AKAN (short): Failed cannabis co shut down sole revenue source (Canmart) in Mar 2025, pivoted to Mexican telecom infrastructure (First Towers) generating ~$258K annual revenue vs ~$4.8M opex burn. $57.4M accumulated deficit, 91% of capital raised lost. $26M debt (up 7x), $1.3M cash, going concern. 6.7M registered conversion shares vs 534K float (12x overhang) from $19M toxic convertibles at 85% VWAP discount.
