This 8-K filing confirms the specific terms and effective date of the reverse stock split, following the stockholder approval on February 2, 2026, for a range of ratios. The chosen 1-for-75 ratio is aggressive, significantly reducing outstanding shares and indicating a critical effort to meet Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirements and avoid delisting.
