  • ChargePoint’s potential profitability is particularly dependent upon the continued adoption of EVs by consumers and fleet operators and the widespread adoption of electric fleets and other electric transportation modalities, each of which are still in the early stages of widespread adoption and may not occur with the volume and timing that ChargePoint expects.
  • For instance, the North American EV market has recently suffered a substantial decline in the sale of new EVs since the termination of the $7,500 U.S. federal tax credit in September 2025, resulting in quarterly declines of new EVs sold as compared to the same quarters in the prior year.
  • Any prolonged decrease in demand for new EVs or networked charging systems (“Networked Charging Systems”), or any delays in discretionary purchases of EV infrastructure, such as charging stations, by commercial, fleet or residential consumers may result in slowing growth or decreased revenue for ChargePoint which may adversely affect its gross margins and could materially adversely affect ChargePoint’s business and results of operations.
  • In particular, ChargePoint has limited experience operating its business at its current scale under economic conditions characterized by high inflation, imposition of domestic and foreign tariffs, or in recessionary or uncertain economic environments.
  • ChargePoint’s management team may not successfully implement its business strategy or be able to Table of Content continue improving ChargePoint’s operating results.
  • Implementation of ChargePoint’s business strategy may be impacted by factors outside of its control, including competition, national and international automotive industry trends, component price fluctuations, industry, legal and regulatory changes or developments and general economic and political conditions.
  • There are other means for charging EVs, which could affect the level of demand for onsite charging capabilities at businesses.
  • Finally, many EV charging manufacturers, including ChargePoint, are offering home charging equipment, which could reduce demand for commercial charging capabilities of potential customers and reduce the demand for commercial charging capabilities if EV owners find charging at home to be sufficient.
  • If ChargePoint fails to adapt to changing market conditions or compete successfully with existing EV charging station providers or new competitors, its growth and revenue will be limited which would adversely affect its business and results of operations.
  • ChargePoint’s business, operating efficiency and competitive position may be adversely affected if it does not successfully identify, develop, integrate and deploy artificial intelligence and other advanced automation technologies in a timely, effective and compliant manner.
  • The EV charging industry, energy infrastructure markets and enterprise software ecosystems in which ChargePoint operates are experiencing rapid technological change, including increased adoption of artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning, advanced analytics and automation across product development, network operations, customer support, billing, fraud detection, cybersecurity, manufacturing, logistics and other business processes.
  • To remain competitive and operate efficiently at scale, ChargePoint may need to incorporate such technologies into its products, services and internal systems.
  • Failure to do so could place ChargePoint at a competitive disadvantage, reduce operating efficiency, increase costs, limit the functionality or performance of its solutions, or impair its ability to meet customer, regulatory or partner expectations.
  • ChargePoint has implemented, and intends to implement in the future, initiatives to deploy AI technologies, agentic AI solutions and AI-enabled capabilities in its ChargePoint Platform, eMSP driver application, customer support solutions and in internal enterprise systems.
  • However, successfully adopting and implementing AI technologies involves significant operational, technical, financial and organizational challenges, including assessing appropriate use cases; ensuring data quality, availability and governance; integrating Table of Content AI‑enabled capabilities into legacy systems and complex workflows; managing dependencies on third‑party technology providers; recruiting and retaining specialized personnel; and establishing appropriate oversight, controls and risk management processes.
  • ChargePoint may incur substantial costs and devote significant management attention to these efforts, and AI‑related initiatives may not be completed on schedule, operate as intended or deliver anticipated benefits.
  • In addition, evolving cybersecurity, data privacy, regulatory and stakeholder requirements may constrain or delay deployment or require costly modifications.
  • If ChargePoint is unable to successfully implement AI‑enabled capabilities while competitors or partners do so more effectively, it may experience reduced demand for its solutions, pricing pressure, loss of market share, higher operating costs, reduced margins or slower growth, any of which could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition.
  • ChargePoint derives a substantial portion of its overall revenue from the sale of its Networked Charging Systems.
  • For example, increased interest rates, an overall slowdown in economic activity, a recession or the possibility of a recession in the United States or Europe, elimination of government mandates and incentive programs, and increased tariffs, especially those targeted at the automotive industry may decrease the overall demand for EVs or EV infrastructure such as ChargePoint’s Networked Charging Systems.
  • Any prolonged decrease in demand for new EVs or Networked Charging Systems, or any delays in discretionary purchases of EV infrastructure, such as charging stations, by commercial, fleet or residential consumers may result in slowing growth or decreased revenue for ChargePoint which may adversely affect its gross margins and could materially adversely affect ChargePoint’s business and results of operations.
  • In recent quarters, ChargePoint has maintained elevated levels of inventory, and ChargePoint is also preparing for the introduction of its next generation AC and DC Networked Charging System models, which increases the complexity of inventory management and heightens the risk that certain existing products or components may become excess, obsolete, or subject to inventory write‑downs.
  • The introduction of new AC and DC products may further increase these risks, as demand for legacy products may decline more rapidly than anticipated, channel partners or customers may delay purchases in anticipation of newer offerings, or certain components or finished goods may not be usable across product generations.
  • ChargePoint has in the past experienced fluctuating demand for certain product lines which led to excess inventory that caused ChargePoint to write down, sell at prices lower than expected or discard such inventory and similar outcomes could occur in the future.
