Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our business has many risks. Factors that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results or liquidity and the trading price of our common stock are described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2021 Form 10-K and the additional risk factor provided below, which supplements the risk factors included in our 2021 Form 10-K. This information should be considered carefully, together with other information in this report and other reports and materials we file with the SEC.
The conflict in Ukraine and related price volatility and geopolitical instability could negatively impact our business**.**
In late February 2022, Russia launched significant military action against Ukraine. The conflict has caused, and could intensify, volatility in natural gas, oil and NGL prices, and the extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions could be significant and could potentially have a substantial negative impact on the global economy and/or our business for an unknown period of time. Any such volatility and disruptions may also magnify the impact of other risks described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2021 Form 10-K.
