An adverse change in demand could impact our results of operations, collection of accounts receivable, and our expected cash flow generation from current and acquired businesses, which may adversely impact our financial condition and access to capital markets.

If these audits result in assessments different from amounts reserved, future financial results may include unfavorable adjustments, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

However, if as a result of future attacks, our systems are significantly damaged, cease to function properly, or are subject to a significant cybersecurity breach, we may suffer an interruption in our ability to manage and operate the business, and our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

If environmental laws or regulations are either changed or adopted and impose significant operational restrictions and compliance requirements upon us or our products, they could negatively impact our business, capital expenditures, results of operations, financial condition, and competitive position.

We may incur substantial costs, including cleanup costs, fines, and civil or criminal sanctions, liabilities resulting from third-party property damage or personal injury claims, or our products could be prohibited from entering certain jurisdictions if we were to violate or become liable under environmental laws, if our products become non-compliant with environmental laws or if we were to undertake environmental protection actions voluntarily.

As a result of these actions, we will likely continue to incur charges, which may include but are not be limited to asset impairments, employee severance costs, charges for pension and other postretirement contractual benefits and pension settlements, any of which could be significant and could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
