|---|---|---|
| AI datacenter growth | Lower growth in AI applications → reduced order intake and weaker revenue growth. | Continued strong growth in AI applications → higher revenue and improved profitability. |
| Riverpoint Medical integration | Delayed or weak integration → lower contribution to earnings per share than expected. | Successful integration → increased recurring revenue and margin improvement. |
