PROSPECTUS

cbdMD, Inc.

3,234,000 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the potential resale from time to time by C/M Capital Master Fund, LP (the “Selling Shareholder”) of up to 3,234,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The shares of common stock to which this prospectus relates consist of shares that have been or may be issued by us to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2025, as amended by and between us and the Selling Shareholder (the “Purchase Agreement”), establishing an equity line of credit. Such shares of our common stock include (i) up to 3,154,000 shares of common stock, or the Purchase Shares, that we may elect, in our sole discretion, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, to issue and sell to the Selling Shareholder, from time to time from and after the Commencement Date (as defined below) under the Purchase Agreement, and subject to applicable stock exchange rules and (ii) up to 80,000 shares of common stock, or the Commitment Shares, of which 40,000 shares have been issued as of the date of this prospectus to the Selling Shareholder in connection with related issuances and sales of Purchase Shares as consideration for the Selling Shareholder’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement.

The actual number of shares of our common stock issuable will vary depending on the then-current market price of shares of our common stock sold to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, but will not exceed the number set forth in the preceding paragraphs unless we file an additional registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”), with the SEC, and we obtain the approval of the issuance of shares of common stock by our shareholders in accordance with the applicable stock exchange rules.

Under the applicable rules of the NYSE American (“NYSE American”), in no event may we issue to the Selling Shareholder shares of our common stock representing 20% or more of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the date of the Purchase Agreement, unless (i) we obtain the approval of the issuance of such shares by our shareholders in accordance with the applicable stock exchange rules or (ii) the average price paid for all shares of common stock issued under the Purchase Agreement (including both Purchase Shares and Commitment Shares) is equal to or greater than $1.346, which is a price equal to the lower of (A) the Official Closing Price immediately preceding the execution of the Purchase Agreement and (B) the average Official Closing Price of our common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the execution of the Purchase Agreement, as calculated in accordance with the NYSE American LLC Company Guide, such that the sales of such common stock to the Selling Shareholder would not count toward such limit because they are “at market” under applicable stock exchange rules. See “The Committed Equity Financing” for a description of the Purchase Agreement and “Selling Shareholder” for additional information regarding the Selling Shareholder.

We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock by the Selling Shareholder. Additionally, we will not receive any proceeds from the issuance or sale of any Commitment Shares. However, we may receive up to $20 million in aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, from time to time in our discretion, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, after the date the registration statement that includes this prospectus is declared effective and after satisfaction of other conditions in the Purchase Agreement. The actual proceeds from the Selling Shareholder may be less than this amount depending on the number of shares of our common stock sold and the price at which the shares of our common stock are sold.

The Selling Shareholder may offer, sell or distribute all or a portion of the shares of our common stock acquired under the Purchase Agreement and hereby registered publicly or through private transactions at prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares of our common stock, including with regard to compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws. The Selling Shareholder will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to its sale of shares of our common stock. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information about how the Selling Shareholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of common stock being registered pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Shareholder is an underwriter under the Securities Act with respect to the resale of shares held by it.

You should read this prospectus and any prospectus supplement or amendment, together with additional information described under the headings “Where You Can Find More Information”, carefully before you invest in our securities.

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “YCBD.” On January 13, 2026, the last reported sales price of our common stock on the NYSE American was $1.04 per share.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 7 of this prospectus, and under similar headings in any amendment or supplement to this prospectus or in any other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

Corporate Information

Our company was formed under the laws of the state of North Carolina in March 2015 under the name Level Beauty Group, Inc. In November 2016 we changed the name of our company to Level Brands, Inc. Effective May 1, 2019, we changed our name to cbdMD, Inc.

Our principal executive offices are located at 2101 Westinghouse Blvd., Suite A Charlotte, NC 28273. Our telephone number at this location is (704) 445-3060. Our corporate website address is www.cbdmd.com. The information contained in, and that can be accessed through, our websites or our various social media platforms is not incorporated into and is not a part of this prospectus.

Our Company

We own and operate the nationally recognized CBD (cannabidiol) brands cbdMD and Paw CBD, as well as our beverage brand, Herbal Oasis (“Oasis”), and our functional mushroom brand, ATRx Labs. We believe that we are an industry leader producing and distributing dietary supplements and topical products, with an initial focus on hemp derived products including broad spectrum CBD products and full spectrum CBD products. Our mission is to identify and formulate products with novel, compelling ingredients and blends to enhance our customer’s overall quality of life while bringing education, awareness and accessibility of high quality and effective products to all. We source cannabinoids, including CBD, which are extracted from non-GMO hemp grown on farms in the United States. Our innovative broad spectrum formula utilizes a clinically studied hemp extract blend, containing CBD, CBG and CBN, while eliminating the presence of tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC"). Non-THC is defined as below the level of detection using validated scientific analytical methods. Our full spectrum and Delta 9 products contain a variety of cannabinoids and terpenes while maintaining small amounts of THC that fall within the limits set in the 2018 Farm Act. The ATRx brand was launched to bring non cannabinoid products to market, starting with non-psychoactive functional dietary mushrooms such as Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps and Reshi. In addition to our core brands, we also operate Therapeutics to capture the Company’s ongoing investments in science related to its existing and future products, including research and development activities for therapeutic applications and Proline Global that houses some of our newer brands.

Our cbdMD brand of products includes an array of high-grade, premium every day and functional CBD products, including tinctures, gummies, topicals, capsules and drink mixers as well as sleep, focus and calming aids. In addition, we have clinical based claims and industry leading strength and concentrations to drive product efficacy.

Our Paw CBD brand of products includes a line of veterinarian-formulated products including tinctures, chews, topicals products in varying strengths and formulas. Paw CBD products have undergone the National Animal Safety Council’s rigorous audit and meet their Quality Seal standard.

Our ATRx brand was developed using the power of functional mushrooms to provide consumers with a complementary natural ingredient solution for immunity, focus, digestive health, and cognitive and mood benefits.

Oasis is a premium hemp-derived THC-infused social seltzer that blends cannabinoids and nootropic mushrooms to deliver a fast-acting, functional beverage made for presence and connection.

cbdMD, Paw CBD, Oasis, and ATRx products are distributed through our e-commerce websites, third party e-commerce sites, select distributors and marketing partners as well as a variety of brick-and-mortar retailers.

Recent Developments

Management’s efforts to drive shareholder value during 2025 were focused in two areas: (i) deliver positive earnings through a combination of optimizing our product portfolio, rationalizing our cost structure, and growing revenue and (ii) simplifying our capital structure.

During fiscal 2025, we made progress on strengthening the business. We were able to essentially maintain our revenue base and we continued to reduce our GAAP operating loss from a $3.3 million loss during fiscal 2024 to $2.1 million during fiscal 2025. We accomplished this while still focusing on disciplined cost control, rebuilding our marketing team and launching into the exciting hemp derived THC beverage category with our brand Oasis.

During fiscal 2025, we were successful in cleaning up our capital structure and, at our annual meeting in April 2025, we secured sufficient votes to convert our Series A Convertible Preferred and outstanding accrued preferred dividends into approximately 91% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. This vote was critical to regaining compliance with NYSE American continued listing standards and maintaining our NYSE American listing as well as make the Company more attractive for merger and acquisition activity. We are now back in compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards and our non-compliance status has been removed.

