NOTE 1.   DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Note 1 Nature of Operations

One Madison Corporation (the “Company”We are a leading provider of environmentally sustainable, systems-based, product protection solutions and end-of-line automation solutions for e-commerce and industrial supply chains. Through our proprietary protective packaging solutions (“PPS”) systems and paper consumables, we offer a full suite of protective packaging solutions. Our business is global, with a blank check company incorporatedstrong presence in the Cayman IslandsUnited States and Europe. Throughout this report, when we refer to “Ranpak,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us,” we are referring to Ranpak Holdings Corp. and all of our subsidiaries, except where the context indicates otherwise.

Note 2 Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for each of the three years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, which are included in our Annual Report on July 13, 2017. The Company was formedForm 10-K for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses that the Company has not yet identifiedyear ended December 31, 2023 (“Initial Business Combination”2023 10-K”). Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating its Initial Business Combination, the Company intends to focus on North American or Western European Consumer Products related businesses with a particular sub-focus on companies in one of the following categories: (i) consumer products or services, (ii) food and beverage and (iii) adjacent manufacturing or industrial services businesses linked to a consumer end-user. The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act,” as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”).

At March 31, 2018, the Company had not yet commenced operations. All activity for the three months ended March 31, 2018 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Public Offering”) described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of its Initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31st as its fiscal year end.

On January 22, 2018, the Company consummated the initial Public Offering of 30,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share, included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) generating gross proceeds of $300,000,000 which is described in Note 3. The Company’s founder, Omar M. Asali, the other Anchor Investors (as defined below) and certain entities affiliated with The Blackstone Group L.P. (the “BSOF Entities”) purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per warrant, or approximately $8,000,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering (the “Private Placement”). The Private Placement Warrants are included in additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet.

Trust Account

The proceeds held in the U.S. based trust account at JP. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee (“Trust Account”), will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred eighty (180) days or less or in money market funds that meet certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and that invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. Funds will remain in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Initial Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account proceeds as described below. The remaining proceeds outside the Trust Account2024 may be usedfurther referred to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

The Company’s amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay income taxes, if any, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any Class A ordinary shares included in the Units (the “Public Shares”) sold in the Public Offering that have been properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of such Class A ordinary shares if it does not complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering; and (iii) the redemption of 100% of the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold in the Public Offering if the Company is unable to complete an Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, (subject to the requirements of law). The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders. 

6

Initial Business Combination

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Public Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating an Initial Business Combination. The Initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the Initial Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect an Initial Business Combination.

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for an Initial Business Combination, will either (i) seek shareholder approval of the Initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Initial Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable, or (ii) provide shareholders with the opportunity to sell their Public Shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a shareholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of the Initial Business Combination or will allow shareholders to sell their Public Shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors suchherein as the timing“first quarter of 2024.” The three months ended March 31, 2023 may be further referred to herein as the transaction and whether the terms“first quarter of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek shareholder approval, unless a vote is required by law or under NASDAQ rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval, it will complete its Initial Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company, voted are voted in favor of the Initial Business Combination. However, in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related Initial Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Initial Business Combination.2023.”

If the Company holds a shareholder vote or there is a tender offer for shares in connection with an Initial Business Combination, a public shareholder will have the right to redeem its shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. As a result, such Class A ordinary shares are recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands’ law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Company’s sponsor, the BSOF Entities and the Anchor Investors, together with any permitted transferees (collectively, the “initial shareholders”), have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares (as defined below) held by them if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months of the closing of the Public Offering. However, if initial shareholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within the prescribed time period. 

7

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company after an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s shareholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of shares, if any, having preference over the ordinary shares. The Company’s shareholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the ordinary shares, except that the Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination, subject to the limitations described herein.

NOTE 2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presentedhave been prepared in U.S. dollars in conformityaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuantwith instructions to the accountingForm 10-Q and disclosure rules and regulationsRule 10-01 of the SEC,Securities and reflectExchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X as they apply to interim financial information. Accordingly, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in our opinion, include all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, whichthat are in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of March 31, 2018 and the resultsstatement of operations and cash flowsfinancial position for the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included inThe interim financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for a fullany other interim period or the fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction withinclude the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K filed byaccounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries prepared in conformity with the SEC on March 29, 2018U.S. GAAP. All intercompany balances and with the audited balance sheet includedtransactions have been eliminated in the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on January 22, 2018.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as definedconsolidation. All amounts are in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act,millions, except share and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.per share amounts.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. 

Use of estimates

Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

8

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near-term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Foreign Currency — The nature of business activities involves the management of various financial and market risks, including those estimates.related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We are subject to currency translation exposure because the operations of our subsidiaries are measured in their functional currency, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the subsidiary operates. Any currency balances that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary are re-measured into the functional currency, with the resulting gain or loss recorded in foreign currency (gains) losses in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In turn, subsidiary income statement balances that are denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars (“USD”) are translated into USD, our reporting currency, in consolidation using the average exchange rate in effect during each fiscal month during the period, with any related gain or loss recorded as foreign currency translation adjustments in other comprehensive income (loss). The assets and liabilities of subsidiaries that use functional currencies other than the USD are translated into USD in consolidation using period end exchange rates, with the effects of foreign currency translation adjustments included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Revenue Recognition — Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using a five-step model consisting of the following: (i) identify the contract with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. Performance obligations are satisfied when we transfer control of a good or service to a customer, which can occur over time or at a point in time. The amount of revenue recognized is based on the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, including the expected value of variable consideration. The customer’s ability and intent to pay the transaction price is assessed in determining whether a contract exists with the customer. If collectability of substantially all of the consideration in a contract is not probable, consideration received is not recognized as revenue unless the

6


Ranpak Holdings Corp.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(in millions, except share and per share data)

consideration is nonrefundable and we no longer have an obligation to transfer additional goods or services to the customer or collectability becomes probable.

We sell our PPS products to end-users primarily through an established distributor network and direct sales to select end-users. For both customer types, the customer is granted the right to use our machine(s) for which we charge an annual or quarterly fixed fee or may waive the fee at management’s discretion. Our revenue associated with our PPS business contains (i) a non-lease component (the paper consumables) accounted for as revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), and (ii) a lease component (our PPS systems) accounted for as machine lease revenue under ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Machine lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the PPS systems agreements with customers, which have durations of less than one year.

In paper consumables sales for both distributor agreements and direct agreements, we have determined the contract to be a combination of the master service agreement (“MSA”) and purchase order (“PO”). The MSA contains general terms and conditions which govern the agreement, including general payment terms. Individual PO’s must be placed underneath the terms of the MSA to order specific paper products which we promise to deliver. The PO contains relevant details of the contract including the type of paper, quantity, unit price, total price, as well as payment terms and estimated delivery date. Under the MSA, multiple PO’s for one customer may be placed at or near the same time. In situations where there are multiple PO’s issued at or near the same time to the same customer, we treat each PO in combination with the MSA as a separate contract for revenue recognition purposes.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue for paper consumables is recognized based on shipping terms, which is the point in time the customer obtains control of the promised goods. Maintenance revenue is based on a fixed fee that is recognized straight-line on the basis that the level of effort is consistent over the term of the contract.

