Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position as of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, our consolidated results of operations, consolidated comprehensive income and our consolidated cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
We adhere to the same accounting policies in the preparation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements as we do in the preparation of our full-year consolidated financial statements. As permitted under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, is based on full-year assumptions. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual effective income tax rates.
3. Accounting Changes and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Changes
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (“ASU No. 2014-09”) which introduced new guidance that established how an entity should measure revenue in connection with its sale of goods and services to a customer based on the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for each of those goods and services. On October 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2014-09 using the modified retrospective transition method. Additionally, in connection with the adoption, we designed changes to our internal control procedures and updated processes to ensure appropriate recognition and presentation of financial information. This adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or on our internal controls over financial reporting. We do not believe that the adoption will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements on an ongoing basis. The comparative periods continue to be presented under the accounting standards in effect during those periods.
In connection with the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09, we now present our sales returns allowance on a gross basis rather than a net liability basis. As such, we recognize a return asset from the right to recover merchandise from customers (included in other current assets) and a return liability from the amount to be returned to the customer (included in accrued liabilities) within our consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, we now recognize revenue for our gift cards not expected to be redeemed (“gift card breakage”) within revenue in our consolidated statements of earnings.
The following tables set forth the impact of adopting this standard on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of earnings as of and for the three months ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands):

See note 4, Revenue Recognition, for additional information in connection with ASU No. 2014-09.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which will require most leases to be reported on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Under the new guidance, the lease liability must be measured initially based on the present value of future lease payments, subject to certain conditions. The right-of-use asset must be measured initially based on the amount of the liability, plus certain initial direct costs. The new guidance further requires that leases be classified at inception as either (a) operating leases or (b) finance leases. For operating leases, periodic expense will generally be flat (straight-line) throughout the life of the lease. For finance leases, periodic expense will decline (similar to capital leases under prior rules) over the life of the lease. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method. For public companies, this standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt this pronouncement on October 1, 2019. We have completed a preliminary assessment of the potential impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2018, adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 would have resulted in recognition of a right-of-use asset in the estimated amount of approximately $525.0 million and a lease liability for a similar amount in our consolidated balance sheet. We are currently in the process of implementing changes to our processes, controls and systems in order to be compliant upon adoption of the new standard. We do not believe adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 will have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. The amount of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability we ultimately recognize may materially differ from this preliminary estimate, including as a result of future organic growth in our business, changes in interest rates, and potential acquisitions.
4. Revenue Recognition
Substantially all of our revenue is derived through the sale of merchandise. Revenue is recognized net of estimated sales returns and sales taxes. We estimate sales returns based on historical data. Additionally, we have assessed all revenue streams for principal versus agent considerations and have concluded we are the principal for all transactions.
See Note 12, Business Segments, for additional information regarding the disaggregation of our sales revenue.
Merchandise Revenues
The majority of our revenue comes from the sale of products in our company-operated stores. These sales generally have one single performance obligation and the revenue is recognized at the point of sale. Discounts and incentives issued at the point of sale to entice a customer to a future purchase are treated as a separate performance obligation. As such, we allocate a portion of the revenue generated from the point of sale to each of the additional performance obligations separately using explicitly stated amounts or our best estimate using historical data.
We also sell merchandise on our online platforms, to our franchisees and by using distributor sales consultants. These sales generally have one single performance obligation and revenue is recognized upon the shipment of the merchandise. Any shipping and handling fees charged to the customer are recognized as revenue, while any shipping and handling costs to get the merchandise shipped is recognized in cost of goods sold.
We do extend credit to certain customers, primarily salon professionals, which generally have 30 day payment terms. Based on the nature of theses receivables, no significant financing component exists.
Gift Cards
The revenue from the sale of our gift cards is recognized at the time the gift card is used to purchase merchandise, which is generally within a year. Our gift cards do not carry expiration dates or impose post-sale fees. Based on historical experience, a certain amount of our gift cards will not be redeemed, also referred to as “gift card breakage.” We recognize revenue related to gift card breakage within revenue in our consolidated statements of earnings over time proportionately to historical redemption patterns. The gift cards are issued and represent liabilities of either of our operating entities, Sally Beauty Supply LLC or Beauty Systems Group LLC, which are both limited liability companies formed in the state of Virginia.
12
Customer Loyalty Rewards
We recently launched our new Sally Beauty Rewards Loyalty Program nationwide during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 to the U.S. and Canada, which enables customers to earn points based on their status for every dollar spent on merchandise purchased in our Sally Beauty Supply (“SBS”) stores and through our sallybeauty.com website. When a specific tier has been reached, a customer will receive a certificate which can be used at any of our U.S. and Canada SBS stores or through our sallybeauty.com website on their next purchase. Based on the rewards loyalty program policies, points expire after twelve months of inactivity and certificates will expire after a specific time period from the date of issuance. Certificates generated from our rewards loyalty program provide a material right to customers and represent a separate performance obligation. Rewards loyalty points are accrued at the standalone value per point, net of estimated breakage, and are included within accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We recognize the revenue when the customer redeems the certificate. Points and certificates are issued by and represent liabilities of Sally Beauty Supply LLC.
The following table shows the amount of our gift card and rewards loyalty program liabilities included in accrued liabilities within our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 (in thousands):

