NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Bio-Techne Corporation and Subsidiaries

(unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

The interim consolidated financial statements of Bio-Techne Corporation and subsidiaries, (the Company) presented here have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. They have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024. A summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Company is detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024. The Company follows these policies in preparation of the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company manages its business under two operating segments, Protein Sciences and Diagnostics and Spatial Biology (formerly Diagnostics and Genomics). The name change is intended to better reflect the focus and scope of our offerings. The manner in which we operate our business and review discrete financial information did not change. Segment information presented herein reflects the updated name of the operating segment. The operating segments the Company operated under were consistent with the Company's operating segments disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024.

Investments: In July 2024, the Company ~~paid~~invested $15.0 million ~~to enter into an investment~~ in Spear Bio. This investment is accounted for under the cost-method as we own less than 20% of the outstanding stock and we concluded that we do not have significant influence of the investee. Under the cost-method, the fair value is not estimated if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances. No such events or changes in circumstances were identified in the period ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025. The Company’s total investment of $15.0 million is included within Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In December 2021, the Company paid $25 million to enter into a two-part forward contract which requires the Company to make an initial ownership investment followed by purchase of full equity interest in Wilson Wolf Corporation (Wilson Wolf) if certain annual revenue or annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) thresholds are met. Wilson Wolf is a leading manufacturer of cell culture devices, including the G-Rex product line. ~~The first part of the forward contract is triggered upon Wilson Wolf achieving approximately $92 million in annual revenue or $55 million in EBITDA at any point prior to December 31, 2027.~~ During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the ~~Company~~first ~~determined~~part ~~that~~of ~~Wilson~~the ~~Wolf~~forward ~~had~~contract ~~met~~was ~~the~~triggered ~~EBITDA~~resulting ~~target.~~in Onthe ~~March~~Company ~~31,~~acquiring ~~2023,~~19.9% ~~the~~of ~~Company~~Wilson ~~paid~~Wolf for an additional payment of $232 million toon ~~acquire~~March ~~19.9%~~31, ~~of Wilson Wolf~~2023.

Since the first part of the forward contract has been triggered, the second part of the forward contract will automatically trigger, and requires the Company to acquire the remaining equity interest in Wilson Wolf on December 31, 2027 based on a revenue multiple of approximately 4.4 times trailing twelve month revenue. The second part of the contract would be accelerated in advance of December 31, 2027, if Wilson Wolf meets its second milestone of approximately $226 million in annual revenue or $136 million in annual EBITDA. If the second milestone is achieved, the forward contract requires the Company to pay approximately $1 billion plus potential consideration for revenue in excess of the revenue milestone.

Table of Contents

The investment in Wilson Wolf is accounted for as an equity method investment under ASC 323. The Company initially records its equity method investments at the amount of the Company’s investment and adjusts each period for the Company’s share of the investee’s income or loss and dividends paid. Distributions from the equity method investee are accounted for using the cumulative earnings approach on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. For the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, 2025 and 2024, the ~~gain on the~~ investment in Wilson Wolf ~~was~~had ~~not~~a ~~material~~loss of $0.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. In the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, 2025 and 2024, there was a loss of $0.42 million ofand ~~gain~~$6.0 million, respectively, recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income related to the investment. The Company’s total investment ofat March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was $~~241~~239.5 million and $242.3 million and is included within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Restructuring actions: Restructuring actions generally include significant actions involving employee-related severance charges, contract termination costs, and impairments and disposals of assets associated with such actions. Employee-related severance charges are based upon distributed employment policies and substantive severance plans. These charges are reflected in the quarter when the actions are probable and the amounts are estimable, which typically is when management approves the associated actions. Asset-related and other charges include impairment of right-of-use assets, leasehold improvements, other asset write-downs associated with combining operations, disposal of assets and other exit costs. Other costs also includes restructuring-related charges, which are incremental costs incurred directly supporting business transformation initiatives tied to the restructuring action.

Fiscal Year 2025 Restructuring Actions:

In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company announced enterprise-wide restructuring focused on recovering operating margins and optimizing our manufacturing footprint. The Company is expecting to incur costs related to these actions through fiscal 2026, which will be recorded when specified criteria are met.

