Adverse changes in international trade policies, tariffs and treaties, including increases in tariff rates and the imposition of additional tariffs, may materially adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Previous report

Most of our imported products are subject to tariffs, duties, indirect taxes, quotas and non-tariff trade barriers, any of which may limit the quantity of products that we may import into the United States and other countries or that may impact the cost of such products. To maximize opportunities, we rely on free trade agreements and other supply chain initiatives, and, as a result, we are subject to government regulations and restrictions with respect to our cross-border activity. Additionally, we are subject to government regulations relating to importation activities, including related to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) withhold release orders. The imposition of taxes, duties and quotas, the withdrawal from or the material modification to trade agreements, retaliatory actions from other countries, and/or if CBP detains shipments of our goods pursuant to a withhold release order could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous report

During 2025, the United States implemented incremental tariffs on imports from many countries. Most of our products are produced in countries that are subject to these tariffs. As a result, the cost to import our products into the U.S. has increased. These increased costs have had a material negative impact on our gross margins and results of operations in 2025. If current tariff levels persist or worsen, we expect that tariffs will continue to have a negative impact on our gross margins and results of operations.

Previous report

We have been, and will continue, pursuing strategic options to mitigate the impact of tariffs. For example, in response to the elevated tariffs on imports from China announced earlier this year, we have continued our efforts to accelerate the diversification of our Drinkware manufacturing to additional countries beyond China. We continue to expect a large percentage of our Drinkware manufacturing capacity to be outside of China by the end of 2025. These accelerated diversification efforts have caused short-term supply chain disruptions, which have impacted our ability to source certain products. As a result, we have experienced inventory constraints that have adversely impacted sales in 2025, and we expect such impact to continue in the fourth quarter of 2025. If we do not meet demand due to constrained inventory, we could damage our relationships with our wholesale partners and customers and delay or lose sales opportunities, which could unfavorably impact our future sales and materially negatively impact our results of operations. In addition, a change in available exemptions, an increase in tariffs in other countries, or retaliatory actions from other countries, could further constrain our supply chain and further raise the cost of our products.

Previous report

In addition to diversifying Drinkware manufacturing beyond China, we are managing operating expenses, working capital and cash; negotiating with suppliers; evaluating pricing strategies; leveraging tariff exemptions where possible; and pursuing other supply chain optimization activities.

Previous report

Tariffs have potential tangential economic impacts that may also harm our business. If businesses are forced to raise their prices in response to tariffs or other factors, higher prices for consumers may lead to a decrease in disposable consumer income and reduced consumer demand for many types of products, including ours. Demand for our products could also be harmed if the indirect impacts of tariffs cause a recession and there is a decrease in consumer discretionary spending.

Previous report

Given the uncertainty regarding the scope and duration of the current and potential tariffs, as well as the potential for additional trade actions by the United States or other countries, the ultimate impact on our business and results of operations is uncertain but could continue to be material or worsen.
