This excerpt taken from the RVBD 10-K filed Feb 15, 2008. Risks Related to Our Business and Industry STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px">We compete in new and rapidly evolving markets and have a limited operating history, which make it difficult to predict our future operating results. STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:5%">We were incorporated in May 2002 and shipped our first Steelhead appliance in May 2004. We have a limited operating history and offer a single line of products inan industry characterized by rapid technological change. It is very difficult to forecast our future operating results. You should consider and evaluate our prospects in light of the risks and uncertainty frequently encountered by early stage companies in rapidly evolving markets characterized by rapid technological change, changing customer needs, evolving industry standards and frequent introductions of new products and services. As we encounter rapidly changing customer requirements and increasing competitive pressures, we likely will be required to reposition our product and service offerings and introduce new products and services. We may not be successful in doing so in a timely and appropriately responsive manner, or at all. Furthermore, because we compete in an early stage market, many of our target customers have not purchased products similar to ours and might not have a specific budget for the purchase of our products and services. All of these factors make it difficult to predict our future operating results. |
