PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

 

 

T Stamp Inc.

 

Up to 12,410,858 Shares of Class A Common Stock Issuable Upon The Exercise of Warrants

 

This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time of up to an aggregate of 12,410,858 shares of our Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Warrant Shares”), comprised of (i) 2,864,798 shares issuable upon the exercise of certain common stock purchase warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”); and (ii) 9,546,060 shares issuable upon the exercise of certain common stock purchase warrants (the “New Warrants”), each of which were sold to a certain investor (the “Selling Stockholder”) in a private placement offering consummated on September 3, 2024. We refer to the Private Placement Warrants and New Warrants herein collectively as the “Warrants”). We are registering these Warrant Shares as required by the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) (with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) and Warrant Exercise Agreement (the “WEA”) (with respect to the shares issuable upon the exercise of the New Warrants), each of which we entered into with the Selling Stockholder on September 3, 2024. The Selling Stockholder may offer and sell the Warrant Shares in public or private transactions, or both. These sales may occur at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, or at negotiated prices.

 

As provided by Rule 416 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this prospectus also covers any additional shares of Class A Common Stock that may become issuable upon any anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder by reason of stock splits, stock dividends, and other events described therein.

 

The Selling Stockholder may sell all or a portion of Warrant Shares through underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from the Selling Stockholder, the purchasers of the Warrant Shares, or both. See “Plan of Distribution” for a more complete description of the ways in which the Warrant Shares may be sold. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of any of the 12,410,858 Warrant Shares by the Selling Stockholder. However, upon exercise of the Warrants for cash, the Selling Stockholder would pay us an exercise price of $0.3223 per Warrant Share, subject to any adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, or an aggregate of approximately $4,000,342 if the Warrants are exercised in full for cash. The Warrants are also exercisable on a cashless basis under certain circumstances, and if the Warrants are exercised on a cashless basis, we would not receive any cash payment from the Selling Stockholder upon any such exercise of the Warrants. We have agreed to bear the expenses (other than underwriting discounts, commissions, or agent’s commissions and legal expenses of the Selling Stockholder) in connection with the registration of the Warrant Shares being offered under this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder.

 

We will pay the expenses of registering the Warrant Shares, but all selling and other expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholder will be paid by the Selling Stockholder. See “Plan of Distribution” for further details.

 

This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities that may be resold by the Selling Stockholder. In certain circumstances, we may provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of a particular offering by the Selling Stockholder. Such supplements may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should carefully read this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement before you invest in any of our securities.

 

 

Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “IDAI.” On December 3, 2024, the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $0.613 per share.

 

As of December 3, 2024, the aggregate market value of our outstanding Class A Common Stock held by non-affiliates was approximately $10.88 million based on 17,748,632 shares of Class A Common Stock held by non-affiliates on such date, and based on the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on such date of $0.613 per share. As of the date of this prospectus, we have sold $460,229.80 worth of securities on September 3, 2024 pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 during the prior 12-calendar month period ending on, and including, the date of this prospectus.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.

Overview

 

Trust Stamp was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 11, 2016 as “T Stamp Inc.” T Stamp Inc. and its subsidiaries primarily develop proprietary artificial intelligence-powered solutions, researching and leveraging machine learning artificial intelligence, including computer vision, cryptography, and data mining, to process and protect data and deliver insightful outputs that identify and defend against fraud, protect sensitive user information, facilitate automated processes, and extend the reach of digital services through global accessibility. We utilize the power and agility of technologies such as GPU processing, edge computing, neural networks, and large language models to process and protect data faster and more effectively than historically possible to deliver results at a disruptively low cost for usage across multiple industries.

 

Our team has substantial expertise in the creation and development of AI-enabled software products. We license our technology and expertise in numerous fields, with an increasing emphasis on addressing diverse markets through established partners who will integrate our technology into field-specific applications.

 

Over the last six months, the Company has undertaken a multi-pronged process to position itself better to leverage the growing opportunities offered by the expanded use and acceptance of AI technologies. This process has included:

 

i.

Reducing the size of the non-production-focused executive and consulting teams to reduce overhead for the 2025 calendar year.

ii.

Releasing sales staff that did not meet their targets.

iii.

Negotiating the sale of certain assets that have resulted in continuous operating losses to raise operating capital and eliminate the cash flow deficits associated with the asset, allowing for sharpened focus on and investment in products with the best promise for profitable revenue generation.

iv.

