Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business.
Added
While our loan agreement currently provides for a fallback from LIBOR to the U.S. prime rate, it is possible that we may amend our loan agreement to provide for a methodology to effect a transition from LIBOR to a new benchmark rate.
Added
It is not possible to predict the effect or timing of any establishment of a successor benchmark rate or its effect on our loan agreement or our business generally. The transition from LIBOR could result in our interest costs increasing and our access to capital could change, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.
Added
Inflation Risk We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations to date. For example, our subscription contracts often contain pricing terms that are tied to the Consumer Price Index, and our pricing policy for renewals not tied to CPI is designed to approximate changes in CPI.
Added
If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressure, we may not be able to fully offset these higher costs with price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 72
