Conclusion
Investors who have invested into this IPO can consider ‘Exiting’ from their position at the price of $15.10 as on February 09, 2022, given:
Higher dependency on limited customers: A considerable amount of the company's revenue is dependent on a small number of customers. Any loss of, or significant drop in sales to, one or more of its considerable customers could have a detrimental impact on its top line and operating results.
Short term purchase agreements: The company does not have any long-term purchasing commitments from its clients. In the event of cancellation or amendment of the purchase orders, the company's operating results may suffer.
Intense competition: The company faces tough competition and anticipates that competition will rise in the future. If it fails to compete effectively, it could adversely impact its business and operating results.
