Fiscal period ending 2025-12-31 versus 2024-12-31 — view filing on EDGAR →
Meaningful governance and legal tail-risk relief — remediated material weakness, resolved SEC/DOJ investigations, and cleared securities litigation — is offset by a broad deterioration across regulatory, operational, geopolitical, and technology themes. The regulatory front is the most acute: the company now carries specific, revenue-dependent exposure to 45Z tax credit compliance, new U.S. tax legislation uncertainty (OBBBA/Pillar Two), and sharply expanded environmental and criminal-penalty disclosures. Cybersecurity risk crossed from hypothetical to confirmed, with acknowledged adverse incidents and a disclosed ERP strategy failure compounding the technology picture.
