1. Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business & Basis of Presentation

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended April 2, 2022 of Sleep Number Corporation and our 100%-owned subsidiaries (Sleep Number or the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Our historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period. In addition, based on the duration and severity of the current global situation involving the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine and other external factors, including but not limited to general economic conditions, inflation, consumer confidence, store restrictions mandated by federal, state or local authorities and global supply chain disruptions, the extent to which these external factors will impact our business and our consolidated financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022 and other recent filings with the SEC.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. In addition, during the current environment involving external factors such as COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine, predicting future events will be especially challenging for management. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods and could be material. Our critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sleep Number Corporation and our 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Fair Value Measurements

At April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, we had $18 million and $19 million, respectively, of debt and equity securities that fund our deferred compensation plan and are classified in other non-current assets. We also had corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities of $18 million and $19 million at April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively, which are included in other non-current liabilities. The majority of the debt and equity securities are Level 1 as they trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable us to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. Unrealized gains/(losses) on the debt and equity securities offset those associated with the corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities.

Definite-lived Intangible Assets

The gross carrying amount of our developed technologies was $19 million at April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022. Accumulated amortization was $16 million at April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022. Amortization expense for both the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021, was $0.5 million.

5. Credit Agreement

As of April 2, 2022, our credit facility had a total commitment amount of $825 million. The credit facility is for general corporate purposes, to meet our seasonal working capital requirements and to repurchase our stock. The credit agreement includes an accordion feature which allows us to increase the amount of the credit facility from $825 million to $1.2 billion, subject to lenders’ approval. The credit agreement provides the lenders with a collateral security interest in substantially all of our assets and those of our subsidiaries and requires us to comply with, among other things, a maximum leverage ratio (4.5x) and a minimum interest coverage ratio (3.0x). Under the terms of the credit agreement, we pay a variable rate of interest and a commitment fee based on our leverage ratio. The credit agreement matures in December 2026. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of April 2, 2022.

6. Leases

We lease our retail, office and manufacturing space under operating leases which, in addition to the minimum lease payments, may require payment of a proportionate share of the real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses. While our local market development approach generally results in long-term participation in given markets, our retail store leases generally provide for an initial lease term of five to 10 years. Our office and manufacturing leases provide for an initial lease term of up to 15 years. In addition, our mall-based retail store leases may require payment of variable rent based on net sales in excess of certain thresholds. Certain leases may contain options to extend the term of the original lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Lease options are included in the lease term only if exercise is reasonably certain at lease commencement. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. We also lease vehicles and certain equipment under operating leases with an initial lease term of three to five years.

Our operating lease costs include facility, vehicle and equipment lease costs, but exclude variable lease costs. Operating lease costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, after consideration of rent escalations and rent holidays. The lease term for purposes of the calculation begins on the earlier of the lease commencement date or the date we take possession of the property. During lease renewal negotiations that extend beyond the original lease term, we estimate straight-line rent expense based on current market conditions. Variable lease costs are recorded when it is probable the cost has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Future payments for real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses for which we are obligated are not included in operating lease costs.

At April 2, 2022, our finance right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were not significant.

Legal Proceedings

We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements with respect to any of these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. If a material loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable, and may be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed. With respect to currently pending legal proceedings, we have not established an estimated range of reasonably possible material losses either because we believe that we have valid defenses to claims asserted against us, the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable us to establish an estimate, or the potential loss is not material. We currently do not expect the outcome of pending legal proceedings to have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Litigation, however, is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that the ultimate outcome of one or more claims asserted against us could adversely impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We expense legal costs as incurred.

On December 14, 2021, Steamfitters Local 449 Pension & Retirement Security Funds filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between February 18, 2021 and July 20, 2021, inclusive, against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach and David Callen. Plaintiff alleges material misstatements and omissions in certain of Sleep Number’s public disclosures during the purported class period, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, reasonable costs and expenses and equitable/injunctive or other relief as deemed appropriate by the Court. We believe these claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend the matter.

13. COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted our 2021 and 2022 financial performance. In the first quarter of 2021, even with the COVID-19 challenges, we generated strong demand and financial performance. In the first quarter of 2022, our financial performance was impacted by: (i) the disruptive flow of semiconductor chips which affected our ability to deliver products to our customers and suppressed consumer confidence; (ii) incremental costs from labor and material inflation, and expediting costs resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages; and (iii) increased investments in our long- and near-term innovations and demand drivers, partly offset by cost containment actions. The pandemic's future effects on our global supply chain and the potential for supply disruption (e.g., the lack or slowing of critical components caused by labor shortages or government-mandated work closures), effects on consumer demand and effects on our ongoing financial performance remains uncertain. See Part II, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part II: Item 1A. Risk Factors for additional discussion on the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on our business.

