ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors included in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024, and our Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31June 30, 2024, each of which is accessible on the SECs website at www.sec.gov.
Our ability to continue as a going concern requires that we obtain sufficient funding to finance our operations in the near-term.
We anticipate that our cash on hand as of JuneSeptember 30, 2024 plus the cash raised from the July 2024 equity offering and cash expected to be generated from operations will not be sufficient to fund planned operations for one year from the issuance of the JuneSeptember 30, 2024 financial statements. To continue our operations, we currently estimate that we will need to obtain additional funding by the secondfirst quarter of 2025. We can provide no assurance that such funding would be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise additional proceeds, we will be required to modify or cease our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have in the past failed to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, and if we fail to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market in the future, we will not be afforded traditional cure periods under Nasdaq rules and our common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq, which could have an adverse impact on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.
On December 19, 2023, we were notified by the Listing Qualifications Department (the Staff) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq) that we were not in compliance with Nasdaqs Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as the minimum bid price of our common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. On January 4, 2024, the Staff notified us that the market value of our listed securities had been below the minimum $35,000,000 required for continued listing as set forth in Nasdaqs Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) for the previous 180 calendar days and served as an additional basis for delisting.

We submitted a hearing request to Nasdaqs Hearings Department, which stayed the suspension of our common stock. The hearing was held on March 26, 2024. On April 2, 2024, we received notification from the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (Panel) that it had granted an extension until June 24, 2024, to demonstrate compliance with Listing Rules 5550(a)(2) and 5550(b)(1) (which requires at least $2.5 million in shareholders equity), subject to certain conditions.
On July 17, 2024, we received a letter from the Nasdaq Office of General Counsel confirming the decision of the Panel that we had demonstrated compliance with the requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, but that we will be subject to a Discretionary Panel Monitor for a period of one year. As such, in the event that we have another deficiency or deficiencies, we will immediately go back into Nasdaqs hearings process. In the event that the Nasdaq Hearings Department does not grant us an extension to demonstrate compliance our common stock would be delisted from Nasdaq and trading of our common stock could be conducted only in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such an event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our common stock, and there would likely also be a reduction in our coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a major exchange.
