Overall dilution risk
HIGHworst of 4 computed signals (cash need)
= the worst band among the computed sub-ratings, no hidden weighting
Offering ability
LOWno live registration found
= is there a registration (S-1/S-3 family) on file without a later withdrawal
Overhead supply
MEDIUMwarrants = 37% of O/S
= warrant shares outstanding divided by current shares outstanding (bands: 20% / 50%)
warrants only; converts, ATMs and equity lines are not in free structured data, so the true overhead is AT LEAST this
Historical dilution
LOW-97% O/S in 3y
= share count now vs 3 years ago (bands: 30% / 100%); a reverse split pushes this negative
a reverse-split-sized cliff is in this window; read the chart
Cash need
HIGH~5.6 months of runway
= cash vs trailing operating burn (bands: 6mo / 24mo; positive operating CF = low)
the company itself flagged going-concern doubt

Same rating bands the category standard uses, but free, with the formula on the chip and the gaps in the data said out loud.

Shares outstanding over time

2020-10-192026-07-24

Latest: 3.6M shares as of Jul 24, 2026 (10-Q). Share count fell from 135.8M to 7.1M between Aug 2, 2024 and Nov 12, 2024, a pattern consistent with a reverse split (roughly 1-for-19); simultaneous issuance can skew the raw ratio, so confirm in the filings. The red bar marks the cliff.

Warrants

TrancheWarrantsExercise priceTermNotes
Common Stock Purchase Warrants75,000not tagged

Tranches exactly as the company dimensioned them in its 10-Q filed Jul 30, 2026. Groupings can overlap (a “Series E and F” row is not additive with a “Series E” row), so do not sum this column. A tranche the filer did not tag is absent here, not absent from the cap table. DOWN-ROUND = the filer tagged price-protection accounting scoped to that tranche.

Warrants outstanding: 1.3M underlying shares, as reported Dec 31, 2025 (10-K).

Reported exercise price: $1.9 (aggregate figure as tagged; individual tranches vary).

Rough fully diluted estimate: 4.9M = 3.6M O/S + 1.3M warrant shares. An estimate, not a filing figure: it ignores converts, options and RSUs, and the two inputs carry different as-of dates.

Convertible notes

No convertible-note facts tagged in the 10-Q filed Jul 30, 2026. If convertible notes exist, their terms live in exhibit prose for this filer and are not parsed; absence of a tag is not proof of absence. The exhibits are the ground truth.

Fully diluted build-up

Shares outstanding plus every potential-share instrument the filer tagged in XBRL, each at its own as-of date. An estimate assembled from filed figures, not a filing figure itself.

Shares outstanding3.6MJul 24, 2026
+ Common Stock Purchase Warrants (if exercised)75,000Jun 30, 2026
Fully diluted estimate3.6M+2.1% vs O/S

Still excluded, because the filer does not tag them in countable form: employee options and RSUs, any instrument living only in exhibit prose, and instruments above missing a share count. Inputs carry different as-of dates, shown per row. Each figure traces to the tranche and note tables above and their cited filings.

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts and filing metadata, fetched live and cached briefly. Share counts are cover-page figures with their form named. Warrant tranches and convertible notes come from the dimensioned facts in the latest 10-Q/10-K instance document, exactly as the company tagged them; untagged tranches and notes are absent, not disproven. Nothing on this page is manually verified and nothing is behind a login: what free data supports is shown, what it cannot support is stated. Not investment advice.
