NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of accounting policies for Capstone Companies, Inc. (“CAPC”, “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”), a Florida corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
Organization and Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2025, and results of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. All material intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC relating to interim financial statements and in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Certain information and note disclosures have been condensed or omitted in the condensed financial statements pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made herein are adequate to make the information not misleading. The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025 and April 8, 2025, respectively.
The operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any other interim period or the full fiscal year.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
As
of June 30, 2025, the Company had negative working capital of $
These liquidity conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is actively seeking alternative sources of liquidity, including but not limited to accessing the capital markets, strategic partnerships, or other alternative financing measures, but has been unable to secure unrelated, long-term funding or secure other sources of liquidity
On
October 31, 2024 the Company signed an Unsecured Promissory Note with Coppermine Ventures, LLC (“Coppermine”), a private
Maryland limited liability company based in Baltimore County, Maryland, of $
| 8 |
Unless the Company succeeds in raising additional capital or successfully increases cash generated from operations, or finds and consummates an alternative transaction to improve its financial condition, management believes there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and meet its obligations over the next twelve months from the filing date of this Form 10-Q. Other than debt financing from Coppermine Ventures, LLC for basic operating capital, the Company has not raised any third-party funding for business development or acquisitions. The Company has not consummated an alternative transaction, such as the acquisition of a revenue generating operation or business, as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q. In the second fiscal quarter of 2025, the Company has expanded the scope of its search for alternative transactions to include potential acquisitions or strategic relationships with companies engaged in industries that are complementary to the health, fitness and social activities industry. The Company has also sought to generate revenues from its Connected Chef product through the licensing arrangement described in “Connected Chef Product Line” below. The licensing arrangement has not generated any revenues as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern.
Nature of Business
The Company has its principal executive offices in Deerfield Beach, Florida.
On April 13, 2012, the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary in Hong Kong, named Capstone International Hong Kong Ltd (“CIHK”), which provided support services such as engineering, new product development, product sourcing, factory certification and compliance, product price negotiating, product testing and quality control and ocean freight logistics for the Company’s other subsidiaries. With the shift of manufacturing to Thailand from China, the CIHK operation was downsized and then became dormant as of March 2022.
LED Lighting Product Line. The Company’s focus through 2017 was the integration of LEDs into most commonly used consumer lighting products in today’s home. The LED category has matured and is no longer the innovative “must have” consumer product as in previous years, as such, revenues for the LED product line have declined significantly from previous years. From time to time, the Company receives orders from one distributor which the Company will fulfill.
Smart Mirror Product Line. The Connected Surfaces was the Company’s effort to establish business in an emerging segment that was intended for future revenue growth. The Connected Surfaces Smart Mirror products did not achieve significant sales, therefore all inventory was expensed as of December 31, 2023 and the remaining inventory on hand was liquidated as of June 30, 2024.
Connected Chef Product Line. During 2023, the Company developed the Connected Chef (“Connected Chef”), a purpose-built kitchen tablet with an accessory platform to accommodate food prep accessories such as a cutting board. The Connected Chef has Google mobile service allowing for pre-installation of specific Google applications including Playstore, voice assistant, and YouTube. The ability of the Company to promote any new, related “connected” consumer products was dependent on securing adequate, affordable and timely funding from lenders and investors, which the Company was unsuccessful in obtaining over the last few years. On March 21, 2025, the Company executed a License Agreement with a company (“Licensee”) based in the United Kingdom. The Licensee received a limited, exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license to promote, market, sell, distribute, produce and manufacture Connected Chef. Under the License, the Company would receive a license fee of $15 for each Connected Chef sold and received by a buyer. Promotion, marketing and sale of the Connected Chef is subject to finalizing production arrangements with the contract manufacturer of the Connected Chef. The term of the License is 5 years plus one (1) year, post-termination extension to permit sell off of any inventory. As of the date of this Form 10-Q filing, there have been no sales of the Connected Chef and no license revenue generated for the Company.
