NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Description of Business

AgroFresh Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) is an agriculture technology innovator and global leader with a mission to prevent food loss and waste and conserve the planet’s resources by providing a range of science-based solutions, data-driven digital technologies and high-touch customer services. The Company supports growers, packers and retailers with solutions across the food supply chain to enhance the quality and extend the shelf life of fresh produce. The Company has 40 years of post-harvest experience across a broad range of crops, including revolutionizing the apple industry with the SmartFresh™ Quality System more than 20 years ago. The AgroFresh platform is powered by the Company's comprehensive portfolio that includes plant-based coatings, equipment and proprietary solutions that help improve the freshness supply chain from harvest to the home.

The Company has an extensive portfolio of solutions to extend freshness across the produce supply chain from near-harvest up to the point-of sale. These include Harvista™ for near-harvest optimization, and the SmartFresh™ Quality System, the Company's flagship post-harvest freshness solutions. Additional post-harvest freshness solutions include fungicides that can be applied to meet various customer operational requirements in both foggable (ActiMist™) and liquid (ActiSeal™) delivery options. The Company has a controlling interest in AgroFresh Fruit Protection S.A. ("AgroFresh Fruit Protection") (formerly Tecnidex Fruit Protection, S.A.), a leading regional provider of post-harvest fungicides, disinfectants, coatings and packinghouse equipment for the citrus market. Beyond apples and pears, SmartFresh technology can provide ready-to-eat freshness for other fruits and vegetables including avocados, bananas, melons, tomatoes, broccoli and mangos. The Company has key products registered in approximately 50 countries, and supports customers by protecting over 25,000 storage rooms globally.

The end-markets that the Company serves are seasonal and are generally aligned with the seasonal growing patterns of the Company’s customers. For those customers growing, harvesting or storing apples and pears, the Company’s core crops, the peak season in the southern hemisphere is the first and second quarters of each year, while the peak season in the northern hemisphere is the third and fourth quarters of each year. Within each half-year period (i.e., January through June for the southern hemisphere, and July through December for the northern hemisphere) the growing season has historically occurred during both quarters. A variety of factors, including weather, may affect the timing of the growing, harvesting and storing patterns of the Company’s customers and therefore shift the consumption of the Company’s services and products between the first and second quarters primarily in the southern hemisphere or between the third and fourth quarters primarily in the northern hemisphere.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's condensed consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows for the periods shown, including normal, recurring accruals and other items. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For additional information, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

COVID-19

The global health crisis caused by COVID-19 and the related government actions and stay at home orders have negatively impacted economic activity and increased political instability across the globe. The outbreak could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. There have been numerous obstacles presented and some localized financial impacts of the pandemic, including fluctuations in customer demand and spending pattern changes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations. While the Company is following the requirements of governmental authorities and taking additional preventative and protective measures to ensure the safety of its workforce, including remote working arrangements and varying procedures for essential workforce, the outbreak presents some uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company and its performance and financial results.

Adoption of Highly Inflationary Accounting in Argentina and Turkey

GAAP requires the use of highly inflationary accounting for countries whose cumulative three-year inflation rate exceeds 100 percent. The Company closely monitors the inflation data and currency volatility where there are multiple data sources for

measuring and reporting inflation in applicable countries. In the second quarter of 2018, the Argentine peso rapidly devalued relative to the U.S. dollar, which along with increased inflation, indicated that the three-year cumulative inflation rate in that country exceeded 100 percent as of June 30, 2018. As a result, the Company elected to adopt highly inflationary accounting as of July 1, 2018 for its subsidiary in Argentina. As the three-year cumulative inflation rate exceeded 100 percent as of September 30, 2022, there is no change to highly inflationary accounting in Argentina.

In the first half of 2022, the Turkish lira rapidly devalued relative to the U.S. dollar, which along with increased inflation, indicated that the three-year cumulative inflation rate in that country exceeded 100 percent as of April 1, 2022. As a result, the Company elected to adopt highly inflationary accounting as of April 1, 2022 for its subsidiary in Turkey.

Under highly inflationary accounting, the functional currencies of the Company's subsidiaries in Argentina and Turkey became the U.S. dollar, and its income statement and balance sheet will be measured in U.S. dollars using both current and historical rates of exchange. The effect of changes in exchange rates in the currencies of these countries on monetary assets and liabilities are reflected in earnings. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s subsidiary in Argentina had net assets of ($11.3) million. Net sales attributable to Argentina were approximately 5% and 5% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s subsidiary in Turkey had net assets of $11.0 million. Net sales attributable to Turkey were approximately 2% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into geographic region, product and timing of transfer of goods and services. The Company determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective of depicting how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606 Revenue from contracts with Customers requires an entity to present a revenue contract as a contract asset when the entity performs its obligations under the contract by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due. ASC 606 also requires an entity to present a revenue contract as a contract liability in instances when a customer pays consideration, or an entity has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (e.g., receivable), before the entity transfers a good or service to the customer. The following table presents changes in the Company’s contract assets and liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021:


(in thousands)	Balance at December 31, 2021	Additions	Deductions	Balance at September 30, 2022
Contract assets:
Unbilled revenue	$795	12,609	(10,342)	$3,062
Contract liabilities:
Deferred revenue	$635	4,658	(3,688)	1,605


(in thousands)	Balance at December 31, 2020	Additions	Deductions	Balance at December 31, 2021
Contract assets:
Unbilled revenue	$1,484	17,617	(18,306)	$795
Contract liabilities:
Deferred revenue	$1,474	4,123	(4,962)	$635

The Company recognizes contract assets in the form of unbilled revenue in instances where services are performed by the Company but not billed by period end. The Company recognizes contract liabilities in the form of deferred revenue in instances where a customer pays in advance for future services to be performed by the Company. The Company generally receives payments from its customers based on standard terms and conditions. No significant changes or impairment losses occurred to contract balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Amounts reclassified from unbilled revenue to accounts receivable for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $10.3 million and $18.3 million, respectively. Amounts reclassified from deferred revenue to revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $3.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards and Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740, "Income Taxes" and also improve consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2021. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments are intended to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. The new standard is effective on a date selected by the Company between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2021 were as follows:


(in thousands)						December 31, 2021
Beginning balance						$6,925
Foreign currency translation						(545)
Impairment of goodwill						(6,380)
Ending balance						$—

As a result of the operating segment realignment discussed in Note 19 - Segment Information, the composition of the Company's reporting units for the evaluation of goodwill impairment has changed. Historically, the Company's reporting units were identified at the operating segment level, which consisted of AgroFresh Core and AgroFresh Fruit Protection and all of the Company's goodwill was assigned to the AgroFresh Fruit Protection reporting unit. Effective December 31, 2021, the Company concluded that it has one operating segment and one reporting unit, which resulted in the reassignment of its goodwill to its stand-alone reporting unit. Prior to the change, the Company tested goodwill for impairment at the previous reporting unit, which did not result in any impairment charge. Based upon the Company's impairment assessment at the new reporting unit (consolidated AgroFresh), the Company determined the carrying amount of the consolidated entity exceeded its fair value. As a result, the Company recorded $6.4 million in goodwill impairment charges during the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company’s intangible assets at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consisted of the following:

Amended Credit Facility

On July 27, 2020, the Company completed a comprehensive refinancing (the “Refinancing”) by (i) entering into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with the other loan parties party thereto, Bank of Montreal, as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto, and (ii) consummating the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement (as defined and described in Note 15 – Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity). The Amended

Tabl e of Contents

Credit Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Credit Agreement a subsidiary of the Company had with Bank of Montreal that was entered into on July 31, 2015.

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $25.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Amended Revolving Loan”), which matures on June 30, 2024, and a $275.0 million term credit facility (the “Amended Term Loan” and, together with the Amended Revolving Loan, the “Amended Credit Facility”), which matures on December 31, 2024. The Amended Credit Facility includes a $5.0 million swingline commitment and a $10.0 million letter of credit sub-limit. Loans under the Amended Term Loan bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the interest period in effect for such borrowing plus an Applicable Rate of 6.25% per annum, or the Alternate Base Rate plus an Applicable Rate of 5.25% per annum. Loans under the Amended Revolving Loan bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the interest period in effect for such borrowing plus the Applicable Rate ranging from 6.25% to 6.0% per annum, based on certain ratios. The interest rate was 7.25% for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Amended Revolving Loan at a rate ranging from 0.5% to 0.375%, based on certain ratios. The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of outstanding indebtedness under the Amended Credit Agreement under certain circumstances. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, a prepayment of principal of $9.1 million was made.

The obligations of AgroFresh Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the borrower under the Amended Credit Facility, are initially guaranteed by the Company and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AF Solutions Holdings LLC (together with AgroFresh Inc. and the Company, the “Loan Parties”) and may in the future be guaranteed by certain other domestic subsidiaries of the Company. The obligations of the Loan Parties under the Amended Credit Agreement and other loan documents are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a perfected security interest in all tangible and intangible assets of the Loan Parties, except for certain excluded assets, and equity interests of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Loan Parties held by the Loan Parties (subject to certain exclusions and limitations).

The interest expense related to the amortization of the Amended Credit Facility debt issuance costs was $0.5 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and $1.5 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, there were $5.0 million of unamortized deferred issuance costs.

At September 30, 2022, there was $260.4 million outstanding under the Amended Term Loan and no balance outstanding under the Amended Revolving Loan. At September 30, 2022, the Company evaluated the amount recorded under the Amended Term Loan and determined that the fair value was approximately $255.2 million. The fair value of the debt is based on quoted inactive market prices and is therefore classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Certain restrictive covenants are contained in the Amended Credit Agreement, and the Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2022.

AgroFresh Fruit Protection Debt

On March 23, 2020, AgroFresh Fruit Protection entered into a €1.0 million loan agreement with Banco Santander, S.A., which provides funding through March 2023 at a 1.5% interest rate.

