PART I —FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements about our plans, objectives, expectations, assumptions or future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continuing,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” “will,” and similar expressions. Examples of forward-looking statements include, without limitation:
statements regarding our strategies, results of operations or liquidity;
statements concerning projections, predictions, expectations, estimates or forecasts as to our business, financial and operational results and future economic performance;
statements of management’s goals and objectives; and
assumptions underlying statements regarding us or our business.
Forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performances, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in 000’sor suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, factors discussed under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; general economic or market conditions, including the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, global economic slowdown, increased inflation, rising interest rates and recent and potential bank failures; our ability to successfully grow our business through acquisitions and our ability to integrate acquisitions, including Rocco & Roxie; our dependency on a limited number of customers; our ability to implement our growth strategy effectively; our ability to manage our manufacturing and supply chain effectively; disruptions in our manufacturing and distribution chains; competition from veterinarians and others in our industry; reputational damage to our brands; economic trends and spending on pets; the effectiveness of our marketing and trade promotion programs; recalls or withdrawals of our products or product liability claims; our ability to introduce new products and improve existing products; our failure to protect our intellectual property; costs associated with governmental regulation; our ability to keep and retain key employees; our ability to sustain profitability; and the risks set forth under the “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and other reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except for per share amounts)

as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Consequently, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 20222023 and December 31, 20212022 and for the three three months ended March 31, 20222023 and 20212022 are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20212022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and related notes thereto included in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 1, 2022.February 28, 2023 (the "Annual Report"). Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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 sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets; the valuation of property, plant, and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the valuation of inventories, and reserves for legal contingencies.12

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 Principal Business Activity and Significant Accounting Policies in the Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to these policies that have had a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes during the three months ended March 31, 2022.2023.

Rocco & Roxie

The Company completed the acquisition of all of the membership units of Rocco & Roxie Supply Co, LLC ("R&R") on January 13, 2023, (the "R&R Acquisition"), which resulted in R&R becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The R&R Acquisition expands the Company's brand and product portfolio to include stain and odor products and enables the Company to extend its offerings into premium dog supplements and jerky treats. The Company paid $26.5 million for

the membership interests of R&R using cash on hand, resulting in R&R becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PetIQ. The purchase is subject to normal working capital adjustments.
The following table summarizes the preliminary allocations of the consideration paid, which included $26.5 million price plus $1.1 million of preliminary working capital, of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on our current estimates of the fair value at the date of the R&R Acquisition:

Purchase price, net of cash acquired$27,634 
Intangible assets will be amortized over the estimated useful lives of the assets through January 2043. The weighted average amortization period of the amortizable intangible assets is approximately 19.4 years. The identifiable intangible assets are measured at fair value as Level III in accordance with the fair value hierarchy.
Goodwill represents the future economic benefits that do not qualify for separate recognition and primarily includes the assembled workforce and other non-contractual relationships, as well as expected future synergies. Approximately $19.0 million of the $20.3 million of Goodwill will not be tax deductible, and the remaining balance is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill was allocated to the Products segment. Transaction costs of $0.5 million were incurred and are recorded in Selling, General, and Administrative costs on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The estimate of fair value and purchase price allocation were based on information available at the time of closing the R&R Acquisition. These preliminary estimates are subject to retrospective adjustments during the measurement period, not to exceed one year, based upon new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the date of closing the R&R Acquisition.

The following is a lease liability, which representssummary of the presentchanges in the carrying value of our obligationgoodwill for the period from January 1, 2021 to make payments arising over the lease term.

We elected the short-term lease exemption for all leases that qualify. This means leases having an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

The Company’s leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Renewal options generally range from one to ten years and the options to extend are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Some leases have variable payments, however, because they are not based on an index or rate, they are not included in the ROU assets and liabilities. Variable payments for real estate leases primarily relate to common area maintenance, insurance, taxes and utilities. Variable payments for equipment and vehicles primarily relate to usage, repairs, and maintenance. As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for most of the Company’s leases, the Company applies a portfolio approach using an estimated incremental borrowing rate, giving consideration to company specific information and publicly available interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, to determine the initial present value of lease payments over the lease terms.