Health, Fitness and Social Industries. During 2024, the Company commenced its business development efforts for a business line or software development project focused on year-round health, fitness and social activities (this business line being referred to as “HFS” or “HFS business”) which development effort has been expanded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 to include software development. Due to the popularity of sports like pickle ball and flag football, health, fitness and social activities at dedicated facilities are being developed nationwide by numerous companies. Pickle ball has been the fastest growing sport in America since 2021 and its popularity is based in large part in that it can be played by all fitness active demographics groups (e.g. children, adults and elders (since it does not require the skills and athleticism of tennis or other physically demanding sports)) and can be played as a recreational or competitive amateur/collegiate and professional sport. Professional pickle ball is increasingly popular sports entertainment. A typical HFS facility offers sports like indoor and outdoor pickle ball, padel and often another recreational sport or sports (e.g. martial arts, swimming, basketball, racquetball, tennis) with a food-drink-entertainment area. Some HFS facilities add field sports like soccer, lacrosse, and football (traditional and flag) in order to host tournaments, local school competitions, or recreational league play. The HFS facilities typically seek individual, family and group memberships charging periodic fees as well as additional fees for special offerings or events. Special events consist of children summer camps, birthday parties, corporate employee outings, or corporate sponsor events promoting their specific products (e.g. drinks, cooler products, drink ware, sporting equipment, apparel) through branding which may be performed in house by the HFS facility.
| 9 |
In furtherance of the Company’s efforts in HFS business development, the Company entered into a Management Transition Agreement (“MTA”), dated October 31, 2024, with Coppermine Ventures, LLC, a private Maryland limited liability company, (“Coppermine”) to identify and nominate a chief executive officer and two board members for the Company as a management team to focus on development of the health, fitness and social business line. Coppermine operates a successful and growing health, fitness and sports business in the State of Maryland. On December 4, 2024, the Company employed an experienced founder and manager of an established health, fitness and social company, Alexander Jacobs, as Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in order to lead the HFS business development. Mr. Jacobs is the founder, senior executive and owner of Coppermine. On January 20, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) appointed Brian Rosen, a nominee of Coppermine, as a non-employee director of the Company. Mr. Rosen has a business relationship with Coppermine. The Company also appointed Warner Session, a Washington, D.C. real estate lawyer and lobbyist, as an independent director to the Board on January 9, 2025, in order to assist in the Company’s efforts to develop the health, fitness and social business line. Mr. Session’s experience and skills in real estate transaction and funding and lobbying are deemed as important skill sets for the development and operation of any HFS business.
The Company’s business concept also includes the development of software applications for customer registration and management at the Coppermine HFS facilities. On March 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Coppermine for the Company to produce a development plan for an online customer registration and management application (“CRM Application”) for Coppermine’s owned, affiliated or managed health, fitness and social activities business. On May 13, 2025, the Company and Coppermine signed an agreement whereby the Company will make an assessment and, based on that assessment, produce a written plan and proposal (“Proposal”) for the development, testing and installation of an online customer management and registration application (“Application”) for Coppermine’s year-round social, athletic, and fitness programs and events conducted at twenty (20) facilities in the State of Maryland (“Sites”). This Agreement covers only the assessment and production of the Proposal. If the Proposal is accepted by Coppermine, then the two companies would seek to negotiate a written agreement for the actual development, testing, installation and support of the Application. Coppermine will pay a flat $24,000 for the assessment and production of the Proposal. If the Company develops the Application, then the Company would explore possible commercialization of the Application through licensing of the Application to other providers of social, athletic, and fitness programs and events in the United States, subject to the terms and conditions of any written agreement for the actual development, testing, installation and support of the Application for Coppermine. As of the date of this Form 10-Q filing, there is no written agreement for the development, testing and support of the application.
For the Proposal and any subsequent software development, the Company will primarily rely upon a third-party software developer and affiliated contractors, each acting as an independent contractor of the Company, to produce the Proposal and, if work is contracted for the Application, to provide the software code, test it, make any necessary modifications and then install the developed application. As such, the ability of the Company to perform its tasks for the Proposal and Application will rely to a significant extent on the performance of its independent contractors. Any work beyond the Proposal would require the acceptance of the Proposal by Coppermine and the signing of a definitive software development agreement by the Company and Coppermine, which agreement would include the Proposal acceptable to Coppermine and the Company and a budget for fees and costs. The Company’s traditional business has not been in software development, but the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors has extensive experience in working with independent contractors and original equipment manufacturers for product development, both foreign and domestic, for the Company, and in the development of a software application at another company. The Company will rely on the experience of its Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Proposal and any subsequent work on the Application.
