Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide current revenue, profit, cash flow, or debt figures for the reporting period. However, it references historical data regarding the Company's relationship with Walmart:

- Walmart Contribution (6 months ended Dec 31, 2024): Approximately 2% of Adjusted Operating Income.
Material Changes