COVID-19 Pandemic - Impact on our Business

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted our 2021 and 2022 financial performance. In the first quarter of 2021, even with the COVID-19 challenges, we generated strong demand and financial performance. In the first quarter of 2022, our financial performance was impacted by: (i) the disruptive flow of semiconductor chips which affected our ability to deliver products to our customers and suppressed consumer confidence; (ii) incremental costs from labor and material inflation, and expediting costs resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages; and (iii) increased investments in our long- and near-term innovations and demand drivers, partly offset by cost containment actions. The pandemic's future effects on our global supply chain and the potential for supply disruption (e.g., the lack or slowing of critical components caused by labor shortages or government-mandated work closures), effects on consumer demand and effects on our ongoing financial performance remains uncertain. See Part II, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part II: Item 1A. Risk Factors for additional discussion on the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on our business.

Results of Operations

Quarterly and Year-to-Date Results

Quarterly and year-to-date operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including increases or decreases in sales, timing, amount and effectiveness of advertising expenditures, changes in sales return rates or warranty experience, timing of investments in growth initiatives and infrastructure, timing of store openings/closings and related expenses, changes in net sales resulting from changes in our store base, timing of new product introductions and related expenses, timing of promotional offerings, competitive factors, changes in commodity costs, disruptions in global supplies or third-party service providers, seasonality of retail and bedding industry sales, consumer confidence and general economic conditions. In addition, based on the duration and severity of the current global situation involving the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine and other external factors, including but not limited to general economic conditions, inflation, consumer confidence, store restrictions mandated by federal, state or local authorities and global supply chain disruptions, the extent to which these external factors will impact our business and our consolidated financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Therefore, our historical results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for any future period.

Highlights

Financial highlights for the three months ended April 2, 2022 were as follows:

•Net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2022 decreased 7% to $527 million, compared with $568 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021. Demand was negatively impacted by acute macro factors including the COVID-19 variant in January and the war in Ukraine in March. Global supply constraints continued to impact our delivered net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2022.
•The 7% net sales decrease consisted of an 11% comparable sales decline in Total Retail offset by sales from 46 net new stores opened in the past 12 months that added 4 percentage points (ppt.) of growth. For additional details, see the components of total net sales change on page 15.
•Sales per store (sales for stores open at least one year, Total Retail, including online, phone and chat) on a trailing twelve-month basis for the period ended April 2, 2022 totaled $3.5 million, 9% higher than the same period last year.
•Operating income for the three months ended April 2, 2022 was $4 million, compared with $76 million in the prior-year period. The $72 million decrease in operating income was driven by the 7% decrease in net sales constrained by semiconductor chip supply, a 7.3 ppt. increase in our operating expenses rate, and a 5.3 ppt. decrease in our gross profit rate that was negatively affected by cost pressures and an unfavorable mix of smart bed deliveries as constrained by semiconductor chip supply.
•The 5.3 ppt. gross profit rate decrease was primarily due to incremental costs from labor and material inflation, and inefficiencies resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages, in addition to the deleveraging impact of the 7% net sales decline and a less favorable sales mix of lower-margin products. See the Gross profit discussion on page 17 for additional details.
•The 7.3 ppt. increase in our operating expenses rate was partially due to the deleveraging impact of the 7% net sales decline. In addition, we continued to prioritize investments in near- and long-term growth drivers, including $16 million of R&D expenses during the three months ended April 2, 2022, 23% more than the same period one year ago.
•Net income for the three months ended April 2, 2022 decreased to $2 million, compared with $67 million for the same period one year ago. Net income per diluted share was $0.09, compared with $2.51 last year.
•We achieved a return on invested capital (ROIC) of 20.5% on a trailing twelve-month basis for the period ended April 2, 2022, compared with 27.6% for the comparable period one year ago.
•Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended April 2, 2022 decreased to $25 million, compared with $112 million for the same period one year ago.
•As of April 2, 2022, we had $413 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and available net liquidity of $406 million.

Comparison of Three Months Ended April 2, 2022 with Three Months Ended April 3, 2021

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2022 decreased by $41 million, or 7%, to $527 million, compared with $568 million for the same period one year ago. Demand was negatively impacted by acute macro factors including the COVID-19 variant in January and war in Ukraine in March. Global supply constraints negatively impacted our delivered net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2022.

The 7% net sales decrease consisted primarily of an 11% comparable sales decline in Total Retail offset by sales from 46 net new stores opened in the past 12 months that added 4 percentage points (ppt.) of growth. For additional details, see the components of total net sales change on page 15.

