The Company intends to take the steps necessary to meet the deadlines for the Delayed Reports and regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards by the Compliance Date.

Many important factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this report, including but not limited to, the Company’s plan to seek strategic alternatives for its U.S. business, autonomous driving being an emerging technology, the development of the Company’s technologies and products, the Company’s limited operating history in a new market, the regulations governing autonomous vehicles, changes in the Company’s board of directors and senior management, the Company’s dependence on its senior management team, reliance on third-party suppliers, potential product liability or warranty claims, the protection of the Company’s intellectual property, securities class action litigation, the Company’s ability to meet the deadlines for the Delayed Reports and regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, and government or regulatory policies, inquiries and actions. Moreover, the Company operates in a competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks may emerge from time to time. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.
You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022, and the Company’s other filings with the SEC.
