Note on Accounting Treatment

As a result of the spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. (“Resolute Holdings”) on February 28, 2025 and the execution of the management agreement with Resolute Holdings (the “CompoSecure Management Agreement”), GPGI is required to account for the operating results of its wholly owned operating subsidiary, GPGI Holdings, L.L.C. (“GPGI Holdings”), under the equity method in accordance with U.S. GAAP, effective February 28, 2025. Both the CompoSecure and Husky Technologies business units are under GPGI Holdings.

The GAAP results presented above for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 reflect the conversion to equity method accounting. For clarity of comparisons and to best reflect the financial results, the Company is also presenting the fourth quarter and full year 2025 on a consolidated basis consistent with historical presentation under the “Non-GAAP” headings.

Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including but not limited to statements concerning GPGI’s possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events, results of operations, demand, the implementation and anticipated impacts of the Resolute Operating System, guidance for 2026 and statements relating to growth, margin expansion, and free cash flow generation in 2026, are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements which speak only as of the date hereof. You should understand that the following important factors, among others, could affect GPGI’s future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in GPGI’s forward-looking statements: the ability of GPGI to grow and manage growth profitably, implement the Resolute Operating Sysstem successfully, maintain relationships with customers, compete within its industry and retain its key employees; the possibility that GPGI may be adversely impacted by global economic, business, competitive and/or other factors, including tariffs; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against GPGI or others; future exchange and interest rates; changes in our accounting and/or financial presentation; anticipated demand for the products and services of GPGI’s businesses; the successful implementation of GPGI’s strategies; and other risks and uncertainties, including those under “Risk Factors” in filings that have been made or will be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. GPGI undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Due to the spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. and the resulting shift to equity method accounting under GAAP beginning February 28, 2025, GPGI is presenting a broader set of Non-GAAP measures, including an Adjusted Statement of Operations (Unaudited), an Adjusted Balance Sheet (Unaudited) and an Adjusted Statement of Cash Flows (Unaudited) to provide investors with financial information that we believe allows for greater comparability with our historical financial presentation and better represents the underlying performance of the standalone business across reporting periods. This press release also includes certain additional Non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and that may be different from Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. GPGI believes Non-GAAP Net Sales, Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS (Basic and Diluted), Non-GAAP Cash, Non-GAAP Net Debt, Non-GAAP Net Debt Leverage Ratio and Free Cash Flow, and related measures are useful to investors in evaluating GPGI’s financial performance. Specifically, we believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS (Basic and Diluted) Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income provide valuable insight into operational efficiency independent of capital structure and tax environment; Non-GAAP Net Sales, Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Cash, Non-GAAP Net Debt, Non-GAAP Net Debt Leverage Ratio and Free Cash Flow offer investors a clearer view of ongoing profitability by excluding non-recurring and non-operational items; and related measures provide greater comparability with GPGI’s historical results, following the change in accounting presentation required as a result of the spin-off of Resolute Holdings. Furthermore, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted Net Sales, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Non-GAAP Year-end Net LTM Leverage further adjust for GPGI’s acquisition of Husky Technologies, which was completed in January 2026. GPGI uses these Non-GAAP measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, as well as evaluate its underlying historical performance and/or measure incentive compensation. We believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures depict the true performance of the business by encompassing only relevant and controllable events, enabling GPGI to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. These Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing GPGI’s financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of GPGI’s liquidity. These Non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled Non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Additionally, GPGI’s debt agreements contain covenants based on variations of certain of these measures for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. GPGI believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that its management uses in analyzing operating results. Please refer to the tables below for the reconciliation of GAAP measures to these Non-GAAP measures. Due to the forward-looking nature of the financial guidance included above under “Full Year 2026 Outlook,” the charges excluded from the forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures including Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted Net Sales, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Non-GAAP Year-end Net LTM Leverage including with respect to depreciation, amortization, interest, and taxes that would be required to reconcile the Non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures are inherently uncertain or difficult to predict, so it is not feasible to provide accurate forecasted Non-GAAP reconciliations without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included, and no reconciliation of the forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures is included.
