  • Debt & Financing - Risk 1
    We may be unable to raise the funds necessary to repurchase the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes for cash following a fundamental change, or to pay any cash amounts due upon conversion, and our future indebtedness may limit our ability to repurchase the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes or pay cash upon their conversion.*

    Noteholders may require us to repurchase their 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes, as applicable, following a fundamental change at a cash repurchase price generally equal to the principal amount of the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, upon conversion of the 2029 Notes or the 2032 Notes, we may be required or elect to satisfy all or a portion of our conversion obligation in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof, depending on the terms of the applicable notes and any settlement election we make. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to repurchase the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes, or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion thereof. In addition, applicable law, regulatory authorities and the agreements governing our future indebtedness may restrict our ability to repurchase the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion thereof. Our failure to repurchase the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes or to pay the cash amounts due upon conversion thereof when required will constitute a default under the base and supplemental indentures that govern the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes, which we refer to collectively as the "indenture." We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy all amounts due under the 2029 Notes, the 2032 Notes and any other indebtedness.

  • Debt & Financing - Risk 2
    A default under the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.*

    If an event of default under the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes occurs, the principal amount of the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes, as applicable, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any) may be declared immediately due and payable, subject to certain conditions set forth in the indenture governing such notes. Events of default under the indentures governing the 2029 Notes and the 2032 Notes include, among other things: - certain failures to make required payments of principal or interest;- certain failures to comply with conversion, notice or other covenant obligations;- specified defaults or accelerations with respect to other indebtedness; and - certain bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events. Accordingly, the occurrence of a default under the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes, unless cured or waived, may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

  • Debt & Financing - Risk 3
    Provisions of the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.*

    Certain provisions of the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes could make it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire us. Upon the occurrence of certain transactions constituting a fundamental change, under the applicable indenture governing the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes, holders of the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes, as the case may be, will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase all of their notes or any portion of the principal amount of such notes in integral multiples of $1,000. We may also be required to increase the conversion rate for conversions of the 2029 Notes and/or 2032 Notes, as applicable, in connection with certain make-whole fundamental changes.

  • Debt & Financing - Risk 4
    Conversion of the 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders, including holders who had previously converted their 2029 Notes or 2032 Notes.*

    To the extent we issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the 2029 Notes or the 2032 Notes, the conversion of some or all of such notes may dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. Any sales in the public market of shares of the common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of shares of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the notes could be used to satisfy short positions, which could depress the price of shares of our common stock.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
