Uncertainties and trends affecting our business
We believe that the North American beverage market is influenced by certain key trends and uncertainties. See Section 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report for more information about the risks and uncertainties facing us.
Some of these items, such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the invasion ofUkraine byRussia , and the resulting impacts on the global economy, including supply chain constraints and labor shortages, have led to inflation in input costs, logistics, manufacturing and labor costs. During the first six months of 2022, we have experienced supply chain disruptions and a significant inflationary impact compared to the prior year period. These impacts have created headwinds for our products that we expect to continue through the remainder of 2022.
Due to these inflationary pressures, we have increased the prices of a number of our products across our portfolio. As a result, we may experience reduced volume or net sales which, combined with inflationary pressures, could impact our margins and results of operations.
Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for our discussion of how we manage our exposure to commodity risk.
