Monitor for details on the convertible debt restructuring and any impact on the company's going concern risk, which was flagged in the safe harbor statement.

Financial Impact
Approximately $15.0 million gross proceeds raised via issuance of 20M new shares (~19.7% dilution). Net proceeds after expenses will be used to repay/restructure convertible debt and for working capital.
Risk Factors
- Significant dilution of ~19.7% to existing shareholders
- Low offering price ($0.75/share) suggests distressed pricing and potential further downside
- Convertible debt maturity in November 2026 creates refinancing risk; proceeds may not be sufficient to fully address this
- Going concern risk explicitly referenced in the press release's safe harbor statement
- 60-day lock-up may create overhang and limit near-term price recovery