We determine the standalone selling price for a performance obligation sold on a standalone basis. We offer rebates to customers in their contracts that are related to the amount of consumables purchased. We believe that this form of variable consideration should only be allocated to consumables because the entire amount of variable consideration relates to the customer’s purchase of and our efforts to provide consumables. We allocate a percentage of PPS paper revenue to machine lease revenue using the residual approach to estimate the standalone selling price of our PPS systems to customers. The allocation is performed based on the number of PPS systems in the field. We do not sell or transfer ownership of our PPS systems to our customers. Our lease agreements with customer for PPS systems are for one year or less and renew annually.

We have forms of variable consideration present in our contracts with customers, including rebates and other discounts. Charges for rebates and other allowances were approximately 12% and 14% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For all contracts that contain a form of variable consideration, we estimate at contract inception, and periodically throughout the term of the contract, what volume of goods and/or services the customer will purchase in a given period and determine how much consideration is payable to the customer or how much consideration we would be able to recover from the customer based on the structure of the type of variable consideration, using either the expected value method or the most likely amount method. In most cases, the variable consideration in contracts with customers results in amounts payable to the customer by the Company. We adjust the contract transaction price based on any changes in estimates each reporting period and perform an inception to date cumulative adjustment to the amount of revenue previously recognized. We include in the transaction price some or all of an amount of variable consideration estimated to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

To provide Automation solution goods and services, an agreement is documented and agreed to between Ranpak and the customer. This is in the form of a proposal contract for automation machines with separate proposals for related goods and services. Typically, machines have their own proposal, and other related goods and services such as preventative maintenance, and spare parts have a separate proposal with these goods and services all detailed. These written agreements outline the terms and conditions for respective transactions between us and our customers and represent contracts with enforceable rights. For each type of contract, there are various levels of termination provisions for each party.

We recognize revenue from each Automation product separately, on a contract-by-contract basis (i.e., by individual machine). Each contract represents its own unit of accounting. Our Automation machines are highly customized to customer specific needs and termination is only allowed in the case of breach of contract. As such, we are entitled to all consideration from the production of the machine. We cannot sell the machine to another customer due to the level of customization and, as such, there is not an alternative use for the product produced. Because of these factors, we recognize machine revenue over time on a contract-by-contract basis using an

7


Ranpak Holdings Corp.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(in millions, except share and per share data)

input method, based on the percentage of costs and effort incurred to complete the construction of the machine. We also sell extended warranties, preventative maintenance services, spare parts and spare part packages related to our sale of Automation products. We recognize revenue on maintenance contracts and spare parts separately from their Automation products. Revenue for the sale of spare parts is recognized based on shipping terms, which is the point in time the customer obtains control of the promised goods. Maintenance revenue is based on a fixed fee that is recognized straight-line on the basis that the level of effort is consistent over the term of the contract.

We recognize incremental costs to obtain a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that otherwise would have been recognized is one year or less. For example, we generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the contract term is less than one year. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment activities.

Sales, value-added, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenue on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets, net — Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. Trademarks and trade names are accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets and, accordingly, are not subject to amortization. We review goodwill on a reporting unit basis and indefinite-lived assets for impairment annually on October 1st and on an interim basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets may be impaired.

As of March 31, 2024, there were no indicators to suggest that it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units and indefinite-lived assets were below their carrying values.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards — In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). This ASU is intended to improve financial reporting by providing additional disclosures regarding a company’s segment expenses and more detailed and timely segment information reporting throughout the fiscal period. The amendment requires companies to disclose, on an interim and annual basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Making (“CODM”), report an “other segment items” category which represents the difference between segment revenue less the significant expenses along with a description of composition, clarify if the CODM uses more than one measure of a segment’s profit or loss, and disclose the title and position of the CODM along with an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures. All annual disclosures required by Topic 280, Segment Reporting, will also be required for all interim periods. The amendment does not change how a company identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of the future adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which will require us to provide a tabular rate reconciliation that reconciles income tax attributable to continuing operations to the statutory federal income tax applied to our pre-tax income from continuing operations, including the nature and amount of significant reconciling items, and will require disclosure of additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 will become effective for us for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of future adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 Segment and Geographic Information

We have determined we have two operating segments which are aggregated into one reportable segment, Ranpak. Our CODM assesses the Company’s performance and allocates resources based on the Company’s consolidated financial information. The aggregation of the two operating segments is based on the Company’s determination that the operating segments have similar economic characteristics, and are similar in all of the following areas: the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, the type or class of customer for their products or services, and the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services. The operating segments were aggregated for purposes of determining whether segments meet the quantitative threshold for separate reporting.

We attribute revenue and gross profit to individual countries based on the selling location. The following table presents our revenue by geographic location:

Note 5 Contracts with Customers

Deferred Revenue and Contract Balances — Deferred revenue primarily represents contractual amounts received from customers that exceed revenue recognized for automation equipment sales. Our enforceable contractual obligations have durations of less than one year and are included in current liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets arise as revenue is recognized prior to billing the customer in accordance with the terms of the contract. The following table presents our contract assets and contract liabilities as of the period ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Note 7 Long-Term Debt

CashIn 2019, the Company entered into a First Lien Credit Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), which consists of senior secured credit facilities of a $378.2 million USD-denominated first lien term facility (the “First Lien Dollar Term Facility”), a €140.0 million ($144.3 million equivalent) euro-denominated first lien term facility (the “First Lien Euro Term Facility” and, marketable securities heldtogether with the First Lien Dollar Term Facility, the “First Lien Term Facility”) and a $45.0 million revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility” and together with the First Lien Term Facility, the “Facilities”). The First Lien Term Facility matures in Trust AccountJune 2026 and the Revolving Facility matures in June 2025. Borrowings under the Facilities, at our option, bear interest at either (1) an adjusted eurocurrency rate or the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), or (2) a base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is 3.75% with respect to eurocurrency borrowings or SOFR borrowings, as applicable, and 2.75% with respect to base rate borrowings, in each case assuming a first lien net leverage ratio of less than 5.00:1.00, subject to a leverage-based step-up to an applicable margin equal to 4.00% for eurocurrency borrowings and SOFR borrowings, as applicable, and 3.00% with respect to base rate borrowings. The interest rate for the First Lien Dollar Term Facility as

of March 31, 2018, assets held2024 and December 31, 2023, was 9.43% and 9.44%, respectively. The interest rate for the First Lien Euro Term Facility as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was 7.86% and 7.86%, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility includes borrowing capacity available for standby letters of credit of up to $5.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, we had $3.6 million committed to outstanding letters of credit, leaving net availability under the Revolving Facility at $41.4 million.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on certain of the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt and liens or undergo certain fundamental changes, as well as certain financial tests and ratios. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 31, 2024. The Credit Agreement also has customary mandatory prepayment provisions, including the requirement for the borrowers under the Credit Agreement to apply excess cash flow to mandatorily prepay term loans under the Credit Agreement.

