Key risks (continued) > General risks Investment in capital markets The price of Costa Shares on the ASX may rise or fall due to numerous factors, including: I. II. III. Australian and international general economic conditions, including inflation rates, the level of economic activity, interest rates and currency exchange rates; tensions and acts of terrorism in Australia and around the world; and investor perceptions in the local and global markets for listed securities. Costa Shares may trade below the offer price and no assurances can be given that Costa's market performance will not be materially adversely affected by any such market fluctuations or factors. Neither Costa, nor any of its directors or any other person, guarantees Costa's market performance. Changes to accounting standards Australian accounting standards are set by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB). Changes to accounting standards issued by the AASB could materially adversely affect Costa's reported results in any given period or Costa's financial condition from time to time. Tax changes Any change to the taxation of shares (including the taxation of dividends) and the taxation of companies (including the existing rate of company income tax) may adversely impact on Costa shareholder returns, as may a change to the tax payable by Costa shareholders in general. Any other changes to Australian tax law and practice that impact Costa, or the agriculture industry generally, could also have an adverse effect on Costa shareholder returns. General economic risks The operating and financial performance of Costa is influenced by a variety of general economic and business conditions, including inflation, interest rates and exchange rates, supply and demand, industrial disruption, access to debt and capital markets and government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies. Changes in general economic conditions could adversely impact the operating and financial performance of Costa.
