In May 2025, the Company entered into the 2025 SPA with the 2025 Investor relating to the purchase and sale in a registered direct offering of an aggregate of 275,808 shares of Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share at a price of $12.69 per share, based on the trailing 30-trading day volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock.

Previous wording

The second part of our business is focused on partnerships in the biologics drug and delivery space. Our services include protocol consultation and solutions for preclinical study design and execution for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents to the brain. Currently, we have more than 60 biologics and drug delivery customers who are evaluating using our products and services in trials to inject gene and cell therapies directly into the brain. These partnerships involve drug development programs that are at various stages of development ranging from preclinical research to late-stage regulatory trials for multiple distinct disease states. This part of our business potentially represents the largest opportunity for growth; however, our ability to grow in this market is dependent on our ability to maintain and establish new relationships with customers, such customers' continuation of research and development plans, and such customers' achievement of success in completion of clinical trials and subsequent regulatory approvals of their biologics and drugs.
