DMC Global Inc.

There have been no material changes in the risk factors identified as being attendant to our business in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, except as provided below.

New or existing tariffs and other trade measures could adversely affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

New or existing tariffs and other trade measures could adversely affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows, either directly or indirectly through various adverse impacts on our significant customers. In 2018, the U.S. announced tariffs of 25 percent on steel and 10 percent on aluminum imported from countries where we typically source metals. These tariffs were met with retaliatory tariffs from certain countries and increased, broader tariffs were levied by the U.S. on targeted countries, including China. The tariffs impacted the cost of the importation of steel, which we utilize in our steel plate and steel pipe, key materials in our NobelClad and DynaEnergetics businesses. Though in many cases we have been able to source metals from domestic suppliers, some materials are only available from sources subject to tariffs. The cost of domestic steel and aluminum also increased, along with the price of delivery, and the availability of certain materials has been limited. These higher costs have increased the price of our products to our customers and, in some instances, affected our ability to be competitive. For our NobelClad business, this has impacted our ability to compete on international projects and negatively impacted U.S. fabricators, which are the primary consumers of NobelClad products.

In the first quarter of 2025, the United States imposed increased tariffs on foreign imports into the United States, including an additional 20% tariff on all product imports from China, an additional 25% tariff on all product imports from Mexico and Canada, as well as additional proposed tariffs on other countries. The tariff policy environment has been and is expected to continue to be dynamic, and we cannot predict what additional actions may ultimately be taken by the United States or other governments with respect to tariffs or trade relations, including retaliatory trade measures taken by other countries in response to existing or future United States tariffs or other measures. As a result, we have taken steps to mitigate the impact of tariffs on our businesses, such as the March 2025 DynaEnergetics announcement that it will institute a tariff surcharge ranging from 7% to 9% on all perforating systems sold in North America in response to higher raw material costs resulting from tariffs announced by the United States to that date. We may be required to take other responsive steps, as the prolonged duration of tariffs, including retaliatory tariffs, the imposition of additional tariffs and the risk of potential broader global trade conflicts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations if we are not able to pass through cost increases to our customers.
