Turtle Beach Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1. Description of Business
Organization
Turtle Beach Corporation (“Turtle Beach” or the “Company”), headquartered in San Diego, California and incorporated in the state of Nevada in 2010, is a premier audio and gaming technology company with expertise and experience in developing, commercializing, and marketing innovative products across a range of large addressable markets under the Turtle Beach® brand. Turtle Beach, a worldwide leader of feature-rich headset solutions for use across multiple platforms, including video game and entertainment consoles, handheld consoles, personal computers (“PC”), tablets and mobile devices, expanded its brand beyond gaming headsets and launched its gaming controller product line, as well as gaming flight simulation and racing simulation accessories, and strengthened its gaming PC keyboards and mice product lines. In March 2024, Turtle Beach acquired Performance Designed Products LLC (“PDP”), another leading gaming accessory brand with a robust slate of products, including gaming controllers, gamepads for all platforms and licensing deals with popular gaming and entertainment properties.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.
All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire fiscal year.
The December 31, 2024 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025 (“Annual Report”).
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report that contains information useful to understanding the Company’s businesses and financial statement presentations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to use estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and assumptions used by management affect: sales return reserve, allowances for cash-based incentive programs, warranty reserve, valuation of inventory, valuation of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, probability of performance shares vesting and forfeiture rates utilized in issuing stock-based compensation awards. The Company evaluates estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors and adjusts those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates, and those differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.
There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Note 1 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report.
Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted
8
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Update (“ASUs"). ASUs not referenced below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and allows for adoption on a prospective basis, with early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which is intended to improve disclosures related to certain income statement expenses of the Company. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient and accounting policy election which will result in reduced complexity for the measurement of credit losses arising from transactions accounted for under ASC 606—Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which include current contract assets and current contract receivable. Specifically, the practical expedient permits entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset, and the accounting policy election permits an entity other than a public business entity to consider collection activity after the balance sheet date when estimating expected credit losses. Entities electing to apply the practical expedient and the accounting policy election, if applicable, should apply the amendments prospectively. This ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), which modernizes and simplifies the accounting costs incurred to develop or acquire internal use software costs. The update eliminates the legacy three-stage waterfall model - preliminary, application development, and post-implementation. Under the new standard, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits funding for the project and completion is probable, aligning better with agile and iterative development practices. The types of costs eligible remain unchanged, and the update does not affect accounting for software developed for sale or licensing. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard and does not expect that it will have a material impact on its disclosures.
Note 3. Business Combinations
Performance Designed Products LLC Acquisition

PDP's net revenue has been integrated in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in the nine months ended September 30, 2025. PDP's net revenue included in the Company’s consolidated results was $
Note 4. Fair Value Measurement
The Company follows a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This 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:

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the revolving line of credit. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has not elected the fair value option for any financial assets and liabilities for which such an election would have been permitted.
The following is a summary of the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Cash equivalents are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value as of the consolidated balance sheet dates, due to the short period of time to maturity; and accounts receivable and accounts payable are stated at their carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short time to the expected receipt or payment. The carrying value of the Credit Facility and Term Loan due 2028 equals fair value as the stated interest rate approximates market rates currently available to the Company. The carrying value of the Credit Facility approximates fair value, due to the variable rate nature of the debt, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to these actions cannot be determined with certainty, in the Company’s opinion, any such liability will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or liquidity.

All defendants moved to dismiss this amended complaint on January 2, 2018, and those motions were denied on March 13, 2018. Defendants petitioned the Nevada Supreme Court to reverse this ruling on April 18, 2018. On June 15, 2018, the Nevada Supreme Court denied defendants’ writ petition without prejudice. The district court subsequently entered a pretrial schedule and set trial for November 2019.

On October 11, 2019, the parties notified the district court that they had reached a settlement that would resolve the pending action if ultimately approved by the Court. On January 13, 2020, the district court preliminarily approved the settlement between the plaintiffs and all defendants.

