NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, we have included all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in our Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on June 16, 2025. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
Basis of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2025 include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Data 443 Risk Mitigation, Inc., a North Carolina operating company. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with US GAAP. All inter company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounts Receivable
Trade
receivables are generally recorded at the invoice amount mostly for a one-year period, net of an allowance for credit loss. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, we recorded bad debt expense of $ and $
Employees - We account for stock-based compensation under the fair value method which requires all such compensation to employees, including the grant of employee stock options, to be calculated based on its fair value at the measurement date (generally the grant date), and recognized in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.
Nonemployees - Under the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Stock-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”), we account for stock-based compensation to non-employees under the fair value method which requires all such compensation to be calculated based on the fair value at the measurement date (generally the grant date), and recognized in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.
We recorded approximately $ in stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $ in stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Determining the appropriate fair value model and the related assumptions requires judgment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the fair value of each option grant was estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected volatility represents the historical volatility of our publicly traded common stock. Due to limited historical data, we calculate the expected life based on the mid-point between the vesting date and the contractual term which is in accordance with the simplified method. The expected term for options granted to nonemployees is the contractual life. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of stock options. We have not paid and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our shares of Common stock; therefore, the expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero.
Contingencies
We account for contingent liabilities in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 450, Contingencies. This standard requires management to assess potential contingent liabilities that may exist as of the date of the financial statements to determine the probability and amount of loss that may have occurred, which inherently involves an exercise of judgment. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in our financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed in our financial statements. For loss contingencies considered remote, we generally would neither accrue any estimated liability nor disclose the nature of the contingent liability in our financial statements. Management has assessed potential contingent liabilities as of September 30, 2025, and based on that assessment, there are no probable or possible loss contingencies requiring accrual or establishment of a reserve.
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and as if converted method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, warrant and convertible notes.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), intended to improve reportable segments disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses.
ASU 2023-07 includes a requirement to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, the title and position of the CODM, an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, and all segments’ profit or loss and assets disclosures. ASU 2023-07 is effective for all public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods for the interim period beginning on January 1, 2025. Adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement.
On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures. The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, applies to all entities subject to income taxes. For public business entities (PBEs), the new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities (non-PBEs), the requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The adoption of Topic 280 did not result in a change to the Company’s segment structure or to the method used to allocate resources among segments.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3: LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the financial statements, we have incurred significant current period losses and we have negative working capital and an accumulated deficit. We have relied upon loans and issuances of our equity to fund our operations. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters, include raising additional debt or equity financing, the terms of which might not be acceptable. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 4. SEGEMENT INFORMATION
The Company is engaged in a single line of business to deliver solutions and capabilities that businesses can use in conjunction with their use of established cloud vendors. The Company has identified the Chief Executive Officer of the Company as the CODM, who uses revenues and expenses to evaluate the business, predominantly in the cash forecasting process, to make resource allocation decisions at the entity level.. The Company’s operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using information of the Company as a whole. As a result, no disaggregated segment information is presented. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
NOTE 5: PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Slate Advance Agreement
In
March 2023 we entered into an agreement (the “Slate Agreement”) with Slate Advance (“Slate”) pursuant to which
we sold $
In order to secure payment and performance of the Company’s obligations to Slate under the Slate Agreement, the Company granted to Slate a security interest in the following collateral: all accounts receivable and all proceeds as such term is defined by Article 9 of the UCC. We also agreed not to create, incur, assume, or permit to exist, directly or indirectly, any lien on or with respect to any of such collateral.
We analyzed the transaction under the guidance of ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring to determine if the transaction qualified as a troubled debt restructuring. For a debt restructuring to be considered troubled, the debtor must be experiencing financial difficulty, and the creditor must have granted a concession. We analyzed the Slate Transaction under ASC 470-60 and determined that we met one of the definitions of a company experiencing financial difficulty, such as currently in default of any of our debts. As we are not in default, the fair value of the debt has not changed, we did not recognize gain or loss as the fair value has not changed, and the future undiscounted cash flows are not greater or smaller than the carrying value, the creditor has not granted any concessions. We believe that the debt does not fall into the troubled debt restructuring guidance since no concessions were granted by the creditor.

NOTE 12: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Employment Related Claims
We view most legal proceedings involving claims of former employees as routine litigation incidental to the business, and therefore not material.
Litigation
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in a number of lawsuits incidental to our business, including litigation related to intellectual property, employees, and commercial matters. Although it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of these cases, management believes that any ultimate liability would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. However, an unforeseen unfavorable development in any of these cases could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows in the period in which it is recorded.

| ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024 should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 (the “Quarterly Report”).
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report includes statements that express our opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements.” All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report may be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “estimates,” “continues,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “seeks,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “would” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. They appear in a number of places throughout this Quarterly Report, and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, future acquisitions, and the industry in which we operate.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We believe that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Annual Report, which include, but are not limited to, the following:
| ● | we will need additional capital to fund our operations; | |
| ● | there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern; | |
| ● | we will face intense competition in our market, and we may lack sufficient financial and other resources to maintain and improve our competitive position; | |
| ● | we are dependent on the continued services and performance of our founder and Chief Executive Officer, Jason Remillard; | |
| ● | our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink and is thinly traded, reducing your ability to liquidate your investment in us; | |
| ● | we have had a history of losses and may incur future losses, which may prevent us from attaining profitability; | |
| ● | the market price of our common stock may be volatile and may fluctuate in a way that is disproportionate to our operating performance; | |
| ● | we have shares of preferred stock that have special rights that could limit our ability to undertake corporate transactions, inhibit potential changes of control, and reduce the proceeds available to our common stockholders in the event of a change in control; | |
| ● | we have never paid and do not intend to pay cash dividends; | |
| ● | our Chief Executive Officer has the ability to control all matters submitted to stockholders for approval, which limits our stockholders’ ability to influence corporate affairs; and | |
| ● | the other factors described in “Risk Factors.” |
Those factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read with the other cautionary statements in this quarterly report.
| 20 |
Although we base these forward-looking statements on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments may differ materially from statements made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report. The matters summarized under “Overview”, “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Business” and elsewhere in this quarterly report could cause our actual results to differ significantly from those contained in our forward-looking statements. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.
In light of these risks and uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement that we make in this quarterly report speaks only as of the date of such statement, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or to publicly announce the results of any revision to any of those statements to reflect future events or developments, except as required by applicable law. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless specifically expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
Overview
We provide data security and privacy management solutions across the enterprise and in the cloud. With over 10,000 customers, we provide the visibility and control needed to protect data at scale, regardless of format, location, or consumer, and to facilitate compliance with fast-changing global data privacy requirements. Our customers include established leaders and up-and-coming businesses spanning the private and public/government sectors across diverse industries and fields, including financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, technology, and telecommunications.
The mounting ransomware landscape and other threats to data have accelerated the rate at which businesses are adopting data security solutions and we believe that our portfolio of data security and privacy products provides a comprehensive solution set that we believe positions us to capitalize on that increased adoption rate and to establish our products as new data privacy and security standards. Our offerings are anchored in reliable and comprehensive privacy management and equip organizations with a seamless approach to safeguard data, protect against attacks, and otherwise mitigate the most critical risks.
Sector-specific US laws, state-level legislation, and outside-the-United States (OUS) regulations are confounding enterprises of all sizes for whom safeguarding and stewarding data is key, but for whom becoming specialists in privacy and security is not an element of their strategic roadmap. For many of these enterprises, we can bridge the gap between their need to protect data and their need to use their resources to grow their core business by offering turnkey solutions and related counseling and technical support to offset risks from data breaches and security incidents of various types. We provide products and services for the marketplace that are designed to protect data that is stored in the cloud, on-premises, and in hybrid cloud/on-premises environments, and data that is transmitted throughout the enterprise, including but not limited to by remote employees. Our suite of security products focuses on protecting sensitive files and email, confidential customer, patient and employee data, financial records, strategic and product plans, intellectual property and other proprietary information, allowing our customers to create, share, and protect their sensitive data wherever it is stored and however it is used.
We deliver solutions and capabilities that businesses can use in conjunction with their use of established cloud vendors such as Microsoft® Azure, Google® Cloud Platform (GCP), and Amazon® Web Services (AWS), as well as with on-premises databases and database applications and with virtualization platforms, such as those hosted or configured using VMWare®, Citrix®, and Oracle® products.
We sell or plan to sell substantially all of our products and services through a sales model that combines the leverage of a channel sales model or direct account management, thereby providing us with opportunities to grow our current customer base and deliver our value proposition for data privacy and security. We endeavor to use subscription models to license products and services, commonly for a paid in-advance, multiyear term that is auto-renewing. We also make use of channel partners, distributors, and resellers which sell to end-users of the products and services. This approach allows us to maintain close relationships with our customers and benefit from the global reach of our partners. Additionally, we are enhancing our product offerings and go-to-market strategy by establishing technology alliances within the IT infrastructure and security vendor ecosystem. Our sales and marketing focus for new organic growth is on organizations with 500 or more users who are adopting cloud services and can make larger purchases with us over time and have a greater potential lifetime value.
