  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    We are a "smaller reporting company", and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.

    We are a "smaller reporting company" as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act. We may remain a smaller reporting company until we have a non-affiliate public float of $250 million or more or annual revenues of $100 million or more and a non-affiliate public float of $700 million or more, each as determined on an annual basis. For so long as we remain smaller reporting company, we are permitted and may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include: - an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, on the design and effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting; and - scaled reporting and disclosure requirements including about our executive compensation arrangements. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive if we rely on such exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive, as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the market price of our common stock may be more volatile.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    The loss of our "emerging growth company" status will increase certain reporting and compliance obligations and any failure to meet these expanded requirements could expose us to regulatory scrutiny or sanctions and could harm our reputation and adversely affect our stock price.

    As of June 30, 2026, the Company ceased to be an emerging growth company as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act but continues to qualify as a smaller reporting company under SEC rules. We will no longer be able to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards and will become subject to the same requirements as other public smaller reporting companies that are not emerging growth companies. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and the trading price of our common stock may be more volatile.

  • Innovation / R&D - Risk 1
    Clinical data obtained subsequent to the implementation of the clinical evidence module may not meet the required objectives, which could delay, limit or prevent additional regulatory clearance or approval.

    There can be no assurance that we will successfully complete any clinical evaluations necessary to receive regulatory clearance or approvals. The preliminary results that are indicative of the potential performance of the IFP products, data already obtained, or to be obtained in future, from clinical studies do not necessarily predict the results that will be obtained from later clinical evaluations. We market IFP products as screening devices. The clinical studies undertaken to date may not meet the requirements of certain regulatory bodies for us to market in those jurisdictions. The failure to adequately demonstrate the analytical performance characteristics of the device under development could delay or prevent regulatory clearance or approval of the device, which could prevent or result in delays to market launch and could materially harm our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to receive approval for any potential applications of our principal technology, or that we will receive regulatory clearances from targeted regions or countries.

  • Innovation / R&D - Risk 2
    We may be unable to complete required clinical evaluations, or we may experience significant delays in completing such clinical evaluations, which could prevent or significantly delay our targeted product launch timeframe and impair our business plan.

    The completion of any future clinical evaluations for the IFP products, or other studies that we may be required to undertake in the future for the IFP or other products based on the IFP System could be delayed, suspended or terminated for several reasons, including: - we may fail to or be unable to conduct the clinical evaluation in accordance with regulatory requirements;         - sites participating in the trial may drop out of the trial, which may require us to engage new sites for an expansion of the number of sites that are permitted to be involved in the trial;         - patients may not enroll in, remain in or complete, the clinical evaluation at the rates we expect; and         - clinical investigators may not perform our clinical evaluation on our anticipated schedule or consistent with the clinical evaluation protocol and good clinical practices. If our clinical evaluations are delayed it will take us longer to ultimately launch the IFP in certain jurisdictions and generate revenues. Moreover, our development costs will increase if we have material delays in our clinical evaluation or if we need to perform more or larger clinical evaluations than planned.

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.
