Risk Change Over Time
- Regulation - Risk 1Our international sales and operations are subject to applicable laws relating to trade, tariffs, export controls, and foreign corrupt practices, the violation of which could adversely affect our operations.
We must comply with all applicable international trade, customs, tariffs, export controls, and economic sanctions laws and regulations of the United States and other countries. We are also subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-bribery laws that generally bar bribes or gifts to foreign governments or officials. The recent presidential administrations in the United States have taken, and may take additional, actions that may inhibit international trade by U.S.-based companies. Changes in trade sanctions laws may restrict our business practices, including cessation of business activities in sanctioned countries or with sanctioned parties, and may result in modifications to compliance programs. Violation of these laws or regulations could result in sanctions or fines and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and reputation.

Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 30
- Manufacturing - Risk 1We have incurred and may incur in the future additional expenses and delays due to interruptions at our manufacturing and service facilities as a result of supply chain constraints, and in the future we may also incur additional expenses and delays due to technical problems or other interruptions at our manufacturing and service facilities.
Disruptions in operations, including supply chain constraints, technical problems or other interruptions, such as floods, fire, natural disasters, pandemics or other public health crises, have adversely effected, and in the future may adversely affect the manufacturing or service capacity of our facilities and have delayed, and in the future may delay, our ability to produce, ship or service certain of our products. Such interruptions have caused, and in the future could cause, delays in production or service, and have caused, and in the future could cause, us to incur additional expenses such as charges for expedited deliveries for products that are delayed. Additionally, our customers may have the ability to cancel purchase orders in the event of any delays in production or service and may decrease future orders if delays are persistent. To the extent that such disruptions do not result from damage to our physical property, these disruptions may not be covered by our business interruption insurance. Any such disruptions may adversely affect our business, operations, and financial results.
- Manufacturing - Risk 2ChangedIf we do not meet customers' product quality and reliability standards and expectations, we may experience increased or unexpected product warranty claims and other adverse consequences to our business.
Product quality and reliability are significant factors influencing customers' decisions to purchase our products and aftermarket services. Inability to maintain the high quality of our products relative to the perceived or actual quality of similar products offered by competitors could result in the loss of market share, loss of revenue, reduced profitability, an increase in warranty costs, government investigations, and/or damage to our reputation. Product quality and reliability are determined in part by factors that are not entirely within our control. We depend on our suppliers for parts and components that meet our standards. If our suppliers fail to meet those standards, we may not be able to deliver the quality of products that our customers expect, which may impair our reputation, resulting in lower revenue and higher warranty costs. We provide our customers a warranty covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products we manufacture. Such warranties generally provide that products will be free from defects for periods ranging from 12 months to 60 months. If a product fails to comply with the warranty, we may be obligated, at our expense, to correct any defect by repairing or replacing the defective product. Although we maintain warranty reserves in an amount based primarily on the number of units shipped and on historical and anticipated warranty claims, there can be no assurance that future warranty claims will follow historical patterns or that we can accurately anticipate the level of future warranty claims. An increase in the rate of warranty claims or the occurrence of unexpected warranty claims, for which we do not have a reserve or where we cannot recover from our vendors to the extent their materials or workmanship were defective, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
