AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Amounts in thousands, except share (unless otherwise stated), per share and option amounts) 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Shareholders’ Equity as of May 31, 2026, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Earnings for the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 and June 1, 2025, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the 13-week periods then ended have been prepared by Park Aerospace Corp. (the “Company”), without audit. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at May 31, 2026 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any subsequent interim period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 1, 2026. There have been no significant changes to such accounting policies during the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026. 2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability ( i.e ., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability ( e.g. , interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals or current market) and contractual prices for the underlying financial instrument, as well as other relevant economic measures. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. 8 The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature. Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are required to be recorded at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis. On a recurring basis, the Company records its marketable securities at fair value using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. (See Note 3). The Company’s non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and any long-lived assets written down to fair value. To measure fair value of such assets, the Company uses Level 3 inputs consisting of techniques including an income approach and a market approach. The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow analysis and calculates the fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis require the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates, terminal values, growth rates and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. With respect to goodwill, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that fair value is less than carrying value. If, based on that assessment, the Company believes it is more likely than not that fair value is less than carrying value, a goodwill impairment test is performed. 3. MARKETABLE SECURITIES All marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included in comprehensive earnings. Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts, and interest and dividend income are included in interest and other income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The costs of securities sold are based on the specific identification method. The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities: May 31, 2026 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 U.S. Treasury and other government securities $ 8,926 $ 8,926 $ - $ - Total marketable securities $ 8,926 $ 8,926 $ - $ - March 1, 2026 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 U.S. Treasury and other government securities $ 10,874 $ 10,874 $ - $ - Total marketable securities $ 10,874 $ 10,874 $ - $ - 9 The following table shows the amortized cost basis of, and gross unrealized gains and losses on, the Company’s available-for-sale securities: Amortized Cost Basis Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses May 31, 2026: U.S. Treasury and other government securities $ 8,976 $ - $ 50 Total marketable securities $ 8,976 $ - $ 50 March 1, 2026: U.S. Treasury and other government securities $ 10,964 $ 2 $ 92 Total marketable securities $ 10,964 $ 2 $ 92 The estimated fair values of such securities at May 31, 2026 by contractual maturity are shown below: Due in one year or less $ 8,926 4. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketability based upon the age of the inventory and assumptions about future demand for the Company’s products and market conditions. Work-in-process and finished goods inventories cost valuations include direct material costs as well as a portion of the Company’s overhead expenses. The Company’s overhead expenses that are applied to its finished goods inventories are based on actual expenses related to the procurement, storage, shipment and production of the finished goods. Inventories consisted of the following: May 31, March 1, 2026 2026 Inventories: Raw materials $ 5,609 $ 5,369 Work-in-process 1,606 1,347 Finished goods 586 695 $ 7,801 $ 7,411 10 5. LEASES The Company has operating leases related to land, office space, warehouse space and equipment. All of the Company’s leases have been assessed to be operating leases. Renewal options are included in the lease terms to the extent the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the options. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. The incremental borrowing rate represents the Company’s ability to borrow on a collateralized basis over a term similar to the lease term. The leases typically contain renewal options for periods ranging from one year to ten years and require the Company to pay real estate taxes and other operating costs. The latest land lease expiration is 2068 assuming exercise of all applicable renewal options by the Company. The Company’s existing leases are not subject to any restrictions or covenants which preclude its ability to pay dividends, obtain financing or exercise its available renewal options. Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases as of May 31, 2026 are as follows: Fiscal Year: 2027 $ 44 2028 61 2029 65 2030 59 2031 16 Thereafter 127 Total undiscounted operating lease payments 372 Less imputed interest ( 65 ) Present value of operating lease payments $ 307 The above payment schedule includes renewal options that the Company is reasonably likely to exercise. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. For the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 and June 1, 2025, the Company’s operating lease expenses were $ 17 and $ 17 , respectively. Cash payments for the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 and June 1, 2025 of $ 15 and $ 14 , respectively, pertaining to operating leases, are reflected in the cash flow statement under cash flows from operating activities. The following table sets forth the right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of May 31, 2026 and March 1, 2026: May 31, March 1, 2026 2026 Operating right-of-use assets $ 243 $ 256 Operating lease liabilities $ 45 $ 44 Long-term operating lease liabilities 262 273 Total operating lease liabilities $ 307 $ 317 At May 31, 2026 and March 1, 2026, the Company’s weighted average remaining lease terms for its operating leases were 5.42 years and 5.59 years, respectively, and the weighted average borrowing rates for its operating leases were 4.98 % and 4.98 %, respectively. 