Item 1A. Risk Factors
As a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, the Company is not required to provide risk factors in this report. For our current risk factors relating to our operations, other than as set forth below, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 4, 2025.
Our business and international expansion may be negatively affected by global political events and foreign policy responses, including tariffs.
There have recently been significant changes to international trade policies and tariffs affecting imports and exports. Any significant increases in tariffs on goods or materials or other changes in trade policy could negatively affect our business and our plans to expand to international markets as we continue to seek partnerships with businesses located outside the U.S., including China.
Recently, the U.S. has implemented a range of new tariffs and increases to existing tariffs. On April 2, 2025, the U.S. instituted a 54% tariff on all goods from China through an executive order. On April 9, 2025, implementation of the executive order issued on April 2, 2025, was paused for a period of 90 days with respect to all countries other than China. As of May 5, 2025, tariffs on most Chinese-made products entering the U.S. were 145% and may continue to increase, or decrease, over the near term. Some of our products are currently assembled by suppliers in China, although our flagship ADAM and Scorpion robot systems are assembled at our Las Vegas headquarters. Any continuation or increase of tariffs on products imported from China could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The progress and continuation of trade negotiations between the U.S. and China continues to be uncertain and a further escalation of the trade war remains a possibility. These tariffs have, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our results of operations and profit margins. We can provide no assurance regarding the magnitude, scope or duration of the imposed tariffs or the magnitude, scope or duration from any relief in increases to such tariffs, as well as the potential for additional tariffs or trade barriers by the U.S., China or other countries, nor that any strategies we may implement to mitigate the impact of such tariffs or other trade actions will be successful.
