EXPLANATORY NOTE
On November 4, 2025, CSW Industrials, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CSW" or the "Company"), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Initial Form 8-K") to announce the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Dusk Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Dusk”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Motors & Armatures, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and HVAC South, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, “MARS Parts”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated October 1, 2025, by and between RectorSeal, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of CSW and Dusk Intermediate Holdings II, LLC.
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends and supplements the Initial Form 8-K, solely to provide the financial statements and pro forma financial information relating to the acquisition required by Items 9.01(a) and 9.01(b) of Form 8-K and should be read in conjunction with the Initial Form 8-K. This amendment report does not include other updates or amendments to the Initial Form 8-K. The pro forma financial information included in this amendment has been presented for illustrative purposes only, as required by Form 8-K. It does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that the Company and MARS Parts would have achieved had the companies been combined during the periods presented in the pro forma financial information and is not intended to project the future financial results and results of operations that the combined company may achieve after completion of the acquisition. In addition, the fair value assessments presented in the pro forma financial information are the preliminary assessments as the purchase accounting has not yet been finalized, and are based upon available information and certain assumptions, which the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired.
The audited consolidated financial statements of MARS Parts as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are attached thereto as Exhibit 99.1 and are incorporated by reference in this Item 9.01(a). Pursuant to Rule 3-06 of Regulation S-X, the Company used an audited period between nine to twelve months (i.e., the period from January 1, 2025 through September 30, 2025) to satisfy the requirement to provide one year of historical audited financial statements of MARS Parts.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information.
The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet of the Company as of September 30, 2025, and the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations of the Company for the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, including the related notes thereto, giving effect to the MARS Parts acquisition are filed herewith as Exhibit 99.2 and are incorporated by reference in this Item 9.01(b).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Management
Dusk Acquisition Corporation
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Dusk Acquisition Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine-month period then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of management for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:
•Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
•Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
•Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
1
•Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
•Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Dusk Acquisition Corporation
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands of dollars)
1.Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation
Dusk Acquisition Corporation (a Delaware Corporation) (“Dusk”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Motors & Armatures, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and HVAC South, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, the “Company”) is indirectly controlled by certain private equity investment funds advised by Platinum Equity Advisors, LLC (“Advisors,” and such funds collectively “Platinum”).
The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing, distributing, and selling products, parts, and components for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. The Company is headquartered in Hauppauge, New York and operates manufacturing and distribution facilities throughout the United States and Canada.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year customarily ends on December 31; however, these financial statements have been prepared as of September 30, 2025 and for the nine-month period then ended.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, the accounting for acquisitions, allowances for receivables including credit losses, rebates and sales returns, provisions for obsolescence and slow-moving parts, useful lives of property and equipment, intangible assets, recoverability of long-lived assets including purchased intangibles and goodwill, warranties and accounting for income taxes. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from those estimates, and the differences could be material.
Estimates are often based on complex judgments and assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable, but that can be inherently uncertain and unpredictable. If the estimates and assumptions are not representative of actual outcomes, the results could be impacted. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, the estimates and assumptions may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, or unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which might cause the Company to change those estimates and assumptions. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated amounts, such as changes in competition, litigation, legislation, and regulations. The Company regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions using historical experience and expectations about the future and adjusts those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances indicate the need for change.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
7
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount, and do not bear interest. The allowance for credit losses represents the Company’s best estimate of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company reviews the allowance on a regular basis. The Company estimates expected credit losses based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Changes in the relevant information may significantly affect the estimates of expected credit losses.
When the Company determines that a particular customer poses a credit risk, a specific reserve is established and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statement. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure to its customers.
Inventories
Inventories consisting of raw materials are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out method. Motor and component parts are primarily stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value primarily on a weighted average cost basis, with one subsidiary using a first-in, first-out method. Inventory provisions, which are charged to cost of sales, are established for obsolete and slow-moving inventory. The Company’s estimation process for assessing net realizable value is based upon its known backlog, future demand, and expected market conditions.
The Company receives certain allowances from its vendors which include rebates and discounts. These amounts are negotiated with vendors typically on an annual basis and are, at times, dependent on projected purchase volumes. The amounts are subject to changes in market conditions or marketing strategies of the vendors, and changes in product purchases.
The Company records an estimate of earned allowances based on the latest information available with respect to purchase volumes, terms of vendor agreements and ongoing negotiations with vendors. Volume rebate allowances that are not a reimbursement of specific costs are recorded as a reduction of the cost of inventories.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful service lives of the assets. Generally, the estimated useful lives of assets are:
| Furniture and fixtures | 1 - 10 Years | |||||||
| Machinery and equipment | 1 - 12 Years | |||||||
| Data processing equipment and software | 1 - 5 Years | |||||||
| Leasehold improvements | Lesser of lease term or the life of asset | |||||||
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures which significantly improve or extend the life of an asset are capitalized. Upon retirement or other disposition, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and resulting gains or losses are reflected in earnings.
Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment would be recorded in circumstances where undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset are less than the carrying value of that asset. There was no impairment of property and equipment for the nine-months ended September 30, 2025.
8
Internal-Use Software
The Company capitalizes the costs of obtaining or developing internal-use computer software. Capitalization commences when the preliminary project stage of the application has been completed and it is probable that the project will be completed and used to perform the function intended. Amortization commences when the software is placed into service and is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the underlying software, which is generally five years. The costs that are capitalized include external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually as of December 31 or when a triggering event occurs that indicates that the fair value of the Company may be below its carrying amount. When a triggering event occurs, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the quantitative impairment test is necessary. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is not more likely than not that the goodwill is impaired, further testing is unnecessary. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, the Company must perform the quantitative test to compare the entity’s fair value with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The goodwill impairment loss, if any, represents the excess of the carrying amount of total equity over the fair value of the Company. The goodwill impairment loss cannot exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Management has determined that there were no impairments for the nine months ending September 30, 2025.
Intangible Assets, net
Identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recorded separately from goodwill if they arise from contractual or legal rights or are separate from the acquired entity and can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or as a related contract, asset or liability.
Definite-lived intangibles are amortized, based on the estimated useful life of the intangible assets and the economic pattern of usage. The effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors are not expected to impact the indefinite life assumptions. Intangible assets useful lives are as follows:
| Trademark and tradename | 15 Years | |||||||
| Technology | 12 Years | |||||||
| Software | 5 Years | |||||||
| Customer relationships | 15 Years | |||||||
The Company regularly performs reviews to determine if facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the useful lives of long-lived assets are shorter than originally estimated or the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. When an indication exists that the carrying amount of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability of its assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Such impairment test is based on the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the estimated fair value of those assets. No impairment of the respective carrying value has occurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discount
Direct costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt and debt discounts are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. Debt issuance costs and debt discounts associated with term loans are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method and are reflected as reductions of the loan balances in the consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs and debt discounts associated with revolving credit facilities are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis and are reflected as a component of other noncurrent assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
9
Book Overdrafts
Book overdrafts represent the amount by which outstanding checks issued, but not yet presented to the banks for disbursement, exceed balances on deposit in applicable bank accounts and a legal right of offset with the positive cash balance in other financial institution accounts does not exist. The book overdrafts, which are not directly linked to a credit facility or other bank overdraft arrangements, do not result in an actual bank financing, but rather constitute normal unpaid trade payables at the end of the reporting period. The changes in these book overdrafts are included as a component of cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”). The Company’s portfolio of leases includes assets typically associated with its central office, warehouses and sales office. Certain lease payments are made to companies affiliated through common ownership by a stockholder of the Company. The Company assessed the following accounting policies and practical expedients related to this standard:
•Elected the short-term lease accounting policy allowing lessees not to recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less; and
•Did not make the election to combine lease and nonlease components for any lease categories.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception and performs the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter if modified. The lease term includes any renewal options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company measures its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the remaining lease payments. The Company enters into contracts that contain both lease and nonlease components. Nonlease components include real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, utilities and other operating costs. The majority of the Company’s leases include lease payments that are fixed. The Company recognizes rental expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Nonlease variable rent components are expensed when incurred. Rent expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statement.
Certain property and equipment are held under finance leases and are depreciated over the lease term. Finance lease cost includes depreciation of the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis and interest expense on the lease liabilities using the effective interest method.
Foreign Currency
The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. For the Company’s operations where the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, balance sheet accounts are translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Translation adjustments are recorded directly as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized intercompany foreign exchange gains and losses are included in other expense (income), net in the consolidated income statement.
Comprehensive (Loss) Income
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income establishes rules for reporting and display of comprehensive (loss) income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive (loss) income consists of net (loss) income and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all related amendments (“ASC 606”), for all contracts. ASC 606 requires a five-step process for revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control and defines a contract as “an agreement between two or more parties that creates legally enforceable rights and obligations”.
The transaction price for revenue recognized is the amount of consideration entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods to a customer. The objective of determining the transaction price is to predict the amount of consideration to which the entity will be entitled, including amounts that are variable. The Company’s products are generally sold with a right of return and may include variable consideration in the form of incentives, discounts, credits or rebates. The Company estimates variable consideration based on historical experience to determine the expected amount to which the Company will be entitled in
10
exchange for transferring the promised goods to a customer. The Company recognizes estimated variable consideration as an adjustment to the transaction price when control of the related product or service is transferred. The realization of variable consideration occurs within a short period of time from product delivery; therefore, the time value of money effect is not significant.
