Previous wording

Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2026 and three and nine months ended December 27, 2024, differs from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state taxes, changes in unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties, foreign exchange impacts, increases in valuation allowances, and the U.S. taxation on foreign earnings.

Previous wording

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and many countries have proposed to reallocate a portion of profits of large multinational enterprises (MNE) with an annual global turnover exceeding €20 billion to markets where sales arise (Pillar One), as well as enact a global minimum tax rate of at least 15% for MNE with an annual global turnover exceeding €750 million (Pillar Two). On December 12, 2022, the European Union reached an agreement to implement the Pillar Two directive of the OECD’s reform of international taxation at the European Union level. The agreement affirms that all Member States must transpose the Pillar Two directive by December 31, 2023. The rules were therefore applicable for fiscal years starting on or after December 31, 2023. Ireland, Czech Republic, and certain jurisdictions in which we operate have enacted legislation to implement Pillar Two and other countries are actively considering changes to their tax laws to adopt certain parts of the OECD’s proposals. The enactment of Pillar Two legislation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our effective tax rate and Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the near term. Moreover, in June 2025, the G7 agreed to exclude United States MNEs from certain aspects of the Pillar Two global minimum tax rules (the G7 Statement) in exchange for the United States not imposing retaliatory taxes in the Act. We will continue to monitor and reflect the impact of such legislative changes, including the G7 Statement, which has not yet been incorporated into the OECD framework, in future Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as appropriate.

Previous wording

Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, amounts available under our Revolving Facility and our future refinancing plans related to our upcoming maturities, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs, support on-going business activities and finance the expected synergy costs related to the acquisition of MoneyLion through at least the next 12 months and to meet our known long-term contractual obligations. We are currently not aware of any trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way that will impact our capital needs during or beyond the next 12 months. However, our future liquidity and capital requirements may vary materially from those as of January 2, 2026, depending on several factors, including, but not limited to, economic conditions; political climate; the expansion of sales and marketing activities; the costs to acquire or invest in businesses; outcome of income tax audits with relevant tax authorities; resolution of legal proceedings, including, but not limited to, regulatory proceedings, claims, mediations, arbitrations and litigation; and the risks and uncertainties discussed in “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A below.

Previous wording

Our principal commitments consist of principal and interest payments related to our debt instruments, obligations under our purchase agreements, obligations under various non-cancellable leases and potential other legal contingencies.
