operate in an industry characterized by rapidly changing technologies and evolving industry standards. We believe that our future success depends on our ability to develop and introduce new technologies and products that generate new sources of
revenue to replace, or build upon, existing product revenue streams. If we are not able to repeatedly introduce, in successive years, new products or new generations of existing products that ship in volume and meet customer demands, our revenue
will likely not grow and may decline significantly and rapidly. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">To compete successfully, we must design, develop, market,

with product design, manufacturing, assembly, test, and qualification or marketing that could delay or prevent our development, introduction, or marketing of new or enhanced products. Although we believe our products comply with applicable industry
standards, our existing and new products may not fully conform under all circumstances, and we are unable to guarantee that proprietary enhancements in the future will fully conform with applicable industry standards under all circumstances as
industry standards evolve and change. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Products for our target markets are based on industry standards that are
continually evolving, and industry standards are often developed and promoted by larger companies who are industry leaders and provide other components of the systems into which our products are incorporated. In choosing products to develop, we also
make certain assumptions about which industry standards we believe will be adopted by industry leaders. For example, CXL connectivity solutions are in the early stages of market adoption. If our assumptions are incorrect, and larger companies do not
support the same industry standards that we do, or if competing standards emerge, it could be difficult for our products to meet the requirements of certain customers. As a result, if we fail to introduce new products or new generations of our
existing products that meet prevailing industry standards and the needs of our customers, or penetrate new markets in a timely fashion, and our designs do not gain acceptance, we will likely lose market share and our competitive position,
potentially on an extended basis, and our operating results will be adversely affected. </P>

covering security administration, segregation of duties, computer operations, system implementations, change management, complementary user controls for hosted systems, oversight activities for significant third-party vendors and others. In order to
maintain and improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as a public company, and once our material weaknesses have been remediated, we anticipate that we will continue to expend significant resources, including

designed to not only attack, but also to evade detection. Since the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to systems and data, or to otherwise sabotage them, change frequently and are often not recognized until launched against a target, we
may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. Geopolitical instability, such as the Israel-Hamas war or Russia&#146;s invasion of Ukraine, may increase the likelihood that we will experience direct or
collateral consequences from cyber conflicts between nation-states or other politically motivated actors targeting critical technology infrastructure. Accidental or willful security breaches or other unauthorized access to our information systems or
the systems of our third-party service providers, or the existence of computer viruses, malware (such as ransomware), or vulnerabilities in our or their data or software could expose us to a risk of information loss, business disruption, or
misappropriation of proprietary and confidential information, including information relating to our products or customers or the personal information of our employees or third parties. Despite our internal controls and investment in security
measures, we have in the past, and may again in the future, be subject to cyber-attacks or unauthorized network intrusions. These events, should they occur, could disrupt our business and result in, among other things, unfavorable publicity, damage
to our reputation, loss of our trade secrets and other competitive information, litigation by affected parties and possible financial obligations for liabilities and damages related to the theft or misuse of such information, significant remediation

the actual costs incurred by us and, as a result of a service provider&#146;s failure to perform, we may be unable to collect any damages. Although to date no such cyber security incidents have had a material adverse impact on our business, we

regulatory authorities or other third parties. Such proceedings could result in (among other things) unfavorable publicity, damage to our reputation, possible financial obligations for liabilities, and government orders to implement additional
protective measures or adopt new protocols, which could result in additional material expense. Further, customers and third-party manufacturing partners increasingly demand rigorous contractual, certification, and audit provisions regarding privacy,

harm our results of operations. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The semiconductor industry is extremely competitive. We currently compete with a
number of large domestic and international companies, some of which have greater financial, technical, and management resources than us. For example, we are facing, and expect we will continue to face, significant competition in the cloud data
center infrastructure market. Our Aries product family primarily competes with products offered by Montage Technology and Parade Technologies, Ltd. Our Taurus product family primarily competes with products offered by Broadcom Inc., Credo Technology
Group Holding Ltd., and Marvell Technology, Inc. Our Leo product family primarily competes with products offered by Marvell Technology, Inc., Microchip Technology Inc., Montage Technology, and Rambus Inc. Our efforts to introduce new products into
markets with entrenched competitors will expose us to additional competitive pressures. In addition, many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases, and greater sales, marketing and
distribution resources than we do and some operate and maintain their own fabrication facilities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Additionally, customer
expectations and requirements have been evolving rapidly. As a result, some of our competitors may be better situated to meet changing customer needs and secure design wins. Increasing competition in the markets in which we operate may negatively
impact our revenue and gross margins. For example, competitors with greater financial resources may be able to offer lower prices than us, or they may offer additional products, services or other incentives that we may be unable to match. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We also may experience discriminatory or anti-competitive practices by our competitors that could impede our growth, cause us
to incur additional expense or otherwise negatively affect our business. In addition, some of these competitors may use their market power to dissuade our customers from purchasing from us. The semiconductor industry has experienced significant
consolidation in recent years which has resulted in several of our competitors becoming much larger in terms of revenue, product offerings, and scale. Our competitors may also establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third
parties or may acquire companies that provide similar products to ours. We expect this trend to continue as companies attempt to improve the leverage of growing research and development costs, strengthen or hold their market positions in an evolving
industry, or are unable to continue operations. Companies that are strategic partners in some areas of our business may acquire or form alliances with our competitors, thereby reducing their business with us. We believe that industry consolidation
may result in stronger competitors that are better able to compete as sole-source vendors for customers. This could lead to more variability in our operating results. Any of these factors, alone or in combination with others, could harm our
business, financial condition, and results of operations and result in a loss of market share and an increase in pricing pressure. </P>

