Forward Guidance
The company's working capital may not be sufficient to cover operating costs, indicating substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. While the company has secured a line of credit, is reevaluating its pricing model, and has completed equity financing, there is no guarantee that these plans will be sufficient to meet capital demands or that cash flow from operations will be adequate.
Positive Outlook
- Secured a line of credit for its Vicon brand to fund operations, with available capacity of $903,102 as of December 31, 2024.
- Continually reevaluating pricing model on Vicon brand to improve margins and introducing new innovative products to grow revenues.
- Raised $9,039,959 in net proceeds through May 2024 equity financing and anticipates up to $10 million when Series B warrants are exercised.
- Effected 60:1 and 35:1 reverse stock splits to remain trading on Nasdaq Capital Markets and improve ability to raise capital.
- Company believes that if successful, these plans would be sufficient to meet capital demands for at least the next twelve months.
Challenges Ahead
- Working capital may not be sufficient to cover operating costs, raising substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
