Each card carries a disclosed-size chip (HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW — how large the exposure is as a share of revenue, not how dangerous it is) and a nature tag: Built-in(the company’s own model, geography, or products) or Outside party (an external customer, supplier, or distributor it relies on).
“10-K Item 1A: 'all our systems are currently manufactured, assembled, tested, and packaged by Columbia Tech'”
“10-K Item 1: 'One customer, which is a reseller of our products, accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue for both years ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024.'”
Evolv Technologies' concentration risk sits on both the supply and customer side, at different disclosed weights. On production, all of the company's systems are currently manufactured, assembled, tested, and packaged by Columbia Tech, a single contract manufacturer disclosed at a high share — meaning there's no alternate production line disclosed if that relationship were disrupted. On the customer side, one customer, a reseller of the company's products, accounted for more than 10% of total revenue for both years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, a comparatively low-share dependency relative to the manufacturing exposure. These are both dependency-type risks tied to specific counterparties rather than structural features of the business model, but they sit at very different weights: the reliance on a single contract manufacturer for all systems is the more consequential of the two, since it touches the entire product line rather than a portion of revenue tied to one reseller. Net, Evolv's more material disclosed concentration is on the supply side — single-sourced manufacturing for its entire product range — with customer concentration through one reseller a secondary, smaller factor by comparison.