  • Table of Content ChargePoint relies on a third-party channel partner network of distributors and resellers to generate a substantial amount of its revenue and failure on the part of ChargePoint to continue to develop and expand this network may have an adverse impact on its business and prospects for growth.
  • In the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, ChargePoint derived a majority of its billings from products and subscriptions sold through channel partners.
  • Further, in May 2025, ChargePoint announced a strategic partner relationship with Eaton Corporation (“Eaton”), an industry leading power management company, to facilitate sales and distribution of ChargePoint’s products and services through Eaton’s channel network, as well as collaborate on new product development to optimize value to end users.
  • The utilization of the Eaton’s channel network may result in higher concentration of a material amount of channel sales through Eaton’s network, with ChargePoint continuing to maintain relationships with channel distributors, including in training and sales support.
  • If ChargePoint fails to execute or perform its obligations under the strategic relationship or Eaton fails to meet its sales targets, execute marketing strategies, or successfully execute sales processes, ChargePoint’s reputation, customer relationships, revenue and financial performance could be adversely affected.
  • If ChargePoint’s channel partners choose to place greater emphasis on products of their own or those offered by ChargePoint’s competitors or as a result of an acquisition, competitive factors, ChargePoint’s strategic channel partnership, or for other reasons do not continue to market and sell ChargePoint’s solutions in an effective manner or at all, ChargePoint’s ability to grow its business and sell its products may be adversely affected.
  • ChargePoint must expend considerable time, effort and cost to train and support its channel partners’ sales forces and there is no guarantee that such efforts will be successful or result in an increase of sales of ChargePoint products or an increase in its revenues.

  • ChargePoint may not be able to recruit, hire and retain a sufficient number of sales personnel, which may adversely affect its ability to expand its sales Table of Content capabilities.
  • The United States, the European Union (“EU”), and the United Kingdom have recently experienced historically high levels of inflation.
  • In response to recent high levels of inflation and recession fears, the U.S.
  • Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, and the Bank of England have in the recent past raised and have indicated they may maintain higher interest rates and implement fiscal policy interventions.
  • In addition, in February 2025, the United States announced the imposition of tariffs on certain goods imported from Canada, Mexico and China and has made announcements regarding the potential imposition of tariffs on goods imported from other jurisdictions.
  • Impacted countries have and in the future may impose retaliatory tariffs, and such actions could give rise to an escalation of other trade measures by the countries subject to such tariffs.
  • While the application of certain previously announced tariffs have been delayed, there is no guarantee that the tariffs will not go into effect and there is the possibility that additional United States tariffs may be imposed on Canada, Mexico, China and other countries.
  • Trade restrictions and increased tariffs between the United States and countries like Canada, Mexico and China may result in adverse economic conditions, increase the costs of goods sold and result in a recession or the threat of a recession.
  • Because ChargePoint is substantially reliant on the increased adoption and sales of new EVs, if there is any downturn in the sales of EVs or consumers reduce their purchases of new EVs, either because the vehicles are more expensive or as the result of a general downturn in the overall economy as the result of the tariffs, ChargePoint’s customers may reduce their need for EV infrastructure development and ChargePoint’s business, financial results and results of operations may be harmed.
  • A downturn in macroeconomic conditions, including a resumption in the rise of inflation and interest rates; increases or changes in U.S. or global tariff policies and programs and any corresponding supply chain disruptions; global political and economic uncertainty; geopolitical tensions, such as the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, conflicts in the Middle East and the possibility of trade war, conflict or sanctions between the United States and China; a lack of availability of credit; financial services sector instability; a reduction in business confidence and activity; and other factors have in the past, and may in the future, negatively affect the industries to which ChargePoint sells its products and services.
  • Disruptions in the manufacturing, delivery and overall supply chain of vehicle manufacturers and suppliers have in the past and may in the future result in additional costs and, to a lesser extent, component shortages, and have led to fluctuations in EV sales in markets around the world.
  • Increased demand for personal electronics and trade restrictions that affect raw materials have contributed in the past and may in the future result in a shortfall of semiconductor chips, which has caused additional supply challenges both within and outside of ChargePoint’s industry.
  • Supply chain challenges, component shortages and heightened logistics costs have previously Table of Content adversely affected ChargePoint’s gross margins and may do so again in the future.
  • ChargePoint may also experience significant interruptions of its manufacturing operations, delays in its ability to deliver products, or increased costs as a result of: • the failure or inability to accurately forecast demand and obtain sufficient quantities of quality raw materials or replacement parts on a cost-effective basis; • volatility in the availability and cost of materials or services, including rising prices due to inflation, imposition of tariffs, or sanctions or any trade wars with countries that are critical to ChargePoint’s supply chain or contract manufacturing partners such as Mexico, China and Taiwan; • shipment delays due to transportation interruptions or capacity constraints, such as reduced availability of air, shipping or ground transport or port closures; • information technology or infrastructure failures, including those of a third party supplier or service provider; • difficulties or delays in obtaining required import or export approvals; • natural disasters or other events beyond ChargePoint’s control (such as earthquakes, utility interruptions, tsunamis, hurricanes, typhoons, floods, storms or extreme weather conditions, fires, regional economic downturns, regional or global health epidemics); and • geopolitical turmoil, including the ongoing invasion of Ukraine by Russia and conflicts in the Middle East, rising political tensions with China or increased trade restrictions between the United States, Russia, China and other countries, social unrest, political instability, terrorism, or other acts of war which may further adversely impact supply chains, shipping, transportation and logistics disruptions.
