Risks and Uncertainties

STRATTEC’s operating performance is subject to global economic conditions, inflationary pressures and levels of consumer spending specifically within the automotive industry. In our fiscal year 2023, the inflationary pressures negatively affected the areas of raw materials, purchased materials and wage rates in Mexico, resulting in increased raw material and purchase part costs in the year. While our results for the nine-month period ended March 2024 reflect reduced raw material costs as compared to prior year period, inflationary pressures on purchased materials and wage rates in Mexico persist, thus continuing to negatively impact our operating results for fiscal 2024.

Additionally, unforeseen global economic conditions may adversely impact our supply chain and operations, including impacting our customers, workforce and suppliers, any of which may disrupt and limit sourcing of critical supply chain components needed by us and our customers to meet expected production schedules. Moreover, these events may create added inflationary pressures on our operations, including further increases in wages and the prices of raw materials and purchased parts. All of these foregoing matters, including their scope and duration, are uncertain and cannot be predicted as to timing and cost impacts upon our operations. These changing conditions may also affect the estimates and assumptions made by our management in our financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, our long-lived asset valuations, assessment of our annual effective tax rate, valuation of deferred income taxes, assessment of excess and obsolete inventory reserves, and assessment of collectability of trade receivables.
