Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Note 9 — Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

We may from time to time be subject to various legal or administrative claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. As of the date hereof, except as set forth below, we are not a party to any material legal or administrative proceedings nor are there any proceedings in which any of our directors, executive officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest. Litigation or any other legal or administrative proceeding, regardless of the outcome, is likely to result in substantial cost and diversion of our resources, including our management’s time and attention.

On May 10, 2024, the Company was the subject of a defamatory article / blog post. In connection with this post, one of the Company’s customers paused its connection to the Company while the allegations were investigated. This customer

reconnected the Company on May 22, 2024 and volumes had resumed but not yet at the levels experienced prior to the pause in May 2024 which has created a significant disruption in the Company's business. During 2025, the Company worked with its partners to achieve prior volume levels but was unable to achieve historical volumes for the year. In May 2024, the Company, as plaintiff, filed a lawsuit against the author of the defamatory article. On March 5, 2025, the United States District Court for the District of Maryland denied the defendant’s motion to dismiss in its entirety. On March 9, 2026, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss counterclaims but granted the defendant time to amend their counterclaim, which the defendant chose not to amend. The Company will continue to vigorously pursue its claims and rights and any defenses against counterclaims. The Company cannot make any predictions about the final outcome of this litigation matter or the timing thereof.

On May 23, 2024, an alleged stockholder, purportedly on behalf of the persons or entities who purchased or acquired publicly traded securities of the Company between April 2023 and March 2024, filed a putative class action against the Company, certain of our officers and directors, and other defendants in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, alleging violations of federal securities laws related to alleged false or misleading disclosures made by the Company in its public filings. On July 9, 2024, another alleged stockholder filed a similar securities class action against the Company, certain of our officers and directors, also in the Southern District of Texas. The two actions have been consolidated. Each of these complaints seeks unspecified damages, plus costs, fees, and attorneys’ fees. On August 7, 2025, the district court granted the Company's motion to dismiss in full and with prejudice. The lead plaintiff has since appealed that dismissal and has filed an opening brief which was due to the court on November 3, 2025. The Company filed a response brief on January 2, 2026. The lead plaintiff filed a reply brief on February 6, 2026. The Company now awaits the Court's decision about whether to set the case for oral argument. The Company cannot make any predictions about the final outcome of this matter or the timing thereof but believes that plaintiffs’ claims lack merit and intends to vigorously defend these lawsuits.

Contingent Liability for Exit Fee

As further described in Note 3 — Long-Term Debt, the Seventh Amendment, Ninth Amendment and Tenth Amendment established an Exit Fee of up to $35.0 million due to Lafayette Square upon the redemption in full of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with reductions in the amount of the Exit Fee outstanding for any amounts of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock redeemed, converted or exchanged. Since it was established, the Exit Fee has been reduced by (1) $4.3 million for proceeds received by Lafayette upon exchanges pursuant to the Tenth Amendment during the year ended December 31, 2025 and (2) $3.6 million for the loss on Exit Fee recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025 for the difference between the face value of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock exchanged and the proceeds received by Lafayette upon the exchange. As of March 31, 2026, the maximum potential amount of the Exit Fee that could be payable is $27.1 million.

The timing and occurrence of a full redemption are uncertain and may be indefinite. Accordingly, management has concluded that payment of the maximum potential amount of the Exit Fee as of March 31, 2026 is not probable as of the reporting date and that the ultimate amount of any such payment cannot be reasonably estimated. As a result, no additional liability has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company will reassess the likelihood and amount of any Exit Fee obligation in future periods as facts and circumstances change.

Continuation Capital Settlement Agreement

As described in Note 4 — Stockholders’ Deficit and Stock-Based Compensation, on November 20, 2025, the Company entered into the Settlement Agreement with Continuation Capital, pursuant to which we agreed to issue the Exchange Shares in exchange for the release of certain claims held by Continuation Capital related to third party vendor payables separately assigned by the Company to Continuation Capital in the amount of $3 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, $0.8 million has been paid to third party vendors and 152,041 shares have been issued pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. From the date the Settlement Agreement was executed through March 31, 2026, $1.6 million has been paid to third party vendors and 204,332 shares have been issued pursuant to the Settlement Agreement.
