Governance Social Responsibility and Employee Relations
• Adverse Macroeconomic Conditions: Adverse regional macroeconomic and employment conditions could negatively impact home prices and the demand for new construction and remodeling activity.
• Increased Competition from Private-Label Products: MAS faces increased competition from private-label products as major home centers continue to market private-label products to capture incremental value.
• Inability to find acquisitions and divestiture targets: An inability to find and complete suitable acquisitions and divestitures, which will likely impair long-term sales and earnings growth rates, as well as internal returns.
• Increased Commodity Costs: Change in the prices of wood, steel, copper, zinc, oil, fuel, and freight cost could adversely affect the Company’s profitability.
