Previous wording
Geopolitical instability, labor unrest, and economic disruptions in certain foreign jurisdictions may indirectly affect the Company's operations. Although the Company does not have direct sales, operations, or customers in regions experiencing significant instability, such as Venezuela, recent labor strikes, political instability, and economic conditions in Venezuela may contribute to broader regional or global disruptions, including impacts on international trade relationships, energy markets, currency volatility, or global logistics networks. In addition, changes in diplomatic relationships, foreign policy positions, or international regulatory frameworks involving countries experiencing political or economic instability could result in new or expanded trade restrictions, sanctions, compliance obligations, or logistical challenges imposed by foreign governments, including the United States. Such developments could indirectly affect the availability or cost of certain inputs, transportation services, or third-party suppliers upon which the Company relies. While the Company believes its current supply chain and manufacturing operations are diversified and resilient, it cannot assure investors that future geopolitical developments will not result in increased costs, delays, or other adverse effects on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.