As part of these actions, certain assets and liabilities associated with a disposal group in our Protein Sciences segment were classified as held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023, including $1.4 million of goodwill allocated to the disposal group on a relative fair value basis. As a result of an impairment test performed over the disposal group during fiscal 2024, a cumulative impairment charge of $22.0 million which includes the allocated goodwill, was recorded in the Selling, general and administrative line in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the year ended June 30, 2024. There ~~were~~was noa ~~impairment~~recovery ~~charges~~ related to the disposal group during the ~~first~~quarter ~~half~~and ofnine ~~fiscal~~months ended March 31, 2025 of $3.7 million. During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a buyer to purchase the remaining inventory for approximately $8 million. As part of the arrangement, the Company and the buyer entered into a promissory note that will mature in February 2027 and agrees that the buyer shall pay in quarterly installments. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the fair value of the note receivable was approximately $6 million and is included within Other current assets and Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the assets remaining within the disposal group primarily include the land and building of $14.07 million, which is net of expected selling costs. These assets are actively marketed at a fair value based on market conditions such that the held-for-sale criterion are still met. The held-for-sale assets are recorded in Current assets held-for-sale in our Consolidated Balance sheet as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 and June 30, 2024.

Protein Sciences Realignment

In December 2022, the Company informed employees it would undertake certain actions to strategically reallocate operations resources to high growth areas of the business. Additional actions were taken in June 2023 primarily related to the sales organization. The actions impacted a limited number of employees and were completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. As a result of the realignment, a pre-tax charge of $1.7 million related to employee severance was recorded in the Selling, general and administrative line of operating income within our Protein Sciences segment during the year ended June 30, 2023. Adjustments in fiscal year 2024 related to the refinement of employee severance payouts. Additional pre-tax charges for the year ended June 30, 2024 were $0.2 million. Restructuring actions, including cash and non-cash impacts, were as follows (in thousands):

Legal Matters: The Company and its affiliates are involved in a number of legal actions from time to time involving product liability, employment, intellectual property and commercial disputes, shareholder related matters, environmental proceedings, tax disputes, and governmental proceedings and investigations. With respect to governmental proceedings and investigations, like other companies in our industry, the Company is subject to extensive regulation by national, state, and local governmental agencies in the United States and in other jurisdictions in which the Company and its affiliates operate. The Company’s standard practice is to cooperate with regulators and investigators in responding to inquiries. The outcomes of legal actions are not within the Company’s complete control and may not be known for prolonged periods of time. In some actions, the enforcement agencies or private claimants seek damages, as well as other remedies (including injunctions barring the sale of products that are the subject of the proceeding), that could require significant expenditures, result in lost revenues, or limit the Company's ability to conduct business in the applicable jurisdictions.

The Company records a liability in the consolidated financial statements on an undiscounted basis for loss contingencies related to legal actions when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount may be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is accrued. If a loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable, and may be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed. When determining the estimated loss or range of loss, significant judgment is required. Estimates of probable losses resulting from litigation and governmental proceedings involving the Company are inherently difficult to predict, particularly when the matters are in early procedural stages with incomplete scientific facts or legal discovery, involve unsubstantiated or indeterminate claims for damages, potentially involve penalties, fines or punitive damages, or could result in a change in business practice. The Company classifies certain specified litigation charges and gains related to significant legal matters as certain litigation charges in the consolidated statements of income.

In August 2024, ~~794~~791,~~400~~204 shares of outstanding vested stock options related to former employees expired, which have now been excluded from the Company’s dilutive EPS calculation for the period ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025. Of the 791,204 shares, 779,084 shares belonged to the Company’s former CEO. The expiration date of these options iswas ~~currently~~previously under dispute. The ~~total~~dispute ~~net~~with ~~pre-tax~~the ~~value~~former ofCEO ~~these~~was ~~options~~resolved onthrough ~~the~~a ~~expiration~~binding ~~date~~arbitration ~~was~~award ~~approximately~~during ~~$32~~the ~~million.

The Company recognized $138.49 million and $140.76 million of certain litigation charges during the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025. There was no comparable activity during the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2023~~2024. As of each of the balance sheet dates presented, there was no accrued litigation. The ultimate cost to the Company with respect to accrued litigation could be materially different than the amount of the current estimates and accruals and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated earnings, financial position, and/or cash flows. The Company includes accrued litigation in Other current liabilities and Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. While it is not possible to predict the outcome for the legal matters included within our litigation charges line, the Company believes it is possible that the costs associated with these matters could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated earnings, financial position, and/or cash flows.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

There were no accounting pronouncements adopted in the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025. Refer to the Form 10-K for accounting pronouncements adopted prior to June 30, 2024.