Nyko had written to PDP on October 31, 2024 asserting that PDP’s Ultra Slim Charge System for PlayStation 4 (“Ultra Slim”) infringed those patents. Nyko has responded to PDP’s complaint and filed counterclaims for patent infringement by the Ultra Slim. On June 12, 2025, Nyko filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of California asserting that PDP and Turtle Beach Corporation infringed the same four patents at issue in the declaratory judgment action filed by PDP. On July 8, 2025, PDP and Turtle Beach moved to dismiss Nyko’s complaint and that motion is pending. On September 30, 2025, PDP moved for judgment on the pleadings on multiple aspects of Nyko’s counterclaims and that motion is pending.
Intellectual Property Dispute: On July 18, 2025, Gametronics LLC filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Voyetra Turtle Beach, Inc., (“VTB”) a wholly owned subsidiary of Turtle Beach Corporation, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, asserting infringement of three patents by the Victrix™ Pro BFG™ Wireless Controller. VTB and Gametronics have agreed to resolve the dispute.
Intellectual Property Dispute: On October 3, 2025, Robert Lyden, an individual, filed a patent infringement lawsuit against PDP, VTB, and Turtle Beach Corporation ("TBC”) in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, asserting infringement of one patent by the Victrix™ Pro BFG™ Wireless Controller and Victrix™ Gambit Wireless Controller. PDP, VTB, and TBC are investigating Mr. Lyden’s allegations.
The Company will continue to vigorously defend itself in the foregoing unresolved matters. However, litigation and investigations are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters. The Company has not recorded any accrual at September 30, 2025 for contingent losses associated with these matters unless otherwise disclosed above based on its belief that losses, while possible, are not probable. Further, any possible range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The unfavorable resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. The Company is engaged in other legal actions, not described above, arising in the ordinary course of its business and, while there can be no assurance, believes that the ultimate outcome of these other legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Product Warranties

Indemnifications
The Company indemnifies certain suppliers and customers for losses arising from matters such as intellectual property disputes and
product safety defects, subject to certain restrictions. The scope of these indemnities varies, but in some instances includes indemnification for
damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. As of September 30, 2025, no material amounts have been accrued for indemnification provisions. The Company does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any material amounts will be required to be paid under its indemnification arrangements.
The Company also indemnifies its current and former directors and certain current and former officers. Certain costs incurred for providing
such indemnification may be recoverable under various insurance policies. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate the maximum
amount that could be payable under these arrangements because these exposures are not capped, the obligations are conditional in nature, and
the facts and circumstances involved in any situation that might arise are variable.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily impacted by the change in U.S. valuation allowance, foreign taxes, and Federal and State current tax. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily impacted by the release of U.S. valuation allowance for PDP acquired net deferred tax liabilities.
The Company recognizes only those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and establishes tax reserves for uncertain tax positions that do not meet this threshold. Interest and penalties associated with income tax matters are included in the provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had uncertain tax positions of $
As required by the authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes, the Company evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets on a jurisdictional basis at each reporting date. Accounting for income taxes requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred taxes will not be realized. The Company considers all positive and negative evidence in determining if, based on the weight of such evidence, a valuation allowance is required. In circumstances where there is sufficient negative evidence indicating that the deferred tax assets are not more likely than not realizable, the Company establishes a valuation allowance. Due to the significant 2022 pre-tax loss, coupled with cumulative book losses projected in early future years, the Company recorded a valuation allowance on its net U.S. deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2022. The Company continues to maintain this valuation allowance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $

The Company is subject to income taxes domestically and in various foreign jurisdictions. The Company files U.S., state and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with various statutes of limitations. The federal tax years open under the statute of limitations are 2021 through 2023, and the state tax years open under the statute of limitations are 2020 through 2023, and the foreign tax years open under the statute of limitations are 2021 through 2023.

Incremental shares from stock options and restricted stock are computed by the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method calculates dilution assuming the exercise of all in-the-money options and vesting of restricted stock, reduced by the repurchase of shares with the proceeds from the assumed exercises and unrecognized compensation expense for outstanding awards and the estimated tax benefit of the assumed exercises.
The weighted average shares listed below were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented or were otherwise excluded under the treasury stock method (in thousands):

