- The Private Placement and Proposed Public Offering are subject to customary closing conditions and market uncertainties.
- The Company has updated its corporate presentation slide deck (Exhibit 99.1).

- Actual results may differ materially from forward-looking statements due to market conditions and the potential failure to complete the Private Placement or Public Offering on anticipated terms.
- Investors are directed to the "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis" sections of the Company's 2024 Annual Report (Form 10-K) and Q1 2025 Quarterly Report (Form 10-Q) for a comprehensive list of risks.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Transaction Status: Verify the closing of the Proposed Public Offering, as the $25 million private placement with Abbott is contingent upon it.
- Ownership Structure: Confirm the final share count issued to Abbott to ensure the 4.99% beneficial ownership cap was respected.
- Strategic Exclusivity: Monitor the timeline for FDA clearance of the Freedom Product, as this triggers the expiration of Abbott's exclusive negotiation rights.
- Capital Resources: Review the most recent 10-Q (Q1 2025) for current cash balances and burn rate, as this 8-K does not provide updated liquidity figures.
- Regulatory Progress: Track the status of the Freedom Product's iCGM clearance, which is a key milestone for the strategic agreement.
