Reworded

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risks and all of the other information contained in this Annual Report before deciding whether to invest in our common stock. If any of the following risks are realized, our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. Additional risks of which we are not presently aware or that we currently believe are immaterial may also harm our business andbusiness, results of operations.operations and cash flows. Some statements in this Annual Report, including such statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. See the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Reworded

The U.S. nutritional supplements supplements retail industry is a large and highly fragmented industry with few barriers to entry. We compete against other domestic and international international manufacturers, specialty retailers, mass merchants, multi-level marketing organizations, mail-order and direct-to-consumer companies, and e-commerce companies. This market is highly sensitive to the introduction of new products, which may rapidly capture a significant share of the market. As certain products become more mainstream, with broader distribution, we may experience increased competition for those products. Increased competition from companies that distribute through retail, e-commerce or wholesale channels could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows. Certain of our competitors may have significantly greater greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do, and may be able to adapt to changes in consumer preferences more quickly, devote devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of their products, or generate greater brand recognition. In addition, our competitors may may be more effective and efficient in introducing new products. Furthermore, if we fail to maximize the efficiency of our ship direct to to customers strategies, or fail to provide our customers with an attractive omni-channel experience, our business andbusiness, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. We may not be able to compete effectively, and any of the factors listed above may cause price reductions, reduced margins and losses of our market share.

Reworded

Our failure to appropriately respond to changing consumer preferences and demand for new products or product enhancements could significantly harm our relationship with customers and our product sales, as well as our financial conditioncondition, operating results and operatingcash results.flows.

Reworded

If we do not introduce new products or make enhancements to meet the changing needs of our customers in a timely manner, some of our products could be rendered obsolete, which could negatively impact our revenues, financial condition, operating results and operatingcash results.flows.

Reworded

Certain retailers make up a a significant percentage of our products’ retail volume. For the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, our top two customers accounted for 73%79% of our net revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2023,2024, our top threetwo customers accounted for 78%73% of our netrevenue. revenue. We sell products to our customers under their standard vendor agreements. These vendor agreements do not include a term or duration as sales under each vendor agreement are generally made on a purchase order basis, and do not include any termination provisions. The loss of sales of any of our products in a major retailer, or the reduction of purchasing levels or the cancellation of any business from a major retailer, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance. In addition, if we were to lose one or more of these retailers as a distribution channel for our products, we can make no assurances that we will be able to find a comparable retailer to replace such relationship or that we will be able to find a replacement at all, which could negatively impact our revenues, financial condition, and operating results.

Added

While our exposure to international markets and foreign sourcing is limited, we may still be indirectly affected by global trade developments.

Added

We primarily operate within the United States, and in 2025 and 2024, international sales accounted for 10.1% and 11.5%, respectively, of our total revenue. We purchase only finished goods from third-party manufacturers and do not engage in the direct sourcing of raw materials. This structure limits our direct exposure to international markets, tariffs, and global supply chain disruptions.

Added

However, because our manufacturers may source raw materials from abroad, changes in international trade policies, tariffs, or geopolitical tensions could still affect our supply chain and cost of goods. Any disruptions or cost increases experienced by our manufacturers may impact the availability or pricing of the products we purchase. While our current structure mitigates many of the risks associated with global sourcing, we cannot eliminate the possibility that future global events or trade policies may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Reworded

A downturn in the economy, economy could affect consumer purchases of discretionary items such as the health and wellness products that we offer, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, profitability, and cash flows.

Reworded

As part of our growth strategy, we have a history of pursuing acquisitions of companies with products that are similar or complementary to those that we provide in our businesses to better leverage our existing, scalable infrastructure, and may continue to pursue this strategy in the future. These acquisitions may involve significant cash expenditures, debt incurrence, additional operating losses and expenses, and compliance risks that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and condition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

In addition, these acquisitions involve risks that the acquired businesses will not perform in accordance with expectations, that we may become liable for unforeseen financial or business liabilities of the acquired businesses, including liabilities for failure to comply with healthcare regulations, that the expected synergies associated with acquisitions will not be achieved, and that business judgments concerning the value, strengths, and weaknesses of businesses acquired will prove incorrect, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial conditioncondition, results of operations and results ofcash operations.flows.

