $(3.3) million. The increase was primarily due to higher sales offset by higher cost of goods sold and operating expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA for our Oil Additives segment increased by $7.6 million to $15.3 million. The increase was primarily due to higher sales offset by higher cost of goods sold and operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have historically funded our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and the issuance of debt and equity securities. However, future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, including the length and severity of the fire season, growth of the wildland urban interface and the availability of air tanker capacity, all of which could negatively impact revenues, earnings and cash flows, and potentially our liquidity if we do not moderate our expenditures accordingly. As of March 31, 2022, our cash requirements, cash flows, indebtedness and available credit is discussed below.
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents of approximately $153.5 million as of March 31, 2022, net cash flows generated from operations and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our current capital expenditures, working capital, and debt service requirements for at least 12 months from the filing date of this Quarterly Report. As of March 31, 2022, we expect our remaining fiscal year 2022 capital expenditure budget of approximately $8.3 million, will cover both our maintenance and growth capital expenditures. We may also utilize borrowings under other various financing sources available to us, including the issuance of equity and/or debt securities through public offerings or private placements, to fund our acquisitions, the Advisory Amounts and long-term liquidity needs. Our ability to complete future offerings of equity or debt securities and the timing of these offerings will depend upon various factors including prevailing market conditions and our financial condition.

Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities was $70.9 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the cash used in operations primarily resulted from a founders advisory fee payment of $53.5 million and the negative impact of working capital offset by an increase in payment-in-kind of dividend on Redeemable Preferred Shares, share-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition related inventory step-up and a net income due to change in fair value of liability classified founder advisory fees - related party. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the cash used in operations was primarily due to a loss offset by positive working capital impact.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $3.0 million and $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we purchased property and equipment of $1.3 million and paid an additional $1.7 million to SK Holdings upon finalization of the difference in estimated and actual working capital as of the Closing Date under the Business Combination Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we purchased property and equipment of $1.7 million and paid $3.6 million in cash related to the acquisitions of Budenheim Iberica, S.L.U.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by (used in) in financing activities was $0.5 million and $(1.4) million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the cash provided of $0.5 million was primarily due to proceeds from exercise of warrants. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the cash used related to repayments of $1.4 million on long-term debt.
Revolving Credit Facility
On November 9, 2021, SK Invictus Intermediate II S.à r.l., a private limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (“SK Intermediate II”), entered into a five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million.
The Revolving Credit Facility matures on November 9, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $20.0 million swingline sub-facility and a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows SK Intermediate II to increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $143.0 million and (ii) 100.00% of consolidated EBITDA for the most recent four-quarter period (minus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of certain ratio debt permitted to be incurred thereunder). All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties, subject to certain exceptions.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) an applicable margin, plus (ii) at SK Intermediate II’s option, either (x) London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) determined by reference to the cost of funds
31

