  • The Company may have difficulty obtaining wood fiber at favorable prices, or at all.

  • The Company could experience disruptions in operations and/or increased labor costs due to labor disputes or occupational health and safety issues.
  • A material disruption in the Company’s supply chain, manufacturing or distribution operations could prevent us from meeting customer demand, reduce its sales and/or negatively impact its results of operations.

The other 23 risks
  • Negative publicity, even if unjustified, could have a negative impact on the Company’s brands and the marketability of its products.

  • Financial Risks
  • The Company has significant levels of debt and may incur substantially more debt. This could increase risks associated with its leverage.
  • The Company’s operations require substantial capital, and it may not have adequate capital resources to provide for all of its capital requirements, or at all.
  • The Company’s ability to generate the significant amount of cash needed to pay interest and principal on the Company’s secured and unsecured long-term indebtedness and service its other debt and financial obligations and its ability to refinance all or a portion of its indebtedness or obtain additional financing depends on many factors beyond the Company’s control.

  • The Company may be subject to losses that might not be covered in whole or in part by its insurance coverage.

  • The Company’s financial results could be affected by changes in U.S. and foreign tax laws or in the mix of its U.S. and foreign earnings, as well as adjustments to its estimates of uncertain tax positions or results from audits by U.S. or foreign tax authorities.
  • The Company’s intellectual property rights are valuable, and any inability to protect them could reduce the value of its products and its brands.
  • Difficulties in the Company's employees’ relations or difficulties identifying, attracting, and retaining employees, could lead to operational disruptions or increased costs.
  • The Company's operations could be adversely affected by disruptions to its IT systems.

Legal proceedings

In the normal course of operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions mostly related to contract disputes, patent infringements, environmental and product warranty claims, and labor issues. The Company periodically reviews the status of these legal proceedings, assesses the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes, and analyzes the probability of losses. Although the final outcome of any legal proceeding is subject to a number of variables and cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, management believes that the ultimate outcomes of current legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s long-term results of operations, cash flow or financial condition. An unanticipated adverse outcome in one or more significant legal proceedings could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in a given quarter or year, however.

For a discussion of commitments, legal proceedings and related contingencies, refer to Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data under, Note 19 “Commitments and Contingencies”.