The $41 million net sales decline compared with the same period one year ago was comprised of the following: (i) a $59 million decrease in our Total Retail comparable net sales; and (ii) an $18 million increase from net store openings. Total Retail smart bed unit sales decreased 5% compared with the prior year. Total Retail average revenue per smart bed unit decreased by 2% to $4,905, compared with $5,030 in the prior-year period and was negatively impacted by a less favorable sales mix due to supply constraints impacting smart bed deliveries at the higher end of our product line.

Gross profit

Gross profit of $302 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022 decreased by $54 million, or 15%, compared with $356 million for the same period one year ago. The gross profit rate declined to 57.3% of net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with 62.6% for the prior-year comparable period.

The current-year gross profit rate decrease of 5.3 ppt. was mainly due to: (i) incremental costs from labor and material inflation and inefficiencies resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages (4.2 ppt.); (ii) the deleverage from the 7% net sales decrease; and (iii) a less favorable sales mix of lower-margin products due to supply constraints impacting smart bed deliveries at the higher end of our product line. These pressures were partially offset by pricing actions taken over the past twelve months (1.7 ppt.). In addition, our gross profit rate will fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of other factors, including return and exchange costs, and changes in performance-based incentive compensation.

Sales and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended April 2, 2022 were $240 million, or 45.6% of net sales, compared with $224 million, or 39.4% of net sales, for the same period one year ago. The current-year sales and marketing expenses rate increase of 6.2 ppt. was primarily due to: (i) the deleveraging impact of the 7% net sales decrease as constrained by semiconductor chip supply; (ii) addition of 46 net new stores; and (iii) increased marketing expenses resulting from a 9% increase in media expenses.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative (G&A) expenses totaled $41 million, or 7.8% of net sales, for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $43 million, or 7.5% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The $1.3 million decrease in G&A expenses consisted mainly of: (i) a $6.7 million decrease in employee compensation primarily resulting from a year-over-year decrease in Company-wide performance-based incentive compensation; offset by (ii) a $5.4 million increase in other miscellaneous expenses, including technology investments and travel expenses (minimal travel in the prior year due to the pandemic). The G&A expenses rate increased by 0.3 ppt. in the current-year period, compared with the same period one year ago due to the deleveraging impact of the 7% net sales decrease, in addition to the items discussed above.

Research and development expenses

Research and development (R&D) expenses increased by 23% to $16 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $13 million for the same period last year as we continued to prioritize our long-term innovation initiatives.

SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION

Interest expense

Interest expense, net increased to $2 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $1 million for the same period one year ago. The $1 million increase was mainly driven by a higher level of outstanding borrowings during the three months ended April 2, 2022 compared with the same period in 2021, and a higher weighted-average interest rate compared with the same period one year ago.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense totaled $0.2 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $8.8 million last year. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 2, 2022 was 9.4%, compared with 11.7% for the comparable period last year. Discrete tax benefits, primarily stock-based compensation excess tax benefits, were $0.4 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $10.0 million in last year’s first quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Managing our liquidity and capital resources is an important part of our commitment to deliver superior shareholder value over time. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities and cash available under our $825 million revolving credit facility. As of April 2, 2022, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing other than our $6 million in outstanding letters of credit. The cash generated from ongoing operations and cash available under our revolving credit facility are expected to be adequate to maintain operations, and fund anticipated expansion, strategic initiatives and contractual obligations such as lease payments and capital commitments for new retail stores for the foreseeable future.

Changes in cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended April 2, 2022 primarily consisted of $25 million of cash provided by operating activities and a $45 million net increase in short-term borrowings, offset by $20 million of cash used to purchase property and equipment, and $51 million of cash used to repurchase our common stock (based on settlement, $42 million under our Board-approved share repurchase program and $9 million in connection with the vesting of employee restricted stock grants).

Significant components of the year-over-year change in cash provided by operating activities included: (i) a $65 million decrease in net income for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with the same period one year ago; (ii) a $14 million fluctuation in prepaid expenses and other assets due to both periods being impacted by the timing of rent payments and a reduction in business activities due to the pandemic; (iii) a $12 million change in other accruals and liabilities due to the timing of payments; (iv) a $10 million fluctuation in accounts payable with both periods impacted by business changes and timing of payments; and (v) a $9 million fluctuation in the amount of compensation and benefits accrued and timing of the related payments resulting from year-over-year changes in Company-wide performance-based incentive compensation.

