Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks CYNGN Inc. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Mar 27, 2026: 39 risks under these headings, as written.6

  • Risks Related to Our Technology, Business, and Industry
  • Autonomous driving is an emerging technology and involves significant risks and uncertainties.
  • We have a limited operating history in a new market and face significant challenges as our industry is rapidly evolving.
  • Our business model has yet to be tested and any failure to commercialize our strategic plans would have an adverse effect on our operating results and business.
  • We operate in a highly competitive market and will face competition from both established competitors and new market entrants.
  • Business collaboration with third parties is subject to risks and these relationships may not lead to significant revenue.
  • Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Need for Additional Capital
  • Losses for the foreseeable future.
  • We have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to forecast our future results of operations.
  • We expect fluctuations in our financial results making it difficult to project future results.
  • We may need to raise additional funds and these funds may not be available to us on attractive terms when we need them, or at all.
  • We have incurred significant losses and continue to manage our cash resources to support our ongoing operations.
The other 29 risks
  • We may be subject to risks associated with potential future acquisitions.
  • Risks Related to Our Business Operations
  • Our success depends largely on the continued services of our senior management team, technical engineers, and certain key employees.
  • If we fail to manage our growth effectively, we may be unable to execute our business plan, maintain high levels of service, or adequately address competitive challenges.
  • We may be subject to product liability or warranty claims that could result in significant direct or indirect costs, including reputational harm, increased insurance premiums or the need to self-insure, which could adversely affect our business and operating results.
  • If our autonomous driving software fails to perform as expected our ability to market, sell or lease our autonomous driving software could be harmed.
  • If we are unable to establish and maintain confidence in our long-term business prospects among users, securities and industry analysts, and within our industries, or are subject to negative publicity, then our financial condition, operating results, business prospects, and access to capital may suffer materially.
  • Natural disasters, outbreaks of infectious diseases, terrorist attacks, wars and threats of war may negatively impact our operations, revenue, costs, and stock price.
  • International trade policies, including tariffs, sanctions and trade barriers, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
  • We have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and our inability to remediate this weakness or otherwise implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, or the inability of our independent registered public accounting firm to provide an unqualified report thereon, could have a material adverse effect on us.
  • Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property, Information Technology and Data Privacy
  • We may become subject to litigation brought by third parties claiming infringement, misappropriation or other violation by us of their intellectual property rights.
  • Our business may be adversely affected if we are unable to adequately establish, maintain, protect, and enforce our intellectual property and proprietary rights or prevent third parties from making unauthorized use of our technology and other intellectual property rights.
  • Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.
  • Our patent applications may not issue as patents, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours.
  • We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights throughout the world.
  • In addition to patented technology, we rely on our unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, processes, and know-how.
  • We utilize open-source software, which may pose particular risks to our proprietary software, technologies, products, and services in a manner that could harm our business.
  • Unauthorized control or manipulation of systems in autonomous industrial vehicles may cause them to operate improperly or not at all, or compromise their safety and data security, which could result in loss of confidence in us and our products, cancellation of contracts with future OEM or supplier partners.
  • Our information technology systems or data, or those of our service providers or customers or users could be subject to cyber-attacks or other security incidents, which could result in data breaches, intellectual property theft, claims, litigation, regulatory investigations, significant liability, reputational damage and other adverse consequences.
  • The costs to comply with, or our actual or perceived failure to comply with, changing U.S. and foreign laws related to data privacy, security and protection, could adversely affect our financial condition, operating results, and our reputation.
  • Risks Related to our Common Stock
  • There is a limited market for our common stock that may make it more difficult to dispose of your stock.
  • Future sales of our common stock in the public market could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
  • Our stock price may be volatile, and the value of our common stock may decline.
  • Future securities issuances could result in significant dilution to our stockholders and impair the market price of our common stock.
  • We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital, and our issuance of additional capital stock in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, our equity incentive plans or otherwise will dilute all other stockholders.
  • We do not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future and, as a result, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our common stock.
  • We are an “emerging growth company,” and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
  • Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents may discourage our acquisition by a third party, which could limit our stockholders’ opportunity to sell their shares, at a premium.
  • Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and federal court within the State of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that our stockholders may initiate, which could limit a stockholder’s ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.
  • General Risk Factors
  • The restatement of our previously issued financial statements for the Affected Periods has resulted in unanticipated costs, stockholder litigation and regulatory actions, and may adversely affect investor confidence, our stock price, our ability to raise capital in the future and our reputation.

Legal proceedings

We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is our property the subject of a pending legal proceeding, that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to the financial condition of our business. None of our directors, officers or affiliates are involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or have a material interest adverse to our business.
