• Reverse Stock Split Proposed

  The board seeks approval for a reverse stock split at a ratio between 1-for-5 and 1-for-20, aiming to push the share price above $1.00 and regain Nasdaq compliance.

• Delisting Would Trigger Note Repurchase

  A Nasdaq delisting would constitute a Fundamental Change under the 2026 and 2028 convertible notes, potentially requiring repurchase of $353.2M in principal—exceeding the company's $204.4M cash balance as of March 31, 2026.

• Special Meeting Set for September 22

  Shareholders will vote on the reverse stock split at a virtual special meeting on September 22, 2026; the board may abandon the split if it deems it no longer in the company's best interest.

• Nasdaq Delisting Clock Ticking

  The company received a delisting notice on May 8, 2026, and has until November 4, 2026, to regain compliance; failure could lead to delisting and the note repurchase crisis.

The vote is set for September 22, 2026, and failure could lead to a liquidity crisis and default.
