Future operating results depend upon the Company’s ability to obtain components in sufficient quantities on 
commercially reasonable terms.
Because the Company currently obtains certain components from single or limited sources, the Company is subject to significant 
supply and pricing risks. Many components, including those that are available from multiple sources, are at times subject to 
industry-wide shortages and significant commodity pricing fluctuations that can materially adversely affect the Company’s 
business, results of operations and financial condition. For example, the global semiconductor industry is experiencing high 
demand and shortages of supply, which has adversely affected, and could materially adversely affect, the Company’s ability to 
obtain sufficient quantities of components and products on commercially reasonable terms or at all. While the Company has 
entered into agreements for the supply of many components, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to extend or 
renew these agreements on similar terms, or at all. Component suppliers may suffer from poor financial conditions, which can 
lead to business failure for the supplier or consolidation within a particular industry, further limiting the Company’s ability to obtain 
sufficient quantities of components on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The effects of global or regional economic 
conditions on the Company’s suppliers, described in “
The Company’s operations and performance depend significantly on 
global and regional economic conditions and adverse economic conditions can materially adversely affect the Company’s 
business, results of operations and financial condition,
” above, can also affect the Company’s ability to obtain components

Therefore, the Company remains subject to significant risks of supply shortages and price increases that can materially 
adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company’s new products often utilize custom components available from only one source. When a component or product 
uses new technologies, initial capacity constraints may exist until the suppliers’ yields have matured or their manufacturing 
capacities have increased. The continued availability of these components at acceptable prices, or at all, can be affected for any 
number of reasons, including if suppliers decide to concentrate on the production of common components instead of components 
customized to meet the Company’s requirements. When the Company’s supply of components for a new or existing product has 
been delayed or constrained, or when an outsourcing partner has delayed shipments of completed products to the Company, the 
Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition have been adversely affected and future delays or constraints 
could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company’s business 
and financial performance could also be materially adversely affected depending on the time required to obtain sufficient 
quantities from the source, or to identify and obtain sufficient quantities from an alternative source.
