Despite the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines, the pandemic remains highly volatile and continues to evolve.

In early January, while the majority of schools brought students back to campus, some schools chose to conduct classes virtually for the beginning of the semester, while other schools chose to delay their start dates (and some schools both delayed the start of the semester and started classes virtually), thus reducing and/or delaying sales later into the quarter or shifting some sales to our fourth quarter. </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The COVID-19 impact on higher education remains a fluid situation.

If economic conditions caused by the pandemic do not recover as currently estimated by management or market factors currently in place change, there could be a further impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from operations. We will continue to assess our operations and will continue to consider the guidance of local governments and our campus partners to how to operate our bookstores in the safest manner for our employees and customers.
