It also highlights the risks associated with customer concentration and the difficulty in predicting product demand - Global economic instability, geopolitical tensions, and inflation have led to supply chain disruptions, material shortages (especially micro-controller chips), increased costs, and shipping delays, impacting Varex's ability to deliver products and potentially leading to production halts[190](index=190&type=chunk)[191](index=191&type=chunk)[192](index=192&type=chunk) - Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly a strong U.S. Dollar, can create pricing pressure, affect product demand, and impact profitability in foreign markets[193](index=193&type=chunk) - Varex's dependence on a limited number of major OEM customers (one customer accounted for **20% of revenue**, top ten for **55%**) makes it vulnerable to order cancellations, delays, or reductions, which could materially affect operating results[197](index=197&type=chunk) [We sell our products and services to a limited number of OEM customers, many of which are also our competitors, and a reduction in or loss of business of one or more of these customers may materially reduce our sales.](index=42&type=section&id=We%20sell%20our%20products%20and%20services%20to%20a%20limited%20number%20of%20OEM%20customers,%20many%20of%20which%20are%20also%20our%20competitors,%20and%20a%20reduction%20in%20or%20loss%20of%20business%20of%20one%20or%20more%20of%20these%20customers%20may%20materially%20reduce%20our%20sales.) Varex's reliance on a small number of OEM customers, some of whom are also competitors, creates a significant risk. A reduction or loss of business from these major customers could materially decrease sales and adversely affect financial results, especially given the time it takes to replace lost business - One customer accounted for **20% of Varex's revenue** for the three months ended December 30, 2022, and the top ten customers accounted for approximately **55%**[197](index=197&type=chunk) - Many OEM customers also have in-house X-ray component manufacturing, posing a risk if they increase internal production or decrease purchases from Varex[201](index=201&type=chunk) - Cancellation, delay, or reduction of orders by major OEM customers could materially and adversely affect operating results due to the significant time required to replace lost business[197](index=197&type=chunk) [We may not be able to accurately predict the demand or delivery schedules for our products.](index=43&type=section&id=We%20may%20not%20be%20able%20to%20accurately%20predict%20the%20demand%20or%20delivery%20schedules%20for%20our%20products.) Varex faces challenges in accurately forecasting product demand and delivery schedules due to external factors like economic uncertainties, the COVID-19 pandemic, and customer-specific issues. Inaccurate predictions can lead to excess inventory, sales slowdowns, and adverse impacts on operating results - External factors such as economic uncertainties, the COVID-19 pandemic, natural disasters, and geopolitical tensions make it difficult to accurately predict product demand and delivery schedules[200](index=200&type=chunk) - Changes in customer purchasing forecasts, often on short notice, can lead to excess inventory and slowdowns in sales, materially affecting operating results[200](index=200&type=chunk) - Agreements with customers typically rely on forward-looking forecasts rather than firm commitments, and actual purchasing volumes can vary significantly[200](index=200&type=chunk) [We compete in highly competitive markets, and we may lose business to our customers or other companies with greater resources or with greater abilities to develop more effective technologies, or we could be forced to reduce our prices.](index=43&type=section&id=We%20compete%20in%20highly%20competitive%20markets,%20and%20we%20may%20lose%20business%20to%20our%20customers%20or%20other%20companies%20with%20greater%20resources%20or%20with%20greater%20abilities%20to%20develop%20more%20effective%20technologies,%20or%20we%20could%20be%20forced%20to%20reduce%20our%20prices.) Varex operates in highly competitive markets characterized by rapid technological evolution and pricing pressure.

