12 Retech's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
We may see increased competition in our markets. On the technology side of our business many players are entering the market place including Hitachi, IBM, and others. While we believe that our solutions are better due to our experience as retailers our competitors are entrenched and very well-funded. The competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements and devote greater resources to develop, promote and sell their products or services. In addition, increased competition could result in reduced fees, reduced margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business. We cannot guarantee that we can compete successfully against current or future competitors, many of which have substantially more capital, existing brand recognition, resources and access to additional financing. All these competitive pressures may result in increased marketing costs, or loss of market share or otherwise may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
