Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 26, 2025, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market based on the information provided in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires that companies listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market with a market value of listed securities of less than $35,000,000 and annual net income of less than $500,000 maintain stockholders' equity of at least $2,500,000.
On December 12, 2025, the Company completed a best efforts public offering (the "Offering") of an aggregate of (i) 2,603,331 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company, (ii) 8,063,336 pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 8,063,336 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) 10,666,667 Series F warrants to purchase up to 10,666,667 shares of Common Stock, for a gross cash proceeds of approximately $8.0 million.
As a result of the Offering and as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company believes its stockholders' equity is in excess of the minimum $2,500,000 Nasdaq requirement. Nasdaq will continue to monitor the Company's ongoing compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement and, if at the time of its next periodic report the Company does not evidence compliance, it may be subject to delisting.
