Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the total number of shares outstanding post-warrant exercise if the inducement warrants are exercised.
- Confirm the impact of the increased equity reserve (1,328,365 shares) on future dilution potential.
- Review the specific terms of the Series C-1 and C-2 warrants to understand the timeline for potential share issuance.
- Note the high volume of broker non-votes (1,962,558) in the director election, indicating a significant portion of shares held by brokers did not receive voting instructions.