The Company’s contracts, generally in the form of purchase orders or written contracts, specify the product that is promised to the customer and the transaction price to be paid. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods promised to a customer and identifies a performance obligation for each promised good that is distinct. The typical contract life is less than 12 months and contains only one performance obligation, to provide conforming goods to the customer at the agreed price. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer. Usual sales terms are F.O.B. shipping point or equivalent, at which time control has passed to the customer. The Company provides for an allowance for sales returns based on historical experience and considers future price adjustments in the form of rebates and advertising funding as variable consideration which are estimated and recorded as contra-revenue.
Shipping and handling activities are performed prior to the customer obtaining control of the products and are accounted for as a fulfillment cost rather than as an additional promised service. The Company accrues for shipping and handling costs at reported period end.
Sales Incentives
In accordance with ASC 606, sales incentives, including volume rebates, are recorded as a reduction of gross revenues. Liabilities for customer incentives, discounts or rebates are included in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets.
Warranties
The Company provides repair or replacement warranties in connection with the sale of its products. These warranties provide assurance that a product will function as expected and in accordance with certain specifications and are not separate performance obligations as defined within ASC 606. Warranty obligations are recorded at the time that revenue is recognized on products sold based on contractual arrangements, historical rates of warranty claims and estimated current costs of repair or replacement. The Company assesses the adequacy of its warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts based on actual expenses and change in future estimates.
Advertising Expenses
All advertising is expensed as incurred. Total advertising expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $670, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statement.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company classifies shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statement. Shipping and handling costs were $4,540, net of $352 billed to customers, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Income Taxes
The Company is taxed as a corporation and as such the taxable income or loss will result in entity-level corporate income taxes as applicable for federal and state purposes.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and established a valuation allowance which it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company's estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax contingency is subject to management's assessment of relevant risks, facts and circumstances existing at that time. This estimate applies broadly to all tax positions taken by the Company, including decisions to not report income in a tax return or to classify a transaction as tax exempt. The prescribed approach is determined through a two-step benefit recognition model. The amount of benefit to recognize is measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not of being ultimately realized upon settlement. The tax position must be derecognized when it is no longer more likely than not of being sustained.
The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with tax positions as part of income tax expense in the consolidated income statement.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable arising from the normal course of business activities.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents can be held in checking accounts or bank term deposits. Cash and deposits held at banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is generally limited by the large number of diverse customers and enforcement of credit policies. Three customers accounted for 46% of accounts receivable, net as of September 30, 2025. No customers accounted for more than 10% of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities.
Level 2 Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or other inputs that are observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
Substantially all the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are measured using Level 1 inputs. The Company considers the recorded value of its financial assets and liabilities, which consists primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at September 30, 2025 based upon the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities.
Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value.

The carrying values of the debt approximate fair values as they bear interests at variable rate.
Wells Revolving Credit Facility
On July 12, 2024, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement (“Wells Credit Agreement”). The Wells Credit Agreement consists of a revolving credit facility (“Wells Revolving Credit Facility”) to provide working capital needs for the business pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $70,000. The Wells Credit Agreement further includes an additional $25,000 in accordion borrowing upon request. Borrowings are based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as defined.
On November 29, 2024, the Company amended the Wells Credit Agreement which increased the borrowing capacity from $70,000 to $90,000 and reduced the accordion limit from $25,000 to $5,000.
The Wells Credit Agreement matures on July 12, 2029. In general, amounts borrowed under the Wells Credit Agreement may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed from time to time before maturity. Amounts repaid or prepaid, in whole or in part, are typically done so without premium or penalty. Principal is subject to mandatory repayment if at any time the aggregate amount borrowed exceeds the borrowing limit, and all outstanding principal is due upon maturity.
The Company maintains access to cash-collections lock box accounts until such time as an event requiring notice and restricting access occurs (“Termination Event”). The occurrence of a Termination Event is determined based on the level of availability under the credit line. Due to the mandatory repayment terms and the lock-box feature, the Wells Credit Agreement has been classified as a short-term liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025.
The Wells Credit Agreement additionally includes capacity for $7,500 of letters of credit, subject to the overall capacity of the Wells Credit Agreement. If the Company wishes to borrow under its letter of credit, it must pay a fronting fee generally equal to 0.125% per annum multiplied by the average amount of letters of credit outstanding during the preceding month. Letters of credit are collateralized with cash under defined circumstances. There were no outstanding letters of credit at September 30, 2025.
