Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, except as supplemented below.
Our access to capital may be limited and our ability to successfully manage and raise capital in the future may fail, which could prevent us from growing and adversely impact our liquidity.
We may need additional capital in the future and to seek additional financing or covenant relief. Any such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could harm our business. We have outstanding $33.7 million; $47.3 million; and $244.1 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2026 Notes; 2027 Notes; and 2030 Notes.
Other general economic conditions and our future operating performance could ultimately limit our access to funding and adversely affect our liquidity. Although we plan to continue to actively manage and optimize our cash balances and liquidity, working capital and operating expenses, there can be no assurances that we will be able to do so successfully. If we encounter unforeseen circumstances that place further constraints on our capital resources, including our access to funding, management will be required to take various additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, reducing capital expenditures, controlling overhead expenses and raising additional sources of capital, such as monetizing certain existing assets. Furthermore, additional equity financing may dilute the interests of our Common Stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that could further restrict our business activities or our ability to execute our strategic objectives and could reduce our profitability. If we cannot access the full capacity of any existing credit facility or raise or borrow funds on acceptable terms or at all, it could adversely affect our liquidity, and we may not be able to grow our business or respond to competitive pressures.
In addition, because we grant stock options and other equity based awards under our incentive plans, a rising share price could lead to larger or more frequent grants and, upon exercise or vesting, result in the issuance of new shares that dilute existing stockholders’ ownership. Such dilution may reduce our earnings per share and could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock and our ability to raise future equity capital on favorable terms.
We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to settle conversions of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes in cash, to repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes upon a fundamental change or to repay the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes in cash at their maturity (if not earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased), and our current outstanding and future debt may contain limitations on our ability to pay cash upon conversions of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes or at their maturity or to repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes.
Holders of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of their respective notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change before the maturity date at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes, respectively, to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, upon conversion of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes, unless we elect to deliver solely shares of our Common Stock to settle such conversion (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional shares), we will be required to make cash payments in respect of the respective notes being converted. Moreover, we will be required to repay the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes, in cash at their respective maturity dates unless earlier converted, redeemed (noting that the 2027 Notes cannot be redeemed by us) or repurchased. However, we may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to make repurchases of the 2026 Notes, the 2027 Notes, and/or the 2030 Notes surrendered or pay cash with respect to the 2026 Notes, the 2027 Notes, and/or the 2030 Notes being converted or at their maturity.
In addition, our ability to repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes or to pay cash upon conversions of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes or at their maturity may be limited by law, regulatory authority or agreements governing our future indebtedness. Our failure to repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes at a time when the repurchase is required by the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes Indenture governing the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes respectively, or to pay cash upon conversions of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes or at their maturity as required by the Indenture would constitute a default under each respective indenture. A default under the 2026 Notes Indenture governing the 2026 Notes, the 2027 Notes Indenture governing the 2027 Notes, and the 2030 Indenture governing the 2030 Notes could also lead to a default under agreements governing our existing and future indebtedness. Moreover, the occurrence of a fundamental change under the 2026 Notes Indenture governing the 2026 Notes, the 2027 Notes Indenture governing the 2027 Notes, and the 2030 Notes Indenture governing the 2030 Notes could constitute an event of default under any such future agreement. If the payment of the related indebtedness were to be accelerated after any applicable notice or grace periods, we may not have sufficient funds to repay such indebtedness and repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes or pay cash with respect to the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes being converted or at maturity of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes.
The terms of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes could delay or prevent an attempt to take over our Company.
The terms of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes require us to repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes in the event of a fundamental change. A takeover of our Company would constitute a fundamental change. This could have the effect of delaying or preventing a takeover of our Company that may otherwise be beneficial to our stockholders.
The conditional conversion feature of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
In the event the conditional conversion feature of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and/or 2030 Notes is triggered, holders of these notes will be entitled to convert their respective notes at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and/or 2030 Notes, then we would be required to pay cash, deliver shares or deliver a combination of shares and cash, at our election. Unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our Common Stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional shares), we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation in cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2026 Indenture, 2027 Indenture, and 2030 Indenture) prior to the maturity date, holders may require us to repurchase all or a portion of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and/or 2030 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and/or 2030 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. Even if holders of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes do not elect to convert their respective notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes, as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.
