Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of such period because of the material weaknesses in internal controls previously reported in our 2025 Form 10-K.
(b) Remediation of Previously Reported Material Weaknesses.
Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses
We, with the oversight of the Audit Committee, continue to make progress on our remediation plans for the material weaknesses identified in prior years. For the previously identified material weaknesses that remain, we continue to implement the remediation plans as follows:
Designing and implementing certain information technology general controls (“ITGCs”) for business systems related to our financial reporting processes, and ensuring they are operating effectively to support process-level automated and manual control activities that are dependent upon information derived from IT systems.
Enhancing the design of existing control activities including implementation of additional process-level control activities (including controls over revenue and related accounts, income taxes and other financial reporting processes) and ensuring they are properly evidenced and operating effectively.
Augmenting the internal control capabilities of the Company’s personnel including defining clear responsibilities and accountability, and engaging third-party experts to assist in training personnel regarding control design and execution.
Enhancing our risk assessment process and ensuring that controls are or will be implemented to mitigate identified risks, and monitoring the execution of internal control over financial reporting.
The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We believe the measures described above will remediate the identified control deficiencies and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to review, optimize, and enhance our financial reporting controls and procedures.
The process of designing and implementing an effective financial reporting system is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments, and to expend resources to maintain a financial reporting system that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations. As we continue to evaluate and take actions to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional actions to address control deficiencies or to modify the remediation measures described above.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During the quarter, we made progress against our remediation work plan including the following changes:
Designed and implemented additional procedures and controls related to income taxes, information technology general controls, and other financial reporting processes, with operation and testing underway for many of the new controls and procedures.
Designed additional procedures and controls related to revenue and related accounts.
Increased the level of resources (including external consultants with controls expertise) to support the Company in its design, implementation, operation and testing of controls in accordance with our remediation plan.
Continued to strengthen our internal control governance by expanding Audit Committee oversight, which includes additional meetings and regular updates focused on the execution of our remediation plan.
Hired a new Chief Legal Officer and a Corporate Controller in August 2026, both bringing extensive experience in governance and internal controls.
Except as described above, there have been no changes during the third quarter of 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
In addition, effective November 2, 2026, we have added an additional Board member with financial expertise to the Board of Directors and to the Audit Committee.
