• No Executive Performance Bonuses for 2025

  Named Executive Officers (NEOs) received no Variable Pay Plan (VPP) payouts for 2025, as the company failed to meet its financial targets for Revenue ($168.9M vs. threshold <$201.5M) and Adjusted EBITDA ($7.4M vs. threshold <$21.5M).

• Forfeiture of Performance Share Units (PSUs)

  Performance Share Units (PSUs) granted in 2023 were forfeited due to unmet performance targets in 2023, 2024, and 2025, including those held by former President and COO Richard Hunter upon his departure in January 2026.

• Delinquent Insider Trading Reports

  The company disclosed multiple delinquent Section 16(a) reports for directors and an officer in 2025, indicating compliance oversight issues.

• New Shareholder Support Agreement and Board Appointment

  A new 2026 Support Agreement was established with major shareholders 22NW Fund and 726 Entities (who now own approximately 15.0% of outstanding shares), leading to the appointment of Jeremy Gold as a director nominee for 726 Entities effective February 13, 2026.

The definitive proxy statement reveals significant operational underperformance in 2025, as evidenced by the complete absence of Variable Pay Plan (VPP) payouts for Named Executive Officers (NEOs) and the forfeiture of Performance Share Units (PSUs) due to missed financial targets. This directly confirms and quantifies the "significant financial downturn in 2025" previously reported. The company's reported revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 fell below the minimum thresholds required for executive bonuses, signaling ongoing challenges in achieving profitability and growth. Additionally, the disclosure of multiple delinquent Section 16(a) reports for directors and an officer points to weaknesses in internal compliance and reporting. While the new 2026 Support Agreement with major shareholders and the appointment of a new director from a significant investor may offer some governance stability, the overall picture painted by the executive compensation and compliance issues is concerning for investors.
