LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the sale and issuance in an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) by the Company of 7,900,677 shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), at a public offering price of $22.15 per Share. The Underwriters have agreed to purchase the Shares from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $20.821 per share. In addition, the Company has also granted the Underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase an additional 1,185,101 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions (the “Option”). On January 22, 2026, the Underwriters exercised the Option in full. The Offering is expected to close on January 23, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The Shares and the Option Shares in the Offering are being offered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281318), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 6, 2024 which became effective on August 15, 2024, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and a related registration statement on Form S-3MEF (File No. 333-292864) filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act on January 21, 2026 which became effective automatically upon filing.
