Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e), were effective at a reasonable assurance level in ensuring (i) that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Remediation of Previously Disclosed Material Weaknesses
As noted in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2024 Annual Report”), management identified a material weakness within our system of internal control over financial reporting due to our SAP S/4HANA ERP system not being designed for and not maintaining effective controls to ensure that all manual journal entries consistently enforced segregation of duties in the approval process prior to being posted to the general ledger system. Remediation of this material weakness was completed during the three months ended December 31, 2024, and included establishing new controls and procedures to ensure segregation of duties is maintained between the creation, posting and approval of manual journal entries. As of December 31, 2024, these control activities have been appropriately designed and implemented, and have operated effectively for a sufficient period of time to conclude that the previously identified material weakness has been remediated.
Also as noted in our 2024 Annual Report, management identified a second material weakness within our system of internal control over financial reporting due to our SAP S/4HANA ERP system not being designed for and not maintaining effective controls to ensure the existence of inventory at the Madison manufacturing warehouse locations because its controls relied on a cycle count program that, due to initial limitations associated with certain ERP system reports, was not sufficiently precise. Remediation of this material weakness was completed as of March 31, 2025, which included establishing new controls with configured ERP system reports to allow for full capture of inventory with proper count timing required for an effective cycle count program, inclusive of reinforcement for proper cycle count process through policy statements, regular communications and periodic reviews and meetings with managers and staff. As of March 31, 2025, these control activities have been appropriately designed and implemented, and have operated effectively for a sufficient period of time to conclude that the previously identified material weakness has been remediated.
Furthermore, the remediation of the two material weaknesses associated with the aforementioned control activities resulted from the remediation of the deficiency in the risk assessment component of the COSO framework disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report, which we remediated by performing a comprehensive risk analysis of the affected areas and implemented control activities that effectively managed the risks.
Management has concluded that the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and has concluded that other than the changes described above under "Remediation of Previously Disclosed Material Weaknesses" there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. These inherent limitations, however, are known features of the financial reporting process, therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
