INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Board of Directors HRBeauty LLC Opinion We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of HRBeauty LLC (a Delaware limited liability company) (the ''Company''), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in members' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of HRBeauty LLC as of December 31, 2024, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 HRBeauty LLC 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. Correction of Error As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, certain errors resulting in an understatement of amounts related to equity-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2023, were discovered by management of the Company during the current year. The correction had no impact on total members’ equity as of January 1, 2024. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these 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 HRBeauty LLC's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. 1
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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, 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 HRBeauty LLC's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. 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 HRBeauty LLC'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.

HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS HRBeauty LLC ("HRB") was formed in the State of Delaware in March 2021. HRB designs, markets, and sells a line of curated skincare essentials under the Rhode Skin brand through its website by marketing directly to consumers in the United States and internationally. HRB is headquartered in Beverly Hills, California. HRBeauty Team LLC ("HRBT"), controlled by HRB, was formed in the State of Delaware in November 2021 solely to administer the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan of HRB (see Note 10). HRBT functions as a non-operating entity, focusing exclusively on managing unit awards under this plan. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of accounting and financial statement presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HRBeauty LLC and its majority owned and controlled subsidiary, HRBeauty Team LLC, (collectively, the "Company"). All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in quality institutions. The Company offers a diversity of products over a broad geographic base and is not dependent on any single customer or geographic area. Three vendors accounted for approximately 72% of accounts payable as of December 31, 2024. 7
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Cash and cash equivalents The Company routinely holds deposits in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") limits at financial institutions. At times, cash balances may exceed FDIC limits. The Company believes its credit risk is not significant. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held $45,154,824 in money market funds, which are classified as cash equivalents and included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Prepaid expenses Prepaid expenses primarily consist of prepaid marketing, prepaid insurance and prepaid inventory. Prepaid marketing costs include advance payments for media buys, influencer campaigns, and other promotional activities, which are expensed either when the advertisement is first run or over the period of expected benefit if the costs are associated with a defined campaign term. Prepaid insurance expenses are amortized over the coverage period of the respective policies. Prepaid inventory is reclassified to inventory as goods are received. Other prepaid expenses may include advance payments to vendors for goods and services, which are expensed when the associated goods are delivered or services are performed. Inventory Inventory consists of raw materials, finished goods, and packaging supplies. It is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Property and equipment, net Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Computer equipment 3 years Machinery and equipment 7 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or lease term Normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred, whereas significant charges that materially increase values or extend useful lives are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the accompanying consolidated statement of income. 8
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Intangible assets, net Intangible assets, including trademarks, internal-use software, and domain names, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment losses. Trademarks, which are assessed to have an indefinite life, are not subject to amortization but are evaluated annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. The Company capitalizes direct and incremental internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage of internal-use software. Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Capitalized internal-use software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over a useful life of three years, beginning when the software is ready for its intended use. Domain names are amortized over their estimated useful life of 15 years using the straight-line method. Impairment of long-lived assets The Company reviews long-lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is not recoverable, then the carrying amount is reduced to fair value. In addition to the recoverability assessment, the Company routinely reviews the remaining estimated lives of its long-lived assets. Any reduction in the useful life assumption will result in increased depreciation and amortization expense in the period when such determination is made, as well as in subsequent periods. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company determined that no impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets was required, and accordingly, no impairment losses have been recorded. Revenue recognition Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps: a) Identify the contract(s) with a customer b) Identify the performance obligations in the contract c) Determine the transaction price d) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation 9
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Revenue recognition (continued) A contract contains a promise (or promises) to transfer goods to a customer. A performance obligation is a promise (or a group of promises) that is distinct. The transaction price is the amount of consideration a company expects to be entitled from a customer in exchange for providing the goods. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies each performance obligation by transferring control of the promised goods to the customer. Goods are transferred at a point in time. The Company's revenue is from direct-to-consumer sales. Revenue from direct-to-consumer sales is recognized upon shipment, reflecting the transfer of control, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. The Company recognizes revenue from sales when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the goods to customers at the time products are shipped. Shipping and handling expenses are treated as costs to fulfill the contract, and as a result, any fees received from customers are included in the transaction price allocated to the performance obligation of providing goods with a corresponding amount accrued within cost of goods sold for amounts paid to applicable service providers. The Company typically provides refunds for merchandise returns within 30 days from receipt. The Company recognizes a provision for sales returns based on historical return data and current market conditions. This provision is accounted for as a reduction to revenue at the point of sale to reflect the net revenues expected to be realized. The Company requires payment in advance for all sales. Payments received before the goods are shipped are recorded as deferred revenue. This deferred revenue is recognized as revenue upon the shipment of goods, aligning with the point at which control transfers to the customer and the Company's performance obligations are satisfied. The following table sets forth a summary of changes in deferred revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024: Balance, beginning of year $ 404,139 Consideration received in advance 169,067,229 Revenue recognized (168,962,653) Balance, end of year $ 508,715 10