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our operations and financial condition of Turtle Beach Corporation ("we," "us," "our," the "Company," "Turtle Beach") should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2025 (the “Annual Report.”)
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements in this report are indicated by words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “strategies” and similar expressions or negatives thereof. Caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because they involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in, or reasonably inferred from, such statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company's management and are made only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by the federal securities laws. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's historical experience and its present expectations or projections.
Overview
Turtle Beach Corporation, headquartered in San Diego, California, and incorporated in the state of Nevada in 2010, is a premier audio and gaming technology company with expertise and experience in developing, commercializing, and marketing innovative products across a range of large addressable markets under the Turtle Beach brand. The Turtle Beach® brand is a market share leader in console gaming headsets with a vast portfolio of headsets designed to be compatible with the latest Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo consoles, as well as for personal computers (“PCs”) and mobile/tablet devices. Turtle Beach Corporation’s PC product portfolio includes headsets, gaming keyboards, mice and other gaming accessories focused on the PC gaming platform and it has recently expanded its brand beyond gaming headsets and launched its gaming controller product line, as well as, gaming flight simulation and racing simulation accessories. In March 2024, Turtle Beach acquired Performance Designed Products LLC (“PDP”), another leading gaming accessory brand with a robust slate of products, including gaming controllers/gamepads for all platforms and licensing deals with popular gaming and entertainment properties. The Company has transitioned all gaming accessories under its best-selling Turtle Beach brand, with products for consoles and PC, including multiplatform gaming headsets, controllers, mice, keyboards, microphones, and flight/racing simulation accessories under one of the industry’s most recognized and trusted brand names.
Business Trends
Turtle Beach operates in the approximately $200 billion global games and accessories market. The global gaming audience now exceeds global cinema and music markets with over 3.6 billion active gamers worldwide. Gaming peripherals, such as headsets, controllers, keyboards, mice, microphones, and flight and racing simulation controls are estimated to be an $11 billion business globally.
The console and PC gaming accessories markets are driven by major game launches and long-running franchises that encourage players to continually buy equipment and accessories. On Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC, flagship games like Call of Duty, Destiny, Star Wars: Battlefront, Grand Theft Auto, Battlefield, and battle royale games like Fortnite, Call of Duty Warzone, Apex Legends, and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, are examples of major franchises that prominently feature online multiplayer modes that encourage player-to-player communication and drive increased demand for gaming headsets, controllers, and more. Many of these established franchises launch new titles annually, leading into the holidays and beyond, and as a result can cause an additional boost to the normally strong holiday sales for gaming accessories.
Additionally, some larger franchise games, for example Call of Duty and Fortnite, follow-up with post-launch downloadable content or new content update packs, to keep interest and fan engagement/momentum going for months following a game’s initial release. Many gamers play online where a gaming headset, which includes a microphone, is required because it allows players to communicate with each other in real-time, provides a more immersive experience, and delivers a competitive advantage.
Further, June 2025 saw the launch of the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 game system in the U.S., which debuted as the fastest-selling video game console launch of all time, with the largest launch month sales for any new gaming platform.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2024
Net revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $80.5 million, a $13.9 million decrease from $94.4 million driven by a significant reduction in market demand for computer gaming accessories.
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, gross margin increased to 37.4% from 36.2% in the comparable prior year period primarily due to the unfavorable impact of fair value step-up adjustment in the prior period relating to the PDP acquisition, partially offset by higher tariffs in 2025.
Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
Net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $201.1 million, a $25.6 million decrease from $226.7 million, due to a significant reduction in market demand for computer gaming accessories.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, gross margin increased to 35.6% from 33.1% in the comparable prior year period primarily due to the unfavorable impact of fair value step-up adjustment in the prior period relating to the PDP acquisition, partially offset by higher tariffs in 2025.

Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.3 million at an effective tax rate of 12.9% compared to income tax expense of $0.05 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 at an effective tax rate of 1.3%. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily impacted by the change in U.S. valuation allowance, foreign taxes and Federal and State current tax. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily impacted by the change in U.S. valuation allowance and foreign taxes.
Income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.1 million at an effective tax rate of 5.1% compared to income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 of $5.5 million at an effective tax rate of 58.2%. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily impacted by the change in U.S. valuation allowance, foreign taxes and Federal and State current tax. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily impacted by the reversal of a portion of the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures
Management routinely reviews key performance indicators, including revenue, operating income and margins, and earnings per share, among others. In addition, we believe certain other measures provide useful information to management and investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) they are measures used by our Board of Directors and management team to evaluate our operating performance; (ii) they are measures used by our management team to make day-to-day operating decisions; (iii) the adjustments made are often viewed as either non-recurring or not reflective of ongoing financial performance and/or have no cash impact on operations; and (iv) the measures are used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common operating performance measure to compare results across companies in our industry by adjusting for potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting relative interest expense), and the age and book value of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation and amortization expense). These other metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and given the limitations of these metrics as analytical tools, should not be considered a substitute for gross profit, gross margins, net income (loss) or other consolidated income statement data as determined in accordance with GAAP.
We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation (non-cash) and certain non-recurring special items that we believe are not representative of core operations, is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our operating profitability adjusted for certain non-cash items or non-routine items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items that are not core to our operations. Further, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and, given the limitations of these metrics as analytical tools, should not be considered a substitute for gross profit, gross margin, net income (loss) or other consolidated income statement data as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of working capital are cash flow from operations and availability of capital under our Credit Agreement. We have funded operations and acquisitions in recent periods with operating cash flows and proceeds from debt and equity financings.