The components of lease expense consists of the following:

Note 4 –5 — Income Tax

Our effective tax rate (ETR) from continuing operations was 4.4% and 3.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 3.06% for the three months ended March 31, 2021,respectively, including discrete items. Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 20222023 and 20212022 was different than the U.S federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the effects of athe change in valuation allowance, state taxes, and the foreign GILTI income inclusion.

rate differential.

The Company has assessed the realizability of the net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 20222023 and in that analysis has considered the relevant positive and negative evidence available to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The realization of the gross deferred tax assets is dependent on several factors, including the generation of sufficient taxable income to realize its deferred tax assets. The Company believes it is more likely than not that the benefit from recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $106.3 million as of March 31, 2022 and

December 31, 2021. In future periods, if we conclude we have future taxable income sufficient to recognize the deferred tax assets, we may reduce or eliminate the valuation allowance.

Note 5 –6 — Earnings per Share

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income available to PetIQ, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income available to PetIQ, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities.

The increase was driven by increases in distributed products sales of approximately $9.8 million, increased sales from the acquisition of R&R, which occurred in January 2023, partially offset by a decline in other manufactured products
Services Segment
Services revenue increased $3.5 million, or 12.6%, to $230.0$31.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was driven by sales of new manufactured product as well as growth within existing manufactured and distributed products.

Services segment

Services revenues increased $3.6 million, or 14.9%, from $24.3 million2023, compared to $28.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared2022. Same-store sales increased $7.8 million, or 37.7%, to $28.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Same-store sales increased $0.8 million, or 4.1%,2023, compared to $20.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared2022. The increased service revenue was driven by maturation of wellness centers that allowed for an increase in pet counts and an increase in average dollar per pets served during the first quarter of 2023.

Gross profit
Gross profit increased by $4.6 million, or 8.0%, to $19.9$62.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in same-store sales was driven by higher pet traffic, as the Company optimized schedules of community clinics. Non same-store sales increased $2.8 million or 64.3%, to $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Gross margin increased to 21.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase is due to margin improvements in the Products segment, primarily driven by new product launches, as well as growth within existing products at higher margins.

Gross margin increased2023, compared to 20.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared2022. The improvement was driven by our Service segment which improved from 2.6% to 18.8%12.7% as a result of increased efficiencies and maturation of wellness centers which drove higher pet counts as well as higher average dollar per pets served. Partially offsetting this increase, Products segment gross margin decreased approximately 0.5% due primarily to impact of product mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased by $4.9 million, or 10.2%, to $43.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Selling, General and administrative expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased by $7.6 million, or 18.6%,2023, compared to $48.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A decreased from 17.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $40.614.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was driven by legal expense of $2.6 million in 2022 for which no similar expense occurred in 2023 and a $1.4 million decrease in stock compensation due to accelerated vesting that occurred in the prior year and had no comparable event in the current year. Additional items are detailed below.

Products Segment
Products segment SG&A decreased $3.7 million or approximately 9.6% to $35.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased from 16.0% for the three months ended March 31, 20212023, compared to 17.5% for the first quarter of 2022. The Company had higher selling and marketing costs for both the Products and Services segments to support the growth in sales, growth in compensation as a result of the growth of the Company, and increased litigation reserves.

Products segment

Products segment SG&A increased $1.3 million or approximately 13.8% to $10.7$38.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared2022. This decrease was primarily due to $9.4lower legal expense and stock compensation as described above.

Services Segment
Services segment SG&A decreased $1.2 million, or 12.3%, to $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was due2023, compared to higher marketing and selling costs related to the new product launches.

Services segment

Services segment SG&A increased $1.0 million, or 16.7%, to $6.3$9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared2022. This decrease was driven by lower corporate allocations, operational improvements, and lower marketing spend due to $5.3fewer new store openings.

Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net, increased $2.6 million to $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was driven by increased wages and marketing related to new clinic rollouts, as well as increased variable costs on higher sales.

