Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected if the United States were to withdraw from or materially modify certain international trade agreements, or if tariffs or other restrictions on the foreign-sourced goods that we sell were to increase.

Future terror attacks, war (including the Russia-Ukraine war and Israel-Hamas war), natural disasters, climate change-related events, pandemic diseases (such as COVID-19), or other events beyond our control could adversely impact our businesses.

A substantial portion of our revenues and earnings depends upon the continued willingness of the U.S. Government and other customers in the defense industry to buy our products and services.
