Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks MFRI names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Apr 16, 2026: 15 risks under these headings, as written.5

  • Market Condition Risks
  • The Company may be unable to purchase raw materials at favorable prices, or maintain beneficial relationships with its suppliers, which could result in a shortage of supply, or increased pricing .
  • Decreases in government spending on projects using the Company’s products, and challenges to the Company’s customers’ liquidity and availability of capital funds, may adversely impact demand for the Company’s products.
  • Financial Risks
  • The Company may be unable to maintain compliance with existing debt covenants, repay its debt or renew its expiring international credit facilities.
  • The Company may be unable to maintain sustained levels of profitability or positive cash flows in the future.
  • The Company’s inability to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could harm its business and financial results.
  • The Company may experience changes in estimates which could result in a reduction or elimination of previously recorded revenues and profit in connection with "over time" revenue recognition.
  • Business Condition Risks
  • Delays in the timing of order receipt, execution, delivery and acceptance of the Company’s products generally negatively impact the Company’s operating results.
  • The Company may not be able to successfully negotiate progress-billing arrangements on its large-scale contracts, which could adversely impact the Company’s working capital needs, cash flows and credit risk.
  • Aggressive pricing by existing competitors and the entrance of new competitors in the markets in which the Company operates could drive down the Company's profits and reduce the Company's revenue.
The other 6 risks
  • The Company may be subject to claims for damages from defective products.
  • The Company may not be able to recover costs and damages from vendors that supply defective materials.
  • Product and service orders included in the Company’s backlog may be reduced or cancelled.

Legal proceedings

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, including those involving environmental, tax, product liability, and general liability claims. The Company accrues a liability for these matters when it is considered probable that future costs will be incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
