Current report
We are a development-stage company with no revenue from our semiconductor operations and a limited operating history in the AI semiconductor industry. There can be no assurance that we will successfully develop, commercialize, or achieve market acceptance of our technologies.
Current report
We commenced our strategic transition toward the design and development of fabless semiconductor technologies for AI data center infrastructure in April 2026. We have a limited operating history in the AI semiconductor industry, have not generated any revenue from our semiconductor operations, and have not yet completed a prototype of our initial product, the Neural I/o™ chip. Our ability to generate revenue will depend on our successful development and commercialization of our MicroLED-based optical interconnect technology, which is subject to significant technological, engineering, and manufacturing risks. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop products that meet their intended performance specifications, manufacture them at commercially viable cost levels, or achieve market acceptance. If we are unable to successfully execute our semiconductor strategy, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Current report
We are substantially dependent on our collaboration with Kopin Corporation for the development and manufacturing of our semiconductor products. If our relationship with Kopin is disrupted or terminated, our business could be materially and adversely affected.
Current report
Our semiconductor strategy is substantially dependent on our collaboration with Kopin Corporation pursuant to the JDA dated April 27, 2026 and the related Commercial Supply Agreement. Kopin is the sole provider of the MicroLED technology that is foundational to our Neural I/o chip. Under the Supply Agreement, all products incorporating the project technology must be manufactured exclusively by or on behalf of Kopin, and we are required to purchase our entire requirements for products from Kopin, subject to limited exceptions for supply failure events. If Kopin is unable or unwilling to continue to perform under the JDA or Supply Agreement, experiences manufacturing difficulties, fails to meet quality or delivery requirements, or if the JDA or Supply Agreement is terminated for any reason, we may be unable to develop or commercialize our products on the timelines we anticipate, or at all. In the event of termination arising from our breach, failure to fund, or a bankruptcy event, Kopin has the right to continue to develop, use, and commercialize the project technology without restriction, and we have agreed to assign to Kopin all of our right, title, and interest in the project technology. Any disruption in our relationship with Kopin could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Current report
Our MicroLED-based optical interconnect technology is at an early stage of development and may not achieve the performance characteristics or cost levels necessary for commercial viability.
Current report
Our initial product under development, the Neural I/o chip, is at an early stage of development. We have not yet completed a prototype, and there can be no assurance that the chip will achieve its intended performance specifications, including with respect to bandwidth, latency, and power efficiency. MicroLED-based optical interconnect technology for data center applications is a nascent technology, and we face significant technical challenges in developing a commercially viable product. The development process may take longer, cost more, or encounter more technical obstacles than we currently anticipate. Even if we successfully develop a working prototype, we may face additional challenges in scaling manufacturing, achieving acceptable yield rates, and reducing per-unit costs to levels that are competitive with incumbent copper-based and laser-based interconnect solutions. If we are unable to demonstrate the technological viability of our products or bring them to market in a timely manner, our business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
Current report
We face intense competition from established semiconductor companies with significantly greater resources, and our products may not be able to compete effectively.
Current report
The markets for AI infrastructure and data center interconnect technologies are intensely competitive and subject to rapid technological change. We face competition from established providers of copper-based and laser-based interconnect solutions, including large, diversified semiconductor companies and specialized optical interconnect providers, many of which have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution resources than we do. Many of our potential competitors have longer operating histories, larger and more established customer bases, and more extensive research and development capabilities. We may also face competition from new entrants into the MicroLED interconnect space or from alternative technologies that we have not yet anticipated. If our competitors develop technologies that are superior to ours, or if they are able to bring competing products to market before us, our ability to achieve market acceptance could be significantly impaired, which would materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Current report
We will require substantial additional capital to fund our semiconductor development activities, and there can be no assurance that such capital will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
Current report
Our semiconductor development activities will require substantial capital investment. Pursuant to the JDA, we have agreed to pay Kopin up to $15,000,000 for the initial development of the project technology, and following a successful prototype demonstration, the parties expect to negotiate a production plan that may include an additional payment by us of approximately $15,000,000 to $25,000,000. In addition to our obligations under the JDA, we expect to incur significant costs related to research and development, personnel, equipment, and general corporate activities as we scale our operations. While we have raised significant funds through recent financing transactions, these funds may not be sufficient to fund our development activities through commercialization. If we are unable to raise additional capital when needed, we may be required to delay, reduce, or eliminate certain development programs, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and prospects.
