The information presented herein includes the thirteen-week period ended September 28, 2024 (“Third Quarter”) as compared to the thirteen-week period ended September 30, 2023 (“Prior Year Quarter”), and the thirty-nine week period ended September 28, 2024 ("Year To Date Period") as compared to the thirty-nine week period ended September 30, 2023 ("Prior Year YTD Period"). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 28, 2024, and the results of operations for the Third Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period and Prior Year YTD Period. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023, as amended (the “2023 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the Third Quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. We base our estimates on the information available at the time and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has not made any changes in its significant accounting policies from those disclosed in the 2023 Form 10-K.

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"), 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2023-09 in the first quarter of 2025 on a prospective basis and expects the adoption of the updated guidance to result in the additional disaggregation of certain tax information within the Company's income tax footnote disclosure.

In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280), to improve reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this update will require public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Company's chief operating decision maker and included within segment profit and loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and expanded interim disclosures. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASU should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements.

In October 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"). The amendments in ASU 2023-06 modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification"), with the intention of clarifying or improving them and to align the requirements in the Codification with the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The effective date for ASU 2023-06 varies and is determined for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC's removal of the related disclosure. ASU 2023-06 will not have an impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
