ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following risk factor updates and supplements, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Consequences of the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
Credit and financial markets have experienced volatility and disruptions due to the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the sanctions that the United States and other countries have imposed on Russia and various related parties in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine. The conflict and the sanctions that have been or may be imposed may have further global economic and other consequences, including diminished liquidity and credit availability, reduced consumer confidence, disruptions to energy and food supplies, decreased economic growth, higher unemployment rates, increased inflation and political and social upheaval. Expansion of the military conflict beyond Ukraine or other retaliatory action, such as cyberattacks, by Russia and its allies in response to sanctions and other measures that the United States and its allies have taken or may take in support of Ukraine, could broaden and intensify the negative impact of the conflict on financial markets, economic conditions and geopolitical stability. The consequences of the conflict could reduce used-car sales and demand for our product, impair the performance of our Loan portfolio, limit our access to capital, intensify other risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, including cybersecurity-related risks, and otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
