Risk Radar (year-over-year Risk Factors)

← All Risk Radar

Fiscal period ending 2025-12-31 versus 2024-12-31view filing on EDGAR →

Risk exposure broadened materially across five distinct themes — geopolitical/trade, regulatory compliance, supply chain, market competition, and technology — driven primarily by U.S.-China trade escalation, expanded semiconductor export controls, and AI-related uncertainties. Regulatory complexity is the sharpest single escalation, with new DOJ data-transfer restrictions, NIS2/DORA mandates, Chinese retaliatory measures, foreign investment barriers, and enacted tax legislation (OBBB Act, OECD safe harbor) all added concurrently. The one meaningful offset — resolution of WSOU patent litigation — is outweighed by a new general litigation risk acknowledgment and the breadth of worsening elsewhere.
