The risks described in our 2025 Form 10-K and below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.\n\nWe incurred a loss from operations of $2,135,909 during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a loss from operations of $594,244 in the same period in 2025.

Historically, we have incurred losses from operations, including a loss of $8,244,830 in the year ended December 31, 2025, and, as of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $58,009,222. Our business is capital intensive and, because our products are built to order with customized configurations, the lead time to build and deliver a unit can be significant. We may be required to purchase key components long before we can deliver a unit and receive payment. Changes in customer orders or lack of demand may also impact our profitability. There can be no assurance we will be able to increase our sales and achieve and sustain profitability in the future."}
