Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), are designed to ensure that (1) information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (2) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
At the conclusion of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Principal Executive Officer (or PEO) and our Principal Financial Officer (or PFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our PEO and PFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, were ineffective as of June 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company is in process of remediating the material weaknesses identified and discussed in Part II, Item 9A. Controls Procedures of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies, which may be identified during this process.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Item 1A - R isk Factors
We depend upon the success and availability of third-party gaming platforms and the release and availability of successful game titles to drive sales of our gaming accessories.
The performance of our gaming accessories business is affected by the continued success of the PC gaming market and third-party gaming platforms, such as Microsoft’s Xbox consoles, Sony’s PlayStation consoles and Nintendo’s Switch consoles. Our business could suffer if any of these parties fail to continue to drive the success of these platforms, develop new or enhanced video game platforms, or produce and timely release sufficient quantities of such consoles. Further, if a platform is withdrawn from the market or fails to sell, we may be forced to liquidate inventories relating to that platform or accept returns resulting in significant losses.
Our business is also affected by the continued success of third-party publishers developing and releasing game titles for current or future generation platforms. The timely release of flagship titles like Grand Theft Auto VI and others helps drive increased demand for our products. If such flagship titles are not released or are delayed, our results of operation may vary from past or anticipated future results of operation.
Changes in U.S. or foreign trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs on imported goods and other trade restrictions, as well as uncertainty over such actions, may adversely impact our business and financial performance.
We obtain components and products from numerous suppliers throughout the world. Changes in laws or policies governing the terms of foreign trade, and in particular increased trade restrictions, tariffs or taxes on imports from countries where we manufacture our products could have an impact on our competitive position, business operations and financial performance.
Recently, the U.S. government announced substantial changes in U.S. trade policy and U.S. trade agreements, including the initiation of tariffs and trade restrictions on certain foreign goods. In response to these tariffs, certain foreign governments subject to such tariffs, including China, have retaliated by imposing tariffs on certain U.S. goods, which could represent near-term challenges to our industry. Increased retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on U.S. exports, further increases in U.S. tariffs, and the uncertainties surrounding domestic and foreign tariffs could require us to increase our prices, which could decrease demand for our products, and in certain cases, the Company may be unable to pass along such increased costs to our customers.
We are actively monitoring and evaluating the development and potential impacts of tariffs on our supply chain and results of operations. We are also taking steps to mitigate the effects of current and potential tariffs on our business. However, we may not be able to fully mitigate the effects of any prolonged tariffs or trade disputes. Further, additional trade restrictions could be adopted with little to no advanced notice, and we may not be able to effectively mitigate the adverse impacts from such measures.
Other than noted above, there have been no material changes in the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
