• failure to rapidly identify or effectively respond to direct and/or end customers’ wants, expectations or trends, including costs and potential problems associated with new or upgraded information technology systems or our ability to timely deploy new omni-channel capabilities;

• decreased demand for our products as a result of operating in highly competitive industries and the impact of declines in the residential and non-residential markets and our ability to effectively manage inventory as a result;

• failure of a key information technology system or process as well as payment-related risks, including exposure to fraud or theft;

• privacy and protection of sensitive data failures, including failures due to data corruption, cybersecurity incidents, network security breaches or the use of AI;

• failure to effectively manage and protect our facilities and inventory or to prevent personal injury to customers, suppliers or associates, including as a result of workplace violence;

• unsuccessful execution of our operational strategies;

• failure to attract, retain and motivate key associates;

• exposure of associates, contractors, customers, suppliers and other individuals to health and safety risks and fleet incidents;

• risks associated with acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures and other business combinations, dispositions or strategic transactions;

• risks associated with sales of private label products, including regulatory, product liability and reputational risks and the adverse impact such sales may have on supplier relationships and rebates;

• the failure to achieve and maintain a high level of product and service quality or comply with responsible sourcing standards;

• inability to renew leases on favorable terms or at all, as well as any remaining obligations under a lease when we close a facility;

• changes in, interpretations of, or compliance with tax laws and accounting standards;

• our access to capital, indebtedness and changes in our credit ratings and outlook;

• fluctuations in product prices/costs (e.g., including as a result of the use of commodity-priced materials, inflation/deflation, trade restrictions and/or failure to qualify for or maintain supplier rebates) and foreign currency;

• funding risks related to our defined benefit pension plans;

• legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business as well as any failure to comply with domestic and foreign laws, regulations and standards, as those laws, regulations and standards or interpretations and enforcement thereof may change;

• the occurrence of unforeseen developments such as litigation, investigations, governmental proceedings or enforcement actions;

• our failure to comply with the obligations associated with being a public company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and London Stock Exchange (“LSE”) and the costs associated therewith;
