•Inability of acquired businesses to timely report their results of operations; and
Current report
•Challenges in retaining key talent and critical employees from acquired businesses, which could impact operational continuity and the realization of anticipated synergies.
Current report
Our operations require significant amounts of necessary components and raw materials that are critical to our profitability and can fluctuate in price. We depend on the timely availability of significant quantities of components and raw materials, including metals such as steel and copper, electronic components, and natural fibers such as cotton and flax. The prices of these components and materials are subject to volatility driven by changes in global supply and demand dynamics, trade policies, geopolitical events, and inflationary pressures. In recent periods, we have experienced sustained cost increases for certain materials. Future price escalations, whether due to market conditions or increased tariffs, could negatively impact our cost structure, including margins.
Current report
In addition, we rely on single or sole‑source suppliers for certain critical materials and components. If any such supplier encounters financial instability, capacity limitations, quality issues, regulatory impediments, labor shortages, or operational disruptions, we may be unable to obtain alternative sources on a timely basis or at comparable cost. Such circumstances could result in production delays, cost increases, or our inability to meet customer demand or quality specifications.
Current report
If we are unable to timely source necessary components or materials, our manufacturing operations may be disrupted, delayed or temporarily stopped, which in turn could adversely affect our results of operations.
Current report
•We face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability and other claims if our products are defective or if their use causes harm to persons or property, and we may incur liability if we are unable to successfully defend such claims. Consistent with industry practice, we provide warranties on many of our products, and we could incur costs related to warranty or breach‑of‑contract claims if our products contain manufacturing or design defects or fail to meet contractual or customer specifications. Although we estimate future warranty costs based on historical trends and product sales, these estimates may be inaccurate, resulting in insufficient warranty reserves. Because many of our products are sophisticated and complex and may incorporate or rely on third‑party hardware, software, and data, notwithstanding testing and quality control, defects or errors may still occur. Undetected defects, performance failures, or deviations from customer expectations could lead to loss of customers, contractual liabilities, additional development and operational costs, or delays in customer acceptance. Moreover, because customers deploy our software in diverse and complex environments, including varied hardware, platforms, system management tools, and network configurations, the likelihood of technical issues may increase, and when products are integrated with other components or software, identifying the source of any defect or error may be difficult. If any of these risks materialize, we could face increased costs and expenses, exposure to liability claims, diversion of technical and other resources, loss of customers, or negative publicity, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Previous report
Our operations require significant amounts of necessary components and raw materials that are critical to our profitability and can fluctuate in price. Our costs are affected by price fluctuations of metals such as steel and copper as well as other raw materials such as electronic components, cotton and flax. We have seen a period of sustained price increases for certain raw materials and increased trade tariffs may result in increased costs for us. We deploy a continuous, company-wide process to secure an adequate supply of raw materials at prices which are favorable to us, to source our components and raw materials from fewer suppliers, and to obtain parts from suppliers in low-cost countries where possible. If we are unable to timely source these components or raw materials, whether resulting from more stringent regulatory requirements; supplier financial condition; disruptions in transportation; an outbreak of a severe public health pandemic; severe weather; or the occurrence or threat of wars, our operations may be disrupted, or we could experience a delay or temporary stoppage in certain of our manufacturing operations. If the prices of critical components and raw materials continue to increase or we are unable to pass increased costs of components and raw materials to customers, our results of operations could be adversely affected. Additionally, a disruption within our supply chain network could adversely affect our results of operations.
Previous report
•We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability or other claims in the event our products are alleged to be defective, or the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in harm to others or to property. We may in the future incur liability if product liability lawsuits against us are successful. In addition, consistent with industry practice, we provide warranties on many of our products, and we may experience costs of warranty or breach of contract claims if our products have defects in manufacture or design or they do not meet contractual specifications. We estimate our future warranty costs based on historical trends and product sales, but we may fail to accurately estimate those costs and thereby fail to establish adequate warranty reserves for them.

