Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Butterfly Network, Inc. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 27, 2026: 51 risks under these headings, as written.6

  • You should consider carefully the following risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this report. If any of the following risks, either alone or taken together, or other risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe to not be significant, develop into actual events, then our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, the market price of our common stock could decline, and stockholders may lose all or part of their investment.
  • Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this section to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Butterfly Network, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
  • Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Capital Requirements
  • We have a limited history of generating revenue from sales of our products, and we have incurred significant losses since inception. We anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for at least the next several years as we continue to commercialize our existing products and services and seek to develop and commercialize new products and services.
  • Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
  • Our success depends upon market acceptance of our products and services, our ability to develop and commercialize existing and new products and services and generate revenues, and our ability to identify new markets for our technology.
  • Medical device development is costly and involves continual technological change, which may render our current or future medical devices obsolete.
  • We are dependent upon the success of our sales and customer acquisition and retention strategies.
  • Our research and development efforts may not succeed in developing commercially successful products and technologies, which could adversely affect our business.
  • We expect to generate an increasing portion of our revenue internationally in the future and may become subject to various additional risks relating to our international activities, which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
  • If we are unable to attract, recruit, train, retain, motivate, and integrate key personnel, we may not achieve our goals.
  • We have chosen to engage a single supplier, TSMC, to supply and manufacture a key component of our products. If TSMC fails to fulfill its obligations under its existing contractual arrangements with us or does not perform satisfactorily, or if this relationship is terminated for other reasons, our ability to source our devices would be negatively and adversely affected.
The other 41 risks
  • We rely on a single contract manufacturer, Benchmark, to test, assemble, and supply our finished products. If Benchmark fails to fulfill its obligations under its existing contractual arrangements with us or does not perform satisfactorily, our ability to source our devices could be negatively and adversely affected.
  • We have and may continue to experience pricing pressures from contract suppliers or manufacturers on which we rely.
  • Any interruption in the operations of our manufacturing facilities, or our suppliers’ or customers’ facilities, may impair our ability to deliver products or provide services.
  • We rely on limited or sole suppliers for some of the materials and components used in our products that may not be able to supply such materials and components in sufficient quantities, on a timely basis, or at acceptable costs, and we may not be able to find replacements or immediately transition to alternative suppliers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and reputation.
  • Acquisitions, joint ventures, or other strategic transactions, including in connection with our Butterfly Embedded™ program, could disrupt our business, cause dilution to our stockholders, and otherwise harm our business.
  • If we are unable to continue the development of an adequate sales and marketing organization and/or if our direct sales organization is not successful, we may have difficulty achieving market awareness and selling our products in the future.
  • If we are unable to continue establishing and maintaining adequate sales and marketing capabilities, or unable to continue entering into and maintaining arrangements with third parties to sell and market our products, our business may be harmed.
  • We operate in highly competitive markets, competition may increase in the future, and our industry may be further disrupted.
  • Unfavorable global economic conditions could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
  • Changes in applicable tax laws and regulations could adversely affect our business.
  • Our ability to use net operating losses and certain other tax assets to offset future income may be subject to certain limitations.
  • We could be adversely affected by violations of the FCPA and other worldwide anti-bribery laws by us or our agents.
  • Risks Related to Government Regulation and Other Legal Compliance Matters
  • We are subject to extensive government regulation, which could restrict the development, marketing, sale, and distribution of our products and could cause us to incur significant costs.
  • If we, our contract manufacturers or our component suppliers are unable to manufacture our products in compliance with regulatory and quality requirements, the manufacturing and distribution of our devices could be interrupted, and our product sales and operating results could suffer.
  • Our current or future medical devices may be subject to product recalls even after receiving FDA clearance or approval. A recall of such products, either voluntarily or at the direction of the FDA, or the discovery of serious safety issues with such products, could have a significant adverse impact on us.
  • We may be subject to enforcement action if we engage in improper or off-label marketing or promotion of our medical devices, including fines, penalties, and injunctions.
