Item 1. Business.

The Company

TransAct Technologies Incorporated (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “TransAct,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated in June

1996 and began operating as a stand-alone business in August 1996 as a spin-off of the printer business that was formerly conducted by certain subsidiaries of Tridex Corporation. We completed an initial public offering on August 22, 1996.

TransAct is a global leader in developing and selling software-driven technology and printing solutions for high-growth markets including food service

technology (“FST”), point of sale (“POS”) automation and casino and gaming. Our world-class products are designed from the ground up based on market and customer requirements and are sold under the BOHA!®, AccuDate®, Epic, EPICENTRAL®, and Ithaca®

brand names. During 2019, we launched a new line of products for the FST market, the BOHA! hardware solutions and companion branded suite of cloud-based applications. The BOHA! software and hardware products help restaurants, convenience stores and

food service operators of all sizes automate food production in the back-of-house operations. Known and respected worldwide for innovative designs and real-world service reliability, our thermal printers and terminals generate top-quality labels,

coupons and transaction records such as receipts, tickets and other documents. We sell our technology to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), value-added resellers, and select distributors, as well as directly to end users. Our product

distribution spans across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean Islands and the South Pacific. We also offer world-class service, support, labels, spare parts and accessories to our growing

worldwide base of products currently in use by our customers. Our TransAct Services Group (“TSG”) provides spare parts and service to our installed base of customers. We operate in one reportable segment: the design, development, and marketing of

software-driven technology and printing solutions for high growth markets, and related services, labels and spare parts. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, who is the Company’s chief executive officer, in consultation with the Company’s

chief financial officer, utilizes a consolidated approach to assess the performance of and allocate resources to the business. Accordingly, management has concluded that the Company consists of a single operating segment and single reportable segment

for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Our primary operating, hardware research and development, and U.S. service center is located in Ithaca, New York. In addition, we have a casino and gaming sales headquarters and software research and

development center in Las Vegas, Nevada; a European sales and service center at our subsidiary in the United Kingdom (“UK”); and a sales office located in Macau, China. Our executive offices are located at One Hamden Center, 2319 Whitney Avenue,

Suite 3B, Hamden, Connecticut 06518, and our telephone number is (203) 859-6800.

Recent Developments

Source Code Acquisition

On August 6, 2025, the Company announced that it acquired a perpetual license to a copy of the source code for the BOHA! software that it licenses from

Avery Dennison Corporation (“Avery Dennison”). Under the terms of the agreement, TransAct obtained a perpetual and royalty free license to use, host, market, sublicense, distribute, copy, and modify the code as the Company sees fit for its

business purposes. In addition to the perpetual and royalty free license, TransAct will also host the code within its own environment, which is expected to go live in mid-2026. The Company has successfully taken delivery of the source code and

the related hosting environment and has begun internal review and development activities related to the underlying code. Total consideration for the acquisition was $2.55 million, plus professional services fees of approximately $1.0 million for

transition services to be provided by Avery Dennison, of which $1.5 million has been paid to date based on contractual milestone completion and transition services received.

Products, Services, Markets and Distribution Methods

Printers, terminals and other hardware:

TransAct designs, develops, and markets an array of transaction-based and specialty printers and terminals utilizing thermal printing technology for applications, primarily in the FST, POS automation, and casino and gaming markets. Our printers and

terminals are configurable and offer customers the ability to choose from a variety of features and functions. Options typically include interface configuration, mounting configuration, paper cutting devices and paper handling capacities. Our FST

terminals also offer software configurable menu options and our FST market includes sales of optional hardware products including tablets, temperature sensors and gateways (i.e. access points needed to enable wireless communications).

FST: Our primary offering in

the FST market is our line of BOHA! products. The BOHA! product suite combines our latest generation terminal or workstation, which includes one or two printers, with our BOHA! labeling, timers, and media software. In addition, customers may

separately purchase cloud‐based software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) applications that are accessed through companion applications on both Android and iOS mobile devices as part of a solution to automate back-of-house operations in restaurants, convenience

stores and other food service operations. These additional offerings include applications for temperature monitoring, temperature taking and creating checklists and task lists. These applications are sold separately, and customers purchase the

applications they need for their back-of-house operations. Customers may also purchase associated hardware, such as tablets, temperature sensors and gateways. The BOHA! Terminal, the Terminal 2 (launched in 2023), and the newly launched Terminal 2

LTE (together, the “BOHA! Terminals”), combinean operating system and hardware components in a single touchscreen device with one or two thermal print mechanisms

that print easy-to-read food rotation labels, grab-and-go labels, and nutritional labels for prepared foods, and “enjoy by” date labels. The BOHA! WorkStation uses an iPad or Android tablet instead of an integrated touchscreen. The BOHA! Terminals

and WorkStation are equipped with the TransAct Enterprise Management System to ensure that only approved functions are available on the touchscreen device and to allow over-the-air updates to the operating system. The BOHA! line of products helps

food service establishments and restaurants (including fine dining, casual dining, fast casual and quick-service restaurants (“QSRs”), convenience stores, hospitality establishments and contract food service providers) effectively manage food safety

and grab-and-go initiatives, as well as automate and manage back-of-house operations. Recurring revenue from BOHA! is generated by software sales, including software subscriptions that are typically charged to customers annually on a per-application

basis, as well as sales of labels, extended warranty and service contracts, and technical support services. In the FST market, we use an internal sales force to solicit sales directly from end users. In May 2023, we launched our BOHA! Terminal 2,

and in 2025, we launched the BOHA! Terminal 2 LTE. The Terminal 2 and the Terminal 2 LTE are designed to be high-end products intended for enterprise customers with increased speed, print resolution and wide-label capability. The Terminal 2 LTE is

intended to solve connectivity challenges for franchisees operating in supermarkets or off-network environments by removing the need for MiFi devices and enabling seamless cloud access and remote updates.

