Common Stock

 

This prospectus relates to the sale (the “Offering”) by selling shareholders (the “Selling Shareholders”) of up to 1,935,485 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Shares”), of Cosmos Health Inc. (the “Company,” “Cosmos” or “we”) issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants (the “Warrants”) sold to institutional investors and existing shareholders of the Company (the “Purchasers”), under a Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 20, 2023, between the Company and the Purchasers, which we refer to herein as the “Purchase Agreement.” The issuance of the Warrants was made in a Regulation D private placement (the “Concurrent Private Placement”) with a registered direct offering, pursuant to Registration Statement No. 333-267550. See “Selling Shareholders.”

 

The 1,935,485 Warrants were sold together with an aggregate of 2,116,936 shares of common stock at a combined offering price of $2.48 (the “Offering Price”). The Warrants were fully exercisable commencing six (6) months from the closing date, July 21, 2023, with an exercise price of $2.75 per share (each a “Warrant Share”) and expire 5.5 years from the date of issuance.

 

The Selling Shareholders may sell the Shares from time to time in the open market, on the Nasdaq Capital Market, in privately negotiated transactions, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or a combination of those methods. See also “Plan of Distribution” on page 15 for more information.

 

We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Shares by the Selling Shareholders. However, we may receive gross proceeds of up to $5,322,581 from the issuance of Shares upon exercise of the Warrants in full for cash at $2.75 per share.

 

Our common stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “COSM.” On August 30, 2023, the last trading day prior to the date of this prospectus, the closing price of the common stock on NASDAQ was $1.18.

 

Investing in our Offered Shares involves risks. You should carefully review the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” on page 8 and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read together with, the more detailed information and financial statements and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Before you decide to invest in our securities, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the risk factors and the financial statements and related notes included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

 

In this prospectus, unless otherwise noted, the terms “the Company,” “Cosmos,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Cosmos Health Inc.

 

Overview

 

Cosmos Health Inc. and its subsidiaries are an international healthcare group that was incorporated in 2009 and is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. Cosmos Health is engaged in the nutraceuticals sector through its own proprietary lines of products “Sky Premium Life” and “Mediterranation.” The Company is operating in the pharmaceutical sector, as well, through the provision of a broad line of branded generics and over-the-counter (“OTC”) medications. In addition, the group is involved in the healthcare distribution sector through its subsidiaries in Greece and UK serving retail pharmacies and wholesale distributors. The Company is strategically focused on the research and development (“R&D”) of novel patented nutraceuticals and specialized root extracts, as well as on the R&D of proprietary complex generics and innovative OTC products. Cosmos Health has developed a global distribution platform and is currently expanding throughout Europe, Asia and North America. The Company has offices and distribution centers through its three wholly-owned subsidiaries in Thessaloniki and Athens, Greece, and Harlow, United Kingdom.

The Company’s cross-border pharmaceutical business serves wholesale pharmaceutical distributors and independent retail pharmacies across the European Union (EU) through a network of two strategic distribution centers, one in Greece and one in the UK, as well as an additional warehousing facility. The Company focuses on leveraging its growing purchasing scale and supplier relationships to secure discounts and provide pharmaceuticals at reduced prices and on continuing to drive organic growth at attractive margins for its cross-border pharmaceutical wholesale business.

 

The Company operates in the business of full-line pharmaceutical wholesale distribution and serves approximately 1,500 independent retail pharmacies and 40 pharmaceutical wholesalers in Greece region by providing brand-name and generic pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and nutraceuticals. We invest in technology to enhance safety, distribution and warehousing efficiency and reliability. Specifically, the Company operates a fully automated warehouse system with three robotic systems, two ROWA™ types and one A-frame type, that ensure 0% error selection rate, accelerate order fulfillment, and yield higher cost-efficiency in our distribution center.

 

Taking into consideration the growing demand of various vitamins and nutraceuticals, the Company entered the market with its own brand of nutraceuticals: Sky Premium Life® (“SPL”). Our current business has provided us with access to wholesalers both from the sourcing and the sales division of our wholesale business. We sell our products to vendors that supply us with pharmaceutical products as well as to our clients to whom we currently sell pharmaceutical products. We serve this demand by offering quality products to our existing network of wholesalers and pharmacies. Pharmacies are still the key channels for distribution and sales of nutraceuticals in the European market. The development and manufacturing of our own line is assigned to a related party which operates according to our specifications and GMP protocols.

