“Interest expense Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 June 29, 2025 June 30, 2026 June 29, 2025 Interest expense $ 28.0 $ 21.7 $ 53.7 $ 40.2 Average interest rate on debt 3.8 % 4.1 % 3.6 % 4.1 % The increase in interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year periods was primarily due to an increase in the average outstanding debt balance stemming from borrowings utilized to fund the VI Business acquisition, partially offset by a lower average interest rate resulting from decreases in interest rates associated with our variable interest rate debt instruments.”
“Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased 370 basis points, or 6.1%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the adverse impact from tariffs enacted in 2025, the unfavorable impact from the amortization of the step-up in carrying value of inventory and intangible assets recognized in connection with the VI Business acquisition, the lower gross margin profile of the VI Business and an increase in costs for quality remediation and excess and obsolete inventory charges.”