During the fiscal fourth quarter of 2025, the Company continued to make progress on building momentum with sequential and year-over-year increase in revenue. We continue to make progress with our Oasis brand, which continues to grow quarterly as we added distributors and improved our sell-through at retailers. We are now available throughout the Southeast in Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee and several other states outside the Southeast. To date, Oasis has been a P&L earnings drag on the Company as we invest in a scaling, high-growth category. We made changes during the first fiscal quarter of 2026 to reduce certain Oasis brand overhead expenses and add sales staff and we are starting to see some benefits of scale as revenues continue to grow.

cbdMD believes trends from late 2025 are continuing in the first quarter of 2026. We are seeing momentum in our direct-to-consumer business, wholesale is trending up and we added additional Oasis distribution during the quarter. In addition, we have identified nearly $200,000 in corporate overhead savings that will be implemented during early 2026 with insurance renewals and professional fees leading the way.

During calendar 2025, we have faced a notable uptick in both state and federal regulatory activity. While most of the state level action to restrict the hemp category occurred, the industry built sufficient support to limit many restrictions on our industry. Unfortunately, federal action in November 2025 poses a significant threat to the industry and our revenue bases.

On September 29, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Series B Purchase Agreements”) with four institutional investors (the “Series B Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Series B Purchasers were issued an aggregate of 1,700,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,700,000. The Company and the Series B Purchasers also entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC to register the shares underlying the Series B Preferred Stock. As of December 30, 2025, 1,108,793 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were converted into 1,108,793 shares of common stock.

On December 15, 2025, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, and the purchaser agreed to purchase, up to $20 million of the Company’s common stock, subject to limitations as set forth in the agreement. The Company and the purchaser also entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC covering the resale of shares of common stock sold under the Purchase Agreement.

On December 18, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Series C Agreement”) with two institutional investors (the “Series C Purchasers”) pursuant to which the investors were issued an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,250,000. The Company and the Series C Purchasers also entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC to register the shares underlying the Series C Preferred Stock.

The C/M Capital Transaction

On December 15, 2025, the Company and C/M Capital entered into the Purchase Agreement which provides that subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, the Company may sell to C/M Capital up to $20,000,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Purchase Shares”), subject to the terms regarding the Exchange Cap (as defined below). As consideration for the Selling Shareholder’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, we have agreed to issue to the Selling Shareholder, (i) on the execution date of the Purchase Agreement, an amount of shares of common stock equal to 0.5% of the aggregate Available Amount (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (40,000 shares) and (ii) after the execution date of the Purchase Agreement, a number of shares of common stock equal to 0.5% of the initial aggregate Available Amount, issued in a pro-rated fashion simultaneously with the delivery of any Purchase Shares purchased under the Purchase Agreement (the “Commitment Shares” and, together with the Purchase Shares, the “Securities”).

Additionally, on December 15, 2025, the Company and C/M Capital entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of shares of common stock that are issued to C/M Capital under the Purchase Agreement.

We do not have a right to commence any sales of common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement until the Commencement Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Over the 36-month period from and after the Commencement Date (unless the Purchase Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with its terms), the Selling Shareholder has no right to require us to sell any shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder, but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Selling Shareholder is obligated to make purchases as we direct in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. There are no upper limits on the price per share that the Selling Shareholder must pay for shares of common stock. Actual sales of shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and determinations by us as to the appropriate sources of funding for us and our operations.

At any time from and after the Commencement Date, on any business day on which the previous business day’s closing sale price of common stock was equal to or greater than the Floor Price (as defined in the Purchase Agreement (the “Fixed Purchase Date”), we may direct the Selling Shareholder to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock (a “Fixed Purchase”) not to exceed on any single business day (i) $500,000 of shares of common stock or (ii) $10,000,000 in the aggregate of Fixed Purchases shares of common stock, at a purchase price equal to the lesser of 95% of (i) the lowest sale price of the common stock on the trading day immediately prior to such applicable Fixed Purchase Date or (ii) the daily volume weighted average price (the “VWAP”) of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable Fixed Purchase Date for such Fixed Purchase.

In addition, at any time from and after the Commencement Date, on any business day on which the previous business day’s closing sale price of the common stock is equal to or greater than the Floor Price and such business day is also the Purchase Date for a Fixed Purchase of an amount of shares of Common Stock not less than the applicable Fixed Purchase Share Limit (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “VWAP Purchase Date”), we may also direct the Selling Shareholder to purchase an additional number of shares of common stock (a “VWAP Purchase”) at a purchase price equal to the lesser of 95% of (i) the closing price of a share of common stock on the trading day immediately prior to such applicable VWAP Purchase Date and (ii) the lowest sale price of the common stock on such applicable VWAP Purchase Date.

If we make certain issuances of our securities within three business days after a Purchase Date and such securities are issued at prices (the “New Issuance Price”) less than the prices to be paid by the Selling Shareholder in such Fixed Purchase or VWAP Purchase, the purchase price for such applicable Fixed Purchase or VWAP Purchase would be reduced to the New Issuance Price, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Under the Purchase Agreement, in no event may the aggregate amount of Purchase Shares submitted in any single or combination of VWAP Purchase notices on a particular date require a payment from the Selling Shareholder to us that exceeds $10,000,000, unless such limitation is waived by the Selling Shareholder.

In no event shall we issue or sell any shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to the extent that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (including the Commitment Shares) would exceed 19.99% of the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately preceding the execution of the Purchase Agreement (the “Exchange Cap”), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, unless and until we obtain the approval of the issuance of such shares by our shareholders in accordance with the applicable stock exchange rules or (ii) the price paid for any shares of common stock issued under the Purchase Agreement is equal to or greater than the applicable Base Price, which is the closing price of a the Company’s common stock on the NYSE American immediately prior to delivery of a Fixed Purchase Notice or VWAP Purchase Notice, such that the sales of such common stock to the Selling Shareholder would not count toward the Exchange Cap because they are “at market” under applicable stock exchange rules.

In addition, the Selling Shareholder is not obligated to buy any shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement if such shares of common stock, when aggregated with all other common stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result in the Selling Shareholder beneficially owning common stock in excess of 4.99% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), provided, however, the Selling Shareholder may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation up to 9.99% at its sole discretion upon sixty-one days’ prior written notice to us.

The net proceeds under the Purchase Agreement to us will depend on the frequency and prices at which we sell shares of our stock to the Selling Shareholder. We intend to use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. We will retain broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from this offering.

We have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, upon one business day’s notice, however, the full amount of Commitment Shares shall be delivered to the Selling Shareholder prior to termination of the Purchase Agreement. During any Suspension Event (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), while the Selling Shareholder does not have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement, we may not initiate any Purchase until such Suspension Event has been cured in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, in the event of bankruptcy proceedings by or against us, the Purchase Agreement will automatically terminate in accordance with its terms.

