Edgemode, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Edgemode, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “Edgemode” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2022, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Company, have been omitted.
On March 20, 2020, shareholders owning a majority of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock amended the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Pierre Corp. to Fourth Wave Energy, Inc.
Effective January 31, 2022 (the “Effective Time”), the Company, FWAV Acquisition Corp., a Wyoming corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition Subsidiary”) and EdgeMode, a Wyoming corporation (“EdgeMode”) closed on the previously disclosed Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated December 2, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Subsidiary merged with and into EdgeMode (the “Merger” or “Transaction”), with EdgeMode remaining as the surviving entity after the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In the Merger, the shares of common stock, no par value per share, of EdgeMode issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, represent 80% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis (or 313,950,672 shares of common stock). Furthermore, pursuant to the terms of the Merger the Company’s sole shareholder of the Company’s preferred stock converted such shares into shares of common stock.
Joseph Isaacs, the Company’s sole officer
and director resigned as an executive officer and director. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Mr. Isaacs will provide services to the
Company in a consultancy capacity at a fee of $11,500 per month and has been issued a stock option grant to purchase up to
shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting in 90 days, at an exercise price of $ per share. The consulting agreement may
be terminated by the Company without cause after three months. In addition, Mr. Isaacs received a $
Simultaneously with the Merger, approximately
$
The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby EdgeMode was considered the accounting acquirer and became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger”, the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger has been replaced with the historical financial statements of EdgeMode prior to the reverse merger. The financial statements after completion of the reverse merger include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the combined company from and after the closing date of the reverse merger, with only certain aspects of pre-consummation stockholders’ equity remaining in the consolidated financial statements.
On June 3, 2022 the Company changed its name from Fourth Wave Energy Inc. to Edgemode, Inc.

NOTE 2 – Summary of significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.
Principals of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edgemode, Inc., the accounts of its 100% owned subsidiaries, EdgeMode and Edgemode Mine Co UK Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):
| · | Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. |
| · | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. |
| · | Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
The Company has no assets or liabilities valued using level 1, level 2, or level 3 inputs as of March 31, 2023.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts, as amended from time to time, with the mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable at any time by either party and the Company’s enforceable right to compensation only begins when the Company provides computing power to the mining pool operator. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator receives (less digital asset transaction fees to the mining pool operator which are recorded as a component of cost of revenues), for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The terms of the agreement provides that neither party can dispute settlement terms after thirty-five days following settlement. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm.
| 8 |
Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of providing such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contracts with mining pool operators. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value on the date received, which is not materially different than the fair value at contract inception or the time the Company has earned the award from the pools. The consideration is all variable. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur, the consideration is constrained until the mining pool operator successfully places a block (by being the first to solve an algorithm) and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.
Fair value of the cryptocurrency award received is determined using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency at the time of receipt. There is currently no specific definitive guidance under GAAP or alternative accounting framework for the accounting for cryptocurrencies recognized as revenue or held, and management has exercised significant judgment in determining the appropriate accounting treatment. In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the FASB, the Company may be required to change its policies, which could have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results from operations.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.
The Company accounts for equity-based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company has capitalized qualified direct costs
related to its efforts to raise capital through a sale of its common stock in a private offering. Deferred offering costs will be deferred
until the completion of the private offering, at which time they will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of
the offering proceeds. If the Company terminates the planned offering or there is a significant delay, all of the deferred offering costs
will be immediately written off to operating expenses. As of March 31, 2023, $
Long-Lived Assets – Cryptocurrencies
We account for our cryptocurrencies, intangible assets and long-term license agreement in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, and ASC Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Our cryptocurrencies are deemed to have an indefinite useful life; therefore amounts are not amortized, but rather are assessed for impairment as further discussed in our impairment policy. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining, or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
| 9 |
Note 3 - Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2023, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

NOTE 12 - Subsequent Events
On April 25, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Promissory Note Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company sold the Investor an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $60,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Company received gross proceeds of $60,000 in consideration of issuance of the Promissory Note.
In addition, on April 26, 2023, the Company entered into a Promissory Note Purchase Agreement with another Investor, pursuant to which the Company sold the Investor an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $57,502 Promissory Note. The Company received gross proceeds of $57,502 in consideration of issuance of the Promissory Note.
The Promissory Notes shall bear interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) and have a maturity date of May 25, 2023 and May 26, 2023, respectively. The Promissory Notes are convertible into common shares of the Company beginning on the sixth-month anniversary if not repaid by the maturity date. The Promissory Notes have a prepayment percentage of 130% for the period beginning on the issuance date and ending on the maturity date.
The Investors may in their option, at any time following the 180-day anniversary from the issuance date, as defined in the Promissory Notes, convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of the Promissory Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. If the Promissory Notes are not repaid on or prior to the maturity date, the conversion price will be $0.20 or 50% of the preceding five day VWAP on the six month anniversary, which is lower, subject to a floor conversion price of $0.01 per share. Furthermore, the Notes contain a “most favored nation” provision that allows each Investor to claim any preferable terms from any future securities, excluding certain exempt issuances.

| ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The following discussion and analysis compares our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (the “2022 Quarter”) with those for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “2023 Quarter”).
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains “forward-looking statements”. These statements include, among other things, statements regarding expanding our business and our liquidity as well as other statements regarding our future operations, financial condition and prospects, and business strategies. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "predicts," "projects," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, our ability to raise capital to buy crypto mining machines we have commitments to purchase, regulatory issues which effect our business model, and those discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and those discussed in other documents we file with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
We are an early-stage cryptocurrency mining company. We have established partnerships with third party hosting firms and Bitcoin mining facilities for the sole purpose of mining Bitcoin. We require financing to operate the mining of Bitcoin. We ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake. Our mining platform will be operating with the primary intent of accumulating Bitcoin.
We require significant financing to maintain our operations and commence Bitcoin mining. During late 2022 and early 2023 we have focused on securing a debt facility. We anticipate our first loan from this facility will be completed in May 2023, although we cannot provide any assurances we will receive any capital under this facility. This debt facility will be used to finance the purchase of BTC mining hardware and hosting contracts which, subject to financing, we anticipate will commence between May 2023 and December 2023.
We believe we have a purchase order in place to acquire significant high quality additional machines contingent on our ability to raise the funds to acquire such machines. Subject to receipt of financing, we have secured hosting contracts in the U.S and Egypt for over 540MW of hosting capacity, which will provide us the power supply to operate the 20 Exahash of hardware we have contracted to purchase.
There are no assurances we will receive adequate financing.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We discuss the material accounting policies that are critical in making the estimates and judgments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”. There has been no material change in critical accounting policies or estimates during the period covered by this report.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Results of operations
We had no revenues for the 2023 Quarter compared to $271,119 for the 2022 Quarter. The reason for the decrease was that we ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake.
We had no cost of revenues for the 2023 Quarter compared to $423,770 for the 2022 Quarter. The reason for the decrease was that we ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake.
Our operating expenses for the 2023 Quarter was $1,705,525 compared to $23,429,000, for the 2022 Quarter, a decrease of 93%. In the 2023 Quarter, the Company incurred stock-based compensation expense of $1,236,487 compared to $22,385,917 for the 2022 Quarter. The stock based compensation for both quarters was primarily related to vesting of the fair value of stock options.
Our other expenses for the 2023 Quarter was $72,486 compared to $44,840 for the 2022 Quarter. The reason for the increase was a result of the prepayment penalty on the redemption of the Preferred B shares.
We expect that our operating expenses will increase as we continue to develop our new mining operations and we devote additional resources toward our new technologies and business opportunities, promoting that growth, most notably reflected in anticipated increases in general overhead, salaries for personnel and technical resources, as well as increased costs associated with our SEC reporting obligations. However, as set forth elsewhere in this report, our ability to continue to develop our business and achieve our operational goals is dependent upon our ability to raise significant additional working capital. As the availability of this capital is unknown, we are unable to quantify at this time the expected increases in operating expenses in future periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2023 and May 15, 2023, the Company had approximately $14,000 and $110,000 of cash, respectively. Our liquidity was primarily derived from debt and equity investments from accredited investors and also from selling the crypto that we mined through September 2022. See “Subsequent Events” below. To grow the business and help fund operations for the next 12 months, the Company is seeking to raise $50 million in equity capital through private placements. We can provide no assurances that any such financings will be successful, nor will they be on terms acceptable to the Company.
If we fail to raise sufficient additional funds, we will be required to significantly scale back our plan of operations.
On January 25, 2023, we redeemed our outstanding Series B Preferred shares and paid to the holder a total of $270,549 which included the stated value of $212,500, $6,190 in accrued dividends and the early redemption premium of $51,859.
The Company has terminated the agreements for approximately $1.6 million of debt for equipment that the Company was using for mining and returned the equipment to the vendor to settle the outstanding liabilities. The Company is making no further payments against the potential balance. No confirmation has been received from 2CRSI and as such the balance remains outstanding on the Company’s balance sheet in the accompanying financial statements. Additionally, we have a significant amount funds committed to the purchase of new Bitcoin miners. We can provide no assurance that we will have the ability to meet these payment requirements or that we will be successful raising capital to meet our working capital requirements.

