Special Note Regarding Smaller Reporting Company Status

We are filing this report as a "smaller reporting company" (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). As a result of being a smaller reporting company, we are allowed and have elected to omit certain information from this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; however, we have provided all information for the periods presented that we believe to be appropriate.

Where to find more information about us. We make available, free of charge, on our website (http://www.alphaprotech.com) our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any Current Reports on Form 8-K furnished or filed since our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and any amendments to such reports, as soon as reasonably practicable following the electronic filing of such reports with the SEC. In addition, in accordance with SEC rules, we provide paper copies of our filings free of charge upon request.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the periods reported. We base estimates on past experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The application of these accounting policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide timely and reliable financial information. Our significant accounting policies and estimates are more fully described in Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of the 2025 Form 10-K. Since December 31, 2025, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as described in the 2025 Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW

Alpha Pro Tech is in the business of protecting people, products and environments. We accomplish this by developing, manufacturing and marketing a line of high-value, disposable protective apparel products for the cleanroom, industrial, pharmaceutical, medical and dental markets. We also manufacture a line of building supply construction weatherization products. Our products are sold under the "Alpha Pro Tech" brand name, as well as under private label.

Our products are grouped into two business segments: (i) the Building Supply segment, consisting of construction weatherization products, such as housewrap, housewrap accessories, synthetic roof underlayment and synthetic roof underlayment accessories, as well as other woven material; and (ii) the Disposable Protective Apparel segment, consisting of disposable protective garments (including shoecovers, bouffant caps, coveralls, gowns, frocks and lab coats), face masks and face shields.

Our target markets include construction companies and building supply and roofing distributors; companies in pharmaceutical manufacturing, bio-pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical device manufacturing, lab animal research, and high technology electronics manufacturing (which includes the semi-conductor market); and medical and dental distributors.

Our products are used primarily in cleanrooms, industrial safety manufacturing environments, health care facilities, such as hospitals, laboratories and dental offices, and building and re-roofing sites. Our products are distributed principally in the United States through a network consisting of purchasing groups, national distributors, local distributors, independent sales representatives and our own sales and marketing force.

Recent developments in U.S. trade policy continue to introduce uncertainty regarding the future of global trade relations. Following the inauguration of the second Trump administration, there have been numerous announcements and actions related to tariff increases and other trade restrictions on imports into the United States. Changes in tariffs, quotas, embargoes, or other trade barriers affecting countries from which the Company sources products, or affecting its global network of third-party suppliers, could impact the Company's supply chain and cost structure. In addition, retaliatory measures by affected countries could further disrupt operations or reduce our competitiveness in international markets. The Company continues to monitor evolving trade policies and tariff developments. Future changes in tariffs or other trade restrictions could require the Company to adjust pricing, increase inventory levels, or seek alternative suppliers, any of which could materially affect revenue, gross margins, and results of operations.

On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump that the President lacked authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") to impose certain tariffs. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized a recovery of approximately $300,000 of previously paid IEEPA tariffs under the gain contingency model. The related refunds, including applicable statutory interest, were received from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (the "CBP") during June 2026. The U.S. government has appealed the court's decision, and the litigation remains ongoing. The Company will continue to monitor developments related to the litigation and U.S. trade policy.

Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company received approximately $3.2 million in refunds from the CBP related to previously paid IEEPA tariffs. This is in addition to the approximately $300,000 in refunds received (and recorded) during the second quarter of 2026. Although approximately $3.2 million of refunds were received after quarter-end and prior to the filing of this Form 10-Q, the IEEPA tariff matters related to the $3.2 million remain subject to ongoing litigation, including pending appeals, and the ultimate resolution of these matters has not been finalized. Given the uncertainty related to the litigation, management concluded that the ultimate collectability of the $3.2 million could not be deemed to be probable as of June 30, 2026. Accordingly, no additional amounts related to the $3.2 million have been recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026.

Management reviews and analyzes several key performance measures which are non-GAAP financial measures when shown excluding the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, including gross profit; selling, general and administrative expense; income from operations; income before provision for taxes; provision for taxes; net income; basic earnings per share; and diluted earnings per share. These measures are reviewed and analyzed in order to evaluate our business performance, identify trends affecting our business, allocate capital, and make strategic decisions, including those discussed below. See "Results of Operations" below for further discussion on these key performance measures, which are indicated by an asterisk (*).

The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures, a discussion of why we believe they are useful to management and investors as well as certain of their limitations, and reconciliations to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures are provided below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

For the Three and Six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the Three and Six months ended June 30, 2025

Sales. Consolidated sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased to $18,674,000, from $16,672,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing an increase of $2,002,000, or 12.0%. This increase consisted of increased sales in the Building Supply segment of $608,000 and increased sales in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $1,394,000.

