Convertible debt and related securities may cause significant dilution and impose restrictive covenants, limiting financial flexibility. Market conditions such as economic downturns or shifts in consumer preferences could impact sales and inventory turnover. Dependence on third-party lenders and partners introduces execution risks [S2].
