## Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 25,756 characters.

### General:

Park Aerospace Corp. (“Park” or the “Company”) develops and manufactures solution and hot-melt advanced composite materials used to produce composite structures for the global aerospace markets. Park’s advanced composite materials include film adhesives and lightning strike protection materials. Park offers an array of composite materials specifically designed for hand lay-up or automated fiber placement (“AFP”) manufacturing applications. Park’s advanced composite materials are used to produce primary and secondary structures for jet engines, large and regional transport aircraft, military aircraft, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (“UAV”s commonly referred to as “drones”), business jets, general aviation aircraft and rotary wing aircraft. Park also offers specialty ablative materials for rocket motors and nozzles and specially designed materials for radome applications. As a complement to Park’s advanced composite materials offering, Park designs and fabricates composite parts, structures and assemblies and low volume tooling for the aerospace industry. Target markets for Park’s composite parts and structures (which include Park’s proprietary composite Sigma StrutTM and Alpha StrutTM product lines) are, among others, prototype and development aircraft, special mission aircraft, spares for legacy military and civilian aircraft and exotic spacecraft.

#### Financial Overview

On May 19, 2024, the Company’s manufacturing facilities in Newton, Kansas were damaged by a strong storm which transited the area. None of the Company’s manufacturing lines or equipment were damaged by the storm. The roofs on all three buildings in the Company’s Newton, Kansas campus required repairs or replacement. Also, multiple specialty HVAC units were damaged or destroyed. The Company recorded a charge of $1.1 million in the 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024 related to the damage and repair and downtime costs. There were no corresponding charges in the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025.

The Company's net sales in the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 were $16.4 million and $31.8 million, respectively, compared to $16.7 million and $30.7 million, respectively, in the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024. Net sales for the 13 weeks ended August 31, 2025 were marginally lower than in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year while net sales for the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 were higher than in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease for the 13 weeks period was due to lower sales to military markets. Sales in the 13 weeks ended September 1, 2024 were positively impacted by shipments that were delayed in the 13 weeks ended June 2, 2024 due to the storm damage that occurred late in that period. The increase in sales for the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 was due to higher sales to commercial markets offset by lower sales in the business aircraft market.

The Company’s gross profit in the 13 weeks ended August 31, 2025 was higher than the gross profit in the prior year’s comparable period despite lower sales levels in the 13 weeks ended August 31, 2025 compared to the prior year’s comparable period. This was due to a more favorable product mix partially offset by higher overhead costs including costs related to bring up new manufacturing lines to ramp up capacity in preparation for increases in customer program volumes as well as higher freight costs. The Company’s gross profit in the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 was higher than the gross profit in the prior year’s comparable period due to slightly higher sales levels and a more favorable sales mix partially offset by the higher costs noted above.

The Company’s gross profit margins, measured as percentages of sales, were 31.2% and 30.9%, respectively, in the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025, compared to 28.5% and 28.9%, respectively, in the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024. The higher gross profit margins for the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 compared to the prior year’s comparable periods were primarily due to a more favorable sales mix as well as sales price increases and lower waste in the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 partially offset by the increased overhead costs noted above.

The Company’s earnings before income taxes and net earnings increased 14.9% and 16.4%, respectively, in the 13 weeks ended August 31, 2025, compared to the 13 weeks ended September 1, 2024, primarily as a result of higher gross profit margins mentioned above and higher interest and other income partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative costs, including higher salaries and fringe benefits, travel expenses, and professional fees.

The Company’s earnings before income taxes and net earnings increased 43.6% and 46.6%, respectively, in the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025, compared to the 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024, primarily due to the higher gross profit margins mentioned above, the charges incurred in the prior year related to the storm damage and higher interest and other income partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

The Company continues to experience inflation in costs of raw materials and supplies, freight costs and other costs and expenses. The impact of inflation on the Company’s profits has been largely mitigated by the Company’s ability to adjust pricing for a large portion of its sales to pass the impact of inflation through to its customers.

Programs in which the Company participates as a supplier are, in some cases, experiencing supply chain issues from other suppliers to the programs that could result in delays in production for certain customers of the Company. The Company’s sales may be impacted by these supply chain challenges that its customers are experiencing from other suppliers.

The Company has a number of long-term contracts pursuant to which certain of its customers, some of which represent a substantial portion of the Company’s revenue, place orders. Long-term contracts with the Company’s customers are primarily requirements-based and do not guarantee quantities. An order forecast is generally agreed concurrently with pricing for any applicable long-term contract. This order forecast is then typically updated periodically during the term of the contract. Purchase orders are generally received by the Company more than three months in advance of delivery.

