Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 - Organization and Business Operations
Caring Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation and was incorporated on April 24, 2024. On September 24, 2024, the Company entered into a separation and exchange agreement with Safety Shot, Inc. (“Shot”) pursuant to which, Shot exchanged its right, title and interest in and to Caring Brands, Inc., a Florida corporation (“CB FL”), free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and in exchange thereof, the Company accepted and agreed to assume all obligations of CB FL (see Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies). The Company’s principal business is the over-the-counter and prescription-grade health and wellness products.
Going Concern Consideration
The accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the
Company incurred a net loss of $
Although the Company completed its initial public
offering in November 2025, generating net proceeds of approximately $
Management believes that existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months; however, there can be no assurance that additional capital will not be required. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial information. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, or for any other interim period or for any other future year. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
| 5 |
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and equivalents for purposes of the statement of cash flows.
From time to time, the Company may maintain bank
balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of $
Inventory
Inventories will be stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company will periodically review the value of items in inventory and provide write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold. Inventory is based upon the average cost method of accounting.
Net loss per share is computed pursuant to section ASC 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants, convertible securities and preferred stock, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. As such, options, warrants, convertible securities, and preferred stock are not considered in the calculations, as the impact of the potential shares of Common Stock would be to decrease the loss per share.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates its revenue from the sale of its products directly to the end user (the “customer”). The Company recognizes revenues by applying the following steps in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements; 1) identify the contract with a customers, 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, 3) determine the transactions price, 4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.
| 6 |
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when goods or products are shipped on a FOB shipping point basis as title passes when shipped. Our products are generally paid in advance of shipment or standard net 30 days and we offer no specific right of return, refund or warranty related to our products except for cases of defective products of which there have been none to date. The Company does not currently have meaningful revenue in different geographic regions or channels and therefore does not disaggregate its revenue for reporting purposes.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had no contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on its condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Equity Investments
The Company elected to record equity investments in privately held companies using the measurement alternative at cost, less impairment, with subsequent adjustments for observable price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.
Equity investments in privately held companies accounted for using the measurement alternative are subject to periodic impairment reviews. The Company’s impairment analysis considers both qualitative and quantitative factors that may have a significant effect on the fair value of these equity securities.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property, including license agreements, is recorded at cost and amortized over its estimated useful life using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates its intellectual property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, in accordance with ASC 360.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company identified impairment indicators related to its intellectual property, including ongoing litigation involving the licensor, lack of development or commercialization activities, and significant uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to utilize the licensed technology.
Based on management’s assessment, the Company determined that the carrying amount of the intellectual property was not recoverable, as the expected undiscounted future cash flows were insufficient to recover its carrying value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a full impairment charge to write down the intellectual property to its estimated fair value of zero as of December 31, 2025.
No impairment charge was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Schedule of Intellectual Property
| Useful Life | ||
| Intellectual Property |
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
The Company has adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
| 7 |
Mezzanine Equity
Where ordinary or preferred shares are determined to be conditionally redeemable upon the occurrence of certain events that are not solely within the control of the issuer, and upon such event, the shares would become redeemable at the option of the holders, they are classified as ‘mezzanine equity’ (temporary equity). The purpose of this classification is to convey that such a security may not be permanently part of equity and could result in a demand for cash, securities or other assets of the entity in the future.
The Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) was accounted for as mezzanine equity in accordance with ASC 480.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates under
Income Taxes
Prior to the separation of the Company from its then parent, the Company was included as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Safety Shot, Inc., and as such, the Company followed the guidance under ASC 740-10-30-27 to account for income taxes using the separate return approach. The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty
in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process
for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides
guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. The Company
incurred losses of $
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include a. affiliates of the Company; b. entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d. principal owners of the Company; e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement. See Note 4 – Intangible Assets, Note 5 – Investment in NovoDX, a Related Party, Note 7 – Debt, and Note 10 Stockholders’ Equity and Mezzanine Equity.
The related party mentioned in Note 4 and Note 5 is a former director at Safety Shot, a former director of Caring Brands and a current director of NovoDX Corporation. Additionally, NovoDX is a related party due to the shares of the Company’s common stock it holds as a result of the shares issued in connection with the License Agreement described in Note 4.
In addition to the related party relationships described above, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company repurchased shares of its common stock from certain related parties, including Brian S. John, Tyler Moore, and NovoDX, in connection with the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock private placement. See Note 10 - Stockholders’ Equity and Mezzanine Equity for further detail regarding these transactions.

