Ethos Limited IPO Cons

1. Because the company does not have definite agreements for product supply or established terms of trade with the bulk of its suppliers, disruptions in product supply can harm the business's profitability.

2. The business is partly dependent on the global success and reputation of third-party brands, and any negative impact on these brands or failure by Ethos or the owners of these brands to protect them, as well as other intellectual property rights and proprietary information, may have a negative impact on the business.

3. Inability to effectively identify client demand and maintain an adequate level of inventory in stores

4. Because it relies on watch brands to manufacture all of the products it sells, any disruptions in the manufacturing end can have an impact on the firm.