As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company has not entered into any legally binding agreement for the acquisition of a HFS business or launch of a HFS business line and the Company has expanded its business development efforts to include potential opportunities in industries related to HFS Business, being primarily apparel and merchandise branding in an effort to locate a viable revenue generating business. There is no assurance that the expansion of business development efforts, or HFS development efforts, will result in development of a new business line or acquisition of a new business line. The Company’s strategic focus in business development continues to be focused on HFS Business, including related industries, as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q.
The Company’s operations through June 30, 2025 consisted of only one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes, Consumer Home Goods, as there has been no revenue and no expenditures on the HFS business line.

Goodwill
On
September 13, 2006, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation (“CAPI”).
Capstone was incorporated in Florida on May 15, 1996, and was engaged primarily in the business of wholesaling technology inspired consumer
products to distributors and retailers in the United States. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued
and outstanding shares of CAPI’s Common Stock, and recorded goodwill of $
Fair Value Measurement
The accounting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC), “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820-10) requires the Company to make disclosures about the fair value of certain of its assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. ASC 820-10 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs.
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2025, and 2024. Diluted earnings 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. For calculation of the diluted earnings per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2025, and 2024, the total number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation was options, warrants and shares of Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (“B-1 Stock”) of the Company convertible into shares of common stock for 2024 and options, warrants and of B-1 stock convertible into shares of common stock for 2024.
Reclassifications
Company identified a historical misclassification within stockholders’ equity. Specifically, treasury stock repurchases had previously been presented as a reduction to additional paid-in capital (“APIC”) instead of being separately presented as treasury stock, at cost, within stockholders’ equity. This reclassification had no impact on the total stockholders’ equity, net income, earnings per share, cash flows, or previously reported results for any period.
Revenue Recognition for Consumer Product Business
The Company does not have a product line that is generating revenues as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q.
| 11 |
Direct-to-consumer orders for the Connected Surfaces Smart Mirrors were sold initially through e-commerce platforms. The Company also sold the Connected Surfaces Smart Mirror program through independent retailers. The Company only billed the customer and recognized revenue upon the customer obtaining control of the Smart Mirror order which generally occurred upon delivery.
The following table presents net revenue by geographic location which is recognized at a point in time:

| Smart Mirror Products- U.S. | % | |||||||||||||||
| Total Net Revenue | $ | $ | % | |||||||||||||
Smart Mirror customer orders were shipped within one to two days of receipt. Revenue was recorded upon processing of the sale with a third-party merchant processor such as Stripe or Amazon Pay. Lighting Product customer orders received were not long-term orders and were typically shipped within nine months of the order receipt, but certainly within a one-year period.
Our Smart Mirror customers were charged when executing the e-commerce purchase. We did not have extended payment terms for our Smart Mirror customers. Our Lighting Product payment terms varied by the type of customer, the customer’s credit standing, the location where the product will be picked up from and for international customers and which country their corporate office is located. The time between invoicing date and when payment is due may vary between 30 days and 90 days depending on the customer type. To ensure there are no payment issues, overseas customers or new customers may be required to provide a deposit or full payment before the order is delivered to the customer. During 2024, the Smart Mirror inventory was liquidated.
Sales
reductions for anticipated discounts, allowances and promotional coupons are recognized during the period the related revenue is recorded.
The discounts, allowances and promotional coupons amounted to approximately $

Warranties
Under the License Agreement for the Connected Chef, the Company is not responsible for any warranty liability associated with sales of the Connected Chef by the licensor or its distributors.
For the LED product line, the Company provided the end user with limited rights of return as a consumer assurance warranty on all products sold, stipulating that the product will function properly for the warranty period. The warranty period for all products is one year from the date of consumer purchase.

Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. There is no income tax benefit for the losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, since management has determined that the realization of the net tax deferred asset is not assured and has created a valuation allowance for the entire amount of such benefits.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions and certain other jurisdictions.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of 740 Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries file consolidated income tax returns.
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.
The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement.
Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the relaxed tax laws and regulations and require significant judgement to apply. The Company is not subject to U.S. federal, state and local tax examinations by tax authorities generally for a period of 3 years from the later of each return due date or date filed. If the Company were to subsequently record an unrecognized tax benefit, associated penalties and tax related interest expense would be recorded as a component of income tax expense.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718 Compensation- Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values. ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expenses over the requisite service periods in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. In conjunction with the adoption of ASC 718, the Company adopted the straight-line single option method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized during each of the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024 was $.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to revenue recognition, periodic impairment tests, product warranty obligations, valuation of inventories, tax related contingencies, valuation of stock-based compensation, other contingencies and litigation, among others. The Company generally bases its estimates on historical experience, agreed obligations, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Historically, past changes to these estimates have not had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. However, circumstances could change, and actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-04, Debt-Debt with Conversions and Other Option, (“ASU 2024-04”) . ASU 2024-04 is intended to clarify requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments, including convertible debt instruments with cash conversion features or convertible debt instruments that are not currently convertible, should be accounted for as an induced conversion. This ASU is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), and in January 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date ("ASU 2025-01"). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for us for our annual reporting for fiscal 2028 and for interim period reporting beginning in fiscal 2029 on a prospective basis. Both early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of these standards will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability to the Company. Where it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequence of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financials properly reflect the change.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This discussion should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 10-Q Report contains forward-looking statements that are contained principally in the sections describing our business as well as in “Risk Factors, and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained, or incorporated by reference, in this Form 10-Q Report, including, without limitation, those regarding our business strategy, business development efforts, financial position, results of operations, plans, prospects, actions taken or strategies being considered with respect to our liquidity position, valuation and appraisals of our assets and objectives of management for future operations, our ability to weather the impacts of the any pandemic or similar event, financing opportunities, and future cost mitigation and cash conservation efforts and efforts to reduce operating expenses and capital expenditures are forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the factors described in the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our latest 2024 Annual Report. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipates, “believes, “could, “estimates, “expects, “intends, “may, “plans, “potential, “predicts, “projects, “should, “would and similar expressions (including the negative and variants of such words). Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Given these uncertainties, a reader of this Form 10-Q Report should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q Report are made as of the date of filing this Form 10-Q Report. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The Company assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements for any reason, except as required by law. Examples of these risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited, to the impact of:
· Company has no product line or operations generating sufficient revenues to sustain corporate operating overhead and has relied on loans or advances from related parties to sustain basic executive operations, which funding is not assured to fund those operations past the third fiscal quarter of 2025. If Company cannot find outside funding to develop and promote a new product line or acquire a new business line in fiscal 2025, Company may lack sufficient funds to sustain operations in 2026.
· Company needs to find third party funding to fund the development, marketing and acquisition of any new product line or business. Since the Company lacks hard assets suitable for asset financing, has revenue generating operations that are not currently producing sufficient or any revenues to sustain operations into 2026, and has significant debts, and as the Common Stock has a low market price and limited liquidity, third party funding may not be available to produce and promote a new product line or acquire a new business or to sustain operations into 2026.
· Company may be unable to acquire a new business line or acquire a new business line that is able to fund the overhead necessary to maintain the Company as a public company into 2026.
· The financial condition of the Company raises a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
· The debt obligations, if not resolved or restructured, may pose a hinderance to developing a profitable new product line or acquisition of a new business line, or sustaining operations into 2026. The Company is uncertain about whether it could restructure or resolve its debt obligations, whether in connection with business development or otherwise.
· The Company may be unable to restructure or resolve all or most of its debt obligations in any transaction for acquisition of a new business or business line, or to fund production and promotion of any new product line.
· Other risk factors are stated in Item 1A of Company’s 2024 Annual Report.
| 20 |
It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks. There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial, or which are unknown as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q.
