Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the previously reported material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is described in Part II, Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures”of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Material Weakness

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our condensed consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As disclosed in Item 9A of the Form 10-K, management identified a material weakness in the operation of its controls over the deferred income tax accounting for complex and non-routine transactions. Specifically, management did not have adequate supervision and review controls over the complex accounting for deferred income tax on the exchange of our outstanding 0.375% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 and the issuance of 1.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, including work performed by external advisors and the internal review of such transaction and related analysis. Based on this material weakness, the Company’s management concluded that as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

Ongoing Remediation Efforts to Address the Previously Identified Material Weakness

As previously disclosed in the Form 10-K, management is implementing remedial actions under the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors to address the identified deficiencies. On highly-technical, non-routine and complex accounting transactions, the Company will continue to engage nationally recognized third-party advisors with the requisite skills and technical expertise to assist in assessing, performing and reviewing such transactions. However, management is implementing improvements in identifying and selecting qualified third-party advisors; a process to verify controls, processes and internal reviews performed by the third-party advisors; a process to consider whether the non-routine transaction warrants additional advisor oversight; and a plan to increase education for internal resources on complex transactions.

As the Company continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to strengthen controls or to modify the remediation plan described above. When fully implemented and operational, the Company believes the controls they designed or plan to design will remediate the control deficiencies that have led to the material weakness that were identified. The previously identified material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

Changes in Internal Control

In connection with our initiative to integrate and enhance our global information technology systems and business processes, we continued the phased implementation of a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. The Company is implementing the ERP system in phases through 2024. The implementation of the ERP system is expected to, among other things, automate a number of accounting and reporting processes and activities, thereby decreasing the amount of manual processes previously required. As a result of this implementation, we modified certain existing internal controls over financial reporting as well as implemented new controls and procedures related to the new ERP systems.

Other than the foregoing, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that occurred in the three months ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