There are substantial risks to our shareholders as a result of the sale and issuance of common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to the following: substantial dilution, significant declines in our stock price and our inability to draw sufficient funds when needed. See “Risk Factors.” The sale of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement will not affect the rights or privileges of our other shareholders, except that the economic and voting interests of our existing shareholders will be diluted as a result of any such sale. Although the number of shares of common stock that our other shareholders own will not decrease, the shares owned by our other shareholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares after any such sale to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before purchasing the securities offered by this prospectus you should carefully read the risk factors incorporated by reference in this prospectus from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025 filed with the SEC on December 19, 2025, as well as the risks, uncertainties and additional information set forth in the other documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus that we file with the SEC after the date of this prospectus and which are deemed incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and the information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement. For a description of these reports and documents, and information about where you can find them, see “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.” The risks and uncertainties we discuss in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus are those that we currently believe may materially affect our company. Additional risks not presently known, or currently deemed immaterial, also could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects.

Risks Related to the Committed Equity Financing

It is not possible to predict the actual number of shares of our common stock, if any, we will sell under the Purchase Agreement, or the actual gross proceeds resulting from those sales or the dilution to you from those sales. Further, we may not have access to the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Selling Shareholder shall, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, purchase from us up to the lesser of (a) $20,000,000 of shares of common stock, subject to the Exchange Cap, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement (such amount, the “Commitment Amount”); provided, however, that such limitations will not apply if we obtain shareholder approval to issue additional shares of common stock and, accordingly, we have registered 3,234,000 shares for issuance under the Purchase Agreement and resale pursuant to this prospectus, assuming that such shareholder approval is obtained. The shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Purchase Agreement may be sold, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, by us to the Selling Shareholder at our discretion from time to time from the Commencement Date (as defined below) until the earliest to occur of (i) the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of the Commencement Date, (ii) the date on which the Selling Shareholder shall have purchased the Commitment Amount, and (iii) the Purchase Agreement is otherwise terminated in accordance with its terms.

We do not have a right to commence any sales of common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement until the time when all of the conditions to our right to commence sales of common stock to the Selling Shareholder set forth in the Purchase Agreement have been satisfied, or the Commencement Date, including the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Over the 36-month period from and after the Commencement Date, we will generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement. Sales of our common stock, if any, to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement will depend upon market conditions, our capital needs, alternative financing options, and other factors to be determined by us in our sole discretion. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Shareholder all, some or none of the common stock that may be available for us to sell to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to sell all of the Commitment Amount or how much in proceeds we may obtain under the Purchase Agreement. If we cannot sell securities under the Committed Equity Financing, we may be required to utilize more costly and time-consuming means of accessing the capital markets, which could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and cash position.

Because the purchase price per share of common stock to be paid by the Selling Shareholder for the common stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our common stock at the time we make such election, it is not possible for us to predict, as of the date of this prospectus and prior to any such sales, the number of shares of common stock that we will sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price per share that the Selling Shareholder will pay for shares of common stock purchased from us under the Purchase Agreement, or the aggregate gross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement.

We are registering 3,234,000 shares of our common stock under this prospectus. As of December 30, 2025, there were 10,068,203 shares of common stock outstanding. If all of the 3,234,000 shares of our common stock offered for resale by the Selling Shareholder under this prospectus were issued and outstanding as of December 30, 2025, such shares would represent in excess of 20% of total number of shares of our common stock outstanding.

The actual number of shares of our common stock issuable will vary depending on the then current market price of shares of our common stock sold to the Selling Shareholder in this offering and the number of shares of our common stock we ultimately elect to sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement. If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement more than the amount of purchase shares being registered for resale under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to $10,000,000 under the Purchase Agreement, we must file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Shareholder of any such additional shares of our common stock we wish to sell from time to time under the Purchase Agreement, which the SEC must declare effective, in each case before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement. Under applicable NYSE American LLC Company Guide rules, in no event may we issue to the Selling Shareholder shares of our common stock representing 20% or more of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement, or approximately 1,790,986 shares of common stock, unless (i) we obtain the approval of the issuance of additional shares by our shareholders in accordance with the applicable stock exchange rules or (ii) the price paid for any shares of common stock issued under the Purchase Agreement is equal to or greater than the applicable Base Price, which is the closing price of a the Company’s common stock on the NYSE American immediately prior to delivery of a Fixed Purchase Notice or VWAP Purchase Notice, such that the sales of such common stock to the Selling Shareholder would not count toward the Exchange Cap because they are “at market” under applicable stock exchange rules.

In addition, the Selling Shareholder is not obligated to buy any common stock under the Purchase Agreement if such shares, when aggregated with all other common stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result in the Selling Shareholder beneficially owning common stock in excess of 4.99% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock, or the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, however, the Selling Shareholder may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation up to 9.99% at its sole discretion upon sixty-one days’ prior written notice to us. Our inability to access a portion or the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement, in the absence of any other financing sources, could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operation.

The Selling Shareholder will pay less than the then-prevailing market price for our common stock, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

The purchase price of our common stock to be sold to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement is derived from the market price of our common stock on the NYSE American. Shares to be sold to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be purchased at a discounted price.

For example, we may effect sales to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to a Fixed Purchase Notice at a purchase price equal to the lesser of 95% of (i) the lowest sale price of a share of common stock on the business day immediately preceding the applicable Fixed Purchase Date and (ii) the daily volume weighted average price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable Fixed Purchase Date. This pricing mechanism means that shares will always be sold at a 5% or greater discount to market price. See “The Committed Equity Financing” for more information.

As a result of this pricing structure, the Selling Shareholder may sell the shares they receive immediately after receipt of such shares, which could cause the price of our common stock to decrease. This immediate resale could create downward pressure on our stock price.

Investors who buy shares of common stock from the Selling Shareholder at different times will likely pay different prices.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we have discretion (subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement) to vary the timing, price and number of shares of common stock we sell to the Selling Shareholder. If and when we elect to sell shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after the Selling Shareholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Shareholder may resell all, some or none of such shares at any time or from time to time in its sole discretion and at different prices. As a result, investors who purchase shares from the Selling Shareholder in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares, and so may experience different levels of dilution and in some cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase from the Selling Shareholder in this offering as a result of future sales made by us to the Selling Shareholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid for their shares in this offering. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of shares or the mere existence of our arrangements with the Selling Shareholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales.

Future resales and/or issuances of shares of common stock, including pursuant to this prospectus, or the perception that such sales may occur, may cause the market price of our shares to drop significantly.

On December 18, 2025, we entered into the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Selling Shareholder shall, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, purchase from us up to an aggregate of $20,000,000 of shares of common stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

The shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Purchase Agreement may be sold, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, by us to the Selling Shareholder at our discretion from time to time from the date of effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part until the earliest to occur of (i) the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of the Commencement Date, (ii) the date on which the Selling Shareholder shall have purchased the Commitment Amount, or (iii) the Purchase Agreement is otherwise terminated in accordance with its terms.