Risk Factors affecting Efforts to Develop or Acquire a New Business Line
The challenge facing the Company is to acquire a new business line, or to establish a new profitable product line, whether the licensing of the Connected Chef or another product line, before the cost of marketing and penetrating a new product market company impose unsustainable financial burdens and losses on the Company. There are no assurances that the new management members will result in the development of a new business line for the Company or will enhance the ability or capabilities of the Company’s management to develop or acquire a new business line for the Company. The funding under the New Note and the financial support of essential corporate overhead expenses of the Company under the MTA, if provided in accordance with the MTA, will allow the Company to continue efforts to develop a new business line in 2025. Funding from Coppermine under the New Note and MTA is the sole source of working capital funding for the Company as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q. Additional funding from Coppermine is uncertain and there is no assurances of any additional funding from Coppermine or any other funding sources.
No assurances can be given that any new management members or funding by Coppermine will in fact result in a new business line for the Company or cover all future operating expenses of the Company for fourth fiscal quarter of 2025 or into 2026. The financial commitment under the New Note extends only through the third fiscal quarter of 2025 and, if Coppermine does not provide additional funding after the third fiscal quarter of 2025, or the Company does not develop revenue generating operations producing sufficient working capital prior to the end of the third fiscal quarter of 2025, then the Company will need to obtain a new source of working capital funding for operating expenses after the third fiscal quarter of 2025 in order to sustain operations and efforts to develop a new business line, unless the Connected Chef licensing arrangement or software development for Coppermine generates sufficient working capital in the second half of fiscal 2025. The Company does not have an alternative source of working capital funding to funding by Coppermine as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q and is uncertain about whether it can obtain any alternative funding.
Even if the Company locates a new business or business line to develop or acquire, the Company may lack the funding necessary to consummate the development or acquisition of a new business line or to sustain that business line. Further, the low market price and liquidity of the Company’s Common Stock, the Company’s status as a ‘penny stock company’ under SEC rules, the status of the Company as a company without operations producing sustain, sufficient or any revenues to fund overhead as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, and the costs of and regulatory requirements for consummating an acquisition with another company or for a new business and the limited working capital funding available to the Company are factors adversely affecting the Company’s ability to develop or acquire a new business line. The Company requires adequate, affordable and timely funding to acquire and operate a new business line or business with revenue-generating operations and such funding may not be available to the Company.
The Company lacks sufficient operating history for its licensing arrangement for the Connected Chef to determine or predict the impact of U.S. Government’s 2025 policies and actions in respect of tariffs.Under the licensing arrangement, both the licensor and proposed OEM are located outside of the U.S.
As an ongoing strategic plan, the Company intends to develop or acquire a new business line that is not involved in the production of consumer products that are discretionary purchases for consumers, which was the Company’s prior business line. The shift in focus is due to the low profit margins typically provided by those consumer products; the funding needed for developing, producing, warehousing and marketing those consumer products; the Company’s lack of an effective e-commerce operation and reliance on bulk orders by a limited number of retailers for those consumer products; and vulnerability of those consumer products to changing consumer preferences and retailers’ buying preferences.
General Risk Factors for Investment in Company’s Common Stock.
The Company is a “penny stock” company under Commission rules and the public stock market price for our common stock is impacted by the lack of significant institutional investor and any primary market maker support. Investment in our common stock is highly risky and should only be considered by investors who can afford to lose their investment and do not require on demand liquidity. Potential investors should carefully consider risk factors in our SEC filings. The Company’s common stock lacks the primary market maker and institutional investor support to protect the public market from being unpredictable and volatile. Investors may not have liquidity or desired liquidity in our common stock as an investment. With the lack of any revenues and revenue generating operations, and doubt as a going concern, any investment in the Company’s common stock is highly risky.
| 21 |
The above risk factors are not exhaustive and new risks may emerge from time to time. Such forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs, assumptions, expectations, estimates and projections regarding our present and future business strategies and the environment in which we expect to operate in the future. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change of events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement was based, except as required by law.