Previous wording
Demand for our products is variable and subject to factors beyond our control, which could result in unanticipated events significantly impacting our results of operations.
Current wording
Demand for our products is variable and subject to factors beyond our control, any of which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.
Previous wording
A substantial portion of our sales is concentrated in industries that are subject to market conditions which may cause customer demand for our products to be volatile. Global trends in the use of cash as well as increased durability of banknotes could impact demand. Reductions in demand by these industries would reduce the sales and profitability of our business. Our CPI segment could be affected by sustained weakness in certain geographic markets or certain end markets such as gaming, retail or banking, as well as low employment levels, office occupancy rates and factors affecting vending operator profitability such as higher fuel, food and equipment financing costs; results could also be impacted by unforeseen advances in payment processing technologies. In addition, our results in the SAT segment are subject to significant variability due to the timing and size of contract awards by central banks for banknote production and actual order rates, particularly with the U.S. government.

Net sales by destination outside the U.S. were 48% of our consolidated amounts in 2024. We expect that non-U.S. sales will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future.

Previous wording
•changes in the U.S. government's approach to trade policy, including in some cases renegotiating and terminating certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs (including in Mexico where our facility operates under the Mexican Maquiladora program, which provides for reduced tariffs and eased import regulations) or trade agreements or policies has the potential to adversely impact demand for our products, our costs, our customers, our suppliers, and the U.S. economy, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Current wording
•Developments in global trade policy, including possible changes to U.S. trade policies and tariffs and retaliatory trade measures taken by other countries. While we continue to expect to be able to largely offset the impact of tariffs on operating profit with pricing and productivity initiatives, the broader economic implications resulting from market volatility may decrease customer demand and negatively impact revenue and profitability. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs (including in Mexico where our facility operates under the Mexican Maquiladora program, which provides for reduced tariffs and eased import regulations) may adversely impact demand for our products, our costs, our customers, our suppliers, and the U.S. economy, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. U.S. and foreign policy changes and uncertainty about such changes have resulted in increased market volatility and currency exchange rate fluctuations and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are dependent on information technology networks and systems, including the Internet, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and, in the normal course of our business, we collect and retain certain types of personally identifiable and other information pertaining to our customers, stockholders and employees. The legal, regulatory and contractual environment surrounding information security and privacy is constantly evolving and companies that collect and retain such information are under increasing attack by cyber-criminals around the world. A theft, loss, fraudulent use or misuse of customer, vendor, employee or our proprietary data by cybercrime or otherwise, non-compliance with our contractual or other legal obligations regarding such data or a violation of our privacy and security policies with respect to such data could adversely impact our reputation and could result in costs, fines, litigation or regulatory action against us. Security breaches can create system disruptions and shutdowns that could result in disruptions to our operations. We cannot be certain that advances in criminal capabilities, including the use of artificial intelligence, new vulnerabilities or other developments will not compromise or breach the security solutions protecting our information technology, networks and systems. A cyber-attack on our information systems technology or those of our partners, vendors, or suppliers could adversely affect our ability to process orders, maintain proper levels of inventory, collect accounts receivable and pay expenses, all of which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Failure to effectively prevent, detect and recover from security breaches, including attacks on information technology and infrastructure by hackers, viruses, breaches due to employee error or actions, or other disruptions, could seriously harm our operations as well as the operations of our customers and suppliers. Such serious harm can involve, among other things, misuse of our assets, business disruptions, loss of data, unauthorized access to trade secrets and confidential business information, unauthorized access to personal information, legal claims or proceedings, reporting errors, processing inefficiencies, negative media attention, reputational harm, loss of sales, remediation and increased insurance costs, and interference with regulatory compliance. We have experienced and expect to continue to experience some of these types of cybersecurity threats and incidents, which could be material in the future.