Reworded

The nutritional supplement industry increasingly relies on intellectual property rights and although we seek to ensure that we do not infringe the intellectual property rights of others, there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert intellectual property infringement claims against us, which claims may result in substantial costs and diversion of management and other resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditioncondition, operating results and operatingcash results.flows. Our inability to acquire, protect or maintain our intellectual property could harm our ability to compete or grow.

Reworded

Recently it has become more and more common for suppliers and competitors to apply for patents or develop proprietary technologies and processes. We seek to ensure that we do not infringe the intellectual property rights of others, but there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert intellectual property infringement claims against us. These developments could prevent us from offering or supplying competitive products or ingredients in the marketplace. They could also result in litigation or threatened litigation against us related to alleged or actual infringement of third-party rights. If an infringement claim is asserted or litigation is pursued, we may be required to obtain a license of rights, pay royalties on a retrospective or prospective basis or terminate our manufacturing and marketing of our products that are alleged to have infringed. Litigation with respect to such matters could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and other resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

We have one U.S. patent (which expires in April 2025) and numerous U.S. and foreign trademarks and service marks. There can be no assurance that the protection afforded by the patent and these trademarks and service marks will provide us with a competitive advantage or that we will be able to assert our intellectual property rights in infringement actions. We may be required to defend our intellectual property against such infringement, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and other resources. In addition, results of such litigation are difficult to predict and if we are not successful in defending our intellectual property rights, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

Trade secrets are difficult to protect. We rely on trade secrets to protect our proprietary knowledge, especially where we do not believe patent protection is appropriate or obtainable, or where such patents would be difficult to enforce. We rely in part on confidentiality agreements to protect our trade secrets and other proprietary knowledge. We cannot guarantee that we have entered into such agreements with each party that may have had access to our proprietary knowledge, or that such agreements, even if in place, will not be circumvented. These agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of proprietary knowledge and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of such information. In addition, others may independently discover our trade secrets and proprietary knowledge, in which case we may have no right to prevent them from using such trade secrets or proprietary knowledge to compete with us. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights, and failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

We may experience product recalls, withdrawals or seizures, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

We may be subject to product recalls, withdrawals or seizures if any of the products we sell are believed to cause injury or illness or if we are alleged to have violated governmental regulations in the manufacturing, labeling, promotion, sale or distribution of those products. A significant recall, withdrawal or seizure of any of the products we manufacture or sell may require significant management attention, would likely result in substantial and unexpected costs and may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Furthermore, a recall, withdrawal or seizure of any of our products may adversely affect consumer confidence in our brands and thus decrease consumer demand for our products. As is common in the nutritional supplements industry, we rely on our contract manufacturers and suppliers to ensure that the products they manufacture and sell to us comply with all applicable regulatory and legislative requirements. In general, we seek representations and warranties, indemnification and/or insurance from our contract manufacturers and suppliers. However, even with adequate insurance and indemnification, any claims of non-compliance could significantly damage our reputation and consumer confidence in our products. In addition, the failure of those products to comply with applicable regulatory and legislative requirements could prevent us from marketing the products or require us to recall or remove such products from the market, which in certain cases could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

Increases in the price or shortages of supply of key raw materials could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

Our products are composed of of certain key raw materials. If the prices of these raw materials were to increase significantly, it could result in a significant increase to us in the prices charged to us. Raw material prices may increase in the future, and we may not be able to pass on those increases to customers who purchase our products. A significant increase in the price of raw materials that cannot be passed on to customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

We are exposed to credit risk risk primarily on our accounts receivable. We provide credit to our customers in the ordinary course of our business and perform ongoing credit credit evaluations. While we believe that our exposure to concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is mitigated by our large retail partner base, and we make allowances for doubtful accounts, we nevertheless run the risk of our customers not being able able to meet their payment obligations, particularly in a future economic downturn. If a material number of our customers were not able to to meet their payment obligations, our results of operations and cash flows could be harmed.

