    The ongoing conflict in the Middle East and related geopolitical instability may adversely affect our business.

    Beginning in February 2026, the United States and Israel conducted coordinated military strikes against Iran, which responded with direct and indirect attacks across the Middle East. Since that time, the conflict has continued through periods of escalation and attempted de-escalation, and hostilities between the United States and Iran have recently resumed. Although we do not have material operations in the region, the ongoing conflict, and any further escalation, including additional military actions, retaliatory measures, sanctions, disruptions to trade or transportation routes, cyberattacks, or other governmental or market responses, has resulted in, and could continue to result in, significant disruptions to global energy supplies and increases in energy prices. These developments may heighten inflationary pressures on our input costs and supply chain, adversely affect global supply chains, energy and commodity markets, currency exchange rates, financial markets, and overall macroeconomic conditions, and negatively impact customer demand in the markets in which we operate. While we expect the conflict to continue to affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations, the extent and duration of these impacts remain uncertain.

    Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and Indiana law could delay or prevent a change in control.

    Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation and by-laws may delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that a shareholder may consider favorable. For example, the articles of incorporation authorize our Board of Directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock. Such provisions may also discourage acquisition proposals or delay or prevent a change in control, which could harm our stock price. Indiana law also imposes some restrictions on mergers and other business combinations between any holder of 10% or more of our outstanding common stock and us as well as certain restrictions on the voting rights of "control shares" of an "issuing public corporation."

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
