Adverse weather conditions and other environmental impacts (such as climate change and extreme weather) may impact our operations and the demand for some of our products, which could negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our road technologies product line is seasonal in nature, with roughly 70 to 75 percent of revenue generated between April and September each year. Adverse weather conditions, which directly affect the ability to engage in paving and/or road marking activity, have had, and going forward may have, an adverse effect on sales in the road technologies product line if such conditions result in lower customer demand due to a shortened season.

Increasing weather-related impacts on our operations and plant sites may impact the cost or availability of insurance. Furthermore, the potential impact of climate change and related regulations on our suppliers and customers is highly uncertain and there can be no assurance that it will not have an adverse effect on the availability over time of our suppliers’ and customers’ businesses, and on our financial condition and results of operations.

Financial and Economic Risks

We may be adversely affected by general global economic and financial conditions beyond our control.

Our businesses may be affected by a number of factors that are beyond our control such as general economic and business conditions, changes in tax laws, or tax rates and conditions in the financial services markets including counterparty risk, insurance carrier risk, rising interest rates, inflation, deflation, fluctuations in currencies, which factors may negatively impact our ability to compete. Macroeconomic challenges, including conditions in financial and capital markets and levels of unemployment, and the ability of the U.S. and other countries to deal with their rising debt levels, may continue to put pressure on the economy or lead to changes in tax laws or tax rates. There can be no assurance that changes in tax laws or tax rates will not have a material impact on our future cash taxes, effective tax rate, or deferred tax assets and liabilities. Adverse developments in global or regional economies could drive an increase or decrease in the demand for our products that could increase or decrease our revenues, increase or decrease our manufacturing costs, and ultimately increase or decrease our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. As a result of negative changes in the economy, customers, vendors