POS automation:In the POS automation market, we sell the Ithaca 9000 printer, which utilizes thermal printing technology. The Ithaca 9000 is used primarily by

McDonald’s, and to a lesser extent, other QSRs and is located either at the checkout counter or within self-service kiosks to print receipts for consumers or print on linerless labels. In the POS automation market, we primarily sell our products

through a network of domestic and international distributors and resellers. We use an internal sales force to manage sales through our distributors and resellers, as well as to solicit sales directly from end users.

Casino and gaming: We sell

several models of printers used in slot machines, video lottery terminals (“VLTs”), sports betting kiosks and other gaming machines that print tickets or receipts instead of issuing coins (“ticket-in, ticket-out” or “TITO”) at casinos, racetracks,

charitable gaming establishments and other gaming venues worldwide. These printers utilize thermal printing technology to print tickets and receipts in monochrome and offer various other features such as jam resistant bezels and a dual port

interface that enables casinos to print coupons and promotions. In addition, we sell printers using thermal roll-fed printing technology for use in international non-casino establishments, including game types such as Amusements with Prizes, Skills

with Prizes, Fixed Odds Betting Terminals, sports betting establishments and other off-premise gaming type machines around the world. We sell our casino and gaming products primarily (1) to slot machine manufacturers, who incorporate our printers

into slot machines and, in turn, sell completed slot machines directly to casinos and other gaming establishments and (2) through distributors. We also maintain a dedicated internal sales force to solicit sales from slot machine manufacturers and

casinos, and to manage sales through our distributors. In the fourth quarter of 2023, we launched the Epic TR80, our newest casino and gaming printer, which entered the market fully during the first quarter of 2025. We expect the Epic TR80 to become

a more meaningful contributor to revenues as customer deployments expand in 2026.

We also offer a software solution, the EPICENTRAL Print System (“EPICENTRAL”), including annual software maintenance, that enables casino operators to

create promotional coupons and marketing messages and to print them in real time at the slot machine. With EPICENTRAL, casinos can create and manage multiple promotions and incentives to increase customer time spent on the casino floor and encourage

additional visits. We sell EPICENTRAL directly to casinos or through partners that incorporate EPICENTRAL into their casino management system software offerings, largely sold on a SaaS basis.

TSG: Through TSG, we proactively market the sale of replacement parts, maintenance and repair services, and shipping and handling charges. Our maintenance services include the

sale of extended warranties, multi-year maintenance contracts, a 24-hour guaranteed replacement product service called TransAct Xpress and other repair services for our non-FST products. Within the United States, we provide repair services through

our service center in Ithaca, New York. Internationally, we provide repair services through our European service center located in Doncaster, UK, and through partners strategically located around the world.

We also provide customers with telephone sales and technical support, and a personal account representative to handle orders, shipping and general

information. Technical and sales support personnel receive training on all our products and services. In addition to personalized telephone and technical support, we also market and sell consumable products 24 hours a day, seven days a week, via

our webstore, www.transactsupplies.com.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

We design our products to optimize product performance, quality, reliability and durability. These designs combine cost efficient materials, sourcing and

assembly methods with high standards of workmanship. Almost all our printers and terminals are currently produced by a third-party manufacturer located in Thailand. A small portion of our products are assembled in our Ithaca, New York facility

largely on a configure-to-order basis using components and subassemblies that have been sourced from vendors and contract manufacturers around the world.

Critical component parts and subassemblies include thermal print heads, printing/cutting mechanisms, power supplies, motors, injection molded plastic

parts, LCD screens, tablets, circuit boards and electronic components, which are obtained from domestic and foreign suppliers at competitive prices, subject to availability. As a result of the majority of our production being performed by our

contract manufacturers, the majority of our purchases consist of fully assembled printers and terminals produced by our contract manufacturers and, to a much lesser extent, component parts. We typically strive to maintain more than one source for

our component parts, subassemblies and fully assembled printers and terminals to reduce the risk of parts shortages or unavailability. However, we have experienced and could continue to experience some disruption due to certain suppliers being

unable to source specific components and we could experience temporary disruption in the availability of components. In addition, we could experience temporary disruption if certain suppliers ceased doing business with us, as described below.

We currently buy a majority of our thermal print mechanisms, an important component of our thermal printers, and fully assembled printers for substantially

all of our printer and FST terminal models, from a foreign contract manufacturer in Thailand. We believe that other contract manufacturers could provide similar thermal print mechanisms or fully assembled printers and terminals, on comparable

terms. We do not have supply agreements with foreign contract manufacturers, and we believe that our supply of thermal print mechanisms and fully assembled printers and terminals will be adequate in 2026 and the foreseeable future.

We also purchase substantially all of our BOHA! labels from a single domestic supplier. Though we do not have a supply agreement with this supplier, our

relationship remains strong.While we believe our relationship with this supplier is strong, labels are not unique to this source, and we have identified several

alternative suppliers capable of meeting our specifications and volume requirements if necessary.

Patents and Proprietary Information

TransAct relies on a combination of trade secrets, patents, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, copyright laws and contractual rights to

establish and protect its proprietary rights in its products. As of December 31, 2025, we held 25 active United States patentsand 40 active foreign patents and have

three pending United States patent applications and 12 pending foreign patent applications pertaining to our products. The remaining duration of these patents ranges from one to 24 years. During the year ended December 31, 2025, two United States

patents were issued, and six foreign patents were issued. During the year ended December 31, 2025, no United States patents expired, and six foreign patents expired. The expiration of any individual patent would not have a significant negative impact

on our business. We regard certain manufacturing processes and designs to be proprietary and attempt to protect them through employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements and similar means. It may be possible for unauthorized third parties to

copy certain portions of our products or to reverse engineer or otherwise obtain and use, to our detriment, information that we regard as proprietary. Moreover, the laws of some foreign countries do not afford the same protection to our proprietary

rights as do the laws of the United States. There can be no assurance that legal protections we rely upon to protect our proprietary position will be adequate or that our competitors will not independently develop technologies that are substantially

equivalent or superior to our technologies.

