Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2024, based on the ongoing remediation of material weaknesses identified in the 2023 Form 10-K. The material weaknesses existing in our internal control over financial reporting relate to:
As previously disclosed, there was an insufficient number of accounting resources to facilitate an effective control environment following the integration of the RideNow business and incorporation of the acquired business into the Company’s control environment. Consequently, the Company did not effectively operate process-level control activities related to elimination of intercompany transactions; review and approval of account reconciliations, payroll, and journal entries; review and approval of accounting estimates; and execution and documentation of management review controls, including but not limited to evaluating debt covenants, and assumptions included in the Company’s annual indefinite-lived impairment assessment.
In the areas of user access and segregation of duties related to certain information technology systems that support the Company’s financial reporting processes, resulting in ineffective journal entry and other manual controls.
As set forth below, management has taken and will continue to take steps to remediate the identified material weakness. Notwithstanding the material weakness, we have performed additional analyses and procedures to enable management to conclude that our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q fairly present in all material respects our financial condition and results of operations as of and for the periods presented.
Management’s Remediation Plan
In response to the material weakness discussed above, we plan to continue efforts already underway to remediate internal control over financial reporting, which include the following:
We are committed to hiring additional accounting resources with the required technical expertise and clearly defined roles & responsibilities;
We continue to evaluate system enhancements to automate the consolidation and elimination of intercompany transactions;
We continue to enhance the overall review and approval process relating to elimination of intercompany transaction;
We continue to enhance the review and approval controls related to reconciling certain accruals and accounting estimates and assumptions;
We are in the process of conducting additional training on the Company's document retention policies;
We are enhancing our processes around reviewing privileged access to key financial systems and ensuring appropriate segregation of duties; and
We continue to enhance governance and reporting over the execution of these remediation action items, including expansion of mitigating controls where appropriate.
Management and our Audit Committee will monitor these specific remedial measures and the effectiveness of our overall control environment. A material weakness will not be considered remediated, however, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We can provide no assurance as to when the remediation of these material weaknesses will be completed to provide for an effective control environment.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints that require management to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
