Worauf es steht, und was es umwerfen könnte
Wovon das Geschäft abhängt
- 1Revenue depends on customers awarding new study contracts and continuing, expanding or renewing existing work.
- 2The business depends on research and development spending by pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical-device companies; biotechnology customers may depend on outside funding to pay for research.
- 3Clinical studies depend on finding suitable participants and investigators willing to take part.
- 4Service delivery depends on recruiting and retaining employees with clinical, scientific and technical skills.
- 5Some services rely on third-party data, technology, products and licenses.
Was schiefgehen könnte
- 1Delays, cancellations or reductions in large contracts, or a failure to win new work, could reduce revenue and disrupt operations.
- 2A limited number of customers account for a meaningful part of the business; losing a major customer or having a biotechnology customer unable to pay could affect results.
- 3ICON identified material weaknesses in financial reporting controls for 2025 after a restatement; further control or reporting problems could create costs and affect financing or lender arrangements.