Relevant New Standards Issued Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280), which requires incremental disclosures on reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures on significant segment expenses. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025 for our annual report and for interim periods starting in fiscal year 2026. We are currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740), which requires incremental annual disclosures on income taxes, including rate reconciliations, income taxes paid, and other disclosures. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026 for our annual report. We are currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statement disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement –Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires incremental disclosures on purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and other expenses. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2027 for our annual report. We are currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statement disclosures.

Other than the items noted above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective or adopted in the current year that we believe have a significant impact, or potential significant impact, on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Revenue Recognition:

Consumables revenues consist of specialized proteins, immunoassays, antibodies, reagents, blood chemistry and blood gas quality controls, and hematology instrument controls that are typically single-use products recognized at a point in time following the transfer of control of such products to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. Instruments revenues typically consist of longer-lived assets that, for the substantial majority of sales, are recognized at a point in time in a manner similar to consumables. Service revenues consist of extended warranty contracts, post contract support, and custom development projects that are recognized over time as either the customers receive and consume the benefits of such services simultaneously or the underlying asset being developed has no alternative use for the Company at contract inception and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for the portion of the performance completed. Service revenues also include laboratory services recognized at point in time.

We recognize royalty revenues in the period the sales occur using third party evidence. The Company elected the "right to invoice" practical expedient based on the Company's right to invoice a customer at an amount that approximates the value to the customer and the performance completed to date.

The Company elected the exemption to not disclose the unfulfilled performance obligations for contracts with an original length of one year or less and the exemption to exclude future performance obligations that are accounted under the sales-based or usage-based royalty guidance. The Company’s unfulfilled performance obligations for contracts with an original length greater than one year were not material as of ~~December~~March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024.

Contracts with customers that contain instruments may include multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. Allocation of the transaction price is determined at the contracts’ inception.

Payment terms for shipments to end-users are generally net 30 days. Payment terms for distributor shipments may range from 30 to 90 days. Service arrangements commonly call for payments in advance of performing the work (e.g. extended warranty and service contracts), upon completion of the service (e.g. custom development manufacturing) or a mix of both.

Contract assets include revenues recognized in advance of billings. Contract assets are included within Other current assets in the accompanying balance sheet as the amount of time expected to lapse until the Company's right to consideration becomes unconditional is less than one year. We elected the practical expedient allowing us to expense contract costs that would otherwise be capitalized and amortized over a period of less than one year. Contract assets as of ~~December~~March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, are not material.

Contract liabilities include billings in excess of revenues recognized, such as those resulting from customer advances and deposits and unearned revenue on warranty contracts. Contract liabilities as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 and June 30, 2024 were approximately $3035.46 million and $30.2 million, respectively. Contract liabilities as of June 30, 2024 subsequently recognized as revenue during the quarter and ~~six~~nine ~~month~~months ~~period~~ ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 were approximately $84.0 million and $1923.98 million, respectively. Contract liabilities as of June 30, 2023 subsequently recognized as revenue during the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2023~~2024 were approximately $73.12 million and $1819.85 million, respectively. Contract liabilities in excess of one year are included in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets.

Any claims for credit or return of goods must be made within 10 days of receipt. Revenues are reduced to reflect estimated credits and returns. Although the amounts recorded for these revenue deductions are dependent on estimates and assumptions, historically our adjustments to actual results have not been material.

Taxes collected from customers relating to product sales and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in revenue, while the related shipping and handling costs are reflected in cost of products. We elected the practical expedient that allows us to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control of a good as a fulfillment cost, and we accrue costs of shipping and handling when the related revenue is recognized.

The following tables present our disaggregated revenue for the periods presented.

Note 4. Acquisitions:

We periodically complete business combinations that align with our business strategy. Acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date and that the results of operations of each acquired business be included in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income from their respective dates of acquisitions. Acquisition costs are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses as incurred.

There were no acquisitions in the first ~~half~~nine months of fiscal 2025.