Current report
Our semiconductor products may be subject to export control restrictions and trade regulations that could limit our ability to sell products internationally or collaborate with foreign partners.
Current report
The design, development, and potential sale of semiconductor technologies for AI data center applications are subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations administered by the Bureau of Industry and Security and economic sanctions programs administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. The U.S. government has significantly expanded export controls applicable to advanced semiconductor technologies, AI-related hardware, and supercomputing components in recent years. If our products, once developed, are classified under export-controlled categories, we may be required to obtain licenses or authorizations prior to export, and certain destinations, entities, or end uses may be prohibited entirely. Changes to export control regulations, the Entity List, or the imposition of new sanctions could limit our ability to sell products in key international markets, restrict our ability to collaborate with foreign partners or contract manufacturers, or otherwise materially and adversely affect our business.
Current report
Environmental, health and safety (EHS) laws and regulations may expose us to liability, and such liability and compliance with these laws and regulations may adversely affect our business.
Current report
The semiconductor industry is subject to a variety of international, federal, state, local and non-U.S. laws and regulations governing pollution, environmental protection and occupational health and safety, including those relating to the release, storage, use, discharge, handling, generation, transportation, disposal, and labeling of, and human exposure to, hazardous and toxic materials, product composition, and the investigation and cleanup of contaminated sites, including sites we currently or formerly owned or operated, due to the release of hazardous materials, regardless of whether we caused such release. We are also required to obtain environmental permits from governmental authorities for some of our operations. We cannot be assured that we have been or will be at all times in complete compliance with such EHS laws, regulations and permits. Failure to comply with such EHS laws and regulations could subject us to civil or criminal costs, obligations, sanctions or property damage or personal injury claims, or suspension of our facilities’ operating permits.
Current report
Changes in EHS laws or regulations may require us to invest in costly equipment or make manufacturing process changes and may adversely affect the sourcing, supply and pricing of materials used in our products. We believe that our model of a fabless company minimizes those risks, although any such changes may require us to conduct careful audits of our vendors or even to replace vendors, which may involve costs in qualifying or making adjustments for the work with another vendor.
Current report
In the event of an incident involving hazardous materials, we could be liable for damages and such liability could exceed the amount of any liability insurance coverage and the resources of our business. In addition, in the event of the discovery of contaminants or the imposition of clean up obligations for which we are responsible, we may be required to take remedial or other measures which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In response to environmental concerns, some customers and government agencies impose requirements for the elimination and/or labeling of hazardous substances, such as lead (which is widely used in soldering connections in the process of semiconductor packaging and assembly), in electronic equipment, as well as requirements related to the take-back of products discarded by customers.
Current report
EHS laws and regulations have tended to become more stringent over time, causing a need to redesign technologies, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with violations, which could seriously harm our business.
Current report
In addition, increasingly regulators, customers, investors, employees and other stakeholders are focusing on environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters and related disclosures. These changing rules, regulations and stakeholder expectations have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and increased management time and attention spent complying with or meeting such regulations and expectations.
Current report
We have no full-time employees and rely heavily on consultants and contractors, which may limit our ability to execute our business strategy.
Current report
As of March 31, 2026, we had zero full-time employees and rely on consultants and contractors to supplement our capabilities. Our future success depends in significant part on our ability to attract, retain, and motivate qualified engineering, scientific, and management personnel. Competition for such personnel in the semiconductor industry is intense, and we may not be able to attract or retain the personnel necessary to execute our semiconductor development strategy. Our reliance on consultants and contractors may also create challenges related to intellectual property protection, continuity of institutional knowledge, and the consistent execution of our development programs. If we are unable to build and maintain an adequate team to support our operations, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Current report
Our fabless business model makes us dependent on third-party manufacturers, and our business may be adversely affected by supply chain disruptions, tariffs, or geopolitical risks.
