Garmin Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 27, 2026
(In thousands, except per share information)
1. Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Garmin Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, we, our, us, the Company or Garmin). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 27, 2025 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Additionally, the condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-Q, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025.
The Company's operating results are subject to fluctuations associated with seasonal demand for consumer products, the timing of new product introductions, and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customer production schedules. Therefore, operating results for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 27, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 26, 2026.
The Company’s fiscal year is based on a 52-week or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday of the calendar year. Therefore, the financial results of certain 53-week fiscal years, and the associated 14-week quarters, will not be exactly comparable to the prior and subsequent 52-week fiscal years and the associated 13-week quarters. The quarters ended June 27, 2026 and June 28, 2025 both contain operating results for 13 weeks.
Significant Accounting Policies
For a description of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
There are no recently adopted accounting standards that have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, processes, or systems.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), which requires additional disaggregated disclosures in the notes to financial statements for certain categories of expenses that are included in the expense captions on the face of the statements of income, on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied using either a prospective or retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.

2. Revenue
To further depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the Company's revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors, Garmin disaggregates revenue (or “net sales”) by geographic region, major product category, and pattern of recognition.
Disaggregated revenue by geographic region (Americas, EMEA, and APAC) is presented in Note 11 – Segment Information and Geographic Data. Note 11 also contains disaggregated revenue information of the five major product categories identified by the Company (fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM), which also represent the Company’s operating segments.
A large majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized on a point in time basis, usually once the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. Revenue recognized over time relates to performance obligations that are satisfied over the estimated life of the product or contractual service period and is primarily within the outdoor and aviation segments, and, to a lesser extent, within the auto OEM, fitness, and marine segments.

4. Marketable Securities
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The accounting guidance classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
|
Level 1 |
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for the identical asset or liability |
|
Level 2 |
Observable inputs for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability |
|
Level 3 |
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability |
The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation is based on prices obtained from an independent pricing vendor using both market and income approaches. The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, and credit spreads.
The method described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The primary objectives of the Company’s investment policy are to preserve capital, maintain an acceptable degree of liquidity, and maximize yield within the constraint of low credit risk. The fair value of securities varies from period to period due to changes in interest rates, the performance of the underlying collateral, and the credit performance of the underlying issuer, among other factors.

The Company recognizes impairments relating to credit losses of available-for-sale securities through an allowance for credit losses and other income (expense) on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. Impairment not relating to credit losses is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Approximately

Management of the Company currently does not believe it is reasonably possible that the Company may have incurred a material loss, or a material loss in excess of recorded accruals, with respect to loss contingencies in the aggregate, for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2026. The results of legal proceedings, investigations and claims, however, cannot be predicted with certainty. An adverse resolution of one or more of such matters in excess of management’s expectations could have a material adverse effect in the particular quarter or fiscal year in which a loss is recorded, but based on information currently known, the Company does not believe it is likely that losses from such matters would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

