SharonAI Holdings Inc. 10-Q

Item 1A. Risk Factors Risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026 (“Annual Report”). Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report. You should carefully consider the risks described in our Annual Report, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations could be negatively affected. Changes to United States trade, tariff, import/export regulations or AI-related laws which may require SharonAI to restrict or terminate customer relationships The United States has recently enacted and proposed to enact significant new tariffs. Additionally, President Trump has directed various federal agencies to further evaluate key aspects of U.S. trade policy and there has been ongoing discussion and commentary regarding potential significant changes to U.S. trade policies, sanctions, export controls, treaties, tariffs, national security and the use and deployment of artificial intelligence technologies. There continues to exist significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the U.S. and other countries with respect to such trade policies, sanctions, export controls, treaties, tariffs, national security and the use and deployment of artificial intelligence technologies. These developments, or the perception that any of them could occur, may have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global trade and, in particular, trade between the impacted nations and the U.S. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and restrict the Company’s access to suppliers or customers and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, the United States has proposed and implemented laws and policy measures that restrict the provision of AI related technology, services or infrastructure to entities connected with certain countries and jurisdictions. If new or expanded US or any other foreign government laws, regulations or government directives are introduced, or existing measures are amended or interpreted more restrictively, the Company may be required to limit, suspend or terminate its ability to provide services to certain customers, including customers that are otherwise compliant under Australian law. This may occur with limited notice and irrespective of existing contractual arrangements. The termination or restriction of customer relationships could result in lost revenue, contract disputes, increased compliance costs, reputational damage and operational disruption. In some circumstances, the Company may also be exposed to penalties, fines, sanctions or enforcement action if it fails to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including export controls and trade restrictions. The Company may also face increased costs associated with monitoring and adapting to rapidly evolving regulatory requirements. Any such outcomes could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial performance, growth prospects and business operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify and comply with all applicable laws and regulations in a timely manner, or that compliance will not require significant expenditure of management time and financial resources.
