If we do not accurately forecast consumer demand, we may have excess inventory to liquidate or have greater difficulty filling our customers orders, either of which could adversely affect our business. The continued consolidation of retailers, and the leveraged growth in the overall number of stores, increases and concentrates our credit risk. Our business is substantially affected by the weather, and sustained periods of warm and/or dry weather can negatively impact our sales. A decline in consumer spending due to unfavorable economic conditions could hinder our product revenues and earnings. Because we depend on third party manufacturers, we face challenges in maintaining a timely supply of goods to meet sales demand, and we may experience delay or interruptions in our supply chain. Any shortfall or delay in the supply of our products may decrease our sales and have an adverse impact on our customer relationships. Failure to efficiently import foreign sourced products could result in decreased margins, cancelled orders and unanticipated inventory accumulation. Labor disruptions or disruptions due to natural disasters or casualty losses at one of our two distribution facilities or our domestic manufacturing facility could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our financial success may be limited by the strength of our relationships with our retail customers and by the success of such retail customers. We face significant competition and if we are unable to compete effectively, sales of our products may decline and our business could be harmed. We may be unable to meet changing consumer preferences and demands. Changes in the price or availability of raw materials could disrupt our operations and adversely affect our financial results Our failure or inability to protect our intellectual property could significantly harm our competitive position and reduce future revenues. We depend on a limited number of suppliers for key production materials, and any disruption in the supply of such materials could interrupt product manufacturing and increase product costs. In order to be successful, we must retain and motivate key employees, and the failure to do so could have an adverse impact on our business.
