ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Use of Proceeds
Our IPO was effected through a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-256572) that was declared effective by the SEC on October 19, 2021. On October 22, 2021, 5,750,000 shares of our common stock were sold at a price to the public of $5.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $28.75 million. As of the date of filing this report, the offering has terminated, and all of the securities registered pursuant to the offering were sold prior to termination. ThinkEquity LLC acted as the underwriter of this offering.
We paid to the underwriter underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $2.5 million in connection with the offering. In addition, we incurred expenses of approximately $1.8 million in connection with the offering. Thus, the net offering proceeds to us, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $24.4 million. The net proceeds shall be used in a manner consistent with the use of proceeds from the IPO as described in the Prospectus under “Use of Proceeds.”
The foregoing expenses are a reasonable estimate of the expenses incurred by us in the offering and do not represent the exact amount of expenses incurred. All of the foregoing expenses were direct or indirect payments to persons other than (i) our directors, officers or any of their associates; (ii) persons owning 10% or more of our common stock; or (iii) our affiliates.
There has been no material change in the use of proceeds from the IPO as described in the Prospectus under “Use of Proceeds.”