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The standard requires additional disclosures, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses included in the captions presented on the face of the income statement. The new guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2027, and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects ASU 2024-03 to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-04, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is intended to reduce diversity in practice and improve existing guidance, primarily by revising the definition of a “performance condition” and eliminating forfeiture policy election for service conditions associated with share-based consideration payable to a customer. In addition, ASU No. 2025-04 clarifies that the guidance in ASC 606 on the variable consideration constraints does not apply to share-based consideration payable to a customer regardless of whether an award’s grant date has occurred (as determined under ASC 718). ASU No. 2025-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. We plan to adopt ASU No. 2025-04 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2028. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our financial statements and disclosures.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the effect of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). 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. The new requirements apply to all entities subject to income taxes and will be effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2026. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects ASU 2023-09 to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition. Please refer to Note 12, Income taxes for the inclusion of the new required disclosures.

The Company computes basic net income per share using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net income per share amounts are calculated using the treasury stock method for equity-based compensation awards. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, using the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as applicable.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had the following potentially dilutive securities outstanding:
| ● | Series A preferred stock: shares (See Note 10) | |
| ● | Common stock payable: shares (See Note 10) | |
| ● | Warrants: shares (See Note 10) | |
| ● | Stock options: shares (See Note 10) | |
| ● | Restricted stock units(“RSUs”): shares |
Potentially dilutive securities include convertible debt, common stock payable, warrants, stock options, and restricted stock units. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, these instruments were excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2026 to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Revenue and Cost of revenue
The Company generated no revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to revenue of $1,469 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Cost of revenue was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $678 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company’s revenue and cost of revenue in the prior year period were inconsequential and reflected early-stage product activity. The Company is still in the process of developing and commercializing its products and has not yet generated meaningful commercial revenue.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $1,721,499 , compared to $540,134 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $1,181,365 , or approximately 219%, was primarily attributable to payroll expenses and professional service fees.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $88,536 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $30,159 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $58,377 reflects higher corporate overhead costs, including public company compliance, insurance, and administrative expenses. Payroll expenses were 1,100,700 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $367,033 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $733,667 , or approximately 200%, reflects the expansion of management and operational personnel necessary to support commercialization efforts and public company reporting requirements, including stock-based compensation for consulting and advisory services in connection with the Genesis agreement. Professional service fees totalled $532,263 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $67,942 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $464,321 , or approximately 683%, was primarily attributable to higher legal, accounting, consulting, and audit fees incurred in connection with capital markets activities, including the issuance of the Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, consulting and advisory services in connection with the Genesis agreement, and ongoing public company compliance obligations. Depreciation and amortization expense was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is attributable to the full impairment of the Company’s intellectual property license recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025, resulting in no remaining amortizable balance in the current period.
No impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company reported an operating loss of $1,721,499 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $539,343 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in operating loss of $1,182,156 , or approximately 219%, was primarily driven by higher payroll, stock-based compensation for consulting services, and professional service fees, partially offset by the absence of depreciation and amortization in the current period.
Other income (expense)
Interest expense, net was $286,977 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $427 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $286,550 was primarily attributable to non-cash interest charges consisting of $139,629 of guaranteed interest on convertible debt and $135,947 of amortization of unamortized debt discounts, as well as $6,903 of amortization of debt issuance costs, all associated with the Company’s convertible instruments and outstanding debt obligations during the current quarter, as further discussed in Note 7 – Debt.
Financial condition, liquidity and capital resources
Overview
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,033,438, compared to $2,189,232 as of December 31, 2025. The decrease of $155,794 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily attributable to cash used in operating activities of $550,794, partially offset by net cash provided by financing activities of $395,000 relating to Private Investment in Public Equity financing (“PIPE Financing”) proceeds, net of the repurchase of common stock.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company raised gross proceeds of $3,470,000 from a private placement of its Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. Concurrent with the PIPE Financing, the Company repurchased 6,250,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate consideration of $3,075,000. The net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $395,000.
| 18 |
Total assets decreased to $2,171,749 as of March 31, 2026, compared to $2,326,818 as of December 31, 2025. The decrease of $155,069 was primarily driven by the net decrease in cash and cash equivalents, while inventory remained unchanged and prepaid expenses and other current assets remained relatively stable. The Company had no non-current assets as of either balance sheet date.
Total liabilities increased to $384,473 as of March 31, 2026, compared to $235,494 as of December 31, 2025. The increase of $148,979 was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts payable of $202,669, primarily related to consulting services incurred in connection with the Genesis agreement, and an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $4,960, partially offset by a decrease in long-term debt of $58,650 due to the conversion of the Greentree Promissory Note.
The Company’s primary cash requirements consist of funding operating expenses, including payroll and professional service fees, and supporting corporate development and compliance activities as a public company.
