Recent developments and changes in international trade policy, including the implementation of tariffs by the United States government on various countries, has and may continue to impact our expected profitability under certain contracts.

During the first two quarters of 2025, there have been further developments with regard to international trade policy, including implementation of tariffs by the United States government on various countries.

In May 2025, the U.S. and China agreed to a 90-day rollback whereby the United States cut the Chinese levies from 145% to 30% and China lowered the duties on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%, effective May 14, 2025. Also, in May 2025, the Trump administration announced the doubling of steel and aluminum tariffs to 50%. New reciprocal tariffs have also been announced on selected countries that are well above the universal 10% tariff rate.
