  • Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 1
    Limited Operating History

    We commenced operations in 2012, and our operating history is of relatively short duration relative to our publicly traded industry peers. We have not generated significant revenues and have incurred losses from operations. We operate in an emerging and rapidly changing industry. The nature of our business and our ability to operate profitably depends significantly on the adoption of new API products, our business model, and the scalability of our business. Our business is early stage and involves substantial significant operating risks. We have a limited operating history and our commercial success depends on our ability to finance our operations and execute our business plan. They will require the procurement of additional equity. We consign the risk of our business on the ability to raise funds in the future. We may never be able to raise adequate funds on acceptable terms, if any, which could seriously affect our business. Achieving or sustaining profitability is highly challenging in the rapidly evolving market in which we operate, and as a consequence, we may never achieve or sustain profitability. We are merely speculative growing companies and our business may be subjected to rapid changes resulting in our inability to accurately predict. The success of the adoption of our technology is dependent upon convincing major industry players to use our technology in their supply chain. To that end, we require successful multiple long-term relationship commitments from them. The adoption of our technology into the supply chain for such major players may never occur. The liquidity and market price of our common stock could be adversely affected if large shareholders, including executive officers or directors, elect/fail to sell their holdings.

  • Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 2
    Weak internal controls

    Our internal control policies, while tailored to our current size and business, will likely be misaligned if our business scales significantly.

  • Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 3
    Significant risk factors relating to our operating results

    The business turnarounds are challenging in our industry. Identification of competing risks is difficult because many factors can affect performance of the business.

  • Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 4
    The lack of a strong track record of revenue performance

    Our inability to develop a meaningful track record of revenue performance may render our company unable to achieve or sustain profitability.

  • Debt & Financing - Risk 5
    Lack of capital risk

    Our business requires a substantial and ongoing allocation of capital. As a result, to the extent funds are limited our business may be impeded.

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.
