Finally, our stockholders ratified the selection of Wolf & Company, P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025. The vote for such ratification was 4,466,905 shares for, 592,161 shares against, 133,206 shares abstaining, and no broker non-votes.
