 future third party providers fail to keep up with the market demand for our potential products and services or become obsolete in the industry.

We may face competition from other Smart Mailbox for Automation companies, many of which have substantially greater resources.

The SMA industry is evolving rapidly and is highly competitive. There are many Smart Lockerbox and Smart Mailbox companies. What largely distinguishes our offerings is our focus and patents for Smart Mailboxes that support Automation, like drones and mobile robotics, in the delivery and pickup from our mailboxes. Our direct competitors include, but are not limited to, Matternet, and Valqari. Carriers like FedEx and UPS and retailers like Walmart and CVS have automation efforts underway as well but they are prospective customers for us. Some of these competitive firms have substantially greater financial, management, research and marketing resources than we have. Our Smart Mailbox for Automation business may also face competition from smaller businesses. Our competitors may be able to provide customers with different or greater capabilities or benefits than we can provide in areas such as technical qualifications, past contract performance, geographic presence, price and the availability of key professional personnel, including those with security clearances. Furthermore, our competitors may be able to utilize their substantially greater resources and economies of scale to develop competing products, services, and technologies more efficiently, divert sales away from us by winning broader contracts, or hire away our employees by offering more lucrative compensation packages. The market for drone and robotic delivery is expanding, and competition intensifying which both provides an opportunity for our Smart Mailboxes but also may create additional competitors to enter the market, and current competitors expand their product and service lines. In order to secure contracts successfully when competing with larger, well-financed companies, we may be forced to agree to contractual terms that provide for lower aggregate payments to us over the life of our future contracts, which could adversely affect our margins upon commencement of our commercial operations once we start providing our services to our potential customers. In addition, larger diversified competitors serving as prime contractors may be able to supply underlying products and services from affiliated entities, which would prevent us from competing for subcontracting opportunities on these contracts. Our failure to compete effectively with respect to any of these or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results.

If the drone and mobile robot automated delivery and pickup services do not experience significant growth, if we cannot create and expand our customer base, or if our products and these services do not achieve broad acceptance, then we may not be
