Moreover, the demand for our products and services from U.S. government agencies is generally driven by the level of discretionary government program funding. In 2025, our revenues with U.S. federal government agencies declined approximately $58 million year over year, primarily due to reductions in discretionary spending. Further significant reduction in federal government spending, the absence of an agreement on the federal government budget, a partial or full federal government shutdown or a change in budgetary priorities could reduce demand for our products and services, cancel or delay federal projects, result in the closure of federal facilities and significant personnel reductions and have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. As the current geopolitical environment remains unpredictable, we continue to monitor and evaluate the impact, both direct and indirect, of government actions that could adversely impact our business operations and financial performance.
