Each card carries a disclosed-size chip (HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW — how large the exposure is as a share of revenue, not how dangerous it is) and a nature tag: Built-in(the company’s own model, geography, or products) or Outside party (an external customer, supplier, or distributor it relies on).

“10-K Item 1: 'diesel fuel surcharges to our customers and through the use of costless collars. ... we had collars in place for approximately 15% of the gallons we expect to use over the 12 months'”
Performance Food Group's disclosed concentration risk is structural rather than counterparty-driven, and it spans two very different parts of the business. A significant portion of the company's sales volume depends upon the distribution of cigarettes and other tobacco products, a medium-share exposure to a single product category whose demand and regulatory environment differ meaningfully from the rest of the distribution business. Separately, on the cost-management side, the company had costless collars in place for approximately 15% of the diesel fuel gallons it expected to use over the following 12 months, a low-share hedge coverage that leaves the large majority of its fuel needs exposed to spot price movements, mitigated in part by fuel surcharges passed to customers. These two exposures are unrelated in character — one is a demand-side product concentration, the other a cost-side hedging gap — so they do not compound each other, but each represents a distinct channel through which results could diverge from expectations: a shift in tobacco distribution economics on one side, and unhedged diesel price volatility on the other.
