Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in the 2024 Form 10-K, including the disclosure under Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors,” which are risks we believe could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results. These are not the only risks we face. Other risks and uncertainties we are not currently aware of or that we currently consider immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and future results. Risks we have identified but currently consider immaterial could still materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and future results if our assumptions about those risks are incorrect or if circumstances change.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the 2024 Form 10-K except as follows:

We are subject to numerous risks associated with the evolving market for products with AI capabilities.

The markets and use cases for products with AI capabilities have been rapidly evolving, are difficult to predict, and may impact demand for our products, our sales cycles, and the preferences of our customers and potential customers. The significant investments we have made to develop products and software to address what we believe will be increasing demand for AI capabilities may be insufficient, and we face significant hurdles, including whether demand will materialize, whether third-party software providers will develop functionality that allows their software to utilize the AI capabilities of our products, and whether we will be successful in developing products that can compete with offerings by established competitors.

We have invested in an early-stage global foundation model and agentic AI company and we may continue to invest in other potentially disruptive technologies in the future, through various vehicles such as equity or debt investments, joint ventures, or strategic partnerships. Such investments may not produce the expected results, may require more financial resources than anticipated, or may otherwise be unsuccessful, and the value of the investments may decline or our business may be adversely impacted.

Additionally, our use of AI technology in general may subject us to reputational, financial, legal, or regulatory risks. As we continue to incorporate AI technology into our products and services, any failures to address concerns relating to the responsible use of the evolving AI technology in our products and services may cause harm to our reputation or result in financial liability, and as such, may increase our costs to address or mitigate such risks and issues. AI technology may create ethical issues, generate defective algorithms, and present other risks that create challenges with respect to its adoption. In addition, evolving rules, regulations, and industry standards governing AI may require us to expend significant resources to modify, maintain, or align our business practices or products to comply with U.S. and non-U.S. rules and regulations, the nature of which cannot be determined at this time. Several jurisdictions around the globe, including the EU and certain U.S. states, have already proposed or enacted laws governing AI. U.S. federal agencies are likely to release AI regulations in the near future in light of the Biden administration's October 30, 2023 Executive Order on AI.

The regulatory environment surrounding the impact of the implementation of AI on our products and services may adversely affect our ability to produce and export products, and as a result, may cause harm to our reputation and result in financial liability.

Delays or difficulties associated with the design, implementation, or post-implementation use of our new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We rely on information systems, particularly ERP technology, to manage our business, summarize our operating and financial results, and provide timely information to our management. We are currently engaged in a multi-year implementation of a new ERP system. This implementation is a complex project with broad scope, in which we have invested and will continue to invest significant financial and human capital. Despite our efforts, we may experience delays, unexpected costs, or other difficulties as the implementation process continues. Further, although we plan to run our existing technology in parallel with the new ERP system for a period of time and to conduct extensive testing to ensure that the new ERP system is operating as intended, post-implementation disruptions to or difficulties in use of the new ERP could require us to incur additional costs, or could impair, among other things, our ability to record sales, process transactions, collect receivables, and produce timely and accurate historical and forecasted financial information, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Additionally, if the new ERP system does not ultimately operate as intended, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting could be harmed.
