From time to time, we expect to be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking in merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We are not aware of any claim that is reasonably possible and should be disclosed or probable and for which a provision should be established in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Also, if applicable, we record undiscounted receivables for probable loss recoveries from insurance or other parties. We are not aware of any material claim that is reasonably possible and should be disclosed in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
