Material Changes and Events
- Delisting Notice: On September 6, 2024, the Company received a written notice from Nasdaq indicating it is delinquent in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2024.
- Compliance History: The Company previously filed a Form 12b-25 on August 14, 2024, disclosing its inability to file the Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period.
- Delisting Risk: The delinquent filing serves as an additional basis for the potential delisting of the Company's securities from Nasdaq.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Management Commentary and Plan: The Company states it is working diligently to compile the required information and expects to file the delinquent Form 10-Q within the 60-day period provided by Nasdaq rules. Filing within this window would eliminate the need to submit a formal plan to regain compliance.
Regulatory Timeline: If a formal plan is required, Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the delinquent filing's due date (extending to February 17, 2025) to regain compliance. Nasdaq will consider the likelihood of timely filing, past compliance history, reasons for the delay, and the Company's overall financial condition.
Risks and Contingencies: The filing highlights significant risks regarding the Company's ability to respond to Nasdaq inquiries, regain compliance with Listing Rule 5810(b), and become current with SEC reports. Failure to do so could result in delisting.

- Review the Company's past compliance history and reasons for the filing delay as disclosed in the Form 12b-25.