infrastructure market. In addition, unfavorable developments with evolving laws and regulations worldwide related to AI may limit global adoption, impede our strategy, and negatively impact our long-term expectations in this area. For example, we
anticipate that there will continue to be significant developing laws and regulations with respect to AI as the AI industry continues to develop. Even if the demand for cloud and AI compute infrastructure develop in the manner or in the time periods
we anticipate, if we do not have timely, competitively priced, market-accepted solutions available to meet our customers&#146; planned <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">roll-out</FONT> of their systems, particularly as they offer new AI

performance surveillance process and we believe that sources of supply for raw materials and components are generally adequate, it is difficult to predict what effects shortages or price increases may have in the future. Our inability to meet our
supply needs would jeopardize our ability to fulfill obligations under our contracts, which could, in turn, result in reduced sales and profits, contract penalties or terminations, and damage to our customer relationships. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Furthermore, increases in the price of certain raw materials may result in increased production costs and may result in a
decrease in our gross margins. For example, in the past the industry has seen substrate shortages. If these shortages or other shortages of raw materials are to occur in the future, it may cause delays in our ability to produce our products if we
are unable to secure adequate supply. Moreover, our third-party manufacturing partners may pass the increase in raw materials and commodity costs onto us, which would further reduce the gross margin of our products. To the extent that we are able to
pass along raw material price increases to some of our customers, there is often a delay between the time we are required to pay the increased price and the time we are able to pass these increases along. In addition, because we are a fabless
company, global market trends such as shortage of capacity to fulfill our fabrication needs also may increase our raw material costs and thus decrease our gross margins. </P>

components of their products or testing and manufacturing of their products that are outside of our control. We incur significant design and development costs in connection with designing our products for customers&#146; systems that may not
ultimately achieve market acceptance. If our customers experience changing market requirements, failed evaluations or field trials or incompatible deliverables from other service providers, they may delay, change or cancel a project, and we may have

applications are granted, the rights granted to us may not be meaningful or provide us with any commercial advantage. Additionally, our patents could be opposed, contested, narrowed,
circumvented, challenged, abandoned, or designed around by our competitors or be declared invalid or unenforceable in judicial or administrative proceedings. The patent prosecution process is expensive, time-consuming, and complex, and we may not be
able to file, prosecute, maintain, enforce, or license all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. It is also possible that we will fail to identify patentable aspects of our research and development
output in time to obtain patent protection. Failure to timely seek patent protection on products or technologies generally precludes us from seeking future patent protection on these products or technologies. Even if we do timely seek patent
protection, the coverage claimed in a patent application can be significantly reduced before a patent is issued, and its scope can be reinterpreted after issuance, and as a result we can give no assurance that any patents that have issued to may
issue in the future will protect our current and future products, will provide us with any competitive advantage, or will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented in the future. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The failure of our patents to adequately protect our products might make it easier for our competitors to offer similar
products or technologies. To the extent we pursue any foreign patent protection, it is unlikely that such protection would be as comprehensive as our U.S. patent protection and may not protect our intellectual property in some countries where our
products are sold or may be sold in the future. Many U.S.-based companies have encountered substantial intellectual property infringement in foreign countries, including countries where we sell products. Even if foreign patents are granted,
effective protection and enforcement in foreign countries may not be available. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Monitoring unauthorized use of our
intellectual property is difficult and costly. Although we are not aware of any material instances of unauthorized use of our intellectual property in the past, it is possible that unauthorized use of our intellectual property may have occurred or
may occur in the future without our knowledge. Despite our efforts, our failure to effectively protect our intellectual property could reduce the value of our solutions, and could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Further, we may in the future need to initiate infringement claims or litigation against third parties. Litigation, whether we are a plaintiff or a defendant, can be expensive, time-consuming, and may divert the efforts of our executives, technical
staff, and managerial personnel, which could harm our business, whether or not such litigation results in a determination favorable to us. </P>

liquidity event condition are satisfied, and upon vesting we anticipate withholding shares and remitting income taxes on behalf of the holders at the applicable statutory rates, which we refer to
as net settlement. Based on the number of RSUs outstanding as of December&nbsp;31, 2023, for which the time and service condition has been satisfied on that date, and assuming the liquidity event condition had been satisfied on that date, we
estimate that these income tax withholding and remittance obligations would be approximately $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;in the aggregate. We currently expect that the average of
these withholding tax rates will be approximately&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;%, based on the initial public offering price of
$&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;per share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and the income taxes due would be based on the then-current
value of the underlying shares of our common stock. The amount of these obligations could be higher or lower, depending on the price of shares of our common stock and the actual number of RSUs outstanding for which the time and service condition has
been satisfied on the initial settlement date for those RSUs. To settle these RSUs on the initial settlement date, we would expect to deliver an aggregate of
approximately&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;shares of our common stock to the RSU holders after withholding an aggregate of
approximately&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;shares of our common stock. In order to fund certain tax withholding and remittance obligations on behalf of our RSU holders, we expect to

