• Substantial Doubt About Going Concern

  Both management and the independent auditors explicitly state substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring net losses, negative cash flows from operations, and a significant working capital deficit of $6.33 million as of December 31, 2025.

• Deteriorating Financial Performance

  The company reported an increased net loss of $5.51 million for 2025, up from $4.76 million in 2024. Cash balance decreased to $251,291 at year-end 2025 from $307,442 in 2024, with net cash used in operating activities increasing to $3.33 million.

• Heavy Reliance on Dilutive Financing

  Provectus continues to fund operations through convertible notes, issuing $2.51 million in 2025. Subsequent to year-end, an additional $285,000 in convertible notes were issued, and $491,097 of existing notes converted into 171,594 shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock. The company has 203 million potentially dilutive shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025, representing significant potential dilution if converted to common stock.

• Extension of Preferred Stock Conversion Date

  The automatic conversion date for Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock has been extended to December 31, 2028, maintaining the overhang of these convertible securities.
