The biggest hurdle to the $100MM institutional (VC) investment and Foundation funding is travel funds to meet with both Foundation and Venture Capital funding sources, and ongoing operating funds/expenses. We also need funds for upcoming product Patent fees to protect our proprietary equipment, the Spinal Stiffness Gauge – SSG, a vital component of the Ortho-Gnostics, Inc.
I am committed to either getting Ortho-Gnostics completely funded, or the Company sold in the next 24 - 36 months. Before we do either one of these, we need to complete Company financial audits, SSG equipment upgrades, FDA regulatory filings, upcoming 2018 SSG patent fees in the amount of $3,780, new provisional SSG/Implant patent filings, etc. etc. The goal is to raise up to $300,000 for the rest of the year - the next 12 - 18 months, primarily from existing Mekanika shareholders. For this purpose, and to avoid diluting Mekanika’s Shareholders, I have retired 600,000 of my Mekanika shares to the Company’s Treasury, to be sold at $0.50/share to existing shareholders only. – See Figure 3 for a breakdown of the $300,000 financing.
When we receive Foundation funding or a large equity investment, the Company will provide a means by which existing Shareholders, who need to, or want to, sell their shares to existing shareholders or to new investors; for example: “Over the last several years, stockholders/shareholders in many private companies have participated in so-called “liquidity rounds”, sometimes referred to as secondary sales, in which they sold all or a portion of their shares for cash, long before (and regardless of whether) the company ever goes public or is acquired.”
With an average investment now of between $1,500 and $5,000 per Shareholder, for example, we can meet the $300,000 goal outlined in the Shareholder Update. We really need Shareholder support to build value in the Company over the next 12-24 months while we seek Foundation and VC investment for the Ortho-Gnostics Project.
FUNDING RAISED TO DATE: = $65,000
and,
"Sitting on the Fence" ≥ $55,000.
