Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Astronics names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 26, 2026: 41 risks under these headings, as written.22

  • Market Risks
  • The loss of Boeing as a major customer or a significant reduction in business with this customer would reduce our sales and earnings.
  • The markets we serve are cyclical and sensitive to domestic and foreign economic conditions, conflicts and events, which may cause our operating results to fluctuate.
  • Our products are sold in highly competitive markets.
  • We depend on government contracts and subcontracts with defense prime contractors and subcontractors that may not be fully funded, may be terminated, or may be awarded to our competitors. The failure to be awarded these contracts, the failure to receive funding or the termination of one or more of these contracts could reduce our sales.
  • Contracting in the defense industry is subject to significant regulation, including rules related to bidding, billing and accounting kickbacks and false claims, and any non-compliance could subject us to fines and penalties or possible debarment.
  • Strategic Risks
  • If we are unable to adapt to technological change, demand for our products may be reduced.
  • Our new product development efforts may not be successful, which could result in a reduction in our sales and earnings.
  • We may incur losses and liabilities as a result of our acquisition strategy.
  • Operational Risks
  • Our business and operations could be adversely impacted in the event of a failure of our information technology infrastructure or adversely impacted by a successful cyber-attack.
The other 32 risks
  • Our inability to adequately enforce and protect our intellectual property or defend against assertions of infringement could prevent or restrict our ability to compete.
  • If critical components or raw materials used to manufacture our products or used in our development programs become scarce or unavailable, then we may incur delays in manufacturing and delivery of our products and in completing our development programs, which has damaged, and could continue to damage, our business, results of operations and financial condition.
  • Our financial results could continue to be adversely impacted by the escalation of labor and benefit costs.
  • Price inflation for labor and materials, further exacerbated by political and economic instability could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
  • If our subcontractors fail to perform their contractual obligations, our prime contract performance and our ability to obtain future business could be materially adversely affected.
  • Some of our contracts contain late delivery penalties.
  • Our results of operations are affected by our fixed-price contracts, which could subject us to losses in the event that we have cost overruns.
  • The failure of our products may damage our reputation, necessitate a product recall or result in claims against us that exceed our insurance coverage, thereby requiring us to pay significant damages.
  • Our operations depend on our manufacturing facilities, which are subject to physical and other risks that could disrupt production.
  • We may be subject to work stoppages at our facilities or those of our principal customers and suppliers, which could seriously impact the profitability of our business.
  • The construction of aircraft is heavily regulated, and failure to comply with applicable laws could reduce our sales or require us to incur additional costs to achieve compliance, and we may incur significant expenses to comply with new or more stringent governmental regulation.
  • Financial Risks
  • We have incurred losses in prior fiscal years and our future profitability is not certain.
  • Our Revolving Credit Facility contains financial and restrictive covenants that we may be unable to satisfy, and that, if not satisfied, could result in the acceleration of any outstanding indebtedness thereunder and limit our ability to borrow additional funds.
  • Our inability to raise funds necessary to repurchase, or settle conversions of, our Convertible Notes upon a fundamental change as described in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes, may lead to defaults under such indenture and under agreements governing our existing or future indebtedness.
  • The conditional conversion feature of the Convertible Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
  • Conversion of the Convertible Notes will dilute the ownership interest of existing shareholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock.
  • The amount of debt we have outstanding, as well as any debt we may incur in the future, could have an adverse effect on our operational and financial flexibility.
  • A write-off of all or part of our goodwill or other intangible assets could adversely affect our operating results and net worth.
  • Our future operating results could be impacted by estimates used to calculate impairment losses on goodwill and long-lived assets.
  • Changes in discount rates and other estimates could affect our future earnings and equity.
  • Changes in tax laws and regulations or exposure to additional tax liabilities could adversely affect our financial results.
  • We are subject to financing and interest rate exposure risks that could adversely affect our business, liquidity and operating results.
  • Legal and Compliance Risks
  • We currently are involved in, and may become involved in the future in, legal proceedings that, if adversely adjudicated or settled, could materially and adversely impact our financial condition.
  • Currently, our subsidiary, Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems Corp., is a defendant in actions filed in various jurisdictions by Lufthansa Technik AG relating to an allegation of patent infringement and based on rulings to date, we have concluded that losses related to these proceedings are probable and the amounts of such losses could be substantial.
  • Our operations in foreign countries expose us to political and currency risks and adverse changes in local legal and regulatory environments.
  • Government regulations could limit our ability to sell our products outside the U.S. and could otherwise adversely affect our business.
  • Trade policies, treaties, and tariffs could materially adversely affect our business.
  • We may face reputational, regulatory or financial risks from a perceived, or an actual, failure to achieve our sustainability goals.
  • We are subject to extensive regulation and audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency.
  • We are subject to the requirements of the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual for facility security clearance, which is a prerequisite for our ability to perform on classified contracts for the U.S. Government.
  • General Risks
  • Our future success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of our management team and technical personnel.
  • If we fail to meet expectations of securities analysts or investors due to fluctuations in our sales or operating results, our stock price could decline significantly.

Legal proceedings

Currently, we are involved in legal proceedings relating to allegations of patent infringement and, based on rulings to date, we have concluded that losses related to certain of these proceedings are probable.
