Safe Harbor Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including the company’s 2023 estimated unaudited financial results, including revenue, gross profit, gross margin and cash burn. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: actual results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023; the year-end close process and audit of the company’s financial statements; risks and uncertainties regarding the company’s ability to successfully consummate and complete a plan of reorganization under Chapter 11; the company’s ability to continue operating in the ordinary course while the Chapter 11 cases are pending; potential adverse effects of the Chapter 11 cases on the company’s business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations; and the other risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company’s annual and quarterly periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the company's estimated unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023 prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and disclosed in this press release, the company is providing several non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items that are required by GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in evaluating the company’s ongoing operating results and trends. Management uses such non-GAAP information to manage the company’s business and monitor its performance.
Other companies, including companies in the same industry, may not use the same non-GAAP measures or may calculate these metrics in a different manner than management or may use other financial measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of these non-GAAP measures as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, the company's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the non-GAAP reconciliations provided in the tables below.
