initiatives, our business could be adversely affected; risks
associated with cost overruns on fixed-fee projects and in taking
customer orders for large complex custom engineered products; the
substantial dependence of our sales on the success of the oil and
gas, chemical, power generation and water management industries;
the adverse impact of volatile raw materials prices on our products
and operating margins; economic, political and other risks
associated with our international operations, including military
actions, trade embargoes, epidemics or pandemics or changes to
tariffs or trade agreements that could affect customer markets,
particularly North African, Russian and Middle Eastern markets and
global oil and gas producers, and non-compliance with U.S.
export/re-export control, foreign corrupt practice laws, economic

circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud; the recording of
increased deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future or
the impact of tax law changes on such deferred tax assets could
affect our operating results; our information technology
infrastructure could be subject to service interruptions, data
corruption, cyber-based attacks or network security breaches, which
