We could experience adverse impacts from public health emergencies in a number of ways, including, but not limited to, the following:

•supply chain delays or disruptions due to closed supplier facilities or distribution centers, reduced workforces, scarcity of raw materials and scrutiny or embargoing of goods produced in infected areas; 

•shutdown of our manufacturing facilities due to illness or government order;

•reduced consumer demand for certain of our products as a result of any related economic downturn or restrictions on in-person purchases; 

•change in demand for or availability of our products as a result of retailers or distributors modifying their restocking, fulfillment, or shipping practices in reaction to public health emergencies;

•decrease in our ability to develop innovative products due to reprioritization of suppliers and/or retailers;

•increase in working capital needs and/or an increase in trade accounts receivable write-offs as a result of related increased financial pressures on our suppliers or customers;

•impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or intangible assets or a change in the useful life of finite-lived intangible assets from sustained related changes in consumer purchasing behaviors, government restrictions, or financial results; 

•increase in raw material and other input costs resulting from related labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and market volatility; and

•fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates resulting from market uncertainties. 

The extent to which a pandemic, and any related economic downturn, could affect our business, results of operations and financial condition depends on developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the severity and duration of any outbreak and recovery period, the availability, acceptance and efficacy of vaccines, future actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to a pandemic and the impact on our customers, employees and suppliers, distributors and other service providers.  Moreover, the effects of a pandemic could exacerbate the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Consumption trends for our products may not correlate to our results of operations.

We regularly review and may disclose certain consumption levels to provide an indication of the strength of our expected results of operations.  Total company consumption is based on U.S. domestic IRI multi-outlet + C-store retail sales for the relevant period, retail sales from other third parties for certain e-commerce sales in North America, Australia consumption based on IMS data and other international net revenues as a proxy for consumption.
