Environmental Challenges
- Increased frequency and severity of storms, floods, fires, fog, mist, freezing conditions, sea-level rise, and other climate-related events could affect operations, infrastructure, and financial results.
- Continued periods of significant disruption in the supply of aircraft fuel could have a significant negative impact on consumer demand, operating results, and liquidity.
- System failures, defects, errors, or vulnerabilities in our website, applications, backend systems, or other technology systems or those of third-party technology providers could harm our reputation and brand and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
- Cyber-based attack of information technology systems could disrupt ability to deliver services to customers and could lead to increased overhead costs, decreased sales, and harm to reputation.
- Material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.
Mitigation Strategies
- Implementing SOX compliance software to assist in the overall evaluation and documentation of the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.
- Developing and refining disclosure controls and other procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
- Improving internal control over financial reporting.
