Environmental Matter
On December 31, 2024, the Company received a Notice of Potential Violation and Opportunity to Confer (“Notice”) from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) Region VI alleging violations of the Federal Clean Air Act Section 112(r) at one of the Company’s distribution centers. The alleged violations stem from an EPA inspection of the facility in December 2023. The Company conferred with the EPA and provided additional information with respect to the alleged violations and the Company’s corrective actions. Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, on August 4, 2025, the EPA proposed a settlement and penalty based on the alleged violations. Confidential settlement negotiations with the EPA are ongoing and expected to be finalized in the form of a Consent Agreement and Final Order with an expected monetary penalty in excess of $300,000 by the end of the calendar year but is not expected to be material.
