Current report

The terms of our Loan and Security Agreement with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P. require us to meet certain operating covenants and place certain restrictions on our operating and financial flexibility. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, the terms of any new debt could further restrict our ability to operate our business.

Current report

On August 4, 2025, we, and our wholly owned subsidiary, NURO, each as borrowers, entered the Loan and Security Agreement with Avenue, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and as lender, that is secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets, including a negative pledge on intellectual property, subject to limited exceptions, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement.

Current report

The Loan and Security Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. We could in the future incur additional indebtedness beyond our borrowings under the Loan and Security Agreement. If we raise any additional debt financing, the terms of such additional debt could further restrict our operating and financial flexibility. These restrictions may include, among other things, limitations on the incurrence of additional debt and specific restrictions on the use of our assets, as well as prohibitions on our ability to create liens, pay dividends, redeem capital stock or make investments. If we default under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, Avenue may accelerate all of our repayment obligations and take control of our pledged assets, potentially requiring us to renegotiate our agreement on terms less favorable to us or to immediately cease operations. Further, if we were to be liquidated, Avenue’s rights to repayment would be senior to the rights of the holders of our common stock. Avenue could declare an event of default upon the occurrence of any circumstance or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined under the Loan and Security Agreement). Any declaration by Avenue of an event of default could significantly harm our business and prospects and could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Current report

Our existing or future debt could have significant adverse consequences, including:

Current report

In order to satisfy our current and future debt service obligations, we will be required to raise funds from external sources. We may be unable to arrange for additional financing to pay the amounts due under our existing debt. Funds from external sources may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Our failure to satisfy our current and future debt obligations could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks of doing business through e-commerce marketplaces.

Current report

We have recently launched a direct-to-consumer wellness offering, Truvaga, and we remain subject to risks associated with the commercialization of our Truvaga product offering, including those associated with selling Truvaga through e-commerce marketplaces. Selling products through large, well established e-commerce marketplaces presents several risks including inventory management challenges, broader competition, potential account suspensions, and the risk of losing control over brand identity, value perception, and customer relationships. While we intend to monitor commercialization efforts through these marketplaces, there can be no assurance that we can respond adequately to reviews on public forums that may cause a loss of control over our brand identity, value perception and customer relationships, and any inability to respond adequately may negatively impact our financial results. In addition, our business may be adversely affected if online marketplaces, such as has been the case recently with Amazon, remove our products on the basis that they are classified as medical devices requiring FDA clearance or registration. Such removal can significantly disrupt our sales channels, reduce product visibility, and impair revenue generation, particularly if online sales constitute a substantial portion of our sales and marketing strategy. While we intend to appeal Amazon’s decision, the appeals process is uncertain, time-consuming, and may not result in reinstatement. Prolonged or permanent removal could lead to inventory write-downs, loss of market share, reputational harm, and increased compliance costs. Additionally, similar actions by other e-commerce platforms or heightened regulatory scrutiny could further restrict market access, adversely impacting our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Current report

Our failure to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing standards could result in a delisting of our common stock, which could negatively impact the market price and liquidity of our common stock and our ability to access the capital markets.

Current report

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b), in order to maintain our listing on Nasdaq, we are required to continue to meet one of the following continued listing standards: (i) net income from continuing operations (in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the three most recently completed fiscal years) of at least $500,000 (the “Net Income Standard”); (ii) market value of listed securities of at least $35 million (the “Market Value Standard”); or (iii) stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million (the “Equity Standard”).

Current report

As of June 30, 2025, our stockholders’ equity was less than $2.5 million and therefore less than the Equity Standard. As a result, if Nasdaq determines that we do not meet either of the Net Income Standard or the Market Value Standard, we may receive a deficiency letter from Nasdaq. Upon receipt of such deficiency letter, we will have a period of time to resolve such deficiency and, if necessary, will have the opportunity to present a plan to regain compliance.

Current report

There can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept our plan to regain compliance or that we will meet the Equity Standard during any compliance period, if one is provided to us. If our common stock is de-listed from Nasdaq, it will have material negative impact on the actual and potential liquidity of our securities, as well as material negative impact on our ability to raise future capital.

Current report

If, for any reason, Nasdaq should delist our common stock from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange or take action to restore our compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our stockholders:
