We have a limited operating history and our operations remain in the development stage. To date, our activities have been primarily concentrated on product design, engineering validation, prototyping, and establishing manufacturing and supply chain relationships. We have not yet generated significant revenues from commercial product sales and continue to devote substantial resources to research and development, product qualification, and market readiness.

Previous report
On August 4, 2025, we appointed Christopher Stewart as our Chief Financial Officer. Pursuant to Mr. Stewart’s employment agreement, he was granted 110,000 stock options and 55,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The stock options have an exercise price of $21.04, with 25% of the stock options vesting on the twelve (12) month anniversary of Mr. Stewart’s employment with the Company. The balance of the stock options will vest in equal monthly increments on each monthly anniversary of Mr. Stewart’s employment start date with the Company, over the next thirty-six (36) months. The stock options expire on the 10-year anniversary of their vesting date. 25% of the shares underlying the RSUs will vest at the end of the fiscal quarter following the twelve (12) month anniversary of Mr. Stewart’s employment start date with the Company, with a pro-rated amount for any partial quarter preceding the twelve (12) month anniversary. The remaining RSUs will vest in equal quarterly increments, with a pro-rated amount for any partial final quarter. Each restricted stock unit represents the contingent right to receive, at settlement, one share of common stock.
Previous report
We have a limited operating history, and our future success is subject to numerous uncertainties and risks inherent in the development of a new business. Although we raised substantial funds through underwritten completed public offerings in March 2025 and September 2025, raising gross proceeds of $13.8 million and $25.4 million, respectively, there can be no assurance that these funds will be sufficient to carry out all aspects of our business plan.
Previous report
Prior to the offerings, our operations were primarily financed through the issuance of convertible notes and sales of common stock in private placement transactions. As previously disclosed, we had expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses and negative operating cash flows. With the successful completion of the offerings, we believe that substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated for at least the next twelve months.

Current wording
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, we entered into four and five new material government contracts, respectively, that include NASA, the State University of New York, and the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

Previous wording
Following the offerings, management has assessed our financial position and operating plan and determined that the previously reported substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated. The proceeds from the offerings have provided near-term capital to support our operations and ongoing development efforts. However, we continue to face risks typical of early-stage companies, including limited capital resources, operational and financial challenges, uncertainty in product development and product-market fit.
Current wording
To support these activities, we completed public offerings in March 2025 and September 2025, raising gross proceeds of $13.8 million and $25.4 million, respectively.