Due to the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds
effectively could adversely affect our business. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade interest-bearing securities such as money market accounts, certificates of deposit, commercial
paper, and guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government. Our investments may not yield a favorable return to our investors. If we do not use the net proceeds that we receive in this offering effectively, our business, results of operations, and

grant equity awards to employees, directors, consultants, and advisors under our stock incentive plans. We may also raise capital through equity financings in the future. As part of our business strategy, we may acquire or make investments in
complementary companies, products, or technologies and issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition or investment. Any such issuances of additional capital stock may cause stockholders to experience significant dilution of their ownership
interests and the per share value of our common stock to decline. Any additional grants of equity awards under our stock incentive plans will also increase stock-based compensation expense and negatively affect our results of operations. Commencing
in June 2022, we began granting RSUs to employees. These RSUs vest upon the satisfaction of both a time and service condition and a liquidity event condition. In the quarter that we complete this initial public offering, we will record stock-based
compensation expense for all RSUs that have met the time and service condition to date. As of December&nbsp;31, 2023, no stock-based compensation expense had been recognized for RSUs because the liquidity event condition had not occurred. If our
initial public offering had occurred on December&nbsp;31, 2023, we would have recognized $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;of cumulative stock-based compensation expense on that date.
Furthermore, assuming our initial public offering had occurred on December&nbsp;31, 2023, on that date we would have had an additional unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of
$&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;relating to these RSUs. As a public company, our RSUs will only be subject to time and service-based vesting, and accordingly we expect to continue to
incur stock-based compensation expense as these RSUs vest. </P>

uncertainty as to whether courts in other states will enforce our Federal Forum Provision. If the Federal Forum Provision is found to be unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such an action. The Federal
Forum Provision may also impose additional litigation costs on stockholders who assert that the provision is not enforceable or invalid. The Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and the federal district courts of the United States may also
reach different judgments or results than would other courts, including courts where a stockholder considering an action may be located or would otherwise choose to bring the action, and such judgments may be more or less favorable to us than our

management and other personnel are expected to devote a substantial amount of time to support compliance with these requirements. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some

approximately $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;million (or approximately $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;million if the underwriters&#146; option to purchase additional
shares is exercised in full), based upon an assumed initial public offering price of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the
cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. </P>

of&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;million in the number of shares of our common stock offered by us would increase or decrease the net proceeds that we receive from this offering by

2023, the assumed initial public offering price of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and
an assumed&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; % tax withholding rate. Each $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed initial public offering of
$&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;price per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase or decrease the amount we would be
required to pay to satisfy our tax withholding and remittance obligations related to the RSU settlement by approximately $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; million. In addition, a 1% increase or decrease in the

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">As a particular product matures and unit volumes increase, we expect its pricing to decline, because there are generally
step-downs in pricing as production volumes ramp up. While individual product selling prices may decline, we seek to offer new features and functionality to increase the value of our products through generational upgrades. We believe our
differentiated products enable us to maintain or increase pricing over time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Our products have different margin profiles,
which are mainly dependent on their form factor. Our ICs carry a higher margin profile than our boards or modules. For example, our gross margins typically decrease on a percentage basis when we incorporate greater third-party hardware content, but
our revenue and gross profit per unit increase on a dollar basis. As we design and sell <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">higher-end</FONT> products, and release generational upgrades to existing products, we expect that our revenue and gross profit

allowance on our federal and state deferred tax assets as we have concluded that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (&#147;TCJA&#148;) requires taxpayers to capitalize and amortize
research and development expenditures under Internal Revenue Code Section 174 for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. The rule became effective for us during the year ended December 31, 2022 and resulted in the capitalization of research
and development costs which was offset by a valuation allowance. We will amortize these costs for tax purposes over 5 years for research and development performed in the U.S., and over 15 years for research and development performed outside of
United States. The effect of the TCJA has resulted in us reporting taxable income in 2022 despite incurring a net loss. </P>

likely than not to be sustained upon review by the tax authorities. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are classified in the consolidated financial statements as income tax expense. </P>

our consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with GAAP. These <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measures include non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss. We use these <FONT

