Item 1A. Risk Factors
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2020, which includes a detailed discussion of our risk factors at Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, which discussion is hereby incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1A.
The COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flows and results of operations.
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) declared a global emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and on February 28, 2020, the WHO raised its assessment of the threat from high to very high at a global level. The outbreak has resulted in significant governmental measures being implemented to control the spread of COVID-19, including, among others, restrictions on travel, business operations and the movement of people in many regions of the world in which the Company operates, and the imposition of shelter-in-place or similarly restrictive work-from-home orders impacting many of the Company’s offices and employees, including those located in the United States.
As a result, the Company has temporarily closed or substantially limited the presence of personnel in its offices in several impacted locations, implemented travel restrictions and withdrawn from various industry events. The impact of the Company’s work-from-home policy that was implemented to protect its global workforce has contributed to delays in certain operational processes, including its routine quarterly financial statement close process for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company has also experienced some disruption and delays in its supply chain, customer deployment plans, and logistics challenges, including certain limitations on its ability to access customer fulfillment and service sites. The Company expects these existing conditions to have an adverse impact on its revenue and results of operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and, possibly, in future quarters during the current and next fiscal year.
The COVID-19 pandemic and its potential effects on the Company’s business in its fiscal 2020 remain dynamic, and the broader implications for its business and results of operations remain uncertain. These implications could include further disruptions or restrictions on the Company’s ability to source, manufacture or distribute its products, including temporary disruptions to the facilities of its contract manufacturers in China, Taiwan, Philippines and Singapore, or the facilities of its suppliers and their contract manufacturers globally. Additionally, multiple countries have imposed and may further impose restrictions on business operations and movement of people and products to limit the spread of COVID-19. Delays in production or delivery of components or raw materials that are part of the Company’s global supply chain due to restrictions imposed to limit the spread of COVID-19 could delay or inhibit its ability to obtain the supply of components and finished goods. If COVID-19 becomes more prevalent in the locations where the Company, its customers or suppliers conduct business, or the Company experiences more pronounced disruptions in its operations, the Company may experience constrained supply or curtailed demand that may materially adversely impact its business and results of operations. In addition, any other widespread health crisis that could adversely affect global and regional economies, financial markets and overall demand environment for the Company's products could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, cash flows or results of operations.
The risks in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business and results from operations.