11. Leases

The Company enters into lease agreements for certain facilities and vehicles that are primarily used in the ordinary course of business. These leases are accounted for as operating leases, whereby lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Tabl e of Contents

Most leases include an option to extend or renew the lease term. The exercise of the renewal option is at the Company's discretion. The operating lease liability includes lease payments related to options to extend or renew the lease term if the Company is reasonably certain of exercising those options. The Company, in determining the present value of lease payments, uses the Company’s incremental secured borrowing rate commensurate with the term of the underlying lease.

Lease expense is primarily included in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additional information regarding the Company's operating leases is as follows:

14. Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest ("NCI")

On November 7, 2017, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a controlling-interest in AgroFresh Fruit Protection. The transaction was closed on December 1, 2017. At the effective date of the acquisition, the Company acquired 75% of the outstanding capital stock of AgroFresh Fruit Protection. In connection with the acquisition of AgroFresh Fruit Protection, the Company concurrently entered into option agreements ("Option Agreement") with the Seller related to the remaining 25% equity interest. The Option Agreement permits the residual interest to be "put" by the Seller to the Company, or to allow the Company to "call" the residual interest gradually over time as outlined in the agreement. The Seller's ownership of AgroFresh Fruit Protection represents a NCI to the Company, which is classified outside of stockholders' equity as the option of the Seller is redeemable. As of September 30, 2022 the carrying amount of the NCI was $6.9 million in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Any changes in the redemption value of the NCI are included as an adjustment to Additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet.

15. Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

On June 13, 2020, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with PSP, an affiliate of Paine Schwartz Partners, LLC, pursuant to which, subject to certain closing conditions, PSP agreed to purchase in a private placement an aggregate of $150,000,000 of convertible preferred equity of the Company. The transaction closed on July 27, 2020 (the "Closing Date"), and a total of 150,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B-1 Preferred Stock”), were purchased in such transaction (the “Private Placement”). On September 22, 2020, following the approval of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement by the necessary regulatory body, the Company issued to PSP, for no additional consideration, a total of 150,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B-2 Preferred Stock”). On September 25, 2020 (the "Exchange Date"), PSP elected to exchange the shares of the Company’s Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Preferred Stock held by it for a total of 150,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). Accordingly, effective as of the Exchange Date, the Company issued 150,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, to PSP and all of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Preferred Stock held by PSP were cancelled. No shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock or Series B-2 Preferred Stock were outstanding as of September 30, 2022.

The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on the distribution of assets on any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”). Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend at a rate of 16% per annum, of which 50% was payable in cash and 50% was payable in kind until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, after which 50% is payable in cash, 37.5% is payable in kind, and the remaining 12.5% is payable in cash or in kind, at the Company’s option, subject in each case to adjustment under certain circumstances. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears. All dividends that are paid in kind will accrete to, and increase, the Stated Value. The applicable dividend rate is subject to increase by 2% per annum during any period that the Company is in breach of certain provisions of the Certificate of Designation of the Series B Preferred

Tabl e of Contents

Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has been classified as temporary equity as it may be contingently redeemable in the event of a change of control, which is outside of the Company's control.

Associated with the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company paid dividends of $3.3 million in kind and $3.3 million in cash during the three months ended September 30, 2022, and $9.0 million in kind and $10.6 million in cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company paid dividends of $2.3 million in kind and $3.9 million in cash during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and $8.6 million in kind and $10.0 million in cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 associated with the Series B Preferred Stock. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no accrued dividends.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $5.00 (“Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments, including for stock splits and other reorganizations affecting the Common Stock and pursuant to certain anti-dilution provisions for below market issuances. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the maximum number of shares of common stock that could be issued upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock was 34.0 million and 32.2 million shares, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company redeemed 4,954 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for $5.3 million. The below table outlines the change in Series B Preferred Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.

In connection with the consummation of the Investment Agreement, the Company and PSP entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (as amended, the “Registration Rights Agreement”), dated as of July 27, 2020. The Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file a shelf registration statement with the SEC within 30 days following a written request by PSP, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such shelf registration statement to be declared effective as promptly as is reasonably practicable after its filing to permit the public resale of registrable securities covered by the Registration Rights Agreement. The registrable securities generally include any shares of the Company’s common stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, and any other securities issued or issuable with respect to any such shares of common stock by way of share split, share dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event or otherwise.

Common Stock

The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 400 million shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock. As of September 30, 2022, there were approximately 53.0 million shares of common stock outstanding.

Series A Preferred Stock

The Company has one share of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, which is owned by R&H. R&H, voting as a separate class, is entitled to appoint one director to the Company’s board of directors for so long as R&H beneficially holds 10% or more of the aggregate amount of the outstanding shares of common stock and non-voting common stock of the Company. The Series A Preferred Stock has no other rights.

