Effective January 1, 2024, we moved the digital delivery services offering from the Global Ecommerce segment to the SendTech Solutions segment in order to leverage our technology and innovation capabilities to better serve our clients. Prior periods have been recast to conform to our current segment presentation.

Our reportable segments are Global Ecommerce, Presort Services and SendTech Solutions. The principal products and services of each reportable segment are as follows:

Global Ecommerce: Includes the revenue and related expenses from ~~business to~~ consumer logistics services for domestic and cross-border delivery, returns and fulfillment.

Adjusted segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, ~~unallocated~~general corporate expenses, restructuring charges, ~~and asset impairments,~~ goodwill impairment charges and other items not allocated to a particular business ~~segments.~~segment.

Allowance for Credit Losses

We provide an allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, the nature of our portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a client's ability to pay and current economic conditions and outlook based on reasonable and supportable forecasts. We continually evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses and adjust as necessary. The assumptions used in determining an estimate of credit losses are inherently subjective and actual results may differ significantly from estimated reserves.

We ~~established~~establish credit approval limits based on the client's credit quality ~~of the client~~ and the type of equipment financed. We cease financing revenue recognition for lease receivables and ~~for~~ unsecured loan receivables that are more than 90 days past due. Revenue recognition is resumed when the client's payments reduce the account aging to less than 60 days past due. Finance receivables are written off against the allowance after all collection efforts have been exhausted and management deems the account to be uncollectible. We believe that our credit risk is low because of the geographic and industry diversification of our clients and small account balances for most of our clients.

Credit Quality

The extension ~~of credit~~ and management of credit lines to new and existing clients uses a combination of a client's credit score, where available, a detailed manual review of their financial condition and payment history, or an automated process. Once credit is granted, the payment performance of the client is managed through automated collections processes and is supplemented with direct follow up should an account become delinquent. We have robust automated collections and extensive portfolio management processes to ensure that our global strategy is executed, collection resources are allocated and enhanced tools and processes are implemented as needed.

Over 85% of our finance receivables are within the North American portfolio. We use a third-party to score the majority of this portfolio on a quarterly basis using a proprietary commercial credit score. The relative scores are determined based on a number of factors, including financial information, payment history, company type and ownership structure. We stratify the ~~third party's~~ credit scores of our clients into low, medium and high-risk accounts. Due to timing and other issues, our entire portfolio may not be scored at period end. We report these amounts as "Not Scored"; however, absence of a score is not indicative of the credit quality of the account. The ~~third-party~~ credit score is used to predict the payment behaviors of our clients and the probability that an account will become greater than 90 days past due during the subsequent 12-month period.

•Low risk accounts are companies with very good credit scores and a predicted delinquency rate of less than 5%.

•Medium risk accounts are companies with average to good credit scores and a predicted delinquency rate between 5% and 10%.

•High risk accounts are companies with poor credit scores, are delinquent or are at risk of becoming delinquent. The predicted delinquency rate would be greater than 10%.

We do not use a third-party to score our International portfolio because the cost to do so is prohibitive as there is no single credit score model that covers all countries. Accordingly, the entire International portfolio is reported in the Not Scored category. ~~This portfolio comprises less than 15% of total finance receivables.~~ Most of the International credit applications are small dollar applications (i.e. below $50 thousand) and are subjected to an automated review process. Larger credit applications are manually reviewed, which includes obtaining client financial information, credit reports and other available financial information.

~~Global Ecommerce goodwill is net of accumulated goodwill impairment charges of $317 million and $198 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.~~

At the end of the second quarter of 2023, we determined that the performance of our Global Ecommerce reporting unit through June 30, 2023 and continuing changes in macroeconomic conditions, was a triggering event that caused us to evaluate the Global Ecommerce goodwill for impairment. To assess Global Ecommerce goodwill for impairment, we determined the fair value of the reporting unit and compared it to the unit's carrying value, including goodwill. We engaged a third-party to assist in the determination of the fair value of the reporting unit.

he fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on management developed cash flow projections, which included judgements and assumptions related to revenue growth rates, operating margins, operating income, and a discount rate. We determined that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying value and recorded a non-cash, pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $119 million in the second quarter of 2023. Future changes in any of these judgements or assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and result in an additional impairment charge in the future. The estimates and assumptions are considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

8. Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments

We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. An entity is required to classify certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on the following fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3– Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, may be derived from internally developed methodologies based on management’s best estimate of fair value and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect its placement within the fair value hierarchy. The following tables show, by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

Investment Securities

The valuation of investment securities is based on ~~the~~a market approach using inputs that are observable, or can be corroborated by observable data, in an active marketplace. The following information relates to our classification within the fair value hierarchy:

•Money Market Funds: Money market funds typically invest in government securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and other highly liquid, low risk securities. Money market funds are principally used for overnight deposits and are classified as Level 1 when unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are available and as Level 2 when they are not actively traded on an exchange.

