Stockholders approved a significant increase in the shares available under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, adding 412,500 shares for a new total of 500,000. This represents a potential dilution of approximately 57% if all these shares were issued, based on current outstanding shares. This substantial potential dilution is a major concern for existing shareholders, especially given the company's recent history of significant net losses, material weaknesses in internal controls, and its stock trading near 52-week lows. This authorization adds to the dilutive overhang following a recent S-3 shelf registration for $75 million and 1.37 million shares for resale.
