Commitments and Contingencies

CBP Matter

During 2019, we informed United States Customs & Border Protection (“CBP”) that we were commencing a voluntary disclosure process with CBP where we would voluntarily disclose to CBP certain product misclassifications and reimburse CBP for any resulting underpayment of duties that were identified as part of a voluntary internal review conducted by the Company. As of the date of this filing, our internal review is substantially complete. The Company recorded an estimated liability of $2.8 million in its Statement of Operations for the year ended December 28, 2019, which represents the Company’s estimated underpayment of duties, after deducting its estimated overpayment of duties, to CBP due to misclassifications over the prior five-year period, which is the applicable statute of limitations, plus applicable interest. The estimated liability of $2.8 million is reported in Other Long-Term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 28, 2020. The liability is reported in Other Long-Term liabilities since the ultimate resolution of the misclassifications with CBP is uncertain and is not expected to be resolved within the next twelve months.

We expect to complete our internal review and make our initial prior disclosure submission to CBP in the first six months of 2020. However, the process of finalizing our prior disclosure with CBP may be iterative. We intend to work cooperatively with CBP in connection with the prior disclosure process and expect to complete the prior disclosure process with CBP and pay all required amounts within 18 months of our initial prior disclosure submission.

Other Contingencies

We are a party to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, such as various claims and legal actions involving contracts, employment claims, competitive practices, intellectual property infringement, product liability claims and other

matters arising out of the conduct of our business. In the opinion of management, none of the actions, individually or in the aggregate, taking into account relevant insurance coverage, would likely have a material financial impact on the Company and we believe the range of reasonably possible losses from current matters, taking into account relevant insurance coverage, is immaterial. However, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of any of these matters could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s cash flows, financial position and results of operations in the period in which any such effects are recorded.