  • In some instances in our advertising and promotion, we may make claims regarding our medical devices as compared to competing products, which may subject us to heightened regulatory scrutiny, enforcement risk, and litigation risks.
  • We are subject to federal, state, and foreign laws prohibiting “kickbacks” and false or fraudulent claims, and other fraud and abuse laws, transparency laws, and other health care laws and regulations, which, if violated, could subject us to substantial penalties. Additionally, any challenge to or investigation into our practices under these laws could cause adverse publicity and be costly to respond to, and thus could harm our business.
  • We are subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection, and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to our business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, or declines in customer growth or engagement, or otherwise harm our business.
  • Increased cybersecurity requirements, vulnerabilities, threats, and more sophisticated and targeted computer crimes pose a risk to our systems, networks, products, solutions, services, and data, as well as our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.
  • Issues relating to the responsible use of our technologies, including AI in our offerings, may result in reputational or financial harm and liability.
  • Broad-based domestic and international government initiatives to reduce spending, particularly those related to healthcare costs, may reduce reimbursement rates for medical procedures, which will reduce the cost-effectiveness of our products and services.
  • Healthcare industry cost-containment measures could result in reduced sales of our products and services.
  • Risks Related to Butterfly’s Intellectual Property
  • If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our ability to maintain any technological or competitive advantage over our competitors and potential competitors would be adversely impacted, and our business may be harmed.
  • Our wafer bonding technology for ultrasound applications is licensed to us by Stanford. Any loss of our rights to this technology could prevent us from selling our products.
  • We may need or may choose to obtain licenses from third parties to advance our research or allow commercialization of our current or future products, and we cannot provide any assurances that we would be able to obtain such licenses.
  • We out-license our intellectual property to third parties, and our licensees may not always act in our best interest. If these third parties fail to comply with their obligations under their respective licenses with us, if these licenses are terminated, or if disputes regarding these licenses arise, we could lose significant revenue or rights that are important to our business.
  • If we or any of our partners are sued for infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties, such litigation would be costly and time consuming, and an unfavorable outcome in any such litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business. We may be involved in lawsuits to protect or enforce our patents or the patents of our licensors, which could be expensive, time-consuming, and unsuccessful.
  • Changes in patent laws or patent jurisprudence could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.
  • If our trademarks and trade names are not adequately protected, then we may not be able to build name recognition in our markets of interest and our business may be adversely affected.
  • We may use third-party open source software components in future products, and failure to comply with the terms of the underlying open source software licenses could restrict our ability to sell such products.
  • We use third-party software that may cause errors or failures of our products that could lead to lost customers or harm to our reputation.
  • Risks Related to Our Securities and to Being a Public Company
  • If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, which could harm our operating results, our ability to operate our business, and investors’ views of us.
  • We are a smaller reporting company, and any decision on our part to comply only with reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to such companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors.
  • Because we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE rules, our stockholders may not have certain corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.
  • The dual class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting power with our founder, which will limit an investor’s ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.
  • Delaware law and provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make a takeover proposal more difficult.
  • Our certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings, and the federal district courts as the sole and exclusive forum for other types of actions and proceedings, in each case, that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain what such stockholders believe to be a favorable judicial forum for disputes with the Company or our directors, officers, or other employees.
  • Litigation Risks
  • We face the risk of product liability claims and may be subject to damages, fines, penalties, and injunctions, among other things.
  • We are currently subject to a securities class action lawsuit and stockholder derivative actions, and we have indemnification obligations to certain defendants party to a putative class action, the unfavorable outcomes of which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
  • General Risk Factors
  • The price of our common stock historically has been volatile, which may affect the price at which you could sell any shares of our common stock.

Legal proceedings

We are currently and may in the future be subject to legal proceedings, claims, and regulatory actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of any such matters, regardless of the merits, is inherently uncertain.
