REASONS FOR THE OFFER AND USE OF PROCEEDS Not applicable for annual reports on Form 20-F. D. RISK FACTORS An investment in our ordinary shares involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following risk factors, as well as the other information contained in this annual report, before making an investment in our ordinary shares. Any of the risk factors described below could significantly and negatively affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, these risks represent important factors that can cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. Risks Related to Our Business and Industry Tariffs could materially have a negative impact on the demand for our products. Import tariffs, other trade barriers, and protectionist policies could negatively affect steel prices and our exports to international markets, particularly the United in foreign steel markets. For example, our PRC operating entities might anticipate a significant increase in the cost of goods to be sold to the United States as a result of tariffs on steel and steel products imports imposed by the US government. The US government imposed a 25% tariff on steel imports and a 10% tariff on aluminum imports in March 2018 under "Section 232" from nearly all foreign countries. In addition to the Section 232 tariff, the US government has imposed hefty anti-dumping and subsidy countervailing duties on a wide range of steel imports from China. With regard to our company in particular, the Section 232 tariff had a limited effect on our U.S. sales, because the tariffs on our exports to the United States had already reached 25% before 2018.
