 of operations. Products we sell into certain foreign markets could also become subject to similar retaliatory tariffs, making the products we sell uncompetitive compared to similar products not subjected to such import tariffs. 

The recent enactment of tariffs by the government of the United States, along with the unpredictability of the tariff rates, poses a significant risk to our business operations and may materially increase our costs and reduce our margins. We are continuing to analyze and enact strategies to moderate or minimize the effects of these trade actions, including evaluating the country of origin for sourcing product into the United States and diversifying our supply chain, negotiating with suppliers, and adjusting our pricing strategies. However, there can be no assurance that these measures will be successful, or that they will offset the negative impact of the tariffs on our business. Given the uncertainty regarding scope and duration of the current and potential tariffs, as well as the potential for additional trade actions by the United States or other countries, the specific impact to our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition is uncertain but could be material.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to pressure on our financial covenants arising from the current tariff environment.

The challenging consumer environment, in particular as a result of current tariff implementation in the United States, has adversely impacted and is expected to adversely impact our performance. These factors have placed pressure on our ability to meet the financial covenants in our credit agreements, including the Credit Agreement with East West Bank. Failure to satisfy the debt covenants under our loan facilities, without a timely cure, waiver or amendment, is considered an event of default. If an event of default occurs and is not cured or waived, the lender could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under such agreement immediately due and payable and exercise other remedies as set forth in such agreement. As of March 31, 2025, FGI Industries was not in compliance with certain financial covenants related to its debt coverage ratio in its Credit Agreement with East West Bank. As of the date of this quarterly report, FGI Industries has requested a waiver from the lender, which is being processed by the lender. However, it is possible that the lender could demand repayment of amounts owed or cease to lend to us. This and the other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
