Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS	NOTE 1 — NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS Corporate History Nexalin Technology, Inc. (“NV Nexalin”) was formed on October 19, 2010 as a Nevada corporation. The Company’s principal offices are located at 1776 Yorktown, Suite 550, Houston, Texas 77056. On September 6, 2019, Neuro-Health International, Inc. (“Neuro-Health”), a Nevada corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of NV Nexalin, was formed. Neuro-Health had no activity from December 6, 2019 (Inception) through March 31, 2025. On November 22, 2021, NV Nexalin entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Nexalin Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Nexalin”, or the “Company”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, NV Nexalin merged with and into Nexalin with all shareholders of NV Nexalin receiving one common share of Nexalin in exchange for twenty shares of NV Nexalin held at the time of the Merger Agreement. NV Nexalin treated the transaction as a corporate reorganization with the historical consolidated financial statements of NV Nexalin becoming the historical consolidated financial statements of Nexalin. Nexalin had nominal assets and liabilities and did not conduct any operations prior to the reorganization other than its incorporation. NV Nexalin has retroactively applied the 20-for-1 exchange, effective on November 22, 2021, to share and per share amounts. NV Nexalin’s authorized shares of common stock were not affected as a result of the Merger Agreement. As a result of the Merger Agreement, NV Nexalin was dissolved, and Neuro-Health became a subsidiary of Nexalin. Our shares and warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market tier of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on September 16, 2022, under the symbols “NXL” and “NXLIW”, respectively. Throughout this report, the terms “Nexalin,” “our,” “we,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to Nexalin Technology, Inc. Business Overview We design and develop innovative neurostimulation products to uniquely and effectively help combat the ongoing global mental health epidemic. We developed an easy-to-administer medical device — referred to as "Generation 1” or "Gen-1” — that utilizes bioelectronic medical technology to treat anxiety, insomnia and depression without the need for drugs or psychotherapy. Our original Gen-1 devices are cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) devices that emit a waveform at 4 milliamps during treatment and are presently classified by the FDA as a Class II device. Medical professionals in the United States have utilized the Gen-1 device to administer treatment to patients in clinical settings. While the Gen-1 device had been cleared by the FDA to treat depression, anxiety, and insomnia, three prevalent and serious diseases, because of the FDA’s December 2019 reclassification of CES devices, the Gen-1 device was reclassified as a Class II device for the treatment of anxiety and insomnia. We are required to file a new application under Section 510(k) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act ("510(k) Application”) to be approved by the FDA for the sales and marketing of our devices for the treatment of anxiety and insomnia. In the FDA’s December 2019 reclassification ruling, the treatment of depression with our device will require a Class III certification and require a new PMA (premarket approval) and/or a new De Novo application to demonstrate safety and effectiveness. While we continue providing services to medical professionals to support patients’ use of the Gen-1 devices which were in operation prior to December 2019, we are not making new sales or new marketing efforts of Gen-1 devices in the United States. We continue to derive revenue from devices which we sold or leased prior to the FDA’s December 2019 reclassification announcement. This revenue consists of monthly licensing fees and payments for the sale of electrodes and patient cables. We have paused marketing efforts for new sales of our Gen-1 device for treatment of anxiety and insomnia in the United States. Our regulatory team continues to have discussions with the FDA regarding the suspension of the marketing and sale of the Gen-1 products to new providers. Beginning in 2019, Nexalin engineers began the testing and design of a new advanced 15 milliamp waveform that became the basis of our new “Generation 2” or “Gen-2” and new “Generation 3” or “Gen-3” medical devices. Today the Gen-2 is branded under a new trademark name known as “SYNC”, the Gen-3 is branded under a new trademark name known as “HALO”. The Gen-2 SYNC and Gen-3 HALO are in the Q-submission process for review by the FDA. This process allows Nexalin to get clear, specific, written feedback from the FDA on indications, device classification and clarity on the regulatory pathway and improves the efficiency and predictability of the regulatory pathway. Determinations of the safety and efficacy of our devices in the United States are solely within the authority of the FDA. We plan to conduct decentralized clinical trials for the Gen-2 SYNC and Gen-3 HALO devices in the U.S. and we will continue to consult with the FDA as part of the pre-submission process. If and when we obtain FDA clearance for the Gen-2 SYNC and/or the Gen-3 HALO device, we will begin the commercialization of our devices for sale in the U.S. and other territories, given the potential unmet demand for the treatment of mental health conditions. Nexalin’s new advanced waveform technology will be emitted at 15 milliamps through our new and improved medical devices referred to as Gen-2 SYNC and Gen-3 HALO. The new Gen-2 SYNC is a clinical use device with a modern enclosure to emit the new 15 milliamp advanced waveform. The Gen-3 HALO is a new patient headset we intend to be prescribed by licensed medical professionals in a virtual clinic setting similar to existing tele-health platforms. The Nexalin research team believes that the new 15 milliamp SYNC and HALO devices can penetrate deeper into the brain and stimulate deep brain structures that contribute to or cause mental illness, which we believe will generate enhanced patient response without any risk or unpleasant side effects. The Nexalin regulatory team has made a strategic decision to develop strategies for pilot trials and/or pivotal trials in various mental health disease states. In addition, a new PMA application in the United States will be in development for the treatment of depression utilizing both Gen-2 SYNC and Gen-3 HALO. We plan to develop a strategic schedule to execute additional pilot trials and/or pivotal trials for the new Gen-3 HALO device for anxiety and insomnia in the United States, Brazil and China beginning in the third or fourth quarter of 2025. Preliminary data provided by The University of California, San Diego and recent published data from Asia supports the safety of utilizing our 15 milliamp waveform technology. However, the determination