- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 10G is a highly volatile asset, and fluctuations in the price of 0G may influence our financial results and the market price of our listed securities.
Our financial results and the market price of our listed securities would be adversely affected, and our business and financial condition would be negatively impacted, if the price of 0G decreased substantially, including as a result of: decreased user and investor confidence in 0G;investment and trading activities such as (i) activities of highly active retail and institutional users, speculators and investors or (ii) actual or expected significant dispositions of 0G by large holders, including the expected liquidation of digital assets seized by governments or associated with entities that have filed for bankruptcy protection, or associated with tokens vested by the Zero Gravity core team;a decrease in the price of other digital assets, to the extent the decrease in the price of such other digital assets may cause a decrease in the price of 0G or adversely affect investor confidence in digital assets generally;changes in consumer preferences and the perceived value or prospects of 0G or the utility of Zero Gravity;negative publicity, media or social media coverage, or sentiment due to events in or relating to, or perception of, 0G, Zero Gravity or the broader digital assets industry;competition from other decentralized exchanges or digital assets that exhibit comparable or better speed, security, scalability or energy efficiency, or that feature other more favored characteristics that are backed by governments, including the U.S. government, or reserves of fiat currencies, or that represent ownership or security interests in physical assets;developments relating to the Zero Gravity blockchain ("0G Blockchain"), including (i) changes to the 0G Blockchain that impact its security, speed, scalability, usability or value, such as changes to the cryptographic security protocol underpinning the 0G Blockchain, changes to the maximum number of 0G Tokens outstanding, changes to the mutability of transactions, changes relating to the size of blockchain blocks, and similar changes; (ii) failures to make upgrades to the 0G Blockchain and the 0G interface to adapt to security, technological, legal or other challenges; and (iii) changes to the 0G Blockchain that introduce software bugs, security risks or other elements that adversely affect 0G;disruptions, failures, unavailability, or interruptions in services of venues for acquiring 0G;the filing for bankruptcy protection by, liquidation of, or market concerns about the financial viability of digital asset custodians, trading venues, lending platforms, investment funds, or other digital asset industry participants;regulatory, legislative, enforcement and judicial actions that adversely affect access to, functionality of or performance of Zero Gravity or associated products such as cryptocurrency perpetual futures, the price, ownership, transferability, trading volumes, legality or public perception of, 0G, Zero Gravity or other similar blockchains, or that adversely affect the operations of or otherwise prevent digital asset custodians, trading venues, lending platforms or other digital assets industry participants from (i) accessing 0G or Zero Gravity or associated products or (ii) operating in a manner that allows them to continue to deliver services to the digital assets industry;transaction congestion and fees associated with processing transactions on the Zero Gravity network;macroeconomic changes, such as changes in the level of interest rates and inflation, fiscal and monetary policies of governments, trade restrictions and fiat currency devaluations; andchanges in national and international economic and political conditions, including, without limitation, federal government policies, trade tariffs and trade disputes, and the adverse impacts attributable to global conflicts, including those between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East. Moreover, the price of our listed securities has been and is likely to continue to be volatile, and with the adoption of our new cryptocurrency treasury strategy, we expect to see additional volatility in our stock price. In addition, if investors view the value of our listed securities as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our 0G holdings, the price of 0G may significantly influence the market price of our listed securities. The price of 0G has been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2Holders of our Common Shares are subject to dilution resulting from the issuance of equity-based compensation by us.
We have awarded stock options and restricted common shares to our management and key employees to incentivize their performance and retention. Any additional equity grants and any exercise of existing warrants will cause our shareholders to be diluted and may negatively affect the price of the Common Shares.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3If we fail to meet applicable listing requirements, Nasdaq may delist our Common Shares from trading, in which case the liquidity and market price of our Common Shares could decline.
We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the continued listing standards of Nasdaq currently or in the future. Nasdaq imposes, among other requirements, continued listing standards including a minimum bid requirement and the requirement that the Audit Committee. If the Company fails to meet any of the applicable continued listing standards of the Nasdaq and we are unable to regain compliance, Nasdaq may make a determination to delist our Common Shares. Any delisting of our Common Shares would likely adversely affect the market liquidity and market price of our Common Shares and our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations or result in the loss of confidence by investors.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4The Company's directors and officers may have a conflict of interest in conducting their duties.
We may be subject to various potential conflicts of interest because of the fact that some of our officers and directors may be engaged in a range of business activities. In addition, our executive officers and directors may devote time to their outside business interests, so long as such activities do not materially or adversely interfere with their duties to the Company. In some cases, our executive officers and directors may have fiduciary obligations associated with these business interests that interfere with their ability to devote time to our business and affairs and that could adversely affect our operations. These business interests could require significant time and attention of our executive officers and directors.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5We are an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company, and our compliance with the reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies could make our Common Shares less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to raise capital as and when we need it.
We are an "emerging growth company", as defined in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, referred to as the JOBS Act, and we expect to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved and extended adoption period for accounting pronouncements. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may still qualify as a "smaller reporting company," which would allow us to continue to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in this Annual Report and our periodic reports and proxy statements. We cannot predict whether investors will find our Common Shares less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions. If some investors find our Common Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Common Shares and our stock price may be more volatile. Additionally, because of the exemptions from various reporting requirements provided to us as an emerging growth company, we may be less attractive to investors and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it. Investors may be unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry if they believe that our reporting is not as transparent as the reporting of other companies in our industry. If we are unable to raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6If the price of our Common Shares fluctuates, you could lose a significant part of your investment.
The market price of our Common Shares could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to, among other things, the risk factors described in this section of this Annual Report, and other factors beyond our control, such as fluctuations in the valuation of companies perceived by investors to be comparable to us. Furthermore, the stock markets have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rate changes or international currency fluctuations, may negatively affect the market price of our Common Shares. In the past, many companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business. Volatility in the market price of our Common Shares may prevent investors from being able to sell their shares at or above the public offering price. As a result, you may suffer a loss on your investment. GENERAL RISK FACTORS
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us, our share price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our Common Shares will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our operations. We do not have any control over these analysts and their research and reports. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our shares or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our share price would likely decline. In addition, if our operating results fail to meet the forecast of analysts, our share price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our shares could decrease, which might cause our share price and trading volume to decline.