Accordingly, we believe these <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measures are useful to investors and others because they allow for additional information with respect to financial measures used by management in its financial
and operational decision-making and they may be used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of our business. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of <FONT

the impact of stock-based compensation, a non-cash charge that can vary from period to period for reasons that are unrelated to our core operating performance. This metric also provides investors and other users of our financial information with an
additional tool to compare business performance across companies and periods, while eliminating the effects of items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to core operating performance. </P>

fourth quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2023. The increase in revenue through the third quarter of 2022 was driven primarily by increases in total product sales from both expansion within our existing customer base and sales to new
customers. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2022, we experienced sequential decreases in revenue largely due to excess inventory accumulated across many of our customer&#146;s supply chains. In 2021 and first half of 2022, the overall semiconductor
industry experienced a shortage of supply and extended delivery times. As a result of this supply shortage, many of our customers accumulated higher levels of inventory than normal in order to help minimize potential negative impacts from supply
shortages. In the second half of 2022, the industry supply shortages started to improve, and in response, some of our customers significantly decreased their ordering levels to lower their inventory balances resulting in lower product sales revenue
in the fourth quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2023. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit </I></B></P>

decreased consistent with the decrease in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022. In the first quarter of 2023, the large increase in cost of revenue was driven by a $9.7&nbsp;million write down of inventory in excess of our sales forecast for a
legacy customer system. In the second quarter of 2023, cost of revenue continued to decrease consistent with the decrease in revenue. </P>

from quarter to quarter and the fluctuation in revenue earned and cost of revenue incurred, as discussed above. In the first quarter of 2023, the large decrease in gross margins was driven by a write down of inventory in excess of our sales forecast
for a legacy customer system. In the second quarter of 2023, gross margins returned to more normalized levels. </P>

periods presented, except for the third quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023. For all quarters presented, employee costs such as salaries, benefits, and bonuses increased sequentially due to increases in headcount. In addition, the increase
in research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2022 and corresponding decrease in the third quarter of 2022 was due to $3.9 million of higher stock-based compensation related to secondary sales in the second quarter of 2022. The
increase in the fourth quarter of 2022 and corresponding decrease in the first quarter of 2023 was due to higher engineering mask and software license costs in the fourth quarter of 2022. </P>

and in the first quarter of 2023 and increased in the second quarter of 2023. The increase in the second quarter of 2022 and corresponding decrease in the third quarter of 2022 was due primarily to $6.4 million of higher stock-based compensation
related to secondary sales in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in the first quarter of 2023 and corresponding increase in the second quarter of 2023 was due to lower stock-based compensation recognized in the first quarter of 2023 due to
forfeitures of stock options, which reduced expenses in the first quarter of 2023. The fourth quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2023 did not have significant forfeiture of stock options. </P>

decrease in the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily related to lower employee costs such as salaries, benefits, and bonuses due to lower headcount. The decrease in the first quarter of 2023 was primarily related to general office related expenses.
The decrease in the second quarter of 2023 was primarily related to lower professional services fees. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Income Tax Provision

taxpayers to capitalize and amortize research and development expenditures under Internal Revenue Code Section 174 for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. The rule became effective for us during the year ended December 31, 2022 and resulted
in the capitalization of research and development costs which was offset by a valuation allowance. We will amortize these costs for tax purposes over 5 years for research and development performed in the U.S., and over 15 years for research and
development performed outside of the U.S. The effect of the TCJA has resulted in us reporting taxable income in 2022 despite incurring a net loss. </P>

working capital of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;million. Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash held in sweep accounts, checking accounts, money market funds, and commercial paper. Marketable securities are comprised
primarily of commercial paper, U.S. treasury and agency securities, corporate debt securities, foreign government bonds, and asset-backed securities. Our principal use of cash is to fund our operations and invest in research and development to
support our growth. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We have generated significant losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating
activities in the past as reflected in our accumulated deficit of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2023. Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through proceeds from the
issuance of our redeemable convertible preferred stock and cash generated from the sale of our products. We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12
months. Our future capital requirements, however, will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of our sales and marketing and research and development expenditures, the continuing market acceptance of our products,

cash and cash equivalents are held primarily for working capital purposes. Such interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. To date, fluctuations in interest income have not been significant. The primary objective of our
investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our
interest rate risk exposure. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we have not been exposed to, nor do we anticipate being exposed to, material risks due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates during any

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We prepare our financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
required certain estimates and assumptions to be made that may affect our consolidated financial statements. Accounting policies that have a significant impact on our results are described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included
elsewhere in this prospectus. The accounting policies discussed in this section are those that we consider to be the most critical. We consider an accounting policy to be critical if the policy is subject to a material level of judgment and if
changes in those judgments are reasonably likely to materially impact our results. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We base our estimates and judgments on
reasonably available information. Our estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We continue to monitor and assess our critical estimates in light of developments, and as new events occur and additional

