    Risks associated with cash deposited at the Silkroad International Bank

    As of March 31, 2025, we have $14,404,155 in cash deposited with the Silkroad International Bank. The Central Bank of Djibouti (BCD) regulates the banking sector and has implemented measures to strengthen the financial system, such as increasing capital requirements and improving liquidity ratios. However, there is no specific mention of a formal deposit insurance system that protects depositors in case of bank failures. Therefore we do not believe there is any insurance for the cash deposited with the Silkroad International Bank. In addition, Silkroad International Bank has indicated that (1) The Central Bank of Djibouti (BCD) faces periodic shortages of foreign currency reserves, which may restrict our ability to convert local Djiboutian francs (DJF) into USD or other foreign currencies, repatriate funds to international subsidiaries or partners, and settle cross-border transactions in a timely manner, which could disrupt cash flow, delay vendor payments, and hinder operational flexibility; and (2) Djibouti maintains stringent foreign exchange regulations, including: - Approval Requirements: Large transfers or conversions may require BCD authorization, causing delays. - Prioritization of Essential Imports: The BCD may prioritize sectors like food and energy, limiting access to forex for non-essential businesses (e.g., consulting services). - Unclear Transfer Limits: Bank of Djibouti staff have indicated unspecified caps on outward transfers, increasing uncertainty. These restrictions may result in significant negative impact to our ability to operate and execute our business plan.

    Our ability to maintain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing requirements, including whether we are able to maintain the closing bid price of our common stock, could result in the delisting of our common stock.

    Our common stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq"). To maintain this listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other requirements. On July 7, 2023, the Company received a notification from Nasdaq stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules due to its failure to timely hold an annual meeting of shareholders for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, which is required to be held within twelve months of the Company's fiscal year end under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) and 5810(c)(2)(G). On October 19, 2023, the Company received a formal notification from the Nasdaq confirming that the Company had regained compliance with Listing Rule 5620(a), and that the matter is now closed. On July 13, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq stating that the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq's independent director and audit committee requirements under Nasdaq's Listing Rule 5605 following the resignation of Tieliang Liu from the Company's board of directors and audit committee effective July 3, 2023. Nasdaq advised the Company that in accordance with Nasdaq's Listing Rule 5605(c)(4), the Company has a cure period to regain compliance (1) until the earlier of the Company's next annual shareholders' meeting or July 3, 2024; or (2) if the next annual shareholders' meeting is held before January 2, 2024, then the Company must evidence compliance no later than January 2, 2024. In response to this notice, on July 31, 2023, the Company elected Mr. Zhongliang Xie as a Class II independent director to serve until the annual meeting of stockholders for the fiscal year 2023, to fill the vacancy on the Board resulting from the resignation of Mr. Tieliang Liu. The Board appointed Mr. Xie to serve as Chair of the Audit Committee, a member of the Compensation Committee and a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. On July 13, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq stating that the Company failed to regain compliance with respect to the minimum $1 bid price per share requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rules during the 180 calendar days given by Nasdaq for the Company to regain compliance, which ended on July 5, 2023. However, Nasdaq has determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until January 2, 2024, to regain compliance. On January 3, 2024, the Company received a notification from Nasdaq, notifying the Company of the determination to delist the Company's securities from Nasdaq because of the Company's failure to regain compliance with the $1 per share bid price requirement required for continued listing on the Nasdaq as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). On March 12, 2024, the Company received a formal notification from Nasdaq confirming that the Company had regained compliance with bid price requirement required for continued listing on the Nasdaq as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). There can be also no assurance that our stock price will meet the minimum bid price requirement or we will meet other requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq. If our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq and we are unable to list our common stock on another national securities exchange, we expect our common stock would be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we and our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including the limited availability of market quotations for our common stock; substantially decreased trading in our common stock; decreased market liquidity of our common stock as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws; an adverse effect on our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future on acceptable terms, if at all; potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, partners, and employees and fewer business development opportunities; and limited news and analyst coverage. Additionally, the market price of our common stock may decline further, and stockholders may lose some or all of their investment. For additional risks relating to our operations, see the section titled "Risk Factors" contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-3, filed with the SEC on September 9, 2024 and other filings we file with the SEC from time to time.

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.
