  • Work stoppages and other disruptions at transportation centers or shipping ports, along with other supply chain disruptions, may adversely affect our ability to obtain inventory and make deliveries to our customers.
  • Changes in our customers, product mix and pricing strategy could cause our gross profit margin percentage to decline in the future.
  • Disruptions of our information and communication systems could adversely affect the Company.
  • Cyber-attacks or other information security incidents could have a material adverse effect on our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition and subject us to additional legal costs.

  • The inability to successfully recruit, integrate and retain productive sales representatives could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
  • Failure to retain talented employees, managers and executives could negatively impact our business and operating results.
  • There may be difficulties in integrating certain operations of businesses we acquire with our other operations, and the failure to successfully combine those operations within our expected timetable could adversely affect our future results and the market price of our common stock.

  • We operate in highly competitive markets.
The other 21 risks
  • We may be required to recognize impairment charges for goodwill and other intangible assets.

  • We are required to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and any adverse results from such evaluation, and any failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, could result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports and could have an adverse effect on our stock price.
  • Debt Financing Risks
  • We have a significant amount of indebtedness, and our significant indebtedness could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
  • Failure to adequately fund our operating and working capital needs through cash generated from operations and borrowings available under our Amended Credit Agreement could negatively impact our ability to invest in our business and maintain our capital structure.
  • Our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected if we failed to meet the covenant requirements of our Amended Credit Agreement.
  • Government efforts to combat inflation, or other interest rate pressures, could lead to higher financing costs.
  • Common Stock Risks
  • The market price of our common stock may decline.
  • Entities affiliated with LKCM and J. Bryan King beneficially own a significant majority of the outstanding DSG common stock and, therefore, have significant influence over our Company, which could delay or deter a change in control or other business combination or otherwise cause us to take actions with which you may disagree.
  • Entities affiliated with LKCM beneficially own a significant number of shares of DSG common stock, and any sales of any such shares or the possibility of any such sales could have a negative effect on the price of DSG common stock.

  • Our results of operations could be affected by changes in taxation.

  • Our ability to use our net operating losses and certain other tax attributes may be subject to limitations.

  • Public health emergencies, whether domestic or international, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, may materially adversely affect our business strategy, financial condition or results of operations.
  • General Risks
  • Our results of operations may be adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy or in certain sectors of the economy.
  • Changes in energy costs, tariffs, transportation costs and the cost of raw materials used in our products, and other inflationary pressures, could impact our cost of goods and distribution and occupancy expenses, which may result in lower operating margins.
  • Enhanced tariffs, changes in trade policies and changes in import and export regulations of U.S. and foreign governments may have a negative effect on global economic conditions, financial markets and our cost of goods, which may result in lower operating margins.
  • Supply chain constraints, inflationary pressure and labor shortages could impact our cost of goods and other costs and expenses, which may result in lower gross profit margins and/or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
  • The Company is exposed to the risk of foreign currency changes.