of safety and efficacy of medical devices in the United States is subject to clearance by the FDA. Additionally, a new pre-submission document in preparation of a new 510(k) and/or de novo for our Gen-3 Halo headset at 15 milliamps was filed with the FDA in January of 2023. Formal comments to our pre-submission document filing were received in March of 2023. A formal meeting to address FDA comments took place on May 9, 2023. Minutes of the meeting with the FDA were filed with the FDA on May 16, 2023. A second FDA pre-submission document was submitted on February 13, 2024. FDA comments to this second pre-submission document were received on April 26, 2024. A formal teleconference was held with the FDA on April 30, 2024. The Nexalin regulatory team and the FDA came to a consensus on the Anxiety and Insomnia Clinical research protocols. In part due to increasing incidence attributed to the devastating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health and cognitive disorders are widespread across the globe and cause substantial health, social and economic losses, and hardships. Our focus is on the continued development of our innovative bioelectronic medical technologies and rapid regulatory approval. We intend to help reverse these losses and the hardships of these losses, by safely and effectively treating various mental health disorders associated with post Covid and long Covid mental disease states. All our products are non-invasive, safe and undetectable to the human body and can provide relief to those afflicted with mental health issues without adverse side effects. We have a proprietary and protected design that stabilizes currents, electromagnetic fields, and various frequencies — referred to collectively as a waveform - particularly our proprietary, 15 milliamp patented waveform. Additionally, our devices generate a high frequency carrier wave for deeper penetration into the brain. It is applied to the brain with an array of electrodes on the forehead and behind each ear at the mastoid. The features of this proprietary waveform and the array of electrodes allow the application of the waveform to the entire brain rather than a small, targeted area of the brain. To ensure deeper penetration into the brain, our new advanced waveform is undetectable which allows the increased power from < 4 mAmps to 15 mAmps, more than a 400% increase without incurring any patient discomfort, risk, or adverse side effects. By increasing the power, our waveform can penetrate deeper into the brain and stimulate deep mid-brain structures associated with mental illness. Our research and clinical teams believe that a more powerful waveform will create a stronger response in the brain. A stronger response creates a higher level of efficacy. This entire proprietary technique allows Nexalin to provide a non-invasive frequency based waveform that provides a comfortable treatment that is undetectable to the patient and is more powerful than other stimulation devices on the market. Current pilot study protocols and randomized clinical trials have been designed and submitted to the FDA to provide feedback on final reports and data sets for the purpose of safety and efficacy evaluations in the future. Determinations of the safety and efficacy of our devices are solely within the authority of the FDA. Currently, the waveform that comprises the basis of Gen-2 SYNC clinical and HALO headset devices has been tested in research settings to develop safety data that has been submitted for review by the FDA for safety evaluation and eventual marketing in the United States and around the world. Determinations of the safety and efficacy of our devices in the United States are solely within the authority of the FDA. Strategic plans are in development to use the data from these clinical trials to support an application for the CE-mark of our SYNC clinical and HALO headset devices in the European Union. The global rise in mental health and cognitive disorders is causing widespread suffering and hardship. These conditions have far-reaching consequences for individuals, families, and communities. Our focus is on the continued development of our innovative bioelectronic medical technologies and regulatory approval. Our intention is to help reverse these losses, and the hardships of these losses, by safely and effectively treating various mental health disorders associated with post Covid and long Covid mental disease states. Beyond the well-known safety, efficacy, and side-effect concerns surrounding conventional mental health treatments such as Electro-Convulsive Therapy (ECT), drugs, and psychotherapy, the stigma associated with mental illness continues to hinder individuals from seeking the help they need. We have received industry reports and feedback that many patients that struggle with mood disorders have the stigma of embarrassment associated with psychiatrists and psychotherapy (e.g., counselling with a therapist). Additional stigmas and other issues are associated with the side effects and dependance of medication prescribed by psychiatrists. To address the embarrassment stigma, we are developing a new virtual clinic that will allow the physician to diagnose a mental health issue in the privacy of a tele-psychiatry virtual platform. After diagnosis, the physician can prescribe the Nexalin Gen-3 HALO headset to the patient for treatment. Next, the HALO device will be shipped to the patient’s home. After the patient receives the device, they will pair the headset device with an app in the patient’s smart phone. The app will communicate with the Nexalin cloud servers to authorize the device for treatment according to the protocol designed by the physician. The physician will monitor treatment compliance and other health related issues in a private physician dashboard that connects through the Nexalin app and cloud servers. We believe that to preserve product safety and integrity for home use, the headset device will require physician oversight that will include a prescription for use with a monthly authorization provided by the physician after a monthly virtual visit. All appointments will be in a virtual setting to provide privacy and convenience for the physician and patient. The Nexalin virtual clinic will be provided in a proprietary virtual platform currently in the design stage. Our original China Gen-2 15 milliamp device was approved in China by the China National Medical Products Administration (the "NMPA”) for the treatment of insomnia and depression in China. This device and all other clinical devices will include single use electrodes for long term revenue streams. The USA Gen-2 SYNC device bears a fresh and modern appearance that meets the technology standards of the digital tech world of 2025. Early adopters of the Gen-1 device will be able to access additional firmware upgrades which are planned to enhance the previously purchased and leased devices to the new symmetric15-milliamp waveform. Our Gen-2 SYNC device will be equipped