If a product fails to comply with the warranty, we may be obligated or compelled, at our expense, to correct any defect by repairing or replacing the defective product. Our customers are increasingly seeking to hold suppliers responsible for product warranties, which could negatively impact our exposure to these costs.
Our warranty generally provides that products will be free from defects and adhere to customer specifications. If a product fails to comply with the warranty, we may be obligated or compelled, at our expense, to correct any defect by repairing or replacing the defective product.
Any failure to successfully integrate such acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If we do not respond appropriately, the evolution of the global transportation industry toward electrification and shared mobility could adversely affect our business.

Removed
Public health crises and other global health pandemics, epidemics or disease outbreaks could adversely impact our business, results of operation and financial condition. A significant public health crisis, pandemic or disease outbreak could adversely impact our business as well as those of our suppliers and customers.
Added
Our inability to continuously improve existing products, develop new products and achieve technological advances could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Removed
For example, the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the global vehicle industry and customer sales, production volumes, supply of components critical to our business, and purchases of commercial, automotive, off-highway and agricultural vehicles by end-consumers. Any future significant public health crisis could adversely impact the global economy, our industry and the overall demand for our products.
Added
On March 6, 2026, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 3”). Amendment No. 3 amends and restates the Credit Facility in its entirety beginning December 31, 2025 and ending at the Credit Facility's amended termination date of July 1, 2027.
Removed
In addition, preventative or reactionary measures taken by governmental authorities may disrupt the ability of our employees, suppliers and other business partners to perform their respective functions and obligations relative to the conduct of our business.
Added
Military conflicts and geopolitical instability in the Middle East, including U.S. and Israeli military actions against Iran, could disrupt global markets and adversely affect our business.
Removed
Our ability to predict and respond to future changes resulting from potential health crises is uncertain as are the ultimate potential impacts on our business. The extent to which a pandemic or similar significant health crises will impact our business in the future is uncertain.
Added
Armed conflicts and heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, including ongoing U.S. and Israeli military operations against Iran, pose risks to the global economy and to our business, even though we do not have direct operations in the region.
Removed
In addition, to the extent such significant health crises may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risk factors in this section.
Added
A significant escalation of hostilities, including any disruption to the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz or other critical shipping lanes, could result in a rapid and sustained increase in global oil and energy prices, which would increase our transportation and logistics costs and the cost of petroleum-based production materials, including resins and certain molded plastic components, used across our manufacturing operations.
Removed
On February 26, 2025, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Waiver ("Amendment No. 1").
Added
Higher energy and fuel prices would also adversely affect our OEM customers and the end markets we serve. Elevated fuel costs have historically reduced demand for commercial vehicles and off-highway equipment, which are the principal markets for our products and accounted for approximately 95% of our net sales in 2025.
Removed
Amendment No. 1 provides for certain financial covenant relief and additional covenant restrictions during the “Covenant Relief Period” (the period ending on the date that the Company delivers a compliance certificate for the quarter ending December 31, 2025).
Added
A sustained increase in fuel prices could lead OEM customers to reduce production volumes, delay new vehicle platform launches, or seek additional pricing concessions from their supply base, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our revenues and profitability.
Removed
In addition, there have been challenges at times in obtaining timely supply of nylon and resins for our Control Devices segment.
Added
In addition, an escalation of military action in the Middle East could disrupt global shipping routes, increase transit times and freight costs for components and raw materials sourced from Asia and Europe, and create broader supply chain bottlenecks similar to those experienced during prior periods of global disruption.
Removed
The global transportation industry is increasingly focused on the development of more fuel-efficient solutions to meet demands from consumers and governments worldwide to address climate change and an increased desire for environmentally sustainable solutions. The impacts of these changes on us are uncertain and could ultimately prove dramatic.
Added
Our business relies on electronic components sourced globally, including semiconductors, microprocessors, and memory devices, would be particularly vulnerable to such supply chain disruptions. Any macroeconomic deterioration resulting from an escalation in Middle Eastern hostilities could compound the existing challenges facing our business and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity.
Removed
If we do not respond appropriately, the evolution toward electrification and other energy sources could adversely affect our business. The increased adoption of electrified and other non-internal combustion-based powertrains may result in lower demand for some of our products.
Added
To estimate the warranty reserves, we must forecast the resolution of existing claims, as well as expected future claims on products previously sold. The costs of claims estimated to be due and payable could differ materially from what we may ultimately be required to pay.
Removed
There has also been an increase in consumer preferences for car and ride sharing, as opposed to automobile ownership, which may result in a long-term reduction in the number of vehicles per capita.
Removed
The evolution of the industry toward electrification and shared mobility has also attracted increased competition from entrants outside of the traditional light vehicle industry, some of whom may seek to provide products which compete with ours.
Removed
Failure to innovate and to develop or acquire new and compelling products that capitalize upon new technologies in response to these evolving consumer preferences and demands could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Product Liability Risks Increased or unexpected product warranty claims could adversely affect us.
Removed
We typically provide our customers a warranty covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products we manufacture. Our warranty generally provides that products will be free from defects and adhere to customer specifications.
Removed
Intellectual Property Risks If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights or maintain our rights to use licensed intellectual property or are found liable for infringing the rights of others, our business could be adversely affected.
Removed
In addition, the interpretation and application of consumer and data protection laws in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere are often uncertain and frequently change.
