An active, liquid trading market for our securities may not be sustained.

Previous report

There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain an active trading market for our common stock on the NYSE or any other exchange. On April 16, 2025, we were notified by the NYSE that we are not in compliance with Rule 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of our common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of our common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the period allowed to regain compliance, subject to our compliance with other listing standards. We informed the NYSE that we intend to cure the deficiency and to return to compliance with the NYSE continued listing requirements. If an active market for our securities is not maintained, or if we fail to satisfy the continued listing standards of the NYSE for any reason and our securities are delisted, it may be difficult for our security holders to sell their securities without depressing the market price for our securities, or at all. Further, if we are unable to cure the stock price deficiency within the cure period and our common stock is delisted, Hudson has the right to return to us any remaining amount of Put Shares associated with such Put, and the Purchase Price with respect to such Put shall be reduced accordingly (as such terms are defined in the Hudson Equity Purchase Agreement). Further, an inactive trading market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock, attract and motivate employees through equity incentive awards.
