Paragraphs with nothing like them in last year's 10-K

Quoted exactly

3 paragraphs in Risk Factors of the 10-K filed Feb 17, 2026 with nothing like them in the 10-K filed Feb 18, 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.

Furthermore, artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies have developed rapidly, and our business may be adversely affected if we cannot successfully integrate AI into our business in a timely, cost-effective, and compliant manner. Our competitors may incorporate AI into their business more successfully than us, which could have an adverse effect on our competitive position, reputation and operations.

Additionally, compliance with new and evolving laws, regulations or industry standards relating to AI may require significant investment and resources, and may limit our ability to use AI, which may result in reputational harm, legal liability or other adverse effects on our operations and overall business.

Paragraphs in the 10-Q filed Oct 29, 2026 that were not in the one before

3 paragraphs in the 10-Q filed Oct 29, 2026 with nothing like them in the 10-Q filed Jul 30, 2026 (at least half the words must differ; new numbers alone do not count). Quoted exactly, grouped by the item heading above them. This is text that changed, not a judgement of how serious it is.

The 10-Q's risk factors against the 10-K

Item 1A of the 10-Q filed Oct 29, 2026 against Item 1A of the 10-K filed Feb 17, 2026. A 10-Q repeats only the risks that changed, so a 10-K paragraph that is missing from it is not counted as removed. Added is a paragraph with nothing like it in the 10-K, Reworded a sentence that is in both with several words changed, Quiet changes a sentence in both where one to four words changed and one is a hedge or a modal (cut words struck through, new words highlighted and underlined). Text on the page, not a score; each links to the filing at sec.gov.

What the 10-Q itself says about its risk factors:
When evaluating an investment in our Common Stock, investors should consider carefully, among other things, the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other reports and registration statements filed with the SEC.
