Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on the evaluation performed as of December 31, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer determined that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.
Inherent Limitations over Internal Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud due to inherent limitations of internal controls. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Management's Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
ICFR is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Because of its inherent limitations, ICFR may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions or that compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 using the criteria established in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).
Based on this assessment, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.
Our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included in Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules under the heading, “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.”
Previously Identified Material Weakness
In connection with the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, management identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting regarding the application of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”),as it relates to certain reimbursements received from its customers for expenses incurred in servicing customer contracts.During 2025, the Company implemented remediation procedures, including enhancements to review and approval procedures for revenue recognition and implementation of additional validation controls within the voyage accounting system, strengthening supervisory review processes to ensure revenue transactions are properly classified in compliance with ASC 606 and implementing controls to align general ledger account mapping with the presentation of amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Management tested these controls and concluded they were operating effectively as of December 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During 2025, the Company implemented remediation measures described above to address the material weakness previously identified.
Other than these remediation activities there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
