Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk set forth below and the risk factors as described in Part I, Item 1A, ”Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Other than the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K.
Changes in the United States trade environment, including the imposition of import tariffs, could adversely affect the amount or timing of our revenue, results of operations or cash flows.
The United States has recently imposed significant new tariffs on nearly all products and components imported into the United States, including an incremental 145% tariff applicable to goods from China, and could propose additional tariffs or increases to those already in place. A subset of certain key components, necessary for the production of our products are sourced from China, among other countries. It is unknown whether and to what extent these tariffs will remain in place or if other new laws or regulations will be adopted. Due to broad uncertainty regarding the timing, content and extent of any regulatory changes in the U.S. or abroad, we cannot predict the impact, if any, that these tariffs or other changes to trade policy could have on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, in the U.S., these measures could be altered at any time through presidential action, judicial orders, or a bipartisan congressional response, and the resulting uncertainty surrounding domestic and foreign trade and tariff policies may amplify the impact of these developments. In light of the aforementioned we are exploring alternative suppliers outside of China, however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in identifying suitable alternatives, or that such alternatives, if identified, will not result in increased costs or reduced operational efficiency.
It is unknown what effect any such new tariffs or retaliatory actions will have on the solar industry and our customers. We have most of our contract manufacturing the U.S. However, certain components necessary for our products are currently required to be imported from outside the U.S. The resulting environment of escalating trade tension, retaliatory trade tension, or other trade actions, restrictive measures, additional trade restrictions, or barriers, if implemented on a broader range of products or components from outside the United States, or with respect to products shipped from the United States, could harm our ability to obtain necessary product components or to sell our products at prices customers are willing to pay, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and cash flows.
Furthermore, if the price of solar power systems in the United States increases, as well as the cost of manufacturing our products in the United States, the use of solar power systems could become less economically feasible and could reduce our gross margins or reduce the demand of solar power systems manufactured and sold, which in turn may decrease demand for our products. Additionally, existing or future tariffs could negatively affect key partners, suppliers and manufacturers. Such outcomes could adversely affect the amount or timing of our revenue, results of operations or cash flows, and continuing uncertainty could cause sales volatility, price fluctuations or supply shortages or cause our customers to advance or delay their purchase of our products. It is difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include additional or increased tariffs and trade restrictions, and we may be unable to quickly and effectively react to such actions. As additional new tariffs, legislation and/or regulations are implemented, or if existing trade agreements are renegotiated or if affected countries take retaliatory trade actions, such changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