Current report
We operate as a fabless semiconductor company and intend to outsource the fabrication and manufacturing of our chips to third-party contract manufacturers. This model makes us dependent on the manufacturing capacity, quality, and timeliness of our manufacturing partners. A significant portion of global semiconductor manufacturing capacity is concentrated in Asia, and trade tensions between the United States and certain countries have resulted in increased tariffs, export restrictions, and supply chain disruption risk. Changes in trade policy, the imposition of new or increased tariffs on semiconductor components or materials, or disruption of international supply chains could increase our costs, limit access to manufacturing partners, or delay product development and commercialization. Additionally, our dependence on Kopin as the exclusive manufacturer of products incorporating the project technology means that any disruption to Kopin’s manufacturing capabilities could directly and materially impact our ability to deliver products to customers.
Current report
Because we operate a fabless business model, we may not be eligible for certain U.S. government incentives and tax credits offered to promote domestic semiconductor production.
Current report
From time to time, governments may provide subsidies or make other investments that could give competitive advantages to certain semiconductor companies. For example, in 2022, the U.S. government passed the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors & Sciences Act to provide $52.7 billion of funding to U.S.-based semiconductor companies to promote domestic production. Because we operate a fabless business model, we may not be eligible for such incentives from the U.S. government at this time.
Current report
We jointly own intellectual property developed under our collaboration with Kopin, and our dependence on Kopin’s existing intellectual property may limit our ability to independently commercialize our technology.
Current report
Intellectual property developed through our collaboration with Kopin is jointly owned by both companies. Our technology leverages Kopin’s patented bi-directional NeuralDisplay™ architecture, and we are dependent on Kopin’s existing intellectual property portfolio as a foundation for our product development. While Kopin has granted us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license under its background technology for developing and commercializing the project technology, we do not have sole ownership or exclusive rights to much of the intellectual property underlying our products. If our relationship with Kopin deteriorates, or if Kopin’s intellectual property rights are challenged or invalidated by third parties, our ability to develop and commercialize our products could be materially impaired. Additionally, we may face claims of intellectual property infringement from third parties, particularly given the competitive nature of the semiconductor industry, and defending against such claims could be costly and time-consuming.
Current report
The Series J Preferred Stock and related anti-dilution provisions may result in significant dilution to our common stockholders and may limit our operational and financial flexibility.
Current report
Pursuant to the JDA, the Company agreed to issue to Kopin shares of Series J Preferred Stock constituting 19.9% of the pro forma fully-diluted outstanding shares of Common Stock, convertible at the Series J Conversion Price of $2.51 per share. The Series J Certificate of Designations provides that the Maximum Issuance (as defined in the Series J Certificate of Designations) shall be increased upon the occurrence of Dilutive Issuances or Dilutive Conversions by 0.1999 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issued in connection with such events, until adjustments have been made with respect to an aggregate of $50 million in such issuances. The Company has agreed to take all actions necessary to give full force and effect to these adjustment provisions, including through the issuance of additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock to Kopin. In addition, the Series J Preferred Stock accrues dividends at 6% per annum, payable semi-annually on each Dividend Payment Date, which may be paid as a PIK Dividend through the issuance of additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock having an aggregate stated value equal to the amount of the dividend then due, further increasing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion. Without the prior express consent of the Required Holders, the Company may not, among other things, amend its Charter or Bylaws in ways that would adversely affect the Series J Preferred Stock, create or authorize new Senior Preferred Stock or Parity Stock, purchase or redeem Junior Stock, or pay dividends on Junior Stock. These protective provisions, together with the potential for significant dilution from anti-dilution adjustments and PIK Dividends, may restrict the Company’s ability to pursue certain corporate transactions or capital raising activities, depress the market price of the Company’s Common Stock, and make it more difficult for the Company to raise additional capital on favorable terms.

