Share Price & Shareholder Rights1 | 3.3%
Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
There can be no assurance as to the value of the shares of the combined company to be received by our shareholders in the pending Reverse Morris Trust transaction with Gentherm.Added
Accounting & Financial Operations1 | 3.3%
Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 1
Our balance sheet includes significant amounts of goodwill and intangible assets. An impairment of a significant portion of these assets would adversely affect our financial results.Debt & Financing3 | 10.0%
Debt & Financing - Risk 1
Our indebtedness may limit our use of cash flow to support operating, development and investment activities, and failure to comply with our debt covenants could adversely affect our liquidity and financial results.Debt & Financing - Risk 2
The pending Reverse Morris Trust transaction with Gentherm is subject to various risks and uncertainties. There can be no assurance that it will be completed on the terms and timeline planned, if at all, and it will result in significant costs to the Company.Added
The pending spin-off of our Performance Technologies segment businesses and simultaneous combination with Gentherm may not be completed as currently planned. Completion of the Reverse Morris Trust transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including the approval of Gentherm's shareholders and regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that we will receive the required approvals in a timely manner or at all. The completion of the pending Reverse Morris Trust transaction is also subject to obtaining opinions and a private letter ruling from the IRS regarding its qualification as a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In addition, we may experience greater than expected difficulties in separating the Performance Technologies segment businesses from our other businesses. Any significant delays in completing the transaction may increase the amount of fees and resources spent on the transaction and the risk that it may not be completed. We have and will continue to incur costs related to the transaction, including legal, accounting, tax, and other professional fees, whether or not the transaction is completed. If the transaction is not completed or not completed in the timeframe expected, our business, financial results and market price of our shares could be adversely affected.
Debt & Financing - Risk 3
We are subject to risks and uncertainties while the Reverse Morris Trust transaction with Gentherm is pending.Added
Uncertainties regarding the impacts of the pending Reverse Morris Trust transaction with Gentherm on our employees, customers, and suppliers could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Our employees may be distracted due to uncertainty regarding their future roles and we may face challenges in attracting, retaining and motivating key employees. Our suppliers or customers may delay or defer decisions or may terminate their relationships with us or our Performance Technologies segment businesses, which could adversely affect our sales, results of operations, and cash flows. Further, the pending transaction will require significant time and attention from management, which could detract from other business concerns.
In addition, potential shareholder litigation in connection with the pending transaction or other litigation, settlements or investigations may affect the timing or occurrence of the pending transaction or result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability.
Corporate Activity and Growth3 | 10.0%
Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 1
We may be unable to achieve some or all of the anticipated benefits from the pending Reverse Morris Trust transaction with Gentherm.Added
Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 2
We are strategically focused on growing our Data Centers business. We may not realize the sales growth anticipated to data center customers.Added
We are making significant investments to support the growth of our Data Centers business. We have been rapidly expanding manufacturing capacity for data center products, including leasing new manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and in Canada and purchasing equipment necessary for new and expanded production lines. The success of our Data Centers business relies on the growth of our current and prospective customers' data centers. If the anticipated growth in data center infrastructure does not materialize due to changes in the economy, obstacles related to the availability of power and land resources, changes in the reliance on digital technologies, or other factors, we may not realize the sales growth and the return on our investments that we anticipate.
In addition, we recently entered into a long-term capacity agreement with one of our strategic data center customers, with whom we are party to a confidentiality agreement. In connection with this capacity agreement, we received a $165 million up-front deposit from the customer to support investments necessary to meet the planned sales volume. We expect to sell more than $4 billion of data center cooling products to this customer during calendar years 2027 through 2029. However, there can be no assurance that this customer will purchase the amounts projected. If this customer or other data center customers terminate, reduce, or defer orders, we may not realize the sales growth anticipated to data center customers and our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely impacted.
Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 3
Our business strategy includes acquisitions and dispositions. We may be unable to identify, execute, and successfully integrate acquisitions or successfully execute strategic business dispositions.Under our strategy based on 80/20 principles, we are focused on acquiring businesses and investing in technologies that we expect to accelerate our strategic growth in select markets. If we are unable to successfully execute on further organic growth opportunities or complete acquisitions in the future, our growth may be limited. There can be no assurance we will be able to identify and complete the purchase of attractive acquisition targets, including obtaining financing, if necessary, to facilitate such transactions. Future acquisitions will require integration of operations, sales and marketing, information technology, finance, and administrative functions. If we are unable to successfully integrate future acquisitions into our existing operations, capitalize on expected market share or revenue gains, realize anticipated cost or revenue synergies, or operate any acquired businesses profitably, we may not achieve the financial or operational success expected. In addition, future acquisitions could include the issuance of shares of our common stock as all or a portion of the consideration paid to the sellers. Any such issuance of shares would be dilutive to the interests of our existing shareholders and may adversely affect the market price of our shares.
We may also seek to sell or otherwise exit portions of our business that do not align with our strategic plan. Business dispositions involve risks and uncertainties, and we may be unable to sell or exit such businesses on terms satisfactory to us and within a desired time frame. Risks include potential significant costs and expenses, the loss of customer relationships, and the diversion of management's attention from other business concerns. Further, any continued financial involvement in the disposed business, such as through guarantees, indemnities, or other financial obligations, could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
D.FINANCIAL RISKS
Ability to Sell
Total Risks: 7/30 (23%)Above Sector Average
Competition3 | 10.0%
Competition - Risk 1
We may be unable to maintain competitive cost structures.Competition - Risk 2
If we cannot differentiate ourselves from our competitors with our technology, our existing and potential customers may seek lower prices and our sales and earnings may be adversely affected.Our leading-edge technologies, product quality, and the history of our product performance in each of our markets has created our competitive value with our customers. If we fail to be at the forefront of technological advances and cannot differentiate ourselves from our competitors with our technology or fail to provide high quality, innovative and advanced performance products and services that both meet or exceed customer expectations and address their ever-evolving needs, we may experience price erosion, lower sales, and lower profit margins. Significant technological developments by our competitors or others also could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Competition - Risk 3
Continued and increased competition could adversely affect our business and our results of operations.We experience competition from companies in other parts of the world that enjoy economic advantages, such as lower labor costs, lower health care costs, lower tariff or tax rates, lower costs associated with legal compliance, and, in some cases, export or raw materials subsidies. In addition, consolidation and vertical integration within the supply base have introduced new or restructured competitors to our markets. Increased competition could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
B.OPERATIONAL RISKS
Demand2 | 6.7%
Demand - Risk 1
Our net sales and profitability could be adversely affected from business losses or declines with major customers.Demand - Risk 2
We are dependent upon the health of the customers and markets we serve.We are highly susceptible to unfavorable trends or disruptions in the markets we serve, as our customers' financial condition and performance are affected by demand for their goods or services, regulatory initiatives and incentives and general economic conditions, including supply chain challenges, access to credit, the price of fuel and electricity, employment levels and trends, interest rates, labor relations issues, regulatory requirements and incentives, technology demands and advancements, government-imposed restrictions relating to health crises or other events, trade agreements and other market factors, as well as by customer-specific issues. Any significant decline in demand for our products and solutions, including those driven by end-market demands or demand for our customer's products or services, by current and future customers could result in asset impairment charges and a reduction in our sales, thereby adversely impacting our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Sales & Marketing2 | 6.7%
Sales & Marketing - Risk 1
Our results of operations could be adversely affected by pricing pressures from our customers.Sales & Marketing - Risk 2
Our pricing strategies could negatively impact our overall win rate for new business.As part of our application of 80/20 principles, we have improved our commercial acumen, including our pricing methodology, and have clear, strategic profit margin targets for new sales. We also negotiate for contract terms that allow for adjustments to our pricing in the event of increases in raw material and commodity costs, including costs associated with shipping, import/export and logistics. While we believe that our 80/20 pricing strategy will strengthen our business and allow us to focus our resources on higher margin sales programs, it is possible that it may result in a lower overall win rate for new business. If our pricing strategy results in winning less new business, our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
Macro & Political
Total Risks: 6/30 (20%)Above Sector Average
Economy & Political Environment1 | 3.3%
Economy & Political Environment - Risk 1
Economic, political, and general market conditions could adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.International Operations1 | 3.3%
International Operations - Risk 1
We are subject to risks related to our international operations and global customer and supplier base.Natural and Human Disruptions2 | 6.7%
Natural and Human Disruptions - Risk 1
A future widespread outbreak of an illness or other public health threat could adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.Natural and Human Disruptions - Risk 2
Global climate change and related emphasis on sustainability goals by various stakeholders could negatively affect our business.Changed
There continues to be ambiguity regarding the promulgation and enforcement of climate-related regulations, which creates uncertainty in the markets in which we operate. This uncertainty extends to the use or adoption rate of many products within our product portfolio and our overall costs of regulatory compliance, which may impact the demand for our products and/or may require us to make increased capital expenditures to meet new standards and regulations. Further, our customers, other market participants, or government entities may impose emissions or other environmental standards upon us through regulation, market-based emissions policies or consumer preference that we may not be able to meet on a timely or cost-effective basis, due to the required level of capital investment or pace of technological advancement.