•Equity Securities: Equity securities are comprised of mutual funds investing in U.S. and foreign stocks. These mutual funds are classified as Level 2.

•Commingled Fixed Income Securities: Commingled fixed income securities are comprised of mutual funds that invest in a variety of fixed income securities, including securities of the U.S. government and its agencies, corporate debt, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. Fair value is based on the value of the underlying investments owned by each fund, minus its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, as reported by the fund manager. These mutual funds are classified as Level 1 when unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are available and as Level 2 when they are not actively traded on an exchange.

•Government and Related Securities: Debt securities are classified as Level 1 when unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are available. Debt securities are classified as Level 2 where fair value is determined using quoted market prices for similar securities or benchmarking model derived prices to quoted market prices and trade data for identical or comparable securities.

•Corporate Debt Securities: Corporate debt securities are valued using recently executed comparable transactions, market price quotations or bond spreads for the same maturity as the security. These securities are classified as Level 2.

•Mortgage-Backed Securities / Asset-Backed Securities: These securities are valued based on external pricing indices or external price/spread data. These securities are classified as Level 2.

Derivative Securities

•~~Foreign Exchange Contracts:~~ The valuation of foreign exchange derivatives is based on the market approach using observable market inputs, such as foreign currency spot and forward rates and yield curves. These securities are classified as Level 2.

•Interest Rate Swaps: The valuation of interest rate swaps is based on an income approach using inputs that are observable or that can be derived from, or corroborated by, observable market data. These securities are classified as Level 2.

At ~~September 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, all securities in the investment portfolio were in an unrealized loss position. However, we have the ability and intent to hold these securities until recovery of the unrealized losses or expect to receive the stated principal and interest at maturity. Accordingly, we have not recognized an impairment loss and our allowance for credit losses on these investment securities is not significant.

This will be achieved through the elimination of 850-950 positions worldwide in part through further centralization and standardization of processes, including the expansion of our shared services activities, increased automation, and the consolidation or closure of select facilities in North America. Total charges are expected to be ~~$60 million-~~$60-$70 million ~~consisting of employee severance~~ and ~~facility consolidation costs. We~~we expect to substantially complete these actions by the end of the first half of 2024. Total charges under the 2023 Plan to date are $62 million.

~~During the quarter, we issued an aggregate $275 million of senior secured notes. The notes mature in~~At March ~~2028 and bear interest of SOFR plus 6.9%, payable quarterly. The notes were issued with original issue discount of 3%, and the net proceeds were used to redeem the March~~31, 2024, ~~notes and repay $30 million of the term loan due March 2026.~~

Through September 30, 2023, we purchased an aggregate $39 million of the March 2024 notes and March 2027 notes and recognized a gain of $3 million. Additionally, we made scheduled principal repayments of $27 million on our term loans. At September 30, 2023, the interest rate on the 2026 Term Loan was 7.7%, the interest rate on the 2028 Term Loan was 9.4% and the interest rate on the March 2028 notes was ~~12.3%~~12.2%.

The credit agreement that governs our $500 million secured revolving credit facility and the term ~~loans~~loan due March 2026 contains certain financial covenants. These covenants require us to maintain, on a quarterly basis, a maximum leverage ratio and ~~non-financial covenants. In~~a minimum interest coverage ratio, both of which are defined and calculated in accordance with the credit agreement. The maximum leverage ratio decreases from 4.25x to 4.0x as of June ~~2023, we amended this credit agreement~~30, 2024 and the minimum interest coverage ratio increases from 1.75x to ~~provide additional flexibility in managing our capital structure.~~2.0x as of March 31, 2025. At ~~September 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with ~~all~~these financial covenants. Additionally, management expects that we will remain in compliance with these financial covenants over the next twelve months. However, events and circumstances could occur, some beyond our control, that could adversely impact our compliance with these covenants and require us to obtain a waiver from our lenders, modify our existing covenants or refinance certain debt to cure the noncompliance. If we are unable to cure the noncompliance, amounts due under our revolving credit facility and term loan due March 2026 could be called by our lenders. At March 31, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Borrowings under ~~the revolving credit facility, term loans and March 2028 notes~~our secured debt are secured by assets of the company.

