This facility is leased from ELR Associates, LLC, a fully consolidated variable interest entity of Syntec Optics Holdings Inc. The lease for this building was entered into on July 23, 2015 for a 10 year period and has provisions for two extensions of 5 years each. The Company has exercised the first extension (to July 2030), and we have the option to extend for an additional five-year term.

Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks SYNTEC OPTICS HOLDINGS, INC. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Mar 31, 2026: 35 risks under these headings, as written.3

  • Risks Related to Cybersecurity, Technology, Proprietary Techniques and Intellectual Property
  • We rely heavily upon proprietary techniques and intellectual property portfolio. If we are unable to protect our proprietary and intellectual property rights, our business and competitive position would be harmed.
  • Our website, systems, and the data we maintain may be subject to intentional disruption, security incidents, or alleged violations of laws, regulations, or other obligations relating to data handling that could result in liability and adversely impact our reputation and future sales.
  • Cyberattacks and security vulnerabilities could lead to reduced revenue, increased costs, liability claims, or harm to our reputation or competitive position.
  • We may need to defend ourselves against proprietary techniques and intellectual property infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and could cause us to incur substantial costs.
  • Our current and future patent applications may not result in issued patents or our patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours.
  • Risks Related to Syntec Optics Being a Public Company
  • The loss of one or more members of our senior management team, other key personnel or our failure to attract additional qualified personnel may adversely affect our business and our ability to achieve our anticipated level of growth.
  • Our operating and financial results forecast relies in large part upon assumptions and analyses developed by us. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating results may be materially different from our forecasted results.
  • If we fail to manage our growth effectively, we may be unable to execute our business plan, maintain high levels of customer service, or adequately address competitive challenges.
  • We may expand our business through acquisitions in the future, and any future acquisition may not be accretive and may negatively affect our business.
  • We have significant customer concentration, with a limited number of customers accounting for a substantial portion of our revenues. Failure to attract, grow and retain a diverse and balanced customer base could harm our business and operating results.
The other 24 risks
  • Our operations are subject to a variety of environmental, health and safety rules that can bring scrutiny from regulatory agencies and increase our costs.
  • We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to administrative, civil and criminal fines and penalties, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation.
  • From time to time, we may be involved in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes, which could have an adverse impact on our profitability and consolidated financial position.
  • We must perform additional services and we are subject to financial reporting and other requirements for which our accounting and other management systems and resources may not be adequate.
  • Tariffs and trade restrictions could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
  • Risks Related to Syntec Optics’ Financial Position and Capital Requirements
  • Our business is capital intensive, and we may not be able to raise additional capital on attractive terms, if at all. Any further indebtedness we incur may limit our operational flexibility in the future.
  • Restrictions imposed by our outstanding indebtedness and any future indebtedness may limit our ability to operate our business and to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in acquisitions or other business activities necessary to achieve growth.
  • As a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq corporate governance rules, Syntec Optics is permitted to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards applicable to domestic U.S. companies or rely on exemptions that are available to a “controlled company”; these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if Syntec Optics complied fully with Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards.
  • We may issue additional shares of Syntec common stock or other equity securities without your approval, which would dilute your ownership interests and may depress the market price of your shares.
  • We may redeem unexpired public warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to warrant holders, thereby making their public warrants worthless.
  • Syntec Optics will have a classified board of directors
  • Unanticipated changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
  • Risks Related to Ownership of Syntec Optics’ Common Stock
  • If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about Syntec Optics, or publish negative reports, Syntec Optics’ stock price and trading volume could decline.
  • An active trading market for Syntec Optics’ securities may not be available on a consistent basis to provide stockholders with adequate liquidity.
  • Warrants will become exercisable for Syntec Optics’ common stock, which would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to Syntec Optics’ stockholders.
  • Syntec Optics’ operating results may fluctuate significantly, which makes its future operating results difficult to predict and could cause its operating results to fall below expectations or any guidance it may provide.
  • Changes in laws, regulations or rules, or a failure to comply with any laws, regulations or rules, may adversely affect Syntec Optics’ business, investments and results of operations.
  • The second amended and restated certificate of incorporation will designate specific courts as the exclusive forum for substantially all stockholder litigation matters, which could limit the ability of Syntec Optics’ stockholders to obtain a favorable forum for disputes with Syntec Optics or its directors, officers or employees.
  • The second amended and restated certificate of incorporation could discourage another company from acquiring Syntec Optics and may prevent attempts by its stockholders to replace or remove its management.
  • Syntec Optics will be an emerging growth company and any decision to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make Syntec Optics’ common stock less attractive to investors.
  • If Syntec Optics fails to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, Syntec Optics’ ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired, which may adversely affect investor confidence in Syntec Optics and, as a result, the market price of Syntec Optics common stock.
  • If we fail to maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements, our securities could be delisted.
  • Insiders will have substantial influence over Syntec Optics, which could limit your ability to affect the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.
  • Because there are no current plans to pay cash dividends on the Syntec Optics common stock for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your Syntec Optics common stock at a price greater than what you paid for it.

Legal proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings. We are not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