Fees due upon repayment of the Term Loans and Revolving Loan are as follows (in each case outstanding and effective as of the time of such payment):

If the repayment occurs after December 31, 2023, but prior to June 30, 2024 (the “Exit Payment Date”), 0.75% of the Initial Revolving Credit Commitments and Outstanding Term Loans outstanding at such time; or
If the repayment occurs after the Exit Payment Date, 1.00% of the Initial Revolving Credit Commitments and Outstanding Term Loans outstanding at such time.

As the Company expects repayment to occur after the Exit Payment Date, the Company has recorded fees equal to 1.00% of the Facilities, or approximately $5 million. These fees are included within the related balances of debt and deferred financing fees as of March 31, 2024. The Company evaluated the amendments to the Credit Agreement entered into during the second quarter of 2023, and determined that there were no provisions requiring bifurcation and treatment as a derivative, and that the transaction constituted a modification rather than an extinguishment.

Note 8 Derivative Instruments

We use derivatives as part of the normal business operations to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates associated with variable interest rate debt and fluctuations in foreign currency translation associated with our global business presence.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

In January 2019, we entered into a business combination contingent interest rate swap in a notional amount of $200.0 million (the “January 2019 Swap”) to hedge part of the floating interest rate exposure under the First Lien Dollar Term Facility. The January 2019 Swap economically converts a portion of the variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. In September 2019, we amended the January 2019 Swap to extend its term to mature on June 1, 2023 and lower the rate to 2.31% (the “Amended January 2019 Swap”). We concurrently entered into an incremental $50.0 million notional swap at 1.5%, which matured on June 1, 2023 (the “September 2019 Swap”). We designated both the Amended January 2019 Swap and the September 2019 Swap as cash flow hedges and applied hedge accounting. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us

Changes in fair value are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the Trust Account were comprised of $54,433 in cashsame period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

In March 2020, the Amended January 2019 Swap was further amended to lower the rate to 2.1% and $300,680,940 in U.S. Treasury Bills.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subjectextend the Companymaturity to concentration of credit risk consist ofJune 1, 2024 (the “Second Amended January 2019 Swap”). We designated the Second Amended January 2019 Swap as a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceedflow hedge and applied hedge accounting.

Cross Currency Swap Agreements

In November 2022, we entered into a fixed-to-fixed cross-currency rate swap contract between the Euro and U.S. dollar to protect the value of our investments in our foreign operations against adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates and that we designated as a hedge and accounted for as a net investment hedge (the “November 2022 Swap”). At the spot exchange rate of 1.0205, we converted notional amounts of approximately $80.0 million at 5.84% for €78.4 million at 3.95%. The component of the gains and losses on this account and management believesour net investment in these designated foreign operations driven by changes in foreign exchange rates are economically partly offset by movements in the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fairfair value of financial instruments

our cross-currency swap contracts. The fair value of the Company’s assetsswaps is calculated each period, with changes in fair value recorded in currency translation in other comprehensive income (loss) and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Deferred offering costs

The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A— “Expenses of Offering.” Deferred offering costs of approximately $1,727,000 consist principally of costs incurred in connection with the Public Offering. These costs, together with the underwriters’ discounts and commissions in the Public Offering, were charged to additional paid-in capital upon completionaccumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Components of the Public Offering.

Redeemable Ordinary Shares

As discussed in Note 1, all of the 30,000,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as parts of the Units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such shares under the Company’s amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. In accordance with FASB ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, areNovember 2022 Swap excluded from the provisionsassessment of FASB ASC 480. Althougheffectiveness are amortized out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and into interest expense over the Company has not specified a maximum redemption threshold, its amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that in no event will the Company redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying valuelife of the securityNovember 2022 Swap to maturity on June 1, 2024.

The following table summarizes the endtotal fair values of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable Class A ordinary shares shall be affected by charges against additional paid in capital.

Accordingly, at March 31, 2018, 28,541,545 of 30,000,000 Class A ordinary shares included in the Units were classified outside of permanent equity.

Private Placement Warrants

Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of the Company's Class A ordinary share or one whole Class C ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. A portion of the purchase price of the Private Placement Warrants has been added to the proceeds from the Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account such that at the closing of the Public Offering, $300.0 million was held in the Trust Account. If the Initial Business Combination is not completed within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the initial anchor investors or the BSOF Entities who purchased such warrants or their respective permitted transferees.

Income taxes 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existingderivative assets and liabilities and theirthe respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable incomeclassification in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

There were no unrecognized tax benefitscondensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2018. FASB ASC 740 prescribes2024 and December 31, 2023. The net amount of derivatives can be reconciled to the tabular disclosure of fair value in Note 10, “Fair Value Measurement”:

Note 10 Fair Value Measurement

Financial instruments are required to be categorized within a valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured and classified in accordance with a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the observability of the inputs available in the market used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 — Inputs that are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques such as discounted cash flows for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be derived from observable market data.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activities. No financial instruments were measured using unobservable inputs.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents (primarily consisting of bank deposits and a money market fund), accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The interest rate swaps are valued utilizing an income approach, which discounts future cash flow based upon current market expectations and adjustments for credit risk, each of which are considered Level 2 inputs. The cross-currency swap is valued utilizing forward and spot prices for currencies and SOFR forward curves, as applicable, which are considered Level 2 inputs. We measure equity investments without readily determinable fair values on a nonrecurring basis. The fair values of these investments are determined based upon valuation techniques using the best information available, which may include quoted market prices, and market comparables.

The following table provides the carrying amounts, estimated fair values and the respective fair value measurements of our financial instruments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Note 11 Income Taxes

For each interim reporting period, we make an estimate of the effective tax rate we expect to be applicable for the full year for our operations. This estimated effective tax rate is used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis. Our effective tax rate was as follows:

Ranpak Holdings Corp.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(in millions, except share and per share data)

The fluctuation in the effective tax rate over the periods presented above was primarily attributable to a tax expense of $0.7 million and $1.2 million related to stock-based compensation shortfall recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate is less than the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to stock-based compensation adjustments.

Note 12 — Leases

We have operating and finance leases for automobiles, machinery, equipment, warehouses, and office buildings. Our leases have remaining terms ranging from less than one year to 15 years, some of which include options to extend the leases from one to five years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within one year.

Note 13 Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

On an ongoing basis, we assess the potential liabilities related to any lawsuits or claims brought against us. While it is typically very difficult to determine the timing and ultimate outcome of these actions, we use our best judgment to determine if it is probable that we will incur an expense related to the settlement or final adjudication of these matters and whether a reasonable estimation of the probable loss, if any, can be made. In assessing probable losses, we make estimates of the amount of insurance recoveries, if any. We accrue a liability when we believe a loss is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Due to the inherent uncertainties related to the eventual outcome of litigation and potential insurance recovery, it is possible that disputed matters may be resolved for amounts materially different from any provisions or disclosures that we have previously made. We expense legal costs as incurred.

We are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Management evaluates each claim and provides for potential loss when the claim is probable to be paid and reasonably estimable. While adverse decisions in certain of these litigation matters, claims and administrative proceedings could have a material effect on a particular period’s results of operations, subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities, management believes that any future accruals with respect to these currently known contingencies would not have a material effect on the financial condition, liquidity or cash flows of the Company. There are no amounts required to be reflected in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements related to contingencies for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Environmental Matters

Our operations are subject to extensive and changing U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as the laws of other countries that establish health and environmental quality standards. These standards, among others, relate to air and water pollutants and the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes. We are exposed to potential liability for personal injury or property damage caused by any release, spill, exposure or other accident involving such pollutants, substances or wastes. There are no amounts required to be reflected in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements related to environmental contingencies.