Unallocated Corporate

Unallocated corporate SG&A increased $5.2 million, or 20.0%, to $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, from $26.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily related to the following:

Additional corporate compensation of approximately $3.7 million, driven by corporate growth in headcount and wage rates; and
Increased stock based compensation expense of $1.7 million as a result of additional grants as well as the acceleration of vesting for the Company’s CFO transition; and
Increased marketing and selling expenses of $2.8 million to support the growth of both segments; and
Increased legal contingency accruals totaling approximately $2.5 million; and
Increases above were offset by a reduction in amortization expense due to the $3.8 million in accelerated amortization recorded in the prior period related to the in-process research and development asset, with no comparable event in the current year.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net, increased $1.3 million2023, compared to $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared2022. This increase was driven by the higher rates on the Company's variable rate debt due to $4.9 millionrising interest rates.

Provision for income taxes
Our effective tax rate was 4.4% and 3.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was driven by additional debt outstanding, as2023 and 2022, respectively, with a tax expense of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The tax rate is different than the Company refinanced a majorityU.S federal statutory income tax rate of its debt in the second quarter of 2021, but expanded its facilities at that time.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA

Products segment

Products segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $9.1 million, or 23.5% to $47.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $38.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Products segment Adjusted EBITDA fluctuates based on the quantity and mix of products sold, specifically whether the products are produced by PetIQ, or are distributed for other manufacturers. The significant growth in Products segment Adjusted EBITDA relates21% primarily to increased sales, driven by new manufactured product launches, which typically generate higher EBITDA than sales of distributed products.

Services segment

21

Table of Contents

Services segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.0 million, to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Services segment Adjusted EBITDA can fluctuate considerably based on the volume of pets seen in clinics, due to the relatively fixed cost natureeffects of a clinic. Services segment Adjusted EBITDA benefited from the scheduling optimizationchange in valuation allowance, state taxes, and the Company undertook during the fourth quarter of 2021, which resulted in higher pet traffic at community clinics.

Unallocated Corporate

Unallocated corporate expenses consist of expenses incurred by centrally-managed departments, including accounting, legal, human resources, information technology and headquarters expenses, as well as executive and incentive compensation expenses, and other miscellaneous costs. Unallocated corporate costs have primarily grown to support the Company’s growth. Adjustments to unallocated corporate include expenses related acquisition expenses and integration costs. Adjustments also include non-cash expenses, such as depreciation, amortization, and stock based compensation.

Consolidated Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA represents net income before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus adjustments for transactions that management does not believe are representative of our core ongoing business. Adjusted EBITDA is utilized by management: (i) as a factor in evaluating management’s performance when determining incentive compensation and (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.
The Company presents EBITDA because it is a necessary component for computing Adjusted EBITDA.

We believe that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends. In addition, you should be aware when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. Our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these or other unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies do not calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.

23

Table of Contents

Our management does not, and you should not, consider EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP.Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The principal limitation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. Some of these limitations are:

EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
EBITDA does not reflect the interest expenses, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing core operations; and
Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.supplementary. You should review the reconciliations of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources


Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations, borrowings, and equity capital.financing. As of March 31, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, our cash and cash equivalents were $51.1$25.4 million and $79.4$101.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2022,2023, we had the following amounts outstanding; $298.5an unused revolving credit facility with availability of $125.0 million, $294.8 million under aour term loan, $143.8 million of outstanding Notes, $25 million drawn on our ABL,convertible notes, and $22.6$18.7 million in other debt. Our debt

agreements bear interest at rates between 1.5%4.0% and 4.75%8.96%.

See “Note 3 – Debt” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for a description of each of our debt arrangements.

Our primary cash needs are for working capital. Our maintenance capital expenditures have typically been less than 1.0% of net sales, but we may make additional capital expenditures as necessary to support our growth, such as the investment in additional veterinary clinics. Our primary working capital requirements are to carryfund inventory and accounts receivable levels necessary to support our increasing net sales. Fluctuations in working capital are primarily driven by the timing of new product launches and seasonal retailer demand. As of March 31, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, we had working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $234.6$211.0 million and $200.6$220.6 million, respectively.

