Current report
We could fail to complete the Realbotix Transactions, or the Realbotix Transactions may be completed on different terms.
Current report
There can be no assurance that the Realbotix Transactions will be completed, or if completed, that they will be completed on the same or similar terms to those set out in our previous disclosure. The Realbotix Transactions are subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent, some of which are outside our control, which include, among others, performance by Simulacra and Realbotix of their respective obligations and covenants in the Share Exchange Agreement. If these conditions are not satisfied (or waived) or the Realbotix Transactions are not completed for any other reason, our stockholders will not receive the consideration contemplated in the Share Exchange Agreement.
Current report
If the Realbotix Transactions are not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected as a result of the costs (including opportunity costs) incurred in respect of pursuing the Realbotix Transactions, and we could experience negative reactions from the financial markets, which could cause a decrease in the market price of our Common Stock, particularly if the current market price reflects market assumptions that the Realbotix Transactions will be completed or completed on certain terms. We may also experience negative reactions from our employees and there could be negative impact our ability to attract future business opportunities. Failure to complete the Realbotix Transactions or a change in the terms of the Realbotix Transactions could each have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Current report
We may pay a transaction fee to Realbotix if we fail to complete the Realbotix Transactions and could significantly harm the market price of our common stock and negatively affect our future business and operations.
Current report
If the Realbotix Transactions is not completed and the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, we may be required to pay Realbotix a termination fee as follows:
Current report
Even if a termination fee is not payable in connection with a termination of the Share Exchange Agreement, we will have incurred significant fees and expenses, which must be paid whether or not the Realbotix Transactions is completed. Further, if the Realbotix Transactions is not completed, it could significantly harm the market price of our common stock.
Current report
In addition, if the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated and we determine to seek another business combination, there can be no assurance that we will be able to find a partner and close an alternative transaction on terms that are as favorable as or more favorable to us than the terms set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement.
Current report
The closing of the Realbotix Transactions is subject to approval by our stockholders.. Failure to obtain these other required approvals would prevent the closing of the Realbotix Transactions.
Current report
The closing of the Realbotix Transactions is subject to certain approvals by our stockholders.. Failure to obtain the required stockholder approvals may result in a material delay in, or the abandonment of, the Realbotix Transactions. Any delay in completing the Realbotix Transactions may materially adversely affect the timing and benefits that are expected to be achieved from the Realbotix Transactions.
Current report
If the Realbotix Transactions is not completed, the Board may decide to pursue our dissolution and liquidation. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such liquidation as well as the amount of cash that will need to be reserved for commitments and contingent liabilities.
Current report
There can be no assurance that the Realbotix Transactions will be completed. If the Realbotix Transactions is not completed, our Board may decide to pursue our dissolution and liquidation. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such decision, as with the passage of time the amount of cash available for distribution will be reduced we continue to fund our operations. In addition, if our Board were to approve and recommend, and our stockholders were to approve, our dissolution and liquidation, we would be required under Delaware corporate law to pay its outstanding obligations, as well as to make reasonable provision for contingent and unknown obligations, prior to making any distributions in liquidation to our stockholders. As a result of this requirement, a portion of our remaining cash assets may need to be reserved pending the resolution of such obligations. In addition, we may be subject to litigation or other claims related to a dissolution and liquidation. If a dissolution and liquidation were pursued, our Board, in consultation with its advisors, would need to evaluate these matters and make a determination about a reasonable amount to reserve. Accordingly, holders of our common stock could lose all or a significant portion of their investment in the event of pir liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Current report
The issuance of securities would result in significant dilution in the equity interest of existing stockholders and adversely affect the marketplace of our Common Stock.
Current report
The issuance or conversion of Common Stock or other securities convertible into Realbotix Common Stock in connection with the Realbotix Transactions would result in significant dilution in the equity interest of our existing stockholders and adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. In addition, future issuances of, or conversions of, securities may result in significant dilution to our existing stockholders, which could adversely impact your investment.
Current report
Our stockholders may not realize a benefit from the acquisition of Realbotix commensurate with the ownership dilution they will experience in connection with the Realbotix Transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement.
