“Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Certain statements contained in this Form 8-K and the exhibits attached hereto are forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, and financial or other business targets, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.
The Company believes that the most significant risk factors that could affect its financial performance in the near term include: (i) the impacts to underlying demand for the Company’s products from global economic conditions, political uncertainty, and changes in environmental standards and governmental regulations; (ii) competitors’ actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets, and product offerings; (iii) the cost and availability of raw materials; (iv) the degree to which higher costs can be offset with productivity measures and/or passed on to customers through price increases, without a significant loss of volume; (v) foreign currency fluctuations; and (vi) the execution and integration of acquisitions.
Actual results and trends may differ materially from historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors, including but not limited to, risks and uncertainties related to the following:
| • | International Operations – worldwide economic, social, political and market conditions; changes in political conditions, including those related to China, the Russia-Ukraine war, the Israel-Hamas war and related hostilities in the Middle East; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and other risks associated with international operations, including in emerging markets |
| • | The Company’s Business – fluctuations in demand affecting sales to customers; fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials and energy; changes in the Company’s markets due to competitive conditions, technological developments, laws and regulations, tariffs and customer preferences; increasing environmental standards; the impact of competitive products and pricing; execution and integration of acquisitions; selling prices; |
| customer and supplier concentrations or consolidations; financial condition of distributors; outsourced manufacturers; product and service quality; restructuring and other productivity actions; timely development and market acceptance of new products, including sustainable or sustainably-sourced products; investment in development activities and new production facilities; successful implementation of new manufacturing technologies and installation of manufacturing equipment; the Company’s ability to generate sustained productivity improvement; the Company’s ability to achieve and sustain targeted cost reductions; collection of receivables from customers; and our sustainability and governance practices; and epidemics, pandemics or other outbreaks of illness |
| • | Information Technology – disruptions in information technology systems, cyber-attacks or other security breaches; and successful installation of new or upgraded information technology systems |
| • | Income Taxes – fluctuations in tax rates; changes in tax laws and regulations, and uncertainties associated with interpretations of such laws and regulations; retention of tax incentives; outcome of tax audits; and the realization of deferred tax assets |
| • | Human Capital – recruitment and retention of employees and collective labor arrangements |
| • | The Company’s Indebtedness – credit risks; the Company’s ability to obtain adequate financing arrangements and maintain access to capital; fluctuations in interest rates; volatility in financial markets; and compliance with the Company’s debt covenants |
| • | Ownership of the Company’s Stock – potential significant variability of the Company’s stock price and amounts of future dividends and share repurchases |
| • | Legal and Regulatory Matters – protection and infringement of intellectual property; impact of legal and regulatory proceedings, including with respect to environmental, compliance and anti-corruption, environmental, health and safety, and trade compliance |
| • | Other Financial Matters – fluctuations in pension costs and goodwill impairment |
For a more detailed discussion of these factors, see Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2024.
