+Added: See Note 2, Basis of Presentation and Note 10, Debt and Borrowings , in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
+Added: As of December 31, 2025, we had $705,800 of debt obligations maturing on December 22, 2026, consisting of $454,000 of loans outstanding under the Revolver and $251,800 of Term Loans (each as defined in Note 10, Debt and Borrowings ).
+Added: As of December 31, 2025, we had cash of $68,017 and available liquidity of $143,651, subject to compliance with financial covenants, and the Company was in compliance with all associated covenants under its Credit Agreement (see Note 10, Debt and Borrowings ).

+Added: As part of this review, on January 30, 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our North American Snacks Business for $115,000, the net proceeds of which will be used to repay a portion of the Term Loans.

+Added: We also continue to actively engage with our lenders, assess opportunities to refinance the Company’s debt or extend the maturity under the Credit Agreement, and evaluate potential capital raising or other strategic transactions.
+Added: We believe that the successful execution of these plans will enable us to refinance and/or retire the existing debt prior to its maturity or extend the maturity date under the Credit Agreement.
+Added: However, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern” requires that management not conclude that such an outcome is “probable” if, among other factors, the outcome is not within the control of the Company.
+Added: Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year following the date of issuance of these financial statements due to the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to refinance or repay its debt due on December 22, 2026 because no such refinancing, retirement or extension has occurred prior to the issuance of the financial statements.
+Added: Our ability to continue as a going concern remains subject to successful execution of our strategic plan and securing additional financing, if needed.
+Added: If we are unable to execute our plans to generate sufficient liquidity, we may not have adequate resources to repay or refinance our debt, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
+Added: The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, and no adjustments have been made to the financial statements to reflect the possibility of our inability to meet our debt obligations or continue as a going concern.