Previous report
Our multi-token investment strategy targeting the stablecoin industry exposes us to significant risks, including market volatility, regulatory uncertainty, and technological vulnerabilities, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Previous report
We have begun a new business strategy focusing on a pureplay, multi-token investment strategy targeting the acquisition of digital assets that directly benefit from the growth of the stablecoin industry. This strategy involves substantial risks that differ significantly from those associated with our historical operations. Digital assets, including stablecoins and tokens tied to the stablecoin ecosystem, are subject to extreme price volatility, liquidity constraints and rapid shifts in market sentiment. These factors could result in significant fluctuations in the value of our holdings over short periods of time.
Previous report
The regulatory environment for digital assets, and stablecoins in particular, is rapidly evolving and subject to significant uncertainty in the United States and abroad. Changes in laws, regulations, or government policy, such as restrictions on stablecoin issuance, trading, or use, could adversely impact the viability and value of our investments. Additionally, stablecoins are dependent on the continued maintenance of their pegged value to a reference currency. Loss of such a peg, operational failures of issuers, or adverse market perceptions could impair the value of related investments.
Previous report
Our strategy also involves risks related to custody, cybersecurity and technology. Digital asset holdings are subject to the risk of theft, hacking, or loss of access due to private key mismanagement or third-party service provider failures. Unlike bank deposits or many traditional investments, digital assets are generally not insured, and we may have no recourse if our holdings are lost or compromised.
Previous report
There can be no assurance that our multi-token investment strategy will generate positive returns or preserve our capital. If we are unable to effectively manage the risks associated with digital assets, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially harmed.
Previous report
There are volatility risks related to stablecoin.
Previous report
There are volatility risks related to stablecoins, which are designed to have a relatively stable price relative to an underlying physical asset, most commonly a fiat currency, such as U.S. dollars, or an exchange-traded commodity. The stability of a stablecoin results from the underlying assets backing the stablecoin that are held by the stablecoin’s issuer in reserve accounts, among other factors such as the ability of a holder to redeem the stablecoin from its issuer at par. The issuers of certain stablecoins currently retain broad discretion to determine the composition and amounts of assets held in the issuers’ accounts backing those stablecoins, and to substitute assets other than the fiat currency that is initially deposited. The composition of backing assets varies considerably across popular stablecoins, with some stablecoins backed entirely by off-chain assets including cash or short-term, highly liquid assets, and others backed by assets significantly less liquid than cash or cash equivalents. A lack of applicable law and regulation has afforded discretion to certain stablecoin issuers to determine the composition and amounts of assets backing those stablecoins. There is a risk that an issuer may be unable to liquidate enough backing assets if it were to face mass redemptions of its stablecoin, which could cause the price of the stablecoin to deviate from the price of the underlying fiat currency or other asset with which the stablecoin is designed to align in price. In extreme cases, such as a request to immediately redeem all or substantially all of a particular stablecoin in circulation, even stablecoins backed by reserves comprised primarily of cash and cash equivalents may be subject to instability or an inability of the stablecoin issuer to meet all redemption requests, as the market for short-dated U.S. government obligations might not be sufficiently price stable. Market participants have increasingly shown concern about the actual underlying liquidity and reserves for dollar stablecoins such as USDT and USDC. If a stablecoin issuer were to fail to honor its redemption obligations, this could undermine public confidence in stablecoins and in digital assets more broadly, which could have a widespread impact on the cryptoeconomy, causing the prices of other stablecoins and digital assets to become more volatile.
Previous report
Political or economic crises may motivate large-scale sales of digital assets, which would result in a reduction in values and materially and adversely affect us.
Previous report
Cryptocurrencies, as an alternative to fiat currencies that are backed by central governments, are subject to supply and demand forces based upon the desirability of an alternative, decentralized means of buying and selling goods and services, and it is unclear how such supply and demand will be impacted by geopolitical events. For example, political or economic crises could motivate large-scale acquisitions or sales of digital assets either globally, regionally or locally. Large-scale sales of certain digital assets would result in a reduction in their value and could materially and adversely affect our investment and trading strategies, the value of our assets and our value.
