The Company is continuing to assess the impact of these material weaknesses and whether any other material weaknesses exist.

On March 31, 2023, the Company announced that it acknowledged the existence of an additional material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, with regards to the design and maintenance of effective controls in response to the risks of material misstatement related to the processes for recording income taxes. The Company expects to provide additional information in its upcoming public reports.
