1934. The words "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," "could" "predict" and similar

expressions, and the negatives thereof, often identify forward -looking statements,

which are not limited to historical facts. Forward -looking statements include, among

other things, the estimated financial impact of the COVID -19 pandemic, the outlook

and guidance for second quarter 2020 results, the company’s anticipated plans and

responses to the COVID -19 pandemic, statements (express or implied) concerning

future operating results or margins, the ability to generate sales and income or cash

flow, and expected revenue mix; and Benchmark’s business and growth strategies. Although the company believes these statements are based upon reasonable

assumptions, they involve risks and uncertainties relating to operations, markets and

the business environment generally. These statements also depend on the duration and severity of the COVID -19 pandemic and related risks, including government and

business and the businesses of our suppliers and customers. Events relating to or resulting from the COVID -19 pandemic, including the possibility of customer demand

fluctuations, supply chain constraints, or the ability to utilize our manufacturing facilities at sufficient levels to cover our fixed operating costs, may have resulting impacts on the company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and the

company’s ability (or inability) to execute on its plans to respond to the COVID -19

pandemic. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materializes, or underlying

assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those

indicated. Readers are advised to consult further disclosures on these risks and

uncertainties, particularly in Part 1, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of the company's Annual

Report on Form 10 -K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in its subsequent
