This S-3 filing formalizes the potential for massive dilution for XWELL, Inc. shareholders, following the highly dilutive financing mentioned in the concurrently filed 10-K. The registration of 138.6 million shares for resale by selling stockholders, representing nearly 1850% of currently outstanding shares, creates a significant overhang on the stock. While the company secured capital to alleviate its going concern status, this filing details the substantial cost to existing equity holders.