Trademarks, Service Marks Trade Names and Copyrights

We own or have rights to trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights that we use in connection with the operation of our business, including

our corporate names, logos and website names. Other trademarks, service marks and trade names appearing in this Form 10-K are the property of their respective owners. The trademarks we own include TransAct®, BOHA!®, AccuDate®, EPICENTRAL®, Epic

TR80®, and Ithaca®. Solely for convenience, some of the trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights referred to in this Form 10-K are listed without the

©, ® and TM symbols, but we will assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, our rights to our trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights.

Seasonality

Restaurants typically reduce purchases of equipment in the fourth quarter due to the increased volume of transactions during the holiday period, which may

negatively impact sales of our FST products or POS printers.

Working Capital

Inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable levels, payment terms, and where applicable, return policies are in accordance with the general

practices of the industry and standard business procedures. See also Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Form 10-K.

Certain Significant Customers

Light & Wonder Gaming, Inc. (“Light & Wonder”) is our most significant customer. We primarily sell casino and gaming printers to Light &

Wonder. Sales to Light & Wonder represented 9% and 11% of our total net sales for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Competition

The market for transaction-based and specialty printers, FST terminals and related software applications is extremely competitive, and we expect such

competition to continue in the future. However, we experience less competition for EPICENTRAL software due to the highly customized nature of the product. We compete with a number of companies, many of which have greater financial, technical and

marketing resources than TransAct. We believe our ability to compete successfully depends on a number of factors both within and outside our control, including software features, functionality and ease of use, durability, reliability, quality,

design capability, product customization, price, customer support, success in developing new products, manufacturing expertise and capacity, supply of component parts and materials, strategic relationships with suppliers, the timing of new product

introductions by us and our competitors, general market, economic and political conditions and, in some cases, the uniqueness of our products.

In the FST market, we primarily compete with Crunchtime Information Systems, Inc. (including its Zenput and Squadle brands), Digi International Inc.

(including its Jolt Software, Inc. brand), Avery Dennison, Ecolab Inc., ITD Food Safety, Daymark Safety Systems (part of CMC Group, Inc.), Integrated Control Corp. and Toast, Inc. We compete in this market based largely on our ability to provide

highly specialized purpose-built hardware products, different software applications that can be chosen by a customer and ongoing technical support. We rely upon third-party developed software and hosting services combined with our own proprietary

hardware and software to offer a unique BOHA! branded solution to support back-of-house operations in the food service industry. Our competitors or others may develop or may establish relationships with developers with the capability to develop,

software and services that are similar to or competitive with ours, which may be disadvantageous to our competitive position. In 2025, we acquired a perpetual license to the BOHA! source code from a third-party developer, and we believe this will

reduce our long-term dependence on that developer for access to and control of the code. However, we currently continue to rely on third parties, including the prior developer, to host the web-based applications and to provide certain support,

maintenance and other services while we work to transition the code to our platform and systems.. Therefore, presently, we remain highly dependent upon this third-party developer for continued service to our customers and the ongoing operation of

portions of our FST software products.

In the POS automation market, we primarily compete with BIXOLON America, Inc and Epson America, Inc.. and, to a much lesser extent, with Star Micronics

America, Inc. and Citizen Systems America Corporation. We believe certain competitors of ours have greater financial resources and lower costs attributable to higher volume production and lower gross profit margin expectations which enable them to

offer lower prices than us.

In the casino and gaming market (consisting principally of slot machine printing, VLT and sports betting transaction and promotional coupon printing), we

compete with several companies including JCM Global, Nanoptix, Inc., Custom Engineering SPA, Eurocoin Components and others. Our products sold for casino and gaming applications compete based upon our ability to provide highly specialized products,

custom developed and proprietary firmware for customers’ many different gaming platforms, and ongoing technical support. In addition, many of our casino and gaming products, which are incorporated into our customers’ gaming platforms, must be

certified and approved for use in each of the jurisdictions in which we or the customer operate(s). As a result, we believe this creates a significant barrier to entry for any new competitors due to the cost and extensive time required to receive

such certifications and approvals.

4

Index

The market in which TSG competes is highly fragmented, and we compete with numerous competitors of various sizes, including POS and internet resellers and

paper converters depending on the geographic area.

Our strategy for competing in our markets is to continually develop and/or license new products (hardware and software), such as launching the BOHA!

Terminal in 2019, the BOHA! Terminal 2 and Epic TR80 in 2023, the BOHA! Terminal 2 LTE in 2025 and product line extensions that are technologically advanced and provide differentiated features and functions, to increase our market penetration, to

take advantage of strategic relationships, and to lower the cost of our products by sourcing certain products overseas. Although we believe that our products, operations and relationships provide a competitive foundation, there can be no assurance

that we will compete successfully in the future. In addition, our printer products utilize certain thermal printing technologies and licensed software. If new technologies are introduced, or existing technologies evolve, we may be required to

incorporate these technologies into our products. Alternatively, if such technologies were to become available to our competitors, our printer products could become obsolete, which could have a significant negative impact on our business.

Governmental Regulation

The casino and gaming industries are generally subject to extensive and evolving regulations that in many jurisdictions include licensing or regulatory

screening of suppliers, manufacturers and distributors and their applicable affiliates, their major shareholders, officers, directors and key employees. In addition, certain of our casino and gaming products and technologies must be certified or

approved in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Regulators review many facets of an applicant or holder of a license, including its financial stability, integrity and business experience. Any failure to receive a license or the loss of a

license that we currently hold could have a material adverse effect on us or on our results of operations, cash flow or financial condition.

While we believe that we are in compliance with all material casino and gaming laws and regulatory requirements applicable to us, we cannot assure that our

activities or the activities of our customers will not become the subject of any regulatory or law enforcement proceeding or that any such proceeding would not have a material adverse impact on us or our results of operations, cash flows or financial

condition.

Environmental Compliance

Our compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and discharge of hazardous materials has not had a

material impact on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position, and we do not anticipate any material impact from such compliance in the future.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Investors should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and other factors described below, as well as other disclosures in Part II, Item 7.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, because they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, and growth prospects. The risks described below are the

currently known risks facing our Company that management deems to be material to the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently believe to be immaterial, may also impair our business operations. If

such risks or uncertainties materialize, our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

We assume no obligation (and specifically disclaim any such obligation) to update these Risk Factors or any other forward-looking statements contained in

this Form 10-K to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or other factors affecting such forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Risks Related to our Financial Condition and Future Operating Results

We have a history of net losses, we anticipate making further investments in product development and we may not be

able to achieve, maintain or increase profitability in future periods.

