As additional information becomes available, we assess the potential liability and revise estimates as appropriate. However, because of uncertainties relating to litigation, the amount of our estimates could be wrong. Any adverse determination related to litigation, or even the burdens of litigation or potential threat of liability, could require us to change our technology or our business practices, pay monetary damages, or enter into royalty or licensing arrangements, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows, harm our reputation, or otherwise negatively impact our business.

In addition, acts of terrorism and other geopolitical unrest could cause disruptions in our business or the businesses of our customers and partners or the economy as a whole.
