For a discussion of additional risks arising from our operations, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in addition to updates contained in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Market risk
We have interest rate and foreign currency market risk. Because of the short-term maturities of our cash and cash equivalents, we believe that an increase in market rates would likely not have a significant impact on the realized value of our investments.
Interest rate risk
We have debt with a mix of fixed and variable rates of interest and we are satisfied with the current fix-float mix of the Company's debt portfolio. Floating rate debt carries interest based generally on the eurocurrency rate, plus an applicable margin. Increases in interest rates could result in an increase in interest payments for our floating rate debt. See Note 9, "Debt" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1, of this Form 10-Q.
From time to time, we may use derivative instruments to manage our interest rate risk and market risk exposure.
We have assessed our exposure to changes in interest rates by analyzing the sensitivity to our operating results assuming various changes in market interest rates. A hypothetical increase of one percentage point in the SOFR rate as of June 30, 2026 would increase our interest expense by approximately $1.5 million annually.
Foreign currency exchange rate risk
We have exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations worldwide and primarily with respect to the Euro, Canadian dollar, Singapore dollar, Swiss franc, British pound and Danish krone. We manage our foreign currency exchange rate risk primarily by either entering into foreign currency hedging transactions or incurring operating expenses in the local currency in the countries in which we operate, to the extent practical. We currently do not hedge all of our foreign currency exchange exposure and the movement of foreign currency exchange rates could have an adverse or positive impact on our results of operations.