16. Stock-based Compensation

The Company's stock-based compensation is in accordance with the Company's amended 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which the Compensation Committee of the Company is authorized to grant up to 13.7 million shares to officers and employees of the Company, in the form of equity-based awards, including time or performance based options and

Tabl e of Contents

restricted stock. In addition, the Company may grant cash-settled awards, including stock-appreciation rights (SARs) and phantom stock awards.

In June 2019, the Company's shareholders approved the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"), which was effective July 1, 2019. In August 2021, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the ESPP was increased to 1.25 million. The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock at a discount of up to 15% through payroll deductions of their eligible compensation, subject to any plan limitations. The ESPP provides for six-month offering periods beginning January 1 and July 1 of each year, and each offering period consists of a six-month purchase period. On each purchase date, eligible employees may purchase the Company's common stock at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the common stock on the offering date or (2) the fair market value of the common stock on the purchase date. As of September 30, 2022, 564,233 shares had been issued under the ESPP.

Stock compensation expense for equity-classified and liability-classified awards was $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock compensation expense for equity-classified and liability-classified awards was $3.4 million and $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock compensation expense is recognized in cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses. At September 30, 2022, there was $7.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost relating to outstanding unvested equity instruments expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 1.8 years.

17. Earnings Per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company had a net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Therefore, the effect of stock-based awards including options, restricted stock and restricted stock units outstanding at September 30, 2022 and 2021 were excluded in the computation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table is a reconciliation of the weighted-average common shares outstanding used for the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:


	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2022	2021	2022	2021
Basic weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding	52,400	51,583	52,077	51,323
Effect of dilutive options, restricted stock and restricted stock units	—	—	—	—
Diluted weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding	52,400	51,583	52,077	51,323

The following represents the weighted average number of shares that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future:


	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2022	2021	2022	2021
Convertible preferred stock	33,324	31,242	32,731	30,955
Stock-based compensation awards(1):
Stock options	1,555	1,446	1,526	1,114
Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units	5,165	3,790	4,633	3,214

(1) SARs and phantom stock awards are payable in cash and will therefore have no impact on number of shares.

18. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for federal, state and foreign income taxes. The effective tax rates for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, reflect the Company’s expected tax rate on reported income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax and tax adjustments. The Company operates in a global environment with significant operations in the U.S. and various other jurisdictions outside the U.S. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the Company’s earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various jurisdictions where the Company operates.

Tabl e of Contents

The Company's U.S. operations have incurred cumulative taxable losses through September 30, 2022. The Company’s U.S. net operating loss carry forwards and carry forwards of other tax attributes are subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service and state tax authorities. The utilization of the tax attributes have become restricted because of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant shareholders over a three-year period in excess of 50%, as defined under Section 382 and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as well as similar state tax provisions. This limits the amount of the tax attributes that the Company can utilize annually to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities. The amount of the annual limitation, if any, was determined based on the value of the Company immediately prior to the ownership change. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years. Please refer to Note 3 - Related Party Transactions regarding the ownership change in the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The Company completed a Section 382 study and determined the ownership change gave rise to the restrictions that will limit the realizability of certain U.S. tax attributes and built-in losses related to future intangible amortization tax deductions. These limitations apply to the corresponding tax attributes and built-in losses incurred before the ownership change.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21%, primarily because of changes in valuation allowance positions related to certain foreign jurisdictions, taxable foreign inclusions within the U.S., and certain non-deductible items. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was (13.1)% and 9.3%, compared to the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 of 20.4% and (35.6)%.

19. Segment Information

ASC 280 requires use of the management approach for segment reporting. The management approach is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Through the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had operated and managed our business as two reportable segments, AgroFresh Core and AgroFresh Fruit Protection (formerly Tecnidex). Due to changes in senior management, as well as the integration of AgroFresh Fruit Protection with the Company's Core business operational and reporting structure, during the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company determined that it has one reportable segment as of December 31, 2021. Since the Company operates in one operating segment, all required financial segment information can be found in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

20. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is currently involved in various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company has recorded reserves for loss contingencies based on the specific circumstances of each case. Such reserves are recorded when it is probable that a loss has been incurred as of the balance sheet date and can be reasonably estimated. Although the results of litigation and claims can never be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

On October 14, 2019, the Company was awarded a verdict of $31.1 million in damages, related to, among other things, trade secret misappropriation and willful patent infringement, in its litigation against Decco Post-Harvest, Inc. ("Decco") and Decco's parent company, UPL Limited. The award was subsequently reduced by $18 million in connection with post-verdict review by the Court. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the lawsuit was settled, paid and is considered closed.

Purchase Commitments

The Company has various purchasing contracts for contract manufacturing and research and development services which are based on the requirements of the business. Generally, the contracts are at prices not in excess of current market price and do not commit the business to obligations outside the normal customary terms for similar contracts, and these payment obligations are considered insignificant.

