“10-K Item 1A: 'approximately 37% of our fiscal 2024 sales derived from non-U.S. operations'”
“10-K Item 1A: 'our operations in Russia accounted for approximately 3% of our net sales'”
The company's disclosed concentration profile is geographic, combining a moderate-share international revenue exposure and a small-share Russia-specific exposure. Non-U.S. operations accounted for approximately 37% of fiscal 2024 sales — a moderate share by disclosed size that is structural in character, reflecting the company's global industrial packaging footprint spread across multiple regions. This portion of revenue is subject to currency translation effects, regional economic cycles, and local regulatory conditions, but the exposure is diffuse rather than pinpointed to any single country in the broader international segment. Separately, operations in Russia accounted for approximately 3% of net sales — a small share by disclosed size that is also structural in character, representing a discrete country-level sub-exposure within the international segment. At that scale, the Russia exposure is limited in its direct financial weight, though it carries geopolitical and sanctions-related complexity that distinguishes it qualitatively from other international markets, regardless of its size. No customer concentration, supplier dependency, or product-line skew is disclosed alongside these geographic exposures. On balance, the profile is dominated by the moderate-share international geographic exposure, with the Russia sub-exposure representing a small and qualitatively distinct risk layer. The primary watch variables are international economic conditions and currency movements broadly, with Russia requiring periodic monitoring for sanctions developments given its distinct risk character.
