Previous wording

Recently, the U.S. government has implemented substantial and rapidly evolving changes to U.S. trade policies, including increased tariffs and changes in U.S. participation in multilateral trade agreements, while other countries, China and Canada in particular, have undertaken retaliatory measures in response to such changes. These changes could result in increased costs of goods, which may reduce our margins and/or require us to raise prices, decreasing customer demand for our products, and/or fewer imported U.S. films. While the Company does not believe these changes will materially impact its results for 2025, there can be no guarantees that further changes to U.S. trade policy and/or retaliatory actions by other countries will not occur.
