Market prices of wholesale shell eggs are volatile and changes in these prices and costs can adversely impact our results of operations. Changes in consumer demand for shell eggs can negatively impact our business. Feed costs are volatile and changes in these costs can adversely impact our results of operations. Due to the cyclical nature of our business, our financial results from year to year may fluctuate. We purchase approximately 22% of the shell eggs we sell from outside producers and our ability to obtain such eggs at prices and in quantities acceptable to us could fluctuate. Our acquisition growth strategy subjects us to various risks. Our largest customers have historically accounted for a significant portion of our net sales volume. Accordingly, our business may be adversely affected by the loss of, or reduced purchases by, one or more of our large customers. Failure to comply with applicable governmental regulations, including environmental regulations, could harm our operating results, financial condition and reputation. Our business is highly competitive. Pressure from animal rights groups regarding the treatment of animals may subject us to additional costs to conform our practices to comply with developing standards or subject us to marketing costs to defend challenges to our current practices and protect our image with our customers. We are dependent on our management team, and the loss of any key member of this team may adversely affect the implementation of our business plan in a timely manner. Agricultural risks could harm our business. We are controlled by a principal stockholder.
