Showing 25 of 33 transactions.

Open-market purchases and sales (Form 4 codes P and S) by officers, directors and 10% owners, by transaction date, from 2026-05-16 to 2026-09-13. Excludes option exercises, grants, gifts and tax withholding. Amended filings replace the originals; joint filings count once. Foreign private issuers do not file Form 4. Many insider sales are pre-scheduled (10b5-1 plans) and are not by themselves a sign of wrongdoing.

Verified excerpt

"The Company's current financial conditions and recurring losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern."

Quoted from the filing. Source

What this means

The filing states that substantial doubt exists about the company's ability to continue as a going concern: it may not have enough cash to last the next 12 months. Expect dilution, debt deals or worse. An auditor's going-concern paragraph is the strongest form of this warning.

Source: management disclosure in Form 10-Q (period 2026-06-30)

Why this score: quarterly (unaudited) disclosure