Negotiating a services contract to offset the cost of the technical team members while maintaining significant R&D and product development capabilities.

v.

Refocusing go-to-market strategies on joint ventures with proven industry partners with access to target markets.

 

Markets

 

Trust Stamp has evaluated the market potential for its services in part by reviewing the following reports, articles, and data sources, none of which were commissioned by the Company, and none of which are to be incorporated by reference:

 

Data Security and Fraud

 

·

According to the “2021 Year End Report: Data Breach QuickView” published by Flashpoint, 4,145 publicly disclosed breaches exposed over 22 billion records in 2022.

 

 

·

The cumulative merchant losses to online payment fraud between 2023 and 2027 will exceed $343 billion globally according to a 2022 report titled “Fighting Online Payment Fraud in 2022 & Beyond” published by Juniper Research.

 

Financial and societal inclusion

 

·

According to the “Global Findex Database 2021,” published by the World Bank, 1.4 billion people were unbanked as of 2021..

 

·

131 million small and medium-sized enterprises in emerging markets lack access to finance, limiting their ability to grow and thrive (UNSGSA Financial Inclusion Webpage, Accessed March 2023)

Trust Stamp’s biometric authentication, liveness detection, and information tokenization enable individuals to verify and establish their identities using data derived from biometrics. While individuals in this market lack traditional means of identity verification, Trust Stamp provides a means to authenticate identity that preserves an individual’s privacy and control over that identity.

 

Alternatives to Detention (“ATD”)

 

·

The ATD market includes Federal, State, and Municipal agencies for both criminal justice and immigration purposes. Trust Stamp addresses the ATD market with applications built on Trust Stamp’s privacy-preserving solutions allowing individuals to comply with ATD requirements using ethical and humane technology methodologies. Trust Stamp has developed innovative patented technologies for use in the ATD market encompassing biometrics, geolocation, and tokenization as well as a proprietary, tamper-resistant, battery-free “Tap-In-Band” that can complement or replace biometric check-in requirements and provide a lower-cost and more humane alternative to traditional “ankle bracelet” technology.

 

 

Other Markets

 

The Company is developing products and working with partners and industry organizations in other sectors that offer significant market opportunities and has entered into go-to-market or licensing agreements, including global data location services, healthcare, IoT, automotive dealer services, and computer vision for UAV operations. We anticipate licensing our technology in numerous fields, typically through established partners who will integrate our technology into field-specific applications.

 

Principal Products and Services

 

We adhere to the best practices outlined in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) and International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) frameworks, and our policies and procedures in managing personally identifiable information (“PII”) comply with General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) requirements wherever such requirements are applicable.

 

Key Customers

 

The Company’s initial business consisted of developing proprietary privacy-first identity solutions and implementing them through custom applications built and maintained for a few key customers. In 2022, the Company added to its product offerings a modular and highly scalable SaaS model with low-code or no implementation (“the Orchestration Layer”).

Securities Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement with DQI Holdings, Inc.

 

On October 27, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement the (“DQI SPA”) with DQI Holdings, Inc. (“DQI”). Pursuant to the terms of the DQI SPA, the Company agreed to sell, and DQI agreed to purchase from, at the closing of the DQI SPA and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the DQI SPA, 1,363,636.36 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 of the Company at $0.22 per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. On October 28, 2024, the Closing of the DQI SPA occurred, and the Company awarded 1,363,636.36 shares of Class A Common Stock to DQI (the “DQI Shares”) in exchange for a cash payment of $300,000. The closing of the DQI SPA was subject to a number of customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the Company’s entry into a Registration Rights Agreement, the execution of which were conditions to the closing of the DQI SPA.

 

The DQI Shares were not registered under the Securities Act and were offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

The foregoing description of the DQI SPA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the DQI SPA, a copy of which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.29 to this registration statement.

 

Pursuant to the DQI SPA, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “DQI Registration Rights Agreement”) with DQI on October 27, 2024, pursuant to which the Company must file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or, if the Company is ineligible to use a Form S-3, another appropriate form) with the SEC to register for resale by DQI of the DQI Shares, with such registration statement becoming effective 5 days after the date the stockholders of the Company ratify, by vote, the approval of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 13, 2024 between the Company and DQI and all transactions contemplated thereunder, including, but not limited to, the sale of 4,597,701 shares of our Class A Common Stock to DQI. However, following comments received from SEC staff, it was determined to wait until after the stockholder approval for filing of such registration statement.

