A 57% year-over-year revenue decline to $886K for Q2 2026 underscores the severity of the slowdown, with a net loss of $11.1 million. Cash fell to $1.37 million from $7.02 million at year-end, and the company reiterated substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The quarter included a $4.6 million loss on debt extinguishment from converting $4 million of term loan notes into Series C preferred stock. Additionally, the company disclosed a new Nasdaq listing risk: the SEC approved a $5 million minimum market value rule with no cure period, though implementation was stayed on July 29, 2026. The company continues to sell shares via its ATM program, raising only $34K net in July-August, highlighting severe liquidity constraints.
