We currently operate in mature markets where increases or decreases in market share could be significant. Our business strategy includes the pursuit of strategic acquisitions, which may not be successful if they happen at all. General economic factors, domestically and internationally, may adversely affect our financial performance through increased raw material costs or other expenses and by making access to capital more difficult. Fluctuations in the supply and prices of raw materials may negatively impact our financial results. If our products fail to perform as expected, or if we experience product recalls, we could incur significant and unexpected costs and lose existing and future business. We are dependent on key personnel. If we cannot successfully manage the unique challenges presented by international markets, we may not be successful in expanding our international operations. Our results of operations could be adversely affected by uncertain economic and political conditions and the effects of these conditions on our customers' businesses and levels of business activity. Financial market performance may have a material adverse effect on our pension plan assets and require additional funding requirements. Changes in accounting standards and subjective assumptions, estimates and judgments by management related to complex accounting matters could significantly affect our financial results.
