Share Price & Shareholder Rights2 | 25.0%
Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
Added
The market price of our common stock has been extremely volatile and may continue to be volatile due to numerous circumstances beyond our control.
The market price of our common stock has fluctuated, and may continue to fluctuate, widely, due to many factors, some of which may be beyond our control. These factors include, without limitation: - "short squeezes";- comments by securities analysts or other third parties, including blogs, articles, message boards and social and other media;- large stockholders exiting their position in our securities or an increase or decrease in the short interest in our securities;- actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial and operating results;- changes in foreign currency exchange rates;- the commencement, enrollment or results of our planned or future clinical trials of our product candidates or those of our competitors;- the success of competitive drugs or therapies;- regulatory or legal developments in the United States and other countries;- the success of competitive products or technologies;- developments or disputes concerning patent applications, issued patents or other proprietary rights;- the recruitment or departure of key personnel;- the level of expenses related to our product candidates or clinical development programs;- litigation matters, including amounts which may or may not be recoverable pursuant to our officer and director insurance policies, regulatory actions affecting us and the outcome thereof;- the results of our efforts to discover, develop, acquire or in-license additional product candidates;- actual or anticipated changes in estimates as to financial results, development timelines or recommendations by securities analysts;- disputes or other developments relating to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain patent protection for our technologies;- significant lawsuits, including patent or stockholder litigation;- variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us;- market conditions in our market sector;- general economic, political, and market conditions and overall fluctuations in the financial markets in the United States and abroad; and - investors' general perception of us and our business. Stock markets in general and our stock price in particular have recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies and our company. For example, the closing sale prices of our Common Stock from January 1, 2025 through August 10, 2025, ranged from a high of $1.53 per share (on January 7, 2025) to a low of $0.53 per share (on August 7, 2025). During that time, we have not experienced any material changes in our financial condition or results of operations that would explain such price volatility or trading volume; however, we have sold equity which was dilutive to existing stockholders. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our securities. Additionally, these and other external factors have caused and may continue to cause the market price and demand for our common stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent our stockholders from readily selling their shares of our common stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our common stock. In addition, if the stock price of our common stock continues to trade at its current level, it may imply as a negative indicator of the valuation of our intangible assets and our goodwill, which could result in an impairment for these assets.
Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
Added
Nasdaq may delist our securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors' ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.
On September 16, 2024, we received a written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") indicating that we are not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as our closing bid price for our common stock was below $1.00 per share for the last 30 consecutive business days. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have been granted a 180-calendar day compliance period, or until March 17, 2025, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. On March 18, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq approving an extension of an additional 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, or until September 15, 2025. If at any time during the additional compliance period, the bid price of our Common Stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive trading days, Nasdaq will provide us with written confirmation of compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and the matter will be closed. If we do not regain compliance within the additional compliance period or do not comply with the terms of the extension, Nasdaq will provide notice that our securities will be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. ? We intend to continuously monitor the closing bid price for our Common Stock and are in the process of considering various measures to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, including a stock split, if necessary. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, even if it maintains compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements.
Debt & Financing2 | 25.0%
Debt & Financing - Risk 1
Added
We may be in breach of certain debt covenants, and our failure to maintain compliance could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, ability to access capital, and business operations.
As of June 30, 2025, we did not meet one of the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. In the event covenants in the Credit Agreement are not met, interest shall accrue to at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) three percent (3%) over the Contract Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or (ii) the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable laws or regulations, until paid. The Company notified Callodine of its intention to utilize an equity cure to address the event of default as defined in the Credit Agreement. While we are in ongoing discussions with the lender regarding the terms of the Credit Agreement, there can be no assurance that in the future we will obtain any relief on favorable terms or at all. Moreover, our ability to remain in compliance with financial and other covenants in our existing or future credit agreements depends on our operating performance, which is subject to various risks and uncertainties. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows, raise capital on acceptable terms, or obtain further covenant waivers or amendments when needed, we may be forced to delay or curtail strategic initiatives, reduce expenditures, or pursue alternative financing arrangements that may be dilutive to shareholders or less favorable to us.