 

The foregoing summary of the DQI Registration Rights Agreement is not complete, and is qualified by reference to a copy of the DQI Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.30 to this registration statement.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement for Pre-Funded Warrants and Private Placement Warrants

 

On September 3, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the investor (i) in a registered direct offering Pre-Funded Warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") to purchase 1,432,399 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and (ii) in a concurrent private placement, common stock purchase warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), exercisable for an aggregate of up to 2,864,798 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.3223 per share of Class A Common Stock. The offering price per Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.3213.

 

The securities to be issued in the registered direct offering were offered pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File 333-271091) (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), initially filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on April 3, 2023 and declared effective on April 12, 2023. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and will remain exercisable until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full.

 

 

The Private Placement Warrants (and the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) were not registered under the Securities Act, and were offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

Pursuant to the SPA, the Company agreed to hold an annual or special meeting of its stockholders within sixty (60) days following the closing date of the SPA for the purpose of obtaining shareholder approval of the SPA and transactions contemplated thereunder (including, but not limited to, the issuance of the Pre-Funded Warrants, Private Placement Warrants, and shares issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and Private Placement Warrants) as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Shareholder Approval”). If the Company does not obtain Shareholder Approval at the first meeting, the Company must call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek Shareholder Approval until the earlier of the date on which Shareholder Approval is obtained or the warrants are no longer outstanding.

 

The Private Placement Warrants are immediately exercisable upon the date Shareholder Approval is received, and will expire five years thereafter, and in certain circumstances may be exercised on a cashless basis. If we fail for any reason to deliver shares of Class A Common Stock upon the valid exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, subject to our receipt of a valid exercise notice and the aggregate exercise price, by the time period set forth in the Private Placement Warrants, we are required to pay the applicable holder, in cash, as liquidated damages as set forth in the Private Placement Warrants. The Pre-Funded Warrants and Private Placement Warrants also include customary buy-in rights in the event we fail to deliver shares of common stock upon exercise thereof within the time periods set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrants and Private Placement Warrants.

 

On September 3, 2024, the Company closed the registered direct offering and the private placement offering (collectively, the “Offering”), raising gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. In the event that all Private Placement Warrants are exercised for cash, the Company will receive additional gross proceeds of approximately $3.076 million. The Company’s primary use of the net proceeds was to fund the termination of its transaction documents with HCM Management Foundation (“HCM”) pursuant to that certain Termination and Release Agreement between the Company and HCM also dated September 3, 2024 (filed herewith as Exhibit 10.25) under which the transaction entered into between the Company and HCM as described in the Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 4, 2024 was terminated. The balance of the proceeds is being used for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company is required within 30 days of September 3, 2024 to file a registration statement on Form S-1 or other appropriate form if the Company is not then S-1 eligible registering the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued and issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants. The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective within 91 days of the closing date of the Offering, and to keep the registration statement effective at all times until no investor owns any Private Placement Warrants or shares issuable upon exercise thereof.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, from September 3, 2024 until 45 days thereafter, subject to certain exceptions, we may not issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents, or file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, other than a prospectus supplement for the Shelf Registration Statement. In addition, from September 3, 2024 until 45 days thereafter, we are prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance of common stock or common stock equivalents involving a variable rate transaction (as defined in the SPA).

 

On November 18, 2024, Shareholder Approval was obtained.

 

 

Placement Agency Agreement

 

Also in connection with the Offering, on September 3, 2024, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Maxim Group LLC (the “Placement Agent”). Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, the Placement Agent agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the Shares, Pre-Funded Warrants, and Private Placement Warrants. The Company will pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds generated from such sales and will reimburse the Placement Agent for certain of its expenses in an aggregate amount up to $45,000.

 

The Placement Agency Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Placement Agent, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions.

 

In addition, pursuant to certain “lock-up” agreements (each, a “Lock-Up Agreement”) that were required to be entered into as a condition to the closing of the SPA, our officers and directors have agreed, for a period of 60 days from September 3, 2024, not to engage in any of the following, whether directly or indirectly, without the consent of the purchaser under the SPA: offer to sell, sell, contract to sell pledge, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of our common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Common Stock (the “Lock-Up Securities”); enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities; make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; enter into any transaction, swap, hedge, or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities subject to customary exceptions; or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.

