Risk Change Over Time
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1The market price of our Common Stock and Warrants may be highly volatile, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
The market price of our Common Stock may be highly volatile and thinly traded, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The market for our Common Stock is characterized by low trading volumes and significant price swings, and our shares are considered thinly traded on the OTC market. Even with limited daily volume, our stock price has experienced substantial percentage changes over short periods, which means that relatively small trades can result in disproportionate price movements and heightened volatility compared to the broader market. This volatility and limited liquidity may prevent you from being able to sell your shares at or above the price you paid, or at the time you wish to sell. - whether we achieve our anticipated corporate objectives;- actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;- changes in financial or operational estimates or projections;- changes in the economic performance or market valuations of companies similar to ours; and - general economic or political conditions in the United States or elsewhere. Cuentas' current status as being out of compliance with SEC filings is expected to be resolved shortly, bringing Cuentas back into compliance regarding its SEC filings. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Broad market and industry factors may negatively affect the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. Convertible debt and dilution. The Company's 2025 convertible notes could result in the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock upon conversion, which may be dilutive to existing stockholders. Liens on Fintech assets; potential asset transfer. The secured notes issued to Michael De Prado are collateralized by the Company's Fintech (non-MVNO) assets. If the Company defaults or if the holder elects the non-cash option at maturity of the second note, the Company could be required to transfer all such Fintech assets. Governance rights granted to an investor. While in effect, the director designation right and protective approval rights granted to World Mobile Group Ltd. may constrain certain corporate actions or require additional approvals.
- Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 2We have a limited operating history in our new business plan and therefore we cannot ensure, either in the near- or long-term, that we will be able to generate cash flow or profit.
We have a limited operating history in our new business plan upon which you may evaluate our business and an investment in our Common Stock may entail significantly more risk than the shares of common stock of a company with a substantial operating history. Our ability to successfully develop our products, and to realize consistent, meaningful revenues and profit has not been established and cannot be assured. For us to achieve success, our products must receive broader market acceptance by consumers. Without this market acceptance, we will not be able to generate sufficient revenue to continue our business operation. If our products are not widely accepted by the market, our business may fail. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues, manage development costs and expenses, and compete successfully with our direct and indirect competitors. Our business operations are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties associated with early stage enterprises. You should consider an investment in our company in light of these risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties. Such risks include: the absence of a lengthy operating history; insufficient capital to fully realize our operating plan; our ability to anticipate and adapt to a developing market; a competitive environment characterized by well-capitalized competitors; our ability to identify, attract and retain qualified personnel; our reliance on key management personnel. Because we are subject to these risks, evaluating our business may be difficult. We may be unable to successfully overcome these risks, which could harm our business and prospects. Our business strategy may be unsuccessful and we may be unable to address the risks we face in a cost-effective manner, if at all. If we are unable to successfully address these risks, there may be an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 25
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1Failure to remain current in our SEC filings could result in restrictions or interruptions in the trading of our Common Stock.
If we are not current in our SEC reports, the exchange or quotation system on which our Common Stock is listed or quoted could take action against us, including warnings, changes in our market tier, or removal of our securities from trading. In addition, the SEC has authority to suspend trading in a company's securities, and broker-dealers may be unwilling or unable to publish quotations in our stock if our public information is not current. Any suspension, delisting or limitation on trading of our Common Stock would severely reduce or eliminate the public market for our shares, make it more difficult for stockholders to sell their shares, and make it more difficult and costly for us to raise additional capital.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2If we do not remain current in our SEC reporting obligations, our ability to raise capital and the liquidity of our common stock could be materially harmed.
Our business plan assumes that we will continue to access the capital markets from time to time, which in turn depends on us being current in our filings with the SEC. If we experience delays in filing our periodic reports, receive a going concern qualification, or otherwise fail to remain current, investors and lenders may be unwilling to provide additional financing, broker-dealers may be less willing to make a market in our securities, and existing and potential investors may view our securities as higher risk. Any such result could limit our ability to raise needed capital, increase our cost of capital, and reduce the trading volume and market price of our Common Stock.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3Our shares are subject to the penny stock rules, which make it more difficult to trade our shares.
The SEC has rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. As long as the price of our Common Stock is less than $5.00, our Common Stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our Common Stock, and therefore shareholders may have difficulty selling their shares.
