Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Nature of the Business

SPAR Group, Inc. ("SGRP" or the "Corporation"), and its subsidiaries (and SGRP together with its subsidiaries may be referred to as "SPAR Group", the "Company", "SPAR", "We", or "Our") is a global merchandising and brand marketing services company, providing a broad range of services to retailers, consumer goods manufacturers and distributors around the world.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2024.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the included disclosures are adequate, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2024, consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company consolidates its 100%-owned subsidiaries and all of the 51%-owned joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the amounts disclosed for contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Significant balances subject to such estimates and assumptions include carrying amounts of property and equipment and intangible assets, valuation allowances for receivables, carrying amounts for deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities incurred from operations and customer incentives. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

Reportable segments are components of the Company for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company's CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.

The Company provides similar merchandising, marketing and business services throughout the world and has three reportable regional segments: (i) Americas, which is comprised of United States, Canada, Brazil and Mexico; (ii) Asia-Pacific ("APAC”), which is comprised of Japan, China, and India; and (iii) Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA”), which is comprised of South Africa. Certain corporate expenses have been allocated to segments based on each segment’s revenue as a percentage of total company revenue.

Table of Contents

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280):Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which will require Companies to report additional segment information, including certain significant segment expenses, and permit the disclosure of additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2024 and for interim periods thereafter. The Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07 on January 1, 2024 and the impact was not material.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In August 2023 , the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-05 , Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805):Recognition and Initial Measurement , which will require joint ventures to recognize and initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value upon formation. The guidance will be effective for the Company prospectively for all joint venture formations on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption and retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not believe adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740):Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , which will require Companies to report specific categories of rate-reconciliation, certain details of income taxes paid and of certain information by tax jurisdictions. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025 . The Company is currently evaluating the impact adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Debt

North Mill Capital Credit Facility

The Company, through SPAR Marketing Force, Inc. ("SMF") and SPAR Canada Company ULC ("SCC", and collectively with SMF, the “NM Borrowers”), has a secured revolving credit facility in the United States (the "US Revolving Credit Facility") and Canada (the "Canada Revolving Credit Facility", and collectively with the US Revolving Credit Facility, the "NM Credit Facility") with North Mill Capital, LLC, d/b/a SLR Business Credit ("NM").

In order to obtain, document and govern the NM Credit Facility, SMF, SCC, SGRP and certain of SGRP's direct and indirect subsidiaries in the United States and Canada (including SMF and SCC as borrowers and SGRP as a guarantor, collectively, the "NM Loan Parties") entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with NM dated as of April 10, 2019, which, as amended from time to time (as amended, the "NM Loan Agreement"), governs the NM Credit Facility. Pursuant to the NM Loan Agreement, the NM Borrowers agreed to reimburse NM for legal and documentation fees incurred in connection with the NM Loan Agreement and such amendments.

On February 1, 2023, the NM Loan Parties and NM executed and delivered a Sixth Modification Agreement, effective immediately (the "Sixth Modification Agreement"), pursuant to which the NM Loan Parties and NM agreed to increase the amount of the US Revolving Credit Facility to $ 28.0 million and increase the Canada Revolving Credit Facility to CDN$2.0 million. In addition, the Sixth Modification Agreement increased the cap on unbilled accounts in the borrowing base for SMF to $ 7.0 million from $ 6.5 million.

On March 27, 2024, the NM Loan Parties and NM executed and delivered a Seventh Modification Agreement, effective immediately (the "Seventh Modification Agreement"), pursuant to which the NM Loan Parties and NM agreed to extend the NM Credit Facility from October 10, 2024 to October 10, 2025 .

The Restated US Note and Restated Canadian Note (together, the "NM Notes") and the NM Loan Agreement together require the NM Borrowers to pay interest on the loans thereunder equal to: (i) the Prime Rate designated from time to time by Wells Fargo Bank; plus (ii) one and nine-tenths percentage points ( 1.90 %) or an aggregate minimum of 6.75 % per annum. In addition, the NM Borrowers are paying a facility fee to NM in an amount equal to: (i) for the year commencing on October 10, 2022, approximately $ 0.1 million plus 0.80 % of the amount of any advances other than under the US Revolving Credit Facility plus an additional facility fee of $ 15,000 for every incremental $1.0 million of loan balance in excess of $21.0 million, and (ii) for the year commencing on October 10, 2023, approximately $ 0.2 million plus 0.80 % of the amount of any advances other than under the US Revolving Credit Facility plus an additional facility fee of $ 15,000 for every incremental $1.0 million of loan balance in excess of $21.0 million. For the Sixth Modification Agreement, the NM Borrowers paid NM a fee of approximately $ 28,000 .

As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate interest rate was 10.40 % per annum and the aggregate outstanding loan balance was approximately $ 17.7 million, which is included within lines of credit and short-term loans in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate outstanding loan balance is divided between the US Revolving Credit Facility and the Canada Revolving Credit Facility as follows: (i) the outstanding loan balance under the US Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $ 16.7 million; and (ii) the outstanding loan balance under the Canada Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $ 1.0 million.