Management believes the Company is currentlyin compliance, in all material respects, with environmental laws and regulations and maintains insurance coverage to mitigate exposure to environmental liabilities. Management does not awarebelieve any environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future consolidated results of any issues under reviewoperations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 15 — Earnings (Loss) Per Ordinaryper Share

Net incomeBasic earnings (loss) per ordinary share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicableavailable to ordinary sharescommon stockholders by the weighted averageweighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding forduring the period. The Company has not consideredperiod, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to the potential dilution, if any, that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, using the more dilutive of the warrants soldtwo-class method or if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes potential shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. If there is a net loss in any period, basic and diluted EPS are computed in the initial public offering and Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 28,541,545 Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. As a result, dilutedsame manner.

The two-class method determines net income (loss) per common share is the same as basic for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires

income (loss) per ordinary shareavailable to common shareholders for the period.

The Company’s statementperiod to be allocated between different classes of operations includes a presentation ofcommon stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. We apply the two-class method for EPS when computing net income (loss) per share for ordinary shares subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method. Net income (loss) per ordinary share, basic and diluted for Class A ordinary share is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the trust account, net of any applicable income tax expense, by the weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding for the period from the issuance of such shares through March 31, 2018. Net loss per ordinary share, basic and diluted for Class B ordinary shares is calculated by dividing the net income, less income attributable to Class A ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding for the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3.   PUBLIC OFFERING

In the Public Offering, the Company sold 30,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Units”). The Anchor Investors and the BSOF Entities purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the completion of the Public Offering.

Each Unit consists of one of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value, and one-half of one warrant (each, a “Warrant” and, collectively, the “Warrants”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. No fractional shares will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade. Each Warrant will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants in whole and not in part at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, if and only if the last sale price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sent the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders.

The Company paid an underwriting discount of 2.0% of the per Unit offering price to the underwriters at the closing of the Public Offering, with an additional fee (the “Deferred Discount”) of 3.5% of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the Company’s completion of an Initial Business Combination. The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Initial Business Combination.

10

NOTE 4.   PRIVATE PLACEMENT

The Anchor Investors and the BSOF Entities, including Mr. Asali, purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per warrant ($8,000,000 in aggregate) in a private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share or Class C ordinary share at $11.50 per share. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

NOTE 5.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On July 18, 2017, the Company issued 8,625,000 shares of Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000. This number included an aggregate of up to 1,125,000 shares that were subject to forfeiture as the over-allotment option was not exercised by the underwriters (Note 6). In October 2017, the Company issued 3,750,000 Founder Shares to certain investors, including Mr. Asali and the Company’s other executive officers, (collectively, the “Anchor Investors”), for $0.01 per share in connection with the forward purchase agreements prior to the offering. On January 22, 2018, the Sponsor transferred 525,000 founder shares to BSOF Master Fund L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, and BSOF Master Fund II L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, both affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. (together, the “BSOF Entities”). The Sponsor currently owns 6,975,000 Class B ordinary shares. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares (or Class C ordinary shares, at the election of the holder) upon the consummation of an Initial Business Combination at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares and Class C ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of  (i) the total number of Public Shares, plus (ii) the sum of  (a) the total number of Class A ordinary shares and Class C ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination (including forward purchase shares, but not forward purchase warrants), excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Initial Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, minus (b) the number of Public Shares redeemed by Public Shareholders in connection with the Initial Business Combination.common shares.

The Sponsor, its controlled affiliates and any director, officer or employee of the Sponsor who is also serving in any such role or position at the Company, including Mr. Asali (each, a “sponsor-affiliate”provided that such term does not refer to any of the Company’s non-executive directors), have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares and any Class A ordinary shares or Class C shares issued upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of: (a) the third anniversary after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or (b) the waiver of such restrictions on transfer by Anchor Investors representing over 50.0% of the Forward Purchase Shares (except to certain permitted transferees and subject to certain exceptions). The initial shareholders (other than the Sponsor, its controlled affiliates or any sponsor-affiliate) have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares and any Class A ordinary shares or Class C ordinary shares issued upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction after the Initial Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s ordinary shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property (except to certain permitted transferees and subject to certain exceptions). Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the initial shareholders with respect to any Founder Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Initial Business Combination, the Founder Shares held by the initial shareholders (other than the Sponsor’s Founder Shares that are subject to the earnout condition in the Securities Subscription Agreement, between the Company and the Sponsor, as amended) will be released from the lock-up.

In November 2017, the Company amended the Securities Subscription Agreement dated July 18, 2017 to include an “earnout” clause which requires the forfeiture of certain Founder Shares by the Sponsor under certain circumstances as described in the agreement.

11

In January 2018, the Sponsor transferred 240,000 Founder Shares to the Company’s independent directors at their original purchase price.

In March 2018, the Underwriters’ over-allotment option expired and as a result the Sponsor forfeited 1,125,000 Class B ordinary shares. This forfeiture is reflected in the accompanying statement of changes in shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2018.

Promissory Note — Related Party

The Sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $200,000 to be used for the payment of costs related to the Public Offering. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and was due on the earlier of March 31, 2018 or the closing of the Public Offering. The Company repaid the loan from the proceeds of the Public Offering not being placed in the Trust Account.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection2019, upon the closing of Ranpak’s business combination with One Madison Corporation, Ranpak entered into a shared services agreement (the “Shared Services Agreement”) with an Initial Business Combination, an affiliate ofentity controlled by our chief executive officer, One Madison Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Sponsor may but is not obligatedprovide, or cause to loanbe provided, certain services to Ranpak. The Shared Services Agreement provides for a broad array of potential services, including administrative and “back office” or corporate-type services and requires Ranpak to indemnify the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes an Initial Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that an Initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans, other than the interest on such proceeds that may be released for working capital purposes. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of an Initial Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

Overview

Ranpak is a leading provider of environmentally sustainable, systems-based, product protection and end-of-line automation solutions for e-commerce and industrial supply chains. Since our inception in 1972, we have delivered high quality protective packaging solutions, while maintaining commitment to environmental sustainability. We provide our paper-based Protective Packaging Solutions (“PPS”) systems and paper consumables to our distributors and certain select end-users. We operate manufacturing facilities in the United States and Europe. For our Automation product lines, we currently have dedicated facilities in Shelton, Connecticut and the Netherlands. R Squared Robotics, a division of Ranpak, uses three-dimensional computer vision and artificial intelligence technologies to improve end-of-line packaging and logistics functions. We also maintain sales and administrative offices in Brazil, France, the Czech Republic, China, Japan, and Singapore. We are a global business that generated approximately 59% of our 2023 net revenue outside of the United States.

