Guidance and outlook
Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 5, 2026
- We believe our performance depends, and will in the future depend, on many factors, including those described in Part II, Item 7.
- We believe that excluding certain items from our GAAP results allows management to better understand our consolidated financial performance from period to period and better project our future consolidated financial performance as forecasts are developed at a level of detail different from that used to prepare GAAP-based financial measures.
- While we intend to pay quarterly cash dividends on our 6.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”), we do not intend to pay cash dividends on our Class A common stock in the foreseeable future.
- The deposit and borrowing have been netted on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets because a right of offset exists and the parties intend to net settle.
- We expect to be in compliance with all financial covenants for at least 12 months following the issuance of this Quarterly Report.