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We recognize revenue upon transfer of control of promised goods and services in an amount that reflects the consideration it
expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, <I>Revenue from Contracts with Customers</I> (&#147;ASC 606&#148;), we apply the following five step approach: (1)&nbsp;identify the contract
with a customer, (2)&nbsp;identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3)&nbsp;determine the transaction price, (4)&nbsp;allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5)&nbsp;recognize revenue when, or
as, a performance obligation is satisfied. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Where an arrangement includes multiple performance obligations, the
transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price (&#147;SSP&#148;) basis. We determine the SSP based on an observable standalone selling price when it is available, as well as other factors,
including the price charged to customers and our overall pricing objectives, while maximizing observable inputs. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Accounts
receivable are recorded when the customer has been billed or the right to consideration is unconditional. We record deferred revenue when we have received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due from the customer, and we have a future
obligation to transfer products or services. From time to time, we have contracts with initial terms that include performance obligations that extend beyond one year. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We transact with customers primarily pursuant to standard purchase orders for delivery of products and do not allow customers
to cancel or change purchase orders within limited notice periods. We recognize product sales when control transfers to the customer, generally at the time of product shipment from its facilities, in an amount that reflects the consideration we
expect to receive in exchange for those goods, net of estimated sales returns, distributor price adjustments (&#147;DPA&#148;), rebates, and other customer incentives. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We sell the majority of our products to distributors at a fixed list price. Distributors are authorized to resell our products
to customers at a range of individually negotiated price points based on a variety of factors, including customer, product, quantity, geography, and competitive differentiation. The majority of our distributors&#146; resales are priced at a discount
from list price (the original purchase price). After the resale transaction is completed, we issue credit memos to the distributor for the price adjustments. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Sales to most distributors are made under programs common in the
semiconductor industry whereby distributors receive DPAs to meet individual competitive opportunities. These programs may include credits granted to distributors or price protection credits when our standard published prices are lowered from the

variable consideration that reduce the amount of revenue recognized. Our policy is to estimate such price adjustments based on our historical prices and contractual terms using the expected value method. To date, actual DPAs have been materially
consistent with the provisions we have made, based on our historical estimates. However, because of the inherent nature of estimates, there is always a risk that there could be significant differences between actual amounts and our estimates. We
also consider the constraint on estimates of variable consideration when estimating the total transaction price. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Our
customer programs involve volume-based rebates, which are designed to serve as sales incentives to resellers of our products in various target markets. We account for rebates as a reduction to revenue and accrue for potential rebates based on the
amount we expect to be claimed by customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Revenue is recognized net of taxes collected, which are subsequently
remitted to governmental authorities. Consideration payable includes cash amounts that we pay, or expect to pay, to a customer, and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Consideration payable also includes credits or other
items. We account for consideration payable to a customer as a reduction of the transaction price, and therefore, of revenue, unless the payment to the customer is in exchange for a distinct good or service that the customer transfers to us. </P>

We use the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model to determine the grant date fair value of stock options. For awards with service conditions only, stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period
of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. For awards with both service and performance conditions, stock-based compensation expense is recognized using the accelerated-attribution method over the estimated vesting period of the awards if
and when we conclude that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We reassess the probability of vesting at each reporting period for awards with performance conditions and adjust compensation expense based on its probability
assessment. We account for forfeitures as they occur. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We measure and recognize our stock-based compensation expense for
RSUs based on the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Our RSUs vest upon the satisfaction of both service and performance conditions. We recognize compensation expense for awards with both service and
performance conditions on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award and, for awards with performance conditions, when it concludes it is probable that the performance condition will be
achieved. We reassess the probability of vesting at each balance sheet date and adjust compensation expense based on the probability assessment. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We continue to use judgment in evaluating the expected volatility and expected term utilized in our stock-based compensation
expense calculation on a prospective basis. As we continue to accumulate additional data related to our common stock, we may refine our estimates of expected volatility and expected term, which could materially impact our future stock-based
compensation expense. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">As of June&nbsp;30, 2023, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs was
$32.2&nbsp;million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.2 years. In addition, if the listing and public trading of our common stock had occurred on June&nbsp;30, 2023, we would have recognized $44.6&nbsp;million of
stock-based compensation for all RSUs that had fully or partially satisfied the service-based vesting condition on that date. </P>

combinations of the income approach and the market approach with input from management. The income approach involves applying an appropriate risk-adjusted discount rate to projected cash flows based on forecasted revenue and costs. The market
approach estimates value based on a comparison of the subject company to comparable public companies in a similar line of business. From the comparable companies, a representative market value multiple was determined, which was applied to our
operating results to estimate the enterprise value of our company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Once the enterprise value was determined under the
market approach, we derived the equity value of our company and used a hybrid method that considered both an option pricing model (&#147;OPM&#148;) and the probability weighted expected return method (&#147;PWERM&#148;) to allocate that value among
the various classes of securities to arrive at the fair value of the common stock. The OPM is based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, which allows for the identification for a range of possible future outcomes, each with an
associated probability. The OPM is appropriate to use when the range of possible future outcomes is difficult to predict and thus creates highly speculative forecasts. PWERM involves a forward-looking analysis of the possible future outcomes of the
enterprise including an IPO as well as <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-IPO</FONT> market-based outcomes. After the equity value is determined and allocated to the various classes of shares, a discount for lack of marketability
(&#147;DLOM&#148;) is applied to arrive at the fair value of ordinary shares. A DLOM is applied based on the theory that as an owner of a private company stock, the stockholder has limited opportunities to sell this stock and any such sale would
involve significant transaction costs, thereby reducing overall fair market value. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">In addition, we also considered any

