What rights come with the specific type of shares being sold here? Common stock class A/B/C? Preferred shares? Bonds?

Hi H G-C, The shares being offered are preferred shares, same as those owned by our current investors.

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)?

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.

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 ...

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...

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.

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...

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!

Hi Ben, we welcome your interest! Please see our answer to Kyle B's question above.
