Additional risks and uncertainties relating to our business that are not currently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may individually or cumulatively also have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or prospects. Risks relating to our business and operations Our business model relies on a three-sided marketplace and we must continue to grow and retain consumers, partners and riders to develop our business and achieve profitability. Our primary business is to generate demand and bring food to our consumers from restaurants, grocery stores and other food suppliers (our “partners”) delivered by riders. Unless we offer a compelling proposition to each side of our three-sided marketplace, we cannot achieve the density required to achieve economies of scale, which drives efficiency and therefore profitability. Consumers. Consumers use our platform to conveniently order and receive the food they want at an affordable price. They may leave our platform or use it more sparingly if they do not feel they are receiving value or are unsatisfied with the price, selection or quality of food or the service we offer. If we do not provide a compelling consumer proposition, or if we do not promote and sustain our brand and the profile of our platform through marketing and communications, we may fail to retain our consumers or acquire new consumers. If we do not have a sufficient number of consumers placing orders through our platform, we will be unable to attract and retain restaurant, grocery and other partners (because we will not generate sufficient sales) or riders (because they will not have the opportunity to earn enough). This will lead to further consumer attrition because food selection and quality of service will deteriorate. Partners. Restaurant, grocery and other partners use our service to increase their volume of sales via new channels. If they are unhappy with, amongst other things, the volume of sales and margins they can generate via our platform, the commission rates they pay us, being associated with our brand or with the different B2B tools and capabilities we offer (or fail to offer), they may shift to one or more competitor platforms, either more frequently or exclusively. If this happens, the selection of partners on our platform will be reduced, which will affect product choice. We may also lose access to the most popular partners (including large, quick-service restaurant chains as well as national brands and popular independent brands). If our partner selection is materially reduced, the virtuous circle of our three-sided marketplace, which provides mutual benefits to our consumers, partners, and riders, would be disrupted and we would be unable to acquire new consumers or retain existing consumers and any reduced consumer demand would, in turn, have a negative impact on our rider supply. A reduced rider supply and fewer consumers would, in turn, make us a less attractive platform for new and existing partners.
