o Impending bankruptcy or financial liquidity problems;
o Gain or loss of a significant customer or supplier;
o Significant energy generation or supply problems;
o Significant pricing changes;
o Stock splits and stock repurchase programs;
o New equity or debt offerings;
o Significant litigation exposure due to actual or threatened litigation; and
o Changes in senior management.