Under a Business Partner Agreement with ArianeGroup SAS of Les Mureaux, France, Park is the exclusive North American distributor of ArianeGroup’s RAYCARB C2®B NG proprietary product. RAYCARB C2®B NG is used to produce ablative composite materials for critical rocket and missile systems. Park is a long-term customer of ArianeGroup and uses ArianeGroup’s RAYCARB C2®B NG product in the production of many of Park’s key ablative materials, which Park supplies into critical rocket and missile programs. On March 27, 2025, Park and ArianeGroup entered into an agreement under which Park would advance funds to ArianeGroup against future purchases of C2®B product in the total amount in Euros of €4,587,000 payable in three installments in 2025, 2026, and 2027. These advanced funds are to be used to help fund the purchase and installation, by ArianeGroup, of additional manufacturing equipment for ArianeGroup’s production of C2®B product.

#### Cash and Marketable Securities

Of the $61.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities at August 31, 2025, $31.7 million was owned by one of the Company’s wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries.

The change in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 was the result of capital expenditures, the purchase of treasury shares, dividends paid to shareholders, the Company’s transition tax installment payment, and a number of additional factors. The significant changes in cash (used in) provided by operating activities was as follows:

- accounts receivable decreased by 2% at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 primarily due to lower sales in the 13 weeks ended August 31, 2025 than in the comparable period in the prior year;
- inventories increased by 12% at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 primarily due to timing of raw materials purchases;
- prepaid and other current assets decreased by 25% at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 primarily due to lower prepaid tax balances;
- other assets increased $1.6 million during the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025 due to a long-term supplier advance paid during the quarter;
- accounts payable increased by 32% at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 primarily due to timing of vendor payments;
- accrued liabilities decreased by 5% at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 primarily due to decreases in bonus, profit sharing and property tax accruals; and
- income taxes payable decreased by 98% at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 due to the payment of a $4.9 million transition tax installment payment in June 2025.

In addition, the Company paid $5.0 million in cash dividends in the 26-week period ended August 31, 2025 compared to $5.1 million in the 26-week period ended September 1, 2024. During the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025, the Company repurchased shares of $2.2 million compared to $1.9 million of repurchases in the 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024.

#### Working Capital

The decrease in working capital at August 31, 2025 compared to March 2, 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in cash as a result of the payment of the long-term supplier advance of $1.6 million, treasury share repurchases of $2.2 million and the payment of $5.0 million of dividends.

The Company's current ratio (the ratio of current assets to current liabilities) was 17.6 to 1.0 at August 31, 2025, compared to 9.7 to 1.0 at March 2, 2025.

#### Cash Flows

During the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025, the Company's net earnings, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation, amortization of bond premium, provision for credit losses, loss on sale of marketable securities and changes in operating assets and liabilities, resulted in a $0.5 million operating cash outflow compared to a cash inflow of $1.0 million for the 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024. The decrease was driven by the payment of a $1.6 million long-term supplier advance during the 26 weeks ended August 31, 2025. During the same 26-week period, the Company expended $664,000 for the purchase of property, plant and equipment compared with $206,000 during the 26 weeks ended September 1, 2024. The Company paid $5.0 million in cash dividends in the 26-week period ended August 31, 2025 compared to $5.1 million in the 26-week period ended September 1, 2024. The Company purchased treasury shares of $2.2 million in the 26-week period ended August 31, 2025 compared to $1.9 million in the 26-week period ended September 1, 2024.

#### Other Liquidity Factors

The Company believes its financial resources will be sufficient, through the 12 months following the filing of this Form 10-Q Quarterly Report and for the foreseeable future thereafter, to provide for continued investment in working capital and property, plant and equipment and for general corporate purposes. The Company’s financial resources are also available for purchases of the Company's common stock, cash dividend payments, and appropriate acquisitions and other expansions of the Company's business.

The Company is not aware of any circumstances or events that are reasonably likely to occur that could materially affect its liquidity. The Company further believes its balance sheet and financial position to be very strong.

### Contractual Obligations:

The Company’s contractual obligations and other commercial commitments to make future payments under contracts, such as lease agreements, consist only of (i) operating lease commitments and (ii) commitments to purchase raw materials. In March 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with a supplier, ArianeGroup SAS, under which the Company would advance funds against future purchases. The agreement requires payments of €4,587 over three years, of which €1,376 was paid in April 2025 (actual cost of $1,564), €1,835 (approximately $2,149 based on October 7, 2025 exchange rates) is due in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 and €1,376 (approximately $1,611 based on October 7, 2025 exchange rates) is due in the first quarter of fiscal 2028.

### Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:

The Company’s liquidity is not dependent on the use of, and the Company is not engaged in, any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, such as securitization of receivables or obtaining access to assets through special purpose entities.

### Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

The foregoing Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires the Company to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to sales allowances, allowances for credit losses, inventories, valuation of long-lived assets, income taxes, contingencies and litigation, and employee benefit programs. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company’s critical accounting policies that are important to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and that entail, to a significant extent, the use of estimates and assumptions and the application of management’s judgment are described in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 2, 2025. There have been no significant changes to such accounting policies during the 2026 fiscal year second quarter.

### Contingencies:

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.
