The commissions and offering costs borne by the Company were approximately $1.0 million. Following this issuance, the Company has no remaining capacity to sell the Company's common stock under the Second Equity Distribution Agreement. Nitesh Sharan resigned as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective April 3, 2026. Mr. James Hom, Chief Product Officer at SoundHound, will serve as the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer until his successor is chosen and qualified. On April 21, 2026, the Company announced and entered into a Merger Agreement (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire LivePerson, Inc. ("LivePerson") for approximately $42.8 million of Company Common Stock consideration payable to holders of Liveperson Common Stock.
