. The reduction, modification or elimination of such benefits could adversely affect our financial results.” Going forward, it is uncertain how macroeconomic factors will impact demand for ePTWs, particularly since they can be more expensive than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles, when the automotive industry globally has been experiencing a recent decline in sales.

While many global OEMs and several new market entrants have announced plans for new ePTW models, the lineup of ePTW models with increasing fast charging needs or longer battery charge expected to come to market over the next several years may not materialize in that timeframe or may fail to attract sufficient customer demand. Demand for ePTWs may also be affected by factors directly impacting automobile prices or the cost of purchasing and operating automobiles, such as sales and financing incentives, prices of raw materials and parts and components, cost of fuel and governmental regulations, including tariffs, import regulation and other taxes. Volatility in demand may lead to lower vehicle unit sales, which may result in reduced demand for ePTW charging solutions and therefore adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The ePTW markets are characterized by rapid technological change, which requires us to continue to develop new products and product innovations. Any delays in such development could adversely affect market adoption of our products and our financial results.

Continuing technological changes in battery and other ePTW technologies could adversely affect adoption of current ePTW battery technology, continuing and increasing reliance on ePTW charging infrastructure and battery swapping stations and/or the use of our products and services. Our future success will depend in part upon our ability to develop and introduce a variety of new capabilities and innovations to our existing product offerings, as well as introduce a variety of new product offerings to address the changing needs of the ePTW battery market.

As ePTW technologies change, we may need to upgrade or adapt our battery swapping station technology and introduce new products and services in order to serve the ePTW market, in particular battery technology, which could involve substantial costs. Even if we are able to keep pace with changes in technology and develop new products and services, our research and development expenses could increase, our gross margins could be adversely affected in some periods and our prior products could become obsolete more quickly than expected.

We cannot guarantee that any new products will be released in a timely manner, or at all, or achieve market acceptance. Delays in delivering new products that meet customer requirements could damage our relationships with customers and lead them to seek alternative products or services. Delays in
