Current report
If we fail to regain compliance with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, it could result in the delisting of our common stock and adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.
Current report
Our common stock is currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). NYSE rules require us to maintain a minimum trading price of $1.00 per share of our common stock (the “Bid Price Requirement”). On July 10, 2025, we received a notification letter from the NYSE that we are not in compliance with the Bid Price Requirement because the average closing price of our common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. We can regain compliance at any time within the six-month period following receipt of the NYSE’s notice, or until January 10, 2025 (the “Compliance Date”) if on the last trading day of any calendar month prior to the Compliance Date, we have (i) a closing share price of at least $1.00 and (ii) an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month. The notification received from the NYSE has no immediate effect on our NYSE listing. Our common stock will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE at this time, subject to our ongoing compliance with the NYSE’s other continued listing standards.
Current report
While we intend to consider all available alternatives, including but not limited to, a reverse stock split, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement, there can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy the Bid Price Requirement, or maintain continued compliance with the Bid Price Requirement, or the other listing requirements of the NYSE. If we are unable to meet these requirements, and our common stock were to be delisted from the NYSE, trading of our common stock most likely will be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the OTC Markets or in the “pink sheets.” Such a downgrading in our listing market may limit our ability to make a market in our common stock and may impact purchases or sales of our securities.

Previous report
Our obligation to redeem the 2025 Convertible Notes may not protect holders of those notes.
Previous report
Our obligation to offer to redeem the 2025 Convertible Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change will be triggered only by certain specified transactions. The term “fundamental change” is limited to certain specified transactions and may not include other events that might adversely affect our financial condition or the market value of the 2025 Convertible Notes or our common stock. Our obligation to offer to redeem the new notes upon a fundamental change would not necessarily afford holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes protection in the event of a highly leveraged transaction, reorganization, merger or similar transaction involving us.
Previous report
There is no existing public trading market for the 2025 Convertible Notes.
Previous report
No market for the 2025 Convertible Notes exists and may not develop. Even if a market develops, it may not persist. We do not intend to apply for listing of the 2025 Convertible Notes on any securities exchange or other market. The liquidity of any trading market and the trading price of the 2025 Convertible Notes may be adversely affected by changes in our financial performance or prospects and by changes in the financial performance of or prospects for companies in our industry generally.
Reworded paragraphs (2)
Previous wording
2025 Convertible Notes in cash, which we may not have available. Our revolving credit facility also contains covenants requiring us to satisfy certain financial covenants. These limitations, requirements and costs may affect our ability to obtain future financing, pursue attractive business opportunities, maintain flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in business conditions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Current wording
Our revolving credit facility limits our ability to, among other things: incur or guarantee additional debt; make certain investments and acquisitions; incur certain liens or permit them to exist; enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; merge or consolidate with another company; and transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of assets, including our cash.

Previous wording
We currently have options, RSUs and warrants outstanding that are convertible into shares of our common stock. In addition, our 2025 Convertible Notes are convertible based on outstanding principal balance and accrued interest. We also have the ability to issue equity awards that are convertible into shares of our common stock under our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan and under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, see Note 4— Debt, and Note 6 — Stock-Based Compensation Plans, to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We may issue additional shares of common stock or other equity securities of equal or senior rank in the future in connection with, among other things, future acquisitions or repayment of outstanding indebtedness, without stockholder approval, in a number of circumstances. Our issuance of additional shares of common stock or other equity securities of equal or senior rank would dilute our existing shareholders and may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

In addition, if our stock price does not meet the conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes, then we will have to repay the principal of the
