Item 1A. Risk Factors
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition, as well as the price of our stock, can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including those described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 under the heading “Risk Factors.” When any one or more of these risks materialize from time to time, our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition, as well as the price of our stock, can be materially and adversely affected. Below are changes to our risk factors included in our Annual Report From 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Instability in geographies where we have operations and personnel or where we derive amounts of revenue could have a material adverse effect on our business, customers, operations and financial results.
Economic, civil, military and political uncertainty exists and may increase in regions where we operate and derive our revenue. Various countries in which we operate are experiencing and may continue to experience military action and civil and political unrest. We have operations in the emerging market economies of Eastern Europe, previously including operations in Belarus, utilizing employees and contractors who perform services relating to new product releases. In late February 2022, Russian military forces launched significant military action against Ukraine. Sustained conflict and disruption in the region is likely. The impact to Belarus, Russia and Ukraine, as well as actions taken by other countries, including new and stricter export controls and sanctions by Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, the U.S. and other countries and organizations against officials, individuals, regions, and industries in Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, and each country’s potential response to such sanctions, tensions and military actions, could have a material adverse effect on our product development timelines and increase our research and development expenditure. Material adverse effects from the conflict and enhanced sanctions activity has caused us to transition our operations out of Belarus to other countries. We are actively monitoring the security of our remaining employees and contractors in Eastern Europe and the stability of our infrastructure, including communications and internet availability. To date we have not experienced any material interruptions in our operations there, but if we are unable to effectively replicate the capabilities previously provided by our Belarusian operations in other countries, our ability to timely introduce new products and financial results may be harmed.
