on April 17, 2026 to holders of record of shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the close of business on April 13, 2026.
A copy of the press release
is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. Such press release shall not be deemed “filed” for any purpose,
including for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise
subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information in Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed incorporated by
reference into any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, regardless of any general incorporation language
in such filing.
The
statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not historical facts may be forward-looking statements within the meaning
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause
the outcome to be materially different. The words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,”
“believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,” “potential,” “predicts,”
“plans,” “intends,” “would,” “could,” “should” and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain
these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which
are outside of the Company’s control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the
forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include the risks that any potential future acquisition or disposition by the
Company is subject to market conditions, capital availability and timing considerations and may not be identified or completed on favorable
terms, or at all. Some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause the Company’s
actual results to differ materially from those presented in its forward-looking statements are set forth in the “Risk Factors”
and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” sections in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K,
its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and all of its other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as such risks, uncertainties
and other important factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s subsequent reports. Further, forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to
reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required
by law.