with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology that exchanges electrode usage data with a reader in the main device. The purpose of RFID is to track and maintain control of the proprietary single use electrode. Our electrode chip will be programmed to exchange data with the device and allow activation for a single treatment with a new electrode only. This ensures a recurring revenue stream on the device and protects against any generic knockoffs designed to avoid treatment costs. This upgrade in technology also ensures the proprietary nature of the electrodes that support treatment outcomes. Overall, we believe that our advanced waveform, technological upgrades and the development of a modern headset monitored with our IT management platform will position us with the opportunity to disrupt the traditional mental health treatment model. Our mission is to remove the stigma of expensive psychotherapy or pharmaceuticals with the attendant side effects and dependency issues and replace such stigma with clinically proven and cost-effective technology that is easily accessible in the privacy of the patient’s home and monitored by licensed healthcare providers. On May 31, 2023, the Company formalized an agreement related to the formation of a joint venture established to engage in the clinical development, marketing, sale and distribution of Nexilin’s Gen-2 SYNC device in China and other countries in the region. The Joint Venture is registered in Hong Kong. Under the Joint Venture Agreement, Wider Come Limited (“Wider”), a related party, is obligated to fund all operations for the initial 12-month period of the Joint Venture, after which Nexalin and Wider plan to jointly fund the Joint Venture’s operating expenses in accordance with their pro rata ownership. The Joint Venture conducts research, development and clinical studies of our devices, which supplements similar activities being conducted by Nexalin in the United States. The Joint Venture is responsible for funding all clinical trial and development costs incurred in China. We share associated economic responsibility for these expenses under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement. The Joint Venture may provide clinical safety and efficacy data to support study designs of trials conducted in the U.S. This data will serve as an important regulatory precursor towards the advancement of our efforts in securing 510(k) and/or De Novo clearance from the FDA for our devices. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have no employees or an office in China and none of our operations are conducted in China. The Joint Venture does not maintain any variable interest entity structure or operate any data center in China. The Joint Venture is controlled by a Board of Directors in which Wider has sole representation but neither the Company nor Wider has exclusive decision-making ability over day-to-day or significant operational decisions. Wider and Nexalin own 52% and 48% of the Joint Venture, respectively. In accordance with ASC 323 Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”) and ASC 810 - Consolidations (“ASC 810”), the Company recognized $(1,048) and $5,783 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 of equity method investment income (loss) from the Joint Venture on a one-quarter reporting lag, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The investment in the Joint Venture is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company had an Equity Method Investment of $0 and $864, respectively, recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with ASC 323, the Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in the Joint Venture, an unconsolidated entity over which it does not have a controlling interest. The equity method of accounting requires the investment to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of equity in the unconsolidated entity’s earnings or losses. The Company evaluates the carrying amount of this investment in the Joint Venture for impairment in accordance with ASC 323. If the Company determines that a loss in the value of the investment is other than temporary, the Company writes down the investment to its estimated fair value. Any such losses are recorded to equity in income of unconsolidated entities in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company has made an election to classify distributions received from the Joint Venture using the nature of the distribution approach. Distributions received are classified as cash inflows from operating activities based on the nature of the activities of the unconsolidated entity. In addition to our core business model, we have also formed a Military & Government Advisory Board aimed at fostering and enhancing relationships within and throughout United States federal government and public sector organizations, including the U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In conjunction with our ongoing clinical trials, our goals include the broad deployment of our devices within the U.S. military and government agencies. Continued Nasdaq Listing Our shares of our common stock are listed on the Capital Market tier of the Nasdaq Stock Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “NXL.” Nasdaq has rules for continued listing, including, without limitation, minimum market capitalization, minimum stockholders’ equity and other requirements. In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other continued listing requirements and standards, including the Minimum Bid Price Rule (as discussed below) and those regarding director independence and independent committee requirements, minimum stockholders’ equity, and certain corporate governance requirements. There can be no assurances that we will be able to comply with the applicable listing standards. Minimum Bid Price Requirement We are required to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. On May 10, 2023, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it was no longer in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, as the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below $1.00 per share as set forth in the Nasdaq listing rules. The Company was afforded 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2023, to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules. The Company was unable to regain compliance with the bid price requirement by November 6, 2023. The Company requested a second 180-day period in order to regain compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5550(a)(2). On January 18, 2024, the Nasdaq Hearing Panel granted the Company a temporary exception to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule until March 27, 2024, which date was further extended by the Panel until April 25, 2024. On April 23, 2024, the Company received notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Rule 5550(a)(2). On September 23, 2024, we received a notice from Nasdaq notifying us that we were not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.