Subsequent Events
April 20, 2023 Promissory Notes
Effective April 20, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with an accredited investor, pursuant to which the Company sold the investor an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $60,760. The promissory note carries a one-time interest charge of 13% which was applied on the issuance date to the principal (22% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and has a maturity date of March 10, 2024. The promissory note included an original issue discount of $6,510 and transaction expenses of $4,250. We received gross proceeds of $54,250 in consideration of issuance of the promissory note. The promissory note requires that the Company make monthly payments for accrued interest and outstanding principal, which shall be paid in 9 payments each in the amount of $7,628.67 for total repayment to the investor of $68,658. The first payment is due May 15, 2023, with 8 subsequent payments each month thereafter. The Company has right to accelerate payments or prepay in full at any time with no prepayment penalty.
The investor may in its option, at any time following an event of default, as defined in the promissory note, convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of the promissory note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock at a conversion price per share equal to 71% of the lowest closing bid price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days prior to the date of conversion.
In addition, effective April 20, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the investor, pursuant to which the Company sold the investor an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $56,962. The maturity date of the convertible note is April 11, 2024. The convertible note shall bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum (22% upon the occurrence of an event of default), which interest shall not be payable until the convertible note becomes payable, whether at the maturity date or upon acceleration or by prepayment, as described below. The convertible note included an original issue discount of $2,712 and transaction expenses of $4,250. We received gross proceeds of $54,250 in consideration of issuance of the convertible note. The investor has the option to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of the convertible note, beginning on the date which is 180 days following the date of the convertible note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount (as defined below), each in respect of the remaining outstanding amount of the convertible note, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of the convertible note into common stock at the then-applicable conversion price. The conversion price for the convertible note is equal to 65% of the average of the lowest 3 closing bid prices for the common stock during the 15 trading day period prior to the conversion date. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of certain events of default, the convertible note will become immediately due and payable and the Company will pay the investor in full satisfaction of its obligations in the convertible note an amount equal to 150% of an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of the convertible note plus any interest accrued upon such event of default or prior events of default.
The convertible note may be prepaid until 180 days from the issuance date. If the convertible note is prepaid within 60 days of the issuance date, then the prepayment premium shall be 115% of the face amount plus any accrued interest, if prepaid after 60 days from the issuance date, but less than but less than 180 days from the issuance date, then the prepayment premium shall be 120% of the face amount plus any accrued interest.
April 25, 2023 Promissory Notes
On April 25, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with an accredited investor, pursuant to which the Company sold the investor an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $60,000. The Company received gross proceeds of $60,000 in consideration of issuance of the promissory note. In addition, on April 26, 2023, we entered into a promissory note purchase agreement with another investor, pursuant to which the Company sold the investor an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $57,502. The Company received gross proceeds of $57,502 in consideration of issuance of the promissory note. The promissory notes bear interest at a rate of 10% and have a maturity date of May 25, 2023 and May 26, 2023, respectively. The promissory notes are convertible into common shares of the Company beginning on the 6-month anniversary if not repaid by the maturity date. The promissory notes have a prepayment percentage of 130% for the period beginning on the issuance date and ending on the maturity date. The investors may in their option, at any time following the 180-day anniversary from the issuance date, as defined in the promissory notes, convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of the promissory notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock. If the promissory notes are not repaid on or prior to the maturity date, the conversion price will be $0.20 or 50% of the preceding five day VWAP on the six month anniversary, which is lower, subject to a floor conversion price of $0.01 per share. Furthermore, the notes contain a “most favored nation” provision that allows each investor to claim any preferable terms from any future securities, excluding certain exempt issuances.

| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Not applicable.
| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We are required to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting result from limited segregation of duties and limited multiple levels of review in the financial close process, along with a lack of well-established policies and procedures to identify, approve, and report related party transactions.
We will continue to monitor our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. We do not, however, expect that the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls will be remediated until such time as we have added additional personnel, including additional accounting and administrative staff, allowing improved internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, the Company may become a party to legal actions or proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. At March 31, 2023, there were no such actions or proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, that, if decided adversely to the Company’s interests, the Company believes would be material to its operation or cash flow.
| ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
While we attempt to identify, manage, and mitigate risks and uncertainties associated with our business to the extent practical under the circumstances, some level of risk and uncertainty will always be present. Our “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 describes some of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business, which we strongly encourage you to review. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, projected results, and future prospects. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
