The amendment involves the method of payment to the sellers for the purchase of Medtech Concepts, LLC.

These shares will be distributed in three installments on May 1st of 2025, 2026, and 2027. The company maintains strong liquidity with a current ratio of 6.19 and has achieved impressive revenue growth of 31% in the last twelve months.
The issuance of these shares is pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which allows for the sale of securities not involving a public offering. This strategic move may reflect the company’s cash flow management or capital structuring strategy.
The full details of the First Amendment can be found in Exhibit 2.1 attached to the 8-K filing. This document serves as a more detailed reference for the terms of the agreement amendment.