Tangible assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at fair value on the date of close based on management's assessment. The purchase price allocated to developed technology and customer relationships was based on management’s forecasted cash inflows and outflows and using a multiperiod excess earnings method to calculate the fair value of assets purchased. The purchase price allocated to trade names was based on management's forecasted cash inflows and outflows and using a relief from royalty method. The amount recorded for developed technology is being amortized with the expense reflected in cost of goods sold in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. The amortization period for developed technology is 14 years. Amortization expense related to customer relationships is reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. The amortization period for customer relationships is 8 years. The amount recorded for trade names is being amortized with the expense reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. The amortization period for trade names ranges from 4 years to 8 years. The net deferred income tax liability represents the net amount of the estimated future impact of adjustments for costs to be recognized as intangible asset amortization, which is not deductible for income tax purposes, offset by the deferred tax asset for the calculation of acquired net operating losses.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements:

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale investments, derivative instruments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, contingent consideration obligations, and long-term debt.

Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. This standard also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value. This standard maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability based upon the best information available in the circumstances.

The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability and their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. Level 3 may also include certain investment securities for which there is limited market activity or a decrease in the observability of market pricing for the investments, such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

Fair value measurements of derivative instruments

The Company utilizes forward starting swaps designated as a cash flow hedge on forecasted debt. The forward starting swaps reduce the variability of cash flow payments for the Company by converting the variable interest rate on the Company’s forecasted variable interest long-term debt to that of a fixed interest rate. Accordingly, as part of the forward starting swaps, the Company exchanges, at specified intervals, the difference between floating and fixed interest amounts based on a notional principal amount. The Company also uses a cross-currency swap contract to manage its exposure to foreign currency risk associated with the Company's net investment in its Swiss subsidiary.

The following table presents the contractual amounts of the Company's outstanding instruments (in millions):


		~~December~~March 31,		June 30,
Instruments	Designation	~~2024~~2025		2024
Forward starting swaps(1)	Cash flow hedge	$	300	$	300
Cross-currency swap(2)	Net investment hedge		140		150

(1) In May 2021, the Company entered into a forward starting swap designated as a cash flow hedge on forecasted debt based on $200 million of notional principal. The effective date of the swap was November 2022 with the full swap maturing in November 2025. In March 2023, the Company entered into a forward starting swap designated as a cash flow hedge on forecasted debt based on $100 million of notional principal. The effective date of the swap was April 2023 with the full swap maturing in April 2025. In August 2024, the Company entered into a new forward starting swap designated as a cash flow hedge on forecasted debt based on $100 million of notional principal that ~~will~~was to go into effect in April 2025. toThis ~~replace a~~ swap ~~that~~was ~~matures~~sold induring ~~April 2025. The effective date of~~ the ~~new~~quarter ~~swap~~ended isMarch ~~April~~31, 2025 ~~with~~for ~~the~~a ~~full~~gain ~~swap~~$0.6 ~~maturing in April 2026~~million.

⁽²⁾ In July 2023, the Company entered into a pay-fixed rate, receive-fixed rate cross-currency swap contract with a total notional amount of $150 million that was designated as a hedge to lock in the Swiss franc (CHF) rate for a portion of the Company's CHF net investment in its Lunaphore subsidiary in Switzerland. The objective of the hedge is to protect the net investment in the Company's CHF-denominated operations against changes in the spot exchange rates, on a pre-tax basis. The hedging instrument has three interim settlement dates, which will reduce the notional on the hedging instrument by $10 million at each interim date, and will reduce the notional to $110 million at maturity.

The pretax amount of the gains and losses on our hedging instruments and the classification of those gains and losses within our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the ~~three~~quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024 were as follows (in thousands):

Gains or losses related to the net investment hedges are classified as foreign currency translation adjustments in the schedule of changes in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) in Note 8, as these items are attributable to the Company’s hedges of its net investment in foreign operations. Gains or losses related to the cash flow hedges are classified as Unrealized gains (losses) on cash flow hedges in the schedule of changes in AOCI in Note 8.

Fair value measurements of other financial instruments – The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.

Cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, and accounts payable – The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Long-term debt – The carrying amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the amount drawn on our line-of-credit facility and long-term debt approximates fair value because our interest rate is variable and reflects current market rates.

Note 6. Debt and Other Financing Arrangements:

On August 31, 2022, the Company entered into a revolving line-of-credit and term loan by a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $1 billion, which can be increased by an additional $400 million subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and expenditures of the Company and its subsidiaries, including financing permitted acquisitions. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate. The current outstanding debt is based on the one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined from the total leverage ratio of the Company and updated on a quarterly basis. The annualized fee for any unused portion of the credit facility is currently 10 basis points.

