Increased scrutiny from shareholders, customers and other stakeholders regarding our environmental, social, and governance, or sustainability responsibilities, could adversely impact our liquidity, results of operations, reputation, and stock price.

Shareholders, customers and other stakeholders have begun to consider how corporations are addressing environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) issues. Government regulators, investors, customers and the general public are increasingly focused on ESG practices and disclosures, and views about ESG are diverse and rapidly changing. These shifts in investing priorities may result in adverse effects on the trading price of our common stock if investors determine that the Company has not made sufficient progress on ESG matters.

Disruptions to our systems, breaches in the security of transactions involving our products or services, or failure of our processing systems could adversely affect our reputation, business and results of operations. 

We rely on information technology and other systems to transmit financial information of consumers making cashless transactions and to provide accounting and inventory management services to our customers. As such, the information we transmit and/or maintain is exposed to the ever-evolving threat of compromised security, in the form of a risk of potential breach, system failure, computer virus, cyber-attack or unauthorized or fraudulent use by consumers, customers, company employees, or employees of third party vendors. While we have implemented various cybersecurity defense mechanisms and risk management initiatives, there can be no assurance that such mechanisms and initiatives will be effective, and may experience a cybersecurity breach. A cybersecurity breach of our informational technology systems, or those of third parties upon whom we rely, could result in disclosure of confidential information and intellectual property, or cause operational disruptions and compromised data. We may be unable to anticipate or prevent techniques to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems because they change frequently and often are not detected until after an incident has occurred. Further, cybersecurity attacks are becoming more frequent and sophisticated, including through emerging AI technologies, which may intensify or exacerbate cybersecurity risks or introduce
