Tenable’s Risk Factors
The new TipRanks Risk Factors tool shows 48 risk factors for Tenable. Since December 2020, the company has updated its risk profile to introduce four new risk factors under the Finance and Corporate category.
The company says it has debts to service. It tells investors that if it does not generate sufficient cash flow, it may be unable to meet its debt obligations. As a result, it may have to delay investments, raise additional capital, or restructure the debts. It cautions that it could end up with higher interest rates and restrictions to its operations.
Tenable further tells investors that it has entered into a credit agreement that limits its ability to pay dividends, repurchase shares, or borrow additional funds that it may need for capital expenditures or acquisitions. It also cautions that defaulting on that credit agreement could lead to actions against its collateral assets or cause a default in other credit agreements.
Finance and Corporate is Tenable’s top risk category, accounting for 44% of the total risks. That is above the sector average at 39%. Tenable’s shares have declined about 16% since the beginning of 2021.