As of March 31, 2024, we had an installed base of approximately 140.8 thousand PPS systems serving a diverse set of distributors and end-users. We generated net revenue of $85.3 million and $81.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Key Performance Indicators and Other Factors Affecting Performance

We use the following key performance indicators and monitor the following other Securitiesfactors to analyze our business performance, determine financial forecasts, and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. Such forward looking statements are based onhelp develop long-term strategic plans.

PPS Systems Base — We closely track the beliefsnumber of management,PPS systems installed with end-users as it is a leading indicator of underlying business trends and near-term and ongoing net sales expectations.

Paper and Other Costs. Paper is a key component of our cost of goods sold and paper costs can fluctuate significantly between periods. We purchase both 100% virgin and 100% recycled paper, as well as assumptions madeblends, from various suppliers for conversion into the paper consumables we sell. The cost of paper supplies is our largest input cost, and we historically have negotiated supply and pricing arrangements with most of our paper suppliers annually, with a view towards mitigating fluctuations in paper cost. Nevertheless, as paper is a commodity, its price on the open market, and in turn the prices we negotiate with suppliers at a given point in time, can fluctuate significantly, and is affected by several factors outside of our control, including inflationary pressures, supply and information currently availabledemand and the cost of other commodities that are used in the manufacture of paper, including wood, energy, and chemicals. The market for our solutions is competitive and it may be difficult to pass on increases in paper prices to our management. No assurance can be given that resultscustomers immediately, or at all, which has in any forward-looking statementthe past, and could in the future, adversely affect our operating results. Although we look to pass increased market costs on to our customers to mitigate the impact of these costs, we are unable to predict our ability to pass these costs on to our customers and how much of these increases we will be achievedable to pass on to our customers. As such, we expect some continued pressure on our gross margin in the medium term relative to our historical margin profile.

Effect of Currency Fluctuations. As a result of the geographic diversity of our operations, we are exposed to the effects of currency translation, which has affected the comparability of our results of operations between the periods presented in this report and actualmay

affect the comparability of our results couldof operations in future periods. Currency transaction exposure results when we generate net revenue in one currency at one time and incur expenses in another currency at another time, or when we realize gain or loss on intercompany transfers. While we seek to limit currency transaction exposure by matching the currencies in which we incur sales and expenses, we may not always be affected by oneable to do so.

In addition, we are subject to currency translation exposure because the operations of our subsidiaries are measured in their functional currency, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the subsidiary operates. Any currency balances that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary are re-measured into the functional currency, with the resulting gain or more factors, which could cause themloss recorded in the foreign currency (gains) losses line-item in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In turn, subsidiary income statement balances that are denominated in currencies other than USD are translated into USD, our reporting currency, in consolidation using the average exchange rate in effect during each fiscal month during the period, with any related gain or loss recorded as foreign currency translation adjustments in other comprehensive income (loss). The assets and liabilities of subsidiaries that use functional currencies other than the USD are translated into USD in consolidation using period end exchange rates, with the effects of foreign currency translation adjustments included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

We hedge some of our exposure to differ materially. The cautionary statements madeforeign currency translation with a cross-currency swap. Refer to Note 8 - Derivative Instruments to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information. Significant currency fluctuations could impact the comparability of results between periods, while such fluctuations coupled with material mismatches in net revenue and expenses could also adversely impact our cash flows. See “Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Inflationary Pressures and Other Costs. We have continued to experience inflationary pressures in 2024, which have adversely impacted some of our end-users, such as automotive companies; distributors; electronic manufacturers; machinery manufacturers; home goods manufacturers; e-commerce and mail order fulfillment firms; and other end-users that are particularly sensitive to reductions in business and consumer spending by their respective customers, and which in turn have impacted our net revenue. Higher costs due to inflation were partially offset by price increases, which mitigated the impact on our operating results. However, our ability to predict or further offset inflationary cost increases in the future or during economic downturns or recessions may be limited or impacted by heightened competition for net revenue, an unwillingness by our customers to accept price increase or pressure to reduce selling prices if end-users reduce their volume of purchases. Inflationary pressures and associated increases in interest rates and borrowing costs may also impact the ability of some of our end-users and suppliers to obtain funds for operations and capital expenditures, which could negatively impact our ability to obtain necessary supplies as well as the sales of materials and equipment to affected end-users. This could also result in reduced or delayed collections of outstanding accounts receivable from end-users, which could impact our cash flows. As a result, to the extent inflationary pressures continue, we expect additional pressure on our net revenue and gross margin. We will continue to evaluate the impact of inflationary pressures on our profitability and cash flows as well as our end-users.

Seasonality. Approximately 30% of our net revenue in 2023, either directly or to distributors, was destined for end-users in the e-commerce sectors, whose businesses frequently follow traditional retail seasonal trends, including a concentration of sales in the holiday period in the fourth quarter. Our results tend to follow similar patterns, with the highest net revenue typically recorded in our fourth fiscal quarter and the slowest sales in our first fiscal quarter of each fiscal year. We expect this seasonality to continue in the future and, as a result, our results of operations between fiscal quarters in a given year may not be directly comparable.

Results of Operations

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. We have, however, also presented below Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”), which are non-GAAP financial measures. We have included EBITDA and AEBITDA because they are key measures used by our management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short- and long-term operational plans. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating EBITDA and AEBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our primary business operations. Adjusting AEBITDA for comparability for constant currency also assists in this comparison as it allows a better insight into the performance of our businesses that operate in currencies other than our reporting currency. Before consolidation, our Europe/Asia financial data is derived in Euros. To calculate the adjustment that we apply to present AEBITDA on a constant currency basis, we multiply this Euro-derived data by 1.15 to reflect an exchange rate of 1 Euro to 1.15 USD, which we believe is a reasonable exchange rate to use to give a stable depiction of the business without currency fluctuations between periods, to calculate Europe/Asia data in constant currency USD. An exchange rate of 1.15 approximates the average exchange rate of the Euro to USD over the past five years. We also present non-GAAP constant currency net revenue and derive it in the same manner. We believe that EBITDA and AEBITDA provide useful

24


information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.

However, EBITDA and AEBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In particular, EBITDA and AEBITDA should not be readviewed as substitutes for, or superior to, net income (loss) prepared in accordance with GAAP as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Some of these limitations are:

although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being applicabledepreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and AEBITDA do not reflect all forward-lookingcash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
EBITDA and AEBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
AEBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of equity-based compensation;
EBITDA and AEBITDA do not reflect the impact of the recording or release of valuation allowances or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
AEBITDA does not take into account any restructuring and integration costs;
AEBITDA is presented on a constant currency basis and gives effect to the impact of currency fluctuations
while EBITDA for all periods herein has been reported without giving effect to constant currency adjustments, we have previously presented EBITDA on a constant currency basis, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure to certain of our historical results that are not presented in this report; and
other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate EBITDA and AEBITDA differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.

EBITDA — EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: benefit from (provision for) income taxes; interest expense; and depreciation and amortization.

AEBITDA — AEBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we present on a constant currency basis and calculate as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: benefit from (provision for) income taxes; interest expense; depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense; and, in certain periods, certain other income and expense items; as further adjusted to reflect the performance of the business on a constant currency basis.

