 independent contractors, our developers have used industry-standard open-source software in connection with the development of the platform. The use of “open-source” code entails greater risks than the use of commercial software, as open-source licensors generally do not provide warranties or other contractual protections regarding infringement claims or the quality of the code, and the code may be more susceptible to hackers and other security risks. Furthermore, our future success depends in part on our ability to maintain, improve and adapt our data analysis technologies, including the WAVE platform, to meet the operational requirements of our infrastructure network and address the needs of our customers. We rely on our WAVE platform and the systems underlying it for data gathering, logistics optimization and scenario planning in order to enhance our entire network. Many of our competitors also utilize various data analysis technologies, and if we fail to maintain, improve and adapt our own technologies, our competitors may develop similar or more advanced technologies, which could result in new and existing customers seeking commercial opportunities with our competitors. Even if we are successful in innovating our data analysis technologies, such innovations may not result in the intended benefits or have a significant impact on our business, or our data analysis technologies may become obsolete. Failing to maintain, improve and adapt our data analysis technologies, including the WAVE platform, could negatively impact our ability to service new and existing customers and may diminish our competitive advantage.

Additionally, it is possible that certain of our data analysis technologies, including the WAVE platform or those we license from third parties, as well as other aspects of our business, could infringe the intellectual property rights of others, and from time to time, we may be subject to allegations that we infringe such rights. If we are unable to successfully defend against such claims or license necessary third-party technology or intellectual property on acceptable terms, we may be required to develop alternative, non-infringing technology, which could require significant time, effort and expense, and any attempt to develop non-infringing technology may ultimately not be successful. Any claims of infringement, misappropriation or other claims for violations of intellectual property, regardless of merit, may result in substantial costs to us and a substantial diversion of management’s attention, and could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Our customer contracts are subject to renewal risks.
