Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Decline: Net revenue decreased 50% year-over-year to $2.8 million. Product revenue fell 41% and services revenue fell 63%, primarily due to temporary delays in radar and imaging sensor shipments and timing of customer contracts.
• Margin Compression: Gross margin declined from 47.7% to 26.9%. While cost of revenue decreased 30%, it did not decline proportionally to the 50% drop in revenue.
• Expense Reduction: Operating expenses decreased significantly. Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses dropped 38% to $14.8 million, driven by lower stock-based compensation and reduced earnout costs. R&D expenses decreased 35% to $0.9 million.
• Interest Expense Surge: Interest expense increased 471% to $2.8 million due to higher outstanding borrowings and elevated interest rates on new debt instruments.
• Non-Operating Items: The company recognized a $1.2 million net gain in other non-operating items, largely from gains on debt settlements via equity issuance.

Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items

Going Concern Warning

Management has expressed substantial doubt regarding the company's ability to continue as a going concern. With cash of $2.6 million and an accumulated deficit of $166.6 million, the company lacks adequate liquidity to meet obligations for the next 12 months without additional financing.

Recent Financing and Capital Actions

• Reverse Stock Split: A 1-for-10 reverse stock split became effective on April 6, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement.
• Debt Conversions: In May 2026, the company converted a $4.0 million senior secured convertible note (Leviston) into 2.5 million shares of common stock.
• Preferred Stock Issuance: In May 2026, the company sold Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock to Kips Bay Select, LP, raising approximately $2.0 million in net proceeds.
• ATM Suspension: The company is currently unable to sell shares under its At-The-Market (ATM) agreement due to restrictions on its Form S-3 registration statement.

Risks and Contingencies

• Nasdaq Compliance: While the reverse split restored compliance with the minimum bid price, the company faces immediate delisting risks if it falls out of compliance again, as it is ineligible for another automatic grace period.
• Internal Controls: The company identified material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting, including insufficient segregation of duties and lack of formal accounting policies.
• Litigation: A lawsuit was filed in March 2026 by Ydens Holdings, LLC regarding the 2022 EMI Solutions merger. The company intends to compel arbitration.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Liquidity Runway: Verify the sufficiency of the $2.6 million cash balance against the $18.5 million working capital deficit and upcoming debt maturities.
• Financing Terms: Review the dilutive impact of the recent convertible note conversions and the 10% dividend rate on the new Series A Preferred Stock.
• Revenue Recovery: Confirm the timeline for the resumption of radar and imaging sensor shipments expected in the second half of 2026.
• Internal Controls: Assess the progress of the remediation plan for material weaknesses in financial reporting and IT general controls.
• Stock Split Impact: Monitor post-split trading volume and price stability to ensure continued Nasdaq listing compliance.