STYLE="white-space:nowrap">on-premise</FONT> computing. The widespread digitalization of tasks across industries and associated exponential growth of data has led to a rapid shift from <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">on-premise</FONT> to cloud
computing. Data generated in the cloud is forecasted by IDC to increase materially, from less than 20% of the world&#146;s data generation in 2022 to 32% by 2027. This shift towards the cloud is rapidly accelerating due to increasing demand for
compute-intensive AI workloads that are truly optimized only when deployed at cloud scale. According to Dell&#146;Oro, accelerated servers for AI applications represent the fastest growing segment of the server market with shipments forecasted to

customer demand for AI and other compute-intensive applications such as data analytics, scientific computing, recommendation engines and, most recently, GenAI are rapidly driving an increased need for accelerated computing since conventional
computing takes too long and is too expensive. GenAI is a type of AI that can create new content, such as images, videos, audio, text, and 3D models that requires a massive increase in computing resources. However, broad-based adoption of AI is
still in its early phases. According to Gartner<SUP STYLE="font-size:75%; vertical-align:top">&reg;</SUP>, by 2025, cloud-native platforms will serve as the foundation for more than 95% of new digital initiatives, up from less than 40% in 2021. This

scalability requirements of AI and other compute-intensive applications, hyperscalers have adopted heterogeneous, &#147;accelerated computing&#148; architectures to target specific workloads. AI accelerators such as GPUs, TPUs, and FPGAs, with their
massively parallel compute engines and high bandwidth connectivity to memory and data, are foundational to the AI infrastructure. A typical accelerated computing server consists of multiple AI accelerators (for example, eight in NVIDIA&#146;s HGX
platform) connected to a head node which comprises CPUs (two in NVIDIA&#146;s DGX platform), together with multiple NICs (ten in NVIDIA&#146;s DGX). To address increasingly larger and more complex AI workloads, hyperscalers interconnect tens of
thousands of GPUs and other AI accelerators that process workloads in parallel across thousands of servers to increase system compute capacity. Put simply, the data center has become the modern computer for AI workloads. </P>

CPUs, storage devices, and networking subsystems in an AI platform must deliver ever-increasing bandwidth. The connectivity topology also changes from a hierarchical network where a server connects to a switch, to a fabric network where AI
accelerators connect to each other directly within an AI cluster. This dense fabric connectivity is required since every AI accelerator needs full bandwidth and low latency access to each other. The net result is the number of high-speed links in an
AI cluster is growing rapidly. For example, in an NVIDIA GH200 cluster, we estimate that there are 15 high-speed links per AI accelerator. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">GPUs and other AI accelerators are connected to each other and to system devices over different protocols. There are
vendor-specific protocols such as NVLink and InfiniBand that exist alongside other industry standard protocols such as PCIe, Ethernet, and CXL. In response to the insatiable demand for interconnect performance, standards bodies such as The Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (&#147;IEEE&#148;), the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">PCI-Special</FONT> Interest Group <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(PCI-SIG),</FONT> and the CXL Consortium are fast tracking the release of new

performance. Thirty years later, this statement still holds true, especially with respect to memory-intensive applications such as AI where training LLMs on big datasets in a reasonable timeframe requires ultra-fast memory bandwidth and significant

small pieces that can each fit in a single AI accelerator memory subsystem and then interconnect many such AI accelerators to hold the entire AI model in their combined memory. GPUs and other AI accelerators need to be networked together at

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Our software suite provides three distinct capabilities to our customers:
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify"><B><I>Link Management</I></B><I>. </I>A critical purpose of our COSMOS software suite is to ensure secure and robust data
link communication between devices in a computing system. Software is authenticated using <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">on-chip</FONT> security modules which ensure only trusted-source microcode is executed and only trusted entities have
permission to update the microcode. Each data link typically includes a large number of data lanes. Our software autonomously manages data links over wide operating conditions to ensure reliable operation. Link formation is managed through
software-defined protocol engines which conform to industry standards (e.g., PCIe, Ethernet, and CXL) while maintaining the flexibility needed to support specific hyperscaler customer requirements. The link management software is application and
system-aware and can optimize signaling (e.g., equalization parameters or signal levels) and protocol parameters (e.g., data path latency or link state timeouts), based on the specific application or system needs. If a data link does become unstable
(e.g., due to overheating or degrading components), our software can retrain the link to restore stability or manage the data rate to ensure robust data communication. In some cases of link instability, our software can be empowered, depending on
customer preference, to autonomously act to restore link stability and normal operating conditions (e.g., throttling speed to mitigate over-temperature conditions). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify"><B><I>Fleet Management</I></B><I>. </I>COSMOS allows real-time monitoring of and predictive maintenance for server fleets. Our
hyperscaler customers gather detailed performance data over time from millions of links, including link performance. Data from device-level software components is communicated to platform-level software to provide fleet-level insights. This allows
for proactive and predictive maintenance of degraded hardware as well as reassignment of customer workloads to healthy hardware. The health analysis encompasses physical layer, protocol layer, and environmental factors. Device/module-level software
components maintain time-stamped event logs in light-weight formats which can be aggregated into fleet-level system event logs (SELs) and verbose formats which aid in triaging unexpected link incidents. Insights from
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">low-level</FONT> parameters (e.g., electrical eye opening, signal to noise ratio, bit error rate) and high-level parameters (e.g., device temperature, voltage supply levels, link stability) are communicated up to
platform-level monitoring software for fleet-level trend analytics. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify"><B><I>RAS. </I></B>Our software suite enables RAS
capabilities by detecting, reporting, and testing the data and memory links supported by our product families. A system&#146;s ability to operate continuously with a certain level of performance, while minimizing time needed to service that system,
is a critical aspect of a fleet&#146;s TCO. COSMOS software, particularly components running inside the device/module, enable RAS capabilities by detecting, reporting, and (in some cases) injecting errors in the links supported by our products. <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">On-chip</FONT> data integrity modules check for a variety of error conditions (e.g., data errors in attached memory media, errors in PCIe/CXL traffic, errors in <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">on-chip</FONT> memory), and
COSMOS software components running <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">on-chip</FONT> log/report these errors using standard protocol methods and specialized methods (e.g.,
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">out-of-band</FONT></FONT> signaling or customer-specific logging formats). In many cases, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">on-chip</FONT> hardware modules can correct for errors to
prevent the application performance from being affected. Still, in other cases, COSMOS software running on a system BMC/SMC can be used to trigger error injection for the purposes of testing system-level error handling and reporting mechanisms or to
measure link-level margin. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Specific capabilities enabled by our COSMOS software suite include: </P>

