    Risks Related to Our Defaulted Promissory Notes and Potential Dilution

    As of June 30, 2026, three promissory notes issued in connection with our September 30, 2025 Business Combination remained outstanding and in default of their respective payment obligations, with aggregate outstanding principal of approximately $3.5 million and accrued default interest of approximately $335,908. Each note accrues default interest at a rate of 15.0% per annum until the applicable event of default is cured. Two of the three notes contain conversion provisions that, upon default, permit the respective note holder to receive shares of our common stock — in one case, up to 5,000,000 shares (subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership cap), and in another case, 650,000 shares at a fixed conversion ratio. The third note, held by our Sponsor (a related party), requires us to reserve shares of our common stock to satisfy the unpaid balance, also subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership cap. If any of these note holders elects to enforce its conversion or share-delivery rights, the issuance of common stock to satisfy these obligations could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. We are currently in discussions with each of the note holders to extend the maturity dates and address the defaults, but there can be no assurance that these discussions will result in favorable terms or any agreement at all. If we are unable to negotiate forbearance, extension, or repayment terms acceptable to the note holders, they may exercise their available remedies, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and stockholders’ equity.

    Risks Related to the Notice of Delist Determination Letter

    On July 16, 2026, the Company received a letter (the “Determination Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Staff”) notifying the Company that the Staff had determined to delist the Company’s common stock and warrants (the “Listed Securities”) from the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company timely requested an appeal of the Staff’s determination before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). The timely filing of the appeal request stays any suspension or delisting action with respect to the Listed Securities pending the Panel’s decision; however, the trading halt that has been in effect since October 1, 2025 in connection with the CSRC’s review of the Company’s U.S. listing will remain in place notwithstanding the appeal. There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing or that the Company will be able to satisfy any conditions that the Panel may impose. If the Company’s securities are ultimately delisted from Nasdaq, such delisting could constitute an event of default or trigger acceleration provisions under our outstanding promissory notes and other contractual arrangements. In addition, the continued trading halt and the Determination Letter, together with the matters described in the immediately following risk factor relating to the CSRC Administrative Penalty Decision, may adversely affect our reputation, our relationships with customers, suppliers, and lenders, and our overall business, financial condition, and prospects.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    Warrants can be converted into common stock, which increases the number of shares available for resale in the open market and results in diluted shareholder equity.

    Under the terms of the warrant agreements governing these securities, a total of 2,457,000 warrants may be exercised. The outstanding warrants represent approximately 4.7% of our currently outstanding common shares. The exercise price of the warrants is set at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. If exercised, such warrants will trigger additional common share issuance, resulting in diluted equity for existing shareholders and increased share availability for resale in the open market. Significant sell-offs of these warrants or the possibility of their exercise may adversely affect the market price of common shares. However, there is no guarantee that these warrants will remain in the money before maturity, and they may become worthless upon expiration.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    The sale of our securities by our holders may result in a significant decline in the market price of our securities, even if our business operations are performing well.

    Under the Lock-up Agreement executed during the merger between CFI and Iron Horse, major shareholders of CFI and relevant securities holders will be subject to restrictions on selling any CFI common shares they receive or hold upon agreement, with these restrictions expiring six months after the agreement takes effect. Upon expiration of the lock-up period and upon either the effectiveness of CFI's registration statements submitted under the Registration Rights Agreement or compliance with Rule 144 requirements, certain CFI shareholders may sell substantial quantities of CFI common shares through public markets or private negotiations. Such transactions could exacerbate stock price volatility or exert significant downward pressure on CFI's common stock prices. The trading prices of our common shares and warrants may experience significant fluctuations, which could be influenced by various factors beyond our control, including but not limited to: - Actual or expected fluctuations in our financial condition or operating performance;- Differences between our financial performance and the expectations of securities analysts;- Changes in our projected operating and financial performance;- Changes in laws and regulations affecting our business, customers, suppliers, or our industry;- We or our competitors announce the launch of new products and services;- Our ability to continuously innovate and promptly bring products to market;- We are involved in actual or potential litigation or regulatory investigations;- Negative publicity about us, our products or our industry;- Changes in senior management or key personnel;- We or our competitors announce new investments, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, or joint ventures;- Our sale of securities by us, our shareholders, or warrant holders, and expectations regarding the lifting of lock-up periods;- Overall economic, political, regulatory, industry and market conditions;- Natural disasters or major catastrophic events; and - Other events or factors, including those caused by war, terrorist incidents, natural disasters, pandemics or responses to these events. These and other factors may cause significant fluctuations in the market prices and demand for our common stock and warrants, which could limit or prevent investors from easily selling their shares and potentially negatively impact the liquidity of our common stock and warrants in other ways.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may impose additional disclosure requirements and strengthen regulatory scrutiny for companies with significant business operations in China, which could increase our compliance costs, subject us to additional disclosure requirements, and/or suspend or terminate our future securities offerings, thereby making financing more difficult.

