Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), has evaluated the effectiveness of our 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”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’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, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. 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. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 27, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the previously reported material weakness described below.

Previously Reported Material Weakness

As previously disclosed in “Part II. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 27, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level because of the existence of a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As of June 27, 2026, the Company did not effectively design procedures and controls over the timing of the recognition of cost of revenue. This resulted in timing discrepancies in the recognition of cost of revenue during the year ended September 27, 2025. Given that we recognize revenue on a percentage of completion basis, this also resulted in timing discrepancies in the recognition of revenue during the year ended September 27, 2025. These deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting constituted a material weakness as of June 27, 2026.

Notwithstanding the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations and our cash flows for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in conformity with U.S. GAAP. There can be no assurance that this material weakness will not result in a misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements for future periods that would not be prevented or detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Subject to the steps taken in connection with the remediation plan noted below, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the three months ended June 27, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Material Weakness Remediation Plan

Management has developed a remediation plan, which it began implementing during fiscal year 2025, that includes the following elements:

redesign of the operational processes and evidence requirements for the receipt of goods and services, with a focus on data around documenting the timing of the receipt of goods and services;

implementing additional compensating controls over the timing of the receipt of goods and services, with a continued focus on milestone related expenses;

training of the employees of the organization receiving goods and services; and

implementing a long term ERP system solution to manage vendors which will automate certain aspects of goods and services receipts in fiscal year 2027.

We completed the implementation of additional compensating controls over the timing of the receipt of goods and services during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2025. Management is committed to the completion of the remediation of this material weakness and expects to successfully implement enhanced control processes. However, as management continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, it may determine that additional measures to address control deficiencies or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary. Therefore, management cannot assure you when this material weakness will be remediated, that additional actions will not be required to remediate this material weakness, or the costs of any such additional actions. This material weakness will not be considered remediated until the remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through further testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
