Item 1A Risk Factors
Our operations are subject to many risks that could adversely affect our future financial condition and performance, including the risk factors that are described in the 2024 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed, except for the following:
Our business strategy includes expected growth and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected if we fail to grow or fail to manage our growth effectively.
Our business strategy includes expected growth in loans, deposits and fee income. Our ability to successfully grow will depend on a variety of factors, including our ability to hire or retain a sufficient number of qualified employees, the continued availability of desirable business opportunities, competition from other financial institutions and our ability to manage our growth. Growth opportunities may not be available to us or we may not be able to manage our growth successfully. If we do not manage our growth effectively, our financial condition and operating results could be negatively affected.
Our future success will depend on the ability of our officers and key employees to achieve operational scalability through the implementation and improvement of our financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures and manage a growing number of customer relationships. We may not implement improvements to our management information and control systems in an efficient or timely manner and may discover deficiencies in existing systems and controls. Consequently, any future growth may place a strain on our administrative and operational infrastructure. Any such strain could increase our costs, reduce or eliminate our profitability and reduce the trading price of our common stock.
