Two highly dilutive proposals won shareholder approval: adding 2 million shares to the incentive plan and issuing shares for the $50 million warrant exercise from the April 2026 financing. With only 15.2 million shares outstanding, the plan increase alone represents over 13% potential dilution. The warrant issuance, if fully exercised, would add significant additional shares. Both measures were critical for the company's survival, given its going concern warning and zero revenue, but they come at a steep cost to existing holders.
