Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks CQENS Technologies Inc. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Apr 15, 2026: 14 risks under these headings, as written.12
- FINANCIAL RISKS
- We have a history of losses and we do not generate any revenues.
- Our auditors have raised substantial doubts in our ability to continue as a going concern.
- We will require additional capital to fund our operations and although we have been successful raising capital to date, we cannot guarantee this will continue. Should we be unsuccessful in raising capital, we could be forced to cease operations.
- BUSINESS RISKS
- We have a limited operating history and have not launched any products.
- There are no assurances the Barker Group/Firebird Manufacturing joint venture will be finalized.
- In addition to management’s full-time or near full-time commitment to the Company, certain of our officers and directors have other interests and obligations outside of CQENS and may have conflicts of interest.
- We rely on a third-party manufacturer of our production line equipment for our consumables and our joint venture partners for production of our devices and consumables.
- Certain of our proposed products will be subject to FDA oversight.
- We have not marketed, sold or distributed products and have limited capacity and resources at this time.
- We may not be successful in establishing and maintaining a strategic partnership, which could adversely affect our ability to commercialize our proposed products.
The other 4 risks
- To the extent we elect to enter into licensing or collaboration agreements to partner our candidate products, our dependence on such relationships may adversely affect our business.
- Tariffs may adversely affect our business.
- RISK RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
- There is no public market for our common stock. In the event we establish a market for our common stock, it is likely that the market for that common stock will be limited.
- Delaware law contains anti-takeover provisions that could deter takeover attempts that could be beneficial to our stockholders.
Legal proceedings
We are not a party to any pending or threatened litigation.