Previous report
Due to the new and evolving nature of digital assets and the absence of comprehensive guidance with respect to digital assets, many significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of digital assets are uncertain. Our operations and dealings, in or in connection with digital assets, as well as transactions in digital assets generally, could be subject to adverse tax consequences in the United States, including as a result of development of the legal regimes surrounding digital assets, and our operating results, as well as the price of digital assets, could be adversely affected thereby.
Previous report
Many significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of digital assets (including with respect to the amount, timing and character of income recognition) are uncertain. In 2014, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) released a notice (the “Notice”) discussing certain aspects of digital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, in particular, stating that such digital assets (1) are “property,” (2) are not “currency” for purposes of the rules relating to foreign currency gain or loss and (3) may be held as a capital asset. In 2019, the IRS released a revenue ruling and a set of “Frequently Asked Questions” (the “Ruling & FAQs”) that provide some additional guidance, including guidance to the effect that, under certain circumstances, hard forks of digital assets are taxable events giving rise to ordinary income and guidance with respect to the determination of the tax basis of digital assets. The Notice and the Ruling & FAQs, however, do not address other significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of digital assets. We do not intend to request a ruling from the IRS on these issues, and we will take positions on these and other U.S. federal income tax issues relating to digital assets that we believe to be reasonable. There can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with the positions we take, and it is possible that the IRS will successfully challenge our positions.
Previous report
There can be no assurance that the IRS will not alter its position with respect to digital assets in the future or that a court would uphold the treatment set forth in the Notice and the Ruling & FAQs. It is also unclear what additional guidance on the treatment of digital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be issued in the future. Any such alteration of the current IRS positions or additional guidance could result in adverse tax consequences for us and could have an adverse effect on the value of digital assets. Because of the evolving nature of digital assets, it is not possible to predict potential future developments that may arise with respect to digital assets. Such developments may increase the uncertainty with respect to the treatment of digital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For example, the Notice addresses only digital assets that are “convertible virtual currency,” and it is conceivable that we will hold certain types of digital assets that are not within the scope of the Notice.
Previous report
On November 15, 2021, former President Biden signed into law the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (the “IIJA”). The IIJA implements a set of comprehensive tax information reporting rules that will apply to persons, including digital asset trading platforms and custodians, that regularly effect transfers of digital assets on behalf of other persons. In particular, these rules will require digital asset trading platforms and custodians to report certain digital asset transactions (including sales, exchanges and other transfers) effected on behalf of other persons on an annual return, in a manner similar to the current reporting rules for brokers that effect stock and other securities transactions on behalf of customers. In addition, the IIJA extends the reporting requirements for businesses that receive more than $10,000 in cash in a transaction (or related transactions) to transactions involving the receipt of digital assets with a fair market value of more than $10,000.
Previous report
In July 2024, the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury released final regulations to implement certain of these reporting rules (the “July final regulations”). The July final regulations’ definition of the term “broker” is broad and, in a number of respects, is unclear in scope, but generally requires custodial brokers and brokers acting as principals to perform information reporting and backup withholding functions. Under the July final regulations and a notice released contemporaneously by the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury, such reporting of cost basis information and backup withholding generally will apply in respect of transactions occurring on or after January 1, 2025, but certain transitional relief may be available for transactions occurring prior to January 1, 2026. The July final regulations do not address all aspects of the IIJA information reporting regime and their application is uncertain in a number of respects, including with respect to the collection and reporting of cost basis information for digital assets and the scope of transactions subject to reporting. In December 2024, the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued separate final regulations describing information reporting rules for non-custodial industry participants (the “December final regulations”), including the requirement to file information returns and furnish payee statements reporting gross proceeds on dispositions of digital assets effected for customers in certain sale or exchange transactions. The December final regulations were repealed on April 10, 2025, under the Congressional Review Act. Regulations repealed under the Congressional Review Act generally may not be reissued in substantially the same form, and a new rule that is substantially the same as such a rule may not be issued, unless the reissued or new rule is specifically authorized by a law subsequently enacted. The impact on the IIJA information reporting regime of the repeal of the December final regulations is unclear and there can be no assurance that the same or similar regulations will not be authorized by future law.
