conditions in the financial and banking markets, including fluctuations in exchange rates and the inability to repatriate foreign cash,
general and international recessionary economic conditions, including the impact, length and degree of downturns or slow growth
conditions on the customers and markets we serve and more specifically conditions in the food service equipment, automotive,
construction, aerospace, energy, transportation and general industrial markets, lower-cost competition, the relative mix of products
which impact margins and operating efficiencies, both domestic and foreign, in certain of our businesses, the impact of higher raw
material and component costs, particularly steel, petroleum based products and refrigeration components, an inability to realize the
expected cost savings from restructuring activities, effective completion of plant consolidations, cost reduction efforts, restructuring
including procurement savings and productivity enhancements, capital management improvements, strategic capital expenditures, and
the implementation of lean enterprise manufacturing techniques, the inability to achieve the savings expected from the sourcing of raw