11 6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION As of May 31, 2026, the Company had a 2018 Stock Option Plan (the “2018 Plan”) and no other stock-based compensation plan. The 2018 Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on May 8, 2018, approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company on July 24, 2018, and amended by the shareholders of the Company on July 18, 2024 and provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 1,550,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Prior to the 2018 Plan, the Company had the 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”) which had been approved by the Company’s shareholders and provided for the grant of stock options to directors and key employees of the Company. All options granted under the 2018 Plan and 2002 Plan have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock of the Company at the time of grant which, pursuant to the terms of such Plans, is the reported closing price of the common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date preceding the date the option is granted. Options granted under the Plans become exercisable 25 % one year after the date of grant, with an additional 25 % exercisable each succeeding anniversary of the date of grant, and expire 10 years after the date of grant. Upon termination of employment or service as a director, all options held by the optionee that have not previously become exercisable shall terminate and all other options held by such optionee may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of such termination, for a limited time after such termination. Any shares of common stock subject to an option under the 2018 Plan, which expires or is terminated unexercised as to such shares, shall again become available for issuance under the 2018 Plan. The future compensation expense to be recognized in earnings before income taxes for options outstanding at May 31, 2026 was $ 666 , which is expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted average vesting period of 1.22 years. The following is a summary of option activity for the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026: Outstanding Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value Balance, March 1, 2026 740,478 $ 12.89 Granted - - Exercised - - Terminated or expired ( 700 ) 13.68 Balance, May 31, 2026 739,778 $ 12.89 6.38 $ 14,038 Vested and exercisable, May 31, 2026 477,974 $ 12.48 5.23 $ 9,269 7. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the sum of (a) the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and (b) the potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Stock options are the Company’s only potentially dilutive securities; and the number of dilutive options is computed using the treasury stock method. 12 The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share: 13 Weeks Ended May 31, 2026 June 1, 2025 Net earnings $ 3,533 $ 2,080 Weighted average common shares outstanding for basic EPS 20,878 19,919 Net effect of dilutive options 350 49 Weighted average shares outstanding for diluted EPS 21,228 19,968 Basic earnings per share $ 0.17 $ 0.10 Diluted earnings per share $ 0.17 $ 0.10 Potentially dilutive securities, which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because either the effect would have been anti-dilutive or the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock, were 0 and 335,338 for the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 and June 1, 2025, respectively. 8. SHAREHOLDERS ’ EQUITY On May 23, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company’s purchase, on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions, of up to 1,500,000 additional shares of its common stock. This authorization superseded any unused prior Board of Directors’ authorizations to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company purchased 0 and 166,955 shares of its common stock during the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 and June 1, 2025, respectively. As a result, the Company is authorized to purchase up to a total of 781,766 shares of its common stock, representing approximately 3.6 % of the Company’s 21,751,211 total outstanding shares as of the close of business on July 7, 2026. There is no assurance the Company will purchase any shares pursuant to this Board of Directors’ authorization. Shares purchased by the Company, if any, will be retained as treasury stock and will be available for use under the Company’s stock option plan and for other corporate purposes. On January 13, 2026, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Needham & Company, LLC (“Needham”) and Citizens JMP Securities, LLC (“Citizens”) (the “Distribution Agreement”) with respect to an at the market offering program under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock, par value $ 0.10 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 50,000 through Needham and Citizens as its sales agents or principals. The Company is not obligated to sell any shares under the Distribution Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Distribution Agreement, Needham and Citizens will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with their normal trading and sales practices and applicable laws and regulations, to sell shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time based upon instructions received from the Company, including any price, time or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions specified, subject to certain limitations. Under the Distribution Agreement, Needham and Citizens may sell shares of the Company’s common stock by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at-the-market offering program" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The issuance and sale, if any, of shares of the Company’s common stock under the Distribution Agreement are made pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 13, 2026 and was declared effective on January 21, 2026. The offering is described in a prospectus filed as part of the registration statement. During the fiscal year ended March 1, 2026, the Company sold 942,749 shares under the Distribution Agreement for gross proceeds of $ 22,822 . The Company incurred expenses, including commissions, legal and accounting fees of $ 1,086 related to the offering. In June 2026, the Company completed the program by selling 869,852 shares for gross proceeds of $ 27,174 . 13 9. INCOME TAXES For the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $ 1,268 , which included a discrete income tax provision of $ 0 . For the 13 weeks ended June 1, 2025, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $ 694 , which included a discrete income tax provision of $( 28 ). The Company’s effective tax rate for the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 was 26.4 % compared to 25.0 % in the comparable prior year period. The effective tax rate for the 13 weeks ended May 31, 2026 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21 % primarily due to state and local taxes. The effective tax rate for the 13 weeks ended June 1, 2025 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21 % primarily due to state and local taxes and discrete income tax provisions for the accrual of interest related to unrecognized tax benefits. 10. GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS The Company’s products are sold to customers in North America, Asia and Europe. The Company’s manufacturing facility is located in Kansas. Sales are attributed to geographic regions based upon the region in which the materials were delivered to the customer. All of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in North America. Financial information regarding the Company’s operations by geographic region is as follows: 13 Weeks Ended May 31, 2026 June 1, 2025 Net Sales: North America $ 17,164 $ 14,315 Asia 253 411 Europe 895 674 Total net sales $ 18,312 $ 15,400 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Litigation The Company is subject to a small number of immaterial proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, employment, product and other matters. The Company is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes in these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of reserves required, if any, for these contingencies is made after careful analysis of each individual issue. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of such proceedings, lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, capital resources, business, consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company. 14 Environmental Contingencies The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been named by the Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) or a comparable state agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (the “Superfund Act”) or similar state law as potentially responsible parties in connection with alleged releases of hazardous substances at three sites. Under the Superfund Act and similar state laws, all parties who may have contributed any waste to a hazardous waste disposal site or contaminated area identified by the EPA or comparable state agency may be jointly and severally liable for the cost of cleanup. Generally, these sites are locations at which numerous persons disposed of hazardous waste. In the case of the Company’s subsidiaries, generally the waste was removed from their manufacturing facilities and disposed at waste sites by various companies which contracted with the subsidiaries to provide waste disposal services. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries have been accused of or charged with any wrongdoing or illegal acts in connection with any such sites. The Company believes it maintains an effective and comprehensive environmental compliance program. The insurance carriers which provided general liability insurance coverage to the Company and its subsidiaries for the years during which the Company’s subsidiaries’ waste was disposed at these three sites have in the past reimbursed the Company and its subsidiaries for 100 % of their legal defense and remediation costs associated with two of these sites. The Company does not record environmental liabilities and related legal expenses for which the Company believes that it and its subsidiaries have general liability insurance coverage for the years during which the Company’s subsidiaries’ waste was disposed at two sites for which certain subsidiaries of the Company have been named as potentially responsible parties. Pursuant to such general liability insurance coverage, three insurance carriers reimburse the Company and its subsidiaries for 100% of the legal defense and remediation costs associated with the two sites. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses are charges for actual expenditures and accruals, based on estimates, for certain environmental matters described above. The Company accrues estimated costs associated with known environmental matters when such costs can be reasonably estimated and when the outcome appears probable. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of known environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position. Commitments On March 27, 2025, Park and ArianeGroup SAS entered into an agreement under which Park would advance funds to ArianeGroup SAS against future purchases of C2®B product in the total amount of € 4,587 payable in three installments in 2025, 2026, and 2027. The advance is to be paid as follows: € 1,376 was paid in April 2025 (actual cost of $ 1,564 ), € 1,835 was paid in May 2026 (actual cost of $ 2,156 ) and € 1,376 to be paid in the first quarter of fiscal 2028 (approximately $ 1,575 based on July 7, 2026 exchange rates). These advanced funds are to be used to help fund the purchase and installation, by ArianeGroup SAS, of additional manufacturing equipment for ArianeGroup SAS’ production of C2®B product. Under the agreement, the Company commits to purchase C2®B product through December 2033 at an estimated cost of € 36,000 . As of May 31, 2026, the unamortized balance of amounts previously advanced was approximately $ 3,749 and was included in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. 12. OPERATING SEGMENT The Company operates in a single segment. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses the performance of this reportable segment and allocates resources on a consolidated basis using the entity-wide revenues and expense information reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The primary measure of segment profit is consolidated net income as reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, segment assets reviewed by the CODM are reported on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets. 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENT In July 2026, the Company entered into a sublease agreement covering approximately 18 acres of land in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Company plans to build a new composites material manufacturing and development facility on the site. The facility will include full production lab facilities, office space, storage and freezer space and ancillary equipment necessary to support all planned manufacturing operations. The sublease commences on September 1, 2026 and has an initial term of 25 years with a renewal option for an additional 25 years. Annual rent under the sublease agreement for the initial five years of the sublease would be $ 269,469 with increases for each subsequent five-year period based upon the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, U.S,, City Average All Items as published by the United States Department of Commerce. The Company expects economic development incentives to offset a significant portion of rent expense. 15
