The Company may be adversely impacted if the Company is affected by cybersecurity attacks or other security breaches. IT systems are an important part of the Company’s business operations. The Company also increasingly relies upon third-party service providers for a variety of business functions, including cloud-based services. The Company has programs in place to prevent, detect, contain, and respond to cyber incidents. However, the Company may be unable to anticipate security incidents, detect attacks, or implement adequate preventive measures as cyber threats continue to evolve and cyberattacks have become more sophisticated and frequent, including through the use of enhanced technologies and capabilities (such as artificial intelligence) by threat actors with a wide range of expertise and motives. For example, threat actors have increasingly targeted organizations in the U.S. and internationally with sophisticated ransomware attacks, which the Company may be unable to anticipate, detect, or contain. In addition, hardware or software that the Company develops or obtains from third parties may contain defects that could compromise the Company's IT systems. Unauthorized parties may also attempt to gain access to the Company's IT systems or facilities, or those of third parties with whom the Company does business, through fraud, deception, social engineering, or other bad acts. Errors or malicious actions by the Company's team members or contractors and other vulnerabilities or irregularities could also negate the Company's security measures or those of third parties with whom the Company does business and result in a compromise or breach of the Company's or their IT systems. The utilization of hybrid and remote work by the Company's team members, suppliers, and other third parties has amplified the Company's already extensive reliance on IT systems and unimpeded internet access. Furthermore, the training the Company conducts as part of information security and cybersecurity efforts may not be effective in preventing or limiting successful attacks.

Damage to the Company’s reputation or brand image could adversely affect its business. Maintaining and enhancing the reputation of the Company and its key brands is critical to the Company's business success. The Company's reputation is largely based on perceptions. It may be difficult to address negative publicity or sensationalism across media channels, regardless of its accuracy or the reputability of its source, including as a result of fictitious media content (such as content produced by artificial intelligence or bad actors). Negative incidents (including those based on differing perspectives or opinions) involving the Company, its brands, its workforce, or others with whom the Company does business could quickly erode trust and confidence and result in changes in behavior including consumer boycotts, workforce unrest or walkouts, government investigations, and litigation. Negative reputational incidents or negative perceptions of the Company or its brands could adversely affect the Company's business and results of operations, including through lower sales, the termination of business relationships, higher costs, and team member engagement, retention, and recruiting difficulties. The Company has previously experienced negative perceptions of its business, and it could experience similar occurrences in the future. Any of these outcomes could negatively impact the Company's reputation, results of operations, and financial condition.
