Going Concern Warning Reiterated
The company explicitly states 'substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern' due to net losses, continuous cash outflows, a shareholders' deficit of $1.159 million, and only $24,000 in cash, which is insufficient for the next 12 months.
-
Increased Related-Party Debt
Notes payable to related parties increased to $720,000 by March 31, 2026. Additionally, a subsequent event on May 7, 2026, revealed another $300,000 in promissory notes from insiders (Frost Gamma Investments Trust and Dr. Jane Hsiao) at 11% interest, bringing total related-party debt to over $1 million.
-
Material Weakness in Internal Controls
Management reported that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026, due to a material weakness related to insufficient segregation of duties and undocumented internal control procedures.
-
Worsening Financial Performance
The company reported a net loss of $163,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a significant increase from $39,000 in the prior year, primarily due to professional fees associated with the planned merger with Gravitics, Inc.

Critically, the company continues to rely heavily on related-party debt for financing, with an additional $300,000 secured from insiders shortly after the quarter end, underscoring its limited access to external capital and precarious liquidity position.