in the market price of our common stock; economic value-added; acquisitions or strategic transactions; operating income (loss); return on capital, assets, equity, or investment; stockholder returns; return on sales; gross or net profit levels;
productivity; expense efficiency; margins; operating efficiency; customer satisfaction; working capital; earnings (loss) per share of our common stock; bookings, new bookings or renewals; sales or market shares; number of customers, number of new

terms of growth, or as compared to results of a peer group, against the market as a whole, compared to applicable market indices and/or measured on a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-tax</FONT> or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">post-tax</FONT>

for each performance period. The bonus formulas will be adopted in each performance period by the compensation committee and communicated to each executive. The Corporate Performance Goals will be measured at the end of each performance period after
our financial reports have been published or such other appropriate time as the compensation committee determines. If the corporate performance goals and individual performance objectives are met, payments will be made as soon as practicable
following the end of each performance period, but not later than 74 days after the end of the fiscal year in which such performance period ends. Subject to the rights contained in any agreement between the executive officer and us, an executive
officer shall be required to be employed by us on the bonus payment date to be eligible to receive a bonus payment under the Bonus Plan. The Bonus Plan also permits the compensation committee to approve additional bonuses to executive officers in
its sole discretion. </P>

no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriters under the over-allotment option. The underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the over-allotment option or purchasing shares in the open market. In
determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of shares compared to the price available under the over-allotment option. The underwriters may also sell
shares in excess of the over-allotment option, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters
are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. As an additional means of facilitating this offering, the
underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of common stock in the open market to stabilize the price of the common stock. These activities may raise or maintain the market price of the common stock above independent market levels or prevent or
retard a decline in the market price of the common stock. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time. </P>

marketable securities, the grant date fair value of common stock warrants, the valuation and assumptions underlying stock-based compensation including the per share fair value of the Company&#146;s common stock, and the incremental borrowing rate

consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods, net of estimated sales returns, distributor price adjustments (&#147;DPA&#148;), rebates, and other customer incentives. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Company sells the majority of its products to distributors at a fixed list price. Distributors are authorized to resell
its products to their customers at a range of individually negotiated price points based on a variety of factors, including customer, product, quantity, geography, and competitive differentiation. The majority of the distributors&#146; resales are
priced at a discount from list price (the original purchase price). After the resale transaction is completed, the Company issues credit memos to the distributor for the price adjustments. </P>

reduce the amount of revenue recognized. The Company&#146;s policy is to estimate such price adjustments based on the Company&#146;s historical prices and contractual terms using the expected value method. To date, actual DPAs have been materially
consistent with the provisions the Company has made, based on its historical estimates. However, because of the inherent nature of estimates, there is always a risk that there could be significant differences between actual amounts and the
Company&#146;s estimates. The Company also considers the constraint on estimates of variable consideration when estimating the total transaction price. </P>

determined by the Company&#146;s board of directors, with input from management and the assistance of a third-party valuation firm. Because there is no public market for the Company&#146;s stock, the independent third-party valuations have generally
been performed annually in accordance with the guidance outlined in the AICPA Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation (AICPA&#146;s Practice Aid). In conducting the valuations, the independent
third-party valuation specialist considered all objective and subjective factors that it believed to be relevant for each valuation conducted in accordance with AICPA&#146;s Practice Aid, including the price paid by investors for the Company&#146;s
common and preferred stock, actual and forecasted operating and financial performance, market conditions, performance of comparable publicly-traded companies and transactions of comparable companies, developments and milestones within the Company,
the rights, preferences, and privileges of the Company&#146;s common and preferred stock, and the likelihood and timing of achieving a liquidity event. </P>

