Risk exposure broadened materially across macro, competitive, operational, and technology dimensions, with no single existential trigger but a pervasive pattern of escalation. Cybersecurity threats are sharply expanded—now explicitly naming foreign-government actors, AI-enabled attacks, and AI-accelerated vulnerability exploitation—while geopolitical risks have grown to encompass tariff volatility, Strait of Hormuz disruption, and potential strategic exits from certain markets. Competitive and operational pressures compound the picture, with new disclosures on retail media cannibalization, marketplace third-party risks, memory supply constraints, and rising partner dependency limiting cost leverage.
