Risk exposure broadened across five themes with no meaningful offsets, driven by realized tariff impacts, concrete M&A integration obligations, and escalating cyber threats. Trade risk moved from hypothetical to actual with USMCA renewal uncertainty layered on top, while two 2025 acquisitions (Duro Dyne, Supco) convert integration risk from prospective to live. AI-enabled cyber threats and new AI regulatory compliance obligations compound an already elevated technology risk profile.
