An update from T Stamp, Inc. Class A ( (IDAI) ) is now available.

On June 25, 2026, Trust Stamp, Inc. entered into a secured note financing with Streeterville Capital LLC, issuing a $5.51 million promissory note with a $500,000 original issue discount and $10,000 in transaction costs, for net proceeds of $5 million. The four-year note accrues 9% interest, carries a 7% exit fee on repayments after December 25, 2026, is secured by all company assets, and includes extensive covenants restricting new debt or liens as well as stringent default and mandatory prepayment provisions tied to future fundraising.

In a concurrent press release on June 25, 2026, the company said the financing, structured as a 24‑month loan that can be repaid at any time, was chosen over equity issuance to counter apparent short selling pressure and demonstrate ample liquidity, lifting cash and receivables to more than $7.6 million. Management characterized the recent short selling as opportunistic manipulation rather than a reflection of business fundamentals and signaled further communication with shareholders via an upcoming business update and conference call in July 2026.

The most recent analyst rating on (IDAI) stock is a Buy  
with a $8.00 price target.

**Spark’s Take on IDAI Stock**

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, IDAI is a Neutral.

The score is primarily held back by weak financial quality—deep losses and significant ongoing cash burn—despite improving revenue and a less-stressed leverage profile. Technicals also weigh negatively due to a strong downtrend and bearish momentum, with oversold indicators only partially offsetting. Valuation is neutral-to-mixed because the company is unprofitable and provides no dividend yield.
