USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the selling stockholders.

S-6

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated January 12, 2026 (the “Merger Agreement”), we completed the acquisition of Condor Trading LP, a Delaware limited partnership and the parent company of BTIG, LLC and its other subsidiaries on June 1, 2026, and issued 6,600,535 shares of our common stock to the selling stockholders as partial consideration for the Transaction.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, we have agreed to file a registration statement (or a prospectus supplement to an already effective registration statement) under the Securities Act registering the resale of the Shares after the closing of the Transaction. In addition, we have agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration of the Shares for as long as the Shares held by the former equityholders of Condor Trading LP remain “registrable” pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The Shares will cease to be “registrable” upon, among other triggers, such Shares becoming eligible for public resale by the former equityholders of Condor Trading LP holding such Shares, together with their affiliates, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without any volume limitation.

The following table has been prepared based on information known to us and reflects holdings as of June 1, 2026. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act. The percentage of shares beneficially owned prior to the offering is based on 1,551,131,193 shares of our common stock actually outstanding as of May 28, 2026, and further giving effect to the Shares issued to the selling stockholders on June 1, 2026.

Prior to the Transaction, some of the selling stockholders were, or were affiliated with, directors, officers, employees or other service providers of Condor Trading LP or its subsidiaries and may, after our acquisition of Condor Trading LP, be employees or service providers of U.S. Bancorp or its subsidiaries. Except as disclosed herein (including such relationships and the Merger Agreement), as of the date hereof, the selling stockholders do not have, and within the past three years have not had, any position, office or other material relationship with us.

As used in this prospectus supplement, the term “selling stockholders” includes the selling stockholders listed in the table below and any of their permitted transferees, pledgees, distributees, donees and successors.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Shares are being registered to permit the resale of such securities by the selling stockholders from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will pay the expenses incurred to register the Shares, but the selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and brokerage commissions associated with sales of the Shares.

The selling stockholders may offer and sell the Shares from time to time at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to market prices, at a fixed price or prices subject to change or at negotiated prices, by a variety of methods. These prices will be determined by the selling stockholders or by agreement between the selling stockholders and underwriters or dealers who may receive fees or commissions in connection with such sale. Such sale may be effected by a variety of methods, including the following:

•

in market transactions, including transactions on a national securities exchange or quotations service or over-the-counter market;

•

in privately negotiated transactions;

•

distributions to members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders of the selling stockholders;

•

in a block trade in which a broker-dealer will attempt to sell a block of common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

•

through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals;

•

directly to one or more purchasers;

•

through agents; or

•

in any combination of the above or by any other legally available means.

In effecting the sales, the selling stockholders may arrange for brokers or dealers to participate. The selling stockholders may sell some, all or none of the Shares. Any selling stockholder may sell Shares covered by this prospectus supplement in private transactions or under Rule 144 of the Securities Act rather than pursuant to this prospectus supplement. In addition, the selling stockholders may transfer, devise or give the Shares by other means not described in this prospectus supplement. We do not know how long the selling stockholders will hold the Shares before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any of the selling stockholders regarding the sale of any of the Shares.

The selling stockholders and any underwriter, dealer or agent who participates in the distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act, and any discount, commission or concession received by such persons might be deemed to be an underwriting discount or commission under the Securities Act. If a selling stockholder is deemed to be an underwriter, the selling stockholder may be subject to statutory liabilities including, but not limited to, those of Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act. The selling stockholders and any other person participating in the distribution will be subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales by the selling stockholders and any other relevant person of any of the Shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to our common stock.

U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. and BTIG, LLC, both subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp, are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and may participate in distributions of the Shares. Accordingly, participation in the offer and sale of the Shares by U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. and BTIG, LLC or any other affiliate of ours that is a member of FINRA will conform with the requirements addressing conflicts of interest when distributing the securities of an affiliate set forth in Rule 5121.

Under the securities laws of certain states, our common stock may be sold in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, our common stock may not be sold unless

S-8

the common stock has been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain civil liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act. The selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify us against certain civil liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
