Riskit

Socket Mobile is exposed to channel concentration, distributor inventory swings, and product return/price protection risk because it relies on third-party distributors for most sales. It also faces supply-chain, tariff, export, and component-availability risks from outsourced manufacturing across multiple countries, along with competitive and technology obsolescence risk in mobile data capture.