The purchase price for shares of our common stock that we may sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the trading price of shares of our common stock. Depending on market liquidity at the time, sales of shares of our common stock may cause the trading price of shares of our common stock to decrease. We generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any future sales of shares of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder. Additional sales of shares of our common stock, if any, to the Selling Shareholder will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Shareholder all, some or none of the additional shares of our common stock that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If and when we do sell shares of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder, after the Selling Shareholder has acquired shares of our common stock, the Selling Shareholder may resell all, some, or none of such shares of our common stock at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices. Therefore, sales to the Selling Shareholder by us could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of shares of our common stock. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the shares held by the Selling Shareholder will represent a significant portion of our public float and may result in substantial decreases to the price of our common stock. The actual sales of shares of our common stock or the mere existence of our arrangement with the Selling Shareholder may also make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to affect such sales

We presently have options, unvested restricted stock awards and warrants that if exercised would result in the issuance of an additional 31,134 shares of our common stock and 445,000 shares of unvested restricted common stock granted under the Company’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, which is subject to shareholder approval. We have also issued shares of our Series B Preferred Stock which are currently convertible into 591,207 shares of common stock and accrue dividends at rate of 10% per annum, payable in cash or in shares of common stock and shares of our Series C Preferred Stock which are currently convertible into 1,000,000 shares of common stock and accrue dividends at rate of 10% per annum, payable in cash or in shares of common stock. In addition, shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise or vesting of incentive awards under our incentive plans are, once issued, eligible for sale in the public market, subject to any lock-up agreements and, in some cases, limitations on volume and manner of sale applicable to affiliates under Rule 144. Furthermore, shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our incentive plan may become available for sale in future.

We may use proceeds from sales of our common stock made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in ways with which you may not agree or in ways which may not yield a significant return.

We will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from sales of our common stock made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including for any of the purposes described in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds,” and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. While we expect to use the net proceeds from this offering as set forth in “Use of Proceeds,” we are not obligated to do so. The failure by us to apply these funds effectively could harm our business, and the net proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not increase our operating results or enhance the value of our common stock.

Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Capital Needs

If we do not raise debt or equity capital, we may not be able to pay all of our contractual obligations.

The extent we rely on the Selling Shareholder as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and volume of trading and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. If obtaining sufficient funding from the Selling Shareholder does not occur for any reason including the Selling Shareholder suffering liquidity issues or failure of the Company to keep the registration statement current, we will need to secure another source of funding in order to pay off our contractual obligations. Should the financing we require be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, such circumstances would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Our auditors have issued a “going concern” audit opinion.

Our independent auditors have indicated in their report on our September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 financial statements that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. A “going concern” opinion indicates that the financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result if we do not continue as a going concern. Therefore, you should not rely on our balance sheet as an indication of the amount of proceeds that would be available to satisfy claims of creditors, and potentially be available for distribution to shareholders, in the event of liquidation.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Due to factors beyond our control, our stock price may be volatile.

Any of the following factors could affect the market price of our common stock:

	●	Our failure to increase revenue in each succeeding quarter and achieve and thereafter maintain profitability;
	●	Our failure to meet our revenue and earnings guidance or our failure to meet financial analysts’ performance expectations;
	●	Cybersecurity breaches;
	●	The loss of customers or our failure to attract more customers;
	●	Creditworthiness and solvency of clients;
	●	Loss of key employees;
	●	The sale of a large amount of common stock by our shareholders;
	●	Our announcement of a pending or completed acquisition or our failure to complete a proposed acquisition;
	●	An adverse court ruling or regulatory action;
	●	Changes in regulatory practices, including tariffs and taxes;
	●	Changes in market valuations of similar companies;
	●	Short selling activities;
	●	Our announcement of any financing or a change in the direction of our business;
	●	Announcements by us, or our competitors, of significant contracts, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments; or
	●	Other forces outside of our control such as inflation, Federal Reserve interest rate increases and the recessionary environment it could bring, geopolitical turmoil and other developments that could adversely impact the U.S. and global economies and erode investor sentiment.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. A securities class action suit against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s time and attention, which would otherwise be used to benefit our business.

We are subject to the continued listing standards of the NYSE American and our failure to satisfy these criteria may result in de-listing of our securities.

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American. In order to maintain these listings, we must maintain certain share prices, financial and share distribution targets, including maintaining a minimum amount of shareholders’ equity and a minimum number of public shareholders. In addition to these objective standards, the NYSE American may delist the securities of any issuer (i) if, in its opinion, the issuer’s financial condition and/or operating results appear unsatisfactory; (ii) if it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of the security has become so reduced as to make continued listing on the NYSE American inadvisable; (iii) if the issuer sells or disposes of principal operating assets or ceases to be an operating company; (iv) if an issuer fails to comply with the NYSE American’s listing requirements; (v) if an issuer’s securities sell at what the NYSE American considers a “low selling price” and the issuer fails to correct this via a reverse split of shares after notification by the NYSE American; or (vi) if any other event occurs or any condition exists which, in the opinion of the NYSE American, makes continued listing inadvisable. If the NYSE American delists our common stock, investors may face material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, a lack of trading market for our securities, reduced liquidity, decreased analyst coverage of our securities, and an inability for us to obtain any additional financing to fund our operations that we may need.

THE COMMITTED EQUITY FINANCING

Overview

On December 15, 2025, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Shareholder. Sales of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, and the timing of any sales, will be determined by us from time to time in our sole discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and determinations by us regarding the use of proceeds from any sale of such common stock. The net proceeds from any sales under the Committed Equity Financing will depend on the frequency with, and prices at which, the shares of common stock are sold to the Selling Shareholder. To the extent we sell shares under the Purchase Agreement, we currently plan to use the net proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

In accordance with our obligations under the Purchase Agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed to provide the Selling Shareholder with customary registration rights related to the shares issued under the Purchase Agreement, we have filed a registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part in order to register the resale of up to: (i) 3,154,000 Purchase Shares that we may elect, in our sole discretion, to issue and sell to the Selling Shareholder, from time to time after the Commencement Date upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of the Purchase Agreement, subject to applicable stock exchange rules; and (ii) up to 80,000 Commitment Shares that may be issued to the Selling Shareholder in connection with related issuances and sales of Purchase Shares as consideration for the Selling Shareholder’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement.

Under applicable NYSE American Company Guide rules, in no event may we issue to the Selling Shareholder shares of our common stock representing 20% or more of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, unless we obtain prior shareholder approval or if such approval is not required in accordance with the applicable NYSE American rules. In addition, the Selling Shareholder is not obligated to buy any common stock under the Purchase Agreement if such shares, when aggregated with all other common stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder and its respective affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result in the Selling Shareholder beneficially owning common stock in excess of 4.99% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock, or the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, however, the Selling Shareholder may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation up to 9.99% at its sole discretion upon sixty-one days’ prior written notice to us. Our inability to access a portion or the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement, in the absence of any other financing sources, could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operation.

The Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement contain customary registration rights, representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations by each party. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in such agreements were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements and are subject to certain important limitations.

