Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 59
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1Previously, our organizational documents were governed by BVI law but upon effectiveness of the Domestication, they are now governed by Delaware law.
Following the Domestication, our organizational documents have changed and are now governed by Delaware law rather than BVI law. These new organizational documents and Delaware law contain provisions that differ in some respects from those in our previous organizational documents and BVI law. For a more detailed description regarding our new organizational documents, please see "Description of Registrant's Securities" attached to this Report as Exhibit 4.1.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2Certain provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could make an acquisition of our company more difficult, limit attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove members of our Board or current management and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Following the Domestication, our Delaware certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain certain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control of our company. These provisions could also make it difficult for stockholders to elect directors that are not nominated by the current members of our Board or take other corporate actions, including effecting changes in our management. These provisions include: - a classified Board with three-year staggered terms, which could delay the ability of stockholders to change the membership of a majority of our Board;- the ability of our Board to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;- the exclusive right of our Board to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of our Board or the resignation, death or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our Board;- a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent (unless unanimous), which may force stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders;- the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by or at the direction of the Board, acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote the majority of the total number of directors then in office, or by the chairperson of the Board (who is required to call such meeting whenever requested in writing by stockholders representing at least 30% of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock), which could delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors;- the ability of our Board, by majority vote, to amend our bylaws, which may allow our Board to take additional actions to prevent an unsolicited takeover and inhibit the ability of an acquirer to amend our bylaws to facilitate an unsolicited takeover attempt;- advance notice procedures with which stockholders must comply to nominate candidates to our Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders' meeting, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer's own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us; and - while we have opted out of Section 203 of the DGCL, our Delaware certificate of incorporation a prohibition on engaging in any business combination (as defined in our Delaware certificate of incorporation) with an "interested stockholder" for a period of three years subsequent to the time that the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless (1) prior to such time, the Board approves the business combination or the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder, (2) upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owns at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock (with certain exclusions), or (3) at or after the person becomes an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by the Board and authorized by a vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder (our Delaware certificate of incorporation provides that the Liberty Investor, Cantor Fitzgerald L.P. and Emiliano Kargieman and any of their respective affiliates and associates will not constitute "interested stockholders" for purposes of these provisions). - These provisions may prohibit or deter large stockholders, in particular those owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, from merging or combining with us for a certain period of time.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3Our Delaware certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders' ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees.
Our Delaware certificate of incorporation provides that, with certain limited exceptions, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including any beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director or officer of the Company owed to us or our stockholders, creditors or other constituents, (iii) any action asserting a claim against us or any director or officer of the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our Delaware certificate of incorporation or our Delaware bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer of the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock is deemed to have received notice of and consented to the foregoing provisions. This choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and employees. Alternatively, if a court were to find this choice of forum provision inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our securities, the price and trading volume of our securities could decline.
The trading market for our securities may be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us or our business, market, or competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease such coverage or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our share price or trading volume to decline.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5Following a forfeiture event under the Merger Agreement, certain holders of our Class A common stock may be issued additional Class A common stock if the trading price of the Class A common stock then meets certain earn-out thresholds. Such issuance would dilute existing holders.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, certain of our stockholders forfeited for cancellation an aggregate of 310,127 shares of Class A common stock on May 12, 2022, and an equal number of Class A common stock were issued to certain other of our stockholders (the "Forfeiture Event"). However, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, following the Forfeiture Event, if at any time during the five year period following the Closing Date, the closing price of the Class A common stock is at or above $15.00 for ten (10) trading days (which need not be consecutive) over a twenty (20) trading day period, the stockholders who had forfeited shares in the Forfeiture Event will then receive a number of newly issued shares of Class A common stock equal to the number of shares that they had previously forfeited, or 310,127 shares of Class A common stock.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6The market price of our Class A common stock has been extremely volatile and may continue to be volatile due to numerous circumstances beyond our control.
Fluctuations in the price of our Class A common stock could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. The trading price of our Class A common stock has been, and may continue to be, volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our Class A common stock and our Class A common stock may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of our Class A common stock may not recover and may experience a further decline. Factors affecting the trading price of our Class A common stock may include: - actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial results or the financial results of companies perceived to be similar to it;- changes in the market's expectations about our operating results;- comments by securities analysts or other third parties, including blogs, articles, message boards and social and other media;- "short squeezes";- success of competitors;- our operating results failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;- changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us or the industries in which we operate;- operating and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;- our ability to market new and enhanced products and technologies on a timely basis;- changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;- our ability to meet compliance requirements;- commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving us;- changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;- the volume of Class A common stock available for public sale;- any major change in the Board or management;- sales of substantial amounts of Class A common stock by our directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and - general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism. Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and Nasdaq in particular, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of our Class A common stock, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for our Class A common stock and the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to us could depress our share price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of our Class A common stock also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7The dual class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting control with certain of our stockholders and limiting our other stockholders' ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of Class A common stock may view as beneficial.