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Income taxes The Company is a limited liability company that has elected to be taxed as a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code. Under those provisions, the Company does not pay federal taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the members report their respective share of the Company's taxable income. The Company is subject to various state income or gross-receipts based taxes in states which the Company has established nexus. U.S. GAAP requires management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Company and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Company has taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. There were no uncertain tax positions for the year ended December 31, 2024. Sales taxes The Company files sales tax returns in all required jurisdictions in the United States of America. The Company is required to collect sales taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit the amounts collected to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. These taxes and fees are legal assessments on the customer, and the Company has a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. Because the Company does not retain these taxes and fees, the Company does not include such amounts in revenue. The Company records a liability when the amounts are collected and relieves the liability when payments are made to the applicable governmental agencies. Cost of goods sold Cost of goods sold includes the costs incurred to acquire materials, assemble, and sell the Company's finished products. Such costs include product costs held at the lower of cost and net realizable value and inclusive of inventory reserves, freight and import costs, outbound shipping and handling expenses, and warehouse labor costs. Shipping and handling costs Shipping and handling costs, included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statement of income amounted to $17,038,957 for the year ended December 31, 2024. 11
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Advertising expenses The Company expenses the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expenses, including broadcast and digital media, are included in marketing expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of income, and amounted to $8,627,518 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Leases The Company accounts for leases under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). Arrangements meeting the definition of a lease under ASC 842 are classified as either operating or financing leases and recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as both a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability. The lease liability is measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, the risk-free rate as a practical expedient. The ROU asset is adjusted for any initial direct costs, prepayments, and incentives received. For operating leases, the Company recognizes expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, comprising both the amortization of the ROU asset and interest on the lease liability. Variable lease payments are expensed as incurred. Lease modifications or terminations that do not result in the creation of a new lease are accounted for by remeasuring the lease liability and adjusting the ROU asset accordingly. The Company elected to apply the following practical expedients: Election to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. Election to use the risk-free interest rate for the measurement of lease liabilities for all classes of underlying assets. Election not to record ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities for short-term leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, but greater than one month. Leases of one month or less are not included in short-term lease costs. Election to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment of ROU assets. Equity-based compensation The Company accounts for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"), recognizing compensation expense for all equity-based awards granted to employees and non-employees based on their grant-date fair value. 12
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2024 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Equity-based compensation (continued) The Company estimates the fair value of equity-based awards using the most recent independent 409A valuation, which incorporates key assumptions such as expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and applicable adjustments for marketability and other relevant factors. The determination of fair value involves management's judgment and inherent uncertainties, as these assumptions represent management's best estimates based on available information at the time of valuation. The Company utilizes the Monte Carlo model in conjunction with the key assumptions to determine the expense. Compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. For performance-based awards, expense is recognized when the valuation of the Company exceeds the effective threshold set by the award. Market-based conditions are incorporated into the grant-date fair value and recognized over the service period regardless of actual achievement. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Subsequent events The Company has evaluated events subsequent to December 31, 2024, in order to assess the need for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. Such events were evaluated through October 10, 2025, the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. Based upon this evaluation, it was determined no subsequent events occurred that require recognition or additional disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed in Notes 11 and 12. 3. EFFECTS OF THE CORRECTION OF ERRORS During 2024, the Company identified and corrected an error in the previously issued consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The error related to the failure to recognize equity-based compensation expense for profit interest units granted to service providers, as required by ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. As a result, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 have been restated to correct this error. Total members' equity did not change as a result of the correction as of December 31, 2023. The following table shows the effects of the correction as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023: As Previously Reported Adjustment As Restated Statement of income - For the year ended December 31, 2023 General and administrative expenses $ (11,218,459) $ (2,569,093) $ (13,787,552) Net income 2,811,004 (2,569,093) 241,911 13

HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS HRBeauty LLC ("HRB") was formed in the State of Delaware in March 2021. HRB designs, markets, and sells a line of curated skincare essentials under the Rhode Skin brand through its website by marketing directly to consumers in the United States and internationally. HRB is headquartered in Beverly Hills, California. HRBeauty Team LLC ("HRBT"), controlled by HRB, was formed in the State of Delaware in November 2021 solely to administer the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan of HRB (see Note 9). HRBT functions as a non-operating entity, focusing exclusively on managing unit awards under this plan. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of accounting and financial statement presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HRBeauty LLC and its majority owned and controlled subsidiary, HRBeauty Team LLC, (collectively, the "Company"). All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in quality institutions. The Company offers a diversity of products over a broad geographic base and is not dependent on any single customer or geographic area. One customer accounted for 100% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2025. Four vendors accounted for approximately 54% of accounts payable as of June 30, 2025. 6
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Cash and cash equivalents The Company routinely holds deposits in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") limits at financial institutions. At times, cash balances may exceed FDIC limits. The Company believes its credit risk is not significant. The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be classified as cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2025, the Company held $16,851,164 in money market funds, which are classified as cash equivalents and included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Accounts receivable The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the current expected credit losses. The estimation of the allowance is based on an analysis of historical loss experience, current receivables aging, and management's assessment of current conditions and reasonable and supportable expectations of future economic conditions. The Company assesses collectability by pooling receivables where similar characteristics exist based on how long a receivable balance has been outstanding. The expense associated with the allowance for expected credit losses is recognized under general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has not recorded an allowance for credit losses as accounts receivable are generally considered collectible and any potential losses are not considered material. Prepaid expenses Prepaid expenses primarily consist of prepaid marketing, prepaid insurance, prepaid rent, and prepaid inventory. Prepaid marketing costs include advance payments for media buys, influencer campaigns, and other promotional activities, which are expensed either when the advertisement is first run or over the period of expected benefit if the costs are associated with a defined campaign term. Prepaid insurance expenses are amortized over the coverage period of the respective policies. Prepaid inventory is reclassified to inventory as goods are received. Other prepaid expenses may include advance payments to vendors for goods and services, which are expensed when the associated goods are delivered or services are performed. Inventory Inventory consists of raw materials, finished goods, and packaging supplies. It is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. 7
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Property and equipment, net Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Computer equipment 3 years Machinery and equipment 7 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or lease term Normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred, whereas significant charges that materially increase values or extend useful lives are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the accompanying consolidated statement of income. Intangible assets, net Intangible assets, including trademarks, internal-use software, and domain names, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment losses. Trademarks, which are assessed to have an indefinite life, are not subject to amortization but are evaluated annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. The Company capitalizes direct and incremental internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage of internal-use software. Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Capitalized internal-use software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over a useful life of three years, beginning when the software is ready for its intended use. Domain names are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company revised the estimated useful life of its domain names from 15 years to 1 year based on changes in expected use. The change in estimate was applied prospectively and did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. 8
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Impairment of long-lived assets The Company reviews long-lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is not recoverable, then the carrying amount is reduced to fair value. In addition to the recoverability assessment, the Company routinely reviews the remaining estimated lives of its long-lived assets. Any reduction in the useful life assumption will result in increased depreciation and amortization expense in the period when such determination is made, as well as in subsequent periods. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company determined that no impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets was required, and accordingly, no impairment losses have been recorded. Revenue recognition Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps: a) Identify the contract(s) with a customer b) Identify the performance obligations in the contract c) Determine the transaction price d) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation A contract contains a promise (or promises) to transfer goods to a customer. A performance obligation is a promise (or a group of promises) that is distinct. The transaction price is the amount of consideration a company expects to be entitled from a customer in exchange for providing the goods. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies each performance obligation by transferring control of the promised goods to the customer. Goods are transferred at a point in time. The Company's revenue is from direct-to-consumer sales and wholesale sales to retailers. Revenue is recognized upon shipment, reflecting the transfer of control, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. The Company recognizes revenue from sales when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the goods to customers at the time products are shipped. The Company recognizes a provision for sales returns based on historical return data and current market conditions. This provision is accounted for as a reduction to revenue at the point of sale to reflect the net revenues expected to be realized. 9
