5 paragraphs in Risk Factors of the 10-K filed Feb 23, 2026 with nothing like them in the 10-K filed Feb 13, 2025. Quoted exactly. Paragraphs that were only edited are under 10-K change.
Compared with the Risk Factors in the latest 10-K of the other 31 Consumer staples companies: a paragraph with at least half its words the same at another company is called similar, and the companies are listed under it. A paragraph most of them have is marked boilerplate. No line means no other company has one like it. This counts text; it does not say how serious a risk is.
Negative publicity, posts or comments on digital and social media (including those that are AI-generated), whether true or untrue, could damage our brands and our reputation. The success of our brands could also suffer if our marketing initiatives do not have the desired impact on a brand’s image or its ability to attract consumers.

Quiet changes a sentence in both where one to four words changed and one is a hedge or a modal