Previous report
The effects of the IIJA reporting regime and its application to us may depend in significant part on future Congressional action and further regulatory or other guidance from the IRS and could create significant compliance burdens and uncertainties for us and our customers, and could affect the price of digital assets, which could have an adverse effect on our business.
Previous report
The taxing authorities of certain states (i) have announced that they will follow the Notice with respect to the treatment of digital assets for state income tax purposes and/or (ii) have issued guidance exempting the purchase and/or sale of digital assets for fiat currency from state sales tax. It is unclear what further guidance on the treatment of digital assets for state tax purposes may be issued in the future. Any future guidance on the treatment of digital assets for state or local tax purposes could result in adverse tax consequences to us and could adversely affect the price of digital assets.
Previous report
The treatment of digital assets for tax purposes by non-U.S. jurisdictions may differ from the treatment of digital currency for U.S. federal, state or local tax purposes. It is possible, for example, that a non-U.S. jurisdiction would impose sales tax or value-added tax on purchases and sales of digital assets for fiat assets.
Previous report
Exposure to market volatility and token-specific risks could adversely affect the value of our digital asset holdings.
Previous report
Our business strategy involves acquiring and holding certain tokens, including, FLUID, INJ, LINK, AAVE, SYRUP, QNT, and ETHFI tokens as part of our effort to capture growth in the stablecoin infrastructure sector. While this strategy offers potential long-term upside, it also exposes us to the extreme price volatility and speculative nature of digital assets.
Previous report
The market for digital assets is highly unpredictable and has historically experienced significant and sudden declines in value. Stablecoin-related infrastructure tokens, such as those we intend to hold, may not move in parallel with the broader stablecoin market and can suffer material losses during economic downturns.
Previous report
Each token also presents its own set of risks. For example, FLUID may face downward pressure as previously restricted tokens become freely tradable, ETHFI may be sensitive to Ethereum network activity or operational costs and SYRUP’s link to real-world-asset collateral may make it more responsive to changes in broader financial conditions. These factors could materially reduce the value of our digital asset portfolio, limit liquidity, and adversely affect our financial results.
Previous report
Regulatory and compliance uncertainty in the U.S. and abroad could limit or delay our ability to execute our digital asset strategy.
Previous report
Because we are a public company investing in digital assets, our activities may attract heightened regulatory, accounting, and investor scrutiny. The legal framework governing stablecoins, decentralized finance, and tokenized instruments continues to evolve, and new legislation or rulemaking could impose additional compliance, registration or disclosure requirements on us or on the protocols in which we participate.
Previous report
In the United States, proposed stablecoin legislation and related guidance may alter the way certain tokens are classified or traded, which could affect our ability to hold or dispose of them. Outside the U.S., emerging frameworks, such as the MiCA and various regional restrictions on non-compliant stablecoins, could similarly affect liquidity and access to markets. If these or other regulatory developments restrict the issuance, trading, or use of tokens such as FLUID, INJ, LINK, AAVE, SYRUP, QNT, or ETHFI, we may be required to modify, delay, or curtail our investment activities. Any resulting limitations could materially and adversely impact our business strategy, reputation, or financial condition.
Previous report
Technological, operational and liquidity risks inherent in decentralized finance protocols may result in losses or impair our holdings.
Previous report
The tokens we intend to acquire are issued and maintained on decentralized protocols, which are inherently subject to technological failures, cybersecurity incidents and smart-contract vulnerabilities. Errors in code, malicious attacks or failures in the underlying networks could lead to the permanent loss of tokens, disruption of services or devaluation of affected assets. In addition, many of these tokens depend on cross-chain interoperability, data oracles, and automated liquidity mechanisms that could malfunction or be compromised. For example, interoperability or oracle failures in protocols like QNT or INJ could prevent users from transferring or valuing tokens accurately, resulting in market disruption or loss of confidence.
