Key risks (from latest filing)
["Foreign currency exposure: approximately 41% of revenues are from outside the US, creating vulnerability to dollar strength and unfavorable exchange rates","Commodity price volatility, particularly copper and compounds, which can compress margins if selling price increases cannot keep pace with input cost inflation","Global trade volatility and tariffs can increase input costs and impact competitiveness; recent tariff refund ruling creates regulatory uncertainty"]