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Revenue recognition (continued) Revenue from direct-to-consumer sales is presented net of estimated returns. Shipping and handling activities are accounted for as costs to fulfill the contract. Amounts charged to customers for shipping are included in the transaction price and recorded as revenue, with the related shipping and handling costs recorded in cost of goods sold. The Company typically provides refunds for merchandise returned within 30 days of receipt. The Company requires payment in advance for all direct-to-consumer sales. Revenue from wholesale sales to retailers is presented net of estimated returns. Provisions for variable consideration, including rebates, sales incentives, trade promotions, product returns, and discounts, are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related sales are recognized. Promotional programs, such as slotting fees, product listing allowances, and cooperative advertising, are recognized in the same period as the related sales. Payment terms for wholesale customers are established by individual agreements and generally range from 30 to 60 days from shipment. Payments received before the goods are shipped are recorded as deferred revenue. This deferred revenue is recognized as revenue upon the shipment of goods, aligning with the point at which control transfers to the customer and the Company's performance obligations are satisfied. The following table sets forth a summary of changes in deferred revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025: Balance, beginning of period $ 508,715 Consideration received in advance 101,704,753 Revenue recognized (101,926,336) Balance, end of period $ 287,132 Income taxes The Company is a limited liability company that has elected to be taxed as a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code. Under those provisions, the Company does not pay federal taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the members report their respective share of the Company's taxable income. The Company is subject to various state income or gross-receipts based taxes in states which the Company has established nexus. 10
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Income taxes (continued) U.S. GAAP requires management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Company and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Company has taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. There were no uncertain tax positions for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Sales taxes The Company files sales tax returns in all required jurisdictions in the United States of America. The Company is required to collect sales taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit the amounts collected to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. These taxes and fees are legal assessments on the customer, and the Company has a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. Because the Company does not retain these taxes and fees, the Company does not include such amounts in revenue. The Company records a liability when the amounts are collected and relieves the liability when payments are made to the applicable governmental agencies. Cost of goods sold Cost of goods sold includes the costs incurred to acquire materials, assemble, and sell the Company's finished products. Such costs include product costs held at the lower of cost and net realizable value and inclusive of inventory reserves, freight and import costs, outbound shipping and handling expenses, and warehouse labor costs. Shipping and handling costs Shipping and handling costs, included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statement of income amounted to $10,645,785 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Advertising expenses The Company expenses the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expenses, including broadcast and digital media, are included in marketing expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of income, and amounted to $6,618,623 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. 11
HRBeauty LLC Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2025 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Leases The Company accounts for leases under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). Arrangements meeting the definition of a lease under ASC 842 are classified as either operating or financing leases and recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as both a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability. The lease liability is measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, the risk-free rate as a practical expedient. The ROU asset is adjusted for any initial direct costs, prepayments, and incentives received. For operating leases, the Company recognizes expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, comprising both the amortization of the ROU asset and interest on the lease liability. Variable lease payments are expensed as incurred. Lease modifications or terminations that do not result in the creation of a new lease are accounted for by remeasuring the lease liability and adjusting the ROU asset accordingly. The Company elected to apply the following practical expedients: Election to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. Election to use the risk-free interest rate for the measurement of lease liabilities for all classes of underlying assets. Election not to record ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities for short-term leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, but greater than one month. Leases of one month or less are not included in short-term lease costs. Election to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment of ROU assets. Equity-based compensation The Company accounts for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"), recognizing compensation expense for all equity-based awards granted to employees and non-employees based on their grant-date fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of equity-based awards using the most recent independent 409A valuation, which incorporates key assumptions such as expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and applicable adjustments for marketability and other relevant factors. The determination of fair value involves management's judgment and inherent uncertainties, as these assumptions represent management's best estimates based on available information at the time of valuation.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
Note 1—Basis of presentation
The Acquisition is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under US GAAP, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805 which requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their acquisition date fair value. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines the term “fair value” 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.” 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.
e.l.f. Beauty and rhode’s historical financial statements were prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Based on an analysis of e.l.f. Beauty and rhode’s significant accounting policies, the Company has not identified any material differences in accounting policies that would have an impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not assume any differences in accounting policies.
The pro forma adjustments presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and such estimates are subject to revision as further information is obtained. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments for the Acquisition are preliminary and subject to further adjustment as additional information becomes available and the various analyses and other valuations are performed. Any adjustments may have a significant effect on total assets, total liabilities, total equity, operating expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses.
The assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes to this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information may not be indicative of e.l.f. Beauty’s future performance and does not necessarily reflect what e.l.f. Beauty’s financial position and results of operations would have been had these transactions occurred at the beginning of the period presented.
Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future operating results or financial position of e.l.f. Beauty. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any revenue enhancements, anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, or cost savings that may be achieved related to the Acquisition, nor does it reflect any costs or expenditures that may be required to achieve any possible synergies.
e.l.f. Beauty will finalize the accounting for the acquisition as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but in no event later than one year from August 5, 2025, in accordance with ASC 805.
Note 2—rhode reclassification adjustments
During the preparation of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, management performed a preliminary analysis of rhode’s financial information to identify differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the financial statement presentation of e.l.f. Beauty. Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform rhode’s historical financial statement presentation to e.l.f. Beauty’s financial statement presentation. e.l.f. Beauty is currently in the process of conducting a more detailed review of reclassifications, which could be materially different from the amounts set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented herein.
A) Refer to the table below for a summary of reclassification adjustments made to rhode’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2025, in order to conform the presentation with that of e.l.f. Beauty:

| Long-term operating lease obligations | (1,539) | |||||||
| Total identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed | $ | 943,564 | ||||||
| (1) | The cash consideration was funded utilizing a portion of proceeds borrowed under the Amended Credit Agreement of $650.0 million, offset by deferred financing costs of $9.2 million. See pro forma adjustment in Note 4(a) below for adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet relating to cash and cash equivalents. The total cash consideration transferred is subject to customary closing adjustments. | ||||
| (2) | The fair market value of the $300.3 million common stock issued (equivalent to 2,582,371 shares of common stock) was determined on the basis of the opening market price of the Company’s stock of $116.28 per share on the Closing Date of the Acquisition. | ||||
| (3) | Represents the fair value of the three annual earnout targets. | ||||
| (4) | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet has been adjusted to record rhode’s inventories at a preliminary fair value of approximately $39.7 million. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2025, has been adjusted to recognize the increase in cost of products sold related to the fair value adjustment. The increased costs are not anticipated to affect the condensed combined statement of operations beyond twelve months after the acquisition date. | ||||
| (5) | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet has been adjusted to record rhode’s property and equipment at a preliminary fair value of approximately $1.8 million. Refer to Note 5(b) below for additional information on the incremental depreciation expense recorded in each period. | ||||

A 5% change in the valuation of intangible assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the amortization expense of approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and $1.4 million for the year ended March 30, 2025. Pro forma amortization is preliminary and based on the use of straight-line amortization. The amount of amortization following the Acquisition may differ significantly between periods based upon the final value assigned and amortization methodology used for each identifiable intangible asset.

| Net pro forma transaction accounting adjustments—financing to interest expense | $ | (9,988) | $ | (39,951) | ||||||||||
The new interest expense on transaction financing adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations reflects the interest expense associated with new debt from the commitment parties. Interest was recognized for the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan using the effective interest method
12
with the rate equal to SOFR plus 1.9% per annum. The costs incurred to secure the Revolving Credit Facility of $0.2 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, respectively, are amortized to operating expenses on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the commitment.
A sensitivity analysis on interest expense has been performed to assess the effect of a 12.5 basis point change of hypothetical interest on debt financing. This change would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the interest expense of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ending June 30, 2025, and $0.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2025.
(d) Represents the application of the estimated statutory income tax rate of 24.7% to both the rhode historical results and the Transaction Accounting Adjustments for both the three months ended June 30, 2025, and the twelve months ended March 31, 2025. rhode has historically been treated as a partnership for income tax purposes and was not subject to income taxes as a corporate entity. The statutory tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-merger activities, including the geographical mix of income and changes in tax law. As the tax rates used for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are estimated, the blended statutory tax rate will likely vary from the actual effective tax rate in periods subsequent to the closing date. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed.
(e) Represents the 2,582,371 shares of common stock issued to the rhode sellers identified in the registration statement filed by e.l.f. Beauty on Form S-3 on August 8, 2025 (File No. 333-289448). e.l.f. Beauty registered the offer and sale of the shares of the common stock issued to the rhode sellers to satisfy registration rights it granted to them pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