 

Moreover, our nutraceutical products have penetrated several markets during 2021 and early 2022 through digital channels such as Amazon and Tmall. We focus on nutraceutical products because we foresee it as a relatively underpenetrated market throughout Europe with the potential of high growth opportunities due to its large market size and margin contribution as the demand for nutraceutical products is increasing globally.

 

Corporate Information

 

Our principal executive offices are located at 141 W. Jackson Boulevard, Suite 4236, Chicago, Illinois 60604, and our telephone number is (312) 536-3102. On December 2, 2022, the Company’s stockholders, at our annual meeting, approved a resolution to amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation in order to change the Company’s name from “Cosmos Holdings, Inc.” to “Cosmos Health Inc.,” which was effective on December 15, 2022. At the annual meeting, our stockholders authorized a reverse stock split at the Board of Directors’ discretion. Concurrently, on December 15, 2022, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to adopt a 1 for 25 reverse stock split.

 

The Board of Directors determined that it was in the Company’s best interest to change the Company’s name to better reflect the Company’s evolution into an innovative global healthcare group with a focus on improving people’s lives. The enhancement with cutting edge technologies for the development of its pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products, through its vertical integrated ecosystem, will enable Cosmos Health to implement its goal of becoming a global healthcare group, committed to human health needs.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our common stock, you should carefully consider the specific risk factors discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” and as described or may be described in any subsequent quarterly report on Form 10-Q under the heading “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors,” as well as in any applicable prospectus and contained or to be contained in our filings with the SEC and incorporated by reference in this prospectus, together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus, or any applicable prospectus. For a description of these reports and documents, and information about where you can find them, see “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.” If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any prospectus or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Risks Associated with Our Business

 

Our business and our ability to implement our business strategy are subject to numerous risks, as more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 under Item 1A. “Risk Factors.” You should read these risks before you invest in our securities. We may be unable, for many reasons, including those that are beyond our control, to implement our business strategy. In particular, risks associated with our business include:

 

 

·

We have a history of significant losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future, and our future profitability is uncertain.

 

 

 

 

·

Our revenues are concentrated in the distribution and sale of branded and generic pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, OTC medications and medical devices. When these markets experience a downturn, demand for our products and revenues may be adversely affected.

 

 

 

 

·

We are subject to various regulations and compliance requirements under both the European Union, the European Medicines Agency (the “EMA”), the Hellenic Ministry of Health and other related regulatory agencies.

 

 

 

 

·

We face significant competition, including competition from larger and better funded pharmaceutical enterprises.

 

 

 

 

·

Taxation and transfer pricing could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

 

 

 

·

Currency exchange rate fluctuations could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

 

 

 

·

Cybersecurity risks and the failure to maintain the integrity of data could expose us to data loss, litigation and liabilities.

 

 

 

 

·

We are exposed to potential product liability or similar claims, and insurance against these claims may not be available to us at a reasonable rate in the future. Additionally, discovery of safety issues with our products could create product liability and could cause additional regulatory scrutiny and requirements for additional labeling, withdrawal of products from the market, and the imposition of fines or criminal penalties.

 

 

 

 

·

We may be unable to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

 

 

 

 

·

If you purchase our securities in this Offering, you may incur dilution.

 

 

 

 

·

Risks relating to this Offering

 

The Company has broad discretion in the use of proceeds.

 

We will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this Offering and may not use them effectively. As of July 21, 2023, Grigorios Siokas, our Chief Executive Officer, owned approximately 10.04% of our outstanding shares of common stock and 17.77% beneficially owned upon conversion of his derivative securities, which may give him the ability to control matters submitted to our stockholders for approval. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors or assets that we may opportunistically identify and seek to license or acquire or any collaborations that we may enter into with third parties for our product candidates, and any unforeseen cash needs. Because the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the proceeds from this Offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. See “Use of Proceeds.

