Current report

Our business is exposed to risks related to the current and potential future conflicts in the Middle East. Current and potential future developments related to the conflicts in the Middle East have had, and could continue to have, a broader impact on the global markets in which we do business. These conflicts have contributed to an increase in our costs across the enterprise, primarily related to fuel and transportation. In the first quarter of 2026, we estimate that we absorbed an additional $3 million of these costs which adversely impacted our profitability in March. These costs continued to increase in April. We are taking actions intended to recover these costs through pricing to our customers. However, there are factors beyond our control, including contract terms and market conditions, that may impact our ability to be successful in these efforts. If elevated fuel and transportation costs persist, increase further, or cannot be passed through to customers in a timely manner (or at all), our margins and operating results could be adversely affected. In addition, geopolitical events may disrupt logistics networks and carrier capacity, increase lead times, or reduce service levels, which could adversely affect our ability to meet customer requirements and could result in higher costs, lost sales, or penalties under certain customer arrangements.