10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
During the three months ended December 31, 2018, we did not purchase or hold any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Designated Cash Flow Hedges
Foreign Currency Forwards
In December 2018, we entered into foreign currency forwards to mitigate the exposure to exchange rate changes on inventory purchases in USD by our foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2018, the notional amount we held through these forwards, based upon exchange rates at December 31, 2018, was as follows (in thousands):

40,817
We record quarterly, net of income tax, the changes in fair value related to the foreign currency forwards into AOCL. As the forwards are exercised, the realized value will be recognized into cost of goods sold based on inventory turns. Based on December 31, 2018 valuations and exchange rates, we expect to reclassify approximately $0.5 million into cost of goods sold over the next 12 months.
In July 2017, we purchased two interest rate caps with an initial aggregate notional amount of $550 million (the “interest rate caps”) to mitigate the exposure to higher interest rates in connection with our term loan B. The interest rate caps are comprised of individual caplets that expire ratably through June 30, 2023 and are designated as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the interest rate caps are recorded quarterly, net of income tax, and are included in AOCL. Over the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify approximately $0.3 million into interest expense, which represents the original value of the expiring caplets.

The effects of our derivative financial instruments on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings were not material for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
11. Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was 22.9% and 3.3%, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2018, our effective tax rate was favorably impacted by lower federal statutory rates when compared to the prior year and a $3.0 million adjustment to our previously recorded transition tax on unrepatriated foreign earnings recorded as a result of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (“U.S. Tax Reform”). For the three months ended December 31, 2017, our effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a net benefit of $22.2 million recorded as a result of the U.S. Tax Reform. For the fiscal year 2019, our U.S. federal statutory tax rate will be 21.0% compared to 24.5% for the prior fiscal year.

In December 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) which provided guidance allowing registrants to record provisional amounts, during a specified measurement period, when the necessary information is not available, prepared or analyzed in reasonable detail to account for the impact of U.S. Tax Reform. As of December 31, 2018, we have completed our analysis on our provisional calculations within the measurement period provided by SAB 118. As a result, during the three months ended December 31, 2018, we identified certain immaterial adjustments to our provisional calculations, including a benefit of $3.0 million related to the transition tax on unremitted earnings of our foreign operations.
In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department has recently released proposed regulations covering the one-time transition tax on unrepatriated foreign earnings, which was enacted as part of the U.S. Tax Reform. Included within the proposed regulations, certain guidance is inconsistent with our interpretation of the enacted tax law. This proposed regulation is not authoritative and is subject to change in the regulatory review process. However, if the proposed regulation is included in the final regulations as drafted, we may be required to reverse $2.5 million of benefit in the quarter the regulations become final.
Beginning in our first quarter of fiscal year 2019, we are subject to taxation on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) earned by certain foreign subsidiaries. We have made the policy election to record this tax as a period cost at the time it is incurred. The impact from GILTI was immaterial for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and is expected to be immaterial for the full fiscal year 2019.

14. Restructuring Plan
2018 Restructuring Plan
In November 2017, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan (the “2018 Restructuring Plan”) focused primarily on significantly improving the profitability of our international businesses, with particular focus on our European operations.
In April 2018, we announced an expansion of the 2018 Restructuring Plan that contained cost reduction initiatives designed to help fund important long-term growth initiatives. The expansion to the 2018 Restructuring Plan included headcount reductions primarily at our corporate headquarters in Denton, Texas. We estimate that we will incur total charges in connection with the expanded 2018 Restructuring Plan of approximately $28 million to $30 million related primarily to employee separation costs and third-party consulting. As of December 31, 2018, we do not anticipate any additional material costs for the 2018 Restructuring Plan.
The liability related to the 2018 Restructuring Plan, which is included in accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets, is as follows (in thousands):

