    The conversion issuance of outstanding shares of convertible notes or exercise preferred stock reduced the relative voting power of outstanding warrants holders of our common stock, and the conversion of such stock into shares of common stock could materially dilute our stockholders.

    Holders of our preferred stock are entitled to vote, on an as-converted basis, together with holders of our common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of our common stock. As a result, the issuance of the preferred stock effectively reduces the relative voting power of the holders of our common stock. In addition, the conversion of the preferred stock into shares of our common stock would dilute the ownership interest of existing holders of our common stock, and any sales in the public market of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. Sales by such holders of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    The price of our common stock may be volatile and fluctuate substantially.

    Our stock price has been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, some of which we cannot control. The stock market has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of companies. The market price for our common stock may be influenced by many factors, including, in addition to the factors discussed in this "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in this Form 10-K, the following: - our ability to successfully launch, and gain market acceptance of, our smart products and technologies;   - our reliance on product distribution arrangements with third parties;   - developments or disputes concerning patent applications, issued patents or other proprietary rights;   - the recruitment or departure of key personnel;   - the level of expenses related to our research and development, marketing efforts, strategic initiatives, or other areas;   - actual or anticipated changes in governmental regulation, including taxation and tariff policies;   - actual or anticipated changes in estimates as to financial results or recommendations by securities analysts;   - variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us;   - market conditions in the lighting, home decor and smart home sectors;   - conditions in the financial markets in general or changes in general economic conditions; and   - novel and unforeseen market forces and trading strategies. In addition, due to one or more of the foregoing factors in one or more future quarters, our results of operations may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. In the event any of the foregoing factors occur, the market price of our common stock could be highly volatile and may materially decline. Further, in the past, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against the company that issued the stock. If any of our stockholders brought a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs by defending the lawsuit. Such a lawsuit could also divert the time and attention of our management from our business, which could significantly harm our profitability and reputation.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    The conversion of outstanding convertible notes or preferred stock into shares of common stock could materially dilute our stockholders.

    As of March 18, 2026, we had $18.2 million aggregate principal amount of convertible notes outstanding, convertible into shares of our common stock at a weighted average conversion rate of $1.28 and $13.8 million invested in our shares of Preferred Series A, A-1 and A-2, convertible at a weighted average rate of $1.25 per share. The effective conversion price of the notes or preferred stock or exercise price of the warrants may be less than the market price of our common stock at the time of conversion or exercise If the entire principal amount of all the outstanding convertible notes and preferred shares is converted into shares of common stock, we would be required to issue an aggregate 25,679,364 shares of common stock. If we issue any or all of these shares, the ownership of our stockholders will be diluted.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    The outstanding preferred stock has rights, preferences and privileges that will not be held by, and will be preferential to, the rights of holders of our common stock, which could adversely affect the liquidity and financial condition of the Company, and may result in the interests of the holders of our outstanding preferred stock differing from those of the holders of our common stock.

    The Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock, and Series A-2 Preferred Stock rank on parity with each other with respect to liquidation preferences. Upon any dissolution, liquidation or winding up, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of such preferred stock will be entitled to receive distributions out of the Company's assets in an amount per share equal to $25.00 plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, whether capital or surplus, before any distributions shall be made on any shares of common stock. These dividend obligations to the holders of preferred stock could limit the Company's ability to obtain additional financing, which could have an adverse effect on its financial condition. The preferential rights described above could also result in divergent interests between the holders of shares of preferred stock and the holders of our common stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    If securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they publish negative evaluations of our stock, the price of our stock could decline.

    The trading market for our common stock relies in part on the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us or our business. If no or few analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price of our stock would likely decrease. Even if we do obtain analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts covering our business downgrade their evaluations of our stock, the price of our stock could decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover our stock, we could lose visibility in the market for our stock, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5
    Our executive officers, directors, principal stockholders, and their affiliates exercise considerable influence over us, which will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could delay or prevent a change in corporate control. In addition, our outstanding convertible preferred stock has voting rights, which reduce the relative voting power of holders of our common stock.

    Our executive officers, directors, 5% holders of our common stock and their affiliates beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 23.6% of our outstanding common stock, or 23.6% of our total voting power, as of March 18, 2026. In addition, holders of our Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock, which includes certain of our officers, are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis, together with holders of our common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of our common stock. As a result, the issuance of such preferred stock effectively reduced the relative voting power of the holders of our common stock. The holders of such preferred stock have approximately 7.1% of the Company's total voting power as of March 18, 2026. These stockholders, if they act together, will be able to influence our management and affairs and the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. These stockholders may have interests that are different from those of other investors, and the concentration of voting power among these stockholders may have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. In addition, this concentration of ownership might adversely affect the market price of our common stock by: - delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control of us;   - impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us; or   - discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6
    Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market by our stockholders could cause our share price to fall.

    Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We are unable to predict the effect that sales may have on the prevailing market price of our common stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7
    We are a smaller reporting company, and the reduced reporting requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.

    We currently qualify as a "smaller reporting company," which allows us to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not smaller reporting companies, including reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in this Form 10-K and our periodic reports and proxy statements. Decreased disclosures in our SEC filings due to our status as a smaller reporting company may make it harder for investors to analyze the results of operations and financial prospects. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these reduced reporting requirements. 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 our stock price may be more volatile.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 8
    Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and under Florida law could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of us and may affect the trading price of our common stock.

    As a Florida corporation, we are subject to certain provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act that have anti-takeover effects and may inhibit a non-negotiated merger or other business combination. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws also contain other provisions which could have anti-takeover effects. These provisions include, without limitation, the authority of our board of directors to designate and issue shares of preferred stock, including to fix the relative rights and preferences of the preferred stock without the need for any stockholder vote or approval; the requirement of a majority stockholder vote to remove directors from office or, if for cause, by a majority of the board of directors; and limitations on who may call special meetings of stockholders.

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.
