Previous wording

We expect consumer sentiment to remain volatile as the broad-based tariffs imposed by the U.S. government, and threatened or imposed retaliatory measures by other countries, have increased macroeconomic uncertainty in global markets and we are actively monitoring the changes in shifting trade policies and related market disruptions. We believe our vertically integrated, predominantly U.S. based supply chain positions us well to compete in the current environment and to absorb the impacts of tariffs at the existing levels in the current year. We also believe we have the ability to further mitigate these costs over time through strategic sourcing, operational efficiencies, and other targeted initiatives. Continued changes in trade policies and disruptions could have substantial impacts on the global economy and may magnify the impact of the risks to our business described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Liquidity, or access to cash, is an important factor in determining our financial stability. We are committed to maintaining adequate liquidity. Cash generated from our operating activities provides the primary resources to support current operations, growth initiatives, seasonal funding requirements, future common stock and debt repurchases, and capital expenditures. Our cash provided from operations is impacted by our net income and working capital changes. Our net income is impacted by, among other things, sales volume, seasonal sales patterns, success of new product introductions and product and market expansions, profit margins, income taxes and inflationary pressures. Typically, our sales are highest during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns. Generally, our need for working capital peaks during the summer and fall months as inventory builds in anticipation of the holiday period. Our cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries were $123 million as of August 2, 2025.
