Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 5, 2026
- The Company has strong relationships with its retail customers such as Target, Walmart, Amazon, Sephora and other leading retailers that have enabled the Company to expand distribution both domestically and internationally.
- To support anticipated higher sales during the third and fourth fiscal quarters, we make investments in working capital to ensure inventory levels can support demand.
- We expect to fund ongoing cash needs from existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and, if necessary, draws on our Revolving Credit Facility.
- We believe that our operating cash flow, existing cash and cash equivalents and available financing under the Revolving Credit Facility will be adequate to meet our planned operating, investing and financing needs for the next twelve months.
- To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that they will be obtained through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of these potential sources of funds; however, such financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.
- Our ability to meet our operating, investing and financing needs depends to a significant extent on our future financial performance, which will be subject in part to general economic, competitive, financial, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control, including those described elsewhere in Part II, Item 1A.
