Analysis · VVOS · Industrial Applications And Services
This S-3/A filing enables Armistice Capital, LLC, a significant institutional investor, to potentially sell 3.96 million shares of Vivos Therapeutics common stock, representing a substantial 29.12% of current outstanding shares. While the company will not receive direct proceeds from these sales, it could receive up to $8.28 million if the warrants are exercised for cash. However, with the current stock price of $0.84 significantly below the $2.09 exercise price, a cash exercise is improbable. This registration creates a considerable overhang on the stock, adding to investor uncertainty, especially as the company recently disclosed a 'going concern' warning and received a Nasdaq non-compliance notice.