Expenses incurred in the three months ended December 31, 2018 represent costs incurred by SBS ($1.1 million) and corporate ($2.8 million).
15. Commitments and Contingencies
We are involved, from time to time, in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of these matters. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
Data Security Incidents
As previously disclosed, we experienced data security incidents during the fiscal years 2014 and 2015 (together, the “data security incidents”). The data security incidents involved the unauthorized installation of malicious software (“malware”) on our information technology systems, including our point-of-sale systems that may have placed at risk certain payment card data for some transactions. The costs that we have incurred to date in connection with the data security incidents include assessments by payment card networks, professional advisory fees and legal fees relating to investigating and remediating the data security incidents.
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, we received an assessment from a payment card network in connection with the data security incidents. The assessment is based on the network’s claims against the Company’s acquiring banks for costs that it asserts its issuing banks incurred in connection with the data security incidents, including incremental counterfeit fraud losses and non-ordinary course operating expenses, such as card reissuance costs. Our estimated probable loss related to the claims made by payment card networks in connection with the data security incidents is based on currently available information. We dispute the validity of the payment card network’s claims and intend to contest them vigorously.
We may incur additional costs and expenses related to the data security incidents in future periods. These costs and expenses may result from liabilities related to (i) claims by payment card networks, (ii) governmental or third party investigations, proceedings or litigation, (iii) legal and other fees necessary to defend against any potential liabilities or claims, and (iv) further investigation and remediation costs. As of December 31, 2018, the scope of these additional costs and expenses, or a range thereof, beyond amounts management has determined to be probable, cannot be reasonably estimated and, while we do not anticipate that these additional costs and expenses or liabilities would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating results, these additional costs and expenses could be significant.
16. Subsequent Event
On February 5, 2019, we announced that we will be closing distribution facilities in Denton, Texas, and Anchorage, Alaska, by the end of the second quarter and will be closing the distribution center in Lincoln, Nebraska, by the end of third quarter. Simultaneously, we announced that we are searching for a 500,000 square foot location within Oklahoma, Louisiana or Texas for construction of a new
automated and concentrated distribution center which will service SBS stores and e-commerce sales as well as BSG stores, full service sales and e-commerce sales. Additionally, we will also be upgrading our European distribution operations in Ghent, Belgium.