The Class B common stock has a number of votes per share to equal the number of votes controlled by the Liberty Investor, while Class A common stock have one (1) vote per share. Our founder and Chief Executive Officer, Emiliano Kargieman, owns 10,582,641 shares of Class B common stock, which are entitled to 1.472467906 votes per share, granting him 100% of the voting power of the Class B common stock and [10.4%] of the voting power of our common stock as of March 14, 2026. This concentrated control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of the Company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of the Company, and might ultimately affect the market price of our Class A common stock. In addition, on March 8, 2023, pursuant to the Liberty Letter Agreement, and following the forfeiture of a certain number of shares of Class B common stock in connection with the Forfeiture Event under the Merger Agreement as described below, we approved an amendment to our governing documents in effect as of such date, pursuant to which the number of votes per share of Class B Ordinary Share was increased from 1.463844005 to 1.472467906 in order to make the aggregate number of votes attributable to holders of Class B common stock equal to the aggregate number of votes attributable to the Liberty Shares. This amendment had the impact of reinforcing the voting power and control of Mr. Kargieman, and may result in the continuation of the aforementioned risks to stockholders. We cannot predict whether the dual class structure of our common stock will result in a lower or more volatile market price of our Class A common stock or in adverse publicity or other adverse consequences. For example, certain index providers, such as FTSE Russell, have announced restrictions on including companies with multiple class share structures in certain of their indexes. In addition, several stockholder advisory firms have announced their opposition to the use of multiple class structures. As a result, the dual class structure of our common stock may cause stockholder advisory firms to publish negative commentary about our corporate governance practices or otherwise seek to cause us to change our capital structure. Any such exclusion from indices or any actions or publications by stockholder advisory firms critical of our corporate governance practices or capital structure could adversely affect the value and trading market of our Class A common stock. In addition, our Secured Convertible Notes are convertible in Class A common stock at a rate of 833.33 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Secured Convertible Notes, subject to certain customary anti-dilution provisions. As of December 31, 2025, the conversion of the Secured Convertible Notes would result in the holder holding approximately 16.7% of our outstanding Class A common stock and 14.9% of the voting power of our common stock. Along with the significant voting power held by Mr. Kargieman, this would result in a significant concentration in the voting power of our common stock, meaning that other stockholders may have little influence in determining the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, and which could have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of the Company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of the Company, and might ultimately affect the market price of our Class A common stock.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 8The sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the price for our Class A common stock.
The market price of our Class A common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares in the market or the perception that these sales could occur. These sales, or the possibility of these sales, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. We have recently completed several capital raises to fund our operations and constellation expansion, which have resulted in significant dilution to existing stockholders, including: - a registered direct offering of Class A common stock that generated gross proceeds of approximately $35 million in January 2026;- an underwritten public offering of Class A common stock in October 2025 that generated gross proceeds of approximately $90 million; and - a registered direct offering of Class A common stock in April 2025 that generated gross proceeds of approximately $20 million. - We have also filed registration statements with the SEC registering the resale of up to 25,000,000 shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the conversion of our Secured Convertible Notes. All of these shares currently remain unsold but represent a significant potential for future dilution. - Additionally, we maintained an effective shelf registration statement for the sale of up to an aggregate of $150,000,000 of Class A common stock to allow us to conduct future offerings as capital needs arise. As of the date of this Report, this shelf registration statement has been fully utilized. The issuance or resale, or the expected or potential issuance or resale, of a substantial number of shares of our Class A common stock-whether through the conversion of existing debt or future opportunistic capital raises-could adversely affect the market price for our Class A common stock and make it more difficult for you to sell your shares at times and prices that you feel are appropriate. Any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences, and privileges more favorable than those of our Class A common stock and may result in dilution of owners of our Class A common stock. We and, indirectly, our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and preferred stock (if any), and lenders with respect to other borrowings, will receive a distribution of our available assets prior to the holders of our Class A common stock. Additional equity offerings may dilute the holdings of our existing stockholders or reduce the market price of our Class A common stock, or both. Any preferred stock we issue in the future could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability to make a dividend distribution to the holders of our Class A common stock. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of our future offerings. Thus, holders of our Class A common stock bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our Class A common stock and diluting their ownership interest in us.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 9There can be no assurance that our Class A common stock or the Warrants will remain listed on Nasdaq, or that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.
If Nasdaq chooses to delist us for failure to meet their listing standards, we and our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including: - a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;- reduced liquidity for our securities;- a determination that our Class A common stock are a "penny stock," which will require brokers trading in our Class A common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;- a limited amount or absence of news and analyst coverage; and - a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 10We are an "emerging growth company" and a "smaller reporting company" and, as a result of the reduced disclosure and governance requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies, our Class A common stock following the Domestication may be less attractive to investors.
We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 ("Jobs Act") and a "smaller reporting company" as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, and we are taking advantage of some of the exemptions from reporting requirements that are available to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company and/or a smaller reporting company. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Class A common stock that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, or (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of any fiscal year for so long as either: (i) the market value of our common equity securities held by non-affiliates does not equal or exceed $250 million as of the prior June 30th; or (ii) our annual revenues did not equal or exceed $100 million during such completed fiscal year and our common equity securities held by non-affiliates does not equal or exceed $700 million as of the prior June 30th. We cannot predict if investors will find our Class A common stock less attractive because we do and will rely on the accommodations and exemptions available to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies. If some investors find our Class A common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Class A common stock and our share price may be more volatile.