Business Overview

AgroFresh is a global leader in delivering innovative food preservation and waste reduction solutions for fresh produce. The Company is empowering the food industry with a range of integrated solutions designed to help growers, packers and retailers improve produce freshness and quality while reducing waste. AgroFresh has key products registered in over 50 countries, and supports customers by protecting approximately 25,000 storage rooms globally. AgroFresh's solutions range from near-harvest with Harvista™ and LandSpring™ to its flagship post-harvest SmartFresh™ Quality System. Additional post-harvest freshness solutions include fungicides that can be applied to meet various customer operational requirements, in either a foggable (ActiMist™) or liquid (ActiSeal™) delivery form. To supplement our near- and post-harvest product solutions, our FreshCloud™ digital technology platform includes analytical, diagnostic and tracking services that provide a range of value-added capabilities to help customers optimize the quality of their produce. Beyond apples, SmartFresh technology can provide ready-to-eat freshness for other fruits and vegetables including avocados, bananas, melons, tomatoes, broccoli and mangos.

In December 2017, AgroFresh acquired a controlling interest in AgroFresh Fruit Protection (formerly known as Tecnidex). With this acquisition, AgroFresh expanded its industry-leading post-harvest presence into additional crops and increased its penetration of the produce market in southern Europe, Latin America and Africa. For over 40 years, AgroFresh Fruit Protection has been helping fruit and vegetable producers offer clean, safe and high-quality products to customers in 18 countries. AgroFresh Fruit Protection offers a portfolio of post-harvest fungicides, coatings and disinfectants, packinghouse equipment and associated consulting and after-sale services to improves the quality and value of customers’ fruit and vegetables while respecting the environment. AgroFresh Fruit Protection further diversified AgroFresh’s revenue by allowing the Company to provide solutions and service to the citrus industry.

Freshness is the most important driver of consumer satisfaction when it comes to produce and, at the same time, food waste is a major issue in the industry. About one-third of the total food produced worldwide is lost or wasted each year. Nearly 50% of all fresh fruits and vegetables are lost to spoilage. AgroFresh plays a key role in the value chain by offering products and services that maintain produce freshness and reduce waste.

AgroFresh’s flagship SmartFresh Quality System regulates the post-harvest ripening effects of ethylene, the naturally occurring plant hormone that triggers ripening in certain fruits and vegetables. SmartFresh degrades naturally, leaves no detectable residue and has been approved for use by many domestic and global regulatory organizations. Harvista extends the Company’s proprietary technology into the field, including treatment of cherries early in the growing season and near-harvest management of apples, pears and blueberries. FreshCloud™ is our digital technology services platform, which continues to expand. Launched in 2020, FreshCloud Quality Inspection is a proprietary cloud-based mobile quality management service that digitizes what was formerly a manual quality control process and captures, organizes and analyzes quality metrics in real time. LandSpring™ is an innovative 1-MCP technology targeted to transplanted vegetable seedlings. It is currently registered for use on tomatoes, peppers and 14 other crops in the US. It reduces transplant shock, resulting in less seedling mortality and faster crop establishment, which leads to a healthier crop and improved yields.

AgroFresh’s business is highly seasonal, driven by the timing of the apple and pear harvests in the northern and southern hemispheres. The first half of the year is when the southern hemisphere harvest occurs, and the second half of the year is when the northern hemisphere harvest occurs. Since the northern hemisphere harvest of apples and pears is typically larger, a significant portion of our sales and profits are historically generated in the second half of the year. In addition to this seasonality, factors such as weather patterns may impact the timing of the harvest within the two halves of the year.

Recent Development

On October 24, 2022, a special committee of the Company's board of directors agreed with Paine Schwartz to pursue a transaction in which Paine Schwartz would acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the Company, which transaction would be conditioned upon, among other things, approval of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock owned by disinterested stockholders. This proposed transaction is not yet certain and is subject to, among other things, Paine Schwartz's satisfaction of confirmatory diligence and negotiation and execution of definitive documentation. The potential timing of this proposed transaction, if effected, is not yet known, and no agreement between Paine Schwartz and the Company relating to the proposed transaction will be created unless definitive documentation is executed and delivered by the appropriate parties.

Factors Affecting the Company’s Results of Operations

The Company’s results of operations are affected by a number of external factors. Some of the more important factors are briefly discussed below.

Impact of COVID-19

In March 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a National Public Health Emergency which continues to spread throughout the world and has adversely impacted global activity and contributed to significant volatility in financial markets. The outbreak could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations. However, there were numerous obstacles presented and some localized financial impacts of the pandemic, including fluctuations in customer demand and spending pattern changes. While the Company is following the requirements of governmental authorities and taking additional preventative and protective measures to ensure the safety of its workforce, including implementing remote working arrangements and varying procedures for essential workforce, we cannot be 100% certain that there will not be any incidents across our global operations that may cause service interruptions. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate impact of the coronavirus outbreak, although the Company operates in an industry that thus far has not been as severely impacted as others. Nevertheless, the outbreak presents some uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company and its performance and financial results.