Results of Operations
The Three Months Ended December 31, 2018 compared to the Three Months Ended December 31, 2017
Consolidated. Consolidated net sales include a negative impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates of $6.9 million, or 0.7% of consolidated net sales.
SBS. The decrease in net sales for SBS for the three months ended December 31, 2018, was driven by the negative impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $5.5 million and lower net sales from other sales channels of approximately $6.3 million, partially offset by an increase in SBS same store sales of approximately $6.8 million. Net sales from other sales channels include sales from the net decline in company-operated stores and our non-store channels.
SBS’s experienced lower unit volume (which was caused by lower customer traffic, particularly in Europe, and the reduction in company-operated stores during the last 12 months), partially offset by an increase in average unit prices, resulting from a change in product mix to higher-priced products and a promotional efficiency effort.
BSG. The slight decrease in BSG’s net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2018, was driven by lower sales from net new company-operated stores of $2.2 million, the negative impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $1.4 million and lower net sales from other sales channels of approximately $2.9 million, partially offset by the positive impact from the previously-disclosed Chalut acquisition of approximately $5.1 million and an increase in same store sales of approximately $0.9 million. Net sales from other sales channels include sales to our franchisees and sales by our distributor sales consultants.
The decrease in BSG’s net sales also reflects a decrease in unit volume (notwithstanding the impact of incremental sales from company-operated stores opened or acquired during the last 12 months), partially offset by an increase in average unit prices (resulting primarily from the introduction of certain third-party brands with higher average unit prices in the preceding 12 months).
Consolidated. Consolidated gross profit decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to lower net sales in both reportable segments and a lower gross margin in BSG.
SBS. SBS’s gross profit decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2018, primarily as a result of a lower net sales in our European operations. SBS’s gross margin was flat, but reflected improved gross margins in our U.S. and Canadian operations, offset by weaker margins in our European operations.
BSG. BSG’s gross profit decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2018, primarily as a result of a lower gross margin and lower net sales. BSG’s gross margin decreased primarily as a result of a category mix shift, increased promotional activity and the timing of vendor funding.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Consolidated. Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses decreased primarily as a result of lower compensation and compensation-related expenses, lower advertising expenses and a positive impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 20 basis points to 37.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2018.
SBS. SBS’s selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $6.0 million, or 2.6%, for the three months ended December 31, 2018. This decrease reflects the impact of the 2018 restructuring plan, our recently implemented field structure realignment and store labor hour optimization initiatives, lower advertising expenses of $2.4 million, a positive impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rate of approximately $2.1 million. This decrease was partially offset by higher facility expenses of $1.7 million, higher professional fees of $0.9 million and the impact of the reduction of an estimated casualty loss of $1.3 million during the three months ended December 31, 2017 with no comparable amounts in the current quarter.
BSG. BSG’s selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.1 million, or 1.1%, for the three months ended December 31, 2018, primarily as a result of lower tradeshow expense due to the timing of the events.
Unallocated. Unallocated selling, general and administrative expenses, which represent certain corporate costs that have not been charged to our reporting segments, increased $2.8 million, or 7.8%, for the three months ended December 31, 2018. This increase is primarily from incremental expenses associated with employee benefits.
Restructuring Charges
For the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, we incurred restructuring charges of $4.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively, in connection with the 2018 Restructuring Plan. See Note 14 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information about our restructuring plan.
28
Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense is primarily from higher interest rates on our term loan B variable tranche, partially offset by lower incremental interest expense on our ABL facility. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for additional information.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $19.5 million and $2.9 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.9% and 3.3%, for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was due primarily to the impact of the U.S. Tax Reform during the three months ended December 31, 2017. See Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information about the impact of U.S. Tax Reform on our condensed financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We are highly leveraged and a substantial portion of our liquidity needs will arise from debt service on our outstanding indebtedness and from funding the costs of operations, working capital, capital expenditures, debt repayment and share repurchases. Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) increased $69.2 million, to $733.2 million at December 31, 2018, compared to $663.9 million at September 30, 2018, resulting primarily from increases in cash and cash equivalents and inventory.
At December 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents were $102.8 million. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated growth, we anticipate that existing cash balances (excluding certain amounts permanently invested in connection with foreign operations), funds expected to be generated by operations and funds available under the ABL facility will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements, potential acquisitions, finance anticipated capital expenditures, including information technology upgrades and store remodels, debt repayments and opportunistic share repurchases over the next 12 months. For the foreseeable future, we will prioritize needed investments in our business that we believe will deliver value for shareholders, then focus on measured debt repayment within our ratings guidance and then share repurchases.
We utilize our ABL facility for the issuance of letters of credit, for certain working capital and liquidity needs and to manage normal fluctuations in our operational cash flow. In that regard, we may from time to time draw funds under the ABL facility for general corporate purposes including funding of capital expenditures, acquisitions, interest payments due on our indebtedness, paying down other debt and opportunistic share repurchases. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, the weighted average interest rate on our borrowings under the ABL facility was 5.5%. The amounts drawn are generally paid down with cash provided by our operating activities. As of December 31, 2018, Sally Holdings had $481.4 million available for borrowings under the ABL facility, subject to borrowing base limitations, as reduced by outstanding letters of credit.
Share Repurchase Programs
We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the three months ended December 31, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, we had authorization of approximately $834.1 million of additional potential share repurchases remaining under the 2017 Share Repurchase Program. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, we repurchased and subsequently retired approximately 3.8 million shares of our common stock under Board approved share repurchase programs at an aggregate cost of $64.5 million. We funded these share repurchases with existing cash balances, cash from operations and borrowings under the ABL facility.
Historical Cash Flows
Historically, our primary source of cash has been net funds provided by operating activities and, when necessary, borrowings under our ABL facility. The primary uses of cash have been for share repurchases, capital expenditures, repayments and servicing of long-term debt and acquisitions.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended December 31, 2018 decreased $53.9 million to $50.3 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2017, mainly due to an increase in inventory as a result of the redemption of supply chain issues created by certain of our vendors and our launch of new product lines.
Net Cash Used by Investing Activities
Net cash used by investing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2018 decreased $7.5 million to $24.2 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2017. This change was primarily a result of not having any significant acquisition in the three months ended December 31, 2018.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Financing Activities
The change in financing activities cash flows was primarily a result of not having share repurchases during the three months ended December 31, 2018 as we focus on re-investing in our operations and repaying outstanding indebtedness.

Long-Term Debt
At December 31, 2018, we had $1,793.1 million in debt, not including capital leases, unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts, in the aggregate, of $19.3 million. Our debt consisted of $950.0 million of senior notes outstanding and a term loan B with an outstanding principal balance of $843.1 million. There were no borrowings outstanding under our ABL facility as of December 31, 2018.
We are currently in compliance with the agreements and instruments governing our debt, including our financial covenants.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Controls Evaluation and Related CEO and CFO Certifications. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2018. The controls evaluation was conducted by our Disclosure Committee, comprised of senior representatives from our finance, accounting, internal audit, and legal departments under the supervision of our CEO and CFO.
Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act, are attached as exhibits to this Quarterly Report. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Scope of the Controls Evaluation. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of their objectives and design, our implementation of the controls and procedures and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify whether we had any data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, was being undertaken if needed. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Many of the components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated by our internal audit department, by our legal department and
by personnel in our finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and to maintain them as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.
Conclusions regarding Disclosure Controls. Based on the required evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of December 31, 2018, we maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
31
We are subject to a number of U.S., federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as the laws and regulations applicable in each foreign country or jurisdiction in which we do business. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, the composition, packaging, labeling and safety of the products we sell, the methods we use to sell these products and the methods we use to import these products. We believe that we are in material compliance with such laws and regulations, although no assurance can be provided that this will remain true going forward.