Debt & Financing - Risk 2
Added
We believe our current cash on hand will not be sufficient to fund our projected operating requirements for a period of one year from the issuance of these interim financial statements. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We believe that our current cash on hand will not be sufficient to fund our projected operating requirements for a period of one year from the issuance of our interim financial statements. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities or otherwise. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our investors may lose their entire investment in our securities. Until we can generate significant revenues, if ever, we expect to satisfy our future cash needs through debt or equity financing. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. If funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate research or development plans for, or commercialization efforts with respect to our products.
Legal & Regulatory

Regulation2 | 25.0%
Regulation - Risk 1
Added
Significant changes or developments in U.S. laws or policies, including changes in U.S. trade policies and tariffs and the reaction of other countries thereto, may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial statements.
Significant changes or developments in U.S. laws and policies, such as laws and policies surrounding international trade, foreign affairs, manufacturing and development and investment in the territories and countries where we or our customers operate, can materially adversely affect our business and financial statements. Tariffs imposed by the U.S. government, may increase the cost of certain raw materials and components used in our hardware. If these tariffs remain in place or are expanded, or if new trade restrictions are implemented, our manufacturing costs could increase, which could materially and adversely affect our margins and financial results. To date we have faced timeline extensions in certain projects due to tariff-related pressures, which impacted both hardware sourcing and partner-side execution. Some of our medical devices and hardware components are manufactured in China, and several potential partners have been similarly affected, resulting in prolonged decision-making cycles and implementation delays. Furthermore, changes in trade policy have increased uncertainty in our industry, and any escalation in trade tensions could disrupt our supply chain, delay production timelines, or require costly modifications to sourcing and logistics strategies. The extent and duration of the tariffs and the resulting impact on general economic conditions and on our business are uncertain and depend on various factors, such as negotiations between the U.S. and affected countries, the responses of other countries or regions, exemptions or exclusions that may be granted, availability and cost of alternative sources of supply, and demand for our service in affected markets.

Demand1 | 12.5%
Demand - Risk 1
Added
Currently, our revenues are concentrated with a major customer, and our revenues may decrease significantly if we were to lose our major customer.
Due to our limited operating history, we have a limited customer base and have depended on a major customer for a significant portion of our revenue. As of June 30, 2025, our major customer accounted for 16.4% of our accounts receivable balance and, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025, the customer accounted for 9.3 and 10.6%, respectively, of our revenue. If the customer were to terminate the agreement, or if we fail to adequately perform under the agreement, and if we are unable to diversify our customer base, our revenue could decline, and our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Economy & Political Environment - Risk 1
Added
Some of our principal executive officers and other significant operations are located in Israel, and, therefore, our results may be adversely affected by political, economic and military instability in Israel, including the multi front war Israel is currently facing.
Some of our executive officers and offices are located in Israel. In addition, most of our executive officers are residents of Israel, although the majority of our employees are located outside of Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its Arab neighbors. In October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel's southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Since the commencement of these events, there had been additional active hostilities against Israel, including Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis terrorist group which controls parts of Yemen, and Iran. Such clashes may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict. In April 2024 and October 2024, Iran launched direct attacks on Israel involving hundreds of drones and missiles and has threatened to continue to attack Israel. On June 13, 2025, in light of continued nuclear threats and intelligence assessments indicating imminent attacks, Israel launched a preemptive strike directly targeting military and nuclear infrastructure inside Iran aimed to disrupt Iran's capacity to coordinate or launch further hostilities against Israel, as well as disrupt its nuclear program. On June 21, 2025, the United States military conducted targeted air strikes against three nuclear sites within Iran and on June 23, 2025 Iran retaliated against U.S. interests in the region. On June 24, 2025, a ceasefire was implemented between Iran and Israel and, as of August 11, 2025, still remains in place. Nonetheless, hostilities between Iran and Israel and the United States may resume in the near future, which could create significant volatility in the global economy as well as disruptions to global supply chains. ? Furthermore, certain of our employees may be obligated to perform annual reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces and are subject to being called up for active military duty at any time. Many Israeli citizens who have served in the army are required to perform reserve duty until they reach the age of 40 or older, depending upon the nature of their military service. None of our executive officers have been called up for active military duty. ? Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky.
    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment.
      They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result.
        It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
          How do companies disclose their risk factors?
          Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process.
            Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”.
              Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report.
                According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
                  How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
                  Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing.
                    You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector.
                      Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements.
                        A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