Cash Flows from Operating activities
Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $22.1 million, an increase of $30.7 million as compared to $8.6 million used for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to higher gross receipts, insurance proceeds from claims related to a loss of inventory, lower acquisition-related costs and reduced spending levels.
Cash Flows from Investing activities
Cash provided by investing activities was $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which was primarily related to purchase price working capital adjustments of $2.5 million, compared to $80.7 million used for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily related to the acquisition of the PDP business.
Cash Flows from Financing activities
Net cash used for financing activities was $24.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $82.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consisted primarily of $15.9 million revolving credit facility net repayments, $17.0 million of share repurchases, $2.3 million of debt financing costs and $8.9 million of term loan net proceeds.
Management assessment of liquidity
Management believes that our current cash and cash equivalents, the amounts available under our Revolving Credit Facility and cash flows derived from operations will be sufficient to meet anticipated short-term and long-term funding for working capital and capital expenditures including amounts to develop new products, fund future stock repurchases and to pursue strategic opportunities. Significant assumptions underlie this belief, including, among other things, that there will be no material adverse developments in our business, liquidity or capital requirements, or strategic opportunities that require additional capital.
In addition, the Company monitors the capital markets on an ongoing basis and may consider raising capital if favorable market conditions develop.
Foreign cash balances at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $4.6 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
Revolving Credit Facility
On March 5, 2018, Turtle Beach and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated loan, guaranty and security agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), as administrative agent, collateral agent and security trustee for the lenders. The Revolving Credit Facility provided for a line of credit of up to $50 million inclusive of a sub-facility limit of $10 million for TB Europe, and was secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. The was intended for working capital, letters of credit and other corporate purposes.
27
On March 13, 2024, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment, dated as of March 13, 2024 (the “Fourth Amendment”), to the Revolving Credit Facility. The Fourth Amendment extended the maturity date to March 13, 2027, incorporated PDP acquisition assets into the U.S. Borrowing Base ( up to $15,000,000 or 30% of the aggregate Revolver Commitments), and updated interest terms. Loans bore interest at SOFR, U.S. Base Rate, SONIA or EUIBOR, plus applicable margins, which was between 0.50% to 2.50% for base rate loans and UK base rate loans, and 1.75% to 3.50% for U.S. BSBY rate loans, U.S. BSBY daily floating rate loans and UK alternative currency loans. In addition, Turtle Beach was required to pay a commitment fee on the unused revolving loan commitment at a rate ranging from 0.375% to 0.50% and letter of credit fees and agent fees.
The Revolving Credit Facility included customary affirmative and negative covenants and required a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00 when availability thresholds were not met. These covenants restricted the Company’s ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends, repurchase stock, make certain investments, enter into mergers, and dispose of assets.
On August 1, 2025, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), discussed below, and made a payment of $16.0 million from the Bank of America term loan facility, including $15.9 million and $0.1 million of principal and accrued interest, respectively. The Company treated the Credit Agreement as a partial extinguishment to the Revolving Credit Facility and recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million to write-off the unamortized deferred financing costs in interest expense in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Term Loan
On March 13, 2024, Turtle Beach and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a new financing agreement with Blue Torch Finance, LLC, (“Blue Torch”), pursuant to which Blue Torch provided for an aggregate amount of $50 million (the “Term Loan Facility”), the proceeds of which were used to (i) fund a portion of the PDP acquisition purchase price; (ii) repay certain indebtedness of the acquired business; (iii) to pay fees and expenses related to such transactions and (iv) for general corporate purposes. The Term Loan Facility amortized in a monthly amount equal to 0.21% during the first two years and 0.42% during the third year. As the prepayment period concluded on March 13, 2025, the Term Loan Facility was no longer subject to the prepayment premium applied during the first year. The Term Loan Facility was secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries which were party to the Term Loan Facility.
The Term Loan Facility (a) had a maturity date of March 13, 2027; (b) bore interest at a rate equal to (i) a base rate plus 7.25% per annum for Reference Rate Loans and Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 8.25% per annum for SOFR Loans if the total net leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.25x and (ii) a base rate plus 6.75% per annum for Reference Rate Loans and SOFR plus 7.75% per annum for SOFR Loans if the total net leverage ratio is less than 2.25x; and (c) was subject to certain affirmative, negative and financial covenants, including a minimum liquidity covenant and a quarterly total net leverage ratio covenant.
On August 1, 2025, the Term Loan Facility was repaid in full from the proceeds of the Bank of America credit agreement, discussed below, for the amount of $43.2 million. The Company treated the repayment as a debt extinguishment and recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.7 million to write-off the unamortized deferred financing costs in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Credit Agreement
On August 1, 2025, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the "Borrowers") entered into the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, as the administrative agent, the swingline lender and the line of credit issuer. The Credit Agreement, matures on August 1, 2028 and includes a $60 million term loan facility and a $90 million revolving credit facility with designated sub-facility limits of (i) $15 million for the U.K. Borrower, (ii) $10 million for a swingline facility and (iii) $5 million for letters of credit. Actual credit availability under the revolving facility is subject to a borrowing base limitation that is calculated based on a percentage of eligible trade accounts receivable and inventories, the balances of which fluctuate, and is subject to discretionary reserves and revaluation adjustments. The Borrowers may utilize the facilities for borrowings as well as for the issuance of letters of credit, repaying existing indebtedness outstanding as of the effective date of the Credit Agreement and ongoing working capital and general corporate purposes as defined by the Credit Agreement. The facilities under the Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s previous debt arrangements.
