Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements include but are not limited to: inflationary  conditions and adverse economic conditions; our history of operating losses and need to obtain additional financing; the growth and profitability of our  product sales; our ability to maintain and grow sales, marketing and distribution capabilities; changing consumer perceptions of our products; our reliance  on a single or limited number of third-party suppliers; risks of conducting business in China; including unanticipated developments in and risks related to the  Company’s ability to secure adequate quantities of pharmaceutical-grade Niagen in a timely manner; the Company’s ability to obtain appropriate contracts  and arrangements with U.S. FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities required to compound and distribute pharmaceutical-grade Niagen to clinics; the  Company’s ability to remain on the U.S. FDA Bulk Drug Substances Nominated for Use in Compounding Under Section 503B of the Federal Food, Drug, and  Cosmetic Act Category 1 list; the Company’s ability to maintain and enforce the Company’s existing intellectual property and obtain new patents; whether  the potential benefits of NRC can be further supported; further research and development and the results of clinical trials possibly being unsuccessful or  insufficient to meet applicable regulatory standards or warrant continued development; the ability to enroll sufficient numbers of subjects in clinical trials;  determinations made by the FDA and other governmental authorities; and the risks and uncertainties associated with our business and financial condition  in general.
