    New Product Development and Innovation Risk

    We intend to develop new vehicle access and security products, including advanced mechanical, electronic, and smart access systems, to expand into emerging mobility and connected vehicle markets. These efforts involve risks and may not be successful. The launch of new and enhanced products is a complex process, the success of which depends on a wide range of factors, including product quality, cost efficiency, the competitive landscape, customer demand and other factors. If we are unable to design, launch, or improve products on a timely and cost-effective basis in line with OEM program requirements, our ability to secure new business and our operating results could be adversely affected. Additionally, our success depends on developing innovative technologies and processes that meet evolving customer and industry standards. If we fail to do so, or if our customers do not adopt or integrate our new products and technologies into their vehicle platforms, our competitive position, business, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

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.