We continue to onboard to cloud-native technology adoption portals such as the Microsoft® Azure Marketplace and the Amazon® AWS Marketplace. Vendors may offer incentives to us as a software and services provider to onboard and market via their marketplace portals.
| 21 |
We strive to create new and innovative products and to improve existing products, proactively identifying and solving the data security needs of our customers.
As cloud adoption continues to accelerate, data privacy requirements get more complex, and data security becomes more challenging, we believe we are well positioned to capture more market share, continue to lead in strategic data security technology development, and prepare organizations for the next epoch in IT data privacy services.
Our Products
Each of our major product lines provides features and functionality that we believe enable our customers to optimally secure their data. Our products are modular, giving our customers the flexibility to select what they require for their business needs and to expand their usage by simply adding a license.

Outlook
Our objective is to further integrate our suite of data security, ransomware protection, and privacy products and offer the products alone or in combination to enterprise customers directly and via our partner channels. We aim to position our products to meet the challenges our customers face - data privacy concerns grow in lockstep with security breaches, the need to continually expand data storage, and to meet telework, telehealth, and remote learning requirements.
We have relied on and expect to continue to benefit from strategic acquisitions of products, talent, and an established customer base to contribute to our long-term growth objectives.
Key elements of our growth strategy may be summarized as follows:
Acquisitions. We intend to aggressively pursue acquisitions of other cybersecurity software and service providers focused on the data security sector. We target companies with a developed and/or steady client base, as well as companies with offerings that complement our existing suite of products.
Research & Development; Innovation. We intend to increase our spending on research and development to create new and innovative products and to improve existing products, proactively identifying and solving the data security needs of our clients.
Grow Our Customer Base. We believe the continued challenges businesses face in managing their enterprise data and the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats will keep the demand high for the type of products and services we offer. We intend to capitalize on this demand by continually developing and curating a collection of products and services that are attractive and relevant to both our established revenue base and to new customers.
Expand Our Sales Capacity. We believe that continuing to expand our sales force will be essential to achieving our expansion and growth. We intend to expand our sales capacity by adding sales and marketing employees, with heavy focus on customer success and leveraging our existing customer relationships.
| 23 |
Management’s Plans
Our plan is to continue to grow our business through strategic acquisitions, and then expand selling across our subsidiaries and affiliated companies. During the next twelve months, we anticipate incurring costs related to (i) filing of Exchange Act reports; and (ii) operating our businesses. We will require additional operating capital to maintain and continue operations. We will need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financing, and there is no assurance we will be able to raise the necessary capital.
While we primarily report income based on recognized and deferred revenue, another measurement internally for the business is booked revenues. Management uses this measure to track numerous indicators such as: contract value growth; initial contract value per customer; and certain other values that change quarter-over-quarter. These results may also be subject to, and impacted by, sales compensation plans, internal performance objectives, and other activities. We continue to increase revenue from our existing operations. We generally recognize revenue from customers ratably over the terms of their subscription, which is generally one year at a time. As a result, a substantial portion of the revenue we report in each period is attributable to the recognition of deferred revenue relating to agreements that we executed during previous periods. Consequently, any increase or decline in new sales or renewals in any one period will not be immediately reflected in our revenue for that period. Any such change, however, would affect our revenue in future periods. Accordingly, the effect of downturns or upturns in new sales and potential changes in our rate of renewals may not be fully reflected in our results of operations until future periods.
Recent Developments
Acquisition of Certain Assets of Cyren Ltd.
On May 15, 2023 we entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets (the “Cyren Assets”) of Cyren Ltd. (“Cyren”) a company that provided emerging and high-volume risk mitigation services for some of the world’s largest name brand organizations prior to its bankruptcy filing in February 2023. Pursuant to a purchase agreement, the appointed receiver for the Cyren Assets (the “Receiver”) agreed to sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to us, and we agreed to purchase from the Receiver, all right, title, and interest in and to the Cyren Assets, as further described in the purchase agreement, as amended on December 12, 2023 (as so amended, the “Purchase Agreement”). On December 15, 2023 we closed the transaction.
