 has sole authority to appoint, retain, compensate, oversee, and terminate our independent auditor. In addition, the Audit / Finance Committee evaluates and ensures the rotation of the lead audit partner at our independent auditor and will, if it deems it advisable, consider the rotation of the audit firm. The Audit / Finance Committee has appointed KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as our independent auditor for fiscal 2026 to conduct the audit of our financial statements. KPMG LLP has conducted the audits of our financial statements since fiscal 2006. Since that time, five different partners of the firm have served as the audit lead. The Audit / Finance Committee and the Board request that the shareholders ratify this appointment. Representatives from KPMG LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. The representatives will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions. If shareholders do not ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent auditor, the Audit / Finance Committee will reconsider the appointment. Even if the appointment of KPMG LLP is ratified, the Audit / Finance Committee may appoint a different independent auditor at any time if, in its discretion, it determines that such a change would be in the Company’s and its shareholders’ best interests.
