NEW YORK, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GPGI, Inc. (NYSE:GPGI), a diversified multi-industry platform for companies with great positions in good industries, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Dave Cote, GPGI's Executive Chairman, noted: "The first quarter was highlighted by record sales at CompoSecure, reflecting the effectiveness of implementing the Resolute Operating System for both growth and profitability. At Husky, we unfortunately encountered unanticipated market headwinds due to oil and resin price volatility and continued tariff uncertainty. As a result, we are taking necessary cost actions while continuing to make strategic investments for future growth. We will navigate these market headwinds, implement ROS, and become a stronger business as we exit the year."

Tom Knott, GPGI's Chief Investment Officer, added: "While the abrupt macroeconomic headwinds facing Husky overshadowed the record sales at CompoSecure, we remain focused on driving cultural change, ROS implementation, and continued seed planting to make 2026 a foundational year that sets us up to deliver best-in-class top line growth, margin expansion, and free cash flow generation."

Note on Accounting Treatment

As a result of the spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. ("Resolute Holdings") and the execution of the management agreement with Resolute Holdings (the "CompoSecure Management Agreement") on February 28, 2025, GPGI is required to account for the operating results of its wholly owned operating subsidiary, GPGI Holdings, L.L.C. ("GPGI Holdings"), under the equity method in accordance with U.S. GAAP, effective February 28, 2025. Both the CompoSecure and Husky Technologies business units are under GPGI Holdings.

The GAAP results presented above for the first quarter 2026 and the portion of the 2025 comparative period from February 28 to March 30, 2025 reflect the conversion to equity method accounting. For clarity of comparisons and to best reflect the financial results, the Company is also presenting the first quarters of 2026 and 2025 on a consolidated basis consistent with historical presentation under the "Non-GAAP" headings.

Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including but not limited to statements concerning GPGI's possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, plans including with respect to cost actions, events, results of operations, demand, the implementation and anticipated impacts of the Resolute Operating System, and statements relating to macroeconomic factors including oil and resin price volatility, trade policy including tariff uncertainty, customer demand, profitability, strategic investments and otherwise with respect to, and guidance for, second quarter and full year 2026, are forward-looking statements. In some instances, these statements may be preceded by, followed by, or include the words "believes," "estimates," "expects," "projects," "outlook" "forecasts," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "plans," "scheduled," "anticipates" or "intends" or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements which speak only as of the date hereof. You should understand that the following important factors, among others, could affect GPGI's future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in GPGI's forward-looking statements: the ability of GPGI to grow and manage growth profitably, implement the Resolute Operating System successfully, maintain relationships with customers, compete within its industry and retain its key employees; impacts on customers and on us of global geopolitical, economic, business, competitive and/or other factors, including tariffs, conflicts, supply chain constraints, oil and resin prices and financing constraints; risks associated with our plans and strategies including cost actions; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against GPGI or others; future exchange and interest rates; changes in our accounting and/or financial presentation; anticipated levels and timing of demand for the products and services of GPGI's businesses; the successful implementation of GPGI's strategies; and other risks and uncertainties, including those under "Risk Factors" in filings that have been made or will be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. GPGI undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Due to the spin-off of Resolute Holdings and the resulting shift to equity method accounting under GAAP beginning February 28, 2025, GPGI is presenting a broader set of Non-GAAP measures, including an Adjusted Statement of Operations (Unaudited), an Adjusted Balance Sheet (Unaudited) and an Adjusted Statement of Cash Flows (Unaudited) to provide investors with financial information that we believe allows for greater comparability with our historical financial presentation and better represents the underlying performance of the standalone business across reporting periods. This press release also includes certain additional Non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and that may be different from Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. GPGI believes Pro Forma Net Sales, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS (Basic and Diluted), Adjusted Cash & Short-Term Investments, Adjusted Net Debt, and related measures are useful to investors in evaluating GPGI's financial performance. Specifically, we believe Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS (Basic and Diluted), Adjusted Cash & Short-Term Investments and Adjusted Net Debt provide greater comparability with historical results, because they show GPGI's financial results as if GPGI consolidated the financial results of its operating businesses consistently across periods, and exclude certain non-recurring and non-operational items, and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin further adjust for the results of Husky from January 1-11, 2026, prior to the completion of GPGI's combination with Husky, for greater visibility of GPGI's results following the completion of the transaction. Pro Forma Net Sales similarly adjusts for the results of Husky from January 1-11, 2026.GPGI uses these Non-GAAP measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, as well as evaluate its underlying historical performance and/or measure incentive compensation. We believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures depict the true performance of the business by encompassing only relevant and controllable events, adjusting for variable interest entity accounting requirements that render our results incomparable across periods, and show the effect of acquisitions as if they had occurred at the beginning of the relevant period, enabling GPGI to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. These Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing GPGI's financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of GPGI's liquidity. These Non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled Non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Additionally, GPGI's debt agreements contain covenants based on variations of certain of these measures for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. GPGI believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that its management uses in analyzing operating results. Please refer to the tables below for the reconciliation of GAAP measures to these Non-GAAP measures. Due to the forward-looking nature of the financial guidance included above under "Second Quarter 2026 Outlook" and "Full Year 2026 Outlook," the charges excluded from the forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures including Pro Forma Net Sales, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Non-GAAP Year-end Net LTM Leverage including with respect to depreciation, amortization, interest, and taxes that would be required to reconcile the Non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures are inherently uncertain or difficult to predict, so it is not feasible to provide accurate forecasted Non-GAAP reconciliations without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included, and no reconciliation of the forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures is included.