Building Supply segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased by $608,000, or 5.5%, to $11,692,000, compared to $11,084,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

The Building Supply segment sales increase during the three months ended June 30, 2026, was primarily due to a 1.2% increase in sales of housewrap, a 3.4% increase in sales of synthetic roof underlayment, a 6.0% increase in sales of other woven material and a 25.0% decrease in rebates as compared to the same period of 2025.

The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was approximately 40% for synthetic roof underlayment, 50% for housewrap and 10% for other woven material, which was the same for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Our synthetic roof underlayment product line primarily includes REX SynFelt®, REX TECHNOply® and TECHNO SB and our synthetic roof underlayment accessories consist of our new self-adhered TECHNOplus Ice & Water and REX Hi Temp. Our housewrap product line primarily consists of REX Wrap®, REX Wrap Plus® and REX™ Wrap Fortis. Housewrap accessories consist of REXTREME Window and Door Flashing and REX™ Premium Seam Tape.

The housing market continued to show weakness in the second quarter of 2026, as single-family housing starts declined by 4.2% compared to the corresponding period in 2025. This decline in the second quarter of 2026 represents an improvement from the decline of 6.5% in the first quarter of 2026. Single-family housing starts in the U.S. remained constrained by mortgage rates, increased land, labor and construction costs, affordability pressures, macroeconomic uncertainty, and geopolitical volatility, which has led builders to moderate new construction activity.

During the second quarter of 2026, we again outperformed the market, as our core building products (housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment) were up by 2.2% compared to the same period of 2025, driven by an increase in both housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment sales. Our synthetic roof underlayment sales increased by 3.4% in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025, even though the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association ("ARMA") reported a 10.0% decline in industry shipments. The Company plans to expand our roofing market product offerings in order to enhance our competitive position and support long-term growth.

The building industry outlook for the remainder of 2026 reflects a soft but generally stable market, rather than a meaningful rebound. A modest increase in single-family housing starts is expected in 2027, assuming economic and financing conditions improve. Management remains focused on developing and producing industry-leading products and anticipates growth in the Building Supply segment; however, uncertainty related to the factors described above could adversely impact results.

Disposable Protective Apparel segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were $6,982,000, compared to $5,588,000 for the same period in 2025, reflecting an increase of $1,394,000, or 24.9%. The segment experienced strong underlying sales growth during the quarter.

The sales mix of the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was approximately 93% for disposable protective garments, 4% for face masks and 3% for face shields. This sales mix is compared to approximately 90% for disposable protective garments, 6% for face masks and 4% for face shields for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Sales of disposable protective garments, which comprised 93% of the segment sales, increased by $1,458,000 or 29.0% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The sales increase was primarily due to improved sales to our largest international channel partner, as well as national and regional distributors. A considerable portion of the increase was attributable to higher selling prices, primarily driven by the impact of U.S. tariffs. Sales of our face mask and face shield products in the second quarter of 2026, which comprise the remaining 7% of the segment sales, were down by $64,000 compared to the same period in 2025.

Consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $33,259,000, compared with $30,494,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $2,765,000, or 9.1%. The increase was attributable to higher sales in both operating segments, consisting of a $95,000 increase in the Building Supply segment and a $2,670,000 increase in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

Building Supply segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $95,000, or 0.5%, to $19,551,000, compared to $19,456,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The Building Supply segment sales increase during the six months ended June 30, 2026, was primarily due to a 5.9% increase in sales of housewrap and a 15.1% increase in sales of other woven material and a 13.6% decrease in rebates, partially offset by an 11.3% decrease in sales of synthetic roof underlayment, compared to the same period of 2025.

The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 51% for housewrap, 39% for synthetic roof underlayment and 10% for other woven material. This compared to 48% for housewrap, 43% for synthetic roof underlayment and 9% for other woven material for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

As per the US Census Bureau, single-family housing starts declined by 5.3% year to date compared to the same period in 2025. The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association ("ARMA") reported a 10.0% decline in industry shipments compared to the year to date in 2025. Management is encouraged by a 5.9% increase in sales of housewrap and sales of synthetic roof underlayment as compared to the decline in the ARMA figures.

Sales of other woven material were up 15.1% year to date in 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to increased sales to our largest customer for this product line.

Management expects growth in the Building Supply segment, however continued uncertainty in housing starts and the economy in general could negatively affect this segment.

