Forward-Looking Statements and Risks
Certain statements regarding future events or financial performance are considered forward-looking under U.S. law. These statements involve risks that could cause actual results to differ significantly from expectations.
The risks include maintaining partnerships with strategic partners like Volvo Cars and Geely and securing long-term supply contracts. Other concerns involve raising additional funding and executing cost-cutting measures effectively.
The ongoing conflicts in Ukraine-Russia and Israel-Gaza also pose potential risks to business operations. Additionally, changes in regulatory requirements or market conditions could impact future performance.
The company acknowledges these uncertainties but remains focused on its strategic goals. They emphasize not placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements as they are subject to change based on new information or developments.
