• Reverse Stock Split Authority Approved

  Shareholders authorized the Board to implement a reverse stock split at a ratio between 1:5 and 1:50 until December 31, 2027. This is a critical step to address the Nasdaq delisting notice received on June 12, 2026, for failing to meet the $1.00 minimum bid price.

• Equity Incentive Plan Expanded

  The amended 2018 Equity Incentive Plan was approved, increasing the authorized shares for issuance by an additional 1,850,000 shares. This represents a potential dilution of approximately 17.5% based on the company's current market capitalization.
