Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks CPI Card Group Inc. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Mar 5, 2026: 40 risks under these headings, as written.5
- Risks Relating to our Business and Industry
- Risks associated with reduced levels of consumer and business spending, inflation-related challenges and the effects of an economic downturn could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- Our operating results are unpredictable and may vary significantly from quarter to quarter and annually and may differ significantly from our expectations.
- Failure to retain our existing customers or identify and attract new customers would have a material adverse effect on our business.
- We face competition that may result in a loss of our market share and/or a decline in our profitability.
- Our future success depends upon our ability to develop, introduce and commercialize new products and related services which can be a lengthy and complex process. New and developing technology solutions and products could make our existing technology solutions and products obsolete or irrelevant. We may be unable to commercialize new or improved products and related services we may develop on a timely basis or at all.
- System security risks, data protection breaches, and cyber-attacks could compromise our proprietary information, impair customer and vendor relationships, disrupt our internal operations, harm perception of our products and expose us to litigation and/or regulatory penalties, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and our reputation.
- A disruption or other failure in our supply chain could adversely affect our business and financial results.
- Changes in U.S. and global trade policy and the impact of tariffs have had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
- Interruptions in our operations, particularly in our IT systems, could have a material adverse effect on our business and reputation.
- We may experience software defects, which could harm our business and reputation and expose us to potential liability.
- Disruptions in production at one or more of our facilities may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and/or financial condition.
The other 29 risks
- Our business could suffer from problems in production quality, materials and process, which could reduce, delay or interrupt production of our products, resulting in adverse impacts to our business and financial results.
- Costs relating to product defects, and any related product liability and warranty claims may materially adversely affect our business.
- The failure to effectively recruit, retain and develop qualified personnel and implement effective succession processes could adversely affect our success and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- The covenants and restrictions contained in agreements governing our indebtedness may adversely affect our business and results of operations, may restrict our ability to grow and could make it difficult or impossible to timely make our debt service payments or refinance our debt when it comes due.
- If we are unable to generate or borrow sufficient cash to make payments on our indebtedness, our financial condition could be materially harmed. We may not be able to refinance our existing long-term debt if necessary, or we may only be able to do so at a higher interest rate or on other less favorable terms.
- We may not be able to successfully execute our acquisition strategy or integrate acquisitions or strategic investments successfully, or successfully enter into, maintain and leverage business relationships, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
- We may not realize the potential benefits from the acquisition of Arroweye because of difficulties related to integration, the achievement of synergies and other challenges.
- We may not be able to sell, exit or reconfigure businesses or facilities that we determine no longer are aligned with our strategy or that should be consolidated.
- We are considered an accelerated filer and are required to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and our inability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future could result in investors losing confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and negatively affect the market price of our common stock.
- Expectations of stakeholders relating to environmental, social and governance matters may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks as well as have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
- Damage to our reputation or brand image can adversely affect our business.
- We may be unable to adequately protect our trade secrets and intellectual property rights against misappropriation or infringement, which may have a material adverse effect on our business.
- We rely on licensing arrangements in production and other fields, and actions taken by any of our licensing partners could have a material adverse effect on our business.
- Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, which could lead to delays in innovation and abandonment of our strategic initiatives.
- We may become subject to additional tax collection obligations, claims for uncollected amounts, and assessments from unclaimed property audits, new U.S. tax legislation could expose us to additional liabilities and our income tax positions or unclaimed property practices may be challenged by relevant authorities, all of which could adversely affect our cash flows and financial results.
- Our long-lived assets represent a significant portion of our total assets, and we may never realize their full value.
- Current and prospective regulations, changes in our product offerings and customer contractual requirements addressing consumer privacy and data use and security could increase our costs of operations, increase the risk of regulatory enforcement, or claims, which could adversely affect our operations, results of operations and financial condition.
- Our failure to operate our business in accordance with the standards of the PCI Security Standards Council or other industry standards applicable to our customers, such as Payment Card Brands compliance standards, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
- Prolonged military action in foreign conflicts has impacted and may continue to have adverse effects on the global economy, and such effects could materially adversely affect our business, operations, operating results and financial condition.
- Conditions in the banking system and financial markets, including the failure of banks and financial institutions, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- Environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including climate change regulations, expose us to liability and any such liability may have a material adverse effect on our business.
- Risks Relating to Ownership of our Common Stock
- Certain stockholders own a significant percentage of our common stock, and such stockholders may influence major corporate decisions of the Company and our interests may conflict with the interests of other holders of our common stock.
- The concentration of ownership by our significant stockholders and the sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our common stock may adversely impact the market price and liquidity of our common stock.
- Conflicts of interest may arise because directors who are principals of or who were nominated by our significant stockholders serve on our Board of Directors.
- Securities analysts may publish unfavorable research or reports about our business or may not publish at all, which could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.
- Our business and operations could be negatively affected by stockholder activism and securities litigation.
- Certain provisions of our organizational documents and other contractual provisions may make it difficult for stockholders to change the composition of our Board of Directors and may discourage hostile takeover attempts that some of our stockholders may consider to be beneficial.
- General Risk Factors
- We are required to comply with complex laws and regulations in the United States and other countries and are exposed to business risks associated with our international business. Moreover, changes in such laws could occur at any time and could impact us in significantly negative ways that we are unable to predict or protect against.
- Our business and financial results may be materially adversely affected by various legal and regulatory proceedings.
Legal proceedings