Current report
If we are unable to realize the full strategic and financial benefits currently anticipated from the Realbotix Transactions, our stockholders may experience a dilution of their ownership interests without receiving any commensurate benefit, or only receiving part of the commensurate benefit to the extent we are able to realize only part of the strategic and financial benefits currently anticipated from the Realbotix Transactions. The Realbotix Transactions may pose integration challenges which could result in management and business disruptions, any of which could harm our results of operation, business prospects, and impair the value of the Realbotix Transactions to our stockholders.
Current report
The failure to successfully integrate the businesses of us and Realbotix in the expected timeframe would adversely affect our future results.
Current report
Our ability to successfully integrate our operations and those of Realbotix will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from the Realbotix Transactions. If we are not able to achieve the stated objectives, the anticipated benefits of the Realbotix Transactions may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, and the value of our Common Stock may be adversely affected. In addition, the integration of our and Realbotix’s respective businesses will be a time-consuming and expensive process. Proper planning and effective and timely implementation will be critical to avoid any significant disruption to our operations. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of our business or the identification of inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors, creditors or lessors, or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Realbotix Transactions. Delays encountered in the integration process could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition, including the value of our Common Stock.
Current report
The pending Realbotix Transactions may divert the attention of our management.
Current report
The pending Realbotix Transactions could cause the attention of our management to be diverted from the day-to-day operations. These disruptions could be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Realbotix Transactions and could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or prospects regardless of whether the Realbotix Transactions are ultimately completed.
Current report
Unexpected market disruptions may cause major losses for us not anticipated under the Share Exchange Agreement.
Current report
We may incur major losses in the event of disrupted markets and other extraordinary events in which market behavior diverges significantly from historically recognized patterns, which may offset any potential benefits achieved under the Share Exchange Agreement. The risk of loss in such events may be compounded by the fact that, in disrupted markets, many positions become illiquid, making it difficult or impossible to close out positions against which markets are moving. Market disruptions caused by unexpected political, military and terrorist events, or other factors, may from time to time cause dramatic losses for us.
Current report
Risks associated with changes in the technology industry.
Current report
Realbotix operates in a competitive industry characterized by rapid technological change and evolving industry standards. Realbotix’s ability to attract new customers to its business, and generate revenue from existing customers will depend largely on its ability to anticipate industry standards and trends, respond to technological advances in its industry, and keep pace with technological developments and customers’ increasingly sophisticated needs. The success of any enhancement of Realbotix’s products or new related applications will depend on several factors, including the timely completion and market acceptance of the products.
Current report
Realbotix’s services are expected to embody complex technology that may not meet those standards, changes and preferences. Realbotix’s ability to design, develop and commercially launch products depends on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, its ability to design and implement solutions and services at an acceptable cost and quality, its ability to attract and retain skilled technical employees, the availability of critical components from third parties, and its ability to successfully complete the development of the products in a timely manner. There is no guarantee that Realbotix will be able to respond to market demands. If Realbotix is unable to effectively respond to technological changes or fails or delays to develop services in a timely and cost-effective manner, Realbotix may be unable to recover our development expenses which could negatively impact sales, profitability and the continued viability of its business.
Current report
We may be unable to protect Realbotix’s intellectual property.
Current report
Realbotix’s commercial success depends to a significant degree upon its ability to develop new or improved technologies, instruments, and services, and to obtain patents, where appropriate, or other intellectual property rights or statutory protection for these technologies and products in Canada and the United States. Despite devoting resources to the research and development of proprietary technology, Realbotix, may not be able to develop new technology that is patentable or protectable. Further, patents issued to Realbotix, if any, could be challenged, held invalid or unenforceable, or be circumvented and may not provide Realbotix with necessary or sufficient protection or a competitive advantage. Competitors and other third parties may be able to design around Realbotix’s intellectual property or develop technology similar to Realbotix’s products that is not within the scope of such intellectual property. Realbotix’s inability to secure its indirectly owned, intellectual property rights may have a materially adverse effect on its business and results of operations.
Current report
The business of Realbotix is exposed to cybersecurity risks.
