Note 28 – Subsequent Events

Beginning in early 2020, there has been an outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19), initially in China and which has spread to other jurisdictions, including locations where the Company does business. The full extent of the outbreak, related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread are uncertain as of the date of the Report as this continues to evolve globally. Therefore, the full extent to which coronavirus may impact the Company’s results of operations, liquidity or financial position is uncertain. This outbreak has already had a material disruption on the operations of the Company and its suppliers and customers. Management continues to monitor the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on the Company, the specialty chemical industry and the economies in which the Company operates. The Company anticipates that its future results of operations, including the results for 2020, will be materially impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, but at this time does not currently expect that the impact from the coronavirus outbreak will have a material effect on the Company’s liquidity or financial position. However, given the speed and frequency of continuously evolving developments with respect to this pandemic, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the magnitude of the impact to its results of operations, and, if the outbreak continues on its current trajectory, such impacts could grow and become material to its liquidity or financial position. To the extent that the Company’s customers and suppliers continue to be materially and adversely impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, this could reduce the availability, or result in delays, of materials or supplies to or from the Company, which in turn could materially interrupt the Company’s business operations.

There were no other subsequent events which would require additional disclosures to the financial statements, except for those already disclosed throughout the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