 

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

 

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share of common stock in this Offering. We may sell shares of common stock or other securities in any other offering at a price per share of common stock that is less than the price per share of common stock paid by investors in this Offering, and investors purchasing shares of common stock or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing shareholders. The price per share of common stock at which we sell additional shares of common stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share of common stock paid by investors in this Offering.

 

Our stock price may be volatile.

 

The market price of our Common Stock has been and may continue to be volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

 

·

our ability to execute our business plan and complete prospective acquisitions;

·

changes in the nutraceutical & pharmaceutical industries;

·

competitive pricing pressures;

·

our ability to obtain additional capital financing;

·

additions or departures of key personnel;

·

limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our Common Stock;

·

sales of our Common Stock by existing shareholders, noteholders and warrant holders;

·

operating results that fall below expectations;

·

regulatory developments;

·

economic and other external factors;

·

period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results;

·

our inability to acquire pending acquisitions;

·

the public’s response to press releases or other public announcements by us or third parties, including filings with the SEC;

·

changes in financial estimates or ratings by any securities analysts who follow our Common Stock, our failure to meet these estimates or failure of those analysts to initiate or maintain coverage of our Common Stock; and

·

the development and sustainability of an active trading market for our Common Stock.

Table of Contents

 

In addition, the securities markets have from time-to-time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

 

Our shares of Common Stock are thinly traded, and the price may not reflect our value, and there can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of Common Stock either now or in the future.

 

Our shares of Common Stock are thinly traded, our Common Stock is available to be traded and is held by a small number of holders, and the price may not reflect our actual or perceived value. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of Common Stock either now or in the future. The market liquidity will be dependent on the perception of our operating business, among other things. We will take certain steps to increase awareness of our business. There can be no assurance that there will be any awareness generated or the results of any efforts will result in any impact on our trading volume. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business, and trading may be at an inflated price relative to the performance of the Company due to, among other things, the availability of sellers of our shares. If an active market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there is currently a relatively low per-share price for our Common Stock, many brokerage firms or clearing firms are not willing to effect transactions in the securities or accept our shares for deposit in an account. Many lending institutions will not permit the use of low-priced shares of Common Stock as collateral for any loans.

 

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock may cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.

 

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and, in anticipation of which, the market price of our Common Stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make it more difficult for us to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

 

No Prior Public Market for Warrants.

 

Prior to this Offering, there has been no public market for the Company’s Warrants. There is no assurance that such a market will develop or, if it does, that it will be sustained. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Warrant Shares by the Selling Shareholders. However, we may receive proceeds of up to $5,322,581 from the exercise of Warrants, if exercised in full for cash. We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include operating expenses, resale, development, capital expenditures and funding for pending or future acquisitions.

 

The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to us from this Offering. As a result, our management will have broad discretion regarding the timing and application of the net proceeds from this Offering. Investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds of this Offering. Pending their ultimate use, we intend to invest the net proceeds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments.

MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK

 

Our common stock is presently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “COSM”. On August 30, 2023, the last reported sale price of our common stock was $1.18.

 

As of August 14, 2023, we had 13,068,719 shares outstanding for common stock. We had approximately 171 registered holders of record of our common stock. A substantially greater number of holders of our common stock are “street name” or beneficial holders, whose shares of record are held through banks, brokers, other financial institutions and registered clearing agencies.

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have not declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock to date and do not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate that any cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. Our future payment of dividends will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, expansion plans, financial condition and other relevant factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Our accumulated deficit currently limits our ability to pay cash dividends.

 

REGISTERED DIRECT OFFERING / PRIVATE PLACEMENT

 

On July 20, 2023, Cosmos Health entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), for a registered direct offering and a concurrent private placement. On July 21, 2023, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold an aggregate of approximately $5,250,000 of securities, consisting of (i) 2,116,936 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per shares (“Common Stock”), (ii) 715,323 pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), and (iii) 1,935,485 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrants”). The Offering included approximately $450,000 of participation from Grigorios Siokas, CEO of Cosmos Health Inc. (without receiving any common warrants), as well as existing shareholders of the Company.

