Refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Annual Report for a detailed description of our significant risk factors. Other than the risk factor disclosed in this Item 1A below, there have been no significant changes to these risk factors during the first three quarters of fiscal 2026. Adverse resolution of litigation may harm our operating results or financial condition. We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business domestically and internationally. Any litigation can be costly, lengthy, and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. An unfavorable resolution of lawsuits could materially harm our business, operating results, or financial condition. On December 20, 2024, our previous Landlord filed a lawsuit alleging breach of lease for failure to perform certain equipment repairs and replacements. While we believe that the premises and associated equipment remain in sound operating condition, and that no such repair is warranted or needed and we intend to respond to all claims vigorously, we cannot predict with certainty the outcome of current or future legal proceedings. The outcome of legal proceedings, whether or not meritorious, is inherently uncertain. Defending against claims requires significant management attention and financial resources. We may incur costs through defense expenses, settlements, or adverse judgments. These proceedings could materially harm our business operations, financial results and condition, management focus and resources, and reputation and brand value. The costs and distractions of litigation, particularly if claims increase in scope or number, could materially impact our business success and shareholder value. 30 Table of Contents
