Relating to Preliminary Prospectus dated November 16, 2009
Registration No. 333-161190
This free writing prospectus relates only to the securities described below and should be read together with the preliminary prospectus dated November 16, 2009 relating to this offering (the Preliminary Prospectus), included in Amendment No. 6 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-161190) relating to these securities. The most recent amendment to such Registration Statement can be accessed through the following link: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1262039/000119312509235339/ds1a.htm . The following information supplements and updates the information contained in the Preliminary Prospectus.
The Preliminary Prospectus discloses an increase in the number of shares offered from 12,000,000 to 12,500,000 shares, with the additional 500,000 shares being offered by selling stockholders, including shares held by certain affiliates of George Hara, one of Fortinets directors. In addition, the underwriters will have an option to purchase up to 1,875,000 additional shares from Fortinet to cover over-allotments. The amendment also contains related updates and the updated risk factors set forth below.
The disclosure set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus under Risk Factors Defects or vulnerabilities in our products or services, the failure of our products or services to prevent a virus or security breach, or misuse of our products could harm our reputation and divert resources. has been updated to read in substance as follows:
Because our products and services are complex, they have contained and may contain defects or errors that are not detected until after their commercial release and deployment by our customers. For example, one of our high-end product models has been experiencing a defect in limited deployments. Defects or vulnerabilities may impede or block network traffic or cause our products or services to be vulnerable to electronic break-ins or cause them to fail to help secure networks. Because the techniques used by computer hackers to access or sabotage networks change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques. In addition, defects or errors in our FortiGuard subscription updates or our FortiGate appliances could result in a failure of our FortiGuard services to effectively update end-customers FortiGate appliances and thereby leave customers vulnerable to attacks. Furthermore, our solutions may also fail to detect or prevent viruses, worms or similar threats due to a number of reasons such as the evolving nature of such threats and the continual emergence of new threats that we may fail to add to our FortiGuard databases in time to protect our end-customers networks. Our FortiGuard or FortiCare data centers and networks may also experience technical failures and downtime, and may fail to distribute appropriate updates, or fail to meet the increased requirements of a growing customer base. Any such technical failure, downtime, or failures in general may temporarily or permanently expose our end-customers networks, leaving their networks unprotected against the latest security threats.
An actual or perceived security breach or infection of the network of one of our end-customers, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to the failure of our products or services to prevent the security breach, could adversely affect the markets perception of our security products. We may not be able to correct any security flaws or vulnerabilities promptly, or at all. Our products may also be misused by end-customers or third parties who obtain access to our products. For example, our products could be used to censor private access to certain information on the Internet. Such use of our products for censorship could result in negative press coverage and negatively affect our reputation, even if we take reasonable measures to prevent any improper shipment of our products or if our products are provided by an unauthorized third-party. Any defects, errors or vulnerabilities in our products, or misuse of our products, could result in:
| expenditure of significant financial and product development resources in efforts to analyze, correct, eliminate or work-around errors or defects or to address and eliminate vulnerabilities; |
| loss of existing or potential end-customers or channel partners; |
| delayed or lost revenue; |
| delay or failure to attain market acceptance; |
| negative publicity, which will harm our reputation; and |
| litigation, regulatory inquiries or investigations that may be costly and harm our reputation. |
The disclosure set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus under Risk Factors Our business is subject to the risks of warranty claims, product returns, product liability and product defects. has been updated to read in substance as follows:
Our products are very complex and, despite testing prior to their release, have contained and may contain undetected defects or errors, especially when first introduced or when new versions are released. For example, one of our high-end product models has been experiencing a defect in limited deployments. Product errors have affected the performance of our products and could delay the development or release of new products or new versions of products, adversely affect our reputation and our end-customers willingness to buy products from us, and adversely affect market acceptance or perception of our products. Any such errors or delays in releasing new products or new versions of products or allegations of unsatisfactory performance could cause us to lose revenue or market share, increase our service costs, cause us to incur substantial costs in redesigning the products, cause us to lose significant end-customers, subject us to liability for damages and divert our resources from other tasks, any one of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our products must successfully interoperate with products from other vendors. As a result, when problems occur in a network, it may be difficult to identify the sources of these problems. The occurrence of hardware and software errors, whether or not caused by our products, could delay or reduce market acceptance of our products, and have an adverse effect on our business and financial performance, and any necessary revisions may cause us to incur significant expenses. The occurrence of any such problems could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Although we have limitation of liability provisions in our standard terms and conditions of sale, they may not fully or effectively protect us from claims as a result of federal, state or local laws or ordinances or unfavorable judicial decisions in the United States or other countries. The sale and support of our products also entail the risk of product liability claims. We maintain insurance to protect against certain claims associated with the use of our products, but our insurance coverage may not adequately cover any claim asserted against us. In addition, even claims that ultimately are unsuccessful could result in our expenditure of funds in litigation and divert managements time and other resources.