Varex's success hinges on its ability to continually develop and introduce new products and enhancements in a rapidly changing technological market. Failure to anticipate customer needs, manage R&D costs, comply with regulatory approvals, or protect intellectual property could lead to loss of customers, reduced revenues, and adverse impacts on financial performance - Success depends on continually introducing new products at competitive costs and improving existing products with higher quality, lower costs, and increased features in a rapidly evolving market[205](index=205&type=chunk) - Failure to properly identify customer needs, manage R&D costs, or comply with quality assurance and regulatory processes can result in delays, increased expenses, and adverse impacts on financial performance[207](index=207&type=chunk) - New products may cannibalize sales of existing products or render them obsolete, and certain costs (e.g., installation, warranty) associated with new products can disproportionately affect gross and operating margins[206](index=206&type=chunk) [More than half of our revenue is generated from customers located outside the United States, and is subject to global, regional, and country-specific economic instability, shifting political environments, changing tax treatment, and other risks associated with international operations and sales that could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.](index=45&type=section&id=More%20than%20half%20of%20our%20revenue%20is%20generated%20from%20customers%20located%20outside%20the%20United%20States,%20and%20is%20subject%20to%20global,%20regional,%20and%20country-specific%20economic%20instability,%20shifting%20political%20environments,%20changing%20tax%20treatment,%20and%20other%20risks%20associated%20with%20international%20operations%20and%20sales%20that%20could%20materially%20and%20adversely%20affect%20our%20business%20and%20financial%20results.) Over 60% of Varex's revenue comes from international customers, exposing the company to significant risks including currency fluctuations (especially a strong U.S. Dollar), longer payment cycles, difficulties in legal enforcement, trade restrictions, political and economic instability, and challenges in protecting intellectual property in foreign countries. These factors can materially harm business and financial results - Revenues from customers outside the United States accounted for approximately **64%** and **70% of total revenues** for the three months ended December 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively[208](index=208&type=chunk) - International operations are subject to risks such as currency fluctuations (strong U.S. Dollar), longer payment cycles, difficulties in enforcing agreements, trade restrictions, political/economic instability, and challenges in protecting intellectual property[208](index=208&type=chunk) - Increased dependence on international sales makes Varex more vulnerable to these factors, potentially harming future results[209](index=209&type=chunk) [COVID-19 has adversely impacted our operations, cash flow, and financial position, and in the future we could continue to be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing economic disruptions.](index=45&type=section&id=COVID-19%20has%20adversely%20impacted%20our%20operations,%20cash%20flow,%20and%20financial%20position,%20and%20in%20the%20future%20we%20could%20continue%20to%20be%20adversely%20impacted%20by%20the%20COVID-19%20pandemic%20and%20continuing%20economic%20disruptions.) The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted Varex's operations, cash flow, and financial position, creating volatility and economic disruption. Ongoing outbreaks, local government lockdowns (especially in China), and a competitive labor market continue to pose risks to manufacturing, sales, service, and talent retention, potentially affecting future operating results - The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted Varex's operations, cash flow, and financial position, creating significant volatility and economic disruption[210](index=210&type=chunk) - New or continuing outbreaks, local government lockdowns (e.g., in China), and travel prohibitions could affect manufacturing, sales, service, and customer/supplier relationships[210](index=210&type=chunk) - The pandemic has contributed to a tightening and competitive labor market, increasing wages and voluntary attrition, making talent recruitment and retention more difficult[210](index=210&type=chunk)[211](index=211&type=chunk) [It has become more difficult to attract and retain employees, which has impacted, and is likely to continue to impact, our ability to develop and manufacture products and operate our business.](index=46&type=section&id=It%20has%20become%20more%20difficult%20to%20attract%20and%20retain%20employees,%20which%20has%20impacted,%20and%20is%20likely%20to%20continue%20to%20impact,%20our%20ability%20to%20develop%20and%20manufacture%20products%20and%20operate%20our%20business.) Varex faces increasing difficulty in attracting and retaining qualified employees, particularly in engineering, service, sales, and manufacturing, due to a competitive labor market and wage inflation. This challenge, exacerbated by the 'Great Resignation,' could hinder product development, manufacturing, and overall business operations - Varex's future success depends on its ability to retain, attract, expand, integrate, and train management and key personnel, including engineering, service, sales, marketing, and manufacturing staff[211](index=211&type=chunk) - Competition for qualified personnel has increased, leading to higher compensation-related costs and making recruitment and retention more difficult, especially in regions with low unemployment rates like Utah[211](index=211&type=chunk) - The 'Great Resignation' has intensified challenges in employee attraction and retention, and replacing key employees can be difficult, costly, and time-consuming[212](index=212&type=chunk) [We may face additional risks from the acquisition or development of new lines of business.](index=46&type=section&id=We%20may%20face%20additional%20risks%20from%20the%20acquisition%20or%20development%20of%20new%20lines%20of%20business.) Acquiring or developing new lines of business presents substantial risks for Varex, especially in undeveloped or unfamiliar markets. Challenges include gaining expertise, recruiting professionals, increased liability exposure, higher R&D costs, and managing new relationships. Failure to manage these risks could materially and adversely affect business and financial results - New lines of business involve substantial risks and uncertainties, particularly in undeveloped or unfamiliar markets, including developing expertise, recruiting professionals, and managing new relationships[213](index=213&type=chunk) - Risks include increased liability exposure, higher research and development expenditures, and potential failure to achieve integration timelines or profitability targets, as new products may have lower gross margins[213](index=213&type=chunk) - Demand for multi-purpose products in new and emerging industries may be negatively impacted by varying, inconsistent, and rapidly changing laws, regulations, and consumer perceptions[214](index=214&type=chunk) [We may be unable to complete future acquisitions or realize expected benefits from acquisitions of or investments in new businesses, products, or technologies, which could harm our business.](index=46&type=section&id=We%20may%20be%20unable%20to%20complete%20future%20acquisitions%20or%20realize%20expected%20benefits%20from%20acquisitions%20of%20or%20investments%20in%20new%20businesses,%20products,%20or%20technologies,%20which%20could%20harm%20our%20business.) Varex's growth strategy includes acquisitions, but identifying suitable candidates, completing transactions, and successfully integrating acquired entities are challenging. Acquisitions can divert management resources, incur significant costs, and may not yield expected synergies or returns, potentially leading to impairment losses or dilutive equity issuances - Identifying suitable acquisition candidates is difficult, time-consuming, and costly, and Varex may fail to complete or finance identified acquisitions, impairing growth[216](index=216&type=chunk) - Integrating acquisitions can be expensive, time-consuming, and strain resources, potentially increasing R&D expenses, litigation risk, and difficulty retaining employees or customers of acquired companies[217](index=217&type=chunk) - Failure to achieve anticipated growth from an acquisition could lead to impairment losses on assets and goodwill, adversely affecting financial results[219](index=219&type=chunk) - Investments in joint ventures and privately-held companies (e.g., dpiX LLC, VEC Imaging GmbH & Co. KG) carry risks of capital loss and may not yield expected returns[220](index=220&type=chunk) [Warranty claims may materially and adversely affect our business.](index=47&type=section&id=Warranty%20claims%20may%20materially%20and%20adversely%20affect%20our%20business.) An increase in warranty claims due to product quality issues or failures could damage Varex's market reputation, reduce sales, and necessitate costly repairs or remedial measures. If actual claims exceed estimates, cost of sales could increase, materially affecting financial condition and profitability - An increase in warranty claims due to product quality issues or failures could damage market reputation, cause sales to decline, or require costly repairs/remedial measures[221](index=221&type=chunk) - If actual warranty claims are greater than estimated, cost of sales could increase, materially and adversely affecting financial condition[221](index=221&type=chunk) - A shift in product mix towards categories with higher warranty claims could lead to an overall increase in claims[221](index=221&type=chunk) [Product defects or misuse may result in material product liability or professional errors and omissions claims, litigation, investigation by regulatory authorities, or product recalls that could harm our future revenues and require us to pay material uninsured claims.](index=48&type=section&id=Product%20defects%20or%20misuse%20may%20result%20in%20material%20product%20liability%20or%20professional%20errors%20and%20omissions%20claims,%20litigation,%20investigation%20by%20regulatory%20authorities,%20or%20product%20recalls%20that%20could%20harm%20our%20future%20revenues%20and%20require%20us%20to%20pay%20material%20uninsured%20claims.) Varex faces significant product liability risks due to its components being used in medical devices and radiation-emitting systems. Defects or misus