Demand for the Company’s Offerings

The Company sells to customers in approximately 50 countries and derives its revenue by assisting growers and packers to optimize the value of their crops primarily in the near and post-harvest periods. The Company's products and services add value to customers by reducing food spoilage and extending the life of perishable fruits. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has estimated that a growing global population will require a near doubling of food production in developing countries by 2050 to meet the expected demand of a worldwide population projected to reach 9 billion people.

Tabl e of Contents

This global trend, among others, creates demand for the Company’s solutions. The Company’s offerings are currently protected by patent filings in 45 countries.

The global produce market is a function of both the size and the yield of the crop harvested; variations in either will affect total production. Given the nature of the agricultural industry, weather patterns may impact total production and the Company's resulting commercial opportunities. The Company supports a diverse customer base whose end markets vary due to the type of fruit and quality of the product demanded in their respective markets. Such variation across end markets also affects demand for the Company’s services.

Customer Pricing

The Company’s offerings are priced based on the value they provide to the Company’s customers. From time to time, the Company adjusts the pricing of its offerings to address market trends. The Company's offerings are priced based on the value they provide to the Company's customers and based on market economic factors including, but not limited to, inflation, currency exchange and materials cost. The timing of pricing and economic factors could cause margin fluctuation. In addition, the Company's pricing model may include rebate arrangements for long-term agreements and/or significant volume achievements.

Integrated Direct Service Model

AgroFresh offers the Company’s commercially available products, including SmartFresh and Harvista, primarily through a direct service model. Sales and sales support personnel maintain face-to-face relationships with customers year round. Technical sales and support personnel work with customers to provide value-added advisory services regarding the application of SmartFresh. The actual application of SmartFresh is performed by service providers that are typically third-party contractors. Harvista is applied through both ground and aerial application, which are administered by third-party service providers or made by our customers directly.

Most of the Company’s service providers are operating under multi-year contracts. Management believes the quality and experience of its service providers deliver clear commercial benefits.

Seasonality

The Company’s operations are subject to seasonal variation due to the timing of the growing seasons around the world. For our core crops of apples and pears, southern hemisphere growers harvest from late January to early May, and northern hemisphere growers harvest from August through November. For citrus crops, there are seasonal variations in this business due to the northern hemisphere citrus harvest, which spans from October to March. Since the majority of the Company’s sales are in northern hemisphere countries, a proportionately greater share of its revenue is realized during the second half of the year. There are also variations in the seasonal demands from year to year depending on weather patterns and crop size. This seasonality and variations in seasonal demand could impact the ability to compare results between periods.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

With a global customer base and geographic footprint, the Company generates revenue and incurs costs in a number of different currencies, with the Euro comprising the most significant non-U.S. currency. As such, the Company has both translation and transaction exposure to the fluctuations of exchange rates. The translation exposure relates to the exchange rate impacts of measuring income statements of foreign subsidiaries that do not use the U.S. Dollar as their functional currency. Fluctuations in the value of these currencies relative to the U.S. dollar can increase or decrease the Company’s overall revenue and profitability as stated in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s reporting currency. In certain instances, if sales in a given geography have been adversely impacted on a long-term basis due to foreign currency depreciation, the Company has been able to adjust its pricing so as to mitigate the impact on profitability. The transaction exposure relates to the revaluation of working capital balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Certain countries experiencing significant exchange rate fluctuations have had, and may continue to have, a significant impact on the Company’s net sales, profitability and cash flows.

Domestic and Foreign Operations

The Company has both domestic and foreign operations. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, regional growth-related spending in R&D and marketing expenses, and changes in local selling prices, among other factors, may impact the profitability of foreign operations in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that can have a significant impact on the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and that require the use of complex and subjective estimates based upon management’s judgment. Because of the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ materially from these estimates. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in the 2021 Form 10-K. For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates as well as a listing of our significant accounting policies, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates” and “Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the 2021 Form 10-K. Goodwill is no longer considered a critical accounting policy as the full balance was written off as of December 31, 2021.

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements. Management believes these critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2022 versus the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Net Sales

Net sales were $47.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to net sales of $49.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of 2.9%. The impact of the change in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the third quarter of 2021 decreased revenue by $3.0 million. Excluding this impact, revenue increased approximately 3.1%, primarily driven by leveraging a portfolio of diverse solutions. The SmartFresh diversification category was driven by the early timing of sales in EMEA, while North America experienced later timing of sales, which was partially offset by strong demand for EthylBloc amid the recovering flower industry. SmartFresh for Apple experienced growth in EMEA, Latin America, and APAC, which was partially offset by the unfavorable conditions affecting the North American season.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $15.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Excluding foreign currency translation impacts, which reduced gross profit by $3.0 million as compared to the third quarter of 2021, gross profit increased 3.1%. Gross profit margin was 67.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 versus 69.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The lower gross margin primarily reflects the Company’s strategic transition to a more diversified product portfolio, unfavorable foreign currency translation, and higher material costs associated with inflationary pressures, partially offset by select price increases.