The Company has not historically made significant non-contractual debt pay downs, but may choose to do so in the future as part of its capital allocation strategy.


We believe that our operating cash flow, cash on hand, and debt proceeds from our borrowings under our creditdebt facilities will be adequate to meet our operating, investing, and financing needs for at least the foreseeable future. next 12 months. We believe we will meet our longer-term expected future cash requirements primarily from a combination of cash flow from operating activities, borrowings under our debt facilities and available cash and cash equivalents.To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that they will be obtained through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity financings, or a combination of these potential sources of funds, although we can provide no assurance that these sources of funding will be available on reasonable terms.

terms or at all. As in the past, we will continue to explore opportunities to optimize our capital structure.


Cash Flows

Cash used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $45.4$43.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, compared to $57.4$45.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The change in operating cash flows primarily reflects lower cash

usage for working capital. Working capital changes are driven primarily by higher inventory offset by higher accounts payable. Net changes in assets and liabilities accounted for $61.8 million in cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $74.4 million2022. The change in operating cash flows primarily reflects higher earning partially offset by increased cash usage for working capital of $2.2 million. Working capital changes are driven primarily by growth in accounts receivable and inventory on higher sales, while accounts payable growth provided working capital benefit driven by increase in inventory and timing of inventory purchases.


Cash used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in operatinginvesting activities was $29.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Cash used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was2023, compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $8.32022. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of $27.6 million of the cash utilized in the acquisition of R&R.

Cash (used in) provided by Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in2023, compared to net cash used in investing activities is a result of slower pace of investment in new wellness centers as well as construction of a new corporate headquarters being completed in the prior period with no comparable construction occurring in the current period.

Cash provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities wasof $22.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $43.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.2022. The change in cash (used in) provided by financing activities is primarily driven by lessreduced borrowing on the Company's ABL on improved Company cash used in operations and the new larger Term Loan B entered into in Q2 2021 allowing for less usage of the ABL.

flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions in the normal course of our business. Such risk is principally associated with interest rates. We currently do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates because the indebtedness incurred under our A&R Credit AgreementABL and A&Rour Term Loan Credit AgreementB are variable rate debt. Interest rate changes generally do not affect the recorded value of our credit agreements but do affect the amount of our interest payments and, therefore, our future earnings and cash flows. As of March 31, 2022,2023, we had variable rate debt of approximately $323.5$294.8 million under our Revolver and Term Loan. An increase of 1% would have increased our interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 20222023 by approximately $0.8$0.7 million.

25

Inflation
Inflation is a factor in our business and we continue to seek ways to mitigate its effect. Inflation has affected our performance in terms of higher costs for employees compensation and benefits, products that we distribute, and components of products we manufacture. We believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our historical results of operations and financial condition have not been material as we have been able to effectively implement price adjustments to pass-through the additional costs. However, in the future, we may not be able to increase prices to our customers sufficiently to offset these increased costs.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the

25

Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022,2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements about our plans, objectives, expectations, assumptions or future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could” and similar expressions. Examples of forward-looking statements include, without limitation:

statements regarding our strategies, results of operations or liquidity;
statements concerning projections, predictions, expectations, estimates or forecasts as to our business, financial and operational results and future economic performance;
statements of management’s goals and objectives; and
assumptions underlying statements regarding us or our business.

Forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performances, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, factors discussed under the headings “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”; the impact of COVID-19 on our business and the global economy; our ability to successfully grow our business through acquisitions; our dependency on a limited number of customers; our ability to implement our growth strategy effectively; disruptions in our manufacturing and distribution chains; competition from veterinarians and others in our industry; reputational damage to our brands; economic trends and spending on pets; the effectiveness of our marketing and trade promotion programs; recalls or withdrawals of our products or product liability claims; our ability to manage our manufacturing and supply chain effectively; disruptions in our manufacturing and distribution chains; our ability to introduce new products and improve existing products; our failure to protect our intellectual property; costs associated with governmental regulation; our ability to keep and retain key employees; our ability to sustain profitability; and the risks set forth under the “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and other reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Consequently, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
