Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as “controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.” The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is accumulated and communicated to its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of that date, due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified within the Annual Report and described below.

Notwithstanding, after giving full consideration to this material weakness, and the additional analyses and other procedures that were performed to ensure that the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were prepared in accordance with GAAP, management has concluded that our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with GAAP.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As previously disclosed in Part II, Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as of that date, the Company did not design and maintain effective controls and identified a material weakness in the control environment and a material weakness resulting from the aggregation of deficiencies in control activities.

Control Environment

As of June 30, 2025, Management has concluded that the Company did not maintain an effective control environment based on the criteria established in the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) Framework, and its relevant components, which resulted in deficiencies that constituted a material weakness. The Company determined that it did not maintain a sufficient complement of qualified personnel to perform control activities. This contributed to the Company’s failure to: (i) design and implement certain risk-mitigating internal controls; and (ii) consistently operate the Company’s internal controls. The control environment material weakness contributed to a material weakness within our system of internal control over financial reporting in the Control Activities component of the COSO Framework.

Control Activities

The Company did not maintain effective control activities based on the criteria established in the COSO Framework. The Company identified control deficiencies as of June 30, 2025 that constitute a material weakness from the lack of effectively designed and implemented controls related to revenue recognition, including the review of contracts upon inception and/or acquisition and the accounting for revenue recognition under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Remediation Actions and Status

A material weakness cannot be considered remediated until the applicable internal controls have been designed, implemented, have operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that those controls are operating effectively over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles.

2025 Remediation Plan

The Company is committed to supporting a strong culture of internal controls and designing, implementing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting to maintain a strong internal control environment. In order to strengthen our culture of internal controls and remediate the material weakness related to revenue accounting, management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee, has taken the following action steps and continues to implement a comprehensive remediation plan.

The Company’s comprehensive remediation plan includes the following:

The Company developed and presented a training program educating control owners concerning financial statement risk and principles of the Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by COSO, and continues to invest in additional training opportunities related to the COSO Framework;

The Company created an internal control department specifically focused on oversight of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting through the establishment of structures, reporting lines, and appropriate authorities and responsibilities for professionals within the Company;

The Company is designing and implementing controls related to billing and revenue recognition of its revenue contracts, in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This includes a combination of manual and automated controls as the Company has increased and is continuing to increase the use of automated controls to help mitigate the risk associated with manual intervention and human error.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company continues to make significant progress hiring qualified personnel with specialized skill sets to further bolster the Company’s ability to provide an appropriate level of oversight activities related to internal control over financial reporting. These personnel have significantly contributed to the remediation efforts related to previously disclosed material weaknesses in control activities.

Management believes that the Company is making significant progress toward achieving effectiveness of its internal controls and disclosure controls and that, in many cases, the Company is making significant progress regarding the testing and evaluation of the operating effectiveness of controls related to the identified, unremediated material weakness. However, as the Company continues to evaluate and work to remediate the control deficiencies that resulted in a material weakness related to revenue recognition, the Company may determine that additional measures or time are required to address the issues fully, or that the Company will need to modify or otherwise adjust the remedial actions described above.

The actions that Management is taking are subject to ongoing Management review, as well as Audit Committee oversight. Management will continue to assess the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and take steps to remediate the known material weakness expeditiously.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
