Declines in value and other factors pertaining to the company s inventory could materially adversely affect its business. The company is subject to environmental laws and regulations that could materially adversely affect its business. The company is currently involved in the investigation and remediation of environmental matters at two sites as a result of its Wyle Electronics acquisition, and the company is in litigation related to those sites. The company may not have adequate or cost-effective liquidity or capital resources. The agreements governing some of the company s financing arrangements contain various covenants and restrictions that limit some of management s discretion in operating the business and could prevent the company from engaging in some activities that may be beneficial to its business. The company s failure to have long-term sales contracts may have a material adverse effect on its business. A large portion of the company s revenues comes from the sale of semiconductors, which, in the past, has been a cyclical industry. The company s non-U.S. sales represent a significant portion of its revenues, and consequently, the company is increasingly exposed to risks associated with operating internationally. When the company makes acquisitions, it may not be able to successfully integrate them. The company s goodwill and identifiable intangible assets could become impaired, which could reduce the value of its assets and reduce its net income in the year in which the write-off occurs. If the company fails to maintain an effective system of internal controls or discovers material weaknesses in its internal controls over financial reporting, it may not be able to report its financial results accurately or timely or detect fraud, which could have a material adverse effect on its business. The company relies heavily on its internal information systems, which, if not properly functioning, could materially adversely affect the company s business. The company may be subject to intellectual property rights claims, which are costly to defend, could require payment of damages or licensing fees and could limit the company s ability to use certain technologies in the future.