The Credit Agreement matures on August 31, 2027 and contains customary restrictive and financial covenants and customary events of default. As of ~~December~~March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement was $~~300~~330.0 million and $319.0 million, respectively.

Note 7. Leases:

As a lessee, the Company leases offices, labs, and manufacturing facilities, as well as vehicles, copiers, and other equipment. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The discount rate used to calculate present value is Bio-Techne’s incremental borrowing rate or, if available, the rate implicit in the lease. Bio-Techne determines the incremental borrowing rate for each lease based primarily on its lease term and the economic environment of the applicable country or region. During the ~~six~~quarter and nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company recognized $21.64 million and $4.0 million in variable lease expense and $84.73 million and $13.0 million relating to fixed lease expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. During the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2024, the Company

Certain leases include one or more options to renew, with terms that extend the lease term up to five years. Bio-Techne includes the option to renew the lease as part of the right-of-use lease asset and liability when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise the option. In addition, certain leases contain fair value purchase and termination options with an associated penalty. In general, Bio-Techne is not reasonably certain to exercise such options.

Consolidated net earnings ~~increased~~decreased to $3422.96 million for the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 as compared to $2749.51 million for the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2023~~2024. The ~~increase~~decrease in net earnings is primarily due to ~~favorable volume leverage and~~ a non-recurring ~~prior~~arbitration ~~year impairment of a business held-for-sale~~award. Consolidated net earnings decreased to $6891.51 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 as compared to $78127.5 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2023~~2024. The decrease in net earnings is primarily due to a non-recurring arbitration award and restructuring and restructuring-related costs.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 increased 94% atto $~~297~~316.02 million compared to the same prior year period. Consolidated net sales for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 were $~~586~~902.57 million, an increase of 76% from the same prior year period.

Orgranic revenue for the nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 was ~~primarily~~ driven by broad based performance of our Diagnostics and Spatial Biology portfolio, ~~as well as improving biopharma end market conditions and~~ continued uptake of our cell and gene therapy workflow solutions, inand improving pharma end market conditions for our Protein Sciences segment.

Gross Margins

Consolidated gross margins for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 were 6567.39% and 6465.35%, respectively, compared to 6467.84% and 6566.84% for the same prior year periods. Under purchase accounting, inventory is valued at fair value less expected selling and marketing costs, resulting in reduced margins in future periods as the inventory is sold. Excluding the impact of costs recognized upon the sale of acquired inventory, amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and restructuring-related expenses, and the impact of a business held-for-sale, adjusted gross margins for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 were 7071.56% and 70.06%, respectively, compared to 6971.79% and 7071.50% for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2023~~2024, respectively. Fluctuations in consolidated gross margin and adjusted gross margin, as a percentage of sales, have primarily resulted from changes in product mix. We expect that, in the future, gross margins will continue to be impacted by the mix of our portfolio growing at different rates as well as future acquisitions.

Income Taxes

Income taxes were at an effective rate of 1841.60% and 1724.59% of consolidated earnings for the quarter and ~~six~~nine ~~month~~months ~~period~~ ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, respectively, compared to 1719.7% and 511.45% for the same respective prior year periods. The change in the Company’s tax rate for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 was driven by the composition and amount of net income across periods and the impact of discrete tax ~~benefits~~expenses of $27.25 million and $5.2.3 million, respectively, compared to prior year discrete tax benefits of $21.8 million and $16.36 million as further discussed in Note 12.

The forecasted tax rate as of the ~~second~~third fiscal quarter of 2025 before discrete items is 23.61% compared to the prior year forecasted tax rate before discrete items of 23.40%. Excluding the impact of discrete items, the Company expects the consolidated income tax rate for the remainder of fiscal 2025 to range from 23% to 27%.

Table of Contents

The difference between the reported GAAP tax rate and non-GAAP tax rate applied to the identified non-GAAP adjustments for the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 is primarily a result of discrete tax items, including the tax benefit of stock option exercises.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale investments were $~~177~~140.57 million as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, compared to $152.9 million as of June 30, 2024. Included in the available-for-sale-investments as of June 30, 2024 were certificates of deposit that have maturity dates within one year of $1.1 million. During the first fiscal quarter of 2025, the certificates of deposit reached maturity. The Company had no available-for-sale investments as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025.

