In June 2023, the Company conducted a successful secondary offering to raise the capital needed to launch smart eyewear collections under its new Nautica, Eddie Bauer and Reebok partnerships, and its forthcoming Bluetooth safety eyewear. Both the Nautica Powered by Lucyd line and the Company’s unique Lucyd Safety smart eyewear line are expected to be launched in Q4 2023. The Eddie Bauer and Reebok Powered by Lucyd lines are expected to launch in early Q1 2024. We believe the recent fundraise capitalized the Company sufficiently to manufacture and market all four of these exciting new product lines, as well as make further enhancements to the Lucyd app, which powers seamless connection to ChatGPT on all of our eyewear. These lines represent a significant diversification of the Company’s offering that we believe will enable it to reach new segments of the optical and sunglass markets, and will empower the Company with the largest number of styles of any smart eyewear provider.
