NOTE 18—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

We had no material off-balance sheet commitments as of January 31, 2026.

Contingencies

We are subject to contingencies, including in connection with lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of our business. These disputes are increasing in number as we expand our business and provide new product and service offerings, such as restaurants and hospitality, and as we enter new markets and legal jurisdictions and face increased complexity related to compliance and regulatory requirements. In addition, we are subject to governmental and regulatory examinations, information requests, and investigations from time to time at the state and federal levels.

We currently face certain legal proceedings that involve complex litigation, including class action cases, matters related to our employment practices, the application of state wage-and-hour laws, product liability and other causes of action. We have faced similar litigation in the past. Due to the inherent difficulty of predicting the course of complex legal actions, including class-action allegations, such as the eventual scope, duration or outcome, we may be unable to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome arising from such matters. Our assessment of these legal proceedings, as well as other lawsuits, could change based upon the discovery of facts that are not presently known or developments during the course of the litigation. We have settled certain class action and other cases but continue to defend a variety of legal actions and our estimates of our exposure in such cases may evolve over time. Accordingly, the ultimate costs to resolve litigation, including class action cases, may be substantially higher or lower than our estimates.

With respect to such contingencies, we review the need for any loss contingency reserves and establish reserves when, in the opinion of our senior leadership team, it is probable that a matter would result in liability, and the amount of loss, if any, can be reasonably estimated. Loss contingencies determined to be probable and estimable are recorded in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets (refer to Note 9—Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities). These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to each matter. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of certain matters, particularly in cases in which claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages, it may not be possible to determine whether a liability has been incurred or to reasonably estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case no reserve is established until that time. When and to the extent that we do establish a reserve, there can be no assurance that any such recorded liability for estimated losses will be for the appropriate amount, and actual losses could be higher or lower than what we accrue from time to time. Although we believe that the ultimate resolution of our current legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements, the outcome of legal matters is subject to inherent uncertainty.

Although we are self-insured or maintain deductibles in the United States for workers’ compensation, general liability and product liability up to predetermined amounts, above which third-party insurance applies, depending on the facts and circumstances of the underlying claims, coverage under these or other of our insurance policies may not be available. We may elect not to renew certain insurance coverage or renewal of coverage may not be available or may be prohibitively expensive. Even if we believe coverage does apply under our insurance programs, our insurance carriers may dispute coverage based on the underlying facts and circumstances.

The outcome of any contingencies, including lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal proceedings, could result in unexpected expenses and liability that could adversely affect our operations. In addition, any legal proceedings in which we are involved or claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of our senior leadership team’s time, result in the diversion of significant operational resources, and require changes to our business operations, policies and practices. Legal costs related to such matters are expensed as incurred.
