Equity [Abstract] |
Stockholders’ Equity | Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity Series B Convertible Preferred Stock On May 30, 2023, the Company issued 900,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock as consideration for the acquisition of the GoFire Purchased Assets. The Series B Preferred Stock carries no voting rights except: (i) with respect to the ability of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock (the “Majority Holders”), to nominate a director to the Company’s board of directors, and (ii) that the vote of the Majority Holders is necessary for effecting any amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Certificate of Designation that affects the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the Company at a redemption price of $15 per share, subject to potential downward adjustments based on the trading price of the Common Stock. Subject to additional limitations in the GoFire APA, the Series B Preferred Stock holds seniority over the Common Stock and each other class of series of securities now existing or hereafter authorized with respect to dividend rights, the distribution of assets upon liquidation, and dissolution and redemption rights. Upon a liquidation and winding up of the Company, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to a liquidation preference of $15 per share (the “Liquidation Preference”), though the redemption may be adjusted downward based on the trading price of the Common Stock at the time of liquidation. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive a dividend equal to 2% of the Liquidation Preference, accruing from the Closing Date and payable on the eighteen-month anniversary of the Closing Date. Amounts payable in respect of the Series B Dividend shall begin to accrue on a daily basis, be cumulative from and including the Original Issue Date, whether or not the Corporation has funds legally available for such dividends or such dividends are declared, shall compound on each six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date and shall be payable in arrears on the 18-month anniversary of the Original Issue Date. No preemptive rights are granted to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock. The Majority Holders have the ability to cause a voluntary conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock at a conversion rate of 0.3968 shares of Common Stock per share of Series B Preferred Stock which may only occur on or after the following dates 18-month, 24 month, 36 month, 48 month, and 60 month anniversary of the original issuance date; and only up to 180,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock on each of these dates. All shares of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert to Common Stock upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the GoFire APA). Reverse Stock Split On January 22, 2024, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to affect a 1-for-21 reverse stock split (the “2024 Reverse Stock Split”) of the shares of the Common Stock. The 2024 Reverse Stock Split was effective on January 25, 2024, on the Nasdaq Stock Market. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional shares of the Company’s Common Stock that would have otherwise resulted from the 2024 Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole number. In connection with the 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the Board approved appropriate and proportional adjustments to all outstanding securities or other rights convertible or exercisable into shares of the Common Stock, including, without limitation, all preferred stock, warrants, options, and other equity compensation rights. All historical share and per-share amounts reflected throughout the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and other financial information in this Report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 2024 Reverse Stock Split as if the split occurred as of the earliest period presented. The par value per share of the Common Stock was not affected by the 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Common Stock During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2024, the Company issued 1,746,500 shares of common stock in connection with the June 2024 Public Offering (see below). During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2024, the Company issued 2,174,456 shares of common stock from exercises of pre-funded warrants (see below). During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2024, the Company issued zero 0 and 52,949 shares of common stock, respectively, for rounding of shares related to the Reverse Split. During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2024, the Company issued zero 0 and 16,667 shares of common stock, respectively, to a FINRA member broker-dealer in connection with the termination of its relationship with such broker dealer. The fair value was $62,000 based on the closing price of the common stock on the termination date and recorded as stock-based compensation. June 2024 Public Offering On June 21, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the certain purchasers (the “Purchasers) for the purchase and sale of an aggregate of $5,393,250 of the Company’s securities consisting of 3,525,000 units (the “Units’). With respect to (i) 1,350,000 of the Units (the “Common Units”), each such Common Unit consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) and one and one-half common warrants (“Common Warrants”) to purchase one and one-half shares of Common Stock and (ii) the other 2,175,000 Units (the “Pre-funded Units”), each such Pre-funded Unit consisted of a pre-funded warrant (“Pre-funded Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock and one and one-half Common Warrants. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Common Units were sold at a purchase price of $1.53 per Unit and the Pre-funded Units were sold at a purchase price of $1.529 per Unit. The sale of the Units to the Purchasers closed on June 24, 2024 (the “Closing Date”). The Company also sold 396,500 Common Units to additional investors, who did not enter into the Purchase Agreement, under the same terms sold to Purchasers. The sale of securities by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement combined with the concurrent sale of securities to additional investors is referred to herein as the “June 2024 Public Offering’. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the June 2024 Public Offering were approximately $5,997,720, before deducting placement agent fees and expenses and other transaction costs of $744,993. Of the total gross proceeds, $2,672,145 and $3,325,575 were allocated to the common stock and the pre-funded warrants, respectively. See further Common Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants details below.

Compensation expense related to performance-based options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, provided that it is probable that performance conditions will be achieved, with probability assessed on a quarterly basis and any changes in expectations recognized as an adjustment to earnings in the period of the change. Compensation cost is not recognized for service- and performance-based awards that do not vest because service or performance conditions are not satisfied, and any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed. If vesting occurs prior to the end of the requisite service period, expense is accelerated and fully recognized through the vesting date.
