Key Details

• Reporting period covered: fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 28, 2025.

Why It Matters
This Form 8-K is the company's official SEC disclosure that its Q4 and full-year 2025 financial results are available; investors should review the furnished press release (Exhibit 99.1) for specific figures on revenue, earnings, and any management commentary or outlook. Because the release is furnished rather than filed, it’s reportable information but not subject to certain Section 18 liabilities.