In addition, in our discussion below, we include certain other unaudited, non-GAAP constant currency data for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. This data is based on our historical financial statements whenever they appearincluded elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. For these statements, we claimReport on Form 10-Q, adjusted (where applicable) to reflect a constant currency presentation between periods for the protectionconvenience of readers. We reconcile this data to our GAAP data for the same period under “Presentation and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The following tables set forth our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 with line items presented in millions of dollars.

Net revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was $85.3 million compared to $81.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $4.1 million or 5.0% year over year. Net revenue was positively impacted by increases in void-fill and other products, as well as a currency benefit of 0.7%, partially offset by decreases in cushioning and wrapping. Cushioning decreased $0.3 million, or 0.8%, to $37.3 million from $37.6 million; void-fill increased $2.9 million, or 9.6%, to $33.1 million from $30.2 million; wrapping decreased $0.7 million, or 7.5%, to $8.6 million from $9.3 million; and other sales increased $2.2 million, or 53.7%, to $6.3 million from $4.1 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023. Other net revenue includes automated box sizing equipment and non-paper revenue from packaging systems installed in the field, such as systems accessories. The increase in net revenue is quantified by an increase in the volume of sales of our paper consumable products of approximately 5.3% and an increase of 2.7% in sales of automated box sizing equipment, partially offset by a 3.6% decrease in the price or mix of our paper consumable products. Constant currency net revenue was $88.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, a 4.4% increase from $84.8 million for the first quarter of 2023.

Net revenue in North America for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $31.9 million compared to $31.1 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase of $0.8 million, or 2.6%, was primarily attributable to increases in void-fill and other sales, partially offset by decreases in cushioning and wrapping.

Net revenue in Europe/Asia for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $53.4 million compared to $50.1 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase of $3.3 million, or 6.6%, was driven by increases from void-fill, wrapping and other sales, partially offset by a decrease in cushioning. Constant currency net revenue in Europe/Asia was $56.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, a $2.9 million, or 5.4%, increase from $53.7 million for the first quarter of 2023.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $53.0 million, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 1.3%, compared to $53.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. The change was primarily due to lower input costs, offset by higher PPS volumes and currency headwinds of approximately 0.7% of the safe harborpercentage increase over the prior year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)

SG&A for forward-looking statements containedthe first quarter of 2024 was $27.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 2.6%, from $27.2 million in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Actual results could differ materiallyfirst quarter of 2023. The increase in SG&A was primarily attributable to increased employee compensation costs of $2.2 million, increased temporary labor costs of $0.7 million, increased bad debt expense of $0.7 million, increased third-party professional fees of $0.5 million, and $0.2 million from those contemplatedincreased currency rate fluctuations compared to the first quarter of 2023. The increased costs were partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expense of $1.5 million. Increased costs from currency rate fluctuations contributed 0.7% of the percentage change over the prior year.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense for the first quarter of 2024 was $8.4 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 5.0%, from $8.0 million in the first quarter of 2023 primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in depreciation from leasehold improvements and a $0.2 million increase in finance lease amortization expense.

Other Operating Expense, Net

Other operating expense, net for the first quarter of 2024 was $0.8 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower research and development costs in the current quarter compared to the same period in the prior year.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the first quarter of 2024 was $6.2 million, an increase of $0.5 million, or 8.8%, from $5.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. The change was primarily due to increases in interest rates associated with our First Lien Credit Facilities compared to the first quarter of 2023 which resulted in additional interest expense of $1.5 million. We also incurred an additional $0.3 million of amortization related to deferred financing costs, partially offset by increased interest income from our cross-currency swap of $0.9 million and an increase of $0.5 million of interest income from our $200 million interest rate swap.

Foreign Currency (Gain) Loss

Foreign currency gain for the first quarter of 2024 was $1.4 million, a change of $1.6 million, from foreign currency loss of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2023 due to the volatility in Euro exchange rates compared to USD.

27


Income Tax Benefit

Income tax benefit for the first quarter of 2024 was $1.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 15.8%. Income tax benefit was $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2023, or an effective tax rate of 14.4%. The fluctuation in the effective tax rate between periods was primarily attributable to a tax expense of $0.7 million related to stock-based compensation shortfall. The effective tax rate is less than the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to stock-based compensation adjustments, which is partially offset by the forward-looking statementsU.S. tax credits available in the U.S., and income in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at different rates than the U.S. statutory tax rate.

Net Loss

Net loss for the first quarter of 2024 decreased $4.3 million to $8.1 million from a net loss of $12.4 million in the first quarter of 2023. The change was due to the reasons discussed above.

EBITDA and AEBITDA

EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 was $15.4 million, an increase of $7.9 million, or 105.3%, compared to $7.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. AEBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 totaled $20.2 million and $15.1 million, respectively, an increase of $5.1 million, or 33.8%.

Presentation and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

As noted above, we believe that in order to better understand the performance of the Company, providing non-GAAP financial measures to users of our financial information is helpful. We believe presentation of these non-GAAP measures is useful because they are many of the key measures that allow management to evaluate more effectively our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and against peers without regard to financing methods or capital structure. Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a resultan alternative to similar financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The computations of EBITDA and AEBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, measures of financial performance as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of operating performance.

The following tables and related notes reconcile certain factors detailednon-GAAP measures, including the non-GAAP constant currency measures, to GAAP information presented in our filingsthis Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on July 13, 2017 as a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated for the purposeevaluate liquidity in terms of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Initial Business Combination”). We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash flows from the proceeds of our initial public offeringoperations and other sources and the Private Placement of the private placement warrants. We may also use our shares, debt or a combination of cash, equity and debt to effectuate our initial business combination.

On January 22, 2018, we consummated our initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 30,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. The units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds, before expenses, of $300 million. Prior to the consummation of the initial public offering, the Sponsor purchased 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, and certain other investors (the “Anchor Investors”) purchased 3,750,000 Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $37,500, or approximately $0.01 per share (together, the “Founder Shares”). The founder shares were issued to the anchor investors in connection with their agreement to purchase an aggregate of 15,000,000 ordinary shares (13,025,000 Class A ordinary shares and 1,975,000 Class C ordinary shares) (“Forward Purchase Shares”), plus an aggregate of 5,000,000 redeemable warrants (“Forward Purchase Warrants”) for $10.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $150 million, in a private placement to occur concurrently with the closing of the initial business combination (the “Forward Purchase Agreements”). We also entered into the strategic partnership agreement (the “Strategic Partnership Agreement”), pursuant to which the Sponsor transferred 525,000 founder shares to BSOF Master Fund L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, and BSOF Master Fund II L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, both affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. (together, the “BSOF Entities”). On March 8, 2018, following the expiration of the underwriters’ over-allotment option granted in the initial public offering, the Sponsor surrendered 1,125,000 Class B ordinary shares to the Company for no consideration, which the Company cancelled.

16

Upon execution of the forward purchase agreements, each anchor investor elected to receive a fixed number of Class A ordinary shares or Class C ordinary shares. The Class C ordinary shares have identical terms as the Class A ordinary shares, except the Class C ordinary shares do not grant their holders any voting rights. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that, following the consummation of our initial business combination, the Class C ordinary shares may be converted into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis (i) at the election of the holder with 65 days’ written notice or (ii) upon the transfersufficiency of such Class C ordinary sharecash flows to an unaffiliated third party.