We have outstanding interest rate swaps that effectively convert $200 million of our variable rate debt to fixed rates. In January 2023, the reference rate of the interest rate swaps was amended to align with the secured revolving credit facility. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, we pay fixed-rate interest of 0.585% and receive variable-rate interest based on one-month SOFR plus 0.1%. The variable interest rates under the term loans and the swaps reset monthly.

The Pitney Bowes Bank (the Bank), a wholly owned subsidiary, is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and has access to certain credit products as a funding source known as "advances." As of September 30, 2023, the Bank had yet to apply for any advances.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 was ~~25.1%.~~129.8% compared to 29.6% for the prior year period. The effective tax rate for ~~the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 9.4% and includes a benefit of $1 million on the $119 million goodwill impairment charge as the majority of this charge~~interim periods is ~~nondeductible.~~

~~The~~determined using an annual effective tax rate, adjusted for ~~the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was 45.8% and 5.6%, respectively, and includes a charge of $2 million due to state tax legislation~~discrete items. The forecasted annual income earned in foreign jurisdictions offset by U.S. losses will result in minimal consolidated pre-tax income. Accordingly, unfavorable tax adjustments related to the U.S. taxation of our foreign operations and state valuation allowance adjustments has resulted in a ~~benefit of $1 million as a result of the finalization~~high quarterly and ~~filing of state income tax returns. The~~annual effective tax ~~rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 also includes~~rate.

On a regular basis, we conclude tax ~~benefit~~return examinations, statutes of ~~$4 million on the pre-tax gain~~limitation expire, and court decisions interpret tax law. We regularly assess tax uncertainties in light of ~~$4 million from the sale of Borderfree~~these developments; and as ~~the tax basis was higher than book basis and a $1 million benefit associated with the 2019 sale of a business.~~

~~As is the case with other large corporations, our tax returns are examined by tax authorities in the U.S. and other global taxing jurisdictions in which we have operations. As~~ a result, it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease in the next 12 months, and this decrease could be up to ~~15%~~10% of our unrecognized tax benefits.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we are involved in litigation pertaining to, among other things, contractual rights under vendor, insurance or other contracts; intellectual property or patent rights; equipment, service, payment or other disputes with clients; or disputes with employees. Some of these actions may be brought as a purported class action on behalf of a purported class of customers, employees, or others. Due to uncertainties inherent in litigation, any actions could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, in management's opinion, the final outcome of outstanding matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

~~As of September 30, 2023, we have entered into real estate and equipment leases with aggregate payments of $18 million and terms ranging from~~

~~three~~
~~to seven years that have not commenced.~~

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OUTLOOK

We earn a larger percentage of our revenue in the fourth quarter as compared to other quarters, primarily driven by increased shipping volumes during the holiday season. We believe we are well-positioned to process the holiday shipping volumes. For the full year 2023, we expect consolidated revenue onto be flat to a ~~comparable basis (see Factors Affecting Comparability below), to~~low single-digit decline ~~between 3%-4%~~ and ~~adjusted~~ EBIT margins to ~~remain~~be relatively flat in 2024 compared to ~~2022.~~2023. Within SendTech Solutions, we expect revenue and profit declines due in part to lower equipment sales as initial lease terms of prior equipment sales expire and customers are expected to renew these leases for a fixed term rather than purchase new equipment. We also expect revenue to decline from lower meter populations due to the migration to cloud-based solutions. These declines will be partially offset by higher shipping revenues.

Within Presort Services, we anticipate total volumes to be relatively flat in 2024 compared to 2023, but revenue, margin and profit to improve due to higher revenue-per-piece and lower costs driven by the investments made to improve productivity.

Within Global Ecommerce, we expect revenue growth in domestic parcel services driven by increased volumes, partially ~~offsets softness in our~~offset by lower revenue from cross-border services and ~~digital delivery services operations. Throughout 2023, cross-border operations have been adversely impacted by macroeconomic challenges and a reduction in~~lower domestic parcel ~~volumes, primarily from two clients, as compared to 2022.~~revenue per piece. We anticipate ~~this revenue trend to continue during the remainder of 2023. We anticipate full year~~ margin and profit improvements ~~in domestic parcel as~~ compared to ~~the prior year; however, these improvements will be more than offset by declines~~2023.

