    • Aluminum prices increased 9 percent year over year with LME prices on a 15-day lag averaging $2,614 per metric ton in 2025. Additionally, the average Midwest premium increased 211 percent year over year largely in response to the tariff on U.S. imports of aluminum from Canada, which were subject to a 25 percent tariff beginning March 12, 2025 until increasing to 50 percent on June 4, 2025 under U.S.

    • All of the beverage containers produced by Ball in the U.S., Canada and Mexico are made of aluminum. In North and Central America, a diverse base of more than seven global suppliers provide almost all of our aluminum can and end sheet requirements .

    • The Company uses various raw materials, such as aluminum and steel in its manufacturing operations, which expose it to risk from adverse fluctuations in commodity prices. In 2025, consumption of aluminum and steel represented 47% and 8% of the Company's consolidated cost of products sold, excluding depreciation and amortization.

    • We are subject to changes in our cost of sales caused by movements in underlying commodity prices. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 66% of our cost of sales consisted of purchased components. A substantial portion of the purchased parts are made of aluminum and steel.

    • Third parties also supply us and our contract manufacturers with the raw materials used in our products and components, including steel, plastic, aluminum, copper, lead, and packaging materials.

    • Our Architectural Glass and Performance Surfaces Segments use float glass as a significant input to their products.

    • The Group is exposed to changes in prices of energy and its main raw materials, primarily aluminum. Aluminum is traded daily as a commodity on the London Metal Exchange, which has historically been subject to significant price volatility.

    • Substantial increases in the prices of raw materials, parts, and components increase our operating 13 Table of Contents costs, and could reduce our profitability if we are unable to recoup the increased costs through higher product prices, improved operating efficiencies, or hedging programs.

    • The principal raw materials used in our products include aluminum cans, packaging components, natural flavors, sweeteners and functional ingredients such as caffeine, vitamins, minerals and botanical extracts. The cost and availability of these materials are subject to market fluctuations.

    • As of December 31, 2025, we had an open position of 48,400 tonnes related to LME forward financial sales contracts to fix the forward LME aluminum price.

    • We rely on a limited number of suppliers for some of these materials, including special grades of aluminum used in our brazed aluminum heat exchangers and compressors included in some of our product offerings.

    • Our primary materials include aluminum, steel, nylon, corrugated cardboard for packaging, metal, plastic and electrical components, and various textiles, foams, and fabrics.

    • The Company estimates a 10% increase in the market prices of its key commodities, including aluminum, PET resin and high-fructose corn syrup, and excluding concentrate, over the current market prices would cumulatively increase costs during the next 12 months by approximately $35 million to $40 million assuming no change in volume.

    • Because some of the limited number of suppliers are located outside the United States, disruptions to the supply chain or tariffs levied on the inputs we purchase may increase input costs. The Company purchases all of the plastic bottles used in its manufacturing plants from Southeastern Container and Western Container, two manufacturing cooperatives the Company co-owns with several other Coca‑Cola bottlers, and all of its aluminum cans from two domestic suppliers.

    • As of February 28, 2026, exposures to commodity price risk which we are currently hedging include aluminum, corn, diesel fuel, and natural gas prices.

    • This increase in Cost of sales was primarily driven by an 18% increase in raw materials and consumables used primarily as a result of higher metal prices and higher sales volumes .

    • These factors have created a competitive and challenging bidding environment, which has impacted Arcadia Products' ability to fully pass through higher input costs, mainly aluminum, which recently reached a multi-year high.

    • CAS purchases the majority of its finished painted aluminum from a single supplier and is subject to fluctuations in the commodity pricing of aluminum.

    • For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the purchased material component of cost of goods sold subject to price risk was approximately $263.1 million. The Company does not actively hedge or use derivative i

    • Packaging – We aim to use widely recyclable packaging materials such as aluminum cans, glass bottles and fiberboard cartons, and we are working to eliminate polyethylene terephthalate ("PET") bottles and single-use plastic rings

    • We experienced significant increases in material costs in 2025, particularly in aluminum prices, which negatively impacted our results.

    • At December 31, 2025, there were no natural gas swaps covering anticipated natural gas usage in 2026 and aluminum swaps covering 6,133 metric tons of aluminum represented approximately 27 % of anticipated aluminum usage for 2026.

    • Our primary manufacturing materials include glass, ionoplast, polyvinyl butyral, and aluminum and vinyl extrusions.

    • The primary raw materials used by High Performance Films are polyethylene and polypropylene resins.

    • The implementation in 2025 of a 25% import tax, which subsequently increased to 50%, on all steel and aluminum entering the U.S. adversely impacted our supply chain and raised operating costs for us in 2025 and is expected to continue to affect our results of operations.
