Risk Factors (Cont.) We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses could continue to adversely affect the combined company's ability to report its results of operations and financial condition accurately and in a timely manner. If we experience a significant disruption in our information technology systems, including security breaches, or if we fail to implement new systems and software successfully, our business operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. International sales by us and our industry partners expose us and our industry partners to the risk of fluctuation in currency exchange rates and rates of foreign inflation, which could adversely affect our results of operations. Changes in interest rates and capital availability may impact investment and financing decisions by our industry partners, which could adversely affect our results of operations. Any failure by us to manage acquisitions and other significant transactions successfully may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. Our company culture has contributed to our success, and if we cannot maintain this culture as we grow, our business could be harmed. Causes of supply chain challenges, including COVID-19, could result in delays or increased costs for us and our partners deploying our technologies. We and our industry partners have a limited operating history utilizing our technology and different feedstocks, which may make it difficult to evaluate our future viability and predict our future performance. We have not yet generated material revenues from marketing of CarbonSmart products and sale of equipment and our revenue forecast must be considered in light of the uncertainty and risks frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited. Changes in U.S. and foreign tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flow, results of operations or financial conditions. Political and economic uncertainty, including changes in policies of the Chinese government or in relations between China and the United States, may impact our revenue and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Products produced by our process technologies compete with or are intended to displace comparable products produced using fossil resources. The market prices for these alternatively produced products and commodities are subject to volatility and there is a limited referenceable market for the more sustainable, waste based products that our process technologies enable. Our patent rights may not provide commercially meaningful protection against competition. Differences and uncertainties with respect to legal systems outside the United States could adversely affect the legal protection available to us. We may not be able to operate our business without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. Trade secrets can be difficult to protect and enforce, and our inability to do so could adversely affect our competitive position. If trade secrets are stolen, misappropriated or reverse engineered, others could use these designs to produce competing products. We may not retain exclusive rights to intellectual property created as a result of our strategic partnering arrangements which could limit our prospects and result in costly and time-consuming disputes. Some of our intellectual property may be subject to federal regulation such as "march-in" rights, reporting requirements and a preference for U.S. industry, and any such regulations could negatively impact our business and prospects. We depend on certain technologies that are licensed to us. We do not control these technologies and any loss of our rights to them could prevent us from developing or selling our process technologies. Any strategic partnering arrangement that involves the licensing of any of our intellectual property may increase our risks, harm our competitive position and increase our costs. We may be involved in lawsuits to protect or enforce our patents or the patents of our licensors, or lawsuits asserted by a third party, which could be expensive, time consuming and unsuccessful.
