In addition, some of our suppliers, joint design manufacturers, and logistics providers may have more established relationships with larger-volume device manufacturers, and as a result of such relationships, such suppliers may choose to limit or terminate their relationship with us. Developing suitable alternate sources of supply for these devices and components may be time-consuming, difficult, and costly, and we may not be able to source these devices and components on terms that are favorable to us, or at all, which may adversely affect our ability to meet our requirements or provide our customers with needed IoT devices in a timely or cost-effective manner. Because our customers often must install IoT devices before being able to fully utilize our Connected Operations Platform, any interruption or delay in the supply of any of these devices or components, or the inability to obtain these devices or components from alternate sources at acceptable prices and within a reasonable amount of time, would harm our ability to onboard new customers.

Evolving trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers by the United States and other countries, can have the effect of increasing production costs and creating disruptions and delays in supply chains. We expect that the occurrence of these developments in regions where we operate, such as North America and Europe, would likely increase the cost of our devices, disrupt supply chain logistics, and affect our ability to efficiently transport, store, and deliver our IoT devices to customers, which could negatively impact our revenue growth and operating margins. Our efforts to optimize our supply chain and manufacturing practices in light of evolving trade policies, component, production, and transportation costs, and other factors can be expensive, time-consuming, and disruptive to our business and results of operations and may not result in their intended consequences.

Our business may be materially and adversely impacted by U.S. and global market, political, and economic conditions, including elevated inflation rates and evolving trade policies.

We generate our revenue from selling subscriptions to our Connected Operations Platform to industries that depend on physical operations. These industries include transportation, construction, wholesale and retail trade, field services, logistics, manufacturing, utilities and energy, government, healthcare and education, food and beverage, and others. Given the concentration of our business activities in these industries and their susceptibility to disruption in times of economic uncertainty, we will be particularly exposed to macroeconomic pressures and downturn
