Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Conditions
Adverse changes in the global economic landscape have impacted, and may continue to affect, the demand for our products. This impact includes alterations in customer order behaviors, such as cancellations, and shifts in vendor inventory levels.
Commodity Risk
We face exposure to market price fluctuations of specific commodity raw materials, notably gold, which are integrated into our end products or utilized by our suppliers in production. Rising commodity prices result in increased costs passed on to us by suppliers, either through general price hikes or commodity surcharges. While our interactions with suppliers typically occur through purchase orders rather than long-term contracts, we strive to secure firm pricing aligned with planned production volumes.