Table of Contents
for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, adjusted for certain additional costs (but which will not be less than a 0.00% LIBOR floor) or (y) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the prime commercial lending rate published by the Wall Street Journal, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (c) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% and (d) a minimum floor of 1.00%. The applicable margin is 3.25% in the case of LIBOR-based loans and 2.25% in the case of base rate-based loans, with two step downs of 0.25% each based upon the achievement of certain leverage ratios.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants, including the financial covenants.
Senior Notes
On November 9, 2021, SK Intermediate II assumed $675.0 million principal amount of 5.00% senior secured notes due October 30, 2029 ("Senior Notes") issued by EverArc Escrow S.à r.l. (“Escrow Issuer”), a newly-formed limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a wholly owned subsidiary of EverArc under an indenture dated as of October 22, 2021 (“Indenture”). The Senior Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.00%. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing on April 30, 2022.
The Senior Notes are general, secured, senior obligations of SK Intermediate II; rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of SK Intermediate II (including, without limitation, the Revolving Credit Facility); and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of SK Intermediate II that is not secured by the collateral.
For additional information about our long-term debt, refer to Note 6, “Long-Term Debt and Redeemable Preferred Shares,” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Share Repurchase Plan
On December 7, 2021, subject to the approval of our shareholders, the Company’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase plan (“the Share Repurchase Plan”). Under the Share Repurchase Plan, we and our subsidiaries are authorized to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at any time during the next 24 months or, if different, such other timeframe as approved by our shareholders. As of March 31, 2022, we had not repurchased shares under our Share Repurchase Plan.
Founder Advisory Agreement
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the advisory agreement entered into on December 12, 2019 by EverArc ("Founder Advisory Agreement") with EverArc Founders, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EverArc Founder Entity"), which is owned and operated by William N. Thorndike, Jr., W. Nicholas Howley, Tracy Britt Cool, Vivek Raj and Haitham Khouri ("EverArc Founders"), pursuant to which the EverArc Founder Entity, for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, is entitled to receive both a fixed amount (the “Fixed Annual Advisory Amount”) and a variable amount (the “Variable Annual Advisory Amount,” each an “Advisory Amount” and collectively, the “Advisory Amounts”) until the years ending December 31, 2027 and 2031, respectively. Under the Founder Advisory Agreement, at the election of the EverArc Founder Entity, at least 50% of the Advisory Amounts will be paid in Ordinary Shares and the remainder in cash.
For 2021, the average price was $13.63 per Ordinary Share, resulting in a total Variable Annual Advisory Amount for 2021 of 7,525,906 Ordinary Shares, or a value of $102.5 million (the “2021 Variable Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity also received the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount which was equal to 1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding on the Closing Date: 2,357,061 ordinary shares or a value of $32.1 million, based on average price of $13.63 per Ordinary Share (the “2021 Fixed Amount” and together with the 2021 Variable Amount, the “2021 Advisory Amounts”). Per the Founder Advisory Agreement, the EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 60% of the 2021 Advisory Amounts in Ordinary Shares (5,952,992 Ordinary Shares) and approximately 40% of the Advisory Amounts in cash ($53.5 million). On February 15, 2022, the Company issued 5,952,992 Ordinary Shares and paid $53.5 million in cash in satisfaction of 2021 Advisory Amounts.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount. The Company calculated the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amounts using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days of $11.97. These approaches resulted in fair values of $308.0 million for the Variable Annual Advisory Amount and $169.2 million for the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” of its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on March 31, 2022. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, stock options, founder advisory fees, contingent earn-out liability and realizability of deferred tax assets. We are not presently aware of any events or circumstances that would require us to update our estimates, assumptions or revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. Our estimates may change, however, as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements. For information on the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, short-term interest rates and price fluctuations of certain material commodities in the ordinary course of our business. We have not engaged in hedging activities since inception and currently, do not expect to engage in any hedging activities with respect to the market risk to which we are exposed.
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency exchange risks are attributable to sales to foreign customers and purchases from foreign suppliers not denominated in a location’s functional currency, foreign plant operations, intercompany indebtedness, intercompany investments and include exposures to the Euro, Canadian dollar, Norwegian krone and Australian dollar. We have elected to use the U.S. dollar for our Luxembourg entities. Transactions that are paid in a foreign currency are remeasured into U.S. dollars and recorded in the consolidated financial statements at prevailing currency exchange rates. A reduction in the value of the U.S. dollar against currencies of other countries could result in the use of additional cash to settle operating, administrative and tax liabilities.
Interest Rate Risk
For variable rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value of such debt, but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. We are subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. Interest on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is based on adjusted LIBOR plus or base rate plus an applicable margin. At March 31, 2022, we had no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. Our Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed rate and the fair value approximates the carrying value.
Commodity Price Risk
Our realized margins depend on the differential of sales prices over our total supply costs. Generally, we attempt to maintain an inventory position that is substantially balanced between our purchases and sales, including our future delivery

obligations. However, market, weather or other conditions beyond our control may disrupt our expected supply of product, and we may be required to obtain supply at increased prices that cannot be passed through to our customers. For example, some of our material supply contracts follow market prices, which may fluctuate through the year, while our product sales prices may be fixed on a quarterly or annual basis, and therefore, fluctuations in our material supply may not be passed through to our customers and can produce an adverse effect on our margins.
Effects of Inflation
We are subject to inflationary pressures with respect to raw materials, labor and transportation. Accordingly, we continue to take actions with our customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with customers include contractual price escalation clauses and negotiated customer recoveries. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, at March 31, 2022, PSSA has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including PSSA’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As described further in our 2021 Annual Report, PSSA’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer had concluded that as of December 31, 2021, the design and implementation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the existence of material weaknesses. These material weaknesses around control environment and control activities continued to exist at March 31, 2022. These material weaknesses include:
SK Intermediate’s continued material weaknesses related to a lack of appropriately designed and implemented controls (i) to maintain segregation of duties between the creation, posting and approval of journal entries and (ii) to ensure the assumptions made in connection with estimates used to value intangible assets acquired in business combinations are sufficiently reviewed.
We did not appropriately design and implement management review controls at a sufficient level of precision around complex accounting areas and disclosure including business combinations and income taxes. These deficiencies were attributed to an insufficient number of qualified resources and inadequate oversight and accountability over the performance of controls.
We failed to properly design and implement controls over the business combination specifically related to the presentation of the statement of cash flows, equity issuance costs, transaction costs and the determination of purchase consideration.
We failed to properly design and implement controls related to the forecasting of the repatriation of earnings with respect to APB 23.
We have begun the process of, and we are focused on, designing and implementing effective internal control measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses. Our internal control remediation efforts include the following:
We hired an additional qualified accounting resource.
We engaged outside resources to assist with the design and implementation of a system of risk-based internal controls that aligns to and is measured against the framework issued to the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) ("COSO 2013").
