What Changed
Risk factors · Feb 18, 2025 → Feb 24, 202686 added · 101 removed between the two most recent 10-Ks. The risks a company starts — or stops — disclosing are often the story.
Newly disclosed
- For example, the Company’s artificial intelligence efforts may subject it to heightened compliance and legal as well as other risks related to technology integration, accuracy, program bias, data sourcing, intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, data privacy, and cybersecurity, among others.
- For example, in April 2025, China imposed export restrictions on certain rare earth minerals that are used in certain components of the Company’s products, which resulted in delays and shortages of certain components.
- For example, in April 2025, China restricted export of certain rare earth minerals and may in the future continue to restrict, expand restrictions, or stop exporting these or other materials.
- During 2025, the Company recognized a $108.4 million pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge driven by updates to the Company’s brand prioritization strategy impacting the Lenox, Troy-Bilt, and Irwin trade names.
- For example, in 2025 the Company began shifting production of certain power tools to Mexico.
- Moreover, decisions made as part of the Company’s tariff mitigation strategy concerning the rationalization, restructuring or relocation of facilities, production or component sources and any similar actions could also subject the Company to additional or new tariffs or trade regulations and interpretations of those regulations, reputational risks, and other issues relating to the importation of products.
- Even though the Company is taking actions to qualify for an exemption under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement to mitigate the additional tariff costs, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain such qualification.
- While the Company carries cyber insurance, it cannot be certain that coverage will be adequate for liabilities actually incurred, that insurance will continue to be available to the Company on economically reasonable terms, or at all, or that any insurer will not deny coverage as to any future claim. 19 The report, rumor, assumption, or perception of a potential or suspected cybersecurity incident may have similar results, even if no such incident has been attempted or occurred.
- The use of artificial intelligence in the Company’s business operations, products and services could expose it to legal and compliance risks as well as brand or reputational harm and competitive harm, any of which may adversely affect its results of operations.
- While the Company believes the use of artificial intelligence can offer significant benefits and opportunities, it also introduces a range of risks and challenges and there can be no assurances that the use of such technology will result in improved operational efficiencies, cost reductions or other anticipated benefits.
- The regulatory landscape surrounding artificial intelligence is rapidly evolving and the Company’s use of artificial intelligence may be subject to new legal or regulatory requirements, which may impose prohibitions or additional compliance burdens on the Company.
- Moreover, the Company may experience brand or reputational harm if it fails to appropriately manage its use of artificial intelligence in compliance with applicable laws and regulations or successfully execute on strategies leveraging artificial intelligence.
No longer disclosed
- For example, the U.S. government may have contract clauses that permit it to terminate any of the Company’s government contracts and subcontracts at its convenience, and procurement regulations permit termination for default based on the Company’s performance.
- For example, in 2018 the U.S. imposed tariffs on steel and aluminum as well as on goods imported from China and certain other countries, which resulted in retaliatory tariffs by China and other countries.
- The Company may also choose to withdraw planning assumptions or guidan c e, as it did in response to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, or lower planning assumptions or guidance in future periods.
- For example, lawmaking bodies within the EU, United Kingdom, China and India have increased their jurisdictional reach and added a broad array of requirements for handling personal data and product data, including the public disclosure of significant data breaches.
- While the Company carries cyber insurance, it cannot be certain that coverage will be adequate for liabilities actually incurred, that insurance will continue to be available to the Company on economically reasonable terms, or at all, or that any insurer will not deny coverage as to any future claim.
- Each of these factors could negatively impact the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and reputation. 21 Other Risks The Company’s results of operations and earnings may not meet guidance, planning assumptions or expectations.
- Such statements are comprised of forward-looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the Company’s other public filings and public statements, and are based necessarily on assumptions the Company makes at the time it provides such statements, and may not always be accurate.
- If, in the future, the Company’s results of operations for a particular period do not meet its planning assumptions or guidance or the expectations of investment analysts, the Company reduces its planning assumptions or guidance for future periods, or the Company withdraws planning assumptions or guidance, the market price of the Company’s common stock could decline significantly.
- During 2022, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $168.4 million related to the Oil & Gas business.
- Since the Company introduced its goal to invest $30 million over 5 years (by 2027) into programs that train tradespeople, it has invested over $19 million, which includes a mix of its hand and power tools as well as financial support.
- As of December 28, 2024, there were approximately 900 U.S. employees covered by collective bargaining agreements dispersed among 8 different local labor unions, and a majority of European employees are represented by Works Councils.
- In mid-2022, the Company initiated a supply chain transformation designed to return adjusted gross margins to historical 35%+ levels by improving fill rates and better matching inventory with customer demand.