Reworded

Natural disasters and unusually adverse weather conditions could cause permanent or temporary damage to our distribution centers, impair our ability to purchase, receive or replenish inventory or cause customer traffic to decline, all of which could result in lost sales and otherwise materially and adversely affect our results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

The occurrence of one or more more natural disasters, such as hurricanes, fires, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, high winds and other severe weather, could materially and and adversely affect our operations andoperations, results of operations.operations and cash flows. To the extent these events result in the suspension of shipping by our distributors, closure of our corporate headquarters, or a significant number of the stores in which our products are sold, or to the extent they adversely affect one or more of our key suppliers, our operations and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected through an inability to make deliveries to stores and through lost sales. In addition, these events could result in increases in fuel (or other energy) prices or a fuel shortage, the temporary lack of an adequate work force in a market, the temporary or long-term disruption in the supply of products from suppliers, delay in the delivery of goods to our distribution centers or stores, the temporary reduction in the availability of products in our stores and disruption to our information systems, as noted above. These events also could have indirect indirect consequences, such as increases in the cost of insurance, if they were to result in significant loss of property or other insurable damage.

Reworded

We rely on services and products provided by many vendors in the United States and abroad. These include, for example, outsourcing of manufacturing services. In the event that any vendor suffers a bankruptcy or otherwise becomes unable to continue to provide products or services, or fails to protect our confidential, proprietary, or other information, we may suffer operational impairments and financial losses. In addition, while we generally monitor vendor risk, including the security and stability of our critical vendors, we may fail to properly assess and understand the risks and costs involved in the third-party relationships, and our financial condition andcondition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

Reworded

Omni-channel retailing is rapidly evolving, and we must keep pace with changing customer expectations and new developments by our competitors. Our customers are increasingly using computers, tablets, mobile phones, and other devices to shop online. As part of our omni-channel strategy, we have made and will continue to make technology investments to expand our online distribution. If we are unable to make, improve, or develop relevant customer-facing technology in a timely manner, our ability to compete and our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, if our e-commerce businesses or our other customer-facing technology systems do not function as designed, we may experience a loss of customer confidence, lost sales, or data security breaches, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business andbusiness, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Removed

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq rules and, as a result, qualify for, and may rely on, exemptions and relief from certain corporate governance requirements. If we rely on these exemptions, our stockholders will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to such requirements.

Removed

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Jack Ross, beneficially owns approximately 55% of the voting power of our common stock as of December 31, 2024. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements. For example, controlled companies are not required to have:

Removed

While we do not intend to rely on the exemptions relating to being a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq rules, we may utilize these exemptions for as long as we continue to qualify as a “controlled company.” Accordingly, our stockholders may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. Investors may find our common stock less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

Reworded

Our success depends, in a large large degree, on the skills of our management team and our ability to retain, recruit and motivate key officers and employees. Our active senior senior executive leadership team, including Jack Ross,Ross and Jaime Fickett and Alfred Baumeler,Fickett, have significant experience, and their knowledge and relationships relationships would be difficult to replace. Leadership changes will occur from time to time, and we cannot predict whether significant resignations resignations will occur or whether we will be able to recruit additional qualified personnel. Competition for senior executives and skilled personnel personnel in our industry is intense, which means the cost of hiring, paying incentives and retaining skilled personnel may continue to increase.

Reworded

We need to continue to attract and retain key personnel and to recruit qualified individuals to succeed existing key personnel to ensure the continued growth and successful operation of our business. In addition, we must attract and retain qualified personnel to continue to grow our business, and competition for such personnel can be intense. Our ability to effectively compete for senior executives and other qualified personnel by offering competitive compensation and benefit arrangements may be restricted by cash flow and other operational restraints. The loss of the services of any senior executive or other key personnel, or the inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition orcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows. In addition, to attract and retain personnel with appropriate skills and knowledge to support our business, we may offer a variety of benefits, which could reduce our earnings or have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition orcondition, results of operations.operations or cash flows.

Added

In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, and we may identify additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting, which may cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in material misstatements of our consolidated financial statements and could have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of our common stock.

