Risks Related to our Business Our revenues are significantly concentrated in the hospitality and retail markets and the demand for our products and services in these markets could be disproportionately affected by instability or a downturn in either market. We may be required to defer recognition of revenues on our software products, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Our revenues and results of operations are difficult to predict and may fluctuate substantially from quarter to quarter, which could negatively affect the market price of our common stock. Our gross margins may vary significantly or decline. Our success will depend on our ability to develop new products and to adapt to rapid technological change. We may have difficulty implementing our products, which could damage our reputation and our ability to generate new business. Errors or defects in our software products could diminish demand for our products, injure our reputation and reduce our operating results. We are highly dependent on a limited number of clients, the loss of one or more of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Our failure to manage our growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our acquisition of existing businesses and our failure to successfully integrate these businesses could disrupt our business, dilute our common stock and harm our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Damage to our manufacturing site could limit our ability to operate our business. The loss of our key personnel could have a material adverse effect on us. Our inability to attract, hire or retain the necessary technical and managerial personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our success and ability to compete is dependent upon our ability to protect our proprietary technology. If we become subject to adverse claims alleging infringement of third-party proprietary rights, we may incur unanticipated costs and our competitive position may suffer. We operate in a highly competitive market and can give no assurance that we will be able to successfully compete against our current or future competitors. Our increased investment in the international market could expose us to risks in addition to those experienced in the United States. Global economic and market conditions could cause decreases in demand for our products and related services. An increase in customer bankruptcies, due to weak economic conditions, could harm our business. Risks Related to an Investment in Our Common Stock Investment in our common stock involves risk and we do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Our executive officers own a significant amount of our common stock and will be able to exercise significant influence on matters requiring shareholder approval. Our articles of Incorporation contain anti-takeover provisions which could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us.
