Bear-case history
Declining US automotive sales could affect demand for automotive sun control films and PPF, though management sees limited impact due to diversified geographies.
A major PPF customer is setting up its own manufacturing, which could reduce orders. Management downplayed the risk, citing multiple suppliers and strong own-brand growth.
Rising PTA and MEG prices could pressure margins if not fully passed through. Management claims ability to pass on costs due to strong customer relationships.
Ongoing conflicts in the Middle East could disrupt supply chains and demand, though management believes diversified global presence mitigates impact.