Purchase Agreement

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Selling Shareholder shall subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, purchase from us up to the lesser of (i) $20,000,000 in aggregate value of shares of our common stock, subject to the Exchange Cap, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, or the Commitment Amount; provided, however, that such limitations will not apply if we obtain shareholder approval to issue additional shares of common stock. The shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Purchase Agreement may be sold, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, by us to the Selling Shareholder at our discretion from time to time from the Commencement Date until the earliest to occur of (i) the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of the Commencement Date, (ii) the date on which the Selling Shareholder shall have purchased the Commitment Amount, (iii) the ninetieth day after the date on which, pursuant to or within the meaning of any bankruptcy law, we commence a voluntary case or any person commences a proceeding against us, in each case that is not discharged or dismissed prior to such ninetieth day, and (iv) the date on which, pursuant to or within the meaning of any bankruptcy law, a custodian is appointed for us or for all or substantially all of our property, or we make a general assignment for the benefit of our creditors, or each, a Termination Event.

Purchases of Shares of Our Common Stock Under the Purchase Agreement

During the term described above, on any business day on which the closing sale price of the common stock on the NYSE American is equal to or greater than the Floor Price, we will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at our sole discretion, subject to the restrictions and satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement, to direct the Selling Shareholder, by delivery of an irrevocable written notice (a “Fixed Purchase Notice”), to purchase a number of shares of our common stock, or the Fixed Purchase, not to exceed, on any trading day, the lesser of (i) $500,000 of shares of Common Stock or (ii) $10,000,000 in the aggregate of Fixed Purchases, at a purchase price equal to the lesser of 95% (i) lowest sale price of the common stock on the trading day immediately prior to such applicable Fixed Purchase Date or (ii) the average daily VWAP of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable Purchase Date for such Fixed Purchase.

In addition, at any time from and after the Commencement Date, on any business day on which the closing sale price of the common stock is equal to or greater than the Floor Price and such business day is also the Fixed Purchase Date for a Fixed Purchase of an amount of shares of common stock not less than the applicable Fixed Purchase Share Limit (calculated as of the applicable Fixed Purchase Date), we may also direct the Selling Shareholder, by delivery of a VWAP Purchase Notice, to purchase, on the VWAP Purchase Date, an additional number of shares of common stock in an amount not in excess of the lesser of (i) 300% of the number of shares of common stock directed by us to be purchased by the Selling Shareholder for the applicable Fixed Purchase and (ii) 30% of the trading volume in our common stock on the NYSE American during the applicable VWAP Purchase period on the applicable VWAP Purchase Date, at a purchase price equal to the lesser of 95% of (i) the closing sale price of the common stock on the business day immediately preceding the applicable VWAP Purchase Date and (ii) the lowest sale price of the common stock during the applicable VWAP Purchase period.

Notwithstanding the above, in no event may the aggregate amount of Purchase Shares submitted in any single or combination of VWAP Purchase notices on a particular date require a payment from the Selling Shareholder to us that exceeds $10,000,000, unless such limitation is waived by the Selling Shareholder.

For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “VWAP” shall mean the daily volume weighted average price of the common stock on the NYSE American as reported by Bloomberg through its “AQR” function.

All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any sales of shares of common stock through block transactions, any reorganization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction during such period.

Commitment Shares and Fees

In connection with entering into the Purchase Agreement, to issue to the Selling Shareholder, (i) on the execution date of the Purchase Agreement, an amount of shares of common stock equal to 0.5% of the aggregate Available Amount (40,000 shares) and (ii) after the execution date of the Purchase Agreement, a number of shares of common stock equal to 5% of the initial aggregate Available Amount, issued in a pro-rated fashion simultaneously with the delivery of any Purchase Shares purchased under the Purchase Agreement.

We have paid the Selling Shareholder $25,000 in cash as reimbursement for the reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Selling Shareholder, including the legal fees and disbursements of the Selling Shareholder’s legal counsel, in connection with its due diligence investigation and the preparation, negotiation and execution of the Purchase Agreement.

Conditions Precedent to Commencement

Our right to commence delivering Fixed Purchase Notices and VWAP Purchase Notices (collectively, “Purchase Notices”) under the Purchase Agreement and the Selling Shareholder’s obligation to accept such Purchase Notices, are subject to the initial satisfaction, at the Commencement Date, of the conditions precedent thereto set forth in the Purchase Agreement, which conditions include, among others, the following:

	●	the accuracy in all material respects of our representations and warranties included in the Purchase Agreement;
	●	this prospectus, in final form, and all reports, schedules, registrations, forms, statements, information and other documents required to have been filed by us with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act having been so filed;
	●	the common stock not having been suspended by the SEC or the NYSE American within the last 365 days;
	●	no condition, occurrence, state of facts or event constituting a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing;
	●	customary compliance with laws and bankruptcy-related conditions; and
	●	the receipt by the Selling Shareholder of a customary legal opinion, as required under the Purchase Agreement.

Termination of the Purchase Agreement

Unless earlier terminated as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Agreement will terminate automatically on the earliest to occur of:

	●	the first day of the month immediately following the 36-month anniversary of the Commencement Date;
	●	the date on which the Selling Shareholder shall have purchased the Commitment Amount;
	●	the ninetieth day after the date on which, pursuant to or within the meaning of any bankruptcy law, we commence a voluntary case or any person commences a proceeding against us, in each case that is not discharged or dismissed prior to such ninetieth day; and
	●	the date on which, pursuant to or within the meaning of any bankruptcy law, a custodian is appointed for us or for all or substantially all of our property, or we make a general assignment for the benefit of our creditors.

We have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time after the Commencement Date upon one business day’s prior written notice to the Selling Shareholder, provided that we have satisfied all outstanding payment and delivery obligations related to any Purchase Shares issued to the Selling Shareholder prior to the effective date of such termination. The full amount of Commitment Shares shall be delivered to the Selling Shareholder prior to termination of the Purchase Agreement. We or the Selling Shareholder may also terminate the Purchase Agreement at the close of business on the one year anniversary of the signing of the Purchase Agreement or thereafter, in the event the Commencement Date shall not have occurred prior to such one year anniversary due to our failure to satisfy the conditions precedent to commencement. We and the Selling Shareholder may also terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time by mutual written consent. No termination of the Purchase Agreement by us or by the Selling Shareholder will affect any of our respective rights and obligations under (i) the Purchase Agreement with respect to any pending Purchase, and both we and the Selling Shareholder have agreed to complete our respective obligations with respect to any such pending Purchase under the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the Registration Rights Agreement, which shall survive any termination of the Purchase Agreement. Further, no termination of the Purchase Agreement will be deemed to release us or the Selling Shareholder from any liability for intentional misrepresentation or willful breach of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other related transaction documents.

Dilutive Issuances and Purchase Price Adjustment

For as long as the Selling Shareholder owns any of our common stock, if within three business days immediately following a Purchase Date, we issue securities at prices (the “New Issuance Price”) less than the prices to be paid by the Selling Shareholder in such Fixed Purchase or VWAP Purchase, the purchase price for such applicable Fixed Purchase or VWAP Purchase would be reduced to the New Issuance Price, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

No Short-Selling or Hedging

The Selling Shareholder has agreed that neither it nor any entity managed or controlled by it will engage in, directly or indirectly, any (A) “short sale” (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of our common stock or (B) hedging transaction, which, with respect to items (A) and (B), establishes a net short position with respect to the common stock, during the term of the Purchase Agreement.

