ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
We are exposed to certain risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating results. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described in Part I, Item 1A-Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Recently imposed tariffs and upcoming tariff-related decisions may have a material adverse impact on our business
Beginning in our second quarter of 2025, significant new and expanded tariffs, reciprocal tariffs and other trade restrictions have been imposed with selective tariff exemptions impacting global trade. We purchase or manufacture our products largely in Haiti, China, Madagascar, Vietnam, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Demand for our products may be adversely impacted if we are unable to share the cost increases with our suppliers and third-party manufacturers or pass along the remaining cost increases to our customers. The continuation, expansion, or introduction of U.S. tariffs on countries from which we source and/or manufacture products, such as China and Vietnam, could have a material adverse impact on our revenue, operations, financial position and cash flows.
Additionally, the U.S. has trade agreements and/or preferences with certain countries in Africa, through the African Growth and Opportunity Act ("AGOA"), and with Haiti, through the Haitian Hemispheric Opportunity through Partnership Encouragement Act ("HOPE") and the Haiti Economic Lift Program of 2010 ("HELP"), all of which are set to expire on September 30, 2025, if not renewed or extended. Other trade agreements and/or preferences may expire or be terminated as well. The outcome of these trade agreements and/or preferences could have a material adverse impact on our revenue, operations, financial position and cash flows.
