The IPO pricing and size remain TBD, but the termination of the SPAC merger and the associated $8.0M obligation to Allegro (cash + stock) create a known cash use. Monitor the final IPO price and share count for dilution impact; the going concern qualification and material weaknesses in internal controls are significant risk factors for post-IPO valuation.