Tabl e of Contents

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses were $3.2 million and $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease was primarily related to timing of projects.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $13.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $12.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 10.2% driven primarily by commercial investments.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangible assets was $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Other (Expense) Income

The Company had no material other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to other expense of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

(Loss) Gain on Foreign Currency

Loss on foreign currency was $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to a loss of $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. During the third quarter of 2022, foreign currency losses were recognized related to U.S. dollar intercompany receivables from the euro, Argentinian peso and South African rand, which grew weaker relative to the U.S. dollar.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense was $5.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to higher interest of $0.7 million on the long-term debt as a result of increased interest rates offset by higher interest income on investments of $0.4 million.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to income tax expense of $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the quarter’s largest effective tax rate modifications are related to changes in valuation allowance positions related to certain foreign jurisdictions, taxable foreign inclusions within the U.S. and certain non-deductible items.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 versus the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Net Sales

Net sales were $113.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to net sales of $110.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 3.0%. The impact of the change in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reduced revenue by $5.6 million. Excluding this impact, revenue increased approximately 8.1%, primarily driven by leveraging a portfolio of diverse solutions. Each of the Company's diversification categories generated growth in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, led by Antimicrobials and Coatings market penetration and expansion in EMEA. SmartFresh Diversification and Ethylbloc contributed to growth in the Other 1-MCP category. This was partially offset by SmartFresh for Apple declines in certain countries in Latin America and North America due to unfavorable weather and timing events.

Tabl e of Contents

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $36.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $32.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Excluding foreign currency translation impacts, which reduced gross profit by $2.2 million as compared to the prior year-to-date period, gross profit increased 1.6%. Gross profit margin was 67.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 versus 70.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The lower gross margin primarily reflects the Company’s strategic transition to a more diversified product portfolio, unfavorable foreign currency translation, and higher material costs associated with inflationary pressures, partially offset by price increases.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses were $9.1 million and $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease was primarily related to timing of projects.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $39.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $39.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 0.8%, driven primarily by the timing of expenses.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangible assets was $32.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $32.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Other Income

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had other income of $0.5 million related to the receipt of data sharing income. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 the Company had other income of $14.1 million due to the receipt of proceeds from the settlement of a litigation matter.

(Loss) Gain on Foreign Currency

Loss on foreign currency was $9.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to a gain of $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, foreign currency losses were recognized related to U.S. dollar intercompany receivables from the euro, Argentinian peso and South African rand, which grew weaker relative to the U.S. dollar along with losses due to the impact of hyperinflationary accounting in Turkey and Argentina.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense was $15.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $16.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to higher interest income on investments of $1.0 million, and lower debt amortization of $0.3 million offset by higher interest of $0.5 million on the long-term debt.

Income Taxes

Income tax benefit was $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to income tax expense of $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the largest effective tax rate modifications are related to changes in valuation allowance positions related to certain foreign jurisdictions, taxable foreign inclusions within the U.S. and certain non-deductible items.

Non-GAAP Measures

The following tables set forth the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP constant currency net sales. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information as they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate the Company’s performance (including for incentive bonuses and bank covenant reporting), are more indicative of future operating performance of the Company, and facilitate a better comparison among fiscal periods. These non-GAAP results are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

The following is a reconciliation between the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net loss including non-controlling interest:

Amended Credit Facility

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $25.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Amended Revolving Loan”) which matures on June 30, 2024, and a $275.0 million term credit facility (the “Amended Term Loan” and, together with the Amended Revolving Loan, the “Amended Credit Facility”), which matures on December 31, 2024. The Amended Credit Facility includes a $5.0 million swingline commitment and a $10.0 million letter of credit sub-limit. Loans under the Amended Term Loan bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the interest period in effect for such borrowing plus an Applicable Rate of 6.25% per annum, or the Alternate Base Rate plus an Applicable Rate of 5.25% per annum. Loans under the Amended Revolving Loan bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the interest period in effect for such borrowing plus the Applicable Rate ranging from 6.25% to 6.0% per annum, based on certain ratios. The interest rate was 7.25% for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Amended Revolving Loan at a rate ranging from 0.5% to 0.375%, based on certain ratios. The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of outstanding indebtedness under the Amended Credit Agreement under certain circumstances. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, a prepayment of principal of $9.1 million was made.

(together with AgroFresh Inc. and the Company, the “Loan Parties”) and may in the future be guaranteed by certain other domestic subsidiaries of the Company. The obligations of the Loan Parties under the Amended Credit Agreement and other loan documents are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a perfected security interest in all tangible and intangible assets of the Loan Parties, except for certain excluded assets, and equity interests of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Loan Parties held by the Loan Parties (subject to certain exclusions and limitations).

The interest expense related to the amortization of the Amended Credit Facility debt issuance costs was $0.5 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and $1.5 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 there were $5.0 million of unamortized deferred issuance costs.