using various valuation methods, including combinations of the income approach (discounted cash flow method) and the market approach (public company market-multiple method) with input from the Company. The income approach involves applying an
appropriate risk-adjusted discount rate to projected cash flows based on forecasted revenue and costs. The market approach estimates value based on a comparison of the Company to comparable public companies in a similar line of business. From the
comparable companies, a representative market-value multiple was determined, which was applied to the Company&#146;s operating results to estimate the enterprise value of the Company. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets, which consist primarily of property and equipment, whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. Events or changes in circumstances that may indicate that an asset is impaired include significant decreases in the market value of
an asset, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future results of operations, a change in the extent or manner in which an asset is utilized, significant declines in the estimated fair value of the overall Company
for a sustained period, shifts in technology, loss of key management or personnel, changes in the Company&#146;s operating model, or strategy and competitive forces. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and the expected
undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss equal to the excess of the asset&#146;s carrying value over its fair value is recorded. Fair value is generally determined
based on the present value of estimated expected future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk involved, quoted market prices or appraised values, depending on the nature of the asset. There were no impairment charges of
long-lived assets for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2022. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Leases </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Company determines at contract inception whether an arrangement is a lease based on its ability to control a physically
distinct asset and determines the classification of the lease as either operating or finance. For all leases, the Company combines all components of the lease including related <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-lease</FONT> components as a single
component. The Company&#146;s operating lease <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">right-of-use</FONT></FONT> (&#147;ROU&#148;) assets represent the Company&#146;s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and
lease liabilities represent the Company&#146;s obligation to make lease payments related to the lease. The Company has also elected to utilize the short-term lease recognition exemption and, for those leases that qualify, the Company has not
recognized operating lease ROU assets or operating lease liabilities. The Company does not have any finance leases as of December&nbsp;31, 2022. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present
value of lease payments over the lease term. Operating lease ROU assets also include any initial direct costs and prepayments less lease incentives. As the Company&#146;s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its collateralized
incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date, including lease term, in determining the present value of lease payments. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise
the option. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Certain lease agreements may contain variable costs such as utilities and common area
maintenance. Variable lease costs are expensed when the cost is incurred. </P>

initial public offering are capitalized within other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The deferred offering costs will be offset against the proceeds received by the Company upon the closing of the planned initial public offering.
In the event the planned initial public offering is terminated, all of the deferred offering costs will be expensed within operating loss. As of December&nbsp;31, 2022, the deferred offering costs were not material. </P>

uncertainties in the application of accounting principles and complex tax laws. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Company uses the asset and liability
method to account for income taxes. Current income tax expense or benefit represents the amount of income taxes expected to be payable or refundable for the current year. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates applied to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">740-10,</FONT>

recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not accrue for contingent losses that, in its judgment, are considered to be reasonably possible. However, if the
Company determines that a contingent loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the possible loss in the consolidated financial statements. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss
contingencies are expensed as incurred. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Company records all shares of redeemable convertible preferred shares at their respective fair values less issuance costs
on the dates of issuance. The redeemable convertible preferred shares were recorded outside of stockholders&#146; deficit because, in the event of certain liquidation events, considered not solely within the Company&#146;s control, such as a change
in control event and sale of all or substantially all of the Company&#146;s assets, the redeemable convertible preferred shares would become redeemable at the option of the holders. </P>

currency transactions are initially measured and recorded in U.S. dollars using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the end of each reporting period using
the exchange rate at that date. Remeasurement gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Foreign exchange gains and losses were not material for the year ended

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">In determining the need for a valuation allowance, the Company reviewed both positive and
negative evidence pursuant to the requirements of ASC 740, <I>Income Taxes</I>, including current and historical results of operations, future income projections, and potential tax planning strategies. A significant piece of objective negative
evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended December&nbsp;31, 2022. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as its projections for future growth. On the basis of
this evaluation, as of December&nbsp;31, 2022, a valuation allowance of $21.3&nbsp;million has been recorded, which reflects an increase in the valuation allowance of $9.9&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2022. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">As of December&nbsp;31, 2022, the Company had gross federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$2.1&nbsp;million, which can be carried forward indefinitely, and state net operating loss carryforwards of $6.8&nbsp;million, which begin to expire in 2038. Net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards may become subject to an annual
limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant shareholders over a three-year period in excess of 50%, as defined under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, respectively, as well as
similar state provisions. This could limit the amount of tax attributes that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities. The amount of the annual limitation is determined based on the value of the Company immediately
prior to the ownership change. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years. The Company has performed a preliminary Section&nbsp;382 analysis and based on this analysis, it estimates that approximately
$0.2&nbsp;million of its federal R&amp;D credits will expire unutilized and has therefore removed them from the deferred tax asset and related carryforward disclosures as of December&nbsp;31, 2022. </P>

in the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely than not and a measurement process for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to
be taken in a tax return. In making this assessment, a company must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based solely on the technical merits of the position, and must assume that the
tax position will be examined by taxing authorities. </P>

executive officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service. These indemnification agreements will also require us to advance all expenses incurred by the directors and executive officers in investigating or defending
any such action, suit, or proceeding. We believe that these agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as directors and executive officers. </P>

investment may be harmed to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and executive officers as required by these indemnification provisions. At present, we are not aware of any pending litigation or
proceeding involving any person who is or was one of our directors, officers, employees or other agents or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