11. Segment Information and Geographic Data
Garmin is organized in the
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), uses operating income (loss) as the primary measure of profit or loss to assess segment performance. Operating income (loss) represents net sales less costs of goods sold and operating expenses. Net sales are directly attributed to each segment. Most costs of goods sold and the majority of operating expenses are also directly attributed to each segment, while certain other costs of goods sold and operating expenses are allocated to the segments in a reasonable manner considering the specific facts and circumstances of the costs or expenses being allocated. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 - Accounting Policies. There are no inter-segment sales or transfers.
The Company’s segments share many common resources, infrastructures and assets in the normal course of business, and certain assets are therefore not separately tracked by segment. Thus, the Company does not report accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, capital expenditures, depreciation expense, or amortization expense by segment to the CODM.
The CODM utilizes operating income (loss) to assess segment performance and make decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources by analyzing future opportunities and recent operating income (loss) results, trends, and variances of each segment in relation to forecasts and historical performance.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The discussion set forth below, as well as other portions of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, contain statements concerning potential future events. Such forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions by management, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including assumptions about risks and uncertainties faced by the Company. Readers can identify these forward-looking statements by their use of such words as "future", "expects", "anticipates", "believes", “estimates”, “would”, “could”, “can”, “may,” or other similar words or other comparable terms. If any of the Company’s assumptions prove incorrect or should unanticipated circumstances arise, actual results could materially differ from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. The differences could be caused by a number of factors or combination of factors including, but not limited to, those factors identified in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025. Readers are strongly encouraged to consider those factors when evaluating any forward-looking statement concerning the Company. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and the Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect future events or developments, except as required by law.
The information contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this document to "we", "us", "our", the "Company" and similar terms refer to Garmin Ltd. and its subsidiaries.
Unless otherwise indicated, amounts set forth in the discussion below are in thousands.
Company Overview
The Company is a leading worldwide provider of wireless devices, many of which feature location technology such as Global Positioning System (GPS), and applications that are designed for people who live an active lifestyle. Garmin is organized in the five operating segments of fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM, which represent the primary markets served by the Company. Garmin designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes a diverse family of GPS-enabled products and other navigation, communications, sensor-based and information products and services for these markets, as well as products installed by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and for aftermarket applications. Garmin products are sold through a variety of indirect distribution channels, including a large worldwide network of independent retailers, dealers, distributors, installation and repair shops, and OEMs. Garmin also sells its products and services directly through the Garmin online webshop (garmin.com), subscriptions for connected services, and Garmin retail stores.
Business Environment Update
Global economic and geopolitical conditions impact our operations and financial results, although we believe our vertically integrated and diversified business model enables us to be resilient and flexible in a dynamic business environment. Recent global supply constraints of memory chips have increased operational complexities and costs, which may unfavorably impact our future gross margin. Foreign currency fluctuations and rapidly changing global trade policies, particularly those affecting the United States (“U.S.”), increase the economic and operational uncertainties that could significantly impact our business and results of operations.
Refer to Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report for further discussion of the risks and uncertainties facing our Company.

Net sales (or “revenue”) increased 11% for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2026 when compared to the year-ago quarter. Total unit sales in the second quarter of 2026 increased by approximately 9% to 5,686 when compared to total unit sales of 5,203 in the second quarter of 2025, which differs from the percent increase in revenue primarily due to shifts in segment and product mix. Fitness was the largest portion of our revenue mix in the second quarter of 2026 at 37% compared to 33% in the second quarter of 2025.
The increase in fitness revenue was driven by growth across all product categories, led by strong demand for advanced wearables. The increase in aviation revenue was driven by growth in OEM and aftermarket product categories. The increase in marine revenue was driven by growth across multiple product categories. The increase in auto OEM revenue was primarily driven by growth in domain controllers. The outdoor revenue decrease was primarily due to declines in consumer auto and adventure watches.

Gross profit dollars in the second quarter of 2026 increased 18% when compared to the year-ago quarter primarily due to the increase in net sales as described above. Consolidated gross margin as a percent of net sales increased 360 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter with higher margins across all segments. The consolidated gross margin increase was primarily attributable to favorable product mix within certain segments and a favorable 100 basis point impact related to approximately $21 million in refunds of previously paid tariffs, of which approximately $14 million was attributable to marine.

The fitness and outdoor gross margin percentage increases of 330 basis points and 270 basis points, respectively, were primarily attributable to favorable product mix when compared to the year-ago quarter. The aviation gross margin percentage remained relatively flat with an 80 basis point increase when compared to the year-ago quarter. The marine gross margin percentage increase of 630 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter was primarily attributable to refunds of previously paid tariffs and favorable product mix. The auto OEM gross margin percentage increase of 560 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter was primarily attributable to year-to-date cost recoveries recognized as revenue during the current quarter.

