Gen Digital 10-Q

Filing excerpt

Global inflation remains high and government entities may continue their efforts, or implement additional efforts, to combat inflation, which may include continuing to raise interest rate benchmarks or maintaining interest rate benchmarks at elevated levels. Such government efforts, along with other interest rate pressures arising from an inflationary economic environment, could lead to us to incur even higher interest rates and financing costs and have material adverse effect on our business, operating results, profitability and cash flows. For example, recent elevated interest rates have resulted in an increase in our cost of debt.