Net cash used in investing activities to purchase property and equipment was $20 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $12 million for the same period one year ago. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the timing of cash flows associated with new and remodeled stores’ property and equipment, and investments in information technology.
Net cash used in financing activities was $6 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared with $102 million for the same period last year. During the three months ended April 2, 2022, we repurchased $51 million of

our stock (based on settlement dates, $42 million under our Board-approved share repurchase program and $9 million in connection with the vesting of employee restricted stock awards), compared with $179 million during the same period one year ago. Short-term borrowings increased by $45 million during the current-year period due to a $31 million increase in borrowings under our revolving credit facility to $413 million and a $14 million increase in book overdrafts which are included in the net change in short-term borrowings. Short-term borrowings increased by $74 million during the prior-year period due to a $71 million increase in borrowings under our credit facility to $315 million and a $3 million increase in book overdrafts.
Under our Board-approved share repurchase program, we repurchased 0.7 million shares at a cost of $42 million (based on trade dates, an average of $63.95 per share) during the three months ended April 2, 2022. During the three months ended April 3, 2021, we repurchased 1.2 million shares at a cost of $167 million (based on trade dates, an average of $136.27 per share). There is no expiration date governing the period over which we can repurchase shares. At April 2, 2022, there is $361 million remaining authorization under our Board-approved $600 million share repurchase program.

As of April 2, 2022, we had $413 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We also had $6 million in outstanding letters of credit. Net liquidity available under our credit facility was $406 million at April 2, 2022. The credit agreement provides the lenders with a collateral security interest in substantially all of our assets and those of our subsidiaries and requires us to comply with, among other things, a maximum leverage ratio (4.5x) and a minimum interest coverage ratio (3.0x). Our leverage ratio as defined in our credit agreement was 3.4x as of April 2, 2022. Under the terms of the credit agreement, we pay a variable rate of interest and a commitment fee based on our leverage ratio. The credit agreement is for general corporate purposes, to meet our seasonal working capital requirements and to repurchase our stock. As of April 2, 2022, the weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under the credit facility was 2.2% and we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

We have an agreement with Synchrony Bank to offer qualified customers revolving credit arrangements to finance their purchases from us (Synchrony Agreement). The Synchrony Agreement contains financial covenants consistent with our credit facility, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. As of April 2, 2022, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

Under the terms of the Synchrony Agreement, Synchrony Bank sets the minimum acceptable credit ratings, the interest rates, fees and all other terms and conditions of the customer accounts, including collection policies and procedures, and is the owner of the accounts. As the accounts are owned by Synchrony Bank, at no time are the accounts purchased or acquired from us. We are not liable to Synchrony Bank for our customers’ credit defaults.

Non-GAAP Data Reconciliations

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)

We define earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) as net income plus: income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and asset impairments. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful indicator of our financial performance and our ability to generate cash from operating activities. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions used by other companies. The table below reconciles Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to the comparable GAAP financial measure.

Our Adjusted EBITDA calculations are as follows (in thousands):

Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
(dollars in thousands)

ROIC is a financial measure we use to determine how efficiently we deploy our capital. It quantifies the return we earn on our invested capital. Management believes ROIC is also a useful metric for investors and financial analysts. We compute ROIC as outlined below. Our definition and calculation of ROIC may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions and calculations used by other companies. The tables below reconcile net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) and total invested capital, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to the comparable GAAP financial measures:

___________________________
(1)Rent expense is added back to operating income to show the impact of owning versus leasing the related assets.
(2)Depreciation is based on the average of the last five fiscal quarters' ending capitalized operating lease obligations (see note 5) for the respective reporting periods with an assumed thirty-year useful life. This life assumption is based on our long-term participation in given markets though specific retail location lease commitments are generally 5 to 10 years at inception. This is subtracted from operating income to illustrate the impact of owning versus leasing the related assets.
(3)Reflects annual effective income tax rates, before discrete adjustments, of 23.7% and 23.9% for 2022 and 2021, respectively.
(4)Long-term debt includes existing finance lease liabilities.
(5)A multiple of eight times annual rent expense is used as an estimate for capitalizing our operating lease obligations. The methodology utilized aligns with the methodology of a nationally recognized credit rating agency.
(6)Average invested capital represents the average of the last five fiscal quarters' ending invested capital balances.
(7)ROIC equals NOPAT divided by average invested capital.

Note - Our ROIC calculation and data are considered non-GAAP financial measures and are not in accordance with, or preferable to, GAAP financial data. However, we are providing this information as we believe it facilitates analysis of the Company's financial performance by investors and financial analysts.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

As of April 2, 2022, we were not involved in any unconsolidated special purpose entity transactions. Other than our $6 million in outstanding letters of credit, we do not have any off-balance-sheet financing.

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations since the end of fiscal 2021. See Note 5, Credit Agreement, of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding our credit agreement. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022 for additional information regarding our other contractual obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies

We discuss our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since the end of fiscal 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to changes in market-based short-term interest rates that will impact our net interest expense. If overall interest rates were one percentage point higher than current rates, our annual net income would decrease by $3.1 million based on the $413 million of borrowings under our credit facility at April 2, 2022. We do not manage the interest-rate volatility risk of borrowings under our credit facility through the use of derivative instruments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusions Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
