The Company is also subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in the industry, including rapid technological change, regulatory approval of products, uncertainty of market acceptance of products, competition from substitute products and larger companies, the need to obtain additional financing, compliance with government regulations, protection of proprietary technology, dependence on third parties, product liability and dependence on key individuals.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; WHITE-SPACE: normal; WORD-SPACING: 0px; TEXT-TRANSFORM: none; FONT-WEIGHT: normal; COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); FONT-STYLE: normal; ORPHANS: 2; WIDOWS: 2; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; LETTER-SPACING: normal; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal"> On February&#xA0;1, 2017, the Company announced that its board of directors had initiated a review of strategic alternatives that could result in changes to the Company&#x2019;s business strategy and future operations.

Consummation of the Dar&#xE9; Transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among other things, approval by the Company&#x2019;s stockholders.

As of March&#xA0;31, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $12.0&#xA0;million.
