Due to a formatting error of the financial printer used by the Company, a portion of the balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 was inadvertently omitted from the Company’s Current Report on Form 6-K filed on November 17, 2022, although the full balance sheet as of such date was publicly available on the Company’s website. The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 6-K to include the full financial statements for the third quarter. For the avoidance of doubt, no changes to the financial statements have been made.
