 other third parties may withhold the necessary approvals, seek to block or challenge the transactions in the case of certain regulatory authorities, or impose burdensome or costly requirements as conditions to approval. If the required approvals or consents are not received, the other closing conditions are not satisfied or waived, or any of the foregoing is not achieved in a timely manner or on satisfactory terms, then we may need to incur additional costs to complete these transactions, which costs could be significant, or the transactions may be abandoned, delayed or restructured, which would prevent us from realizing the potential benefits of the transactions while still bearing the substantial costs incurred to pursue them.

Even if they close, any efficiencies and benefits we expect from these transactions might be delayed or not realized. Our expectations are based on a number of assumptions, estimates, projections and other uncertainties about, among other things, closing and post-closing payments; purchase price adjustments; transaction-related tax and accounting impacts; performance by the KKR Partners of their respective contractual obligations; transition services and employee matters; the results of operations of SI Partners after the closing of the proposed transactions; and other factors beyond our control. Moreover, the planned decrease in our ownership of SI Partners would also decrease our share of the cash flows, profits and other benefits from this business. Additionally, the KKR Partners collectively would generally have control of SI Partners, subject to certain minority consent rights so long as the minority partners maintain specified ownership thresholds. The KKR Partners may not manage SI Partners in accordance with our current expectations, which could materially adversely affect the value of our minority ownership interest.

Any of these outcomes could materially adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and/or prospects.

Changing conditions in global markets, including the impact of tariffs and other trade actions, may materially and adversely affect us.

Our businesses import various materials, including steel and aluminum, and purchase foreign-sourced goods, such as electrical transformers, from domestic distributors. Sempra Infrastructure also generates a material portion of its earnings from LNG exports to customers located outside the U.S., including countries in Asia and Europe. Our ability to continue importing materials and purchasing foreign-sourced goods at competitive prices and reaching positive FIDs on LNG and other significant projects in development is subject to a number of risks, including adverse impacts on the affordability of projects in development and under construction due to the imposition of tariffs by the U.S. Administration, and adverse impacts caused by (i) legal and regulatory requirements or limitations imposed by foreign governments, including tariffs, quotas or other trade barriers,
