(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. We acquired Palette on October 10, 2023. Consistent with the guidance provided by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, management has excluded Palette from its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. The net revenues attributable to Palette from the date of acquisition through December 31, 2023, represent, in the aggregate, less than 1% of our consolidated net revenues for the year then ended, and the total assets (excluding goodwill and intangible assets) attributable to Palette represent, in the aggregate, 1% of our consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2023.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management’s report on internal control over financial reporting is set forth on page F-2 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

(c) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. In connection with our acquisition of Palette, we are in the process of evaluating the acquired company's internal controls to determine the extent to which modifications to Palette's internal controls would be appropriate.