Overview of Our Business
Capstone Companies, Inc. (“Company” or “CAPC”) is organized under the laws of the State of Florida. The Company has been a designer, manufacturer and marketer of consumer inspired products that simplify daily living through technology, including the Connected Chef. Since 2024, the Company has adopted a new strategic focus to develop a HFS Business or a business related to HFS Business (defined below in Health, Fitness and Social Activities Business). Outside of the licensing of the Connected Chef, the Company is not engaged in the consumer product business as of the date of filing of this Form 10-Q. Over the past decade, the Company’s various product lines have been distributed globally including consumer markets in Australia, Japan, Korea, North America, South America, and the United Kingdom. The primary operating subsidiary was Capstone Industries, Inc. (“CAPI”), a Florida corporation located at the principal executive offices of the Company. Capstone International Hong Kong, Ltd., or “CIHK”, was established to expand the Company’s product development, engineering, and factory resource capabilities. With the 2021 shift of manufacturing to Thailand from China, the CIHK operation was dormant as of the first fiscal quarter of 2025, the Company’s business operations are conducted by the Company and not CAPI.
LED Lighting Product Line. Historically, LED lighting products were the Company’s core consumer product business. The Capstone Lighting and Hoover Home LED brands, combined, sold millions of LED lighting products, but by 2023 the LED lighting products had matured and ceased to garner sufficient orders to maintain production. The impact of tariffs also adversely impacted the commercial viability of the LED lighting products. The Company switched its business focus to its Connected Surface products as a replacement product line. The first Connected Surface product was the Smart Mirror, but the Company’s Smart Mirror product line did not achieve sustainable sales to allow the continued production and promotion of the Smart Mirror products beyond fiscal year 2023. As a replacement for the Smart Mirror product line, the Company pursued commercialization of the Connected Chef, as a product under the Connected Surfaces initiative, which initiative sought to develop Internet-connected, “smart” consumer products. As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Connected Chef licensing arrangement described in the following paragraph has been the only commercialization of the Connected Chef.
Connected Chef Product Line. During 2023, the Company developed the Connected Chef (“Connected Chef”), a purpose-built kitchen tablet with an accessory platform to accommodate food prep accessories such as a cutting board. The Connected Chef has Google mobile service allowing for pre-installation of specific Google applications including Playstore, voice assistant, and YouTube. The ability of the Company to promote any new, related “connected” consumer products was dependent on securing adequate, affordable and timely funding from lenders and investors, which the Company was unsuccessful in obtaining over the last few years. On March 21, 2025, the Company executed a License Agreement with a company (“Licensee”) based in the United Kingdom. The Licensee received a limited, exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license to promote, market, sell, distribute, produce and manufacture Connected Chef. Under the License, the Company would receive a license fee of $15 for each Connected Chef sold and received by a buyer. Promotion, marketing and sale of the Connected Chef is subject to finalizing production arrangements with the contract manufacturer of the Connected Chef. The term of the License is 5 years plus one (1) year, post-termination extension to permit sell off of any inventory. As of the date of this Form 10-Q filing, there have been no sales of the Connected Chef and no license revenue generated for the
Health, Fitness and Social Activities Business. During 2024, the Company commenced its business development of a business line or software development project focused on year-round health, fitness and social activities (this business line being referred to as “HFS” or “HFS business”). Due to the popularity of sports like pickle ball and flag football, health, fitness and social activities at dedicated facilities are being developed nationwide. Pickle ball has been the fastest growing sport in America since 2021 and its popularity is based in large part in that it can be played by all fitness active demographics groups (e.g. children, adults and elders (since it does not require the skills and athleticism of tennis or other physically demanding sports)) and can be played as a recreational or competitive amateur/collegiate and professional sport. Professional pickle ball is increasingly popular sports entertainment. A typical HFS facility offers sports like indoor and outdoor pickle ball, padel and often another recreational sport or sports (e.g. martial arts, swimming, basketball, racquetball, tennis) with a food-drink-entertainment area. Some HFS facilities add field sports like soccer, lacrosse, and football (traditional and flag) in order to host tournaments, local school competitions, or recreational league play. The HFS facilities typically seek individual, family and group memberships charging periodic fees as well as additional fees for special offerings or events. Special events consist of children summer camps, birthday parties, corporate employee outings, or corporate sponsor events promoting their specific products (e.g. drinks, cooler products, drink ware, sporting equipment, apparel) through branding which may be performed in house by the HFS facility.
