- Confirm the effective date of the reduction in authorized shares and the reverse split.
- Review the impact of the increased equity pool (8,250,000 shares) on potential future dilution.
- Check subsequent filings for the implementation of the reverse split and any related press releases (Exhibit 99.1).