The average interest rate return on cash and investments during the second quarter of 2026 was 3.5%, compared to 3.2% during the same quarter of 2025.
Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are driven by movements of a number of currencies in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The Taiwan Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin Corporation, the Euro is the functional currency of several subsidiaries, and the U.S. Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin (Europe) Ltd., although some transactions and balances are denominated in British Pounds. Other notable currency exposures include the Polish Zloty and Swiss Franc. The majority of the Company’s consolidated foreign currency gain or loss is typically driven by the significant cash, receivables and payables held in a currency other than the functional currency at a given legal entity.
The $2.5 million currency loss recognized in the second quarter of 2026 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar strengthening against the Euro and weakening against the Taiwan Dollar, partially offset by the U.S. Dollar strengthening against the Swiss Franc, within the 13-week period ended June 27, 2026. During this period, the U.S. Dollar strengthened 1.1% against the Euro and weakened 0.6% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in losses of $3.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively, while the U.S. Dollar strengthened 1.8% against the Swiss Franc, resulting in a gain of $4.6 million. The remaining net currency loss of $0.6 million was related to the impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.
The $23.5 million currency loss recognized in the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Taiwan Dollar, partially offset by the U.S Dollar weakening against the Euro and British Pound Sterling, within the 13-week period ended June 28, 2025. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 14.1% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in a loss of $67.7 million, while the U.S Dollar weakened 8.2% against the Euro and 6.0% against the British Pound Sterling, resulting in gains of $36.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The remaining net currency gain of $4.8 million was related to the impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.
Income Tax Provision
The Company recorded income tax expense of $109.1 million in the 13-week period ended June 27, 2026, compared to income tax expense of $79.4 million in the 13-week period ended June 28, 2025. The effective tax rate was 16.8% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 16.5% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in effective tax rate between comparative periods was primarily due to changes in income mix by jurisdiction.
Net Income
As a result of the above, net income for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2026 was $541.9 million compared to $400.8 million for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $141.1 million.

Net sales increased 13% for the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026 when compared to the year-ago period. Total unit sales in the first half of 2026 increased by approximately 9% to 10,451 when compared to total unit sales of 9,565 in the first half of 2025, which differs from the percent increase in revenue primarily due to shifts in segment and product mix. Fitness was the largest portion of our revenue mix in the first half of 2026 at 35% compared to 30% in the first half of 2025.
The increase in fitness revenue was driven by growth across all product categories, led by strong demand for advanced wearables. The increase in aviation revenue was driven by growth in OEM and aftermarket product categories. The increase in marine revenue was driven by growth across multiple product categories. The increase in auto OEM revenue was primarily driven by growth in domain controllers. The outdoor revenue decrease was primarily due to declines in adventure watches.

Gross profit dollars in the first half of 2026 increased 18% when compared to the year-ago period primarily due to the increase in net sales as described above. Consolidated gross margin as a percent of net sales increased 280 basis points when compared to the year-ago period with higher margins across all segments. The consolidated gross margin increase was primarily attributable to favorable product mix within certain segments.
The fitness and outdoor gross margin percentage increases of 380 basis points and 240 basis points, respectively, were primarily attributable to favorable product mix when compared to the year-ago period. The aviation gross margin percentage remained relatively flat with a 20 basis point increase when compared to the year-ago period. The marine gross margin percentage increase of 210 basis points when compared to the year-ago period was primarily attributable to refunds of previously paid tariffs. The auto OEM gross margin percentage increase of 310 basis points when compared to the year-ago period was primarily attributable to year-to-date cost recoveries recognized as revenue during the current period.

Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are driven by movements of a number of currencies in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The Taiwan Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin Corporation, the Euro is the functional currency of several subsidiaries, and the U.S. Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin (Europe) Ltd., although some transactions and balances are denominated in British Pounds. Other notable currency exposures include the Polish Zloty and Swiss Franc. The majority of the Company’s consolidated foreign currency gain or loss is typically driven by the significant cash, receivables and payables held in a currency other than the functional currency at a given legal entity.
The $0.6 million currency gain recognized in the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar strengthening against the Taiwan Dollar and Swiss Franc, partially offset by the U.S. Dollar strengthening against the Euro, within the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026. During this period, the U.S. Dollar strengthened 1.5% against the Taiwan Dollar and 2.8% against the Swiss Franc, resulting in gains of $8.5 million and $8.1 million, respectively, while the U.S. Dollar strengthened 3.3% against the Euro, resulting in a loss of $14.6 million. The remaining net currency loss of $1.4 million was related to the impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.
The $1.2 million currency gain recognized in the 26-week period ended June 28, 2025 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Euro, British Pound Sterling, and Polish Zloty, offset by the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Taiwan Dollar, within the 26-week period ended June 28, 2025. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 12.4% against the Euro, 9.0% against the British Pound Sterling, and 12.8% against the Polish Zloty, resulting in gains of $49.1 million, $4.4 million, and $3.6 million, respectively, while the U.S. Dollar weakened 12.8% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in a loss of $61.6 million. The remaining net currency gain of $5.7 million was related to the impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.
Income Tax Provision
The Company recorded income tax expense of $176.6 million in the first half of 2026, compared to income tax expense of $135.7 million in the first half of 2025. The effective tax rate was 15.7% in the first half of 2026, compared to 15.6% in the first half of 2025. The increase in effective tax rate between comparative periods was primarily due to changes in income mix by jurisdiction.
Net Income
As a result of the above, net income for the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026 was $947.0 million compared to $733.6 million for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2025, an increase of $213.4 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We primarily use, and expect to use, cash flow from operations to fund our capital expenditures, support our working capital requirements, pay dividends, fund share repurchases, and fund strategic acquisitions. We believe that our existing cash balances and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our short- and long-term projected working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other cash requirements.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities
As of June 27, 2026, we had approximately $4.4 billion of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Management invests idle or surplus cash in accordance with the Company's investment policy, which has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The investment policy’s primary objectives are to preserve capital, maintain an acceptable degree of liquidity, and maximize yield within the constraint of low credit risk. Garmin’s average interest rate returns on cash and investments during the first two quarters of 2026 and 2025 were 3.4% and 3.2%, respectively. The fair value of our securities varies from period to period due to changes in interest rates, in the performance of the underlying collateral, and in the credit performance of the underlying issuer, among other factors. See Note 4 – Marketable Securities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding marketable securities.
Cash Flows
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $939.5 million for the first half of 2026, compared to $594.0 million for the first half of 2025. The increase in cash received from customers, primarily driven by higher net sales, was partially offset by increases in cash paid for cost of goods sold and operating expenses in the first half of 2026 compared to the first half of 2025.
24
Cash used in investing activities totaled $396.7 million for the first half of 2026, compared to $246.1 million for the first half of 2025. This increase was primarily due to an increase in net purchases of marketable securities and an increase in purchases of property and equipment in the first half of 2026 compared to the first half of 2025.
Cash used in financing activities totaled $473.2 million for the first half of 2026, compared to $415.7 million for the first half of 2025. This increase was primarily due to higher cash dividend payments in the first half of 2026 compared to the first half of 2025.
Use of Cash
Operating Leases
The Company has lease arrangements for certain real estate properties, vehicles, and equipment. Leased properties are typically used for office space, distribution, data centers, and retail. As of June 27, 2026, the Company had fixed lease payment obligations of $258.8 million, with $48.9 million payable within 12 months.
Inventory Purchase Obligations
The Company obtains various raw materials and components for its products from a variety of third party suppliers. The Company’s inventory purchase obligations are primarily noncancelable commitments. As of June 27, 2026, the Company had inventory purchase obligations of $1,533.7 million, with $1,170.1 million payable within 12 months.
Other Purchase Obligations
The Company’s other purchase obligations primarily consist of noncancelable commitments for capital expenditures and other indirect purchases in connection with conducting our business. As of June 27, 2026, the Company had other purchase obligations of $540.4 million, with $277.9 million payable within 12 months.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
General
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The presentation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to customer sales programs and incentives, product returns, bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For a description of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 and “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There were no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates in the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 27, 2026.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There are numerous market risks that can affect our future business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There have been no material changes during the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 27, 2026 in the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K related to market sensitivity, inflation, foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be timely disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. As of June 27, 2026, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of June 27, 2026 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, actions, and complaints, including matters involving patent infringement, other intellectual property, product liability, customer claims and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company and its subsidiaries will ultimately be successful in any of these legal matters, or if not, what the impact might be. However, the Company’s management does not expect that the results in any of these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows. For additional information, see Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies in the above Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There are many risks and uncertainties that can affect our future business, financial performance or share price. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There have been no material changes during the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026 in the risks presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. These risks, however, are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
