New in FY2022

The Company faces various risks related to public health issues, including epidemics, pandemics and other outbreaks, including the global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

New in FY2022

The impact of COVID-19, including changes in consumer behavior, pandemic fears, market downturns and restrictions on business and individual activities, has periodically created significant volatility in the global economy.

New in FY2022

There have been extraordinary actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 in regions throughout the world, including travel bans, quarantines, “stay-at-home” orders and similar mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations.

New in FY2022

Further, as new strains or variants of COVID-19 or other viruses, diseases or public health conditions develop or if sufficient amounts of vaccines or treatments are not available, not widely administered or otherwise prove ineffective, the impact of a widespread public health condition on the global economy, and in turn, our financial condition and operating results could be material.

New in FY2022

The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic or any future widespread public health conditions may impact our employees’ ability to work in proximity to others or travel for work.

New in FY2022

The Company depends on various internal and third party information technologies to administer, store, process and transmit electronic information (including sensitive data such as confidential business information and personal data relating to employees, customers and other business partners) and to support a variety of critical business activities.

New in FY2022

If these systems (or the systems of the Company’s customers or third-party hosting services) are damaged or cease to function properly, or if the Company or third-party hosting service systems are subject to deliberate cyber-security attacks, such as those involving unauthorized access or malicious software, or unintentional cybersecurity incidents, such as those involving systems misconfigurations, misuse or human error and/or other intrusions, the Company, its operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely impacted.

New in FY2022

There has been a rise in the number of cyberattacks targeting confidential business information generally and in the manufacturing industry specifically by both state-sponsored and criminal organizations.

New in FY2022

Moreover, there has been a rise in the number of cyberattacks that depend on human error or manipulation, including phishing attacks or schemes that use social

New in FY2022

engineering to gain access to systems or perpetuate wire transfer or other frauds.

New in FY2022

These trends increase the likelihood of such events occurring as well as the costs associated with protecting against such attacks.

New in FY2022

Any imposition of liability, particularly liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of our insurance coverage, could materially adversely harm our operating results and financial condition.

New in FY2022

In addition, the physical risks of climate change are highly uncertain and differ in the geographic regions in which the Company operates.

New in FY2022

Further, any failure to adequately address stakeholder expectations or to achieve previously announced initiatives or goals with respect to environmental, social and governance matters may adversely impact our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

New in FY2022

For additional detail related to this risk, see Part II, [Item 7A](#i8f3ba310e9604f15b151956624aa7e17_55), "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk."

New in FY2022

The Company owns patents, trademarks, licenses, and other forms of intellectual property related to its products and continuously invests in research and development that may result in technological innovations and general intellectual property rights.

New in FY2022

The Company employs various measures to develop, maintain and protect its intellectual property rights.

New in FY2022

If these measures are not effective, or if the Company’s intellectual property is otherwise infringed, challenged, invalidated or circumvented, the Company may face adverse impacts to its results of operations and/or financial condition.

New in FY2022

Further, if intellectual property is infringed, challenged, invalidated or circumvented, this could reduce barriers to entry into the Company’s existing lines of business and may result in a loss of market share and adversely impact the Company’s competitive position.

New in FY2022

Additionally, the Company has registered intellectual property in multiple countries, and the Company’s ability to protect and enforce its intellectual property rights may be limited in foreign countries due to differences in intellectual property protections or proprietary rights laws.

New in FY2022

If the Company’s intellectual property is infringed, challenged invalidated, or circumvented due to these lesser protections, the Company may face adverse impacts to its results of operations, financial condition, and/or competitive position.

New in FY2022

Litigation may be necessary to enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights or to defend against infringement claims by third parties.

New in FY2022

Any litigation or claims brought by the Company could result in costs and diversion of resources, which could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and/or financial condition.

New in FY2022

Any intellectual property litigation or claims brought against the Company may lead to litigation expenses, diversion of resources, losses or licensing expenses, or the cessation of selling certain products, any of which could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and/or financial condition.

New in FY2022

*The Company May Face Adverse Effects Resulting from Improper Conduct by Our Employees, Agents or Business Partners.*

New in FY2022

New in FY2022

activity by non-U.S. regulators and increases in criminal and civil proceedings brought against companies and individuals.

Dropped from FY2021

The extent to which COVID-19 and the emergence of variant strains continues to impact the Company will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the duration of the outbreak and business closures or business disruptions for the Company, its suppliers and its customers.

Dropped from FY2021

The Company has implemented work-from-home policies for certain “non-essential” employees.

Dropped from FY2021

Although these work-from-home policies have not negatively impacted the Company in any material respect to date, COVID-19 is dynamic and any future resurgences could negatively impact productivity, disrupt conduct of the Company’s business in the ordinary course and delay production timelines.

Dropped from FY2021

The Company depends on various information technologies to administer, store and support multiple business activities.
