Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders' equity and cash flows at December 29, 2024, and for all periods presented, have been made. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 (fiscal 2024). The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 29, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be attained for the entire fiscal year ending June 29, 2025 (fiscal 2025).
Liquidity
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, management considers whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance date of its financial statements. Based on the Company's current cash flow projections, the Company has concluded that the entity will be able to meet its obligations as they become due during that period.
