Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Management notes that while they expect final results to fall within the estimated ranges, there is a possibility that final results will differ. The estimates are subject to change as the independent registered public accounting firm has not yet completed its review of the fourth-quarter results. These figures are not a comprehensive statement of financial results.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final audited revenue figures once the independent accounting firm completes its review.
- Confirm the exact cash balance as of December 31, 2018, in the final 10-K filing.
- Review the full pro forma adjustments to understand the impact of the Wholesale, Inc. and Wholesale Express, LLC acquisitions on the reported revenue.
- Check for any subsequent material events or restatements in future filings.