 

The foregoing does not purport to be a complete description of each of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants, the SPA, and Lock-Up Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each of such document, which are filed as Exhibits 4.12, 4.13, and 10.23, and 10.26, respectively, to this registration statement on Form S-3 and are incorporated herein by reference.

On September 3, 2024, the Company entered into a warrant exercise agreement (the “WEA”) with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder agreed to exercise (the “Exercise”) (i) all of the warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder on June 5, 2023, as subsequently amended on December 20, 2023, which are exercisable for 1,173,030 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) with a current exercise price of $1.34 per share (the “June 2023 Warrants”) and (ii) all of the warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder on December 20, 2023, which are exercisable for 3,600,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, with a current exercise price of $1.34 per share (the “December 2023 Warrants” and collectively with the June 2023, the “Existing Warrants”). In consideration for the immediate exercise of 4,773,000 of the Existing Warrants for cash, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of all of the Existing Warrants, including any unexercised portion thereof, to $0.3223 per share, which was equal to the most recent closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market prior to the execution of the WEA. In addition, in consideration for such Exercise, the Selling Stockholder received new unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 9,546,060 shares of Class A Common Stock, equal to 200% of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued in connection with the Exercise, with an exercise price of $0.3223 per share (the “New Warrants”) in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act

 

The New Warrants will have substantially the same terms as the June 2023 Warrants (which were described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 5, 2023), except that the New Warrants will not become exercisable until such time as the Company has received stockholder approval with respect to the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the New Warrants and will remain exercisable for five (5) years from the stockholder approval. The Company agreed to hold a stockholder meeting for this purpose no later than the 90th calendar date following the entry into the WEA. The Company agreed to file a resale registration statement on Form S-3 within 30 days of September 3, 2024 with respect to the New Warrants and the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants. The Existing Warrants and the New Warrants each include a beneficial ownership limitation that prevents the Selling Stockholder from owning more than 9.99%, with respect to the Existing Warrants, and 4.99%, with respect to the New Warrants, of the Company’s outstanding Class A Common Stock at any time.

 

 

Additionally, pursuant to the WEA, from September 3, 2024 until the 60th day thereafter, the Company is prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company of any common stock of the Company or any common stock equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of the Company’s common stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of the Company’s common stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Company’s common stock or (ii) enters into, or effects a transaction under, any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit or an “at-the-market offering”, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price, regardless of whether shares pursuant to such agreement have actually been issued and regardless of whether such agreement is subsequently canceled. The Selling Stockholder will be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.

 

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Exercise was approximately $1.538 million, prior to deducting warrant inducement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. These funds supplement the funds received as discussed above under “Securities Purchase Agreement”, in which the Company’s primary use of the net proceeds was to fund the termination of its transaction documents with HCM Management Foundation with the balance being used for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

 

Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”) acted as the exclusive warrant inducement agent and financial advisor to the Company for the Exercise. The Company agreed to pay Maxim an aggregate cash fee equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Exercise.

 

The resales of the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Existing Warrants have been registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-274160) with respect to the June 2023 Warrants, and pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-277151) with respect to the December 2023 Warrants (collectively, the “Registration Statements”). The Registration Statements are currently effective for the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Existing Warrants.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the WEA and the New Warrants and are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the form of WEA and the form of the New Warrants, copies of which are filed hereto as Exhibits 10.24 and 4.14, respectively, to this registration statement on Form S-3 of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

As of December 2, 2024, the Selling Stockholder has not exercised the New Warrants. All 9,546,060 of the New Warrants remain outstanding as of December 2, 2024.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in the applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, and discussed under the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering. The risks described in these documents are not the only ones we face, but those that we consider to be material. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our securities to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also carefully read the section below entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus, each prospectus supplement and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus and each prospectus supplement contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses, asset quality or other future financial or business performance, strategies, expectations or business prospects, or the impact of legal, regulatory or supervisory matters on our business, results of operations, or financial condition. Specifically, forward-looking statements may include statements relating to our future business prospects, revenue, income, and financial condition.

