Previous wording

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company currently does not generate revenue sufficient to offset operating costs and anticipates such shortfalls to continue as the Company has modified its strategy to a metrics-driven approach through a sustainable and scalable business model, via a digital lead generation and re-engagement strategy. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had net working capital of approximately $2.9 million, primarily due to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $1.2 million. The Company’s principal source of liquidity as of June 30, 2024, consisted of approximately $1.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, and $1.4 million of accounts receivable. Based on its available cash resources, the Company will not have sufficient cash on hand to fund its current operations for more than twelve months from the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes in the viability of its business strategy and in its ability to raise additional funds, however, there can be no assurance to that effect. Management’s plans are assuming the merger with Vyome and the asset purchase with Biorad, announced in July of 2024 occur.
