Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Uplisting improves liquidity and visibility; a fresh $18M capital raise strengthens the balance sheet and reduces near-term financing risk; governance upgrades reduce asset risk; PEA progress could meaningfully improve CuMo economics. Dilution from the offering exists but may be outweighed by enhanced execution capacity and potential PEA-driven re-rating if results are favorable.
