 an impact on the terms upon which we and our contract manufacturers are able to obtain access to components or accessories and materials from particular suppliers. If we or our contract manufacturers lose access to components or accessories and materials from a particular supplier or experience a significant disruption in the supply of products and components from a current supplier, we may be unable to locate alternative suppliers of comparable quality on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all, which may undermine our ability to deliver our products to brick-and-mortar and online retail partners or users in a timely manner and our business could be materially and adversely affected. Such supply chain issues, if severe enough, could also affect our contract manufacturers’ ability to remain in business, which would require us to shift production of products made by such manufacturers to other of our manufacturers or new manufacturers, either of which could result in delays in delivery of our products and could have a material and adverse effect on our business. In addition, if we experience an increase in demand for our products, our suppliers may not have the capacity or may elect not to meet our needs as they allocate components or accessories and materials to their other customers. Identifying suitable alternate sources of supply for these components or accessories and materials is an extensive process that requires us to become satisfied with their quality control, technical capabilities, responsiveness and service, financial stability, regulatory compliance and labor and other ethical practices. Accordingly, a loss of any of our component or accessories and materials suppliers could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Our reliance on single source, or a small number of suppliers involves a number of additional risks, including risks related to supplier capacity constraints, price increases, timely delivery, component quality, electronic component availability, failure of a key supplier to remain in business and adjust to market conditions, delays in or the ability to execute on a supplier roadmap, and natural disasters. Acquiring additional suppliers could be time consuming and expensive, particularly given the complexity of our connected machines and their components.

In particular, our connected machines incorporate certain alloys, resins, sheet metals, and electronic components that are critical to the performance of our connected machines. The global availability of these components remains constrained. These components have unique performance profiles, and, as a result, it is not commercially practical to support multiple sources for these components for our products. We do not currently have alternative suppliers for several key components. In the event that any of our key or sole suppliers for any of our components are unable to supply the components that our manufacturers need to meet anticipated consumer demand, our