Borrowings will bear interest at a rate that varies depending on the type of loan and the Borrower. The interest rate will be calculated using a floating rate plus a margin. Depending on the type of loan, the floating rate will either be the prime rate announced by Bank of America, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, EURIBOR or SONIA. The margin will range from 2.00% to 2.75% for base rate loans and SONIA based loans and from 3.00% to 3.75% for Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR and EURIBOR loans. The Credit Agreement also provides for an unused line fee, letter of credit fees, and agent fees. The Borrowers will be able to voluntarily prepay the principal of any advance, without penalty or premium, at any time in whole or in part, subject to certain breakage costs. As of September 30, 2025, interest rates for the term loan and revolving credit facilities were 7.66% and 7.53%, respectively.
28
The Credit Agreement requires the Company and its subsidiaries to (i) maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, defined as the ratio, determined on a consolidated basis for the Company and its subsidiaries for the applicable measurement period, of (a) EBITDA minus unfinanced capital expenditures and cash taxes paid for such period to (b) consolidated interest charges for such period plus principal payments or redemptions of outstanding debt plus certain restricted payments and (ii) maintain a consolidated leverage ratio, defined as the ratio, determined on a consolidated basis for the Company and its subsidiaries for the applicable measurement period, of (a) certain funded indebtedness minus unrestricted cash up to a maximum of $12 million to (b) EBITDA.
The Credit Agreement also contains affirmative and negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, limit our ability to take certain actions, including our ability to incur debt, pay dividends and repurchase stock, make certain investments and other payments, enter into certain mergers and consolidations, engage in sale leaseback transactions and transactions with affiliates, and encumber and dispose of assets. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including defaults triggered by the failure to make payments when due, breaches of covenants and representations, material impairment in the perfection of the lenders’ security interest in the collateral, and events related to bankruptcy and insolvency of the Company and its subsidiaries. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the lenders may terminate and/or suspend their obligations to make loans and issue letters of credit and/or accelerate amounts due under the Credit Agreement and exercise other rights and remedies. To secure their obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Company and each of the other loan parties granted an all-assets lien with a first priority security interest in substantially all of their assets to the administrative agent.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement and excess borrowing availability was approximately $34.5 million.
As part of the Credit Agreement, the Company recorded deferred debt financing costs of $2.3 million.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Different assumptions and judgments would change the estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, which, in turn, could change the results from those reported. Management evaluates its estimates, assumptions and judgments on an ongoing basis. For a discussion of the critical estimates that affect the condensed consolidated financial statements, see “Critical Accounting Estimates” included in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report.
See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein for a complete discussion of recent accounting pronouncements. We are currently evaluating the impact of certain recently issued guidance on our financial condition and results of operations in future periods.
Item 3 - Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. The Company’s market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and inflation.
The Company has used derivative financial instruments, specifically foreign currency forward and option contracts, to manage exposure to foreign currency risks, by hedging a portion of its forecasted expenses denominated in British Pounds expected to occur within a year. The effect of exchange rate changes on foreign currency forward and option contracts is expected to offset the effect of exchange rate changes on the underlying hedged item. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we did not have any derivative financial instruments.
29
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
The Company has exchange rate exposure primarily with respect to the British Pound and Euro. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our monetary assets and liabilities that are subject to this exposure are immaterial, therefore the potential immediate loss to us that would result from a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not be expected to have a material impact on our earnings or cash flows. This sensitivity analysis assumes an unfavorable 10% fluctuation in the exchange rates affecting the foreign currencies in which monetary assets and liabilities are denominated and does not take into account the offsetting effect of such a change on our foreign currency denominated revenues.
Inflation Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk due to inflationary pressures affecting our costs and demand for the products we sell. In recent years, our business has been affected by global supply chain constraints and unfavorable changes in economic or political conditions in the countries and markets where we operate. In 2025, the United States introduced trade policy actions that have increased import tariffs across a wide range of countries. The incremental tariffs have had and may continue to have an adverse impact on the Company's result of operations.
Inflationary pressures can also have a negative impact on demand for the products we sell. Reduced or delayed discretionary spending by consumers in response to inflationary pressures has reduced consumer demand for our products, and may result in reduced sales.
The global and regional economic and political conditions, as well as changes in trade policies, have caused and may continue to cause volatility in demand for the Company's products as well as the cost of tariffs, materials and logistics, and transportation delays, and as a result have impacted and may continue to impact the pricing of the Company's products, product availability and the Company's results of operations.
We continue to experience the on-going impacts of a higher interest rate environment, as compared to prior years, which resulted in higher cost of goods, selling expenses, and general and administrative expenses. Such increases have had and may continue to have a negative impact on the Company’s profit margins if selling prices of products do not increase with the increased costs.