We compete with other industrial technology businesses for highly qualified employees in the countries in which we operate, and we may not be able to retain our personnel or hire and retain additional personnel needed for us to sustain and grow our business as planned.
Current wording
We compete with other industrial technology businesses for employees in the countries in which we operate, and we may not be able to retain our personnel or hire and retain additional personnel needed for us to sustain and grow our business as planned.
Previous wording
Our business segments and corporate offices are dependent upon highly qualified personnel, and we generally are dependent upon the continued efforts of key management employees. Several factors may adversely affect the labor force available to us or increase labor costs, including high employment levels, federal unemployment subsidies, and other government regulations. We have recently observed an overall tightening and increasingly competitive labor market which has, and could continue to result in, higher compensation costs. While we believe we have a robust intellectual capital process, we may have difficulty retaining key personnel or locating and hiring additional qualified personnel. The loss of the services of any of such personnel or our failure to attract and retain other qualified and experienced personnel on acceptable terms could impair our ability to successfully sustain and grow our business, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording
Our growth depends, in part, on continued sales of existing products, as well as the successful development and introduction of new products or technologies, which face the uncertainty of customer acceptance and reaction from competitors. Any delay in the development or launch of a new product could result in our not being the first to market, which could compromise our competitive position. The inability of new products to meet targeted performance measures, or the discovery of a successful counterfeit of our security technology products, could cause reputational harm and hurt future sales. Further, the development and introduction of new products may require us to make investments in specialized personnel and capital equipment, increase marketing efforts and reallocate resources away from other uses. We also may need to modify our systems and strategy considering new products that we develop. If we are unable to develop and introduce new products in a cost-effective manner or otherwise manage effectively the operations related to new products, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely impacted.

We are required to comply with various import and export control laws, which may affect our transactions with certain customers. In certain circumstances, export control and economic sanctions, and other trade-related regulations may prohibit the export of certain products, services and technologies, and in other circumstances we may be required to obtain an export license before exporting the controlled item. A failure to comply with these requirements might result in suspension of these contracts and suspension or debarment from government contracting or subcontracting. We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or securing any improper advantage. We are also subject to the anti-bribery laws of other jurisdictions. Failure to comply with any of these and similar regulations could result in civil and criminal liability, monetary and non-monetary penalties, fines, disruptions to our business, limitations on our ability to export products and services, and damage to our reputation.

We rely on a combination of trade secrets, patents, trademarks, copyrights and confidentiality procedures to protect our products and technology. Existing trade secret, patent, trademark and copyright laws offer only limited protection. Our patents could be invalidated or circumvented. In addition, others may develop substantially equivalent, or superseding proprietary technology, or competitors may offer equivalent non-infringing products in competition with our products, thereby substantially reducing the value of our proprietary rights. The laws of some foreign countries in which our products are or may be manufactured or sold may not protect our products or intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S. We cannot assure that the steps we take to protect our intellectual property will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology. We could incur significant and/or unexpected costs in our efforts to avoid, manage, defend and litigate intellectual property matters. Our inability to protect our intellectual property could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We are committed to continuous productivity improvement, and we continue to evaluate opportunities to reduce costs, simplify or improve global processes, and increase the reliability of order fulfillment and satisfaction of customer needs. To operate more efficiently and control costs, from time to time we execute restructuring activities, which include workforce reductions and facility consolidations. For example, we recorded pre-tax restructuring charges in 2024 and 2023. While these are proactive actions to increase our productivity and operating effectiveness, our inability to adequately respond to potential declines in global demand for our products and services and properly align our cost base could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

While we are a principal competitor in most of our markets, all our markets are highly competitive. The competitors in many of our business segments can be expected in the future to improve technologies, reduce costs and develop and introduce new products. The ability of our business segments to achieve similar advances will be important to our competitive positions. Competitive pressures, including those discussed above, could cause one or more of our business segments to lose market share or could result in significant price erosion, either of which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Previous wording
As of December 31, 2024, we had goodwill and other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, of $1,375.9 million, which represented approximately 58% of our total assets. Our goodwill is subject to an impairment test on an annual basis and is also tested whenever events and circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Any excess goodwill resulting from the impairment test must be written off in the period of determination. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are generally amortized over the useful life of such assets. In addition, from time to time, we may acquire or make an investment in a business that will require us to record goodwill based on the purchase price and the value of the acquired assets. We may subsequently experience unforeseen issues with such business that adversely affect the anticipated returns of the business or value of the intangible assets and trigger an evaluation of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets for such business. Future determinations of significant write-offs of goodwill or intangible assets as a result of an impairment test or any accelerated amortization of other intangible assets could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
