Item 1A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, or other outbreaks of disease or similar public health threats, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The recent outbreak of COVID-19, and any other outbreaks of contagious diseases
or other adverse public health developments in
?Disruptions or restrictions on our employees' ability to work effectively due to illness, travel bans, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders or other limitations. ?Temporary closures of our facilities or the facilities of our customers or suppliers, which could affect our ability to timely meet our customer's orders and negatively impact our supply chain. ?In an effort to increase the wider availability of needed medical and other supplies and products, we may elect to, or governments may require us to, allocate manufacturing capacity (for example, pursuant to theU.S. Defense Production Act) in a way that adversely affects our regular operations in a manner that may result in adversely affecting our reputation and customer and supplier relationships. ?Resulting cost increases from the effects of a pandemic such as COVID-19 may not be fully recoverable. ?The failure of third parties on which we rely, including our suppliers, customers, contractors, commercial banks and external business partners, to meet their respective obligations to the Company, or significant disruptions in their ability to do so, which may be caused by their own financial or operational difficulties. ?The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty and has led to disruption and volatility in the global credit and financial markets, which increases the cost of capital and adversely impacts access to capital for both the Company and our customers and suppliers. ?Commodity costs have become more volatile due to the COVID-19 outbreak. We expect continued commodity cost volatility, and our commodity hedging program might not sufficiently offset this volatility. ?Disruptions or uncertainties related to the COVID-19 outbreak for a sustained period of time could result in delays or modifications to our strategic plans and initiatives and hinder our ability to achieve our strategic goals.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic, or other outbreaks of disease or similar public health threats, materially and adversely impacts our business, financial condition and results of operations is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments. Such developments may include the geographic spread and duration of the virus, the severity of the disease and the actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the outbreak. In addition, how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can resume cannot be predicted, and the resumption of normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our suppliers, third-party service providers, and/or customers.
