This Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which statements are subject to considerable risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements included or incorporated by reference in this Report, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements also include the assumptions underlying or relating to such statements.

In particular, forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this Report relate to, among other things: general economic and business conditions; the impact of competitive products and pricing; success of operating initiatives; development and operating costs; advertising and promotional efforts; adverse publicity; acceptance of new product offerings; changes in business strategy or development plans; availability, terms and deployment of capital; availability of qualified personnel; commodity, labor, and employee benefit costs; supply chain constraints and resulting cost pressures; macroeconomic conditions, including the impact of inflation on our results of operations; changes in, or failure to comply with, government regulations; weather conditions; relationships with customers and suppliers.

Our forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current assumptions and expectations about future events and trends, which affect or may affect our business, strategy, operations or financial performance. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, they are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are made in light of information currently available to us. Our actual financial condition and results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in the section entitled Risk Factors beginning on page 6 of this Report. You should read this Report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and worse than what we expect.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made, and, except to the extent required by law or the Nasdaq listing rules, we undertake no obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement because of new information, future events or other factors.