Added

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting, to report any material weaknesses in such internal control, and provide management’s attestation on internal control over financial reporting. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of an entity’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If we are unable to establish or maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting or implement these requirements in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, it could result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements, failure to meet our reporting obligations on a timely basis, increases in compliance costs, and subject us to adverse regulatory consequences, all of which may adversely affect investor confidence and the value of our common stock.

Added

As discussed below in Part II, Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures,” our management identified material weaknesses in implementation of segregation of duties and establishment of clearly defined roles within our finance and accounting functions. Moreover, management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025, due to the material weaknesses. The material weaknesses did not result in any material misstatements to our consolidated financial statements or any changes to previously filed financial statements, and management has concluded that our financial statements and other financial information included in this Annual Report, and other periodic filings, fairly present our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

Added

We are committed to remediating the material weaknesses described above and continuing remediation efforts during 2026. We intend to initiate and implement several remediation measures including, but not limited to clearly define roles and responsibilities. As part of its remediation measures, to date, we have investigated additional procedures we can implement for segregation. While our efforts are ongoing, we plan to continue to take additional steps to remediate the material weaknesses, improve our financial reporting systems, and implement new policies, procedures, and controls; however, we cannot guarantee those measures will prevent or detect material weaknesses in the future. If we fail to remediate the material weaknesses or any future deficiencies, or fail to otherwise maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, that could result in a restatement of our financial statements for prior periods, a decline in the market price of our common stock, one or more investigations or enforcement actions by state or federal regulatory agencies, stockholder lawsuits, or other adverse actions requiring us to incur defense costs or pay fines, settlements, or judgments.

Reworded

Congress and/or regulatory agencies may impose additional laws or regulations or change current laws or regulations, and state attorneys general may increase enforcement of existing existing or new laws, and compliance with new or changed governmental regulations, or any state attorney proceeding, could increase our costs significantly and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

From time to time, Congress, the FDA, the FTC, or other federal, state, local or foreign legislative and regulatory authorities may impose additional laws or regulations that apply to us, repeal laws or regulations that we consider favorable to us or impose more stringent interpretations of current laws or regulations. We are not able to predict the nature of such future laws, regulations, repeals or interpretations or to predict the effect that additional governmental regulation, when and if it occurs, would have on our business in the future. Those developments could require reformulation of certain products to meet new standards, recalls or discontinuance of certain products (including products that we sell) not able to be reformulated, additional record-keeping requirements, increased documentation of the properties of certain products, additional or different labeling, additional scientific substantiation, adverse event reporting or other new requirements. For example, in recent years, the FDA has issued warning letters to several cosmetic companies alleging improper claims regarding their cosmetic products. If the FDA determines that we have disseminated inappropriate drug claims for our products intended to be sold as cosmetics, we could receive a warning or untitled letter, be required to modify our product claims or take other actions to satisfy the FDA. Any developments of this nature could increase our costs significantly and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition andcondition, results of operations.operations and cash flows.

Reworded

The FTC has instituted numerous enforcement actions against dietary supplement companies for failure to have adequate substantiation for claims made in advertising or for the use of false or misleading advertising claims. Failure by us to comply with applicable regulations could result in substantial monetary penalties, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition orcondition, results of operations.operations or cash flows.

Reworded

Even when unmerited, class claims, action by the FTC or state attorneys general enforcement actions can be expensive to defend and adversely affect our reputation with existing and potential customers and consumers and our corporate and brand image, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition orcondition, results of operations.operations or cash flows. The number of private consumer class actions relating to false or deceptive advertising against nutritional supplement companies has increased in recent years. In addition, the FDA has aggressively enforced its regulations with respect to different types of product claims that may or may not be made for food products. These events could interrupt the marketing and sales of our products, severely damage our brand reputation and public image, increase our legal expenses, result in product recalls or litigation, and impede our ability to deliver our products in sufficient quantities or quality, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Reworded

If we fail to protect the integrity and security of customer-related and other confidential information, we could be exposed to litigation, increased costs and reputational damage, and our business, results of operationsoperations, cash flows and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Reworded

