15. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

The continuing impacts of rising interest rates, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and geopolitical developments, such as the imposition of tariffs and shifts in international alliances, have resulted, and may continue to result, in a global slowdown of economic activity, which may decrease demand for a broad variety of goods and services, including those provided by the Company’s clients and as a result, the Company, while also disrupting supply channels, sales channels and advertising and marketing activities for an unknown period of time. Additionally, recent changes to U.S. policy implemented by the U.S. Congress, and the Executive Branch and the responses of other nations to such actions have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, international alliances and trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory environment, inflation and other areas. As a result of the current uncertainty regarding economic activity, the Company is unable to predict the size and duration of the impact of its revenue and its results of operations, if any, of actions taken to date and those that may occur in the future. The extent of the potential impact of these macroeconomic factors on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on a variety of factors, including the extent of geopolitical disruption and its impact on the Company’s clients, partners, industry and employees, all of which are uncertain at this time and cannot be accurately predicted. The Company continues to monitor the effects of these macroeconomic factors and intends to take steps deemed appropriate to limit the impact on its business.

 

There can be no assurance that precautionary measures, whether adopted by the Company or imposed by others, will be effective, and such measures could negatively affect its sales, marketing, and client service efforts, delay and lengthen its sales cycles, decrease its employees’, clients’, or partners’ productivity, or create operational or other challenges, any of which could harm its business and results of operations.
