Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of our Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures of the Company as of December 31, 2023. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2023.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-K, our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. In making that assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (“2013 framework”). Based on management’s assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2023, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
The independent registered public accounting firm’s attestation reports regarding the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is included in the 2023 financial statements under the caption entitled Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and is incorporated herein by reference.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 identified in connection with the evaluation of their disclosure controls and procedures described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