Disposable Protective Apparel segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $2,670,000, or 24.2%, to $13,708,000, compared to $11,038,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The increase in segment sales was primarily driven by strong demand across the Company's disposable protective product lines. Compared with the first six months of 2025, sales of disposable protective garments increased by 26.4%, sales of face masks increased by 5.7%, and sales of face shields increased by 0.9%. These increases contributed to the segment's strong underlying year-over-year growth.

The sales mix of the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was 92% for disposable protective garments, 5% for face masks and 3% for face shields. This sales mix is compared to 90% for disposable protective garments, 6% for face masks and 4% for face shields for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Gross Profit. Including the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, gross profit increased by $847,000, or 13.8%, to $6,978,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $6,131,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The gross profit margin was 37.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 36.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

The net change in gross profit for the second quarter of 2026 due to the IEEPA tariff refund was $294,000, which comprised of lower cost of goods sold.

Excluding the IEEPA tariff refund, gross profit increased by $553,000, or 9.0%, to $6,684,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $6,131,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The gross profit margin was 35.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 36.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Including the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, gross profit increased by $971,000, or 8.4%, to $12,494,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $11,523,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The gross profit margin was 37.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 37.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Excluding the IEEPA tariff refund, gross profit increased by $677,000, or 5.9%, to $12,200,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $11,523,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The gross profit margin was 36.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 37.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The decrease in gross profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025 was driven by IEEPA tariffs ranging from 10% to 50%. IEEPA tariffs were subsequently rescinded on February 24, 2026, following a Supreme Court decision invalidating the use of IEEPA to authorize such tariffs. On the same date, the U.S. Government announced plans to implement a new 15% tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. Although announced at 15%, the tariff as of June 30, 2026 was at 10%. In addition, beginning in the latter part of the first quarter of 2026, the Company has experienced increased costs associated with global geopolitical instability, including related to the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict. These conditions have contributed to higher energy, transportation and supply chain costs, as well as volatility in raw material costs, particularly petroleum-based inputs. Many of our products are made from petroleum-based resin, which has seen significant price increases since the start of the conflict. In response to these increased costs, we are implementing a price increase in the third quarter of 2026. Management expects gross profit margin to be positively affected in the coming quarters.

We will continue to monitor developments in U.S. trade policy and global geopolitical conditions. Changes in tariffs, energy markets, or international conflicts, including developments related to the U.S.-Iran conflict, may impact our supply chain, cost structure and profitability.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $142,000, or 3.1%, to $4,698,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $4,556,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 25.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from 27.3% for the same period of 2025. Excluding the IEEPA tariff refund, selling, general and administrative expenses would have been $15,000 lower. The change in expenses by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was as follows: Building Supply expenses were down by $10,000, or 0.6%; Disposable Protective Apparel expenses were up by $50,000, or 3.8%; and corporate unallocated expenses were up by $103,000, or 9.4%.

The decrease in the Building Supply segment expenses was primarily related to decreased employee compensation and marketing expenses, partially offset by increased sales-related travel expenses and general office expenses. The increase in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment expenses was primarily related to increased insurance expenses. The increase in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to increased employee compensation and general office expenses, partially offset by decreased legal fees.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $134,000, or 1.4%, to $9,384,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $9,250,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 28.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from 30.3% for the same period of 2025.

The change in expenses by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was as follows: Building Supply expenses were down by $178,000, or 4.9%; Disposable Protective Apparel expenses were up by $63,000, or 2.3%; and corporate unallocated expenses were up by $250,000, or 8.7%. The decrease in the Building Supply segment expenses was primarily related to decreased employee compensation and trade show expenses, partially offset by increased sales-related travel expenses and general office expenses. The increase in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment expenses was primarily related to increased insurance expenses. The increase in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to increased employee bonuses, general office expenses partially offset by lower legal fees in the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025.

In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, the Company's current President and Chief Executive Officer is entitled to an annual bonus equal to 5% of the pre-tax profits of the Company, excluding bonus expense, up to a maximum of $1.0 million. A bonus amount of $125,000 was accrued for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $84,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. A bonus amount of $172,000 was accrued for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $125,000 for the same period of 2025.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $28,000, or 11.7%, to $268,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $240,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $35,000, or 7.2%, to $518,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $483,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in depreciation in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

Income from Operations. Including the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, income from operations increased by $677,000, or 50.7%, to $2,012,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,335,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increased income from operations was primarily due to an increase in gross profit of $847,000, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $142,000 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses of $28,000. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was 10.8%, compared to 8.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

The net change in income from operations for the second quarter of 2026 due to the IEEPA tariff refund was $279,000.

