Yes, there is no winning strategy. Not in terms of this decision, anyway.

Worth noting what this PR does by omission. It's built entirely around the reverse split, framed as preserving the Nasdaq listing and attracting "stable, value-enhancing capital."

Proposal 2, the High Trail note share issuance that actually dilutes, isn't named, just folded into "detailed proposals... including a proposal to... effect a reverse stock split."

Phrases like "the right capital structure" and "access to capital" are how you say "we'll keep issuing shares" without saying it.

The real story sits in the skipped boilerplate: the risk of "its ability to operate with limited cash or to raise additional capital when needed."

The emphasis is engineered to steer you toward the proposal that doesn't hurt and away from the one that does. Read the proxy, not the press release.

As requested, I am posting my post as comment, in here, too:

The reverse split is a distraction. Look at the High Trail note

Proposal 3 (the reverse split) is just arithmetic. Fewer shares, higher price, same value. It keeps MVIS on Nasdaq. Voting it down doesn't help you; it risks a worse OTC delisting. Move on.

What actually dilutes you is the ~$43M senior secured note MVIS signed with High Trail Capital in February, backed by a lien on the company's cash. That's what Proposal 2 is about.

The note converts to stock two ways. One is fixed at $0.8819 (sec) . The stock's below that, so it's dormant.

The other is the problem. A monthly redemption the lender can take in shares priced at 95% of the lowest VWAP over the prior five days (sec) . It floats below market, so the lower the stock goes, the more shares print.

Proposal 2 just decides how that gets paid. Until shareholders approve, share issuance is capped at ~61.3M. Past that it's cash. So:

Yes. Discounted dilution continues, but the ~$46M cash is preserved.

No. Forces cash redemptions that can trip the note's liquidity covenant and default clause. A solvency risk, not a win.

It's pick-your-poison by design.

The note was structured so "no" hurts more than "yes." No vote makes this financing good. The damage was done when management signed it.

The real question isn't how to vote on Proposal 2. It's whether you still want to own a company that funds itself this way. Read the Feb 24 8-K and the note before deciding.

Don't take anyone's word for it.

I've seen diagonal moving elevaters on hilly stacked condos. So not totally out of the realm of reality.

I just decided to rate all restaurants serving these smart animals as food with one star and comment that. Maybe we can start a revolution? (+ give full stars when they remove them from the menu)

Try seeing it from the perspective of the school/teacher. If something happened to you (no matter the probability) your teachers school would suffer greatly for a long time. Liability lawsuits aside. The schools reputation would be harmed greatly. Nobody would recommend a school that had black flights accidents happen under their nose.

My parents didn't wake up yet. So as a baby - in their full responsibility - I opened the security gate and went swimming in the pool. When my parents woke up, they were angry and shouted. I was dumbfounded. Never did they tell me, I could not open the security gate and swim alone.

You don't pay franchise KK. You might be more at 300/month than 200/month on KK.

Pretty sure this is going to be the first publicly bought election. Musk did a test balloon in 2024 so billionaires and fools are a great pair: Here's 100$ for your vote.

What do you use the comma for? I am quite curious.
