Risks
XMax is exposed to demand swings in furniture, where sales depend on consumer spending, housing activity, and retailer ordering patterns. It also faces sourcing and tariff risk tied to China and other Asian manufacturing locations, along with execution risk around inventory, receivables, and product returns in a principal-based distribution model.
Furniture purchases are discretionary and tied to real estate activity.

Exposure: Imported product costs and availability
