Note 19 – COVID-19 Developments

In December 2019, COVID-19 surfaced and in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic related to the rapid spread of COVID-19 around the world. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the businesses and the economy in the U.S. and the rest of the world was significant. The Company’s revenues have been adversely impacted since the first quarter of 2020 in global geographies characterized as “hot spots” for the COVID-19 virus and its variants as customers in those locations were limited in their ability to carry out medical procedures or were otherwise limited in their activities by government regulations intended to contain the spread of COVID-19 and variant strains. While many world economies are returning to pre-pandemic levels of business, disruptions from COVID-19 remain a risk, particularly as novel COVID-19 variant strains emerge. The extent to which COVID-19 and its variants may impact medical procedures and lens orders in the future, and the related impact on the Company’s results is uncertain; however, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