In 2025 and 2024, we incurred net losses of $1.2 and $9.9 million, respectively. While we generated $4.7 million of net income in

2023, we incurred net losses in each fiscal year from 2020 to 2022. We may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future. In addition, we may make further investments in product development and may increase expenses in future

periods which may affect our ability to maintain or increase profitability. We have expended, and expect to continue to expend, financial and other resources on developing our FST business, including acquiring a licensed copy of the BOHA! source

code, expanding our offerings, developing or acquiring new products and services and increasing our sales and marketing efforts. These efforts may be more costly than we expect and may not result in increased revenue or growth in our FST business.

Any failure to increase our revenue sufficiently to keep pace with our investments and other expenses could prevent us from maintaining or increasing profitability or positive cash flow on a consistent basis. This risk may be exacerbated by current

economic conditions, which have resulted, and may continue to result in increased costs on our products assembled in Thailand, inflationary pressures, and decreased demand for our products in the casino and gaming market. If we are unable to

successfully address these risks and challenges as we encounter them, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our operating results and financial condition may fluctuate.

Our operating results and financial condition may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and year to year and are likely to continue to vary

due to a number of factors, many of which are not within our control. If our operating results do not meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, who may derive their expectations by extrapolating data from recent historical operating

results, the market price of our common stock will likely decline. Fluctuations in our operating results and financial condition may occur due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, those identified below and throughout this “Risk

Factors” section:

• the geographic distribution of our sales and our supply chain;

• market acceptance of our products, both domestically and internationally;

• development of new competitive products by others;

• our responses to price competition;

• our level of research and development activities;

• changes in the amount we spend to promote our products and services;

• availability of third-party components at reasonable prices or at all;

• changes in customer demand due to supply chain constraints;

• changes in accounting rules and regulations.

Due to all of the foregoing factors, and the other risks discussed in this Form 10-K, quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results may not be an

indicator of future performance.

Risks Related to Product Development

We may not realize the expected benefits of our acquisition of a perpetual license to the BOHA! source code within

the anticipated time frame or at all.

On August 5, 2025, the Company entered into a Source Code Purchase and Perpetual License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) and a related Transition

Statement of Work (together with the License Agreement, the “Source Code Transition Agreement”) with Avery Dennison.

Pursuant to the Source Code Transition Agreement, the Company has acquired a non-exclusive, perpetual and royalty free license to a copy of the source code

and associated documentation for the BOHATM Control Center, BOHATM Ops (including labeling, media, checklist and timer modules), and the BOHATM Temp and BOHATM Sense applications (the “Code”), subject to payment by the Company of the full purchase price

of $2.55 million. This license allows the Company to use, modify, market, host, distribute, sublicense, copy and create derivative works of the Code for the Company’s business purposes. The Source Code Transition Agreement involves numerous risks, as

described further below.

The transition of the Code as contemplated by the Source Code Transition Agreement may require us to incur non-recurring and other charges, increase

certain expenditures, and divert certain engineering resources and management attention to support the transition of the Code into the Company’s systems.

In addition, Avery Dennison may be unable to provide the transition services required by the Source Code Transition Agreement, including its obligations

under each milestone for the transition services, or there may be defects in the Code. In any case, if the Company is unable to use the Code, we may need to seek comparable software from third parties or develop it internally, which could require

significant time and expense. There could also be an interruption in the Company’s services during any period, including during or after the transition period, in which the Company has to develop a comparable capability, whether on its own or using

third-party products. There is no assurance that comparable software is readily available from other sources, or that if available, it would be of comparable quality and cost. Moreover, Avery Dennison retains ownership of the Code under the Source

Code Transition Agreement.

Further, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in making any of the anticipated enhancements to the Code, that such enhancements

will not result in defects in the Code, or that such enhancements will be well received by customers.

We currently rely on a third-party cloud service provider for hosting services with respect to the BOHA! software, which is currently managed by Avery

Dennison. During the completion of the transition services under the Source Code Transition Agreement, we anticipate entering into a new agreement with the existing third-party cloud service provider to ensure continued hosting and support. If the

software provider or cloud services provider were to terminate operations or otherwise be unavailable to provide hosting services, including during the transition from one hosting provider to another, the availability or usage of our software

products could be disrupted and our customers could be adversely affected. Pursuant to the Source Code Transition Agreement, the Code, documentation and data are to be migrated into such third-party cloud hosting services that we would directly

manage. During such transition from one hosting environment to another, the availability or usage of the BOHA! software could be disrupted and our customers could be adversely affected. The third-party developer also currently provides certain

product support and maintenance services to the Company’s customers. The Company will be responsible for providing these services going forward, and there can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient capacity to provide such services in

a timely manner satisfactory to its customers. Any such occurrence could materially and adversely impact our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we are unable to effectively manage these risks and uncertainties, our acquisition of the Code may not deliver the expected benefits within the

anticipated time frame, or at all, and may also introduce other material risks that could adversely affect future results of the Company.

Our revenue and profitability depend on our ability to continue to develop or license, on a timely basis, new

products and technologies which are free from hardware or software anomalies and cannot be fraudulently manipulated, and customer acceptance of such products.

Our success depends upon our, and our development partners’, ability to timely adapt our capabilities and processes to meet the demands of producing new

and innovative products. Because our newer products contain software and generally are more technologically sophisticated than those we have produced in the past, we must continually refine our capabilities to meet the needs of our product

innovation. In addition, the FST industry continues to experience technological developments and innovations (such as the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning), and if we are unable to provide enhancements, new features and

integrations for our existing platform (due to a lack of investment or otherwise), or if we are unable to efficiently adapt our infrastructure to meet the needs of our product innovations in a timely manner, our business could be negatively impacted.

