There is no assurance as to the outcome of the planned appeal.

Current report
Global conditions, dislocations in the financial markets, or inflation could adversely impact our business. In addition, the global macroeconomic environment has been and may continue to be negatively affected by, among other things, instability in global economic markets, increased U.S. trade tariffs and trade disputes with other countries, instability in global credit markets, supply chain weaknesses, instability in the geopolitical environment, political tensions, and foreign governmental debt concerns. Such challenges have caused, and may continue to cause, uncertainty and instability in local economies and in global financial markets, which may adversely affect our business.

Previous wording
We could lose our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market if we do not meet Nasdaq stockholders’ equity requirement, if the closing bid price of our common stock does not increase as required, or if we fail to obtain shareholder ratification of the July 2024 Offering. The loss of our Nasdaq listing would in all likelihood make our common stock significantly less liquid and adversely affect its value.
Current wording
We could lose our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market which would in all likelihood make our common stock significantly less liquid, adversely affect its value, and make raising additional capital far more difficult.
Previous wording
In the third quarter 2024, the Company received three letters from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) Staff notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”), 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Rule”) or any of the alternative requirements in Listing Rule 5550(b), and 5635(d) (the “Shareholder Approval Rule”). As a result, the shares of the Company’s common stock are subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. On October 1, 2024, the Company appealed the Staff’s determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) and, on November 4, 2024, the Company was informed that the Panel granted the Company a formal extension to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Current wording
We may be forced to amend, delay, limit, reduce or terminate the scope of our development programs and/or limit or cease our operations if we are unable to obtain additional funding. As of March 31, 2025, we had cash of approximately $11.6 million. We do not believe that this cash will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital requirements beyond some time in the fourth quarter 2025. We will need to raise additional capital to continue as a going concern. The failure to obtain sufficient additional funds on commercially acceptable terms to fund our operations and satisfy our obligations to creditors may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and jeopardize our ability to continue operations in the near-term. We will likely need to consider additional cost reduction strategies, which may include, among others, amending, delaying, limiting, reducing, or terminating our development programs, and we may need to seek an in-court or out-of-court restructuring of our liabilities. In the event of such future restructuring activities, holders of our common stock and other securities will likely suffer a total loss of their investment.
Rearranged previous paragraphs (2)
Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
Upon a delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market, our stock would likely be traded in the over-the-counter inter-dealer quotation system, more commonly known as the OTC. OTC transactions involve risks in addition to those associated with transactions in securities traded on the securities exchanges, such as the Nasdaq Capital Market, or, together, Exchange-listed stocks. Many OTC stocks trade less frequently and in smaller volumes than Exchange-listed stocks. Accordingly, our stock would be less liquid than it would be otherwise. Also, prices of OTC stocks are often more volatile than Exchange-listed stocks. Additionally, institutional investors are usually prohibited from investing in OTC stocks, and it would likely be more challenging to raise capital when needed.
