The following description of risk factors includes any material changes to, and supersedes the description of, risk factors associated with our business, financial condition and results of operations previously disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025 on Form 10-K. Our business, financial condition and operating results can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.

The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors may be important to understanding other statements in this Form 10-Q. The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” and Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-Q.

The issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of warrants during a period in which our registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-269693) (the “Prior Registration Statement”) was not current may not have been in compliance with Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which could give rise to rescission rights or other claims by holders of such shares.

Between March 1, 2024, the date on which the prospectus contained in our Prior Registration Statement was not current under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and May 15, 2026, the date on which we implemented corrective measures with our transfer agent, 8,633 shares of our common stock (the “Affected Warrant Shares”) were issued upon exercise of our warrants without a restrictive legend for aggregate cash proceeds of $112,229. The Affected Warrant Shares were issued inadvertently, as the Company had not identified at the time of such exercises that the prospectus contained in the Prior Registration Statement was no longer current under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Because the prospectus was not current at the time of the exercises described above, these issuances may not have been made in compliance with Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As a result, holders of the Affected Warrant Shares may have rescission rights under Section 12(a)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which would entitle such holders to tender the Affected Warrant Shares back to us in exchange for a refund of the exercise price paid, which would be an aggregate amount of approximately $112,229, plus statutory interest. In addition, we could become subject to regulatory action by the SEC or other regulatory authorities in connection with any such non-compliance.

We do not intend to conduct a rescission offer as it would be impractical and we believe that the Affected Warrant Shares may have been issued pursuant to valid exemptions from registration. Of the 8,633 Affected Warrant Shares that were issued without an effective registration statement, 7,600 shares were issued to a director, who is an accredited investor and continues to hold those shares which have now been re-classified as restricted securities. We believe that these shares were able to have been issued pursuant to an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in accordance with Rule 506 of Regulation D. The remaining 1,033 Affected Warrant Shares were issued upon the exercise of warrants held in “street name” through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). Because such warrants were held through DTC and its participating brokers and other financial intermediaries, we have no visibility into, and no practical means of ascertaining, the identity of the beneficial holders of those shares, and we have no mechanism to compel DTC or its participants to disclose such information. Accordingly, we are unable to identify the holders of the remaining 1,033 Affected Warrant Shares or to determine whether such shares continue to be held or have been sold. In addition, we believe that the issuance of these shares may have been exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Sections 4(a)(1) and 4(a)(2) thereof. We believe that the actual exercise of the warrants may not have constituted a public offering and any resales of such shares may have been exempt to the extent such warrant holders were neither an underwriter nor a dealer.

However, no assurance can be given that investors will not bring an action against us seeking the rescission of their paid exercise prices or that we will be able to successfully establish that all Affected Warrant Shares were issued to valid exemptions from registration.

Any potential Section 5 violation does not render the underlying shares void or legally defective. The 8,633 Affected Warrant Shares were duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable upon exercise of the warrants and are legally issued and outstanding shares of common stock, subject to the applicable transfer restrictions referenced above with respect to the shares held by our director.
