Item 1A. Risk Factors
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We discuss in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 25, 2023 various risks that may materially affect our business. We use this section to update this discussion to reflect material developments since our Form 10-K was filed.
We rely extensively on computer systems to process transactions, summarize results and manage our business. Disruptions in both our primary and back-up systems could adversely affect our business and operating results.
Our primary and back-up computer systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches, natural disasters and errors by employees. Though losses arising from some of these issues would be covered by insurance, interruptions of our critical business computer systems or failure of our back-up systems could reduce our sales or result in longer production times. If our critical business computer systems or back-up systems are damaged or cease to function properly, we may have to make a significant investment to repair or replace them. For example, we disclosed a cybersecurity incident in Item 1.05 of Current Reports on Form 8-K and 8-K/A filed on July 15, 2024 and August 6, 2024, respectively, relating to the detection of unauthorized occurrences on a portion of our information technology (IT) systems.