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we acquired goodwill, clients, proprietary technology and intellectual property related to three services: threat intelligence, URL categorization and email security. We believe the transaction enhances our existing product portfolio and accelerates the development of next-generation solutions. Cyren’s technology is based on a combination of artificial intelligence, machine learning and big-data analytics, which we believe enables Cyren to identify and mitigate threats in real time, sooner than many competitors.
Cyren’s clients include some of the world’s largest name brand organizations and provides fast-breaking threat detection services and threat intelligence to major firewall vendors, email providers, leading cybersecurity vendors, and other industries such as gaming and e-commerce.
We believe that the Cyren technology, services and customers strengthen our competitive position by broadening our product offerings and enhancing our technological capabilities.

Revenue
The decrease in revenue is due to lack of “catch up” invoicing which occurred in prior periods from Cyren Engine cyber security products and multi-year renewals of our legacy data security products. We continue to see organic growth in increased consumption of our services that contain storage or volume components, matching our expectations and as is reflected in our continuing Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR’) growth.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of direct expenses, such as labor, shipping, and supplies. The decrease in cost of revenue is a result of our significant efforts to reduce/minimize the operating footprint of the Cyren Assets and our significant cost saving efforts.
Operating Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 our operating expenses were as follows:

General and Administrative Expenses
The general and administrative expenses primarily consisted of management costs, costs to integrate assets we acquired and to expand sales, product enhancements, audit and review fees, filing fees, professional fees, and other expenses related to SEC reporting, in connection with the projected growth of our business. Additionally, we continue to incur specific one-time costs in relation to our planned national exchange-based uplisting, additional financing activities and related functions. The decrease in general and administrative expense was primarily due to our significant cost-saving efforts.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
The sales and marketing expenses primarily consisted of additional focus on cross-sell, upsell and growth in existing contracts from customers. As our retention activities of the assets of Cyren customer base has largely transitioned to increased consumption and quality of service delivery efforts. The increase in sales and marketing expense is primarily due to changes in staffing related to the sales and marketing function.
Other income (expense)
Other income (expenses) for the three months ended September 30, 2025 consisted primarily of interest expense. Other expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 consisted of interest expense.
Net Loss
Net loss decreased 57% from $1,281,999 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $602,434 for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The net loss was mainly derived from an operating loss of $561,858, and interest expense of $58,841. The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was mainly derived from an operating loss of $814,646, and interest expense of $466,200. The decrease in Net Loss was primarily due to the decrease in cost of revenue as we focused on reducing our spend on data center cost related to the Cyren asset acquisition and a decrease in interest expense.

Net loss decreased 64% from $4,421,955 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to $1,597,069 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The net loss was mainly derived from an operating loss of $932,740, and interest expense of $681,255. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was mainly derived from an operating loss of $2,128,744, and interest expense of $2,287,538.
Accumulated Losses
We had a net operating loss carryfowards of approximately $6 million from prior operations in 2017, before our current President and Chief Executive Officer acquired a controlling interest in the company. Subsequent to this and through September 30, 2025, we have relied on convertible notes and other debt instruments that may contain unfavorable discounts, origination fees, and have embedded conversion features that are subject to derivative treatment for accounting purposes. Due primarily to this treatment of convertible notes, debt and related derivative accounting, since 2017, we have accumulated deficits of approximately $14.1 million due to derivative valuations and $17 million expensed for interest and amortization of debt discounts for financing and other origination fees.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table provides selected financial data about our company as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

We require cash to fund our operating expenses and working capital requirements, including outlays for capital expenditures. As of September 30, 2025, we had cash balance of $49,086 and our principal sources of liquidity were trade accounts receivable of $85,745, as compared to cash of $168,208 and trade accounts receivable of $31,776 as of December 31, 2024.
During the last two years, and through the date of this Report, we have faced an increasingly challenging liquidity situation that has limited our ability to execute our operating plan. We will need to obtain capital to continue operations. There is no assurance that we will be able to secure such funding on acceptable terms. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we reported a loss from operations of $508,258.
As of September 30, 2025, we had assets of cash in the amount of $49,086 and other current assets in the amount of $85,745. As of September 30, 2025, we had current liabilities of $16,918,019. Our accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2025 was $63,287,487.
As of December 31, 2024, we had assets of cash in the amount of $168,208 and other current assets in the amount of $31,776. As of December 31, 2024, we had current liabilities of $16,981,610. We accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2024 was $61,744,018.
| 27 |
The revenues generated from our current operations will not be sufficient to fund our planned growth. We will require additional capital to continue to operate our business, and to further expand our business. Sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements with third parties may include equity or debt financing, bank loans or revolving credit facilities. We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means. Unless we can attract additional investment, our operating as a going concern is in doubt.
