ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we may be involved in legal proceedings, the outcomes of which may not be determinable. The results of litigation are inherently unpredictable. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of management time and result in diversion of significant resources. We are not able to estimate an aggregate amount or range of reasonably possible losses for those legal matters for which losses are not probable and estimable. We have insurance policies covering potential losses where such coverage is cost effective.

Although the Company is not presently a party to any material legal proceedings, as described in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations – Overview - Utility Terrain Vehicles (UTVs)” the manufacturer of the Company’s Stag vehicle has threatened legal proceedings against the Company. In October 2024, the Company notified the manufacturer that the Company intended to terminate the manufacturing agreement between the parties due to breaches of the manufacturing agreement arising from significant costs increases over the original contracted cost, quality issues resulting in significant costs incurred by the Company for rework, manufacturing assistance required to be provided by the Company’s employees to program vehicles, significant delays in production and low production volumes. In response to the Company’s notice of termination, the manufacturer has indicated that it does not believe the assertions set forth in the Company’s notice are accurate and has asserted that it believes the Company lacks good cause to terminate the agreement. In addition, the manufacturer has asserted that it believes the Company has breached the manufacturing agreement and that the manufacturer intends to file a lawsuit claiming direct and consequential damages against the Company, including for lost profits, in an aggregate amount of $26.7 million. The Company intends to vigorously defend any claims brought by the manufacturer.
