| Note 12. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Litigation: The Company is occasionally involved in claims and disputes arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company insures certain business risks where possible to mitigate the financial impact of individual claims and establishes reserves for an estimate of any probable cost of settlement or other disposition.
401(k) Profit Sharing Plan: The Company has an employee benefit plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering all employees who are 21 years of age or older. The Company matches each employee’s salary reduction contribution, not to exceed four percent of annual compensation. Total employer contributions to this plan for fiscal 2025 and 2024 were $743,000 and $598,000, respectively.
Employment Agreements: The Company is party to employment agreements with its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, as may be amended from time to time. These agreements provide these officers with, among other things, months of base salary upon a termination of employment without “Cause” or in the event the employee resigns for “Good Reason.” The employment agreements also provide these officers with, among other things, increased severance payments in connection with a termination that occurs within months of a “Change in Control,” as defined in the respective employment agreements.

About Commitments Disclosures
Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.
Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
