Mitesco authorized 17.1 million restricted shares to board members, developers, advisors, and a financial advisor — nearly doubling the share count from 20.9 million to about 47 million. The shares are priced at $0.035, the recent closing price, and total compensation expense of $738,500. This massive insider issuance comes amid a critical financial state with no revenue, minimal cash, and a going concern warning. While the shares are restricted and not immediately sold, the dilution is severe and signals the board is rewarding itself and key contributors with equity rather than cash, further pressuring existing shareholders. The advisory agreement with Dawson James may bring future financing but adds no immediate value.
