The company discusses the ongoing, but so far manageable, impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its supply chain and sales channels.

Foreign currency and inflation risks are considered not material - The company's main market risk is interest rate risk associated with its 2017 senior secured revolving credit facility. A **100 basis point** change in interest rates would affect annual interest expense by approximately **$1.1 million** as of September 30, 2020[268](index=268&type=chunk) - Exposure to foreign currency exchange risk and inflation risk is considered not material to the business, as substantially all revenue and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars[269](index=269&type=chunk)[270](index=270&type=chunk) [Item 4.

Risk Factors](index=55&type=section&id=Item%201A.%20Risk%20Factors) The company identifies numerous risks, with significant emphasis on the potential negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business, supply chain, and demand. Other key risks include intense competition from large technology and service providers; reliance on a network of service provider partners for sales and significant customer concentration with partners like ADT; potential liability from security solution failures, cyber-attacks, and data breaches; and the risk of technological obsolescence, such as the upcoming shutdown of 3G/CDMA networks which will require subscriber upgrades - The COVID-19 pandemic poses a significant risk, potentially disrupting the hardware supply chain, restricting service providers' ability to meet with customers, and reducing consumer and business spending, which could lower future SaaS and license revenue growth[289](index=289&type=chunk)[290](index=290&type=chunk) - The company faces intense competition from technology platform providers, large cable and broadband companies (AT&T, Comcast), and providers of point products (Google's Nest, Amazon's Ring), many of whom have greater resources[322](index=322&type=chunk)[325](index=325&type=chunk)[326](index=326&type=chunk) - A substantial portion of revenue comes from a limited number of service provider partners.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds](index=81&type=section&id=Item%202.%20Unregistered%20Sales%20of%20Equity%20Securities%20and%20Use%20of%20Proceeds) This section details the company's stock repurchase program, which was authorized by the board on November 29, 2018, for up to **$75.0 million** of common stock.
