- Restructuring Charges Add-back: Up to $2,633,000 for trailing twelve-month periods ending March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2024. This add-back expires for periods ending December 31, 2024, and thereafter.

- Ending June 30, 2024: Up to $3,798,000
- Ending September 30, 2024: Up to $760,000
- Ending December 31, 2024 and thereafter: $0
Financial Results (Item 2.02): The filing references a press release (Exhibit 99.1) containing the financial results for the third quarter ended March 31, 2024. The specific revenue, profit, cash flow, margin, debt, and liquidity figures are not contained within the text of this 8-K filing; they are located in the referenced press release.
Material Changes and Outlook
Material Changes: The primary material change is the amendment to the credit agreement, which provides flexibility in EBITDA calculations by allowing the add-back of restructuring charges and cost savings associated with the November 2023 workforce reduction. This adjustment is temporary and phases out by the end of fiscal year 2024.
Guidance and Management Commentary: Management plans to present financial results and outlook to analysts and investors on or after May 1, 2024 (Exhibit 99.2). The filing includes standard forward-looking statement disclaimers but does not contain specific numerical guidance or detailed management commentary within the body of this report.
Risks and Contingencies: The filing notes that the information is summary in nature and subject to the terms of the full Amendment agreement. No specific new risks or contingencies are detailed in this text beyond the standard regulatory disclosures.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Examine the Full Amendment: Review the full text of the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement (to be filed in the 10-Q) to understand all covenants and conditions beyond the EBITDA add-backs.
- Monitor Cost Savings Realization: Track whether the projected "run rate" cost savings ($6.8M to $0.76M) are actually realized in future quarters to ensure compliance with the credit agreement.
- Check Earnings Presentation: Review Exhibit 99.2 for management's specific outlook and forward-looking statements regarding the impact of the restructuring.
