Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The Company has moved from a reported stockholders' equity deficit of US$40.5 million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, to a preliminary pro forma positive equity position of approximately US$20.0 million. This material improvement is driven by the binding close of the first phase of a US$121 million private placement, led by His Royal Highness Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki bin Talal Al Saud and a consortium of non-U.S. investors.
