Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On December 8, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Company intends to commence, on December 8, 2025, a tender offer to purchase for cash up to 6,192,990 shares of its Common Stock at a purchase price of $5.20 per sshare, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest for an aggregate purchase price of up to $32,203,548.

 

The press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell securities. The tender offer described in this Current Report on Form 8-K and in Exhibit 99.1 has not yet commenced. The solicitation of offers to buy shares of Common Stock will only be made pursuant to an Offer to Purchase and other related documents that the Company will send to its stockholders once the tender offer has commenced. Stockholders of the Company are urged to read these materials when they become available, as well as any other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available, carefully and in their entirety because they will contain important information, including the terms and conditions of the tender offer. Those materials will be distributed by the Company to the Company’s stockholders at no expense to them.

 

Upon commencement of the tender offer, the Company will file the Offer to Purchase and other related documents with the SEC, and, when available, investors may obtain them for free from the SEC at its website (www.sec.gov) or free of charge from the Company as described in Exhibit 99.1.
