Market Conditions and Current Developments

Government Policies 

Since January 20, 2025, the Trump administration has imposed, modified and proposed additional tariffs on a range of products from most countries around the world and has negotiated and is negotiating tariff and trade agreements that have resulted and will continue to result in changes to existing tariffs and other trade policies in the United States and globally. Since March 6, 2025, the United States has excluded from tariffs any products that enter the United States duty-free as a good of Canada pursuant to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, such that U.S. tariffs on Canadian imports are currently not applicable to our Canadian production.

Negotiations between the United States and several countries are ongoing that may change the magnitude, the timing or other aspects of tariffs between these countries. In addition, some of these tariffs have been the subject of litigation, which is ongoing, and may result in the elimination of, or other changes to, some tariffs. In particular, the U.S. Supreme Court is reviewing the imposition of reciprocal tariffs and tariffs on Canada and Mexico, pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, with a decision expected in 2026.

Any of the proposed or enacted tariffs and changes to U.S. trading policies may be reinstituted, paused, removed or changed at any time and may be done unpredictably and without notice. Retaliatory tariffs or other imposition of taxes and duties on U.S. exports to trading partners may also be significant and unpredictable.

Any imposed tariffs or the prospect of any retaliatory tariffs on U.S. exports, changes in U.S. trade policy or changes in other countries’ trade policies with the United States has and may continue to lead to uncertainty in the global marketplace, impact the supply and demand balance in many regions, and increase the cost of capital equipment and other supplies, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
