    The Company's patented or other technologies may infringe on other patents, which may expose it us to costly litigation.

    It is possible that the Company's patented or other technologies may infringe on patents or other rights owned by others. The Company may have to alter its products or processes, pay licensing fees, defend infringement actions or challenge the validity of the patents in court, or cease activities altogether because of patent rights of third parties, thereby causing additional unexpected costs and delays to the Company. Patent litigation is costly and time consuming, and the Company may not have sufficient resources to pursue such litigation. If the Company does not obtain a license under such patents, if it is found liable for infringement, or if it is not able to have such patents declared invalid, the Company may be liable for significant money damages, may encounter significant delays in bringing products to market or may be precluded from participating in the manufacture, use or sale of products or methods of treatment requiring such licenses.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    The Company's common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB Marketplace. Failure to develop or maintain a more active trading market may negatively affect the value of the Company's common stock, may deter some potential investors from purchasing the Company's common stock or other equity securities, and may make it difficult or impossible for stockholders to sell their shares of common stock.

    The Company's average daily volume of shares traded for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 1,085,874 and 1,268,973, respectively. Failure to develop or maintain an active trading market may negatively affect the value of the Company's common stock, may make some potential investors unwilling to purchase the Company's common stock or equity securities that are convertible into or exercisable for the Company's common stock, and may make it difficult or impossible for the Company's stockholders to sell their shares of common stock and recover any part of their investment.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    The Company's outstanding securities, the stock or other securities that it may become obligated to issue under existing agreements, and certain provisions of those securities, may cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing stockholders and may make it more difficult to raise additional equity capital.

    The Company had 455,494,238 shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The Company also had outstanding on that date dilutive securities consisting of preferred stock, restricted stock units, options, and warrants (collectively, "Common Stock Equivalents") that if they had been exercised and converted in full on December 31, 2025, would have resulted in the issuance of up to 81,927,379 additional shares of common stock. The issuance of shares upon the exercise of the Common Stock Equivalents may result in substantial dilution to each stockholder by reducing that stockholder's percentage ownership of the Company's total outstanding shares of common stock. The issuance of some or all those warrants and any exercise of those warrants will have the effect of further diluting the percentage ownership of the Company's other stockholders.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    Future sales of the Company's securities, including sales following exercise or conversion of derivative securities, or the perception that such sales may occur, may depress the price of common stock, and could encourage short sales.

    The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of the Company's shares in the public market, including shares issuable upon exercise of the Common Stock Equivalents, or the perception that such sales may occur, may adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock. Any decline in the price of the Company's common stock may encourage short sales, which could place further downward pressure on the price of the Company's common stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    The Company's stock price is likely to be volatile.

    For the year ended December 31, 2025, the reported low closing price for the Company's common stock was $0.055 per share, and the reported high closing price was $0.1634 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the reported low closing price for the Company's common stock was $0.049 per share, and the reported high closing price was $0.255 per share. There is generally significant volatility in the market prices, as well as limited liquidity, of securities of early-stage companies, particularly early-stage medical product companies. Contributing to this volatility are various events that can affect the Company's stock price in a positive or negative manner. These events include, but are not limited to: governmental approvals, refusals to approve, regulations or other actions; market acceptance and sales growth of the Company's products; litigation involving the Company or the Company's industry; developments or disputes concerning the Company's patents or other proprietary rights; changes in the structure of healthcare payment systems; departure of key personnel; future sales of its securities; fluctuations in its financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us; investors' general perception of us; and general economic, industry and market conditions. If any of these events occur, it could cause the Company's stock price to fall, and any of these events may cause the Company's stock price to be volatile.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5
    The Company's common stock is subject to the "Penny Stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in its securities is limited, which makes transactions in its common stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the Company's stock.

    The SEC has adopted Rule 3a51-1, which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks and that the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. To approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and must make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of the Company's common stock and may cause a decline in the market value of its stock. Disclosure also must be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6
    As a result of the Company issuing preferred stock, the rights of holders of the Company's common stock and the value of the Company's common stock may be adversely affected.

    The Company's Board of Directors is authorized to issue classes or series of preferred stock, without any action on the part of the stockholders. The Company's Board of Directors also has the power, without stockholder approval, to set the terms of any such classes or series of preferred stock, including voting rights, dividend rights and preferences over the common stock with respect to dividends or upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of its business, and other terms. The Company has issued preferred stock that has a preference over the common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, and with respect to voting rights. In accordance with that and with the issuance of preferred stock, our common stockholders voting rights have been diluted and it is possible that the rights of holders of the common stock or the value of the common stock have been adversely affected.

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.
