  • Use of artificial intelligence in our operations and product offerings could result in reputational or competitive harm, legal or regulatory liability and adverse impacts on our results of operations.
  • Data privacy risks, such as cyber-attacks and security breaches of customer, employee, or Company information, may have a may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

  • We operate in very competitive industries and will have competitors with greater resources than us.
  • We expect that we will need to raise additional funding, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.
  • Our operations and profitability could be adversely affected by government policies and regulations, particularly those affecting the artificial intelligence and financial services industries.
The other 13 risks
  • We are dependent on intellectual property obtained or licensed from third parties, and if we were to fail to comply with our obligations under our existing and any future intellectual property licenses with third parties, we could lose intellectual property rights that are important to our business and we may not be able to continue developing or commercializing our product candidates, if approved.
  • If we fail to effectively protect our technology or enforce our intellectual property rights, our business could be negatively impacted.
  • Intellectual property litigation is becoming more frequent and increasingly costly, potentially leading to significant business restrictions and expenses, even if we prevail in such disputes.
  • We may encounter unforeseen challenges that could require us to adjust or even abandon our current business plan.
  • As a public company, we incur increased expenses.
  • Risks Related to Our Common Stock
  • There is no active liquid trading market for our Common Stock.
  • Our Common Stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell our Common Stock.
  • FINRA sales practice requirements may limit your ability to buy and sell our Common Stock, which could suppress the price of our shares.
  • Our certificate of incorporation grants our Board of Directors the power to designate and issue additional shares of common and/or preferred stock.
  • We do not intend to pay dividends; thus, there will be fewer ways in which you are able to earn on your investment.
  • Rule 144 is not generally available to holders of our Common Stock, which makes it difficult to resell shares in the future.
  • Future sales of our Common Stock could adversely affect our stock price and our ability to raise capital in the future, resulting in our inability to raise required funding for our operations.
  • Our principal stockholders and management own a significant percentage of our Common Stock and will be able to control matters subject to stockholder approval.

Legal proceedings

Our stock is quoted under the symbol “FTSP” on the OTCID marketplace of the OTC Markets Group. OTCID companies must verify via an annual OTCID Certification, signed by the company CEO or CFO, that their company information is current, including information about a company’s reporting status, company profile, information on management and boards, major shareholders, law firms, transfer agents, and IR / PR firms.

The high and low bid quotations of our common stock for the 2025 and 2024 quarters are as follows:

These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

The market for our common stock has been sporadic and there have been significant periods during which there were few, if any, transactions in the common stock and no reported quotations. Accordingly, reliance should not be placed on the quotes listed above, as the trades and depth of the market may be limited, and therefore, such quotes may not be a true indication of the current market value of the Company’s common stock.