The Company has a line-of-credit governed by a Credit Agreement dated August 31, 2022 that will mature on August 31, 2027. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, there is $~~700~~670 million available on the line-of-credit. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the Credit Agreement.

During fiscal year 2022, the Company paid $25 million to enter into a two-part forward contract which requires the Company to purchase the full equity interest in Wilson Wolf if certain annual revenue or EBITDA thresholds are met. During fiscal year 2023, Wilson Wolf met the EBITDA target and the Company paid an additional $232 million to acquire 19.9% of Wilson Wolf. Since the first part of the forward contract has been triggered, the second part of the forward contract will automatically trigger, which requires the Company to acquire the remaining 80.1% of Wilson Wolf on December 31, 2027. The second part of the contract would be accelerated in advance of December 31, 2027 if Wilson Wolf meets certain financial milestones. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the second milestones have not been met. The second option payment of ~~approximately~~up to $1 billion plus potential contingent consideration is forecasted to occur between fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2028.

Management of the Company expects to be able to meet its cash and working capital requirements for operations, facility expansion, capital additions, and cash dividends for the foreseeable future, and at least the next 12 months, through currently available cash, cash generated from operations, and remaining credit available on its existing revolving line of credit.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024 and are incorporated herein by reference. The application of certain of these policies requires judgments and estimates that can affect the results of operations and financial position of the Company. Judgments and estimates are used for, but not limited to, valuation of available-for-sale investments, inventory valuation and allowances, valuation of intangible assets and goodwill and valuation of investments in unconsolidated entities. There have been no significant changes in estimates in the quarter or ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 that would require disclosure nor have there been any changes to the Company's policies.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” in Item 2, contains financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). These non-GAAP measures include:

●Organic revenue

●Adjusted gross margin

●Adjusted operating margin

●Adjusted net earnings and diluted earnings per share

●Adjusted effective tax rate

We provide these measures as additional information regarding our operating results. We use these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate our performance and in making financial and operational decisions, including with respect to incentive compensation. We believe that our presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency with respect to our results of operations and that these measures are useful for period-to-period comparison of results.

Our non-GAAP financial measure of organic revenue represents revenue growth excluding revenue from acquisitions within the preceding 12 months, the impact of foreign currency, the impact of businesses held-for-sale, as well as the impact of partially-owned consolidated subsidiaries. Excluding these measures provides more useful period-to-period comparison of revenue results as it excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, which can vary significantly from period to period, and revenue from acquisitions that would not be included in the comparable prior period. Revenues from businesses held-for-sale are excluded from our organic revenue calculation starting on the date they become held-for-sale as those revenues will not be comparative in future periods. Revenues from partially-owned subsidiaries consolidated in our financial statements are also excluded from our organic revenue calculation, as those revenues are not fully attributable to the Company. There was no revenue from partially-owned consolidated subsidiaries in fiscal year 2024 or fiscal year 2025.

Table of Contents

Our non-GAAP financial measures for adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating margin, and adjusted net earnings, in total and on a per share basis, exclude stock-based compensation, which is inclusive of the employer portion of payroll taxes on those stock awards, the costs recognized upon the sale of acquired inventory, amortization of acquisition intangibles, restructuring and restructuring-related costs. Stock-based compensation is excluded from non-GAAP adjusted net earnings because of the nature of this charge, specifically the varying available valuation methodologies, subjection assumptions, variety of award types, and unpredictability of amount and timing of employer related tax obligations. The Company excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets, purchase accounting adjustments, including costs recognized upon the sale of acquired inventory and other non-recurring items including gains or losses on goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges, and one-time assessments from this measure because they occur as a result of specific events, and are not reflective of our internal investments, the costs of developing, producing, supporting and selling our products, and the other ongoing costs to support our operating structure. Costs related to restructuring and restructuring-related activities, including reducing overhead and consolidating facilities, are excluded because we believe they are not indicative of our normal operating costs. Additionally, these amounts can vary significantly from period to period based on current activity. The Company also excludes revenue and expense attributable to partially-owned consolidated subsidiaries as well as revenue and expense attributable to businesses held-for-sale in the calculation of our non-GAAP financial measures.

