Share Price & Shareholder Rights4 | 8.9%
  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    Our corporate governance documents and Delaware law may delay or discourage takeovers and business combinations that our stockholders might consider in their best interests.

    Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws may make it difficult and expensive for a third-party to pursue a tender offer, change-in-control, or takeover attempt that is opposed by our management and Board of Directors. These provisions include, among others: - limitations on the right of stockholders to remove directors;- the right of our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval;- the inability of our stockholders to act by written consent; and - rules and procedures regarding how stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors at stockholders' meetings. Public stockholders who might desire to participate in this type of transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. These anti-takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of public stockholders to benefit from a change-in-control or a change in our management or Board of Directors and, as a result, may adversely affect the marketability and market price of our common stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    Our maintenance of two stock exchange listings may adversely affect liquidity in the market for our common stock and could result in pricing differentials of our common stock between the two stock exchanges.

    The dual listing of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Iceland hf. ("Nasdaq Iceland") may split trading between the two markets and adversely affect the liquidity of our common stock in one or both markets and the development of an active trading market for our common stock on Nasdaq Iceland. In addition, such dual listing may result in price differentials between the stock exchanges. Differences in the trading schedules, trading volume and investor bases, as well as volatility in the exchange rate between USD and ISK, the two trading currencies, among other factors, may result in different trading prices for our common stock on the two stock exchanges or otherwise adversely affect liquidity and trading prices of our common stock. It is possible that our stock price might be more volatile than it would be if it were listed on a single stock exchange.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    Conversion of the Notes or exercise of the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders.

    At our election, we may settle the Notes tendered for conversion entirely or partly in shares of our common stock. Furthermore, the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions are expected to be settled on a net-share basis. As a result, the conversion of some or all of the Notes or the exercise of some or all of such warrants may dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion of the Notes or such exercise of the warrants could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock and, in turn, the price of the Notes. In addition, the existence of the Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the Notes could depress the price of our common stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions may negatively affect the value of our common stock.

    In connection with the pricings of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 and our Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (collectively, the "Notes"), we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the "Hedge Transactions") with the option counterparties. We also entered into warrant transactions with the option counterparties in each offering of the Notes. The Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be. However, the warrant transactions could separately have a dilutive effect on our common stock to the extent that the market price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants. The option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do in connection with any conversion of the Notes or redemption or repurchase of the Notes). This activity could cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price 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.
