Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings for which we have insurance coverage. As of the date hereof, we are not party to any legal proceedings that we currently believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced that infections of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) had become pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the U.S. President announced a National Emergency relating to the disease. There has been continued widespread infection in the United States and abroad, as COVID-19 has had, and continues to have, a significant impact around the world, prompting governments and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Such measures have included restrictions on travel and business operations, temporary and permanent closures of businesses, hybrid operations of businesses and for workers, and quarantine and shelter-in-place orders. Some businesses have imposed vaccine mandates and many are experiencing labor shortages. These factors have also impacted the global supply chain, leading to significant delays and shortages. These measures, while intended to protect human life, have had serious adverse impacts on domestic and foreign economies. The severity and duration of such impacts are uncertain as new variants of the COVID-19 virus emerge and a resulting surge in diagnosed cases may be seen. The sweeping nature of the coronavirus pandemic makes it difficult to predict how the Company’s business and operations will be affected in the longer run. The COVID-19 pandemic has materially affected our revenue and results of operations for 2020, 2021, and the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decreases in our revenue are primarily attributable to the effects of the global pandemic on our channel partners and customers as they continue to evaluate behavioral changes in how and when employees choose to work from traditional office environments. The Company’s results reflect the challenges due to long and unpredictable sales cycles, delays in customer retrofit budgets, project starts, and supply delayed orders in our distribution channels as a direct result of customer implementation schedules shifting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic in particular has, and may continue to have, a significant economic and business impact on our Company. During 2020, 2021, and the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we have seen a continuing weakness in revenue as our customers across all sectors delayed decision making on diverse elements of communication and collaboration technologies, in reaction to the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically related to how, when, and where employees work. We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, suppliers and logistics providers, and to evaluate governmental actions being taken to curtail and respond to the spread of the virus. The significance and duration of the ongoing impact on us is still uncertain. Material adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on market drivers, our customers, suppliers or logistics providers could significantly impact our operating results. We will continue to actively follow, assess and analyze the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and adjust our organizational structure, strategies, plans and processes to respond. Because the situation continues to evolve, we cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate impact to our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position that the COVID-19 pandemic may have. Continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions in response thereto could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and could significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.