Previous report
Liquidity risks also exist. Some tokens may trade infrequently or on a limited number of exchanges, which could make it difficult for us to buy or sell positions at desired times or prices. Market stress or negative sentiment toward digital assets could further limit trading volumes and cause significant slippage in transactions. Although we intend to manage these risks through due diligence, diversified holdings, and staged investment execution, there can be no assurance that such measures will prevent losses or that our mitigation strategies will perform as intended.
Previous report
Under the Series I Certificate of Designations, we are required to redeem the shares of Series I Preferred Stock in equal quarterly installments, commencing on November 30, 2025. The Installment Amount (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations) due upon such redemption are payable, at the Company’s election, in cash at 107% of the applicable Installment Redemption Price (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time from the date of the applicable Installment Notice Date (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations) through the applicable Installment Date, and subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations, a holder of Series I Preferred Stock may require the Company to convert all or any part of the Installment Amount at a price to be mutually determined by the Company and such holder, which shall not be less than the Floor Price (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations).

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations), the Series I Preferred Stock accrue dividends at the rate of 15% per annum. In connection with a Triggering Event, each holder of Series I Preferred Stock will be able to require us to redeem in cash any or all of the holder’s Series I Preferred Stock at a premium set forth in the Series I Certificate of Designations. If such Triggering Event occurs, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected.
Current wording
The holders of the Series K Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends of 7% per annum (“Dividends”), compounded each calendar quarter, which are payable in arrears on the first trading day of each calendar quarter (each, a “Dividend Date”), with the first Dividend Date being July 1, 2026, in cash out of funds legally available therefor; provided that a holder of the Series K Preferred Stock and the Company may mutually agree to convert any Dividends into shares of Common Stock at a price to be mutually determined by the Company and such holder, which shall not be less than the lower of (x) $0.502, which was 20% of the “Minimum Price” (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date of the Purchase Agreement and (y) 20% of the “Minimum Price” (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the Stockholder Approval Date, in each case, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar events, or, in any case, such lower amount as permitted, from time to time, by the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Floor Price”). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Series K Certificate of Designations), the Series K Preferred Stock accrue dividends at the rate of 15% per annum. In connection with a Triggering Event, each holder of Series K Preferred Stock will be able to require us to redeem in cash any or all of the holder’s Series K Preferred Stock at a premium set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations. If such Triggering Event occurs, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected.

If we do not have sufficient cash resources to make these payments, we may need to raise additional equity or debt capital, and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful in doing so. If are unable to raise sufficient capital to meet our payment obligations, we may need to delay, reduce or eliminate certain research and development programs or other operations, sell some or all of our assets or merge with another entity. Our ability to make payments due to the holders of our Series I Preferred Stock using cash is also limited by the amount of cash we have on hand at the time such payments are due as well as certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

The Series I Preferred Stock and the Private Placement Warrants contain certain anti-dilution provisions, which may dilute the interests of our stockholders, depress the price of our common stock, and make it difficult for us to raise additional capital.

The Series K Preferred Stock and the Series K Warrants contain certain anti-dilution provisions, which may dilute the interests of our stockholders, depress the price of our common stock, and make it difficult for us to raise additional capital.
Previous wording
Certain events, for example, a Stock Combination Event (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations) may reduce the conversion price of the Series I Preferred Stock, which in turn may lead to further dilution to the holders of our Common Stock. The Private Placement Warrants additionally contain anti-dilution provisions applicable to the exercise price. If in the future, while any of the Private Placement Warrants are outstanding, we may be required upon the occurrence of certain events, to adjust the exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants, and simultaneously with any adjustment to the exercise price, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder for the adjusted number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants shall be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. Such adjustments can dilute the book value per share of Common Stock and reduce any proceeds we may receive from the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants. In addition, the perceived risk of dilution may cause our shareholders to be more inclined to sell their Common Stock, which may in turn depress the price of common shares regardless of our business performance. We may also find it more difficult to raise additional equity capital while any of the Private Placement Warrants and the Series I Preferred Stock remain outstanding.
