Interest Rate Risk
The Company has certain financing arrangements that require interest payments based on floating interest rates, and to that extent, the Company’s financial results are subject to changes in the market rate of interest. Borrowings under the Amended Loan Agreement bear interest at the Term SOFR, RFR, SONIA, EURIBOR and CORRA-based borrowing rates. Based on current debt levels at June 30, 2026, if market interest rates decrease or increase one percent, the Company’s annual variable interest expense would change by approximately $1.5 million.
The Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement to mitigate the variable interest rate risk under the Amended Loan Agreement, which effectively results in a fixed rate debt on a portion of its outstanding borrowings. Based on current debt levels at June 30, 2026, if market interest rates decrease or increase one percent, the Company's annual fixed rate interest expense on the fair value of the interest rate swap would change by approximately $3.8 million.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries operate in foreign countries and their financial results are subject to exchange rate movements. The Company has operations in Canada and Europe with foreign currency exposure, primarily due to U.S. dollar sales made from businesses in Canada and Europe to customers in the United States. The Company manages its exposure to foreign currency risk by promptly converting funds to U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2026, the Company had no foreign currency arrangements or contracts in place.
Commodity Price Risk
The Company uses certain commodity raw materials, primarily plastic resins, and other commodities, such as natural gas, in its operations. The cost of operations can be affected by changes in the market for these commodities, particularly plastic resins. The Company currently has no derivative contracts to hedge changes in raw material pricing. The Company may from time to time enter into forward buy positions for certain utility costs, which were not material at June 30, 2026. Significant future increases in the cost of plastic resin or other adverse changes in the general economic environment could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
