Note 7 – Stockholders’ (deficit) equity

 

The Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock is 250,000,000 with a par value of $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 43,180,509 and 38,486,219 shares of Common Stock issued, respectively.

 

PIPE Investment Shares

 

In connection with the Merger, on September 14, 2023, UPTD entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with each of Plentiful Limited, a Samoan limited company (“Plentiful Limited”) and Lianhe World Limited (“Lianhe World,” together with Plentiful Limited, collectively, the “PIPE Investors”). Concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued 500,000 shares of Common Stock to each of Plentiful Limited and Lianhe World, respectively, for aggregate proceeds of $10,000,000.

 

Within thirty days following the date of the Closing, each PIPE Investor will also be entitled to receive 704,819 shares of Common Stock. Within five days following the date that is 24 months following the Closing (the “24-Month Date”), if the VWAP of Common Stock for the fifteen trading days prior to the 24-Month Date (the “24-Month Date VWAP”) is less than $8.30, then each of them will be entitled to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) (A) 8.30 minus (B) the 24-Month Date VWAP multiplied by (ii) (A) the number of Shares held by the Investor on the 24-Month Date minus (B) the number of Shares acquired by the Investor following the Closing divided by 10.00. In accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreements, the maximum number of shares to be issued at the 24-Month Date totals to 709,770.

On January 22, 2024, the Company completed the issuance of an additional 704,819 shares of Common Stock to each of the two PIPE Investors. The shares were issued as part of the consideration that each PIPE Investor was entitled to receive thirty days following the date of the closing of the Business Combination. In addition, in December 2025, the Company had issued 205,349 additional shares to the PIPE Investors in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreements as the Company’s common stock for the fifteen (15) trading days prior to September 29, 2025 was less than $8.30, and based on the VWAP from September 8 to September 26, 2025.

 

Stock purchase agreement shares

 

-2025 Securities Purchase Agreements

 

From May 2025 to September 2025, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with three accredited investors. Each Securities Purchase Agreement includes a contingent value protection feature pursuant to which the Company may be required to issue additional shares of Common Stock (the “True-Up Shares”) if the market price of the Company’s stock on the 12-month anniversary of the agreement is below $1.50 per share. In 2025, the Company received gross proceeds of $2.4 million in connection with the executed Securities Purchase Agreements and issued 1,600,000 shares of its Common Stock to the investors, and incurred issuance costs of $117,473 related to the transaction. 

 

The True-Up feature was determined to require bifurcation from the host equity contract and is accounted for separately as a derivative liability under ASC 815. The derivative liability is initially measured at fair value on the issuance date and is remeasured at fair value at each subsequent reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized as general and administrative expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. In accordance with the Securities Purchase Agreements executed between May 2025 to September 2025, the maximum number of True-Up Shares totals to 735,857.

 

Change in fair value recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $108,627. The Company did not recognize any changes in fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as no derivative liabilities existed.

 

-January 2026 Registered Direct Offering and Private Placement

 

On January 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with a healthcare-focused institutional investor (the “January 2026 SPA”). On January 6, 2026, the Company consummated a registered direct offering (“RDO”) and a concurrent private placement pursuant to the January 2026 SPA, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $8.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses of approximately $0.8 million.

 

The Company issued 4,063,290 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.00001 per warrant share. The Company also issued common stock warrants (“Common Stock Warrants”) exercisable for up to 7,594,935 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.39 per warrant share, expiring on January 6, 2031.

 

Warrants

 

-Public Warrants

 

In connection with the reverse recapitalization, the Company has assumed 2,214,993 Public Warrants outstanding. Public Warrants met the criteria for equity classification.

Each whole Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one whole share of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its Warrants only for a whole number of shares of Common Stock. This means that only a whole Warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder. No fractional Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade. The Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 29, 2028, which is five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 business days, after the closing of the initial Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, and within 60 business days following its initial Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. No Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s Common Stock is at the time of any exercise of a Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Warrants who exercise their Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event it so elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but it will be required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

 

Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the Warrants for redemption:

 

  in whole and not in part;

 

  at a price of $0.01 per Warrant;

 

  upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and

 

  if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

The Company accounted for the 2,214,993 Public Warrants assumed from the merger as equity instruments in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, none of the Public Warrants had been exercised.

 

-Pre-Funded Warrants and Common Stock Warrants

 

In connection with the January 2026 SPA, the Company issued Pre-Funded Warrants to the investor to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.00001 per warrant share for a cash consideration of $1,579,990. In addition, the Company also issued common stock warrants (the “Common Stock Warrants”) exercisable for up to 7,594,935 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.39 per warrant share, expiring on January 6, 2031.

 

The Company accounted for the Pre-Funded Warrants and Common Stock Warrants as equity instruments in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 631,000 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised, resulting in the issuance of 631,000 shares of Common Stock. As of March 31, 2026, 369,000 Pre-Funded Warrants remained unexercised.

 

As of March 31, 2026, none of the Common Stock Warrants had been exercised.

Stock Repurchase Program

 

On January 30, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing that its board of directors has authorized share repurchases of up to $1.0 million of its common stock.

As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company has repurchased a cumulative total of 515,281 shares of its Common Stock, and approximately $0.4 million remained available for future repurchases under the authorization.
