LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.

Current report

Changes in trade policy and regulations in the United States and other countries, including changes in trade agreements, the imposition of tariffs or other trade restrictions, and the resulting consequences, may have adverse impacts on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Current report

The U.S. government has instituted or proposed changes to international trade policy through the renegotiation, and potential termination, of certain existing bilateral or multilateral trade agreements and treaties with, and the imposition of tariffs on a wide range of products and other goods from China, countries in EMEA and other countries. We have invested significantly in manufacturing facilities in China and Southeast Asia. Given our manufacturing is principally in those countries, policy or regulations changes in the United States or other countries present particular risks for us. Our business has been and continues to be impacted by the expansion of tariffs on goods imported from other countries. While the full extent of tariff changes remains uncertain, the risk of significant trade policy shifts could materially impact our operations, costs, and financial results.

Current report

New or increased tariffs or other trade restrictions, or other changes to trade policies and regulations, could adversely affect more or all of our products. There also are risks associated with retaliatory policies and resulting trade wars. We cannot predict future trade policy and regulations in the United States and other countries, the terms of any renegotiated trade agreements or treaties, or tariffs and their impact on our business. A trade war could have a significant adverse effect on world trade and the world economy. Tariffs and other trade restrictions have in the past increased and could in the future increase the price of, limit the amount of, or cause significant delays in our procurement of certain products or components or materials used in our products. For example, certain materials are primarily available in a limited number of countries, including rare earth elements, minerals and metals. Trade disputes, geopolitical tensions, economic circumstances, political conditions, or public health issues may limit our ability to obtain such materials. Although these rare earth and other materials are generally available from multiple suppliers, China is a predominant producer of these materials. China has in the past restricted export of certain of these materials and recently announced further restrictions. China may in the future further expand restrictions or stop exporting these or other materials, and as a result, our suppliers’ ability to obtain such supply may be constrained, and we may be unable to obtain sufficient quantities, or obtain supply in a timely manner, or at a commercially reasonable cost. In any such event, the sales, cost or gross margin of our products may be adversely affected and the demand from our customers for products and services may be diminished. Uncertainty surrounding international trade policy and regulations as well as disputes and protectionist measures could also have an adverse effect on consumer confidence and spending. If we deem it necessary to alter all or a portion of our activities or operations in response to such policies, agreements or tariffs and other trade restrictions, our capital and operating costs may increase.

Current report

Our ongoing efforts to address these risks may not be effective and may have long-term adverse effects on our operations and operating results that we may not be able to reverse. Such efforts may also take time to implement or to have an effect and may result in adverse quarterly financial results or fluctuations in our quarterly financial results. As a result, changes in trade policy and regulations in the United States and other countries as well as changes in trade agreements and tariffs or other trade restrictions could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
