During Q1 of 2023, the Company issued several one-time stock issuances to certain debt holders and investor relations firms, to assist with critical corporate financing and development initiatives and public and private investor development. Management is confident that these investments will assist in focusing investor attention on our pivotal progress, as we proceed through commercialization of our UltraShear platform. During the quarter, the Company also issued stock options to employees and directors for the first time since 2019, recognizing the importance of incentive compensation in the retention of critical staff. The awards were issued at an above-market exercise price.