The interest rate on letters of credit and amounts borrowed on a revolving basis under the Wells Credit Agreement is based on the applicable Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate plus 150 to 200 basis points dependent upon average availability under the credit line. At the Company’s election, interest is due on the last business day of the calendar month that is one, three, or six months after the preceding interest period. All accrued and unpaid interest is due upon maturity. The weighted average interest rate was 6.87% at September 30, 2025.
In addition, the Wells Credit Agreement requires payment of a commitment fee on unused portions of the credit line at a rate of 0.25 to 0.375% per annum, dependent on the average revolver usage.
Kayne Term Loan
On July 12, 2024, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Kayne Anderson Private Credit, LLC representing a syndicate of lenders (“Kayne Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Kayne Credit Agreement, the Company issued a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $119,300 (“Kayne Term Loan”).
On November 29, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the Kayne Credit Agreement (“Kayne Credit Agreement Amendment”). Pursuant to the Kayne Credit Agreement Amendment, the Company issued an incremental term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $160,000 (“Incremental Kayne Term Loan”).
The aggregate amount of the Incremental Kayne Term loan constituted a part of, and addition to, the Kayne Term Loan. Accordingly, the maturity date and interest rates of the Kayne Term Loan equally apply to the Incremental Kayne Term Loan. The maturity date is July 12, 2029.
The borrowings bear interest based on the applicable SOFR rate plus an Applicable Margin, as defined. Two levels of Applicable Margin are defined in the credit agreement based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Applicable Margin for SOFR loans ranges from 5.75% to 6.00%. At the Company’s election, interest is due on the last business day of the calendar month that is one, three, or six months after the preceding interest period. All accrued and unpaid interest is due upon maturity. The weighted average interest rate was 10.93% at September 30, 2025.
15
The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments of $298 and $400 on the Kayne Term Loan and the Incremental Term Loan, respectively, on the last day of each quarter until maturity when all unpaid principal is due. The Company has the optionality to prepay in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty.
Guarantees and Security
Borrowings under the Wells Credit Agreement, the Kayne Term Loan and the Incremental Kayne Term Loan are guaranteed by the Company and the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. The borrowings and the guarantees thereof are collateralized by all of the equity, and in substantially all the tangible and intangible assets owned by the Company and its subsidiaries, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to certain exceptions.
Covenants
Borrowing under the Wells Credit Agreement, the Kayne Credit Agreement and the Kayne Credit Agreement Amendment contain various covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness; guarantee indebtedness or issue certain dividends; make loans and investments; create liens; transfer or sell assets; consolidate, merge, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and conduct certain business practices exogenous of the Company’s core operations. The Company is also obligated to comply with defined financial covenants, which are generally defined net leverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of September 30, 2025.

| Deferred income tax liabilities | (6,622) | ||||
| Net deferred income tax liabilities | $ | 4,508 | |||
The Company establishes a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets to the extent that there is uncertainty surrounding the realization of such assets. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets when, based on all available evidence, it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. When realization of the deferred tax asset is more likely than not to occur, the benefit related to the deductible temporary differences and carryforwards attributable to operations is recognized as a reduction of income tax expense.
At each balance sheet date, management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of the evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s deferred tax assets are realizable and that no valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is required as of September 30, 2025.
The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income are reduced or increased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and approximately $1.0 million of state NOL carryforwards. The state NOL carryforwards begin to expire in various years starting in 2044.
The Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Sections 382 and 383 limit annual use of NOL and research and development credit carryforwards in the event a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within a three-year period. The Company has not yet completed an ownership change analysis pursuant to IRC Section 382. If a requisite ownership change has occurred or occurs, the amount of remaining tax attribute carryforwards available to offset taxable income and income tax expense in future years may be restricted or eliminated.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company did not have any balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits, and as such, no amount would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in any future periods.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal taxation in addition to various U.S. state and Canadian jurisdictions. The Company has not been notified that it is under audit by the IRS or any state or foreign taxing authorities. The general statue of limitations varies by jurisdiction, but is generally 3-4 years.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new standard requires a company to expand its existing income tax disclosures, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income tax paid. The standard will be effective for the Company's fiscal year 2025 annual financials, and the Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU may have on the financial statement disclosures.

