Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which may be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases, include statements relating to: our business strategies and plans; products, gaming and entertainment; anticipated cost savings; expected debt repayments and share repurchases; expected impact of tariffs or refunds thereof; anticipated impact of moving our Rhode Island operations to Boston, Massachusetts; expectations relating to the impact of unauthorized access to the Company’s network, including on our financial condition and results of operations, findings from our investigation into the unauthorized access, the effectiveness of our containment and remediation efforts, costs and expenses and any insurance recoveries; expected impact of newly issued accounting pronouncements and tax legislation; financial targets; and expectations for our future performance. Our actual actions or results may differ materially from those expected or anticipated in the forward-looking statements due to both known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to:

  • our ability to successfully implement and execute on our Playing to Win business strategy;

  • our ability to successfully compete in the play industry and further develop our digital gaming, licensing and consumer products businesses and partnerships;

  • our ability to continually introduce new and innovative products that are accepted by consumers, particularly for brands such as Magic: The Gathering in which we have seen an increasing concentration of our sales and profits;

  • risks associated with the imposition, threat, or uncertainty of tariffs, including any possible refunds of tariffs, in markets in which we operate; imposition of tariffs could increase our product costs and other costs of doing business, result in higher prices of our products, impact consumer spending, lower our revenues, result in delays or reductions in purchases from our customers, result in goodwill impairments, reduce earnings and otherwise have an adverse impact on our business;

  • risks associated with international operations, such as: conflict in territories in which we operate or which affect areas in which we operate such as the recent conflict with Iran, which could impact, among other things, shipping timing, oil prices and other product and raw material costs and consumer spending; currency conversion; currency fluctuations; quotas; shipping delays or difficulties; border adjustment taxes, tariffs or other protectionist measures; and other factors impacting the territories in which we operate;

  • risk or disruption to our business our inability to protect our assets and intellectual property, including as a result of infringement, theft, misappropriation, cyber-attacks or other acts compromising the integrity of our assets or intellectual property or systems;

  • risks associated with unauthorized access to our network we recently experienced, including the duration and magnitude of operational disruption; the effectiveness of our response; the impact of such unauthorized access on our business, operations, financial results, and financial reporting; and any further business disruptions from such unauthorized access and increased costs relating to such unauthorized access, including from any legal proceedings;

  • risks related to political, economic and public health conditions or regulatory changes in the markets in which we and our customers, partners, licensees, suppliers and manufacturers operate, such as inflation, fluctuating interest rates, tariffs, higher commodity prices, labor strikes, labor costs or transportation costs, or outbreaks of illness or disease, the occurrence of which could create work slowdowns, delays or shortages in production or shipment of products, increases in costs, reduced purchasing power or less discretionary income, or losses and delays in revenue and earnings;

  • uncertain and unpredictable global and regional economic conditions impacting one or more of the markets in which we sell products, which can result in higher prices for our products or consumer necessities and can otherwise negatively impact our customers and consumers, result in lower employment levels, consumer discretionary income, retailer inventories and spending, including lower spending on purchases of our products;

  • our ability to transform our business and capabilities to address the changing global consumer landscape, including evolving demographics for our products and advancements in emerging technologies, such as the integration of artificial intelligence into our product development, marketing strategies, and consumer engagement, and the associated risks such as evolving regulatory standards, implementation challenges, and third-party dependencies on such technologies;

  • our ability to design, develop, manufacture, and ship products on a timely, cost-effective and profitable basis;

  • the concentration of our customers, potentially increasing the negative impact to our business of difficulties experienced by any of our customers or changes in their purchasing or selling patterns;

  • our dependence on third-party relationships, including with third-party partners, manufacturers, distributors, studios, content producers, licensors, licensees, and outsourcers, which creates reliance on others and loss of control;

  • risks relating to the concentration of manufacturing for many of our products in the People’s Republic of China, which include the risks associated with increased tariffs imposed on trade between China and the U.S., and our ability to successfully diversify sourcing of our products to reduce reliance on sources of supply in China;

  • the success of our key partner brands, including the ability to secure, maintain and extend agreements with our key partners or the risk of delays, increased costs or difficulties associated with any of our or our partners’ planned digital applications or media initiatives;

  • our ability to attract and retain talented and diverse employees;

  • our business could be adversely affected by challenges and disruptions arising from the loss of skills, knowledge or expertise, and from uncertainty regarding the continued employment of key personnel, particularly as a result of recent workforce reductions and the planned relocation of our Rhode Island operations to Boston, Massachusetts;

  • our ability to realize the benefits of cost-savings and efficiency and/or revenue and operating profit enhancing initiatives;

  • risks relating to the impairment and/or write-offs related to businesses, products and/or content we acquire, develop and/or produce;

  • the risk that acquisitions, dispositions and other investments we complete may not provide us with the benefits we expect, or the realization of such benefits may be significantly delayed or reduced;

  • fluctuations in our business due to seasonality;

  • the risk of product recalls or product liability suits and costs associated with product safety regulations;

  • the impact of litigation or arbitration decisions or settlement actions;

  • the bankruptcy or other lack of success of one or more of our significant retailers, licensees and other partners; and

  • other risks and uncertainties as may be detailed in our public announcements and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.

For a detailed discussion of these and other risks, uncertainties and factors, see Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”), as well as Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this report.

The statements contained herein are based on our current beliefs and expectations. We undertake no obligation to make any revisions to the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q or to update them to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Form 10-Q.
