This 424B3 filing finalizes the terms for the resale of up to 5 million shares of common stock by selling securityholders, following the S-3 registration filed on February 9, 2026. These shares originated from a $5 million private placement that closed on February 3, 2026, which included common stock and warrants. The registration of this substantial block of shares, representing approximately 9.17% of outstanding common stock, creates a significant market overhang. Notably, the CEO and certain directors are listed among the selling securityholders, indicating their potential intent to sell. While the initial capital raise was priced at a premium to the market at the time, the company will not receive proceeds from these resales, only from the exercise of warrants, the majority of which are currently out-of-the-money. This event contributes to a broader pattern of recent insider distribution.
