About
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
With respect to the Company’s 2025 adjusted earnings per share guidance, the Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to GAAP because it does not provide specific guidance for the various extraordinary, nonrecurring, or unusual charges and other certain items. These items have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control, and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result, reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measure to GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort, and the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Examples of such forward-looking statements include but are not limited to: (i) statements regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition; (ii) statements of plans, objectives or goals of the Company or its management, including those related to financing, products, or services; (iii) statements of future economic performance; and (iv) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “forecasts,” and “plans,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that the predictions, forecasts, projections, and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. The Company cautions that several important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates, and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include but are not limited to: (i) demand conditions in our end markets, including customer inventory cycles and regulatory developments; (ii) customer concentration and changes in purchasing behavior; (iii) competitive pressures and pricing dynamics; (iv) global economic, geopolitical, trade and tax developments, including tariffs, export controls and other trade measures; (v) supply chain disruption, raw material and energy cost volatility, and availability of critical inputs; (vi) foreign currency fluctuations and hedging effectiveness; (vii) environmental, health and safety, climate-related and other regulatory requirements; (viii) product liability, warranty, recall and litigation risks; (ix) cybersecurity threats, data protection obligations and evolving disclosure requirements; (x) our ability to protect intellectual property and successfully innovate; (xi) pension obligations and related regulatory requirements; (xii) operational disruptions, labor relations and workforce availability; (xiii) our ability to successfully execute acquisitions and strategic initiatives; and (xiv) our level of indebtedness, financing arrangements and covenant compliance.. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors are not exhaustive. These factors are more fully discussed in the sections entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