 

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target,” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements reflect our judgment based on currently available information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

 

Important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are not limited to:

 

·

adverse economic conditions;

 

·

general decreases in demand for our products and services;

 

·

changes in timing of introducing new products into the market;

 

·

intense competition (including entry of new competitors), including among competitors with substantially greater resources than us;

 

·

inadequate capital;

 

·

unexpected costs;

 

·

revenues and net income lower than anticipated;

 

·

litigation;

 

·

becoming delisted from Nasdaq;

 

·

the possible fluctuation and volatility of operating results and financial conditions;

 

·

the impact of legal, regulatory, or supervisory matters on our business, results of operations, or financial condition;

 

·

inability to carry out our marketing and sales plans; and

 

·

the loss of key employees and executives.

 

 

Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions we have made in light of our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. You are cautioned that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements. We discuss in greater detail many of these risks in the applicable prospectus supplement, in any free writing prospectuses we may authorize for use in connection with a specific offering, in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, as well as any amendments thereto, and in our subsequent filings with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety.

 

Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events or developments. Thus, you should not assume that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. You should read this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement, together with the documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in the foregoing documents by these cautionary statements.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement. All proceeds from the sale of the Warrant Shares will be for the account of the Selling Stockholder. However, we will receive the proceeds of any cash exercise of the Warrants. We intend to use the net proceeds from any cash exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes, which includes working capital, business and product development, potential acquisitions, retirement of debt and other business opportunities. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors; therefore, unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds of our offerings.

 

We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the offering and sale of the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, Nasdaq listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our accountants, in accordance with the terms of the SPA and WEA. The Selling Stockholder will pay any discounts, commissions, and fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals incurred by the Selling Stockholder in disposing of the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus.

 

THE SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

The shares of Class A Common Stock (or Warrant Shares) being offered by the Selling Stockholder are those issuable to the Selling Stockholder upon exercise of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Warrants, see “Recent Developments” further above in this prospectus. We are registering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in order to permit the Selling Stockholder to offer the shares for resale from time to time.

 

In September 2022, April 2023, June 2023, and September 2024, the Selling Stockholder and the Company engaged in transactions whereby, pursuant to the terms of Securities Purchase Agreements dated September 11, 2022, April 14, 2023, June 5, 2023, and September 3, 2024, respectively, the Company sold the Selling Stockholder a number of shares of Class A Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock in various private placement transactions, and subsequently filed registration statements on Form S-1 that were declared effective in January 2023 (File No. 333-267668), August 2023 (File No. 333-272343), and September 2023 (File No. 333-274160), respectively, to register for resale by the Selling Stockholder those shares, as well as the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants sold to this investor in those transactions (with the exception of the September 2024 transactions, whereby the Company sold the Selling Stockholder pre-funded warrants in a registered direct pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File 333-271091) declared effective on April 12, 2023.

 

Additionally, in December 2023, the Selling Stockholder the Company entered into a warrant exercise agreement, whereby the Selling Stockholder agreed to exercise certain warrants previously issued to the Selling Stockholder in exchange for the Company (i) reducing the exercise price of all those warrants; and (ii) issuing the Selling Stockholder new unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,600,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, with an exercise price of $1.34 per share in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Company subsequently filed resale registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the 3,600,000 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of those warrants, which was declared effective on April 23, 2024 (File No. 333-277151).

 

 

Apart from these previous transactions, and the transactions described in this prospectus relating to the SPA and WEA, the Selling Stockholder has not had any material relationship with the Company within the past three years.

 

The table below lists beneficial ownership information of the Selling Stockholder as of the date of this prospectus, as well as the expected beneficial ownership of the Selling Stockholder after the conclusion of this offering.

 

In accordance with the terms of the SPA and WEA with the Selling Stockholder, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, determined as if the outstanding Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the SPA and WEA, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all the shares offered by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus.

 

 

Under the terms of the Private Placement Warrants, the Selling Stockholder may not exercise the Private Placement Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause the Selling Stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of Class A Common Stock which would exceed 4.99% (or, at the option of the Selling Stockholder upon 61 days’ notice to the Company subject to the terms of the Private Placement Warrants, up to 9.99%), as applicable of our then outstanding Class A Common Stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants which have not been exercised. The New Warrants are subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation, which prohibits the Selling Stockholder from exercising any portion of the New Warrants if, following such exercise, the Selling Stockholder’s ownership of our Class A Common Stock would exceed 9.99%. The number of shares in the table do not reflect this limitation. The Selling Stockholder may sell all, some or none of the Warrant Shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

In the event of such an election, each Class A share for which the holder makes such election shall be exchanged for a Class B share on a one-for-one basis without the payment of any additional consideration.

