 internal control over financial reporting and the review of our quarterly financial statements. Audit fees also include fees for services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory financial statement filings. Audit-related fees In fiscal 2024, GT did not perform any assurance or related services for us that were reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements, except as disclosed under the heading “Audit fees” above. In fiscal 2023, GT performed services for us in connection with a registration statement filing. Tax fees In fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, GT performed tax services that were pre-approved by our audit committee, which determined that such services would not impair the independence of the auditor and were consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules on auditor independence. All other fees In fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, GT did not perform any other services for us other than those disclosed under the headings “Audit fees” and “Tax fees” above. Pre-approval policies and procedures Our audit committee pre-approves each engagement for audit or non-audit services before we engage our independent registered public accountants to provide those services. Our audit committee has also delegated to the chairman of the committee the authority to pre-approve audit and non-audit services that the chairman determines in good faith would not impair the independence of our independent registered public accountants. The chairman of our audit committee must notify the other members of the committee of any audit or non-audit service that he pre-approves under this delegation of authority. Any other audit and non-audit services require pre-approval by the entire audit committee. Our management may not engage our independent registered public accountants without explicit approval by our audit committee. None of the services provided by GT for fiscal 2024 was obtained in reliance on the waiver of the pre-approval requirement permitted by SEC regulations.