In addition, even if we, or developers on our behalf, successfully develop such products, there is no assurance that our innovations will be accepted by

our customers. Developing and marketing new products, such as our line of BOHA! products, is costly, and our business could be materially adversely affected if we are unable to generate sufficient sales of such products or if our existing or new

customers do not quickly accept such products. Customer acceptance is crucial because new products typically have little competition and market penetration due to their novelty. Customer acceptance of new products is never assured and may take time

to materialize, even with respect to products developed with customer input. In addition, we may not be able to obtain necessary registrations, licenses, permits or regulatory approvals for new products in the casino and gaming market on a timely

basis or at all, which may adversely affect our ability to develop such products. Further, technological innovation often results in unintended consequences such as bugs, vulnerabilities, and other system failures. Any such bug, vulnerability, or

failure, especially in connection with a significant technical implementation or change, could result in lost business, harm to our brand or reputation, consumer complaints, and other adverse consequences, any of which could materially adversely

affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Partners and Suppliers

Until the in-housing of the BOHA! source code is complete, we continue to rely on third party service providers to

host our FST software and deliver certain services, and any interruptions or delays in services from these third parties could impair the delivery of our products and services, and our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be

materially adversely affected.

We rely on a third-party service provider to host our FST software. Third parties also provide services to key aspects of our operations, including

Internet connections and networking, data storage and processing, trust and safety and security infrastructure. We do not control the operation, physical security, or data security of any of these third-party providers. Our efforts to use

commercially reasonable diligence in the selection and retention of such third-party providers may be insufficient or inadequate to prevent or remediate such operational and security risks. Our third-party providers may be subject to intrusions,

computer viruses, denial-of-service attacks, sabotage, acts of vandalism, acts of terrorism or other misconduct. They are vulnerable to damage or interruption from power loss, telecommunications failures, fires, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes,

tornadoes, and similar events, and they may be subject to financial, legal, regulatory, and labor issues, each of which may impose additional costs or requirements on us or prevent these third parties from providing services to us or our customers on

our behalf. From time to time, our software maintained by these third parties has experienced brief interruptions in service which we have been able to resolve promptly by working with the third-party providers, and there may be future such

interruptions that could have a material adverse effect on our customer relationships or be more costly or time-consuming to resolve. In addition, these third parties may breach their agreements with us, disagree with our interpretation of contract

terms or applicable laws and regulations, refuse to continue or renew these agreements on commercially reasonable terms or at all, fail to or refuse to process transactions or provide other services adequately, take actions that degrade the

functionality of our platform and services, increase prices, impose additional costs or requirements on us or our customers, or give preferential treatment to our competitors. If we are unable to procure alternatives in a timely and efficient manner

and on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be subject to business disruptions, losses, or costs to remediate any of these deficiencies. The occurrence of any of the above events could result in reputational damage, legal or regulatory proceedings,

loss of customers or other adverse consequences, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We are currently dependent upon a manufacturer located in Thailand for the manufacturing and assembly of

substantially all of our printers and terminals, and any further or future disruption in the businesses or operations of this manufacturer or changes to our relationship with this manufacturer/increased costs of products from this manufacturer,

including as a result of political, social or economic instability, war, trade restrictions or tariffs, severe weather, changes in climate, additional public health crises and other events out of our control, could materially adversely affect our

business, financial condition and results of operations.

In an effort to maximize cost savings and operational benefits, we have outsourced substantially all of the manufacturing and assembly of our printers and

terminals to a contract manufacturer located in Thailand. As a result, we are dependent on this manufacturer for the manufacturing of our products, and any disruption in such manufacturing or the export of products from this manufacturer to the

United States, or the cost of such manufacturing and export, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks affecting the businesses and operations of our manufacturer in Thailand

and the cost to us of the products sourced from this manufacturer include: political and regional strife; war; labor shortages; severe weather and natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, fires, and floods, whether as a result of climate

change or otherwise; lengthy power outages; increased pricing, financial instability and capacity constraints of shippers; and concerns with or threats of public health crises, contagious diseases or health epidemics. We are also exposed to risks

relating to the government imposition of tariffs, which may have an impact on the cost or availability of products or components that we purchase. Trade policy between the United States and Thailand, and more broadly, remains subject to

ongoing legislative, executive, judicial and international developments. Changes in tariff rates, the implementation of new trade restrictions, the elimination of existing measures, or retaliatory actions by foreign governments could increase our

operating costs, reduce demand for our products, or disrupt our supply chain. Because the scope, timing and duration of any such measures are uncertain, we cannot predict their ultimate impact on our business, financial condition and results of

operations.

Tariffs have impacted, and we expect that tariffs will continue to impact, certain goods that are assembled and imported from our contract manufacturer in

Thailand. Potential future changes in tariffs and trade policies by the United States on imports from Thailand (or other countries, such as China), retaliatory trade measures in response, or judicial developments affecting existing tariffs have

resulted in cost increases and may in the future result in additional costs and pricing pressures, supply chain disruptions, volatile or unpredictable customer spending patterns and increased economic or geopolitical risk that we may not be able to

offset or otherwise mitigate, any or all of which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If the contract manufacturer is unable to manufacture our products or continue operating its facilities, as occurred in connection with the COVID-19

pandemic, or if cost increases (as a result of tariffs or otherwise) make continued reliance on the contract manufacturer impractical, we will have limited means for the final assembly of a majority of our products until we are able to secure the

manufacturing capability at another facility, develop an alternative manufacturing facility or qualify and begin sourcing from an alternative contract manufacturer, which could be costly and time consuming and have a material adverse effect on our

operating and financial results.

We may also incur increased business continuity and reputational risks to the extent that we continue to outsource the manufacturing and assembly of our

products to foreign third-party service providers. For example, outsourcing of manufacturing prevents us from exercising control over the assembly of certain of our products and related operations or processes, including the internal controls

associated with operations and processes conducted and the quality of our products assembled by contract manufacturers. If we are unable to effectively manage and oversee our outsourcing strategy, we may not realize cost structure efficiencies and

our operating and financial results could be materially adversely affected. Outsourcing also exposes us to increased risk of infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property, to which our manufacturers have access. Because our

manufacturer is located in Asia, there is no guarantee that our intellectual property rights will be protected or enforced to the same extent as under U.S. federal and state laws. Consequently, we may not be able to prevent third parties from

developing or selling products made using our technologies.

