amendments to our Articles, or the approval of any merger, acquisition or other significant corporate transaction, including a sale of all or substantially all of our assets.
In addition, Greybrook Health’s interests may not align with the interests of our other shareholders. Greybrook Health is in the business of making investments in companies and may acquire and hold, from time to time, interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us. Greybrook Health may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us.
Future sales of our securities by existing shareholders or by us could cause the market price for the Shares to decline
Sales of a substantial number of the Shares in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the market perception that the holders of a large number of Shares intend to sell their Shares, could significantly reduce the market price of the Shares. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that future public sales of these securities or the availability of these securities for sale will have on the market price of the Shares. If the market price of the Shares was to drop as a result, this might impede our ability to raise additional capital and might cause remaining shareholders to lose all or part of their investment.
It is a condition of closing of the Offering that the Company’s directors and executive officers and Greybrook Health enter into 90 day lock-up agreements. Upon the expiry of such lock-up agreements, those Shares will be available for sale in the public markets subject to restrictions under applicable securities laws. In addition, as of the date hereof, there are 13,735,788 Shares outstanding. There are also options and broker warrants to acquire 865,833 Shares and 111,109 Shares, respectively, currently outstanding and, on December 31, 2020, we issued the Lender Warrants to acquire 51,307 Shares. In addition, to the extent that the Company draws down additional financing under the New Credit Facility, the Company will be required to issue additional Lender Warrants to Oxford Finance LLC. The Shares issuable upon the exercise of these options, broker warrants and Lender Warrants, will, to the extent permitted by any applicable vesting requirements, lock-up restrictions and restrictions under applicable securities laws, also become eligible for sale in the public market.
Further, we cannot predict the size of future issuances of Shares or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of Shares will have on the market price of the Shares. Sales of substantial amounts of Shares, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Shares.
We do not expect to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future
We currently expect to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and growth of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our Board, subject to compliance with applicable law and any contractual provisions, including under any existing or future agreements for indebtedness we may incur, that restrict or limit our ability to pay dividends, and will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, earnings, capital requirements and other factors that our Board deems relevant. Accordingly, realization of a gain on your investment will depend on the appreciation of the price of the Shares, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends in the foreseeable future should not invest in Shares.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, and an inability to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could increase the risk of an error in our financial statements and/or call into question the reliability of our financial statements
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, which is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Because of our inherent limitations and the fact that we are a relatively new public company and are implementing new financial control and management systems, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
