Warning signs in its filings
Problems the company itself reported to the SEC, in its own words.
2 serious warning signs in Stablecoin Development’s filings.
We look for five warning signs: doubt it can keep going, weak checks on its own accounts, a notice that its past accounts can't be relied on, a change of auditor, and one customer bringing in a big share of sales. We don't check lawsuits, investigations or debt yet.
We checked the auditor's report, internal controls, restatement notices, auditor changes and big customers in the 10-K filed 19 Mar 2026, plus the 10-Q filed 29 Oct 2026 and 12 later 8-Ks.
Weak checks on its own accounts
SeriousThe company said its checks on its own accounts did not work at the end of its latest quarter. Mistakes could slip into the numbers.
“Based on that evaluation, and because the previously disclosed material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which relates to the review of the contractual terms of our outstanding equity-linked financial instruments and the identification of triggering events under those instruments, as described in Part II, Item 9A of Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on April 29, 2026, had not been remediated as of September 30, 2026, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2026.”
Show the full paragraph
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, and because the previously disclosed material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which relates to the review of the contractual terms of our outstanding equity-linked financial instruments and the identification of triggering events under those instruments, as described in Part II, Item 9A of Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on April 29, 2026, had not been remediated as of September 30, 2026, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2026.

Its past accounts can't be relied on
SeriousIt told the SEC its earlier accounts should no longer be relied on, usually because they contained errors.
8-K Item 4.02 filed 29 Apr 2026: the company said its earlier financial statements should no longer be relied on.

Changed auditor
Worth knowingThe company changed its auditor (the firm that checks its books) in the last two years.
“On January 22, 2026, WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) notified NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) that they were declining to stand for re-appointment as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.”
From an 8-K filed 28 January 2026: Change of auditor. Read it in the filing
A 10-K is the yearly report every US company files with the SEC. An 8-K is a short notice of a big event.
What could go wrong
- Sales have shrunk: 0.4% a year.
- It owes more than it owns on paper (negative equity). Often that's from borrowing to buy back shares.
Whether the price already reflects the risks is what the deep dive is for.
The deep dive
Everything above is arithmetic on public filings. The deep dive reads the last ten years of annual reports, the proxy statements, and the earnings calls, then argues the case the way Buffett, Klarman, and Hohn would, and checks every claim against the source.
- What the business is worth, as a range, and the margin of safety at today’s price
- Prices to start buying, buy, and buy hard
- The three things that would make this a mistake
