• Significant Dilution Risk from Preferred Stock

  The company's Series A Preferred Stock, if fully redeemed into common stock, could result in the issuance of 88,890,000 shares, representing over 400% dilution to the 20,776,179 common shares outstanding as of April 13, 2026.

• New Highly Dilutive Convertible Notes

  Mitesco secured a $50,000 convertible promissory note on April 10, 2026, with conversion terms at the lesser of $0.15 per share or 65% of the lowest trading price over the prior ten days, indicating distressed financing.

• Material Weaknesses in Internal Controls

Mitesco, Inc.'s annual report reveals severe financial distress, with both management and the independent auditor expressing substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Despite reporting a net income, this was driven by a non-cash revaluation of derivative liabilities, not operational profitability, as revenues remain minimal and operating losses increased. The company faces extreme dilution risk from its Series A Preferred Stock, which could result in over 400% dilution if fully converted, and has recently entered into new highly dilutive convertible notes with variable conversion prices. Furthermore, material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting raise significant concerns about the reliability of its financial statements. Investors should be aware of the company's precarious financial position and the substantial dilution threat.