Our original China Gen-2 15 milliamp device was approved in China by the China National Medical Products Administration (the "NMPA”) for the treatment of insomnia and depression in China. This device and all other clinical devices will include single use electrodes for long term revenue streams. The USA Gen-2 SYNC device bears a fresh and modern appearance that meets the technology standards of the digital tech world of 2025. Early adopters of the Gen-1 device will be able to access additional firmware upgrades which are planned to enhance the previously purchased and leased devices to the new symmetric15-milliamp waveform. Our Gen-2 SYNC device will be equipped with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology that exchanges electrode usage data with a reader in the main device. The purpose of RFID is to track and maintain control of the proprietary single use electrode. Our electrode chip will be programmed to exchange data with the device and allow activation for a single treatment with a new electrode only. This ensures a recurring revenue stream on the device and protects against any generic knockoffs designed to avoid treatment costs. This upgrade in technology also ensures the proprietary nature of the electrodes that support treatment outcomes.

Overall, we believe that our advanced waveform, technological upgrades and the development of a modern headset monitored with our IT management platform will position us with the opportunity to disrupt the traditional mental health treatment model. Our mission is to remove the stigma of expensive psychotherapy or pharmaceuticals with the attendant side effects and dependency issues and replace such stigma with clinically proven and cost-effective technology that is easily accessible in the privacy of the patient’s home and monitored by licensed healthcare providers.

