- Acquisition of Essco Calibration Laboratory, LLC — Fair Value of Customer Base & Contracts Intangible Asset — Refer to Note 9 of the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company completed the acquisition of Essco Calibration Laboratory, LLC (“Essco”) on August 5, 2025.
- Based on the results of the Company's impairment assessments in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, the Company was able to conclude that it was more likely than not that the fair values of the reporting units exceeded the carrying values. 56 Table of Contents A summary of changes in the Company’s goodwill is as follows (amounts in thousands): Goodwill Distribution Service Total Book Value as of March 30, 2024 38,216 67,369 105,585 Additions 21,783 49,896 71,679 Currency Translation Adjustment - ( 336 ) ( 336 ) Book Value as of March 29, 2025 59,999 116,929 176,928 Additions - 41,364 41,364 Measurement Period Adjustments - ( 287 ) ( 287 ) Currency Translation Adjustment - 180 180 Book Value as of March 28, 2026 $ 59,999 $ 158,186 $ 218,185 As of March 28, 2026, no accumulated impairment loss has been recognized for the Company's goodwill.

No longer disclosed
- For example, the acquisition of NEXA (recently rebranded to Transcat Solutions), a service segment business focused on the technical, consulting and staffing solutions market, expanded the scope of services we offer beyond our traditional calibration services and required more time for us to fully integrate into our operating plan.
- For example, the United States has recently instituted or proposed changes in trade policies that include the negotiation or termination of trade agreements, the imposition of higher tariffs on imports into the United States, economic sanctions on individuals, corporations or countries, and other government regulations affecting trade between the United States and other countries.
- For example, the additional reporting requirements relating to tracking greenhouse gas emissions and other climate-related disclosure from various U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions could significantly increase our accounting, consulting and legal expenses.
- For example, we sell our products and services to customers in several industries that may experience rapid technological changes, new product introductions, and evolving industry standards, including highly regulated industries.
- For example, in the Transcat Solutions business, our revenue has been negatively impacted in part by delayed starts for customer projects, which has prevented us from fully utilizing all of our technical service providers.
- Determinations of significant write-offs of goodwill or intangible assets because of an impairment test or any accelerated amortization of other intangible assets could have a material negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition. 15 Table of Contents Tariffs imposed or threatened by the United States and other countries, as well as changing trade relations, regional and international conflicts, and political conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
- Successfully integrating acquisitions involves many challenges, including: ● The difficulty of integrating acquired operations and personnel with our existing operations; ● Implementing or remediating controls, procedures, and policies at the acquired company; ● Integrating the acquired company’s accounting, enterprise resource management and other administrative systems; ● In the case of foreign acquisitions, the need to integrate operations across different cultures and languages and to address the particular economic, currency, political, and regulatory risks associated with specific countries; ● Currency and regulatory risks associated with operations in foreign countries; ● The difficulty of developing, marketing and forecasting demand for new products and services; ● Assessing the technology infrastructure and cyber and data security risk profile of the acquired company and integrating its systems into our IT systems, networks and services; ● Diverting management’s attention while evaluating, negotiating and integrating acquisitions; ● Our exposure to unforeseen liabilities of acquired companies; and ● The potential loss of key employees of an acquired operation.
- In addition, an acquisition could adversely impact cash flows and/or operating results, and dilute shareholder interests for many reasons, including: ● Charges to our income to reflect the impairment of acquired intangible assets, including goodwill; ● Contingent consideration payments; ● Agreements to provide indemnification for certain potential liabilities; ● Interest costs and debt service requirements for any debt incurred in connection with an acquisition or new business venture; and ● Any issuance of securities in connection with an acquisition or new business venture that dilutes or lessens the rights of our current shareholders.
- In addition, to successfully complete targeted acquisitions, we may issue additional equity securities that could dilute our shareholders’ ownership, or we may incur additional debt, which would increase our leverage and our risk of default under our existing credit facility.
- Certain of the acquisition agreements by which we have acquired companies or may, in the future, acquire companies generally require the former owners to indemnify us against certain liabilities related to the operation of the company before we acquired it.
- The potential consequences of a material cybersecurity incident include reputational damage, compromised employee, customer, or third-party information, litigation with third parties, regulatory actions, and increased cybersecurity protection and remediation costs, which in turn could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
- If our CalTrak ®, Application Plus or other management information systems fail to adequately perform these functions, experience an interruption in their operation or a security breach, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
