Impact of Macroeconomic Trends on Business

Changing macroeconomic factors, including inflation, interest rates, and overall consumer confidence with respect to current and future economic conditions, have directly impacted our sales in the second quarter of 2023 as discretionary consumer spending levels and shopping behavior fluctuate with these factors. During the first half of 2023, we have responded to these factors by taking appropriate pricing, promotional and other actions to stimulate customer demand. These factors are expected to continue to have an impact on our business, results of operations, our growth and financial condition.  Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has had and may continue to have a materially adverse impact on the macroeconomic environment.