At September 30, 2022, there was $260.4 million outstanding under the Amended Term Loan and no balance outstanding under the Amended Revolving Loan. Due to the prepayment, an additional $0.3 million of deferred financing costs were expensed based on the portion of debt paid. At September 30, 2022, the Company evaluated the amount recorded under the Amended Term Loan and determined that the fair value was approximately $255.2 million. The fair value of the debt is based on quoted inactive market prices and is therefore classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Certain restrictive covenants are contained in the Amended Credit Agreement, and the Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2022.

Preferred Stock Financing

On June 13, 2020, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with PSP AGFS Holdings, L.P. ("PSP"), an affiliate of Paine Schwartz Partners, LLC, pursuant to which, subject to certain closing conditions, PSP agreed to purchase in a private placement an aggregate of $150,000,000 of convertible preferred equity of the Company. The transaction closed on July 27, 2020 (the "Closing Date") and a total of 150,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B-1 Preferred Stock”) were purchased in such transaction (the “Private Placement”). On September 22, 2020, following the approval of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement by the necessary regulatory body, the Company issued to PSP, for no additional consideration, a total of 150,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B-2 Preferred Stock”). On September 25, 2020 (the "Exchange Date"), PSP elected to exchange the shares of the Company’s Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Preferred Stock held by it for a total of 150,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). Accordingly, effective as of the Exchange Date, the Company issued 150,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, to PSP and all of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Preferred Stock held by PSP were cancelled. No shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock or Series B-2 Preferred Stock are outstanding as of September 30, 2022.

The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on the distribution of assets on any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”). Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend at a rate of 16% per annum, of which 50% was payable in cash and 50% was payable in kind until the first anniversary of Closing Date, after which 50% is payable in cash, 37.5% is payable in kind, and the remaining 12.5% is payable in cash or in kind, at the Company’s option, subject in each case to adjustment under certain circumstances. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears. All dividends that are paid in kind will accrete to, and increase, the Stated Value. The applicable dividend rate is subject to increase by 2% per annum during any period that the Company is in breach of certain provisions of the Certificate of Designation of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has been classified as temporary equity as it may be contingently redeemable in the event of a change of control, which is outside of the Company's control.

Associated with the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company paid dividends of $3.3 million in kind and $3.3 million in cash during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $9.0 million in kind and $10.6 million in cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $5.00 (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments, including for stock splits and other reorganizations affecting the Common Stock and pursuant to certain anti-dilution provisions for below market issuances. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the maximum number of shares of common stock that could be issued upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was approximately 34.0 million and 32.2 million shares, respectively.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures within the meaning of Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. The Company's disclosure controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. The Company's disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our Disclosure Controls, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

As of September 30, 2022, our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2022.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our internal control over financial reporting include those policies and procedures that:

•pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

•provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and

•provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment using those criteria, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022 was effective.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time we are named as a defendant in legal actions arising from our normal business activities. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against us, we do not believe any currently pending legal proceeding to which we are a party will have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Ownership of our securities involves a high degree of risk. Holders of our securities should carefully consider, in addition to the historical financial statements and related notes and other information set forth in this Report, the risk factors discussed in Part I - Item 1A - Risk Factors included in our 2021 Form 10-K, all of which could materially affect our business or future results. Except as set forth below, we are not currently aware of any material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2021 Form 10-K. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in any of such risk factors actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected in a material way. This could cause the trading prices of our securities to decline, perhaps significantly, and you may lose part or all of your investment.

The potential take-private transaction with Paine Schwartz may not occur, may increase the volatility of the market price of our common stock, and will result in certain costs and expenses.

On October 24, 2022, a special committee of the Company’s board of directors agreed with Paine Schwartz to pursue a transaction in which Paine Schwartz would acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the Company, which transaction would be conditioned upon, among other things, approval of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock owned by disinterested stockholders. This proposed transaction is not yet certain and is subject to, among other things, Paine Schwartz’s satisfaction of confirmatory diligence and negotiation and execution of definitive documentation. The potential timing of this proposed transaction, if effected, is not yet known, and no agreement between Paine Schwartz and the Company relating to the proposed transaction will be created unless definitive documentation is executed and delivered by the appropriate parties. There can be no assurance that the proposed transaction will result in a transaction occurring, its timing, or ultimate terms.

The market price of our common stock may reflect various assumptions as to whether the proposed transaction with Paine Schwartz will occur. Variations in the market price of our common stock may occur as a result of changing assumptions regarding the proposed transaction, independent of changes in our business, financial condition or prospects or changes in general market or economic conditions. As a result, the announcement of the execution of a definitive agreement regarding a transaction, or of a failure to reach a definitive agreement regarding a transaction, could result in a significant change in the market price of our common stock.

We expect to incur costs in connection with the consideration of the potential transaction with Paine Schwartz, including costs of financial and legal advisors. Transactions such as the proposed transaction with Paine Schwartz often attract litigation and the Company may be required to expend additional resources defending such litigation. It is difficult to estimate the aggregate amount of such costs, although they could be substantial. In addition, uncertainty associated with the potential transaction could adversely affect the Company's ability to attract, retain and motivate key employees, which could have a negative effect on our operations and business plans.
