Item 1A. Risk Factors
Item
1A. Risk Factors.
An
investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks set forth in the “Risk Factors”
section of our Annual Report, other information set forth in this Report, and the additional information in the other reports we file
with the SEC. If any of the risks contained in those reports occur, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity
could be harmed, the value of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. Except as described below,
there have been no material changes in the risk factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report.
If
we fail to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, our common stock and our outstanding public warrants to purchase common
stock could be delisted.
Our
common stock and our public warrants are listed on Nasdaq. We are required to meet specified financial and other requirements in order
to maintain such listing, including a requirement that the closing bid price for our common stock remain above $1.00 and that the market
value of our common stock is at least $50 million and the market value of publicly held shares of our common stock is at least $15 million.
On
April 16, 2026, we received a letter from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) notifying us that we
no longer meet Nasdaq’s $50 million minimum market value for listed securities requirement pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A)
(the “MVLS Requirement”) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market based on Nasdaq’s review of the market value
of the Company’s listed securities for the previous 30 consecutive business days. In addition, on April 17, 2026, we received a
letter from the Staff notifying us that we no longer meet Nasdaq’s $15 million minimum market value of publicly held shares requirement
under Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(C) and (3)(C) (the “MVPHS Requirement”, and together with the MVLS Requirement, the
“Requirements”) based on Nasdaq’s review of the market value of the Company’s publicly held shares for the previous
30 consecutive business days. The notifications have no immediate effect on the Company’s listing or trading on the Nasdaq Global
Market.
Nasdaq
has provided us a period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with each Requirement, or until October 13, 2026 for the MVLS Requirement
(the “MVLS Compliance Date”) and October 14, 2026 for the MVPHS Requirement (the “MVPHS Compliance Date” and,
together with the MVLS Compliance Date, the “Compliance Dates”). If, at any time before the applicable Compliance Date, our
market value of listed securities closes at $50 million or more or our market value of publicly held shares closes at $15 million or
more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days and up to generally not more than 20 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide
written notification to us that we have regained compliance with the applicable Requirement.
We
intend to actively monitor the market value of our listed securities and publicly held shares. We may evaluate and consider available
options for regaining compliance with the Requirements, as well as applying for a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market. However, there
can be no assurance that we will take any specific action or be able to regain compliance with either Requirement or otherwise maintain
compliance with Nasdaq listing rules.
If
we fail to regain compliance with the Requirements or to meet other Nasdaq continued listing requirements, Nasdaq may take steps to delist
our securities. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our securities and would impair your ability to
sell or purchase the securities when you wish to do so. In the event of a delisting, we can provide no assurance that any action taken
by us to restore compliance with listing requirements would allow our securities to become listed again, stabilize the market price or
improve the liquidity of our securities, prevent our securities from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent
future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements. Additionally, if our securities are not listed on, or become delisted
from, Nasdaq for any reason, and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities
that is not a national securities exchange, the liquidity and price of our securities may be more limited than if our securities were
quoted or listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be
established or sustained.
