COVID-19
Pandemic
In December 2019, a strain of coronavirus causing a disease known as
COVID-19
surfaced in Wuhan, China, resulting in significant disruptions among Chinese manufacturing and other facilities and travel throughout China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the
COVID-19
outbreak a pandemic. Governmental authorities throughout the world have implemented numerous containment measures, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines,
shelter-in-place
orders, and business restrictions and shutdowns, resulting in rapidly changing market and economic conditions. Although some of these restrictions and other containment measures have since been lifted or scaled back, ongoing surges of
COVID-19
have in some cases resulted in the
re-imposition
of certain restrictions and containment measures, and may continue to lead to other restrictions being
re-implemented
in the foreseeable future in response to efforts to reduce the rapid spread of
COVID-19.
 
The Company experienced some minor disruption in its Power Solutions business from assembly and test subcontractors located in China in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of the
COVID-19
pandemic. To date, its external Display Solutions business contractors and
sub-contractors
have not been materially impacted by the
COVID-19
pandemic. The Company is, however, unable to accurately predict the full impact that the
COVID-19
pandemic will have on its future results of operations due to numerous uncertainties. The extent to which the
COVID-19
pandemic impacts the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which, despite progress in vaccination efforts, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the
COVID-19
pandemic, such as new strains of the virus that may emerge, which may impact rates of infection and vaccination efforts, developments or perceptions regarding the safety of vaccines and the extent and effectiveness of actions to contain the
COVID-19
pandemic or treat its impact, including vaccination campaigns and lockdown measures, among others. In addition, recurrences or additional waves of
COVID-19
cases could cause other widespread or more severe impacts depending on where infection rates are highest. The Company cannot presently predict the scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, but if the Company or any of its customers and suppliers were to experience prolonged business shutdowns or other disruptions, its ability to conduct its business could be materially and negatively affected, which could have a material adverse impact on its business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Company continues to closely monitor and evaluate the nature and scope of the impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic to its business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition, and may take further actions altering its business operations and managing its costs and liquidity that the Company deems necessary or appropriate to respond to this ongoing and uncertain global health crisis and the resulting global economic consequences.
