disclosure or misuse of confidential or proprietary information, including sensitive customer, vendor, employee or investor
information maintained in the ordinary course of our business. Any such event could cause damage to our reputation, loss of
valuable information or loss of revenue and could result in large expenditures to investigate or remediate, to recover data, to repair
or replace networks or information systems, or to protect against similar future events.
If we are unable to hire, develop or retain key employees or a skilled and diverse workforce, it could have an adverse effect on
our business.
Our strategy includes a focus on hiring, developing and retaining our management team and a skilled and diverse international
workforce. A skilled and diverse international workforce is a significant factor in developing product innovation, as well as
providing key viewpoints representative of our international consumer base. We compete to hire new employees and then seek
to train them to develop their skills. We may not be able to successfully recruit, develop and retain the key personnel that we need.
Unplanned turnover or failure to develop an effective succession plan for our leadership positions, or to hire and retain a diverse,
skilled workforce, could increase our operating costs and adversely affect our results of operations.
Changes in the policies of our retail trade customers, increasing dependence on key retailers in developed markets, and the
emergence of new sales channels may adversely affect our business.