Pursuant to the Strategic Partnership Agreement, the BSOF Entities have agreed to act asfund our strategic partneroperating, investing and may provide debt or equity financing in connection with our initial business combination, but are not required to do so. The founder shares held by the BSOF Entities are subject to certain transfer restrictions, forfeiture and earnout provisions similar to those imposed upon our Sponsor and the anchor investors. If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, the BSOF Entities have agreed to vote any founder shares they may own in favor of such initial business combination. The BSOF Entities may designate one observer to our board of directors until the consummation of our initial business combination. The BSOF Entities have also separately purchased an aggregate of 560,000 Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, in the Initial Private Placement. Such Private Placement Warrants have the same terms and conditions as those purchased by our anchor investors. The BSOF Entities will be entitled to registration rights with respect any ordinary shares and warrants held by them.activities. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents of $55.1 million as of March 31, 2024, together with borrowing capacity under the combinationrevolving portion of capital provided by our anchor investors and a strategic partnership with the BSOF Entitiessenior secured credit facilities, will provide us with a material advantage in effecting an initial business combination.sufficient resources to cover our current requirements.

Simultaneously withOur main liquidity needs relate to capital expenditures and expenses for the closingproduction and maintenance of the initial public offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Initial Private Placement”) of 8,000,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”) each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share or Class C ordinary share, as applicable,PPS systems placed at $11.50 per share, at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $8 million.

Upon the closing of the initial public offering and the Initial Private Placement, $300 million ($10.00 per unit) from the net proceeds thereof was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A, maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee (“Trust Account”), and is invested in a money market fund selected by the Company until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the initial business combination or (ii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete a business combination by January 22, 2020, subject to applicable law.

After the payment of underwriting discounts and commissions (excluding the deferred portion of $10,500,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, which amount will be payable upon consummation of our initial business combination if consummated) and approximately $1,000,000 in expenses relating to the initial public offering, approximately $1,000,000 of the net proceeds of the initial public offering and Initial Private Placement was not deposited into the Trust Account and was retained by us forend-user facilities, working capital, purposes. The net proceeds deposited intoincluding the Trust Account remainpurchase of paper raw materials, and payments of principal and interest on deposit in the Trust Account earning interest.

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

We have not generated any revenues to date, and we will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination. Our entire activity from inception to March 31, 2018 relates to our formation, consummation of the initial public offering, the Strategic Partnership Agreement, the forward purchase agreements, and, since the closing of the initial public offering, the search for a Business Combination candidate. Going forward, we expect to incur increased costs and expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as costs and expenses associated with search for and diligence of, an initial business combination.outstanding debt. We expect our expensescapital expenditures to increase substantially after this period.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2018,as we had net income of $588,617, which consisted of interest income held in the Trust Account offset by operating costscontinue to grow our business, expand our manufacturing footprint, and administrative fees.

Liquidityupgrade our existing systems and Capital Resources

Until the consummation offacilities. We continue to evaluate our initial public offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial sale of the founder sharesinventory requirements and adjust according to our Sponsor,volume forecasts. Our future capital requirements and the proceedsadequacy of loans from our Sponsor in the amount of $148,844. In connection with our initial public offering, we incurred offering costs of $18,227,149 (including underwriting discountsavailable funds will depend on many factors, and commissions of $6,000,000 and deferred underwriting discounts and commissions of $10,500,000). Other incurred offering costs consisted principally of formation and preparation fees related to our initial public offering.

Upon the closing of our initial public offering, we generated $300,000,000 of gross proceeds.

On January 22, 2018, simultaneously with the sale of the units, we completed a private placement with our sponsor for 5,333,333 private placement warrants at a purchase price of $1.50 per warrant, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000.

Approximately $300,000,000 of the net proceeds from our initial public offering and the private placement warrants has been deposited in the Trust Account established for the benefit of our public shareholders. The $300,000,000 of net proceeds held in the Trust Account includes $10,500,000 of deferred underwriting discounts and commissions that will be released to the underwriters of the initial public offering upon completion of our initial business combination. Of the gross proceeds from the initial public offering that were not deposited in the Trust Account, $6,000,000 was used to pay underwriting discounts and commissions in the initial public offering and the balance was reserved to pay accrued offering and formation costs, business, legal and accounting due diligence expenses on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account not previously released to us (less taxes payable and deferred underwriting commissions) and the proceeds from the sale of the forward purchase securities to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay our income taxes, if any. To the extent that our equity or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following our initial public offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our Sponsor, officers and directors or their respective affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required on a non-interest basis. If we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants. The terms of any such loans have not been determined, and no written agreement exists with respect thereto. Prior to the completion of our initial business combination, we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor, officers, directors or their respective affiliates as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.

Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing to complete our initial business combination, either because the transaction requires more cash than is available from the proceeds held in our Trust Account or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of the initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial business combination. If we are unable to completeobtain needed additional funds, we may have to reduce our initial business combination becauseoperating costs or incur additional debt, which could impair our growth prospects and/or otherwise negatively impact our business. Further, volatility in the equity and credit markets from macroeconomic factors could make obtaining new equity or debt financing more difficult or expensive.

We had $55.1 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and $62.0 million as of December 31, 2023. Including finance lease liabilities and excluding deferred financing costs, we dohad $403.0 million in debt, $2.6 million of which was classified as short-term, as of March 31, 2024, compared to $407.4 million in debt, $2.5 million of which was classified as short-term, as of December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024, we did not have sufficient fundsamounts outstanding under our $45.0 million revolving credit facility, and we had no borrowings under such facility through May 2, 2024. The Revolving Facility includes borrowing capacity available for standby letters of credit of up to $5.0 million. Any issuance of letters of credit will reduce the amount available under the Revolving Facility. As of March 31, 2024, we had $3.6 million committed to outstanding letters of credit, leaving net availability under the Revolving Facility at $41.4 million.

The material terms of the Facilities are summarized in Note 7, “Long-Term Debt” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 11, “Long-Term Debt” to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 10-K. The First Lien Term Facility matures in 2026 and the Revolving Facility matures in 2025. Borrowings under the Facilities, at our option, bear interest at either (1) an adjusted eurocurrency rate or the secured-overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), or (2) a base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is 3.75% with respect to eurocurrency borrowings or SOFR borrowings, as applicable, and 2.75% with respect to base rate borrowings, in each case assuming a first lien net leverage ratio of less than 5.00:1.00, subject to a leverage-based step-up to an applicable margin equal to 4.00% for eurocurrency borrowings and SOFR borrowings, as applicable, and 3.00% with respect to base rate borrowings. The interest rate for the First Lien Dollar Term Facility as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was 9.43% and 9.44%, respectively. The interest rate for the First Lien Euro Term Facility as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was 7.86% and 7.86%, respectively. Global interest rates increased meaningfully in 2023 and we expect interest on our Facilities to increase.

The Facilities provide us we will be forcedwith the option to cease operationsincrease commitments under the Facilities in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $95.0 million and liquidate100% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Trust Account. In addition, following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may needdefinitive documentation with respect to obtain additional financingthe Facilities) for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended, plus any voluntary prepayments of the First Lien Term Facility (and, in orderthe case of the Revolving Facility, to meet our obligations.the extent such voluntary prepayments are accompanied by permanent commitment reductions under the Revolving Facility), plus unlimited amounts subject to the relevant net leverage ratio tests and certain other conditions.