Based on current operating plans and available cash on hand, management believes that existing cash resources are sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months. The Company may seek additional capital in the future to support long-term growth initiatives, strategic investments, or acquisitions. Such financing, if pursued, may include equity offerings, debt financing, or other strategic transactions; however, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
Our ability to meet our operating, investing and financing needs depends to a significant extent on our future financial performance, which will be subject in part to general economic, competitive, financial, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control, including those described elsewhere in Part II, Item 1A “Risk factors.”

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities of $241,774 was primarily attributable to a net loss of $538,770, partially offset by non-cash stock-based compensation of $225,000 (shares issued for services), and changes in working capital including an increase in accounts payable of $28,809, partially offset by a decrease in accrued expenses of $8,859 and an increase in prepaid expenses of $23,205.

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements required the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases estimates on historical experience and other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and evaluates these estimates on an on-going basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates. There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, except as described below.
Intellectual property, including license agreements, is recorded at cost and amortized over the estimated useful life of the license using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates its intellectual property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, in accordance with ASC 360. During the year ended December 31, 2025, management determined that the carrying value of the intellectual property was not recoverable and recorded a full impairment charge of $2,550,000. As a result, the Company had no remaining intellectual property balance as of December 31, 2025 or March 31, 2026, and accordingly no amortization expense was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026. No impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
The Company has adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
Mezzanine Equity – Redeemable Preferred Stock
The Company’s Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity (“mezzanine equity”) in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, as the preferred stock is redeemable upon the occurrence of events not solely within the Company’s control. The preferred stock is initially recorded at the proceeds allocated to it upon issuance and is subsequently adjusted to its redemption value at each reporting period end through charges to accumulated deficit. The accretion to redemption value is treated as a deemed dividend and is reflected as an adjustment to net loss to arrive at net loss attributable to common stockholders in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded accretion of $1,844,607 to reflect the Series A Preferred Stock at its redemption value.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Recent accounting pronouncements
New accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The standard requires additional disclosures, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses included in the captions presented on the face of the income statement. The new guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2027, and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects ASU 2024-03 to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-04, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is intended to reduce diversity in practice and improve existing guidance, primarily by revising the definition of a “performance condition” and eliminating forfeiture policy election for service conditions associated with share-based consideration payable to a customer. In addition, ASU No. 2025-04 clarifies that the guidance in ASC 606 on the variable consideration constraints does not apply to share-based consideration payable to a customer regardless of whether an award’s grant date has occurred (as determined under ASC 718). ASU No. 2025-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. We plan to adopt ASU No. 2025-04 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2028. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our financial statements and disclosures.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the effect of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). 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. The new requirements apply to all entities subject to income taxes and will be effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2026. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects ASU 2023-09 to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition. Please refer to Note 12, Income taxes for the inclusion of the new required disclosures.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”) and are not required to provide the information under this item.
| 21 |
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of March 31, 2026.
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act 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 management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026 due to the following deficiencies that we believe to be material weaknesses.
| ● | The Company’s system of internal controls failed to identify multiple journal entries that were identified by the Company’s external auditor. | |
| ● | The Company has no formal control process related to the identification and approval of related party transactions. |
We are in the process of designing and implementing enhanced controls and formalizing our internal control environment to remediate this material weakness.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
| 22 |
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal proceedings.
From time to time, we may become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings. We are not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk factors.
The Company has included in Item 1A of Part 1 of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“Form 10-K”), a description of certain risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company’s business, future performance, or financial condition (the “Risk Factors”). There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors we previously disclosed in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC. Our operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider immaterial to our business.
Item 2. Unregistered sales of equity securities and use of proceeds.
Other than as described in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC, we have not completed any additional unregistered sales of equity securities.
Use of Proceeds
The Company completed its public offering in connection with its uplisting to Nasdaq on November 14, 2025. A registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-289767) relating to the offering was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and became effective on October 30, 2025. The public offering consisted of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a public offering price of $4.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $4,000,000. After deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses of $764,308, the Company received net proceeds of $3,235,692.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company has utilized a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to support its operations and transition to a public company. Such expenditures included working capital and operating expenses, including payroll and general corporate expenses, legal and accounting fees associated with public company reporting and compliance, product development and commercialization activities, repayment of certain outstanding indebtedness, and other administrative expenses.
Given the timing of the offering in November 2025, a significant portion of the net proceeds remained unutilized and was held as cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026 to support ongoing operations. The Company intends to continue to use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes, including supporting ongoing operations, product development, and potential strategic initiatives.