We are now obligated to file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities of ours more time-consuming and costly. In order to meet the needs to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act, we will need investment of capital.
Management has determined that additional capital will be required in the form of equity or debt securities. There is no assurance that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may have to cease filing the required reports and cease operations completely. If we obtain additional funds by selling any of our equity securities or by issuing common stock to pay current or future obligations, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, or the equity securities may have rights preferences or privileges senior to the common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting periods presented.
Our critical estimates include revenue recognition and intangible assets. Although we believe that these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates given a change in conditions or assumptions that have been consistently applied. We also have other policies that we consider key accounting policies, such as our policy for revenue recognition, however, the application of these policies does not require us to make significant estimates or judgments that are difficult or subjective.
The critical accounting policies used by management and the methodology for its estimates and assumptions are as follows:
Convertible Financial Instruments
We bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free standing derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as that term is described under applicable GAAP.
When we have determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments, discounts are recorded for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in the instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the commitment date of the transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the instrument.
| 29 |
Stock-Based Compensation
We measure the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date. For non-employees, as per ASU No. 2018-7, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Stock-Based Payment Accounting, remeasurement is not required. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded by us in the same expense classifications in the consolidated statements of operations, as if such amounts were paid in cash. Also, refer to Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the consolidated financial statements that are included in this Annual Report.
| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information regarding this Item.
| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. However, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under Exchange Act) as of the end of the period reported on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and have concluded that we have material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting as described below. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures were not sufficient to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2024.
Management’s Report of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. An evaluation was performed of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The evaluation was based on the framework in 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
| 30 |
Based on our evaluation under the criteria set forth in 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework, our management concluded that, as of September 30, 2025 our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of the identification of material weaknesses described as follows:
| ● | We did not have controls designed to validate the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the determination of accounting transactions. Accordingly, we believe we have a material weakness because there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the interim or annual consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. | |
| ● | We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. | |
| ● | We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. | |
| ● | We do not have a functioning audit committee or outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. |
Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is committed to improving its internal controls when we have adequate resources to do so, we appointed a full-time Chief Financial Officer in September but do not currently have independent directors or an audit committee. Until there are independent directors and an audit committee, we will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties by (i) continuing to use third party specialists to assist us with accounting and finance; and (ii) commissioning frequent reconciliations of significant accounts using independent auditors.
Our Management has discussed the material weaknesses noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of these material weaknesses, it is reasonably possible that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected during our financial close and reporting process.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith (including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement), shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. “Other Agreements” means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term “Other Agreements” shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note.

| 3 |
If the Borrower fails to pay the Default Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall have the right at any time, to convert the balance owed pursuant to the note including the Default Amount into shares of common stock of the Company as set forth herein.
ARTICLE IV. CONVERSION RIGHTS
4.1 Conversion Right. At any time following an Event of Default, the Holder shall have the right, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B(the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 4.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 4.4 hereof.
The Holder shall be entitled to deduct $1,500.00 from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s deposit fees associated with each Notice of Conversion. Any additional expenses incurred by Holder with respect to the Borrower’s transfer agent, for the issuance of the Common Stock into which this Note is convertible into, shall immediately and automatically be added to the balance of the Note at such time as the expenses are incurred by Holder.
| 4 |
4.2 Conversion Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall mean 61% multiplied by the lowest Trading Price for the Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Days prior to the Conversion Date (representing a discount rate of 39%) (subject to equitable adjustments by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). “Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date, the closing bid price on the OTCQB, OTCQX, Pink Sheets electronic quotation system or applicable trading market (the “OTC”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTC is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets”. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
4.3 Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period that the Note is outstanding, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved six times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (the “Reserved Amount”). The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in accordance with the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under this Note.
4.4 Method of Conversion.
(a) Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 4.1 hereof, at any time following an Event of Default, the balance due pursuant to this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 4.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
| 5 |
(b) Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 4.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d) Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system.
| 6 |
(e) Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $2,000 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the “Fail to Deliver Fee”); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 4.4(e) are justified.
4.5 Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”); or (iii) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 4.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
Any restrictive legend on certificates representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel from Holder’s counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that (i) a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected; or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act; or otherwise may be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration. In the event that the Company does not reasonably accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration (such as Rule 144), it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to this Note.
4.6 Effect of Certain Events.
(a) Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
| 7 |
(b) Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 4.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c) Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.
ARTICLE V. MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privileges.
