Strong Q1 Financial Performance
Revenues increased 17% year-over-year to $10.1 million. Gross margins expanded significantly to approximately 80% from 62% in Q1 2025, driven by a new earnout structure. Cash used in operations was reduced to just $70 thousand, a dramatic improvement from $4.1 million in the prior-year quarter, indicating near cash flow breakeven.

Addresses Going Concern and Nasdaq Compliance
The improved financial performance, particularly the near-zero cash burn, directly mitigates the 'substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern' previously disclosed. The company also announced it has regained compliance with the Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement, resolving a prior delisting notice.
