Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This Annual Report on Form 10-K, in particular Part II Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements represent our expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies concerning future events, including, but not limited to, any statements regarding our assumptions about financial performance and future outlook; the continuation of historical trends; the sufficiency of our cash balances for future liquidity and capital resource needs; the expected impact of changes in accounting policies on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows; anticipated problems and our plans for future operations, including expected growth, the new marketing services business, and the economy in general or the future of the beauty and hair care industry and the hearing protection and ear bud business, all of which are subject to various risks and uncertainties.

There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ, potentially materially, from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, many of which are outside of our control. They include: the impact of unstable market and general economic conditions on our business, financial condition and stock price, including inflationary cost pressures, the impact of tariffs and other trade restrictions and barriers, interest rate changes, unemployment rates, decreased discretionary consumer spending, supply chain disruptions and constraints, labor shortages, ongoing economic disruption, the possibility of an economic recession and other macroeconomic factors, geopolitical events and uncertainty, including the effects of the Ukraine-Russia conflict and conflicts in the Middle East, and other downturns in the business cycle or the economy; our financial performance and liquidity, including our ability to successfully generate sufficient revenue to support our operations; guidance provided by management, which may differ from our actual operating results; continued uncertainty with respect to U.S. trade policies and tariffs; our expectations regarding our financing arrangements and our ability to obtain additional capital if and as needed, including potential difficulties of obtaining financing due to market conditions resulting from geopolitical conditions and other economic factors; risks related to our operations and international markets, such as fluctuations in currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers and sanctions, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations, including those related to sustainability; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; continuity and security of information technology infrastructure and the potential impact of cybersecurity breaches or disruptions to our management information systems; widespread outages, interruptions or other failures of operational, communication, and other systems; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees and the potential impact of labor shortages; demands on management resources; availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products, including the impacts of inflationary cost pressures, tariffs, and ongoing supply chain disruptions and constraints, which have been, and may continue to be, exacerbated by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the conflicts in the Middle East, and other geopolitical conflicts; additional tax expenses or exposures; product liability claims; the potential outcome of any legal or regulatory proceedings, including ongoing litigation, the disposition of which may have an adverse effect upon our business, financial condition, or results of operations; our ability to engage in acquisitions, investments, partnerships, strategic alliances or dispositions when desired; global or regional catastrophic events, including the effects of natural disasters, which may be worsened by the impact of climate change; effectiveness of our marketing strategy, demand for and market acceptance of our products, as well as our ability to successfully anticipate consumer trends and to realize anticipated benefits from our efforts to expand into new geographic markets and product lines and into offline sales, as well as our expansion into marketing services; labor relations; the potential impact of sustainability matters; implementation of environmental remediation matters; our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; and risks related to our common stock, including our ability to maintain our stock exchange listing.
