Risk Factors **\n\n \n\nWe have described under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2026, a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, results of operations and financial condition. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from these risk factors previously described in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2025. These risks and uncertainties are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem not material may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or the market price of our Common Stock.\n\n \n\n*There has been recent* *dilution and there may continue to be additional future dilution of our Common Stock, including as a result of the Company*’*s ATM Offering (as defined below), which could adversely affect the market price of shares of our Common Stock.*\n\n \n\nIn February 2025, and subsequently refreshed in August 2025, the Company implemented an “at-the-market” program with Needham & Company, LLC, as sales agent (the “ATM Offering”) that allows us to sell, from time to time, shares of the Company’s Common Stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $20,000,000. From February 2025 through May 8, 2026, the outstanding shares of our Common Stock have increased by 2.1 million shares as a result of sales pursuant to the ATM Offering. We may issue additional shares of Common Stock to raise cash to bolster our liquidity, to repay, refinance, redeem or exchange indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest, and premium, if any), for working capital, to finance strategic initiatives and future acquisitions, or for other purposes. Additional issuances will dilute the ownership interest of our common stockholders. Investors who purchase shares in our ATM Offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices, and numbers of shares sold, and there is no minimum or maximum sales price. Investors may experience declines in the value of their shares as a result of share sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid. In addition, future issuances of Common Stock, including through our ATM Offering, could depress the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of our common stock or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our common stock."}