Index

We rely on distributors and resellers to sell our products and services.

We use a variety of distribution channels, including OEMs and distributors, to market and sell our products and services. We may be adversely impacted by

any conflicts that could arise between and among our various sales channels.

Our dependence upon distributors and resellers exposes us to numerous risks, including:

• loss of channel and the ability to bring new products to market;

We cannot guarantee that resellers will not reduce, delay or eliminate purchases from us, which could have a material adverse effect upon the business,

consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Operations

Our FST business depends substantially on our customers renewing their subscriptions with the Company. Any decline

in our customer renewals could harm our FST business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our subscription offerings are term-based, and in order for us to maintain or improve our results of operations, it is important that our customers renew

their subscriptions with us when the existing subscription term expires and renew on the same terms or terms more favorable to the Company. Our customers have no obligation to renew their applications and subscriptions, and they may not renew one or

more of their applications as they are purchased separately and individually. We also may not be able to accurately predict customer renewal rates. Customers may elect not to renew their subscriptions with us for a variety of reasons, including as a

result of changes in their strategic priorities, budgets and costs and, in some instances, due to competing solutions. Our retention rate may also decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of other factors, including our customers’ satisfaction or

dissatisfaction with our solutions, the increase in the contract value of subscription and support contracts from new customers, the effectiveness of our customer support services, our pricing, the prices of competing products or services, global

economic conditions and the other risk factors described herein. As a result, there can be no assurance that our FST customers will renew any or all of their individually purchased application subscriptions. If our customers do not renew their

subscriptions or renew on less favorable terms, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Because we rely in part on revenue from subscription contracts and recognize revenue from subscription contracts

over the term of the relevant subscription period, downturns or upturns in sales are not immediately reflected in full in our results of operations.

Subscription services revenue accounts for a growing portion of our FST revenue. Sales of new or renewal subscription contracts may decline or fluctuate as

a result of a number of factors, including customers’ level of satisfaction with our solutions, the prices of our subscriptions, the prices and features of products or subscriptions offered by our competitors, reductions in our customers’ spending

levels, or other changes in consumer behavior. If our sales of new or renewal subscription contracts decline, our revenue and revenue growth may decline. We recognize subscription revenue ratably over the term of the relevant subscription period,

which is generally 12 months in duration. As a result, much of the subscription revenue we report each quarter is derived from subscription contracts that we sold in prior quarters.

Consequently, a decline in new or renewed subscription contracts in any one quarter will not be fully reflected in revenue in that quarter but will

negatively affect our revenue in future quarters. Accordingly, the effect of a significant downturn in new or renewal sales of our subscriptions is not reflected in full in our results of operations in a given period. Also, it is difficult for us to

rapidly increase our subscription revenue through additional sales in any period, as revenue from new and renewal subscription contracts must be recognized ratably over the applicable subscription period. Furthermore, any increases in the average

term of subscription contracts would result in revenue for those subscription contracts being recognized over longer periods of time.

Our calculation of recurring revenue and average revenue per unit (“ARPU”) may differ from how other SaaS-based

companies calculate such metrics; our definitions include sales of our consumable labels, which generally fluctuate from period to period.

We use recurring revenue and ARPU as performance indicators in connection with our FST market, and we include consumable label sales, in addition to

subscription software, extended warranty and service contracts, in our calculation of these metrics. Consumable labels are not sold on a subscription basis or subject to any minimum purchase requirements. In addition, our label sales typically

fluctuate and are dependent upon the current demand from food service and restaurant customers, which may be affected by factors such as general economic downturns and seasonality. As a result, our use and definitions of recurring revenue and ARPU

may not be comparable with, and may be subject to, increased fluctuation relative to those of other SaaS-based companies that do not include non-subscription components such as label sales in their definitions of recurring revenue or ARPU.

Index

Overestimates or underestimates in our manufacturing forecasts could cause us to hold insufficient or excess

inventory or result in delays in the manufacturing and delivery of our products, which could interfere with our ability to retain orders or provide services to our customers.

If we fail to predict our manufacturing requirements accurately, we could incur additional costs or experience manufacturing delays. We currently use a

rolling 12-month forecast based primarily on our anticipated product orders and our product order history to help determine our requirements for purchasing components, raw materials and finished products. It is important that we accurately predict

both the demand for our products and the lead-time required to obtain the necessary components, raw materials and finished products. We have also modified our products in the past to substitute available components in the place of those that have

become scarce or difficult to obtain, and in some instances have identified alternate sources for certain components.

Lead times for materials and components that we order vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, the size of the order,

contract terms, and demand for each component at a given time, as well as supply shortages with respect to raw materials needed to produce the components. If we underestimate our requirements, or if we are unable to obtain components on time due to

supply shortages, as occurred during the global supply chain disruptions in 2022 and 2023, we may have inadequate manufacturing capacity or

inventory, which could interrupt manufacturing of our products and interfere with our ability to timely deliver products to our customers and adversely impact our sales. Alternatively, if we overestimate our requirements, we could have excess

inventory of parts and finished products. Some of the actions we took to meet customer demand in the face of the supply chain disruptions in 2022 and 2023 raised our costs and decreased margins on our products, and any such actions that we take in

the future could have a similar effect. Any future underestimate or overestimate of supply requirements, and any actions we may take in the future to navigate supply chain disruptions, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results

of operations.

We depend on key personnel, the loss of whom could have a material adverse impact on our business.

Our future success may depend in significant part upon the continued service of certain key management and other personnel. There can be no assurance that

we will be able to recruit and retain such personnel. The loss of either John M. Dillon, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, or Steven A. DeMartino, the Company’s President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, or the loss of certain

groups of key employees, such as our sales, operations and engineering teams, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our ability to recruit, retain, and develop qualified personnel is critical to our success and growth.

