If we fail to meet Nasdaq’s listing requirements, we could be removed from The Nasdaq Capital Market, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of shareholders to sell their securities in the secondary market and negatively impact our ability to raise capital.
Companies trading on Nasdaq, such as our Company, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and must meet the listing requirements in order to maintain the listing of common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If we do not meet these requirements, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of shareholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
If our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, it will have material negative impact on the actual and potential liquidity of our securities, as well as material negative impact on our ability to raise future capital. If, for any reason, Nasdaq should delist our common stock from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange or take action to restore our compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our shareholders:
•
the liquidity of our common stock;
•
the market price of our common stock;
•
our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;
•
the number of institutional and general investors that will consider investing in our securities;
•
the number of market makers in our common stock;
•
the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our common stock; and
•
the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our common stock.
Investors may suffer substantial dilution related to issued stock warrants and options.
As of January 20, 2026, we had a number of agreements or obligations that may result in dilution to investors. These include:
•
warrants to purchase a total of 6,798,141 shares of our common stock at a current weighted average exercise price of approximately $2.36;
•
options to purchase 893,355 shares of our common stock at a current weighted average exercise price of approximately $6.15; and
•
5,309,912 shares of common stock available for future issuance under our 2025 Equity Incentive Plan as of January 20, 2026.
We also have an incentive compensation plan for our management, employees and consultants. We have granted, and expect to grant in the future, options to purchase shares of our common stock to our directors, employees and consultants. To the extent that warrants or options are exercised, our stockholders will experience dilution and our stock price may decrease.
Additionally, the sale, or even the possibility of the sale, of the shares of common stock underlying these warrants and options could have an adverse effect on the market price for our securities or on our ability to obtain future financing.
Our shares of common stock are thinly traded, so stockholders may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if they need to sell shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate their shares.
Our common stock has from time to time been “thinly-traded,” meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near ask prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company that is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as
