  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    Our common stock price may be volatile and may decline regardless of our operating performance, and holders of our common stock could lose a significant portion of their investment.

    The market price for our common stock may be volatile. Our stockholders may not be able to resell their shares of common stock at or above the price at which they purchased such shares, due to fluctuations in the market price of our common stock, which may be caused by several factors, many of which we cannot control, including the risk factors described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the following: -         changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our common stock, and our failure to meet these estimates or failure of securities;-         our failure to achieve our financial guidance estimates;-         significant variations in our quarterly results of operations;-         analysts maintaining coverage of our common stock;-         downgrades by any securities analysts who follow our common stock;-         future sales of our common stock by our officers, directors, and significant stockholders;-         market conditions or trends in our industry or the economy as a whole including market expectations of changing interest rates;-         the inability to conclude that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective;-         investors' perceptions of our prospects;-         announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, or capital commitments; and -         changes in key personnel. In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies, including us and companies in our industry. In the past, securities class action litigation has followed periods of market volatility. If we were involved in securities litigation, we could incur substantial costs, and our resources and the attention of management could be diverted from our business. In the future, we may also issue our securities in connection with investments or acquisitions. The number of shares of our common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding shares of our common stock and depress our stock price.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    There can be no assurance that we will continue to repurchase any of our common stock under our share repurchase program.

    Any determination to repurchase shares of our common stock in the future will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, business prospects, capital requirements, contractual restrictions (including in current or future agreements governing our indebtedness), restrictions imposed by applicable law, market conditions, tax considerations and other factors our Board deems relevant. There can be no assurance that we will continue to repurchase shares of our common stock and, therefore, the future realization of a gain on our stockholders' investment will depend entirely on the appreciation of the price of our common stock and/or dividends, which may never occur.

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.
