Risk Change Over Time
- Capital Markets - Risk 1Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences, may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The U.S. government has adopted new approaches to trade policy, and in some cases may renegotiate, or potentially terminate, certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements. The U.S. government has also imposed tariffs on most foreign goods and has raised the possibility of imposing significant tariff increases or expanding the tariffs to capture other countries and types of goods. Tariffs on imports from nations from whom we procure products or materials and components used in our manufacturing process could increase our operating costs and/or require us to incur significant costs to transition to alternative manufacturers or suppliers. Future tariff increases, expanding the tariffs to cover other countries or other changes in U.S. trade policy could exacerbate these challenges. In addition, in response to these tariffs, other countries have threatened, announced or implemented retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods. Political tensions and uncertainty as a result of trade policies and ongoing judicial challenges to such policies could reduce trade volume, investment, technological exchange, and other economic activities between major international economies, resulting in a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, which could in turn have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 18
- Economy & Political Environment - Risk 1Material adverse developments in global economic conditions, or the occurrence of certain other world events, could negatively affect demand for our products and harm our business.
Economic uncertainty and business downturns in the U.S., European, and Asian Pacific markets have adversely affected, and may in the future adversely affect, our results of operations and financial condition. Global economic uncertainty has produced, and continues to produce, substantial stress, volatility, illiquidity, and disruption of global credit and other financial markets. Various factors contribute to the uncertain economic environment, including geopolitical tensions, military conflicts, the level and volatility of interest rates, the level of inflation, the continuing effects of regional or global health pandemics, an actual recession or fears of a recession, trade policies and tariffs, and political and governmental instability. Economic uncertainty has and could continue to negatively affect the businesses and purchasing decisions of companies in the industries we serve. Such disruptions present considerable risks to our businesses and operations. As global economic conditions experience stress and negative volatility, or if there is an escalation in regional or global conflicts, or terrorism, we will likely experience reductions in the number of available customers and in capital expenditures by our remaining customers, longer sales cycles, deferral, or delay of purchase commitments for our products and increased price competition, any of which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and liquidity.
