ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Principal Risk Factors
These are the risks that we see as most material to Unilever's
business and performance at this time. There may be other risks
that could emerge in the future.
We also comment below on certain mitigating actions that we
believe help us to manage these risks. However, we may not be
successful in deploying some or all of these mitigating actions. If
the circumstances in these risks occur or are not successfully
mitigated, our cash flow, operating results, financial position,
business and reputation could be materially adversely affected. In
addition, risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to
vary from those described, which may include forward-looking
statements, or could impact on our ability to meet our targets or
be detrimental to our profitability or reputation.
