Company may be unable to compete against such competition in key markets for smart mirrors, especially as Company is a new entrant in this very competitive, growing product market and has not established brand recognition and consumer loyalty. Additional information that could lead to material changes in Company’s performance and new product lines is contained in Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
