Milestone Pharmaceuticals, as a smaller reporting company under SEC rules, benefits from reduced disclosure requirements, but this decision could make its securities less appealing to certain investors. With a public float under $700 million or annual revenues below $100 million, the company opts for scaled-back SEC filing obligations, including reduced executive compensation disclosures. Moreover, as a non-accelerated filer, Milestone is exempt from auditor attestation under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, potentially leading to less investor confidence in their financial controls. This reliance on exemptions may result in a less active trading market and increased share price volatility, posing a risk to investor attractiveness and market stability.

The average MIST stock price target is $13.00, implying 540.39% upside potential.