Climate changes, such as extreme weather conditions, also create financial risk and uncertainty for our business. Demand for our products and services may be affected by unpredictable or unseasonable weather conditions. Climate changes could also disrupt our operations by impacting the availability and cost of materials and resources needed for manufacturing and could increase our insurance and other operating costs. In addition, natural disasters or extreme weather events, including those as a result of climate changes, could disrupt our manufacturing operations and our ability to manufacture and deliver products to our customers and adversely impact our results of operations and cash flows.
Increased stakeholder focus on sustainability matters requires the continuous monitoring of evolving expectations, standards, and disclosure requirements across jurisdictions. Certain customers are requiring information on our environmental sustainability goals and commitments, which we have not released publicly. Stakeholders may hold divergent or changing views on sustainability initiatives, particularly in light of evolving political and market dynamics. There can be no assurance that our future plans, targets, goals or other commitments will be achieved or that related investments will meet applicable regulatory or stakeholder expectations.
A failure to adequately meet stakeholder expectations may result in the loss of business, diluted market valuation, an inability to attract and retain customers or an inability to attract and retain top talent. Likewise, a failure to comply with any current or future sustainability reporting requirements, as established by regulators in the U.S., Europe and beyond, may result in the loss of business, regulatory penalties, litigation, and/or reputational damage.
Capital Markets2 | 6.7%
Capital Markets - Risk 1
Changes in U.S. or international trade policies, including the imposition of or increases in tariffs, could adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.Changed
Capital Markets - Risk 2
As a global company, we are subject to foreign currency rate fluctuations, which affect our financial results.Although our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, a significant portion of our sales and operating costs are realized in foreign currencies. Our sales and profitability are affected by movements of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies in which we generate sales and incur expenses. To the extent that we are unable to match sales in foreign currencies with costs paid in the same currency, exchange rate fluctuations in any such currency could have an adverse effect on our financial results. During times of a strengthening U.S. dollar, our reported sales and earnings from our international operations will be lower because the applicable local currency will be translated into fewer U.S. dollars. In certain instances, currency rate fluctuations may create pricing pressure relative to competitors quoting in different currencies, which could result in our products becoming less competitive. Significant long-term fluctuations in relative currency values could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Production
Total Risks: 4/30 (13%)Below Sector Average
Employment / Personnel1 | 3.3%

Our future success is dependent on our ability to attract, develop and retain qualified personnel.Supply Chain1 | 3.3%
Supply Chain - Risk 1
We could be adversely affected if we experience shortages of components or materials from our suppliers.Costs2 | 6.7%
Costs - Risk 1
Increases in costs of materials, including aluminum, copper, steel and stainless steel (nickel), other raw materials and purchased components, could place significant pressure on our results of operations and cash flows.Changed
Costs - Risk 2
We could be adversely impacted by the costs of environmental, health and safety regulations.Our operations are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing, among other things, emissions to air, discharge to waters and the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste and other materials. The operation of our manufacturing facilities entails risks in these areas and there can be no assurance we will avoid material costs or liabilities relating to such matters. Our financial responsibility to clean up contaminated property may extend to previously-owned or used property, properties owned by unrelated companies, as well as properties we currently own and use, regardless of whether the contamination is attributable to prior owners. In addition, potentially material expenditures could be required in order for our products and operations to comply with evolving environmental, health and safety laws, regulations (including those developed as a concern to climate control), or other requirements that may be adopted or imposed in the future. Future costs to remediate contamination or to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

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.
