Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Immediate price drop following disclosure of an eight million share secondary offering and lock-up waivers; dilution risk and insider selling pressure have historically pressured small- and mid-cap stocks in similar scenarios. The lack of cash proceeds to AVEX signals dilution without immediate balance-sheet support, aligning with typical post-announcement declines.

The news triggered a stock drop of about 16% on June 2 and another 7% on June 5, as proceeds appeared to go to selling shareholders rather than the company. The event raises dilution and governance questions and could heighten near-term volatility.