The use of individually identifiable data by us, our customers, and others is regulated at the state, federal and international levels. Privacy and information security laws and regulations change from time to time, and there may not always be clear guidance from the respective governments and regulators regarding the interpretation of these laws and regulations, which may create the risk of an inadvertent violation. In addition, the increasing costs of compliance with those laws and regulations and related technology investments could materially and adversely affect our businessbusiness, results of operations and results ofcash operations.flows. Additionally, the success of our e-commerce operations depends upon the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks, including the use of cashless payments, and we use computers in substantially all other aspects of our business operations. Such uses give rise to cybersecurity risks, including security breach, espionage, system disruption, theft and inadvertent release of information. While we have taken significant steps to protect customers’ personal information, consumer preferences and credit card information, and other confidential information, including our employees’ private information and financial and strategic data about the Company and our business partners, our suppliers or others may undermine our security measures. As a result, unauthorized parties may obtain access to our data systems and misappropriate confidential data. Furthermore, because the methods used to obtain unauthorized access change frequently and may not be immediately detected, we may be unable to anticipate these methods or implement preventative measures, and our incident response efforts may not be entirely effective. Any preventative measures we implement may have the potential to negatively affect our relations with our customers or decrease activity on our websites or apps by making them less user-friendly. If our data security is compromised, it could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, results of operationsoperations, cash flows and financial condition, materially increase the costs we incur to protect against those events in the future and subject us to additional legal risk and a competitive disadvantage disadvantage and damage to our brand reputation. In addition, our customers could lose confidence in our ability to protect their personal information, information, which could cause them to stop using our websites or apps. We are reliant on third-party electronic payment systems and platforms, such as PayPal, Stripe, Amazon Pay, AfterpayAfterpay, Tik-Tok and Shopify Payments, not only to protect the security of the information stored, but also to appropriately track and record data. Any failures or inadequacies in these third-party systems, even if unrelated to our business, could result in significant liability, could materially and adversely affect our reputation and business and could cause government agencies to enact additional regulatory requirements or to modify their enforcement or investigation activities.

Reworded

U.S. generally accepted accounting principlesGAAP and related pronouncements, implementation guidelines and interpretations with regard to a wide variety of matters that are relevant to our business, such as, but not limited to, revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, trade promotions, and income taxes are highly complex and involve many subjective assumptions, estimates and judgments by our management. Changes to these rules or their interpretation or changes in underlying assumptions, estimates or judgments by our management could significantly change our reported results.

Reworded

In addition, if the market for stocks in our industry or the stock market, in general, experience a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, results of operations, or financial condition. The trading price of our common stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry even if these events do not directly affect us. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. If our stock price is volatile, we may become the target of securities litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources from our business. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Removed

A significant number of our total outstanding shares are restricted from immediate resale, but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

Removed

Subject to certain exceptions, without the prior written consent of Roth Capital Partners, LLC, the underwriter in our initial public offering, we, and our officers and directors and our 5% and greater stockholders, until April 20, 2025, have agreed not to: (1) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of common stock; (2) file any registration statement with the SEC relating to the offering of any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock; or (3) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of common stock, subject to certain exceptions. Roth Capital Partners, LLC, in its sole discretion, may release the common stock and other securities subject to the lock-up agreements described above in whole or in part at any time with or without notice.

Removed

The market price of our common stock may decline significantly when the restrictions on resale by our existing stockholders lapse. A decline in the market price of our common stock might impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional shares of common stock or other equity securities.

Reworded

We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, for the foreseeable future, to repay indebtedness and to fund the development and growth of our business. We do not intend to pay any dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our Board taking into accountconsidering various factors, including our business, operating results and financial condition, current and anticipated cash needs, plans for expansion, any legal or contractual limitations on our ability to pay dividends under our loan agreements or otherwise. As a result, if our Board does not declare and pay dividends, the capital appreciation in the price of our common stock, if any, will be your only source of gain on an investment in our common stock, and you may have to sell some some or all of your common stock to generate cash flow from your investment.

In accordance with ASC 606, we continue to recognize revenue from IP license at the time of delivery when the customer accepts control of the IP, as the IP is functional without professional services, updates and technical support.

Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on our current understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