To successfully compete and grow our business, we must recruit, develop and retain highly qualified managerial, technical and sales and marketing

personnel. In addition, we must develop, maintain and, as necessary, implement appropriate succession plans to ensure we have the necessary human resources capable of maintaining continuity in our business.

The market for qualified personnel is competitive, and we may not succeed in recruiting additional personnel or may fail to effectively replace current

personnel who depart with qualified or effective successors. Our effort to retain and develop personnel may also result in significant additional expenses, which could adversely affect our profitability. We are also substantially dependent on our

sales force to obtain new customers and increase sales to existing customers. There is significant competition for sales personnel with the skills and technical knowledge that we require. Our ability to achieve significant revenue growth will depend,

in large part, on our success in recruiting, training, and retaining a sufficient number of sales personnel to support our growth. If we are unable to hire, train, and retain a sufficient number of qualified and successful sales personnel, our

business, financial condition, and results of operations may be harmed.

If we fail to offer high quality support, our business and reputation could suffer.

Our customers rely on us and our third-party service providers for support of our software and services included in our FST subscription packages.

High-quality support is important for the renewal and expansion of our agreements with existing customers. The importance of high-quality support will increase as we expand our business and pursue new customers. If we or our third-party service

providers do not help our customers quickly resolve issues and provide effective ongoing support, our ability to sell new FST products to existing and new customers could suffer and our reputation and relationships with existing or potential

customers could be harmed.

We experience elements of seasonal fluctuations in the FST and POS markets which could cause our stock price to

fluctuate.

Our FST business is highly dependent on the behavior patterns of our customers and their guests. Restaurants typically reduce purchases of equipment in the

fourth calendar quarter due to the increased volume of transactions during the holiday period, which may negatively impact sales of our FST products or POS printers during that period. As a result, seasonality may cause fluctuations in our financial

results, and other trends that develop may similarly impact our results of operations.

Risks Related to Competition, Sales and Marketing

We compete in highly competitive markets, which are likely to become more competitive. Competitors may be able to

respond more quickly to new or emerging technology and changes in customer requirements.

We face significant competition in developing and selling our printers, terminals, software, labels and services. Our principal competitors have

substantial marketing, financial, development and personnel resources. To remain competitive, we believe we must continue to provide:

• technologically advanced products that satisfy user demands;

• superior customer service;

• high levels of quality and reliability; and

• dependable and efficient distribution networks.

11

Index

We cannot ensure we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors. Increased competition may result in price reductions,

lower gross profit margins and loss of market share, and could require increased spending on research and development, sales and marketing and customer support. For example, during 2025 we experienced increased competitive pressure in the POS

automation market, which has led to price reductions on our POS automation printer and reduced sales in this market. In addition, some competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships with suppliers or companies that

produce complementary products. Any of these factors could reduce our earnings.

Our FST market operates in an emerging and evolving industry, which makes it difficult to evaluate the future

prospects of this market.

We launched our BOHA! line of products in 2019 and have grown our FST offerings significantly since then. This is a continually evolving market as

technology develops to automate back-of-house tasks that were historically performed manually. This evolving nature of the FST market may make it difficult to evaluate our future prospects in this market and the risks and challenges we may

encounter. These risks and challenges include, but are not limited to, our ability to:

• accurately forecast our revenue and plan our operating expenses;

• successfully compete with current and future competitors;

• maintain and enhance the value of our reputation and brand;

• avoid interruptions or disruptions in our service; and

Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Data Security

Cybersecurity and privacy breaches, cyber-attacks, or other disruptions could expose us to liability, affect our

business, and damage our reputation.

We are increasingly dependent on information technology systems and infrastructure for our business. We collect, store, and transmit sensitive information

including intellectual property, proprietary business information and personal information of employees and, to a lesser extent, customers in connection with business operations. Further, our BOHA! applications currently rely on a third-party cloud

service provider and will continue to be hosted by existing third-party cloud service providers following the transition of the BOHA! source code to TransAct. The

secure maintenance of the information stored on our systems and such third-party systems is critical to our operations and business strategy. Any system outages, and any interruptions or other disruptions to our software applications, including as a

result of unexpected errors or mistakes in connection with over-the-air updates, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

In addition, some of the information that we and third-party service providers collect, store and transmit could be an attractive target of criminal attack

by third parties with a wide range of motives and expertise, including organized criminal groups, disgruntled current or former employees, and others. Cyber-attacks are of ever-increasing levels of sophistication, and despite our extensive security

measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to such attacks or may be breached, including due to employee error or malfeasance. We have experienced such breaches in the past, but they have not had a material effect on

our business, financial condition or results of operations. Any such breach that occurs in the future could compromise our networks or the networks of third-party service providers, and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly

disclosed, lost or stolen, and our business operations may be interrupted. If our systems become compromised, we may not promptly discover the intrusion. In addition, the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to networks, or to sabotage IT

systems, change and evolve frequently, including through the use of artificial intelligence and quantum computing, and generally are not recognized until launched against a target. We may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement

adequate preventative measures.Like other companies in our industry, we have experienced attacks to our data and systems, including malware and computer viruses

that we have been able to detect and eliminate, and incidents resulting in immaterial disruptions to our business that were remediated. If our systems fail or are breached or disrupted by future attacks, we could lose product sales and suffer other

adverse consequences, such as reputational damage, litigation, remediation costs, ransomware payments, and loss of customer confidence and the confidence of our vendors and suppliers. Such incidents could require notification to affected individuals

and may result in legal claims or proceedings and liability under federal and state laws that protect the privacy and security of personal information. If third parties use a cyber-attack to gain access to our proprietary information, they may sell

it or use it to duplicate our products, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Any one of these events could cause our business to be materially harmed and our results of operations to be adversely impacted, and there can be no assurance

that the insurance that we maintain to address certain aspects of cybersecurity risks will be sufficient to cover all losses or all types of claims that may arise.

These risks may be exacerbated by global political unrest. For example, the Russia–Ukraine war and other international hostilities, and related sanctions

imposed by the U.S. government may expose government entities and public and private U.S. companies to attempted or actual cyber-security attacks launched for geopolitical reasons or in conjunction with, or to finance, military conflicts and defense

activities. These attacks could materially disrupt our supply chain or our systems and operations or those of our customers and suppliers and may lead to loss of data and income, reputational harm and diversion of funds. See Part I, Item 1C.

