  • Business, financial results and prospects would be harmed by any decline in new customers and hosts, renewals or upgrades.
  • There is continued uncertainty regarding the extent and duration of the impact of COVID-19 and the responses of government and private industry thereto, as well as the impact of COVID-19 on the overall economic environment.