Holders of shares of Class B Common Stock have no voting rights with respect to such shares; provided that the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote (one vote for each Class B share held) to the same extent that the holders of Shares of Class A Common Stock would be entitled to vote on matters as to which non-voting equity interests are permitted to vote pursuant to 12 C.F.R. § 225.2(q)(2) (or a successor provision thereto).

 

Transfer Rights

 

In the event a holder of shares of Class B Common Stock transfers all or any portion of his or her shares of Class B Common Stock to a “Permitted Transferee” (as defined below), such Permitted Transferee will be entitled to elect to exchange all or any portion of such Shares of Class B Common Stock for Shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis without the payment of any additional consideration.

(ii)

A private placement in which no one party acquires the right to purchase 2% or more of any class of voting securities of the Company

 

(iii)

An assignment to a single party (e.g. a broker or investment banker) for the purpose of conducting widespread public distribution on behalf of a bank, savings association, or a holding company (or an affiliate thereof) and its transferees (other than transferees that are Permitted Transferees); or

Anti-Takeover Effects of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain certain provisions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us. These provisions, which are summarized below, could discourage takeovers, coercive or otherwise. These provisions are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our Board of Directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us.

 

Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock

 

We have authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, and our Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of one or more series of preferred stock without stockholder approval. These shares could be used by our Board of Directors to make it more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us through a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.

 

Limits on Stockholder Action to Call a Special Meeting

 

Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by our Board of Directors. A stockholder may not call a special meeting, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for holders controlling a majority of our capital stock to take any action, including the removal of directors.

 

Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our Board of Directors to fill vacancies or newly created directorships.

 

If there is a vacancy on our Board of Directors, the majority of the directors then in office may elect a successor to fill any vacancies or newly created directorships. This may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect their own slate of directors or otherwise attempt to obtain control of our Company.

 

Classified Board of Directors

 

The A&R Certificate of Incorporation provides for a classified board of directors of the Company, with the board divided into three classes. Class I will hold office for a term expiring at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders; Class II will hold office initially for a term expiring at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders; and Class III will hold office initially for a term expiring at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. At each annual meeting following this initial classification and election, the successors to the class of directors whose terms expire at that meeting would be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting after their election and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.

 

The Class I directors were elected at the 2023 annual meeting for a term of office for a term expiring at the 2026 annual meeting.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The Selling Stockholder, which as used herein includes certain donees, pledgees, transferees, or other successors-in-interest selling Warrant Shares or interests in Warrant Shares received after the date of this prospectus from the Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their Warrant Shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

 

The Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

 

·

privately negotiated transactions;

 

·

short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;

 

·

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·

broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·

any other method permitted by applicable law.

 

The Selling Stockholder may transfer the Warrant Shares in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees, or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of our Class A Common Stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Class A Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell shares of our Class A Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out its short positions, or loan or pledge the Class A Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholder from the sale of the Warrant Shares offered by them will be the sale price of the Warrant Shares less discounts or commissions, if any. The Selling Stockholder reserves the right to accept and, together with its agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of Warrant Shares to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

 

The Selling Stockholder also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that it meets the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that rule.

 

The Selling Stockholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Class A Common Stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions, or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If any of the Selling Stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our Class A Common Stock to be sold, the names of the Selling Stockholder, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer, or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the Warrant Shares may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Warrant Shares may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

We have advised the Selling Stockholder that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Stockholder and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Stockholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholder may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholder against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the Selling Stockholder to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective at all times until no Selling Stockholder owns any Warrants or Warrant Shares.

 

Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “IDAI.”

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions limiting the liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and provides that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws also provide our Board of Directors with the discretion to indemnify our employees and other agents when determined appropriate by the Board. In addition, each employment agreement entered into between the Company and its officers and/or directors contains certain indemnification provisions, which require us to indemnify them in certain circumstances.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling our Company pursuant to the foregoing provision, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 17. Undertakings

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i)

to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii)

to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii)

to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

(i)

each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

(ii)

each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

 

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i)

any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii)

any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii)

the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

(iv)

any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

 

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
