Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.\n\nUnregistered Sales of Equity Securities\n\nNone.\n\nIssuer Purchases of Equity Securities\n\nNone.\n\nUse of Proceeds\n\nThere were no offerings of registered securities and therefore no planned use of proceeds from such offerings during the quarterly period covered by the Quarterly Report. As described within “Part II Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities” in our 2025 Form 10-K, on December 11, 2025, Cardinal Group completed the IPO, in which it issued and sold 11,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at the public offering price of $21.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $224.6 million after deducting the underwriting discount but before expenses. On December 11, 2025, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 1,725,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock at the public offering price of $21.00 per share, resulting in total issued shares of 13,225,000. This option exercise closed on December 12, 2025, resulting in additional net proceeds to us of $36.2 million after deducting the underwriting discount. The managing underwriters of the IPO were Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and William Blair & Company, L.L.C.\n\nOur offering expenses (other than the underwriting discount) were approximately $5.3 million. The Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-290850) for the IPO was declared effective by the SEC on December 9, 2025.\n\nThrough the filing date of this Report, we have used the net proceeds from the IPO, including the net proceeds from the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock, to purchase 14,943,750 LLC units for $258.3 million in aggregate from each Continuing Equity Holder. Cardinal used the net proceeds from the issuance of LLC units to Cardinal Group (i) to redeem LLC units from certain Continuing Equity Holders for $157.5 million in aggregate at a price per unit equal to the initial public offering price per share of Class A Common Stock, (ii) to repay approximately $24.3 million of borrowings outstanding under our October 2025 Credit Facility, (iii) to pay IPO costs of $6.0 million, (iv) to pay $48.6 million cash consideration for our acquisition of ALGC, (v) to pay $12.6 million in costs related to the installation of machinery and equipment, and (vi) Cardinal has used the remaining net proceeds from the IPO to pay $9.3 million related to working capital and general corporate purposes.\n\nOther than the use of IPO Proceeds to pay for the installation of machinery equipment, as disclosed above, there has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from the IPO from those described within the 2025 Form 10-K filed on March 23, 2026 and the final prospectus dated December 9, 2025 and filed on December 10, 2025 with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act.\n\nDividends\n\nSee “Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Sources of Capital” for a discussion of working capital restrictions and other limitations upon the payment of dividends.\n\n46"}
