In addition, supply chain issues caused by factors including geopolitical conflicts and pandemics have impacted and may in the future impact the availability, pricing and timing for obtaining commodities and raw materials.

If contract manufacturers of our products or other participants in our supply chain experience difficulty obtaining financing to purchase raw materials or to finance capital equipment and other general working capital needs, it may result in delays or non-delivery of shipments of our products.