The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted operating margin and adjusted net earnings, in total and on a per share basis, also excludes acquisition related expenses inclusive of the changes in fair value of contingent consideration, and other non-recurring items including certain costs related to the transition to a new CEO, goodwill and long-lived asset impairments, and gains. We also exclude certain litigation charges which are facts and circumstances specific including costs to resolve litigation and legal settlement (gains and losses). In some cases, these costs may be a result of litigation matters at acquired companies that were not probable, inestimable, or unresolved at the time of acquisition.

The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted net earnings, in total and on a per share basis, also excludes gain and losses from investments, as they are not part of our day-to-day operating decisions (excluding our equity method investment in Wilson Wolf as it is certain to be acquired in the future) and certain adjustments to income tax expense. Additionally, gains and losses from investments that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability are excluded. The Company independently calculates a non-GAAP adjusted tax rate to be applied to the identified non-GAAP adjustments considering the impact of discrete items on these adjustments and the jurisdictional mix of the adjustments. In addition, the tax impact of other discrete and non-recurring charges which impact our reported GAAP tax rate are adjusted from net earnings. We believe these tax items can significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results and not necessarily reflect costs and/or income associated with historical trends and future results.

The Company periodically reassesses the components of our non-GAAP adjustments for changes in how we evaluate our performance, changes in how we make financial and operational decisions, and considers the use of these measures by our competitors and peers to ensure the adjustments are still relevant and meaningful.

Readers are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the adjusted financial measures used in management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Company to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures provided within the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Forward-looking statements include those regarding the Company's expectations as to the effect of changes to accounting policies, the amount of capital expenditures for the remainder of the fiscal year, the source of funding for capital expenditure requirements, the sufficiency of currently available funds for meeting the Company's needs, the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and expectations regarding gross margin fluctuations, increasing research and development expenses, increasing selling, general and administrative expenses and income tax rates. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that may affect the actual results of operations. The following important factors, among others, have affected and, in the future, could affect the Company's actual results: integration of newly acquired businesses, the introduction and acceptance of new products, general national and international economic, political, regulatory, and other conditions, increased competition, the reliance on internal manufacturing and related operations, supply chain challenges, the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations, the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel, the impact of governmental regulation, maintenance of intellectual property rights, credit risk and fluctuation in the market value of the Company's investment portfolio, and unseen delays and expenses related to facility construction and improvements. For additional information concerning such factors, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Part II. Item 1A below.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company's management has evaluated, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of ~~February~~May 68, 2025, the Company is not a party to any legal proceedings that, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

During the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, there have been no material changes from the risk factors found in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024 except as noted below.

37Changing conditions and uncertainty in global markets including the impact of tariffs, sanctions, quotas, import restrictions, and other trade actions may adversely affect our operations and financial results.

Developments or changes in national laws or policies to protect or promote domestic interests and/or address foreign competition can have an adverse effect on our business and financial statements. Developments or changes in national laws or policies to protect or promote domestic interests and/or address foreign competition, including laws and policies in areas such as trade, manufacturing, government purchasing, healthcare, intellectual property, regulatory enforcement and investment/development, can adversely affect our business and financial statements. The U.S. has announced and/or implemented new tariffs on imports from a wide range of countries, which has prompted retaliatory tariffs, or changes to existing tariffs, by a number of countries. In early April 2025, the U.S. and certain other countries delayed the effective date of certain tariffs, and subsequently the U.S. and certain other countries implemented a number of exclusions applicable to certain types of products and/or industries. As of the date of this report a number of the recently-imposed tariffs remain in effect, including significant tariffs between the U.S. and China. Collectively, these tariffs have increased and will continue to increase the cost to us of supplies and components we import, as well as our cost to serve certain markets, which in turn will require us to bear significant increased costs to do business, and/or implement surcharges, and/or increase the price of certain of our products. As a result of any surcharge or price increase, there may be an adverse impact on the demand for our products, as well as an adverse impact as to our ability to serve the market in certain countries. The increased cost of importing raw materials and components from certain countries may disrupt our supply chains, with related impacts to our operations. In addition, whenever we are unable to fully recover higher costs, or whenever there is a time delay between the increase in costs and our ability to recover these costs, our margins and profitability can decline. The U.S. and/or other countries may implement additional tariffs and/or other responsive or retaliatory measures, and which would exacerbate the risks and adverse effects noted above. Though the risks identified above in certain cases have already adversely impacted part of our business, the full impact of these tariffs and other actions on the Company and on our business partners remains highly uncertain and subject to rapid change.
