Challenges Ahead

  • The COVID-19 global pandemic has had wide ranging effects on the global health environment and disrupted the global and U.S. economies and financial markets.
  • The pandemic is also impacting our operations, and the full impacts of COVID-19 on our fiscal year 2020 financial results and beyond are uncertain.
  • Continued lower staffing levels and lower employee productivity could impact our ability to achieve anticipated milestones and further affect our 2020 financial results and beyond.
  • Our employees, suppliers, customers, and communities are facing significant challenges, and we cannot predict how the COVID-19 environment will evolve or the impact it will have.
