Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Innospec names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 18, 2026: 27 risks under these headings, as written.16

  • Global Conditions
  • Competition and market conditions may adversely affect our operating results.
  • Continuing adverse global economic conditions could materially affect our current and future businesses.
  • Domestic or international natural disasters or terrorist attacks may disrupt our operations, decrease the demand for our products or otherwise have an adverse impact on our business.
  • Our business and operations have been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks of disease and other adverse public health developments, including coronaviruses.
  • Business Operations
  • We face risks related to our foreign operations that may adversely affect our business.
  • We may not be able to consummate, finance or successfully integrate future acquisitions, partnerships or other opportunities into our business, which could hinder our strategy or result in unanticipated expenses and losses.
  • Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.
  • An information technology system failure may adversely affect our business.
  • Our ability to monitor and manage our business performance is dependent upon the effectiveness of our information technology systems.
  • Decline in our AvGas business.
The other 17 risks
  • Failure to protect our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our future performance and cash flows.
  • Industry Matters
  • Trends in oil and gas prices affect the level of exploration, development and production activity of our customers, and the demand for our services and products, which could have a material adverse impact on our business.
  • We could be adversely affected by technological changes in our industry.
  • Sharp and unexpected fluctuations in the cost of our raw materials and energy could adversely affect our profit margins.
  • Legal, Regulatory and Tax Matters
  • We are subject to extensive regulation of our international operations that could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
  • We may have additional tax liabilities.
  • Our products are subject to extensive government scrutiny and regulation.
  • Legal proceedings and other claims could impose substantial costs on us.
  • Environmental liabilities and compliance costs could have a substantial adverse impact on our results of operations.
  • We may be exposed to certain regulatory and financial risks related to climate change.
  • Key Third-Party Relationships
  • Having a small number of significant customers may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.
  • A disruption in the supply of raw materials or transportation services would have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.
  • The inability of counterparties to meet their contractual obligations could have a substantial adverse impact on our results of operations.
  • Finance and Investment
  • We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which may adversely affect our results of operations.
  • A high concentration of significant stockholders may have a material adverse impact on our stock price.
  • Our amended and restated by-laws designate specific Delaware courts as the exclusive forum for certain litigation that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.
  • The provisions of our revolving credit facility may restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness or to otherwise expand our business.

Legal proceedings

Legal matters

We are involved from time to time in claims and legal proceedings that result from, and are incidental to, the conduct of our business including business and commercial litigation, and employee and product liability claims.

As reported in the 2023 Form 10-K, we have incurred financial losses and lodged a civil and criminal legal claim related to a misappropriation of inventory in Brazil. At the time of filing, there have been no significant developments to report in relation to the claims being made. Consistent with prior quarters, a corresponding asset for the potential legal or insurance recoveries has not been recorded for the resulting financial losses arising from this matter.

In addition, unrelated to the Brazil matter, in the unlikely event there are an unexpectedly large number of individual claims or proceedings with an adverse resolution, this could in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the results of operations for a particular year or quarter.