12.Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is involved in various legal and administrative actions arising in the normal course of business. Although the ultimate outcome is not determinable at this time, management, after taking into consideration advice of legal counsel, believes that the resolution of any pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
Loss Contingencies
Loss contingencies are existing conditions, situations or circumstances involving uncertainty as to possible loss that will ultimately be resolved when future events occur or fail to occur. Such contingencies include, but are not limited to litigation, product quality and losses resulting from other events and developments. When a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable, we record a liability in the amount of our best estimate for the ultimate loss. The Company regularly reviews contingencies to determine whether the likelihood of loss has changed and to assess whether a reasonable estimate of the loss or range of loss can be made.
13.Participation Unit Plan
Dusk’s parent company (“Parent”) adopted an Equity Participation Plan (the “Plan”) in which several key management employees of the Parent may be granted performance units in Parent, which mature annually over a five-year period beginning from the date the parent company acquired Dusk. According to the terms of the Plan, all performance units become fully matured as of the date of a Change in Control (“Qualifying Event”). In the event a participant terminates employment without cause prior to the occurrence of a Qualifying Event, a portion of the then matured performance units become eligible for payment following a future Qualifying Event. As payment is conditional upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Event and measurement is not determinable, compensation expense has not been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial data should be read together with other financial data included elsewhere or incorporated into this Form 8-K/A.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared by the Company using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), with the Company considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. Based on the acquisition method of accounting, the consideration paid for MARS Parts is allocated to its assets and liabilities based on their preliminary estimated fair value. The purchase price allocation and valuation are based on preliminary estimates, subject to final adjustments and are provided for informational purposes only. For the purpose of measuring the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management has applied the accounting guidance under GAAP for fair value measurements, using established valuation techniques. This guidance establishes the framework for measuring fair value for any asset acquired or liability assumed under GAAP. Fair value measurements can be highly subjective and it is possible the application of reasonable judgment could develop different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances.
The pro forma adjustments and allocation of purchase price of the MARS Parts Acquisition are preliminary and are based on management’s estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which will be finalized within one year after the acquisition. The final purchase price allocation will be completed after asset and liability valuations are finalized. This final valuation will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets that exist as of the date of the completion of the acquisition and related financing transactions. Any final adjustments may change the allocations of purchase price, which could affect the fair value assigned to the assets and liabilities and could result in a change to the unaudited pro forma combined financial information.

The consolidated pro forma financial information is being provided for illustrative and informational purposes only and does not purport to represent what the Company’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been had the MARS Parts Acquisition occurred on the date assumed nor do they project the Company’s results of operations or financial position for any future period or date. The actual results reported by the combined company in periods following the MARS Parts Acquisition may differ significantly from these unaudited pro forma combined financial statements for a number of reasons. The pro forma adjustments, as described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma combined financial information, are based on currently available information. Management believes such adjustments are factually supportable, directly attributable, and with respect to the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations, are expected to have a continuing impact to the combined results. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not reflect costs to integrate the operations of CSW and MARS Parts, the costs necessary to achieve cost savings, or the impact of operating synergies and revenue enhancements that the combined entity may achieve as a result of the MARS Parts Acquisition.

(m) Income Tax
The income tax impact of the pro forma adjustments primarily utilizes blended U.S. and Worldwide statutory income tax rates in effect of 25.3% and 21.8%, respectively, for the six months ended September 30, 2025, and the year ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate of the Company following the acquisition could be significantly different depending on post-acquisition activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income, and changes in tax law. Because the tax rates used for the unaudited combined pro forma statement of operations are estimated, the blended rate will likely vary from the actual effective tax rate in periods subsequent to the completion of the acquisition. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.
5. Acquisition Financing
On November 4, 2025, the Company and the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Fourth Credit Agreement”), which amends, restates, supersedes and replaces in its entirety that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 2, 2025, to which the Company, the Agent and the applicable lenders were party. The Fourth Credit Agreement, among other things, provides for: (i) the continuation of the existing revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal committed amount of up to $700.0 million (the “RCF”); (ii) the extension of the maturity date of the RCF until five years after the Closing Date; and (iii) the establishment of a new senior secured term loan “A” credit facility (the “TLA”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $600.0 million, available in a single drawing on the Closing Date, and with a maturity date of five years after the Closing Date. Borrowings under each of the RCF and the TLA bear interest, at the Borrower’s option, at the one-month SOFR plus an applicable margin, or at a base rate plus an applicable margin. The TLA amortizes in equal quarterly installments of 1.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the TLA, with the total outstanding balance due in full on maturity. The Company used the proceeds of both the RCF and TLA to fund the purchase price of MARS Parts Acquisition.
The interest rates on both the RCF and TLA are calculated using the one-month SOFR, adjusted for an estimated margin of 1.75%, that is initially estimated to be approximately 6.07% and 7.07% for the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended March 31, 2025, respectively.