 

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrants were offered to certain purchasers whose purchase of shares of common stock in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if any such purchaser so chooses, Pre-funded Warrants, in lieu of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise result in such purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock. The public offering price of each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Common Warrant will be equal to the price at which one share of Common Stock and accompanying Common Warrant is sold to the public in this Offering, minus $0.0001, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded warrant will be $0.0001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The Pre-Funded Warrants and Common Warrants are immediately separable and were issued separately in this Offering, but must be purchased together in this Offering

 

The combined purchase price for one share of Common Stock and one Common Warrant was $2.48. The Common Warrants are exercisable commencing six (6) months from the closing date, July 21, 2023, have an exercise price of $2.75 per share and will expire five and one-half (5.5) years from the issuance date.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Company also agreed to amend existing warrants to purchase up to 782,610 shares of the Company’s common stock, with an exercise price of $11.50 per share, that were previously issued to the investors participating in this offering. Effective upon closing of this Offering, such existing warrants were amended to reduce the exercise price to $2.75 per share and the termination date extended to January 21, 2029. All the other terms of the existing warrants remained unchanged.

A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners acted as the sole placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in the Offering. The Offering was made pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-267550) previously filed with and declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 15, 2022.

 

The Warrants and Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants were offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, Purchasers of the Warrants may only sell Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants being sold to them in the Private Placement, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the resale of those Warrant Shares such as this prospectus included in a registration statement on Form S-3.

 

The Purchase Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and agreements of the Company and the Purchasers and customary indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to certain restrictions on the issuance and sale of its shares of Common Stock or Common Share Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) during the ninety (90) day period following the closing of the Offering.

 

A holder of Common Warrants (together with its affiliates) will not be able to exercise any portion of the Common Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the holder’s option upon issuance, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise. However, upon prior notice from the holder to the Company, a holder with a 4.99% ownership blocker may increase or decrease the amount of ownership of outstanding shares of Common Stock after exercising the holder’s Common Warrant up to 9.99% of the number of the Company’s shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Common Warrant, provided that any increase shall not be effective until 61 days following notice to us.

DESCRIPTION OF THE WARRANT SHARES

 

Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock

 

The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the shares of Common Stock and shares of preferred stock.

 

We have 400,000,000 shares of capital stock, par value $0.001 per share, authorized of which 300,000,000 are shares of Common Stock and 100,000,000 are shares of “blank check” preferred stock.

 

As of August 14, 2023, we had 10,068,719 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by 171 stockholders of record. The number of record holders does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of various broker-dealers and registered clearing agencies.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share. In addition, the holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to receive dividends ratably, if any, are declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds; however, the current policy of our board of directors is to retain earnings, if any, for operations and growth. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets that are legally available for distribution. The holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our Common Stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock, which may be designated solely by action of our board of directors and issued in the future.

 

Warrants

 

The Warrants issued under the Concurrent Private Placement were issued in certificated form. The following description is subject to the detailed provisions of the form of certificate for the Warrants (the “Warrant Certificate”). Reference should be made to the Warrant Certificate for the full text of attributes of the Warrants.

 

The Warrants are exercisable commencing six (6) months from the closing date, July 21, 2023. Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire, subject to adjustment as summarized below, one Warrant Share at an exercise price of $2.75 per Warrant Share on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 21, 2029, after which time the Warrant will be void and of no value. The Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company a duly executed notice of exercise, thereby canceling all or a portion of such holder’s Warrants. A holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that upon notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease such beneficial ownership limitation, provided that in no event shall such beneficial ownership limitation exceed 9.99% and any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.

 

The Warrants may be exercised on a “net” or “cashless” basis to the extent that the Company does not have an effective registration statement registering (or the related prospectus is not available for) the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. We have agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to maintain an effective registration statement and prospectus available for use relating to Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants until the expiration of the Warrants.

 

The Warrant Certificate will provide that the number of underlying Warrant Shares and exercise price of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of certain share dividends or distributions or of a subdivision or consolidation of the common shares or similar events.

 

 
- 13 -

Table of Contents

 

The Warrant Certificate will also provide that, during the period in which the Warrants are exercisable, it will give notice to holders of Warrants of certain stated events, at least 5 days prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, of such events.