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), are designed to ensure that (1) information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (2) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
At the conclusion of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Principal Executive Officer (or PEO) and our Principal Financial Officer (or PFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our PEO and PFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, were ineffective as of September 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company is in process of remediating the material weaknesses identified and discussed in Part II, Item 9A. Controls Procedures of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies, which may be identified during this process.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
Please refer to Note 8, “Commitments and Contingencies” in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated into this item by reference.
Item 1A - Risk Factors
We depend upon the success and availability of third-party gaming platforms and the release and availability of successful game titles to drive sales of our gaming accessories.
The performance of our gaming accessories business is affected by the continued success of the PC gaming market and third-party gaming platforms, such as Microsoft’s Xbox consoles, Sony’s PlayStation consoles and Nintendo’s Switch consoles. Our business could suffer if any of these parties fail to continue to drive the success of these platforms, develop new or enhanced video game platforms, or produce and timely release sufficient quantities of such consoles. Further, if a platform is withdrawn from the market or fails to sell, we may be forced to liquidate inventories relating to that platform or accept returns resulting in significant losses.
Our business is also affected by the continued success of third-party publishers developing and releasing game titles for current or future generation platforms. The timely release of flagship titles like Grand Theft Auto VI and others helps drive increased demand for our products. If such flagship titles are not released or are delayed, our results of operation may vary from past or anticipated future results of operation.
Changes in U.S. or foreign trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs on imported goods and other trade restrictions, as well as uncertainty over such actions, may adversely impact our business and financial performance.
We obtain components and products from numerous suppliers throughout the world. Changes in laws or policies governing the terms of foreign trade, and in particular increased trade restrictions, tariffs or taxes on imports from countries where we manufacture our products could have an impact on our competitive position, business operations and financial performance.
Recently, the U.S. government announced substantial changes in U.S. trade policy and U.S. trade agreements, including the initiation of tariffs and trade restrictions on certain foreign goods. In response to these tariffs, certain foreign governments subject to such tariffs, including China, have retaliated by imposing tariffs on certain U.S. goods, which could represent near-term challenges to our industry. Increased retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on U.S. exports, further increases in U.S. tariffs, and the uncertainties surrounding domestic and foreign tariffs could require us to increase our prices, which could decrease demand for our products, and in certain cases, the Company may be unable to pass along such increased costs to our customers.
We are actively monitoring and evaluating the development and potential impacts of tariffs on our supply chain and results of operations. We are also taking steps to mitigate the effects of current and potential tariffs on our business. However, we may not be able to fully mitigate the effects of any prolonged tariffs or trade disputes. Further, additional trade restrictions could be adopted with little to no advanced notice, and we may not be able to effectively mitigate the adverse impacts from such measures.
Other than noted above, there have been no material changes in the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On May 7, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to acquire up to $75 million of Company common stock. The amount and timing of specific repurchases are subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, restrictions in the Company’s debt agreements and other factors. The Company intends to fund the share repurchases using cash from operations or short-term borrowings and may suspend or discontinue repurchases at any time. The share repurchase program is scheduled to expire on May 6, 2027.
