Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating such controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2024.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. However, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based on the guidelines established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 Framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

On June 3, 2024, we completed our acquisition of Elevated Facility Services Group (Elevated); see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. We are currently integrating Elevated into our internal control framework and processes and, pursuant to the SEC's guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment in the year of acquisition, the scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 does not include Elevated. The operations of Elevated are 7.5% of our consolidated assets and 1.7% of our consolidated revenue as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively.

Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.

KPMG LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has issued its report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, which is included in Part II, Item 8 of this annual report on Form 10-K.

2024 Remediation Activities

In its 2023 Item 9A filed on Form 10-K, management identified material weaknesses over user access controls related to an information technology system resulting from insufficient risk assessment and the identification and risk assessment of processes and internal controls in place at certain third-party service organizations. Management, through the below remediation activities, were able to successfully remediate the previously communicated material weaknesses in existence as of December 31, 2023.

The Company performed the following remediation activities in 2024:

We implemented third-party software designed to identify segregation of duties conflicts based on established roles and responsibilities;

We conducted an analysis of conflict reports derived by the third-party software and documented mitigation where established controls exist and operate effectively and designed and implemented new controls to mitigate those conflicts where such controls did not previously exist.

The Company implemented a process to assess and monitor the population of third-party service organizations, and the related attestation reports related to internal controls at those service organizations, that are important to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

As a result of the remediation activities completed during 2024, we remediated the prior year material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management, together with our CEO and CFO, evaluated the changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

Other than changes described above, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
