 Cybersecurity Review
 On December 28, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”), and 12 other PRC government authorities jointly published the amended Cybersecurity Review Measures, which came into effect on February 15, 2022. The final Cybersecurity Review Measures provide that a “network platform operator” that possesses personal information of more than one million users and seeks a listing in a foreign country must apply for a cybersecurity review. Any network product or service or any data processing activity that affects or may affect national security as deemed by member organizations of the cybersecurity review mechanism shall be reviewed under the Cybersecurity Review Measures after the Cybersecurity Review Office reports it to the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission for review, as per the procedure.
 We and our PRC subsidiaries do not carry out business in China through any self-owned network platform and hold personal information of less than one million individuals from PRC operations. We and our PRC subsidiaries have not been identified as critical information infrastructure operators by any PRC authorities. The data collected from our China operations is mainly information related to our production, customers, suppliers and our employees. We believe that we and our PRC subsidiaries do not commit any acts that threaten or endanger the national security of the PRC, and to our knowledge we and our PRC subsidiaries have not received or been subject to any investigation, notice, warning or sanction from any PRC authority with respect to national security issues arising from our business operations. As of the date of this annual report, we do not believe that we need to proactively apply for the cybersecurity review required by the CAC. See, “Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our PRC Operations and Doing Business in the PRC — Failure to comply with PRC regulations and other legal obligations concerning data protection and cybersecurity may materially and adversely affect our business, as we routinely collect, store and use data
