FAQ:
- Q: What rights come with the specific type of shares being sold here? Common stock class A/B/C? Preferred shares? Bonds?
  A: Hi H G-C, The shares being offered are preferred shares, same as those owned by our current investors.
- Q: I try to avoid getting too many K-1 statements especially for smaller investments. Would it be reasonable to assume that I wouldn’t get K-1 statements in the near term (i.e. not annually)?
  A: Hi Steven, I am not an expert on K-1s, but my understanding is that K-1 statements are sent when there are distributions. We expect break even to occur at the end of 2027 / beginning of 2028, so I believe you're unlikely to receive any K-1 statements before then. Alternatively, if you're an accredited investor and would like to make a sizeable investment, we can bring you in via Regulation D and you won't get any K-1s.
- Q: What longevity testing has been done so far on the Beltdraulic cylinder? Is the MTBF/maintenance schedule/cost comparable with hydraulic solutions? I assume that currently the initial cost is higher than a hydraulic solution. Do you believe that with economy of scale the cost ...
  A: Longevity Testing: RISE has performed service life verification testing at three levels: Components, Cylinders, and System. On the component level, since we rely on belts and bearing systems for power transmission, we’ve tested these components exhaustively, with over 1 billion cumulative motion cycles performed across a range of test parameters. At the cylinder level, we’ve tested hundreds of thousands of complete, loaded movement cycles with various hardware configurations. At the system le...
- Q: Can you please share any guidance on 2024 revenue given we're in January of 2025? I understand the numbers won't be final for some time. Even LTM Q3 would be directionally helpful, if more readily available.
  A: Hi Kyle, of course! We expect 2024 revenues to land at $2M +/- 10%. The entirety of this amount is from contract revenue. ---- Changes from 2023: In 2023, RISE fulfilled a large (for us) production contract from USAF for the Compact Lifting Device (CLD). There was no follow-on production contract for the CLD in 2024. However, in late 2024, we received “Notification of Potential Contract Award” for a Phase 1 exploration in 2025 to sell the same product line to the Army, a much bigger opportuni...
- Q: can you approximate 2024 rev's? even if not released fully yet. Just a guidance of the trend to make sure it's not dropping significantly. Interested in investing!
  A: Hi Ben, we welcome your interest! Please see our answer to Kyle B's question above.
