| (1) Represents adjustments and charges associated with our 2023 product recalls. This presentation represents a change from the non-GAAP approach we adopted with our fourth quarter of 2025 results. Please see“Non-GAAP Financial Measures” above for more information. (2) During the second quarter of 2026, we concluded that recovery of tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) was probable. The total net benefit of the IEEPA tariff refund was $4.7 million for the third quarter of 2026, recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold, and $50.3 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2026, consisting of a $47.4 million net benefit recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold and $2.9 million of interest income. Of this amount, our non-GAAP results exclude $34.4 million related to the 2025 net tariff impact and $2.9 million of interest income.
