ITEM 7A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market Prices
Changes in the market price of commodities, including precious metals, critical metals and oil and gas may significantly affect our future profitability and cash flow. Metal and fuel prices fluctuate widely due to factors such as: demand, global production levels, supply chain constraints, investor sentiment, central bank reserves, global conflicts and the value of the U.S. dollar and other currencies.
Interest Rate Risk
The interest rates on our existing long-term debt borrowings are fixed, and as a result, interest due on borrowings are not impacted by changes in market-based interest rates.
