Current report
Our robotics business is subject to significant risks relating to market development, customer demand, supply planning and servicing, and the market for our robotics products and services may not develop as anticipated.
Current report
The robotics industry is at an early stage of development, and the commercial adoption of robotics technologies for workplace, consumer and household applications is still evolving. There is limited historical market data available to assess long-term demand, customer acceptance, pricing trends, technological standards and competitive dynamics. As a result, our estimates regarding market growth, customer demand and adoption rates may prove inaccurate.
Current report
Our success depends on attracting and retaining customers and maintaining demand for our robotics products and the related software, AI systems and services that we provide or may provide in the future. We offer consumers the ability to pre-order certain robotics products in the United States. We have experienced, and may in the future experience, cancellations, which may result in lower unit sales and increased inventory. We also have limited experience marketing, selling and advertising robotics products, and there can be no assurance that we will successfully develop these capabilities or achieve the anticipated benefits from our marketing and commercialization efforts.
Current report
Our growth also depends on the development of practical, cost-effective and compelling robotics applications that provide measurable value to businesses and consumers. Many existing and potential robotics use cases remain unproven, are still being tested or may not achieve widespread commercialization. Businesses may be reluctant to deploy robotic systems because of implementation costs, integration challenges, operational disruptions, cybersecurity risks, workplace safety, liability, regulatory compliance, workforce displacement or labor-relations concerns. Consumers may be hesitant to adopt robotics products because of concerns regarding cost, reliability, privacy, security, safety, ease of use or social acceptance. Negative publicity relating to robotics, artificial intelligence, automation, product failures, accidents or perceived adverse societal impacts could further reduce acceptance and slow adoption.
Current report
Our limited operating history in robotics also makes it difficult to forecast demand and determine the appropriate level of product and component inventory. If we overestimate demand, we or our suppliers may hold excess inventory and incur additional costs. If we underestimate demand, we or our suppliers may have insufficient inventory, which could interrupt production or delay shipments and revenue.
Current report
In addition, we have minimal experience servicing and repairing robotics products, which may require specialized skills, parts and technical support. Although we plan to internalize certain aspects of robotics product service over time, we may initially rely on third-party service providers. We may be unable to enter into acceptable arrangements with such providers, and potential providers may initially have limited experience servicing our products or may lack sufficient resources, personnel or inventory to satisfy customer requirements in a timely manner. Customer usage may also result in higher-than-expected maintenance, repair and support costs.
Current report
If customers do not perceive our robotics products and related services as providing sufficient value, quality, reliability, functionality, safety or cost competitiveness, or if we cannot accurately forecast demand or provide satisfactory service and support, we may be unable to retain reservations, attract customers, generate anticipated revenue or achieve profitability. Any of these developments could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Current report
Regulatory restrictions on foreign-produced advanced robotic devices could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and growth prospects.
Current report
The risks described in our Form 10-K under the heading “Changes in U.S. and international trade policies, including export and import controls and laws, particularly with regard to China, may adversely impact our business and operating results” also apply to our robotics business. On July 28, 2026, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) updated its Covered List to include certain foreign-produced “advanced robotic devices,” including mobile robots such as humanoid and quadruped robots, following determinations by U.S. national security agencies that such products may pose national security, supply-chain and cybersecurity risks. Under the FCC’s action, new device models that fall within the scope of the determination may be unable to obtain the FCC equipment authorizations necessary for importation, marketing or sale in the United States unless an applicable exemption, waiver or conditional approval is obtained. Existing FCC-authorized models generally are not affected by the new restrictions..
Current report
We currently import robotics products from China that have received FCC approvals and authorizations. Although our existing products may continue to be imported, marketed and sold to the extent permitted under applicable law and regulatory guidance, there can be no assurance that future product models, product enhancements, software-enabled upgrades, successor products or additional robotics platforms sourced from China or other foreign jurisdictions will remain eligible for FCC authorization or otherwise be permitted for importation or sale in the United States.
Current report
The FCC’s action, related executive-branch determinations and future regulatory developments could adversely affect our business by:
Current report
•limiting or preventing our ability to introduce new robotics products into the U.S. market;
Current report
•increasing regulatory compliance, testing, certification and legal costs;
Current report
•requiring us to redesign products, alter technical architectures, implement additional cybersecurity controls or seek governmental approvals;
Current report
•disrupting relationships with existing suppliers and manufacturers;
Current report
•requiring us to identify, qualify and transition to alternative suppliers or manufacturing locations, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all;
Current report
•delaying product launches and customer deployments;
Current report
•reducing demand because of customer concerns regarding regulatory uncertainty; or
Current report
•subjecting us to additional governmental reviews, investigations or restrictions.
Current report
The FCC’s action reflects heightened governmental scrutiny of products manufactured in China and other foreign jurisdictions that incorporate advanced sensing, communications, artificial intelligence and remote-connectivity capabilities. Additional legislation, executive actions, regulations, trade restrictions, import controls, tariffs, sanctions or agency determinations could further restrict or prohibit the importation, authorization, sale, servicing or use of our products or components, including products that are currently authorized. Any such developments could materially disrupt our operations, supply chain and growth strategy.
Current report
If we are unable to obtain required regulatory approvals for future products, diversify our supply chain, transition manufacturing to alternative jurisdictions, obtain available exemptions or conditional approvals, or otherwise mitigate the effects of these regulatory developments, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
Current report