On May 31, 2023, the Company formalized an agreement related to the formation of a joint venture established to engage in the clinical development, marketing, sale and distribution of Nexilin’s Gen-2 SYNC device in China and other countries in the region. The Joint Venture is registered in Hong Kong.

Under the Joint Venture Agreement, Wider Come Limited (“Wider”), a related party, is obligated to fund all operations for the initial 12-month period of the Joint Venture, after which Nexalin and Wider plan to jointly fund the Joint Venture’s operating expenses in accordance with their pro rata ownership. The Joint Venture conducts research, development and clinical studies of our devices, which supplements similar activities being conducted by Nexalin in the United States. The Joint Venture is responsible for funding all clinical trial and development costs incurred in China. We share associated economic responsibility for these expenses under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement. The Joint Venture may provide clinical safety and efficacy data to support study designs of trials conducted in the U.S. This data will serve as an important regulatory precursor towards the advancement of our efforts in securing 510(k) and/or De Novo clearance from the FDA for our devices.

As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have no employees or an office in China and none of our operations are conducted in China. The Joint Venture does not maintain any variable interest entity structure or operate any data center in China.

The Joint Venture is controlled by a Board of Directors in which Wider has sole representation but neither the Company nor Wider has exclusive decision-making ability over day-to-day or significant operational decisions. Wider and Nexalin own 52% and 48% of the Joint Venture, respectively. In accordance with ASC 323 Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”) and ASC 810 - Consolidations (“ASC 810”), the Company recognized $(1,048) and $5,783 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 of equity method investment income (loss) from the Joint Venture on a one-quarter reporting lag, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The investment in the Joint Venture is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company had an Equity Method Investment of $0 and $864, respectively, recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with ASC 323, the Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in the Joint Venture, an unconsolidated entity over which it does not have a controlling interest. The equity method of accounting requires the investment to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of equity in the unconsolidated entity’s earnings or losses. The Company evaluates the carrying amount of this investment in the Joint Venture for impairment in accordance with ASC 323. If the Company determines that a loss in the value of the investment is other than temporary, the Company writes down the investment to its estimated fair value. Any such losses are recorded to equity in income of unconsolidated entities in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company has made an election to classify distributions received from the Joint Venture using the nature of the distribution approach. Distributions received are classified as cash inflows from operating activities based on the nature of the activities of the unconsolidated entity.

In addition to our core business model, we have also formed a Military & Government Advisory Board aimed at fostering and enhancing relationships within and throughout United States federal government and public sector organizations, including the U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In conjunction with our ongoing clinical trials, our goals include the broad deployment of our devices within the U.S. military and government agencies.

Continued Nasdaq Listing

Our shares of our common stock are listed on the Capital Market tier of the Nasdaq Stock Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “NXL.” Nasdaq has rules for continued listing, including, without limitation, minimum market capitalization, minimum stockholders’ equity and other requirements. In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other continued listing requirements and standards, including the Minimum Bid Price Rule (as discussed below) and those regarding director independence and independent committee requirements, minimum stockholders’ equity, and certain corporate governance requirements. There can be no assurances that we will be able to comply with the applicable listing standards.

Minimum Bid Price Requirement

We are required to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. On May 10, 2023, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it was no longer in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, as the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below $1.00 per share as set forth in the Nasdaq listing rules. The Company was afforded 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2023, to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules. The Company was unable to regain compliance with the bid price requirement by November 6, 2023.

The Company requested a second 180-day period in order to regain compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5550(a)(2). On January 18, 2024, the Nasdaq Hearing Panel granted the Company a temporary exception to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule until March 27, 2024, which date was further extended by the Panel until April 25, 2024. On April 23, 2024, the Company received notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Rule 5550(a)(2).

On September 23, 2024, we received a notice from Nasdaq notifying us that we were not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we had 180 calendar days, or until March 24, 2025, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. On October 31, 2024, the Company received notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Rule 5550(a)(2).

Minimum Stockholder Equity Requirement

Under the Nasdaq listing rules, we are also required to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000 (the “Minimum Stockholder Equity Rule”). In our Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2024, we reported stockholders’ equity of $2,326,987. On May 16, 2024, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying the Company that its stockholders’ equity as reported in such Quarterly Report did not satisfy the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Pursuant to the Notice, the Company had 45 calendar days from the date of the Notice to submit a plan to regain compliance. On July 1, 2024, the Company submitted a plan to Nasdaq. As described in the Company’s submission to Nasdaq, and as set forth in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on July 3, 2024, the Company consummated the public offering of 3 million shares of the Company’s common stock for total aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5,250,000. On July 23, 2024, the Company received written notification from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq, confirming that, based on the information contained in the Company’s Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on July 16, 2024, the Company is now in compliance with the Minimum Stockholder Equity Rule.

If the Company’s common stock and warrants are delisted by Nasdaq, it could adversely affect the Company’s ability to attract new investors, decrease the liquidity of the outstanding shares of common stock, reduce the Company’s flexibility to raise additional capital, reduce the price at which the Company’s common stock and warrants trade, and increase the transaction costs inherent in trading such shares and warrants with overall negative effects for the stockholders. In addition, delisting of the Company’s common stock and warrants could deter broker-dealers from making a market in or otherwise seeking or generating interest in the Company’s common stock. Furthermore, the delisting of the Company’s common stock and warrants from The Nasdaq Stock Market could adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.