    On July 30, 2021, in response to recent regulatory developments in China and measures taken by the Chinese government, the Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a statement requiring SEC staff to seek additional disclosures from overseas issuers related to companies operating within China before the registration statements of overseas issuers take effect. Therefore, the issuance of our securities may need to comply with additional disclosure requirements and reviews imposed by the SEC or other U.S. regulatory authorities on companies conducting business within China, which could increase our compliance costs, subject us to additional disclosure requirements, and/or result in the suspension or termination of our future securities offerings, thereby making financing more difficult. The Chinese government has recently issued new policies affecting specific industries, and there is no guarantee that regulations or policies that may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating performance will not be introduced in the future. In addition, if China adopts stricter standards in specific areas such as corporate social responsibility or environmental protection, we may incur higher compliance costs or face additional restrictions in operations.

    Should Nasdaq ultimately decide to delist our securities, we may face shareholder lawsuits, which would have a significant adverse impact on our operations.

    Should Nasdaq ultimately decide to delist our securities, this action is likely to negatively impact their price performance and impair shareholders' ability to trade them. In the event of delisting, we cannot guarantee that any measures taken to meet listing requirements will result in securities relisting, stabilize market prices, enhance liquidity, or prevent future violations of Nasdaq's listing standards. Furthermore, if our securities are not listed on NASDAQ or delisted from NASDAQ for any reason and are traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board-an automated quotation system for stock trading between non-national stock exchanges-our securities may face greater liquidity and pricing constraints compared to listings on NASDAQ or other national stock exchanges. Should our securities experience liquidity shortages, shareholders may struggle to trade their holdings unless market conditions can be restored. Conversely, if investors are unable to trade our securities, this could severely impact our capacity to raise additional capital. If any of our shareholders initiate legal proceedings against us, we may incur substantial costs in litigation defense. Such lawsuits may also divert the time and attention of our management, preventing them from focusing on our business operations, thereby severely impairing our business performance, profitability, and reputation.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5
    As of October 1, 2025, in accordance with Nasdaq's oral notice, our securities have been suspended from trading on Nasdaq. As of the date of this annual report, our securities have not resumed trading on Nasdaq, which may have a material adverse impact on the value or liquidity of investors holding our securities.

    As disclosed in our Form 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on October 6, 2025, following Nasdaq's listing on October 1, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that it had received notification from China Securities Regulatory Commission ("CSRC") officials stating that Nasdaq's CSRC review process for the Company's U.S. listing had not been completed. Consequently, Nasdaq suspended trading of the Company's common stock and warrants while requiring clarification on these matters (the "Trading Halt"). The Company asserts that it has fulfilled its obligations to the CSRC and has obtained legal opinions from its Chinese securities legal counsel regarding this matter. Additional documentation has been submitted to Nasdaq. However, as of the date of this annual report, the Trading Halt remains in effect. If the Trading Halt persists, or if our securities are ultimately delisted from Nasdaq, our investors may face significant adverse consequences due to their holdings, including: - Limited market quotes for our securities;- Designating our common shares as "underweight stocks" will require brokers dealing in our shares to comply with stricter regulations and may result in reduced trading activity in our secondary securities market. - No longer considered as "valuable securities", as detailed below;- Limited news and analytical coverage; and - Reduced capacity to issue additional securities or secure additional financing in the future. The National Securities Market Improvement Act of 1996, a federal statute, prohibits or takes precedence over state regulations regarding the sale of certain securities (referred to as "regulated securities"). While states are prioritarily deprived of regulatory authority over securities sales, this federal law does allow states to investigate companies when fraud is suspected. If fraudulent activities are identified, states may impose oversight or prohibit the sale of regulated securities under specific circumstances. Although no state has utilized these powers to restrict securities issued by blank check companies (with the exception of Idaho), securities regulators in some states maintain negative views toward such entities and may employ or threaten to employ these authorities to hinder the sale of blank check company securities within their jurisdictions. Furthermore, if we delist from NASDAQ, our securities will cease to be regulated securities and will fall under the jurisdiction of the states where we offer them.

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.