The NM Credit Facility contains certain financial and other restrictive covenants and also limits certain expenditures by the NM Loan Parties, including maintaining a positive trailing EBITDA for each the NM Borrowers (i.e., SMF and SCC) and imposes limits on all of the NM Loan Parties (including SGRP) on non-ordinary course payments and transactions, incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness, capital expenditures and certain other investments. The NM Loan Parties were in compliance with such covenants as of June 30, 2024 . The obligations of the NM Borrowers are secured by the receivables and other assets of the NM Borrowers and substantially all of the assets of the other NM Loan Parties.

2023 and 2022 Executive Deferred Compensation Agreements

The Corporation prepared a 2022 Stock Compensation Plan that would have included Awards for NQSOs and RSUs (as defined below), but that plan was never submitted to its shareholders for approval. However, the Board had previously approved, for certain key executives, incentive stock-based awards for 2023 and 2022 using RSUs or cash. Since there were no plan based RSUs available, those executives instead received deferred compensation in the form of Phantom Stock Units ("PSUs"), which correspond to an equal number of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock ("SGRP Shares"). The number of PSUs received equals the dollar value of the incentive award divided by the per share market price of SGRP shares on the date of award. Each PSU represents the right of the grantee to receive cash payments based on the fair market value of SGRP Shares at the time of vesting, but not to receive SGRP Shares themselves. The number of the Grantee's PSUs will be automatically adjusted to reflect the specified events respecting the SGRP Shares as provided in the applicable Phantom Stock Agreement. The PSUs do not possess the rights of common stockholders of the Corporation, including any voting or dividend rights, and cannot be exercised or traded for SGRP Shares.

Effective as of March 24, 2022 (the "2022 Grant Date"), the Corporation issued an award of 111,111 PSUs to each of its Executives: Kori G. Belzer; William Linnane; and Ron Lutz. Vesting will occur in three tranches of one-third each over the three (3) year period following the 2022 Grant Date, provided that: (i) the Grantee is an employee of the Company at the time; and (ii) the Corporation achieved 90% of the agreed upon financial target for 2022. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had determined that the 2022 performance target had not been met and the first tranche of those PSUs did not vest. The Board approved in October 2023 that the second and third tranches of those PSUs will respectively vest on the second and third anniversary of the 2022 Grant Date with no additional vesting criteria.

If the first-year metrics are achieved, the second and third tranches will respectively vest on the second and third anniversary of the 2023 Grant Date with no additional vesting criteria.

Subsequent Events

With the exception of those below, there are no additional subsequent events through August 14, 2024, the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were available for issuance.

Potential Going Private Transaction

As previously announced on June 5, 2024, SGRP has entered into a letter of intent ("LOI") with Highwire Capital ("Highwire"), pursuant to which Highwire intends to acquire all of the stock of SGRP for $ 2.50 per fully diluted share in cash, representing an aggregate purchase price of $ 58,000,000 (subject to certain adjustments) subject to (among other things) completion of mutually acceptable definitive documentation and approval by SGRP’s stockholders. This proposed acquisition was unanimously approved by the Board and a Special Committee of Independent Directors after lengthy evaluations of a full range of strategic alternatives. The LOI is non-binding, in all respects, other than a defined term of exclusivity and certain legal terms. The LOI set forth a forty-five day minimum exclusivity term in favor of Highwire, automatically extended by successive two-week increments in the event SGRP and Highwire continue to negotiate in good faith toward entering into a material definitive agreement. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, SGRP and Highwire continue in good faith to negotiate definitive merger documents so the agreed upon exclusivity currently continues in effect.

Agreement to sell SPAR's 100% ownership interest in SPAR Japan

On July 23, 2024, the company entered into an agreement to sell its 100 % ownership interest in SPAR Japan for an estimated $ 500,000 (depending upon final exchange rates). The sale is expected to close on August 30, 2024 and there are no closing conditions in the agreement.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of our operating performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as net income before (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, (iii) income tax expense, (iv) Board of Directors incremental compensation expense, (v) restructuring, (vi) goodwill impairment, (vii) nonrecurring legal settlement costs and associated legal expenses unrelated to the Company's core operations, and (viii) special items as determined by management. This metric is a supplemental measure of our operating performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA in future periods, and any such modification may be material. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries.

Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends in our core operating performance compared to other measures, which can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. We also use Adjusted to supplement U.S. GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies and to make budgeting decisions.

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA has its limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include:

● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditure or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in our cash requirements for our working capital needs;

● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense and the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for replacement of assets that are being depreciated and amortized;

● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect non-cash compensation, which is a key element of our overall long-term compensation;

● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges or cash receipts resulting from matters we do not find indicative of our ongoing operations; and

● Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in those financial statements and related notes thereto. However, we believe we have used reasonable estimates and assumptions in preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates, actual results reported in future periods could differ from those estimates.

The significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are described in our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and the notes thereto, which are included in the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2024. Except as detailed in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

The Company believes that based upon the continuation of the Company's existing credit facilities, projected results of operations, vendor payment requirements and other financing available to the Company (including amounts due to affiliates), sources of cash availability should be manageable and sufficient to support ongoing working capital and capital expenditure requirements over the next 12 months. However, delays in collection of receivables due from any of the Company's major clients, a significant reduction in business from such clients, or a negative economic downturn, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, cash resources, and ongoing ability to fund operations.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as our principal financial and accounting officer, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and, based on their evaluation, have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not detect or prevent misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management utilized the criteria established in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) to conduct an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2024.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2024, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