We continue to make progress on our worldwide restructuring program and expect annualized cost savings in ~~both cross-border and digital delivery services operations primarily driven by lower volumes.~~

Presort Services revenue has benefited from pricing actions designed to offset inflationary pressure on costs. In addition, incremental volumes from prior year acquisitions and growth in Marketing Mail Flats and Bound Printed Matter volumes, have offset the impact on revenue from lower First Class Mail and Marketing Mail volumes. We expect full year revenue growth compared to 2022 and margin and profit improvements driven by pricing actions and our investments in network management, automation and higher-throughput sortation equipment.

In SendTech Solutions, revenue growth from new products and our cloud-enabled shipping solutions partially offset the expected decline in mailing related revenues and we expect to see this trend continue through the remainderexcess of the ~~year. Overall segment margins are expected to remain within their historical range.~~

In May 2023, we approved a worldwide restructuring plan (the 2023 Plan) designed to improve profitability and cash flow by reducing complexity, streamlining operating processes, and driving further operational efficiencies. We have identified additional actions under the 2023 Plan and are updating our initial estimates. The updated 2023 Plan includes the elimination of 850-950 positions worldwide in part through further centralization and standardization of processes, including the expansion of our shared services activities, increased automation, and the consolidation or closure of select facilities in North America. Total charges are expected to be $60 million-$75-$7085 million ~~with cash-related charges of $50 million-$60 million, the majority of which will be paid~~target by the end of ~~2024. The 2023 Plan is expected to generate annualized cost savings~~2024, a portion of ~~$75 million-$85 million by the end of 2024. We~~which was realized in 2023. However, we also expect ~~these actions will be substantially completed by the end of the first half of 2024.~~

~~Certain factors beyond our control could have adverse impacts on our 2023 results including, but not limited to, reduced consumer spending due to inflationary pressures and rising prices,~~ higher interest ~~rates, downward pricing pressure in the market for shipping services, a slow-down in economic activity, higher fuel~~ and ~~transportation~~tax costs and ~~other adverse geopolitical developments, including those related~~the restoration of variable compensation costs in 2024 to China. Inflationary pressures and rising prices could put increased pressure on wages, particularly warehouse and transportation employees, and result in higher component costs. Higher fuel and freight costs could also adversely impact our operations.significantly offset these savings.

OVERVIEW OF CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

~~Factors Affecting Comparability~~

~~Certain transactions and changes occurred in 2022 that impact the comparability of our 2023 financial results to the prior periods. These transactions and changes include:~~

•the sale of our Borderfree cross-border ecommerce solutions business (Borderfree) in July 2022. Accordingly, reported revenue and costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 include revenue and costs for Borderfree. Net income of Borderfree for these periods was not significant.

•a change in the presentation of revenue for digital delivery services effective October 1, 2022, from a gross basis to a net basis. Accordingly, in 2023, revenue and costs of revenue for certain digital delivery services are reported on a net basis as business services revenue; whereas for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, revenue and cost of revenue for these services were reported as business services revenue and cost of business services, respectively. The change primarily impacts our Global Ecommerce segment.

Constant Currency

In the tables below, we report the change in revenue on a reported basis and a constant currency basis. Constant currency measures exclude the impact of changes in currency exchange rates from the prior period under comparison. We believe that excluding the impacts of currency exchange rates provides investors with a better understanding of the underlying revenue performance. Constant currency change is calculated by converting the current period non-U.S. dollar denominated revenue using the prior year’s exchange rate.

Revenue decreased ~~$47~~$4 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2023~~2024 compared to the prior year period primarily due to ~~a decrease~~lower support services revenue of $9 million, lower equipment sales of $5 million and lower supplies revenue of $2 million, partially offset by an increase in business services revenue of ~~$34 million, lower equipment sales of $7 million and lower support services revenue of $6~~$12 million.

Total costs and expenses decreased ~~$20~~$25 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to:

•Interest expense, net, represents interest on our outstanding debt, net of interest income. We allocate a portion of gross interest expense to financing interest expense based on our effective interest rate and average finance receivables for the period. Total interest expense, net, for the third quarter of 2023, including financing interest expense, increased $6$7 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher interest rates.

•SG&A expense declined $5 million compared to the prior year period primarily driven by lower credit cards fees of $9 million, lower amortization expense of $8 million, lower stock based compensation expense of $8 million, and lower marketing expenses of $4 million, partially offset by incremental proxy solicitation fees of $11 million, higher variable compensation expense of $9 million and higher credit loss provision of $5 million.

•~~Restructuring charges and asset impairments increased $30 million compared to the prior year period primarily driven by actions taken under the 2023 Plan.~~

•~~A non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $119 million associated with our Global Ecommerce reporting unit.~~

•Interest expense, net represents interest on our outstanding debt, net of interest income. We allocate a portion of gross interest expense to financing interest expense based on our effective interest rate and average finance receivables for the period. Total interest expense, net for the first nine months of 2023, including financing interest expense, increased $14 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher interest rates.

