Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: The company’s management, with the participation of the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Controls: During our third quarter of 2024, we migrated certain financial processing systems as part of our enterprise resource planning (ERP) replacement program. This migration included financial processing systems related to management of customer and vendor master data, accounts receivable cash application, indirect procurement and certain processes in accounts payable, and fixed assets, as well as our general ledger for our U.S. operations. We expect future migration of additional financial processing systems throughout our U.S. business as we complete the U.S. portion of the ERP replacement program through 2027. Except for the migration of certain financial processing systems, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13-a-15(f) that occurred during our latest fiscal quarter, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
