3.Please disclose whether and how your business segments, products, lines of service,
projects, or operations are materially impacted by supply chain disruptions, especially in
light of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. For example, discuss whether you have or expect to:
• suspend the production, purchase, sale or maintenance of certain items;
• experience higher costs due to constrained capacity or increased commodity prices or
challenges sourcing materials (e.g., nickel, palladium, neon, cobalt, iron, platinum or other
raw material sourced from Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine);
• experience surges or declines in consumer demand for which you are unable to
adequately adjust your supply;
• be unable to supply products at competitive prices or at all due to export restrictions,
sanctions, tariffs, trade barriers, or political or trade tensions among countries or the
ongoing invasion; or
• be exposed to supply chain risk in light of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and/or related
geopolitical tension or have sought, made or announced plans to “de-globalize” your
supply chain.
Explain whether and how you have undertaken efforts to mitigate the impact and where
possible quantify the impact to your business.
Cover Page
4.We note that you are attempting to register the resale on behalf of the selling stockholder
of 625,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of a Senior Note. Please be
advised that we believe it is premature to register for resale shares of your common stock
issuable upon conversion of the Senior Note that is not yet outstanding. Accordingly,
please amend your registration statement to remove from registration the resale of any
shares of common stock that are issuable upon conversion of the Senior Note that is not
yet outstanding. Alternatively, provide us with your analysis as to why it is appropriate to
register the resale of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Senior Note that is
not yet outstanding.
5.Please disclose the percentage of shares of common stock of the registrant that Mr.
Thompson will own after the offering.
6.We note the disclosure on the cover page that the conversion price of the Senior Note is
the lower of $4.00 and the per-share offering price in this offering and the disclosure on
page 40 that the Senior Note and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock “will include anti-
dilution protection in the case of issuances by us at a price lower than the then applicable
conversion price for so long as the Senior Note or Series A remains outstanding under
which the conversion price will be reduced to such lower price as the Company shall issue
or agree to issue any of its securities.” Please ensure that you disclose in the appropriate
sections, such as the Risk Factors and the Description of Securities sections, the number
of shares issuable upon conversion of the Senior Note and the Series A based on a
reasonable range of prices.
7.Disclose whether your offering is contingent upon on final approval of your NASDAQ
listing on your cover page. Please ensure the disclosure is consistent with your

underwriting agreement.
8.To the extent you intend to proceed with your offering if your NASDAQ listing is denied,
revise your cover page to indicate that the offering is not contingent on NASDAQ
approval of your listing application and that if the shares are not approved for listing, you
may experience difficulty selling your shares. Include risk factor disclosures to address the
impact on liquidity and the value of shares.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, page 1

11.Please revise the summary to highlight the disclosure on page 53 that the reports from
your independent registered public accounting firm contain an explanatory paragraph
regarding your ability to continue as a going concern. Also, expand the Risk Factors
Summary section beginning on page 4 and the Risk Factors section beginning on page 8 to
highlight the report contains an explanatory paragraph regarding your ability to continue
as a going concern.
Risk Factors, page 8
12.We note the disclosure in the last column on page F-3 of the amount of goodwill and
intangibles compared to total assets as of April 30, 2022. Please include a risk factor to
highlight the risks related to goodwill and intangible assets, such as writedowns.
13.We note recent instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines
and stock price volatility seemingly unrelated to company performance following a
number of recent initial public offerings, particularly among companies with relatively
smaller public floats. Revise to include a separate risk factor addressing the potential for
rapid and substantial price volatility and any known factors particular to your offering that
may add to this risk and discuss the risks to investors when investing in stock where the
price is changing rapidly. Clearly state that such volatility, including any stock-run up,
may be unrelated to your actual or expected operating performance and financial
condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly
changing value of your stock.
Rising threats of international tariffs, page 26
