If we do not continue to invest in research and development, and/or otherwise improve our technology platforms, we could lose our competitive position.

Involvement in litigation could harm our business.
Our inability to recover from natural disasters could harm our business.
Increases in the costs and requirements of technical compliance could harm our business.
