• Urgent Capital Raise

  The company is seeking to raise approximately $3.4 million in net proceeds through a public offering, which is critical given its cash runway extends only through June 2026 and its 'going concern' warning.

• Significant Dilution

  The offering includes 2,631,579 shares of common stock and up to 2,631,579 pre-funded warrants, plus additional placement agent warrants. If fully exercised, this would increase the number of outstanding shares by over 55% (from 4,743,061 to 7,374,640 shares, excluding placement agent warrants), resulting in substantial dilution for existing shareholders.

• Offering Price and Structure

  Shares are offered at an assumed public price of $1.52, slightly below the current market price of $1.54. Pre-funded warrants are offered at $1.513 with a nominal exercise price of $0.007, effectively requiring upfront payment.

• Use of Proceeds

  Net proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, indicating a need to fund ongoing operations and extend the company's financial viability.
