. We may record impairment charges in relation to our strategic investments which will have a negative impact on our financial position.
Investments in companies where we do not have majority ownership expose us to decisions made by others, as we have lesser degree of control. This may expose us to additional reputational, financial, legal, compliance or operational risks. This could impact our ability to align the strategic goals of such companies with our goals and may impact the returns on our investment. We may also be required to exit such investments at inopportune times or make further investments based on current shareholder agreements. Such further investments may have to be made at a time when the venture is financially struggling, and this may erode or dilute its value to our shareholders.
We may engage in future acquisitions that may not be successful or meet our expectations.
We have acquired, and in the future may acquire or make investments in, complementary businesses, technologies, services or products, or enter into strategic partnerships or joint ventures with parties that we believe can provide access to new markets, capabilities or assets. After reaching an agreement for the acquisition of a business, we are subject to the satisfaction of pre-closing conditions as well as certain regulatory and governmental approvals on acceptable terms, which, if not satisfied or obtained, may prevent us from completing the transaction. Such regulatory and governmental approvals may be required in jurisdictions around the world, and any delays in the timing of such approvals could materially delay or prevent the transaction. Changes in competition laws in India and abroad could also impact our acquisition plans by prohibiting potential transactions which could otherwise be beneficial for us.
The acquisition of new businesses subjects us to many risks, and we can provide no assurances that any such acquisition will be successful or meet our expectations. If it does not, we may suffer losses, dilute value to shareholders, may not be able to take advantage of appropriate investment opportunities or complete other transactions on terms commercially acceptable to us. It may take longer than expected to realize the full benefits from these transactions and arrangements, such as increased revenue or synergies, or the benefits may ultimately be smaller than we expected, which could adversely affect our financial position.
