Item 1A. Risk Factors
We face a number of significant risks and uncertainties in connection with our operations. Our business and the results of our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by these risk factors. There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in our 2025 Form 10-K, other than as set forth below in this Item 1A.
Geopolitical conflicts and instability in the Middle East and other regions could adversely affect our business. We operate in a global environment that is subject to political and economic instability, armed conflicts, and other geopolitical risks, including in particular, the ongoing and potential conflicts in the Middle East, including those involving Iran and neighboring countries. These regional conflicts and related geopolitical tensions may result in a number of adverse consequences for our operations, including disruptions to our supply chain and logistics networks, restrictions on transactions involving certain territories, entities, or individuals, and increased costs of raw materials, commodities, energy, and other inputs. In addition, the conflicts in the Middle East have caused significant disruption in the normal flow of oil, refined petroleum products, and related commodities, resulting in increases to the price of oil and gasoline. The increased prices of oil and gasoline will increase energy and transportation costs across our supply chain and, if prolonged, could shift consumer preferences toward smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles, which could weaken the demand for our higher margin vehicles, such as full-size ICE SUVs and pickup trucks. The foregoing risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.