Effects of Sales of our Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement on Our Shareholders

The common stock being registered for resale in this offering may be issued and sold by us to the Selling Shareholder from time to time at our discretion, during the terms described above. The resale by the Selling Shareholder of a significant quantity of shares registered for resale in this offering at any given time, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile. Sales of our common stock, if any, to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement will be determined by us in our sole discretion, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the Purchase Agreement, and will depend upon market conditions and other factors. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Shareholder all, some or none of the common stock that may be available for us to sell to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If we elect to sell common stock to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after the Selling Shareholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Shareholder may resell all, some or none of such common stock at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices. As a result, investors who purchase common stock from the Selling Shareholder in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares of common stock, and so may experience different levels of dilution and in some cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. See “Risk Factors-Risks Related to the Committed Equity Financings-Investors who buy shares of common stock from the Selling Shareholder at different times will likely pay different prices.”

Investors may experience a decline in the value of the common stock they purchase from the Selling Shareholder in this offering as a result of future sales made by us to the Selling Shareholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid for their shares in this offering. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of common stock or the mere existence of our arrangement with the Selling Shareholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales.

Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Shareholder for the common stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our common stock at the time we make such election, as of the date of this prospectus, it is not possible for us to predict the number of shares of common stock that we will sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement, the actual purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Shareholder for those shares of common stock, or the actual gross proceeds to be raised by us from those sales, if any.

The number of shares of common stock ultimately offered for sale by the Selling Shareholder for resale under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares of common stock, if any, we ultimately sell to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement. Further, if and when we elect to sell shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after the Selling Shareholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Shareholder may resell all, some, or none of such shares of common stock at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices.

The issuance of our shares of common stock to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will not affect the rights or privileges of our existing shareholders, except that the economic and voting interests of each of our existing shareholders will be diluted. Although the number of shares of common stock that our existing shareholders own will not decrease, the shares of common stock owned by our existing shareholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares of common stock after any such issuance.

The following table sets forth the amount of gross proceeds we may receive from the Selling Shareholder from our sale of Purchase Shares that we may issue and sell to the Selling Shareholder from time to time under the Purchase Agreement at various assumed purchase prices. The table does not give effect to the issuance of any Commitment Shares.

Assumed Purchase Price Per Share		Total Number of Purchase Shares to be Issued		Percentage of Outstanding Common Stock After Giving Effect to the Issuance of the Purchase Shares to the Selling Shareholder (1)		Proceeds from the Sale of the Purchase Shares to the Selling Shareholder
$	0.60		3,154,000		32.01%	$	1,892,400

__________

	(1)	The denominator is based on 10,068,203 shares of our common stock outstanding as of December 30, 2025, adjusted to include the issuance of the number of Purchase Shares set forth in the adjacent column which we would have issued to the Selling Shareholder based on the applicable assumed purchase price per share.

	(2)	Represents the last reported sales price of our common stock on January 13, 2026, as reported by the NYSE American.

	(3)	Represents the minimum price for which the average price paid for all shares of common stock issued under the Purchase Agreement must be in order for the sales to be considered “at market” under applicable stock exchange rules and therefore not subject to the Exchange Cap.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock offered by the Selling Shareholder. In addition, we will not receive any proceeds from the issuance or sale of the Commitment Shares. We may receive up to $20,000,000 in aggregate gross proceeds from sales of shares of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement after the date of this prospectus. However, the actual proceeds may be less than this amount depending on the number of shares of our common stock sold and the price at which the shares of our common stock are sold.

MARKET INFORMATION

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “YCBD.”

On January 13, 2026, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the NYSE American was $1.04 per share. As of January 13, 2026, we had approximately 117 shareholders of record. The actual number of holders of our common stock is greater than this number of record holders and includes shareholders who are beneficial owners, but whose shares are held in street name by brokers or held by other nominees. This number of holders of record also does not include shareholders whose shares may be held in trust by other entities.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We do not currently intend to pay dividends on our common stock. Our ability to declare and pay dividends on our common stock is subject to the designations, rights and preferences of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock. Unless full cumulative dividends on all shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been or contemporaneously is set apart for payment for all past dividend periods, no dividends (other than in shares of our common stock or in shares of any junior stock we may issue as to dividends and upon liquidation) may be declared or paid or set aside for payment on our shares of our common stock. Even if we meet these conditions, the declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends on shares of our common stock, if any, will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors, which may take into account general and economic conditions, our financial condition and results of operations, our available cash and current and anticipated cash needs, capital requirements, contractual, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, the implications of the payment of dividends by us to our shareholders or by our subsidiaries to us, and any other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

THE SELLING SHAREHOLDER

This prospectus relates to the possible resale from time to time by the Selling Shareholder of any or all shares of our common stock that have been or may be issued by us to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement. Such shares of our common stock include (i) up to 3,154,000 Purchase Shares that we may elect, in our sole discretion, to issue and sell to the Selling Shareholder, from time to time from and after the Commencement Date under the Purchase Agreement; and (ii) up to 80,000 Commitment Shares that may be issued to the Selling Shareholder in connection with related issuances and sales of Purchase Shares as consideration for the Selling Shareholder’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement.

As used in this prospectus, the term “Selling Shareholder” includes the Selling Shareholder listed in the table below, and its permitted pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees, successors, designees, successors-in-interest and others who later come to hold any of the Selling Shareholder’s interest in the shares of common stock in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreements governing their respective registration rights, other than through a public sale. This prospectus also covers any additional securities that may become issuable by reason of stock splits, stock dividends or other similar transactions.

For additional information regarding the issuance of common stock covered by this prospectus, see the section entitled “Committed Equity Financing” above. We are registering the shares of common stock pursuant to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement in order to permit the Selling Shareholder to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Selling Shareholder has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

The table below presents information regarding the Selling Shareholder and the shares of common stock that it may offer from time to time under this prospectus. This table is prepared based on information supplied to us by the selling shareholder, and reflects holdings as of January 11, 2026. The number of shares in the column “Maximum Number of Shares of Common Stock to be Offered Pursuant to this Prospectus” represents all of the shares of common stock that the Selling Shareholder may offer under this prospectus. The Selling Shareholder may sell some, all or none of its shares in this offering. We do not know how long the Selling Shareholder will hold the shares before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the Selling Shareholder regarding the sale of any of the shares.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act, and includes shares of common stock with respect to which the Selling Shareholder has voting and investment power. The percentage of common stock beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder prior to the offering shown in the table below is based on an aggregate of 10,068,203 shares of our common stock outstanding on January 11, 2026. Because the purchase price of the common stock issuable under the Purchase Agreement is determined on each Fixed Purchase Date, with respect to a Fixed Purchase and on the applicable VWAP Purchase Date, with respect to a VWAP Purchase, the number of shares that may actually be sold by us to the Selling Shareholder under the Purchase Agreement may be fewer than the number of shares being offered by this prospectus. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Shareholder pursuant to this prospectus.

