Read the current filing

The baseline is this issuer’s latest earlier reporting period of the same form that was filed before the current report. A previous 10-Q is a different quarter, not a year-over-year comparison. Amendments are excluded.

Compared 15 previous paragraphs and 17 current paragraphs.

8 unchanged; 6 reworded; 3 added; 1 removed; 0 previous and 0 current paragraphs rearranged.

Tables are not compared: 1 previous and 1 current tables excluded. Dates, whitespace, punctuation and numbering changes are ignored; changes to financial figures remain significant.

A changed paragraph is not evidence that risk increased or decreased. An unchanged paragraph does not establish that risk stayed the same.

The current filing states there were no material changes to risk factors.

This is the filer’s own statement, not a conclusion from the comparison. Read its qualifications and the report it references.

Current report

Unionization activities or labor disputes may disrupt our operations and affect our profitability.

Current report

Although none of our employees are currently covered under collective bargaining agreements, we have experienced union organizing activities in certain units in the Company. For example, recently we have experienced increased union organizing activities and most of these activities have been resolved favorably. In 2025, two groups of employees, impacting approximately 115 employees in aggregate, voted in favor of unionization. We cannot guarantee that certain of our employees will not elect to be represented by labor unions in the future. If some or all of our collective bargaining agreement terms are significantly different from our current compensation arrangements, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, a labor dispute involving some or all of our employees may disrupt our operations and reduce our revenues, and resolution of labor and employment-related disputes may increase our costs.

Current report

Although we maintain binding policies that require employees to submit to a mandatory alternative dispute resolution procedure in lieu of other remedies, as employers, we may be subject to various employment-related claims, such as individual or class actions or government enforcement actions relating to alleged employment discrimination, employee classification and related withholding, wage-hour, labor standards or healthcare and benefit issues. Such actions, if brought against us and successful in whole or in part, may affect our ability to compete or materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