Current report
Cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events, and may arise from internal sources (e.g., employees, contractors, suppliers and operational risks) or external sources (e.g., nation states, terrorists, hacktivists, competitors and acts of nature). Cyber incidents include unauthorized access to information systems and data (e.g., through hacking or malicious software) for purposes of misappropriating or corrupting data or causing operational disruption. Cyber incidents also may be caused in a manner that does not require unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (e.g., efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users). A cyber incident that affects Realbotix might cause disruptions and adversely affect their respective business operations and might also result in violations of applicable law (e.g., personal information protection laws), each of which might result in potentially significant financial losses and liabilities, regulatory fines and penalties, reputational harm, and reimbursement and other compensation costs to Realbotix. In addition, substantial costs might be incurred to investigate, remediate, and prevent cyber incidents.
Current report
We expect to incur significant transaction costs in connection with the Realbotix Transactions.
Current report
We expect to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with negotiating and completing the Realbotix Transaction. These fees and costs have been, and will continue to be, substantial and, in many cases, will be borne by us whether or not the Realbotix Transaction is completed. A substantial majority of our non-recurring expenses will consist of transaction costs related to the Realbotix Transactions and include, among others, fees paid to financial, legal, accounting and other advisors. We will continue to assess the magnitude of theses costs, and we may incur additional unanticipated costs. The costs described above and any unanticipated costs and expenses, many of which will be borne by us even if the Realbotix Transaction is not completed, could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results.

Current wording
The Company has incurred substantial operating losses since inception and expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash of approximately $3.7 million, a working capital surplus of approximately $1.3 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $135.4 million. In addition, as of May 12, 2026, the Company’s cash balance was approximately $4.1 million, and the Company has approximately $0.02 million of debt due within the next 12 months.
Previous wording
We estimate, as of the date of this Report, that our current cash balance is not sufficient to fund operations over the next twelve months. We believe that we will need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our continuing operations, satisfy existing and future obligations and liabilities, and otherwise support the Company’s working capital needs and business activities, including the commercialization of Proclarix, which is still subject to further successful development and commercialization activities within certain jurisdictions.
Current wording
We believe that we will need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our continuing operations, satisfy existing and future obligations and liabilities, and otherwise support the Company’s working capital needs and business activities, including completing the Realbotix Transactions on a timely basis and the commercialization of Proclarix, which is still subject to further successful development and commercialization activities within certain jurisdictions.
Previous wording
Management also intends to secure additional required funding through equity or debt financings if available. In December 2024, the Company began utilizing the ELOC entered into in October 2024 (see Note 9) on an as-needed basis to fund current operating needs, subject to certain restrictions and beneficial ownership constraints. However, based on the terms of the ELOC and the current maximum availability, management determined that the funds readily available under the ELOC will not be sufficient to raise substantial additional capital to fund our continuing operations, satisfy existing and future obligations and liabilities, and otherwise support the Company’s working capital needs and business activities and . The commercialization of Proclarix, which is still subject to further successful development and commercialization activities within certain jurisdictions. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail any future clinical trials, development and/or commercialization of future product candidates, and it may take additional measures to reduce expenses in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations, or, if its required to, file for bankruptcy.

If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail any future clinical trials, development and/or commercialization of future product candidates, delay the closing of the Realbotix Transactions on a timely basis as contemplated in the Share Exchange Agreement, and it may take additional measures to reduce expenses in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations, or, if it is required to, file for bankruptcy.
Previous wording
Our current liabilities are significant, and if those to whom we owe accounts payable, were to demand payment, we would be unable to pay.
Current wording
Our current liabilities are significant, and if those to whom we owe accounts payable, such as Veru or other vendors, were to demand payment, we would be unable to pay.
Previous wording
As of September 30, 2025, we had total current liabilities of approximately $16.3 million, including accounts payable of approximately $1.8 million, accrued expenses of approximately $0.5 million, warrant liabilities of $12.8 million, derivative liabilities of approximately $1.0 million, and approximately $0.2 million (net of discounts) related to the notes payable. As of the same date, we had cash of only $0.8 million. In September 2025, we have completed a Series D financing, which satisfied all amounts due under the Veru notes, and we plan to seek additional funding as necessary to support our operations and growth initiatives. However, the level of our current liabilities may make it more difficult for us to obtain adequate financing on favorable terms, if at all. If those to whom these payments are due were to demand immediate payment, as they are entitled to do, and we are not able to make the required payments, we would be subject to liability if our creditors chose to enforce their rights, which could result in our bankruptcy and insolvency. Under such a scenario, our assets would be distributed to our creditors leaving nothing to be distributed to our stockholders.