•Other income, net declined $17 million compared to the prior year period primarily driven by prior year gains of $25 million from the sale of assets and businesses, partially offset by a favorable year-over-year impact of $8 million associated with the redemption/refinancing of debt.

~~The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 9.4%, primarily due to the nondeductibility of the goodwill impairment charge. See Note 12 for more information.~~

~~Net loss for the first nine months of 2023 was $162 million compared to net income of $31 million in the prior year period.~~

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 2023, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $579 million, which includes $117 million held at our foreign subsidiaries used to support the liquidity needs of those subsidiaries. Our ability to maintain adequate liquidity for our operations is dependent upon a number of factors, including our revenue and earnings, our ability to manage costs and improve productivity, our clients' ability to pay their balances on a timely basis and the impacts of changing macroeconomic and geopolitical ~~conditions~~conditions. At March 31, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $538 million, which includes $116 million held at our ~~ability~~foreign subsidiaries used to ~~manage costs~~support their liquidity needs.

The credit agreement that governs our $500 million secured revolving credit facility and ~~improve productivity.~~ the term loan due March 2026 contains certain financial covenants. These covenants require us to maintain, on a quarterly basis, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio, both of which are defined and calculated in accordance with the credit agreement. The maximum leverage ratio decreases from 4.25x to 4.0x as of June 30, 2024 and the minimum interest coverage ratio increases from 1.75x to 2.0x as of March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with these financial covenants. Additionally, management expects that we will remain in compliance with these financial covenants over the next twelve months. However, events and circumstances could occur, some beyond our control, that could adversely impact our compliance with these covenants and require us to obtain a waiver from our lenders, modify our existing covenants or refinance certain debt to cure the noncompliance. If we are unable to cure the noncompliance, amounts due under our revolving credit facility and term loan due March 2026 could be called by our lenders. At March 31, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Borrowings under our secured debt are secured by assets of the company.

At this time, we believe that existing cash and investments, cash generated from operations and borrowing capacity under our $500 million revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our cash needs for the next 12 months.

Under the terms of the March 2028 note purchase agreement, the annual amount of permitted dividend payments is capped at the lesser of $36 million or a maximum dividend yield of 6.25%. In addition, share repurchases would further limit this amount. We currently expect to continue paying a quarterly dividend; however, no assurances can be given.

At September 30, 2023, we have entered into real estate and equipment leases with aggregate payments of $18 million and terms ranging from three to seven years that have not commenced. Most of these leases are expected to commence in the first half of 2024.

~~At September 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, there are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

~~Critical Accounting Estimates~~

~~Goodwill~~

The performance of our Global Ecommerce reporting unit through June 30, 2023, and continuing changes in macroeconomic conditions, was a triggering event causing us to evaluate the Global Ecommerce goodwill for impairment at June 30, 2023. To assess Global Ecommerce goodwill for impairment, we determined the fair value of the Global Ecommerce reporting unit and compared it to the unit's carrying value, including goodwill. We engaged a third-party to assist in the determination of the fair value of the reporting unit. We determined that the reporting unit's estimated fair value was less than its carrying value and recorded a non-cash, pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $119 million in the second quarter of 2023 to reduce the carrying value of the Global Ecommerce reporting unit to its estimated fair value.

The fair value of the reporting unit was estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on management developed cash flow projections, which included judgements and assumptions related to revenue growth rates, operating margins, operating income, and a discount rate. The judgements and assumptions used to estimate the fair value were inherently subjective and changes in any of the judgements or assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and result in an additional impairment charge in the future.

Regulatory Matters

There have been no significant changes to the regulatory matters disclosed in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There were no material changes to the disclosures made in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that 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 the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to reasonably ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO), to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.

With the participation of our CEO and CFO, management evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods. In addition, no changes in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting.

It should be noted that any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions designed to obtain reasonable (and not absolute) assurance as to its effectiveness, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals. Notwithstanding this caution, the CEO and CFO have reasonable assurance that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~September 30, 2023.~~March 31, 2024.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

There were no material changes to the risk factors identified in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report. However, we are supplementing the risk factors described in Item 1A of our 2023 Annual Report with the following additional risk factor:

Changes within our senior management and our Board of Directors could create uncertainties and impact our business.

Wehave undergone recent changes in our senior management and in the composition of our Board of Directors.