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Cash provided by operating activities was $7.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023. The changes in operating cash flows are largely due to the decreased net loss for the current period compared with prior year and changes in working capital adjustments.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $10.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and reflects cash used for production of converter equipment and purchases of machinery and equipment, and an additional investment in Pickle. Cash used in investing activities was $11.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and reflects cash used for production of converter equipment and leasehold improvements for our facilities in Connecticut and The Netherlands.

Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and reflects debt repayments, payments on finance lease liabilities, tax payments for withholdings on stock compensation and payments on our financial statements, whichequipment financing arrangement. Net cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and reflects debt repayments, payments on finance lease liabilities, and tax payments for withholdings on stock compensation, partially offset by proceeds received from an equipment financing arrangement.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

We lease production and administrative facilities as well as automobiles, machinery and equipment. We have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimatesvarious contractual obligations and judgmentscommercial commitments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets andare recorded as liabilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimatesOther items, such as purchase obligations and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instrument and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believeexecutory contracts, are not recognized as liabilities, but are required to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe theredisclosed. There have been no significant changes outside the ordinary course of business to our “Contractual Obligations” table in our critical accounting policies as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K forManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on March 29, 2018.2023 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2018, weWe did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as definedof March 31, 2024.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in Item 303(a)(4)(ii)conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of Regulation S-K.

JOBS Act

The JOBS Act contains provisionsassets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While we do not believe that among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualifythe reported amounts would be materially different, application of these policies involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards,future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on experience and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting policies and estimates, are disclosed in our 2023 10-K.

Impairment of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets, and Long-Lived Assets

We periodically review goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment whenever there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our goodwill reporting units or identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets may not comply with newbe less than their fair values. Additionally, we review our long-lived asset groups whenever there is evidence that events or revised accounting standards onchanges in circumstances indicate the relevant dates on which adoptioncarrying value of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As such, our financial statementsasset groups may not be comparablerecoverable. If events or circumstances exist, including a continuation of current market conditions, that indicate that the carrying value of our goodwill reporting units or identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets may be less than their fair values, or the carrying amount of our long lived-asset groups may no longer be recoverable, we may recognize a non-cash impairment of goodwill, identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets, or long-lived asset groups, which could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations in future periods. For additional information on our accounting principles with respect to companiesgoodwill, identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets, and long-lived assets, please see “Management Discussion & Analysis – Critical Accounting Policies” in our 2023 10-K.

As of March 31, 2024, there were no indicators to suggest that comply with public company effective dates.it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets were below their carrying values. As of March 31, 2024, there were no indicators of impairment present for long-lived assets that required us to test for recoverability.

31


If we fail an impairment test, any non-cash impairment charge may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. We will continue to monitor events and circumstances for indicators of impairment in our reporting units, indefinite-lived intangible assets, and asset groups.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

For recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

There have been no material changesChanges in interest rates affect the amount of interest income we earn on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and the amount of interest expense we pay on borrowings under the floating rate portions of our Facilities. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the Company’s market risk duringapplicable base interest rates under our Facilities would have resulted in a $1.0 million impact on our cash interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018. For additional information refer2024. We use interest rate swap agreements to Part II, Item 7A of our Annualmanage this exposure.

Refer to Note 7, “Long-Term Debt” and Note 8, “Derivative Instruments” to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-K10-Q for additional information.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to our transactions and subsidiaries’ balances that are denominated in currencies other than USD, our reporting currency. See “Effect of Currency Fluctuations” in Item 2 previously for more information about our foreign currency exchange rate exposure. We seek to naturally hedge our foreign exchange transaction exposure by matching the transaction currencies for our cash inflows and outflows and maintaining access to credit in the principal currencies in which we conduct business. Additionally, we hedge some of our exposure to foreign currency translation with a cross-currency swap. Refer to Note 8, “Derivative Instruments” to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net revenue denominated in currencies other than USD amounted to $53.4 million or 62.6% of our net revenue for the fiscal yearperiod. Substantially all of this amount was denominated in Euro. A 10% increase or decrease in the value of the Euro to the USD would have caused our reported net revenue for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2017 filed2024 to increase or decrease by approximately $5.3 million.

Commodity Price Risk

While our business is significantly impacted by price fluctuations related to the purchase, production and sale of paper products, we are typically not directly exposed to market price fluctuations in paper purchase or sale prices as we historically have negotiated prices with suppliers on an annual basis and negotiate prices with distributors reflecting competitive market terms. Our strategy has generally been to obtain competitive prices for our products and services and allow operating results to reflect market price movements dictated by supply and demand. However, due to global inflation and other macroeconomic factors, including the SEC on March 29, 2018.conflict in Ukraine, we may be subject to significantly more commodity price volatility than we have historically experienced.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

DisclosureWe maintain disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed in our reports filedthat we file or submittedsubmit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controlsforms, and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act 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 financial disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15 In designing and 15d-15 underevaluating the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2018. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concludedmanagement recognized that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.

19

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their control objectives.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Aa control system, no matter how well conceiveddesigned and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Companya company have been detected.

20

32


As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that are described in the 2023 10-K.

Notwithstanding such material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations and our cash flows for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Remediation Plans

As previously described in Part II – Item 9A – Controls and Procedures of the 202310-K, we continue to implement a remediation plan to address the material weaknesses mentioned above. The weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

The Company expects that we will have remediated certain material weaknesses as described in the 2023 10-K by the end of the calendar year 2024. However, we may not be able to demonstrate through testing that these controls have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time to achieve remediation. Progress has been made against Management’s plan to remediate these material weaknesses, but for Management to consider a material weakness remediated the related controls are required to function as anticipated for a minimum period. As the Company is executing its remediation plan in 2024, changes to the timing of remediation activities and delays may be experienced that could delay when the material weakness is considered remediated. Controls may be functioning as expected by the end of 2024 but may not function in their final state for a minimum period in 2024. As part of its remediation plan, Management will put mitigating controls in place to minimize risk associated with any unresolved material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In response to the material weaknesses described in the 2023 10-K, the Company reviewed the design of its controls and began remediation activities to alleviate the noted control deficiencies. Other than these items, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.Proceeds

None.

Prior to our initial public offering, we issued 8,625,000 founder shares to our sponsor in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share. Subsequently, our sponsor transferred 525,000 founder shares to the BSOF Entities. In addition, in connection with the forward purchase agreements, we issued to the anchor investors an aggregate of 3,750,000 founder shares for $0.01 per share prior to our initial public offering. Our sponsor, the BSOF Entities and the anchor investors currently own 6,735,000, 525,000 and 3,750,000 founder shares, respectively. Substantially concurrently with the consummation of the initial public offering, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 8,000,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to certain investors at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $8,000,000.

On January 22, 2018, the Company consummated the initial public offering of 30,000,000 units. Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one warrant. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated acted as joint book-running managers for the offering and I-Bankers Securities, Inc. acted as the co-manager for the offering.
