Material Changes and Regulatory Event
On January 29, 2026, the Company received a Warning Letter from the FDA following an inspection of its Irvine facility conducted between June 9, 2025, and June 26, 2025. The Warning Letter cited deficiencies in the Company's response to a previously issued Form 483. Key observations included non-conformities in:
- Quality Management System
- Medical Device Reporting
- Correction and Removals
The Warning Letter does not currently restrict the Company's ability to produce, market, manufacture, or distribute products, nor does it restrict the ability to seek FDA 510(k) clearance for new products.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Management states that the Company is preparing a written response and has already initiated several corrective actions. While the Company intends to provide regular updates to the FDA, it cannot assure that the FDA will be satisfied with the response or predict the resolution date. Until resolved, additional legal or regulatory action may be taken.
Despite the Warning Letter, the Company does not expect a material impact on its previously disclosed guidance to launch the commercialization of its product, Mint, by the end of 2027.
Investor Verification Checklist
