Substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
“Because the Company's existing cash balance and anticipated cash flows cannot satisfy its current debt and ongoing obligations, combined with the uncommitted nature of the Company's financing plans, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date that these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.”View the 10-Q filed Aug 14, 2026
