The filing documents a 4.99% beneficial position of 496,945 shares held through Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd., with voting and dispositive power exercised by Armistice Capital under an Investment Management Agreement. This places the holder below the 5% threshold that often triggers heightened disclosure or control signals.
Future filings could show increases or decreases; subsequent amendments would reveal any movement above the 5% reporting level.
Schedule 13G/A joint filing conforms to passive/manager reporting conventions.

"Armistice Capital exercises voting and investment power under an Investment Management Agreement"
An investment management agreement is a written contract that hires a professional to make buying, selling and strategy decisions for an investment account or fund, and sets out their duties, fees, risk limits, performance measures and reporting requirements. It matters to investors because the agreement determines who controls the money, how much the service costs, what risks are allowed, and how success or failure is measured—think of it as the service contract that defines expectations and remedies for a hired portfolio manager.
Schedule 13G/Aregulatory
"Amendment No. 1; JOINT FILING STATEMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 13d-1(k)"
A Schedule 13G/A is an amended public filing with the U.S. securities regulator that updates a previous Schedule 13G, disclosing when an individual or group holds a substantial (typically over 5%) stake in a company and is claiming a passive, non‑controlling intent. Investors monitor these updates because rising or falling holdings can signal changing confidence, potential future moves, or shifts in voting power — like watching a public ledger where large shareholders quietly adjust their positions.
beneficial ownershipregulatory
"Amount beneficially owned: 496,945; Percent of class: 4.99%"
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
