The dilutive offering at a discount signals near-term selling pressure. Monitor the stock for continued weakness as the 10.8M shares hit the market. The Arkansas Bromine Project narrative provides a long-term catalyst but execution risk is high given the $220M remaining capex and negative free cash flow. Watch for any insider selling after the 60-day lock-up expires.