We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time in the future to update or change the Selling Shareholder list and the securities that may be resold.

Please see the section titled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the Selling Shareholder’s method of distributing these securities.

(1)	In accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act, we have excluded from the number of shares beneficially owned prior to the offering all of the shares that the Selling Shareholder may be required to purchase under the Purchase Agreement, because the issuance of such shares is solely at our discretion and is subject to conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement, the satisfaction of which are entirely outside of the Selling Shareholder’s control, including the registration statement that includes this prospectus becoming and remaining effective. Furthermore, the Fixed Purchases or VWAP Purchase, as applicable, of common stock is subject to certain agreed upon maximum amount limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Also, the Purchase Agreement prohibits us from issuing and selling any of our common stock to the Selling Shareholder to the extent such shares, when aggregated with all other common stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder, would cause the Selling Shareholder beneficial ownership of our common stock to exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

(2)	The business address of C/M Capital Master Fund, LP is 1111 Brickell Avenue, Suite 2920, Miami, Florida 33131. As of the date of the Purchase Agreement, C/M Capital Master Fund, LP did not beneficially own any shares of our common stock. Thomas Walsh and Jonathan Juchno are the Managing Partners of C/M Capital Master Fund, LP, and therefore may be deemed to have shared voting and investment power over securities owned directly and indirectly by C/M Capital Master Fund, LP. The amount of shares beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder consists of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of 354,722 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, 725,225 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and 40,000 shares of common stock currently held by the Selling Shareholder, subject to Beneficial Ownership Limitation. C/M Capital Master Fund, LP is not a registered broker-dealer or an affiliate of a registered broker-dealer. The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Mr. Walsh and Mr. Juchno as to beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly by C/M Capital Master Fund, LP. Excludes shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock and shares issuable under the Purchase Agreement.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The shares of common stock offered by this prospectus are being offered by the Selling Shareholder. The shares may be sold or distributed from time to time by the Selling Shareholder directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The sale of our common stock offered by this prospectus could be effected in one or more of the following methods:

	●	ordinary brokers’ transactions;
	●	transactions involving cross or block trades;
	●	through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents;
	●	“at the market” into an existing market for our common stock;
	●	in other ways not involving market makers or established business markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents;
	●	in privately negotiated transactions; or
	●	any combination of the foregoing.
	●	In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares may be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from the state’s registration or qualification requirement is available and complied with.

The Selling Shareholder may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act.

The Selling Shareholder has informed us that it intends to use one or more registered broker-dealers to effectuate all sales, if any, of our common stock that it has acquired and may in the future acquire from us pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Such sales will be made at prices and at terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price. Each such registered broker-dealer will be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. The Selling Shareholder has informed us that each such broker-dealer will receive commissions from the Selling Shareholder that will not exceed customary brokerage commissions.

Brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of our common stock offered by this prospectus may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the purchasers, for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent, of the shares sold by the Selling Shareholder through this prospectus. The compensation paid to any such particular broker-dealer by any such purchasers of our common stock sold by the selling shareholder may be less than or in excess of customary commissions. Neither we nor the Selling Shareholder can presently estimate the amount of compensation that any agent will receive from any purchasers of our common stock sold by the Selling Shareholder.

We know of no existing arrangements between the Selling Shareholder or any other shareholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of our common stock offered by this prospectus.

We may from time to time file with the SEC one or more supplements to this prospectus or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to amend, supplement or update information contained in this prospectus, including, if and when required under the Securities Act, to disclose certain information relating to a particular sale of shares offered by this prospectus by the Selling Shareholder, including the names of any brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of such shares by the Selling Shareholder, any compensation paid by the Selling Shareholder to any such brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents, and any other required information.

We will pay the expenses incident to the registration under the Securities Act of the offer and sale of our common stock covered by this prospectus by the Selling Shareholder. As consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase our common stock under the Purchase Agreement, we have agreed to issue to the Selling Shareholder (i) on the execution date of the Purchase Agreement, an amount of shares of common stock equal to 0.5% of the aggregate Available Amount (40,000 shares) and (ii) after the execution date of the Purchase Agreement, a number of shares of common stock equal to 0.5% of the initial aggregate Available Amount, issued in a pro-rated fashion simultaneously with the delivery of any Purchase Shares purchased under the Purchase Agreement. We have also agreed to pay to the Selling Shareholder $25,000 in cash as reimbursement for the reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Selling Shareholder, including the legal fees and disbursements of the Selling Shareholder’s legal counsel, in connection with its due diligence investigation of the Company and in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of the Purchase Agreement. See “The Committed Equity Financing” for more information.

We also have agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholder and certain other persons against certain liabilities in connection with the offering of our common stock offered hereby, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities. The Selling Shareholder has agreed to indemnify us against liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from certain written information furnished to us by the Selling Shareholder specifically for use in this prospectus or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable.

The Selling Shareholder has represented to us that at no time prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement has the Selling Shareholder or its agents, representatives or affiliates engaged in or effected, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, any short sale (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of our common stock or any hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to our common stock. The Selling Shareholder has agreed that during the term of the Purchase Agreement, neither the Selling Shareholder, nor any of its agents, representatives or affiliates will enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any of the foregoing transactions.

We have advised the Selling Shareholder that it is required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the Selling Shareholder, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the securities offered by this prospectus.

This offering will terminate on the date that all of our common stock offered by this prospectus have been sold by the Selling Shareholder.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description summarizes important terms of our capital stock and our other securities. For a complete description, you should refer to our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws, forms of which are incorporated by reference to the exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

Our authorized capital is 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. We have designated 1,700,000 of our blank check preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and 1,000,000 of our blank check preferred stock as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. On January 11, 2026, there were 591,207 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and 1,000,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The balance of the blank check preferred stock is undesignated.

Common Stock

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a shareholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, subject to the preferences of any shares of our preferred stock which may then be outstanding, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.

Holders of common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions for the common stock. The rights of the holders of common stock are subject to any rights that may be fixed for holders of preferred stock, when and if any preferred stock is authorized and issued. All outstanding shares of common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

As of January 11, 2026, we had 10,068,203 shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, as of that date, there were approximately 19,716 shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of unvested restricted stock awards; 5,517 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options; 5,901 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants; 445,000 shares of unvested restricted common stock granted under the Company’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan which is subject to shareholder approval; 591,207 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our Series B Preferred Stock outstanding and 1,000,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding

Preferred Stock

Our board of directors, without further shareholder approval, may issue preferred stock in one or more series from time to time and fix or alter the designations, relative rights, priorities, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the shares of each series. The rights, preferences, limitations and restrictions of different series of preferred stock may differ with respect to dividend rates, amounts payable on liquidation, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption provisions, sinking fund provisions and other matters. Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock, which ranks senior to our common stock for the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets on liquidation. In addition, our board of directors can fix limitations and restrictions, if any, upon the payment of dividends on both classes of our common stock to be effective while any shares of preferred stock are outstanding.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

On September 29, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (“Series B Certificate of Designation”) designating 1,700,000 shares of the Company’s authorized preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $1.00, subject to anti-dilution adjustments and Alternative Conversion rights (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation). The Series B Preferred Stock accrues dividends at a rate of 10% per annum which are payable quarterly in shares of common stock, subject to the satisfaction of all Equity Conditions (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation), or in cash. If the Company fails to satisfy an Equity Condition, dividends shall be paid in cash. However, if North Carolina law prohibits the payment of dividends in cash, then the then Stated Value (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) shall be increased by the dividends as reasonably determined by the Company and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock.

