3, 2024, trade groups filed a petition for a rehearing with the Fifth Circuit en banc. The Fifth Circuit did not grant the petition and the SDL Rule went into effect on March 30, 2025. However, on March 28, 2025, the CFPB announced that enforcement of the SDL Rule will not be a priority and that the agency may seek new rulemaking to narrow its scope. At this time, the Company does not believe that the implementation of the SDL Rule will have a material impact on the Company’s future results of operations or financial condition. 

In addition, the United States, China, Canada, Mexico, European Union and other countries have imposed, or threatened to impose, new or enhanced tariffs, quotas, trade barriers and other restrictions on imports into their respective territories. Numerous trade restrictions are currently in effect and such restrictions, coupled with the risk of retaliatory steps taken in response to such restrictions, could potentially serve to depress economic activity generally in the United States, adversely affecting consumers and contributing to general market volatility.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Company uses certain financial calculations such as adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and constant currency results as factors in the measurement and evaluation of the Company’s operating performance and period-over-period growth. The Company derives these financial calculations on the basis of methodologies other than GAAP, primarily by excluding from a comparable GAAP measure certain items the Company does not consider to be representative of its actual operating performance. These financial calculations are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the SEC rules. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in operating its business because management believes they are less susceptible to variances in actual operating performance that can result from the excluded items, other infrequent charges and currency fluctuations. The Company presents these financial measures to investors because management believes they are useful to investors in evaluating the primary factors that drive the Company’s core operating performance and provide greater transparency into the Company’s results of operations. However, items that are excluded and other adjustments and assumptions that are made in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial measures. Further, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations,
