We continue to closely monitor economic uncertainty in the U.S. and abroad. General inflation in the U.S. rose in recent years to levels not experienced in recent decades. While the rate of inflation has moderated in recent years, general inflation, including rising prices for our raw materials and other inputs, tariffs, as well as rising salaries and other expenses, can negatively impact our business by increasing our cost of sales and operating expenses. Inflation, together with uncertainty regarding future interest rate changes, and broader macroeconomic uncertainty, may cause our customers to reduce, delay, or cancel orders for our goods and services, thereby causing a decrease in or change in the timing of sales of our products and services. We cannot predict the impact of future inflation and interest rate changes on the results of our operations. Furthermore, changes to tariff and related international trade policy that began in 2025 has created uncertainty about the broader economy and our business. For further information regarding the impact of these economic factors on the Company, please see the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
