Current report
Changes in trade policies, including tariffs, could cause adverse impacts to our business.
Current report
Beginning in April 2025, we observed a significant shift in U.S. trade policy, with increased tariffs and the imposition of new tariffs that could impact our supply chain and our business. Even though our suppliers are primarily domestic, we rely on some imported materials, components, or finished goods, and if tariffs increase, our supply chain costs may rise, adversely affecting our business, results of operations and cash flows. We also operate businesses in Canada and New Zealand, which support our domestic business, which increases our potential exposure to the impact of any tariff.
Current report
While certain of such tariffs have been temporarily paused as currently articulated by the U.S. government, any further changes in trade policies, such as new tariffs, increases in tariffs, imposition of previously paused tariffs or reactionary measures including retaliatory tariffs, legal challenges, or currency manipulation, could adversely impact us. Additionally, retaliatory measures, or prolonged uncertainty in trade relationships could result in supply chain disruptions, delayed shipments, or increased operational complexity, which could also adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. While we intend to take steps to mitigate any impacts of tariffs or other impacts resulting from changes in trade policy, our ability to do so may be limited by operational and supply chain constraints, especially in the short term.
