Item 4. Controls and Procedures

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Based on evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to (i) provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms, and (ii) ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The JDE Peet's Acquisition, which was completed on April 1, 2026, had a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2026. The JDE Peet's Acquisition also resulted in material changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act). We are in the process of designing and integrating policies, processes, operations, technology, and other components of internal controls over financial reporting of JDE Peet's. Management will monitor the implementation of new controls and test the operating effectiveness when instances are available in future periods.

Under guidelines established by the SEC, companies are allowed to exclude an acquired business from management's report on internal control over financial reporting for the first year subsequent to the acquisition while integrating the acquired operations. Accordingly, management will exclude JDE Peet's from its annual report on internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2026.
