2025-11-03: red flag filed

Open-market purchases and sales (Form 4 codes P and S) by officers, directors and 10% owners, by transaction date, from 2025-08-05 to 2025-12-03. Excludes option exercises, grants, gifts and tax withholding. Amended filings replace the originals; joint filings count once. Foreign private issuers do not file Form 4. Many insider sales are pre-scheduled (10b5-1 plans) and are not by themselves a sign of wrongdoing.

Verified excerpt

"(the "Company") concluded that the Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025 (collectively, the "Affected Financials"), as previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), should no longer be relied upon because of an error related to redemption shares and should therefore be restated."

Quoted from the filing. Source

What this means

The company says previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon (8-K Item 4.02). This is one of the most serious accounting red flags: past reported numbers were wrong and will be restated.

Why this score: also within 90 days: Auditor change, Going-concern doubt, Late quarterly report (NT 10-Q)
