German term or phrase: gefährdet
Zusammenfassend bleibt festzuhalten, dass der Vorsteuerabzug der Becker GmbH nur dann gefährdet ist, wenn Herr Müller z.B. als Kleinunternehmer bzw. als Nichtunternehmer nicht zum gesonderten Ausweis der Umsatzsteuer berechtigt war.

Would 'gefährdet' translate as 'compromised' or 'threatened' in this context?
