Investor update summary
16 Feb, 2026Voting and shareholder engagement
Proposal 2 seeks to increase authorized shares, with a yes vote supporting only the share increase, while a no or abstain also triggers a reverse stock split.
Outreach efforts have reduced the number of votes needed by 15%, with a current gap of under 40 million shares.
Institutional engagement has been strong, with all voting institutions supporting the proposals and ongoing efforts to secure remaining votes.
European and Asian shareholders face voting challenges due to broker and custodial issues, but solutions are being explored, especially for Europe.
If Proposal 2 fails, a reverse stock split will be necessary, with ratios discussed ranging from 1-5 to 1-10.
Financial strategy and obligations
Additional authorized shares are needed to meet contractual obligations from recent warrant and convertible deals, which could bring in up to $1.2 billion if exercised.
The convert deal replaced a high-interest term loan, reducing interest rates from 13-14% to 7%.
Cash use was reduced by at least 50% last year, with a focus on achieving EBITDA break-even by end of 2026.
