Net proceeds from SEPA approximately $4.1 million Aggregate net cash received from SEPA Shares issued to Yorkville
Standby Equity Purchase Agreement financial
"in connection with the Company’s Standby Equity Purchase Agreement dated October 24, 2025"
A standby equity purchase agreement is a contract in which an investor or group agrees to buy a company’s newly issued shares on demand, giving the company a ready source of cash it can tap when needed. Think of it like a line of credit made with stock instead of a loan: it provides financial backup but can increase the number of shares outstanding, diluting existing owners and affecting per‑share value, so investors watch these deals for their impact on ownership and earnings per share.
Convertible Note financial
"issued to Yorkville a Convertible Note in the principal amount of $4.0 million"
A convertible note is a type of loan that a company gets from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. It matters because it helps startups raise money quickly without setting a fixed value for the company right away, making it easier to grow and attract investors.
original issue discount financial
"which was issued with an original issue discount of 7.0%"
Original issue discount (OID) is the difference between a debt security’s face value and the lower price at which it is first sold, treated as additional interest that accrues over the life of the instrument. For investors it matters because OID raises the effective yield and changes taxable income and the holding’s cost basis over time — think of buying a $100 voucher for $90 and recognizing the $10 gain as earned interest as the voucher approaches maturity.
broker non-votes regulatory
"VOTES FOR | | AUTHORITY WITHHELD | | BROKER NON-VOTES Christer Rosén"
Broker non-votes occur when a brokerage firm is unable to vote on a shareholder’s behalf during a company election or decision because the shareholder has not given specific voting instructions, and the broker is not allowed or chooses not to vote on certain matters. They are important because they can affect the outcome of votes, especially when the results are close, by effectively reducing the total number of votes cast.
record date regulatory
"At the close of business on June 15, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

As previously disclosed, in connection with the Company’s Standby Equity Purchase Agreement dated October 24, 2025 (the “SEPA”) with YA II PN, Ltd. (“Yorkville”), pursuant to which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell to Yorkville, from time to time, up to $20.0 million of shares of its common stock (the “SEPA Shares”), Yorkville provided the Company with advance funds of $6.0 million funded in two tranches (each a “Prepaid Advance”), in exchange for its issuance of convertible promissory notes (each, a “Convertible Note” and collectively, the “Convertible Notes”). Each Prepaid Advance is expected to be repaid through the issuance of SEPA Shares at a price per share determined in accordance with the terms of the SEPA, which is generally based on a discount to the prevailing market price of our common stock during a specified pricing period, unless earlier repaid in cash at our option, subject to the terms of the SEPA. Accordingly, the number of SEPA Shares issuable upon settlement of any Prepaid Advance will depend on the market price of our common stock at the time of such settlement and cannot be determined at the time such Prepaid Advance is made or thereafter until settlement. On October 27, 2025, the Company received the first tranche of the Prepaid Advance in the amount of $3,720,000 and issued to Yorkville a Convertible Note in the principal amount of $4.0 million (the “First Convertible Note”), which was issued with an original issue discount of 7.0%. The First Convertible Note is initially convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $1.50 per share. Subsequently, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions, on December 23, 2025 the Company received the second tranche of the Prepaid Advance in the amount of $1,860,000 and issued to Yorkville a Convertible Note in the principal amount of $2.0 million (the “Second Convertible Note” and, together with the First Convertible Note, the “Convertible Notes”), which was issued with an original issue discount of 7.0% and is initially convertible into shares of our common stock at a fixed conversion price of $1.50 per share.

 

As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, approximately $1.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes remains outstanding. The Company has issued and sold approximately 12.5 million SEPA Shares to Yorkville pursuant to the SEPA, including SEPA Shares issued in connection with the settlement of Prepaid Advances and upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, for aggregate net proceeds to the Company of approximately $4.1 million. We may continue to issue SEPA Shares to Yorkville pursuant to the SEPA, including in connection with any outstanding or future Prepaid Advances or conversions of Convertible Notes, subject to the terms and conditions of the SEPA.

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any shares of common stock, nor shall there be any sale of shares of common stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