Cybersecurity, of this Form 10-K for information regarding our cybersecurity risk management practices.

The inability to protect our intellectual property rights could harm our reputation, damage our business or

interfere with our competitive position.

Our intellectual property is valuable and provides us with certain competitive advantages. Copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets,

technology licensing agreements, nondisclosure agreements and contracts are used to protect these proprietary rights. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for third parties to copy aspects of our products or, without authorization, to obtain

and use information that we regard as trade secrets. Our pending patents may be denied, and our patents may be circumvented by our competitors. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights as fully as the

laws of the United States. There can be no assurance that our means of protecting our proprietary rights in the United States or abroad will be adequate or that competing companies will not independently develop similar technologies. Our failure to

adequately protect our proprietary rights could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position and our business.

Prosecuting or defending against intellectual property litigation could be time consuming and costly, and claims

that we have infringed upon the intellectual property rights of others could impede our business and put us at a competitive disadvantage.

Prosecuting and defending against intellectual property litigation is generally complex, costly, protracted, and highly disruptive to business operations

by diverting the attention and energies of management and key technical personnel. We are committed to aggressively asserting and defending our technology and related intellectual property rights, which we have spent a significant amount of money to

develop. Similarly, third parties have claimed and may claim, from time to time in the future, that we have violated their intellectual property rights. In the event that a court rules that we have violated a third party’s patent or other

intellectual property rights, we may be prevented from operating our business as planned and may be required to pay damages, to obtain a license, if available, or to use a non-infringing method, if possible, to accomplish our objectives. Litigation

relating to any such claims could be costly and, if successful, could result in costly judgments or settlements, and there can be no assurance that a license or a substitute technology will be available on favorable terms, or at all. Any such outcome

could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may face difficulty keeping up with

market developments in artificial intelligence and machine learning, and any such developments may be subject to rapidly evolving and extensive regulation.

Our industry is marked by rapid technological developments and innovations (such as the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning) and evolving

industry standards. If we are unable to provide enhancements and new features and integrations for our existing platform, develop new products that achieve market acceptance, or innovate quickly enough to keep pace with these rapid technological

developments, our business could be harmed.

In addition, laws and regulations regarding artificial intelligence and machine learning are evolving rapidly. Technology underlying artificial

intelligence and machine learning, and the use of such technologies, are subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including intellectual property, data privacy and cybersecurity, consumer protection and competition laws, and are expected to be

subject to increased regulation and new laws or new applications of existing laws and regulations, which may vary by jurisdiction. Further, because these technologies are highly complex and rapidly developing, it is not possible to predict all of the

legal, operational or technological risks that may arise relating to the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Risks Related to Our Customers

We are dependent on sales to one large customer; the loss of this customer or reduction in orders from this customer

could materially affect our sales.

Casino and gaming sales to Light & Wonder represent a material percentage of our net sales. A reduction, delay or cancellation in orders from this

customer, including reductions or delays due to market, economic, or competitive conditions in the industries in which we serve, could have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations.

Risks Related to Our International Operations

In addition to maintaining offices in the UK and Macau, we sell and ship a significant portion of our products

internationally and rely on third parties that make up part of our global salesforce. The international nature of our operations may expose us to certain risks associated with doing business outside of the U.S., including risks posed by tariffs and

changes in trade relations.

We sell a significant amount of our products to customers outside the United States. Shipments to international customers are expected to continue to

account for a material portion of net sales. In addition, our manufacturer and suppliers are largely located in Thailand. As a result, our products are largely exported to one of our facilities in the United States, which makes our operations

vulnerable to disruptions in trade that could adversely affect our business results. For a discussion of risks related to our Thailand-based manufacturer, including tariffs and other trade actions, see the risk factor above captioned “We are currently dependent upon a manufacturer located in Thailand for the manufacturing and assembly of substantially all of our printers and terminals, and any further or

future disruption in the businesses or operations of this manufacturer or changes to our relationship with this manufacturer/increased costs of products from this manufacturer, including as a result of political, social or economic instability,

war, trade restrictions or tariffs, severe weather, changes in climate, additional public health crises and other events out of our control, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.”

Our international operations, including our reliance on manufacturers and suppliers located in Thailand, our worldwide sales team, and our sales to

customers located outside the United States, expose us to disruptions in trade and other associated risks such as:

• difficulties staffing and managing foreign operations; and

Our business interruption insurance does not cover all possible situations, and there can be no assurance that the coverage would be adequate to compensate

us for all losses that may occur in the event of a disruption. In addition, the business interruption insurance would not compensate us for the loss of opportunity and potential adverse impact, both short-term and long-term, on relations with our

existing customers resulting from our inability to produce products for them.

Risks Related to Global Political and Economic Conditions

We purchase component parts and labels from third-party and sole-source suppliers, and any interference with this

supply chain may impact our ability to manufacture and sell our products.

We rely on third-party or sole-source suppliers to provide certain key components for our products. We do not have guaranteed supply contracts with any of

our component suppliers, and our suppliers could delay shipments, increase prices or cease manufacturing or selling such components to us at any time, as occurred as a result of such as the shortages in global microchip availability we experienced

during much of 2022 and 2023. These disruptions resulted in delays in delivery of products to customers and similar disruptions in the future could result in additional delays, even if we are able to source components from alternate suppliers.

Supply chain disruptions have, in the past, impacted our ability to maintain sufficient inventory on hand. As a result, we have paid, and if disruptions recur we may have to pay in the future, increased shipping charges to expedite our receipt of

components and inventory and the delivery of finished products to our customers. In addition, we have incurred increased costs to obtain certain products and components from alternate suppliers when our usual suppliers did not have products

available for us, and we may incur such costs in the future if we need to seek alternate suppliers for any of our components. Cost increases and component shortages may be exacerbated by events beyond our control, such as changing economic

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 23 headings are on that chain and 17 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
