 our products manufactured in Canada that are either shipped to customers with U.S. destinations or shipped to one of our U.S. terminals. However, on March 6, 2025, an executive order was issued that excluded from these tariffs any products that enter the United States duty-free as a good of Canada pursuant to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). As a result, the U.S. tariffs on Canadian imports are currently not applicable to our Canadian production and the cost of the tariffs for the three-day period from March 4, 2025 to March 6, 2025 were not significant to our consolidated results. Subsequent changes to tariffs on imports from Canada, including those announced on July 31, 2025, have maintained duty-free treatment for USMCA-compliant products and therefore U.S. tariffs on Canadian imports continue to not be applicable to our Canadian production.  

On March 12, 2025, the Trump administration reimposed section 232 tariffs on U.S. imports of steel and aluminum products from countries that had negotiated exemptions from those U.S. tariffs (originally imposed in 2018) and applied tariffs to U.S. imports of specified steel and aluminum derivative products from all countries. Effective June 4, 2025, these tariffs were increased to 50%.

On April 2, 2025, additional U.S. tariffs were announced by the Trump administration, consisting of (1) a ten percent tariff on nearly all imports into the United States with certain country (including Canada, Mexico, and Russia) and product exceptions and (2) higher tariffs on more than 50 countries. In accordance with this order, the ten percent tariffs were imposed on April 5, 2025. The higher tariffs on more than 50 countries were imposed on April 9, 2025, and were subsequently paused and then further delayed to August 1, 2025. 

On July 31, 2025, the Trump administration issued an executive order that made several changes to the tariffs imposed in prior executive orders. These changes, effective August 7, 2025, include: (1) increasing tariffs to 15% on certain imports from the European Union; (2) increasing tariffs to 19% or 20% on imports from several Asian countries, including Thailand and Vietnam; and (3) increasing tariffs on many countries that had not negotiated a trade deal with the United States, including 30% tariffs on imports from Algeria
