In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company reported a net loss. In periods in which the Company recognizes a net loss, the Company excludes the impact of outstanding stock awards from the diluted loss per share calculation, as its inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.

As of June 27, 2026 and June 28, 2025, there were no outstanding stock options and 39,543 outstanding stock options, respectively, with exercise prices in excess of the average market price of common stock during the respective periods. These options were anti-dilutive and, accordingly, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.
