 predictions regarding our future success or viability may not be
as accurate as they could be if we had a longer operating history or had previously achieved profitability.

We
may be unable to manage our future growth effectively, which could make it difficult to execute our business strategy.

Our
growth has placed, and may continue to place, significant demands on our organizational, administrative, and operational infrastructure,
including manufacturing operations, quality control, technical support and customer service, sales force management and general and financial
administration. As we continue to grow, we will need to make significant investments in multiple divisions of our company, including
in sales, marketing, product development, information technology, equipment, facilities, and human resources. We will also need to improve
our operational, financial and management controls as well as our reporting systems and procedures.

If
we are unable to manage our growth effectively, we may be unable to execute our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect
on our business and our results of operations. Managing our planned growth effectively will require us to:

    ●
    maintain a low cost of customer acquisition
    relative to customer lifetime value;

    ●
    identify products that will be viewed favorably
    by customers;

    ●
    expand operations with our contract manufacturers;
    and

    ●
    successfully hire, train, and motivate additional
    employees, including additional personnel for our technology, sales and marketing efforts.

The
expansion of our products and customer base may result in increases in our overhead and selling expenses. Any increase in expenditures
in anticipation of future sales that do not materialize would adversely affect our profitability. In addition, if we are unable to effectively
manage the growth of our business, the quality of our products may suffer and we may be unable to address competitive challenges, which
would adversely affect our overall business, operations, and financial condition.

Our
disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.

Upon
the completion of the IPO, we became subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange Act”), and implemented disclosure controls and procedures to reasonably assure that information we must disclose
in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. However, we believe that any disclosure controls and
procedures or internal controls and procedures, no
