We enter the public markets with no debt, no preferred shares and no convertible securities, so our new shareholders own the same security management owns. This financing expands what we can take on. We can now deploy against the pipeline while continuing to focus on attracting new enterprise customers and growing within the accounts we have already won. The work ahead is to make our robot fleet measurably better for our customers, expand with new and existing customers, and build an operating record that public shareholders can underwrite. That’s the work I’m looking forward to leading.”This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.“Check-Cap shareholders came into this process holding shares in a company looking for its next chapter,” said David Lontini, former Chairman of Check-Cap, who continues on as a director of the combined entity. “They now hold shares in a company that is selling into one of the fastest-growing areas of the technology economy, as robots begin taking on physical work that operators cannot staff.
