Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our Risk Factors are discussed fully in Part I Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and incorporated herein by reference. In addition, we have identified the following additional risk factors:
Recent Changes to U.S. Tariff Rates. The manufacturing of our products is primarily outsourced to third parties across multiple countries, most notably China. In March and April 2025, the U.S. increased tariff rates on imported goods from numerous countries, including China. On April 9, the U.S. temporarily delayed implementation of those new tariffs by 90 days, resulting in a 10% tariff for most countries, but these delays excluded products imported from China. At the conclusion of that 90-day period, tariffs on products imported from those countries may again increase significantly. We continue to focus on opportunities to mitigate negative impacts and increase efficiencies and scale within our supply chain. However, significant increases in tariff rates, particularly for products imported mainly from China, would substantially increase our cost for those products. These increases may likely force the Company to increase our prices to customers for those products to maintain profitability, which could in turn lead to a decrease in our sales. Even if we are able to avoid raising the prices of our own products, the macro-economic inflationary impact from tariffs of substantially higher prices on other products sold in this country could also harm our sales by reducing our customers’ ability to make discretionary purchases of items such as our products. The global tariff environment is changing rapidly, and we cannot be assured that we will not be materially negatively impacted by these changes.
Increased Expenses from Renting Headquarters Facilities and Flagship Store. Until January 2025, the Company owned the buildings housing its principal offices, distribution center and flagship retail store in Fort Worth, Texas. Since closing the sale of those buildings in January 2025, the Company has leased its current spaces, and we plan to relocate our facilities to new rented spaces during the second half of 2025. Excluding buildout, furniture, equipment and other costs associated with the move itself, the Company expects to pay initial combined rent for new headquarters and flagship store facilities in excess of $1.5 million per year (increasing annually beginning in 2026). If the Company is unable to generate additional sales and profits to offset these added expenses, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operations.
