The filing incorporates by reference a press release (Exhibit 99.1) and an investor presentation (Exhibit 99.2) containing detailed operational and financial data.
Key Financial Metrics
The filing text does not provide specific numerical values for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. The document serves as a notification that these results are available in the attached exhibits. The Company reports the following non-GAAP measures in the referenced materials:
- Adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit
- Adjusted net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per diluted share
- EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The Company provides non-GAAP guidance for fiscal year 2026 regarding adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. However, the filing explicitly states that a reconciliation of these non-GAAP guidance measures to the most comparable GAAP measure (net income) is not provided due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain expenses and gains without unreasonable effort. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP results and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Examine Exhibit 99.2 (Investor Presentation) for detailed non-GAAP reconciliations to GAAP measures.