 

In connection with a Fundamental Transaction, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, holders of the Warrants will have the right to receive, upon exercise, the same consideration as holders of common shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, in addition to any additional consideration receivable by holders of common shares in connection with such Fundamental Transaction. Holders of the Warrants will also have the option, within 30 days of the closing of a Fundamental Transaction, to require the Company (or its successor) to repurchase their Warrants in cash or, if the Fundamental Transaction is not in the Company’s control, in the consideration received by other holders of common shares in respect of such Fundamental Transaction, at a value determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

There is currently no market through which the Warrants may be sold, and the Purchasers may not be able to resell the Warrants purchased in the Private Placement. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issuable upon the exercise of any Warrants. Holders of Warrants will not have any voting or pre-emptive rights or any other rights which a holder of common shares would have, except as set forth in the Warrants.

 

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

 

The Warrant Shares being offered by the Selling Shareholders are those issuable to the Selling Shareholders, upon exercise of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of the Warrants and Warrants Shares, see “Description of the Warrant Shares” above. We are registering the Warrant Shares in order to permit the Selling Shareholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the shares of common stock and the Warrants, the Selling Shareholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years, except as noted.

 

The table below lists the Selling Shareholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by each of the Selling Shareholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each Selling Shareholder, based on (his) its ownership of the shares and Warrants, as of the date of this prospectus, assuming exercise of the Warrants held by the Selling Shareholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises.

 

The third column lists the Warrant Shares being offered by this prospectus by the Selling Shareholders.

 

In accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement with the Selling Shareholders, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, determined as if the outstanding Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the Warrant Shares offered by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Under the terms of the Warrants, a Selling Shareholder may not exercise the Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such Selling Shareholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of Warrant Shares (“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”) which would exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of our then outstanding Shares following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the second and fourth columns do not reflect this limitation. The Selling Shareholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

The warrants are subject to a Beneficial Ownership Limitation of 4.99%, which such limitation restricts the Selling Stockholder from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of shares of common stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.  The address of Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. is c/o Armistice Capital, LLC, 510 Madison Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10022.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Each Selling Shareholder of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

 

·

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

 

 

 

·

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

 

 

 

 

·

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

 

 

 

·

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

 

 

 

·

privately negotiated transactions;

 

 

 

 

·

settlement of short sales;

 

 

 

 

·

in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

 

 

 

·

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

 

 

 

·

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

 

 

 

·

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

 
- 15 -

Table of Contents

 

The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Shareholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Shareholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the shares of common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the shares of common stock by the Selling Shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

As of August 14, 2023, we had 13,068,719 shares of common stock outstanding. Of this amount 987,398 shares of common stock held by existing shareholders are deemed “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 and may not be resold except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration, including Rule 144. As of the date of this prospectus, all of such shares are currently eligible for sale, subject to the limitations of Rule 144.

 

Rule 144

 

In general, under Rule 144, a person who is not our affiliate and has not been our affiliate at any time during the preceding three months will be entitled to sell any shares of our share capital that such person has held for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates, without regard to volume limitations. Sales of our share capital by any such person would be subject to the availability of current public information about us if the shares to be sold were held by such person for less than one year.

 

In addition, under Rule 144, a person may sell shares of our share capital acquired from us immediately upon the completion of this offering, without regard to volume limitations or the availability of public information about us, if:

the person is not our affiliate and has not been our affiliate at any time during the preceding three months;

 

 

 

 

·

and the person has beneficially owned the shares to be sold for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates.

 

Our affiliates who have beneficially owned shares of our share capital for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than another of our affiliates, would be entitled to sell within any three-month period those shares and any other shares they have acquired that are not restricted securities, provided that the aggregate number of shares sold does not exceed the greater of:

 

 

·

1% of the number of shares of our authorized share capital then outstanding, which will equal approximately 130,687 shares of common stock as of the date of this prospectus; or

 

 

 

 

·

the average weekly trading volume in our shares of common stock on Nasdaq during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to such sale.

 

Sales under Rule 144 by our affiliates are generally subject to the availability of current public information about us, as well as certain “manner of sale” and notice requirements.
