Risk Change Over Time
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1Series B Preferred Stock conversion
During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, following stockholder approval, 51,789 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock converted into 51,789,000 shares of common stock. The 2,720 shares that remain outstanding are convertible into approximately 2.7 million additional shares of common stock, representing approximately 90% of our post-conversion outstanding common stock and substantially diluting our existing common stockholders.
- Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 2Contingent earn-out
The IPG sellers may earn up to $24,000,000 in additional consideration over three years, which would dilute our existing common stockholders.
- Debt & Financing - Risk 3Reliance on dilutive financing
We have funded our operations through highly dilutive equity and convertible debt financings, including the AHP Note (variable conversion price), the Hudson Global ELOC, and Section 3(a)(10) settlement share issuances. Continued reliance on such financings could result in substantial additional dilution.
- Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 4Integration risk
The integration of Flash and IPG into our operations is complex and subject to significant risks. Failure to successfully integrate could materially harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1AddedSeries B Preferred Stock conversion
During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, following stockholder approval, 51,789 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock converted into 51,789,000 shares of common stock. The 2,720 shares that remain outstanding are convertible into approximately 2.7 million additional shares of common stock, representing approximately 90% of our post-conversion outstanding common stock and substantially diluting our existing common stockholders.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2Following the Merger, former Flash stockholders are expected to own a minimum of 90% of the combined company, resulting in significant dilution to existing stockholders.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Flash stockholders received shares of UGRO common stock equal to 19.99% of the outstanding shares immediately prior to certain prior issuances, as well as shares of newly created non-voting convertible preferred stock that, upon stockholder approval of the conversion, would result in former Flash stockholders owning approximately 90% of the combined company on a fully-converted basis. This represents substantial dilution to the Company's existing stockholders.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3The Company changed its independent auditor in connection with the Merger, which may increase the risk of accounting errors or restatements.
On March 03, 2026, the Company dismissed Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC as its independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Suri and Co., Chartered Accountants of Chennai, India to audit the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The transition to a new auditor during a period of significant business transformation increases the risk of accounting errors, delays in financial reporting, or the need for restatements.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4We have a history of non-compliance with Nasdaq listing standards and may be unable to maintain our Nasdaq listing.
The Company has experienced multiple instances of non-compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, including the minimum bid price requirement, timely filing of periodic reports, minimum stockholders' equity requirement, and annual meeting requirement. While the Company regained compliance with these requirements as of March 2026, Nasdaq has placed the Company on a one-year Discretionary Panel Monitor under Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(A). Any future non-compliance could result in delisting, which would materially and adversely affect the liquidity and trading price of our common stock.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in the delisting of our Common Stock.
Although we regained compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements in March 2026, we are currently subject to a one-year Discretionary Panel Monitor. If we fail to maintain compliance during the monitoring period, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our common stock. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair stockholders' ability to sell or purchase our common stock when they wish to do so, as well as adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and obtain additional financing in the future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, the Timely Filing Requirement, or the Stockholders' Equity Requirement, or will otherwise be in compliance with other applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. If we fail to meet the conditions set forth in our compliance plan or if Nasdaq delists our securities from trading for any other reason, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including: - a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;- reduced liquidity with respect to our securities;- a determination that our common stock is a "penny stock" which will require brokers trading in our ordinary shares to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our ordinary shares;- a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for our company; and - a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6Our stock price could be extremely volatile. As a result, shareholders may not be able to re-sell their shares at or above the price they paid for them.
The market price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations. Volatility in the market price of our common stock, as well as general economic, market or political conditions, may prevent shareholders from being able to sell their shares at or above the price they paid for their shares and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our common stock. Shareholders may experience a decrease, which could be substantial, in the value of their stock, including decreases unrelated to our operating performance or prospects, and shareholders could lose part or all of their investment. The price of our common stock has been, and could continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors, including those described elsewhere in this Report and others such as: - our ability to generate sufficient revenues to achieve profitability and positive cash flow;- competition in our industry and our ability to compete effectively;- our ability to attract, recruit, retain and develop key personnel and qualified employees;- reliance on significant clients and third-party suppliers;- our ability to successfully identify and complete acquisitions and effectively integrate those acquisitions into our operations;- our actual or anticipated operating and financial results, including how those results vary from the expectations of management, securities analysts and investors;- changes in financial estimates or publication of research reports and recommendations by financial analysts or actions taken by rating agencies with respect to us or other industry participants;- developments in our business or operations or our industry sectors generally;- any future offerings by us of our common stock;- any coordinated trading activities or large derivative positions in our common stock, for example, a "short squeeze" (a short squeeze occurs when a number of investors take a short position in a stock and have to buy the borrowed securities to close out the position at a time that other short sellers of the same security also want to close out their positions, resulting in a surge in stock prices, i.e., demand is greater than supply for the stock sold short);- legislative or regulatory changes affecting our industry generally or our business and operations specifically;- the operating and stock price performance of companies that investors consider to be comparable to us;- announcements of strategic developments, acquisitions, restructurings, dispositions, financings and other material events by us or our competitors;- actions by our current shareholders, including future sales of common shares by existing shareholders, including our directors and executive officers;- proposed or final regulatory changes or developments;- anticipated or pending regulatory investigations, proceedings, or litigation that may involve or affect us; and - the other factors described under Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of this Report. In response to any one or more of these events, the market price of shares of our common stock could decrease significantly. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention and resources and could also require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments or to settle litigation.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7Shareholders may be diluted by future issuances of preferred stock or additional common stock in connection with our incentive plans, acquisitions or otherwise; future sales of such shares in the public market, or the expectations that such sales may occur, could lower our stock price.
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue shares of our common stock and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to our common stock for the consideration and on the terms and conditions established by our Board in its sole discretion. We could issue a significant number of shares of common stock in the future in connection with investments or acquisitions. Any of these issuances could dilute our existing shareholders, and such dilution could be significant. Moreover, such dilution could have a material adverse effect on the market price for the shares of our common stock. The future issuance of shares of preferred stock with voting rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of shares of our common stock, either by diluting the voting power of our common stock if the preferred stock votes together with the common stock as a single class, or by giving the holders of any such preferred stock the right to block an action on which they have a separate class vote, even if the action were approved by the holders of our shares of our common stock. The future issuance of shares of preferred stock with dividend or conversion rights, liquidation preferences or other economic terms favorable to the holders of preferred stock could adversely affect the market price for our common stock by making an investment in the common stock less attractive. For example, investors in the common stock may not wish to purchase common stock at a price above the conversion price of a series of convertible preferred stock because the holders of the preferred stock would effectively be entitled to purchase common stock at the lower conversion price, causing economic dilution to the holders of common stock.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 8If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they downgrade their recommendations regarding our common stock, its trading price and volume could decline.
We expect the trading market for our common stock to be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us, our business or our industry. If no additional securities or industry analysts commence coverage of our company, the trading price for our stock may be negatively impacted. If one or more of our covering analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline and our common stock to be less liquid. Moreover, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrades our stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, or if our results of operations do not meet their expectations, our stock price could decline.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 9Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may delay or prevent a take-over that may not be in the best interests of our shareholders.
Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of our shareholders may be called, and may delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt. In addition, our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences determined from time to time by our Board. None of our preferred shares are currently issued or outstanding. Our Board may, without shareholder approval, issue preferred shares with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock.
