Risks

The company depends on a small number of customers, so the loss or payment delay of a major account could materially affect results and receivables. It also faces competitive pressure from traditional cleaning companies and aqueous ozone competitors, plus regulatory, operational, and international-execution risks tied to products that contain ozone and to expansion outside the United States.
