Item 8.01. Other Events.

Registrant is providing the disclosure below and supplementing the risk factors described in Item 1A of the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2019 (the "Form 10-K") with the following risk factor. The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the risk factors described in the Form 10-K and the information under the "Safe Harbor Statement" in the Form 10-K.

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and other possible pandemics and similar outbreaks, could result in material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, and the various governmental, industry and consumer actions related thereto, are having and could continue to have negative impacts on our business, including potential significant volatility in the demand for our products, changes in customer and consumer behavior and preferences, disruptions in or closures of our manufacturing operations, disruptions within our supply chain, limitations on our employees' ability to work and travel, significant changes in economic or political conditions, and related financial and commodity volatility.

Despite our efforts to manage the impacts, the degree to which COVID-19 and related actions ultimately impact our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows will depend on factors beyond our control including the duration, spread and severity of the outbreak, the actions taken to contain COVID-19 and mitigate its public health effects, the impact on the U.S. and global economies, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions resume.
