• Resale of 3.27 Million Shares

  A prospectus supplement was filed for the resale of 3,266,870 Class A common stock shares by selling stockholders, valued at approximately $20.9 million based on the current stock price. The company does not receive proceeds from this resale.

• $8 Million in Shares Issued to Vendors

  The company will issue up to $8 million in Class A common stock to certain vendors for services rendered and goods purchased, expected around May 19, 2026. This directly dilutes existing shareholders.

• Execution Under Existing Registration

  Both share movements are being conducted under an existing Registration Statement on Form S-3, originally filed on February 11, 2025, indicating these are specific transactions under a previously established program.

This 8-K details two share-related events under an existing S-3 registration statement. Selling stockholders are making 3.27 million shares available for resale, valued at approximately $20.9 million. Additionally, the company will issue up to $8 million in shares to vendors for services. While the vendor issuance provides necessary capital for operations, both events contribute to share dilution and create an overhang on the stock, consistent with the "continued share dilution" noted in the recent Q1 2026 10-Q.
