Item 1A. Risk Factors
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Our business, future financial condition and results of operations are subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties, which are disclosed in Item 1A, entitled Risk Factors in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 as well as any amendments thereto or additions and changes thereto contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Additional information regarding some of those risks and uncertainties is contained in the notes to the condensed financial statements included elsewhere in this report and in Item 2, entitled Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part I of this report. The risks and uncertainties disclosed in our Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other reports filed with the SEC are not necessarily all of the risks and uncertainties that may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations in the future.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors as disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, except as provided in any amendments thereto and those set forth below.
The COVID-19 Pandemic, or the perception of its effects, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
To date, COVID-19 has not had a material adverse impact on our business or results of operations, but due to the uncertainties surrounding this pandemic, it may adversely impact us in the future. We may experience disruptions in our supply chain and critical suppliers may delay or be unable to deliver products we have ordered. Additionally, our customers could reduce planned orders, request cancelations of existing orders and/or delay payment to us due to financial hardship they may experience as a result of this healthcare and resulting economic crisis. Therefore, it is impossible at this time to predict the ultimate short-term or long-term impact of the pandemic on our business.
The ability of our employees to work may be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.
Our employees are being affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Some of our office and management personnel are working remotely, but our employees engaged in manufacturing and assembly are continuing to work at our corporate headquarters. The health of our workforce is of primary concern and we may need to enact further precautionary measures to help minimize the risk of our employees being exposed to the coronavirus. Further, our management team is focused on mitigating the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has required and will continue to require a large investment of time and resources across the entire Company, thereby diverting their attention from other priorities that existed prior to the outbreak of the pandemic. If these conditions worsen, or last for an extended period of time, our ability to manage our business may be impaired, and operational risks, cybersecurity risks and other risks facing us even prior to the pandemic may be elevated.
Late in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we invested an additional approximately $450,000 in marketable securities. Should our investments decline in value, we may be forced to liquidate the investments and realize losses on these investments.
While we intend to hold our investments, which had a fair market value of $4.4 million at March 31, 2020, for the long-term, uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic may require us to liquidate our investments suddenly and, if the markets remain highly volatile, or we have unexpected cash requirements, we may incur losses on future sales of these marketable securities.
