has been actively monitoring the COVID-19 situation and its impact globally.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>The impact of COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread are affecting our business in a number of ways.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>We have experienced increased volatility in demand for some of our products as consumers adapt to the evolving environment.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>We have also experienced incidents of supply chain disruption and increased currency and commodity volatility.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>We expect the ultimate significance of the impact on our financial and operational results will be dictated by the length of time that such circumstances continue, which will depend on the currently unknowable extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and any governmental and public actions taken in response.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>COVID-19 also makes it more challenging for management to estimate future business performance, particularly over the near term.<\/i>\n      <\/p>\n<p>\n        <i>Certain matters contained in this news release concerning the outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, raw material, energy and other input costs, anticipated currency rates and exchange risks, including in <span class=\"xn-location\">Argentina<\/span>, net income from equity companies, sources and uses of cash, the effective tax rate, the anticipated cost savings from the company&#8217;s FORCE program, charges and savings from the 2018 Global Restructuring Program, growth initiatives, product innovations, contingencies and anticipated transactions of the company constitute forward-looking statements and are based upon management&#8217;s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the company.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>In addition, many factors outside our control, including pandemics (including the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak), epidemics, failure to realize the expected benefits or synergies from the Softex Indonesia acquisition, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the prices and availability of our raw materials, potential competitive pressures on selling prices for our products, energy costs, our ability to maintain key customer relationships, as well as general economic and political conditions globally and in the markets in which we do business, could affect the realization of these estimates.<\/i>\n      <\/p>\n<p>\n        <i>There can be no assurance that these future events will occur as anticipated or that the company&#8217;s results will be as estimated.\u00a0 <\/i><br \/>\n        <i>Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update them.\u00a0 <\/i><br
