Technology Obsolescence Risk
Technological advancements are cited as a factor that could materially differ actual results from projections if the company fails to adapt.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Lower counterparty risk noted due to reputation of private and government clients in defense and mining, though government contracts involve procedural payment delays.