Excluding the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, income from operations increased by $398,000, or 29.8%, to $1,733,000* for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,335,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increased income from operations was primarily due to an increase in gross profit of $553,000, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $127,000 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses of $28,000. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was 9.3%, compared to 8.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Including the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, income from operations increased by $802,000, or 44.8%, to $2,592,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,790,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increased income from operations was primarily due to an increase in gross profit of $971,000 partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $134,000 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses of $35,000. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was 7.8%, compared to 5.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Excluding the impact of the IEEPA tariff refund, income from operations increased by $523,000, or 29.2%, to $2,313,000* for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,790,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.The increased income from operations was primarily due to an increase in gross profit of $677,000, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $119,000 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses of $35,000. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was 7.0%, compared to 5.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Other Income. Other income increased by $96,000 to income of $372,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $276,000 for the same period of 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $72,000 and an increase in interest income of $24,000. The increase in interest income was primarily due to interest earned in investments and interest paid by the federal government on our IEEPA tariff refund.

Other income increased by $84,000 to income of $677,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $593,000 for the same period of 2025.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are supplemental measures of our performance that we believe will help investors understand our operating results, and assess our future prospects. When read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results, these non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses and can be used by management as one basis for making financial, operational, and planning decisions. For each financial measure we have excluded the impact of the tariff refunds due to their unusual nature which is not reflective of our ongoing operating results.

Management recognizes that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, including that they may be calculated differently by other companies or may be used under different circumstances or for different purposes. In order to compensate for the discussed limitations, management does not consider these measures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The detailed reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure are provided below, and no single financial measure should be relied on to evaluate our business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents ("cash") of $18,901,000 and working capital of $51,014,000. As of June 30, 2026, the Company's current ratio (current assets/current liabilities) was 17:1, compared to a current ratio of 13:1 as of December 31, 2025. Cash increased by 11.3%, or $1,913,000, to $18,901,000 as of June 30, 2026, compared to $16,988,000 as of December 31, 2025, and working capital increased by $2,552,000, to $51,014,000 from $48,462,000 as of December 31, 2025. The increase in cash from December 31, 2025, was due to cash provided by operating activities of $2,225,000 partially offset by cash used in investing activities of $259,000 and used in financing activities of $53,000.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $2,225,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was due to net income of $2,528,000, as adjusted primarily by the following: stock-based compensation expense of $259,000, depreciation and amortization expense of $518,000, equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $364,000, operating lease asset amortization of $494,000, an increase in accounts receivable of $2,997,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $1,712,000, a decrease in inventory of $4,948,000, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $965,000, and a decrease in lease liabilities of $484,000, all compared to December 31, 2025.

The increase in accounts receivable was primarily related to increased sales in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. The number of days that sales remained outstanding as of June 30, 2026, calculated by using an average of accounts receivable outstanding and annual revenue, was 47 days, compared to 40 days as of December 31, 2025. The increase in days outstanding was primarily due to increased sales.

Inventory decreased by $4,948,000, or 21.0%, to $18,650,000 as of June 30, 2026, from $23,598,000 as of December 31, 2025. The decrease was due to a decrease in inventory for the Building Supply segment of $3,953,000, or 30.8%, to $8,876,000 and a decrease in inventory for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $995,000, or 9.2%, to $9,774,000. We purchased less inventory due to the high tariff rate.

Prepaid expenses increased by $1,712,000, or 45.1%, to $5,508,000 as of June 30, 2026, from $3,796,000 as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to increased prepayments for inventory.

Right-of-use assets as of June 30, 2026, decreased by $271,000 to $7,504,000 from $7,775,000 as of December 31, 2025, as a result of amortization of the right-of-use assets partially offset by new Aurora Canada lease.

Lease liabilities as of June 30, 2026, decreased by $261,000 to $7,621,000 from $7,882,000 as of December 31, 2025. The decrease in the lease liabilities was the result of lease payments made during the period partially offset by lease for our Aurora location extended for three years.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2026 decreased by $965,000, or 31.2%, to $2,128,000, from $3,093,000 as of December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in trade payables and accrued bonuses.

Net cash used in investing activities was $259,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $273,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 consisted of the purchase of property and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $53,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $2,028,000 for the same period of 2025. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, resulted from the payment of $99,000 for the repurchase of common stock, partially offset by $46,000 from proceeds from stock options exercised. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was due to a decrease in the repurchases of common stock from $2,008,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to $99,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026, we had $1,298,000 available for stock purchases under our stock repurchase program. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 21,800 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2026, we had repurchased a total of 21,949,740 shares of common stock at a cost of approximately $58,222,000 through our repurchase program which commenced in 1999. We retire all stock upon repurchase. Future repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities.

We believe that our current cash balance and expected cash flow from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our projected working capital and planned capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