With respect to liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, the Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to all shares of the Company’s capital stock unless otherwise consented to by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock have no voting power and no right to vote, except as required by the North Carolina Business Corporations Act or with respect to matters affecting the preferences, rights, privileges or powers relating to the Series B Preferred Stock. In addition, the Series B Preferred Stock is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation which prohibits any holder from beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately following such conversion. At January 11, 2026, there are 591,207 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

On December 19, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Series C Certificate of Designation”) designating 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized preferred stock as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Except for differences in the stated value, floor price and conversion price, the Series C Preferred Stock has terms and conditions that are substantially similar to those of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $2.25, subject to anti-dilution adjustments and Alternate Conversion rights (as defined in the Series C Certificate of Designation). The Series C Preferred Stock accrues dividends at a rate of 10% per annum which are payable quarterly in shares of common stock, subject to the satisfaction of all Equity Conditions (as defined in the Series C Certificate of Designation), or in cash. If the Company fails to satisfy an Equity Condition, dividends shall be paid in cash. However, if North Carolina law prohibits the payment of dividends in cash, then the then Stated Value (as defined in the Series C Certificate of Designation) shall be increased by the dividends as reasonably determined by the Company and the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock.

With respect to dividends, distributions, liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, the Series C Preferred Stock ranks pari passu with the Series B Preferred Stock and is senior to all other shares of the Company’s capital stock unless otherwise consented to by the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock. The holders of Series C Preferred Stock have no voting power and no right to vote, except as required by the North Carolina Business Corporations Act or with respect to matters affecting the preferences, rights, privileges or powers relating to the Series C Preferred Stock. In addition, the Series C Preferred Stock is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation which prohibits any holder from beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately following such conversion

Warrants

As of December 30, 2025, we have outstanding warrants to purchase 5,901 shares of common stock with exercise prices ranging from $20.16 to $1,350.00 and expiration dates from December 2025 to April 2028. The terms of the outstanding warrants were disclosed in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2020; December 9, 2020; June 30, 2021; and May 3, 2023.

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF NORTH CAROLINA LAW AND OF OUR CHARTER AND BYLAWS

Anti-Takeover Effects of North Carolina Law

The North Carolina Business Corporation Act (the “NCBCA”) has two primary anti-takeover statutes, the North Carolina Shareholder Protection Act and the North Carolina Control Share Acquisition Act, which govern the shareholder approval required for certain business combinations. Since the Company has not opted out of either of these provisions, it is subject to the anti-takeover effects of the North Carolina Shareholder Protection Act and the North Carolina Control Share Acquisition Act.

Under Article 9 of the NCBCA, the North Carolina Shareholder Protection Act generally requires the affirmative vote of 95% of a public corporation’s voting shares to approve a “business combination” with any other entity that a majority of continuing directors determines beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, more than 20% of the voting shares of the corporation (or ever owned more than 20% and is still an “affiliate” of the corporation) unless the fair price provisions and the procedural provisions of the statute are satisfied.

“Business combination” is defined by the statute as (i) any merger, consolidation or conversion of a corporation with or into any other entity, (ii) any sale or lease of all or any substantial part of the corporation’s assets to any other entity or (iii) any payment, sale or lease to the corporation or any subsidiary thereof by any other entity of assets having an aggregate fair market value of $5,000,000 or more in exchange for securities of the corporation

Under Article 9A of the NCBCA, the North Carolina Control Share Acquisition Act, “control shares” of a corporation that are acquired in a “control share acquisition” (as defined in the statute) have no voting rights unless such rights are granted by resolution adopted by a majority of the disinterested shareholders of the corporation, and in the event such voting rights were to be granted, all other shareholders would have the right, subject to certain limitations, to have their shares in the corporation redeemed at their fair value.

A person acquires “control shares” whenever such person acquires shares that, when added to all other shares of the corporation beneficially owned by such person, would entitle the person to voting power in the election of directors equal to or greater than one of three thresholds: one-fifth, one-third or a majority.

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that our shareholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Among other things, our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws:

●

permit our Board to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without further shareholder approval, with such rights, preferences and privileges as our Board may designate in accordance with applicable law, including rights relating to acquisitions or changes in control;

●

provide that the authorized number of directors shall be determined by a resolution adopted by a majority of the Board;

●

provide that, for interim periods before the next meeting of the shareholders held for the election of directors, all vacancies, including newly created directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law, be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum;

●

do not provide for cumulative voting rights (therefore allowing the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose); and

●

provide that special meetings of shareholders may be called only by the President, the Board, or the Chairman of the Board, or upon the written request of the holder or holders of not less than 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.

Equity Compensation Plans at September 30, 2025

On June 2, 2015, our board of directors and shareholders adopted our 2015 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2015 Plan”) initially covering 26,112 shares of common stock. At the 2019 annual meeting of our shareholders, our shareholders approved an increase in the based number of shares of our common stock reserved for grants under the plan to 45,445 shares.

On January 8, 2021, our board of directors approved the 2021 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2021 Plan”) and our shareholders approved the 2021 at our 2021 annual meeting. The 2021 Plan reserves 111,112 shares of our common stock for issuance pursuant to the terms of the plan upon the grant of plan options, restricted stock awards, or other stock-based awards granted under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan also contains an “evergreen formula” pursuant to which the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2021 Plan will automatically increase on October 1 of each calendar year during the term of the 2021 Plan, beginning with calendar year 2022, by an amount equal to 1% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on September 30 of the such calendar year, up to a maximum of 5,556 shares.

The purpose of each of the 2015 Plan and 2021 Plan (collectively, the “Plans”) is to enable us to offer to our employees, officers, directors and consultants, whose past, present and/or potential contributions to our company have been, are or will be important to our success, an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in our company. The Plans are administered by our Compensation, Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.

The Company’s Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information

The Company does not have any formal policy that requires the Company to grant, or avoid granting, equity-based compensation to its executive officers at certain times. Consistent with its annual compensation cycle, the Compensation, Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has for several years granted annual equity awards to its executive officers and directors following the Company’s annual meeting. The timing of any equity grants to executive officers in connection with new hires, promotions, or other non-routine grants is tied to the event giving rise to the award (such as an executive officer’s commencement of employment or promotion effective date). As a result, in all cases, the timing of grants of equity awards, including stock options, occurs independent of the release of any material nonpublic information, and the Company does not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of equity-based compensation.

No stock options were issued to executive officers in 2025 during any period beginning four business days before the filing of a periodic report or current report disclosing material non-public information and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such report with the SEC.

Anti-Hedging Policies

Under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, all officers, directors and employees are prohibited from engaging in hedging, pledging or shorting transactions.