| 22 |
As part of business development efforts for the proposed HFS business, on March 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Coppermine whereby the Company will produce a development plan (“Plan”) for an online customer registration and management application (“CRM Application”) for Coppermine’s owned, affiliated or managed HFS business facilities in the State of Maryland (“Facilities”). These Facilities currently lack an integrated, single customer registration and management application. On May 13, 2025, the Company and Coppermine signed an agreement whereby Capstone will make an assessment and, based on that assessment, produce a written plan and proposal (“Proposal”) for the development, testing and installation of an online customer management and registration application (“Application”) for Coppermine’s year-round social, athletic, and fitness programs and events conducted at twenty (20) facilities in the State of Maryland (“Sites”). This Agreement covers only the assessment and production of the Proposal. If the Proposal is accepted by Coppermine, then the two companies would seek to negotiate a written agreement for the actual development, testing, installation and support of the Application. Coppermine will pay a flat Twenty-Four Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($24,000) for the assessment and production of the Proposal. If the Company develops the Application, then the Company would explore possible commercialization of the Application through licensing of the Application to other providers of social, athletic, and fitness programs and events in the United States, subject to the terms and conditions of any written agreement for the actual development, testing, installation and support of the Application for Coppermine. As of the date of this Form 10-Q filing, there is no written agreement for the development, testing and support of the application.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company reported a $143,268 decrease in net revenue from $143,268 in 2024 to $0 in 2025. The decrease in revenue is due to a liquidation sale of the Smart Mirrors for $80,000 during the second quarter of 2024 while the Company does not currently have an operating product line. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $187,612 as compared to $386,270 in 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 the Company used cash in operating activities of approximately $156,600 in 2025 and $109,800 in 2024. The increase in net cash used in operations primarily relates to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses as a result of the New Note working capital funding received in the fourth quarter of 2024 with installments received through June 30, 2025.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company has negative working capital of $325,205 and an accumulated deficit of $11,947,212. The Company’s cash balance increased by approximately $26,000 from $16,000 as of December 31, 2024 to $42,000 as of June 30, 2025. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is actively seeking alternative sources of liquidity, including but not limited to accessing the capital markets, strategic partnerships, or other alternative financing measures, but has been unable to secure unrelated, long-term funding or secure other sources of liquidity. As stated, Company’s low market price for its common stock and poor financial condition and performance hinder these efforts.
Besides the license of the Connected Chef kitchen appliance product, the Company is seeking to establish revenue generating operations in the HFS business by internal development of HFS operations or acquiring or being acquired by an existing, operating HFS company. Management is closely monitoring its operations, liquidity, and capital resources and is actively working to minimize the current and future impact of this unprecedented situation.
The Company reviews alternatives to its current business approach, including, without limitation, sale of the public company or merger of the Company with a private operating company and other common strategic alternatives to a company facing business and financial challenges and uncertainties such as ours. Management is closely monitoring its operations, liquidity, and capital resources and is actively working to minimize the current and future impact of this unprecedented situation.

Our Current Strategy
The strategic focus of the Company’s business operations in 2025 are the pursuit of the HFS Business and related apparel and logo branding business of the HFS industry, development of a customer registration and management application (“CRM Application”) for the HFS industry, and the third-party licensing of the Connected Chef. The long-term business strategy of the Company is focused on the HFS Business (including the apparel and logo branding business) and development of the CRM application and potential licensing to other HFS businesses, with the third-party licensing of the Connected Chef as a secondary business. The Company has expanded the scope of its HFS business strategy in the first half of 2025 due to perceived opportunities in that segment of the HFS industry. The implementation of the long-term business strategy will depend on having adequate working capital until revenue flow from operations replaces third party funding as the principal means of funding overhead. We have third party funding for basic operational overhead through the third fiscal quarter of 2025. We may be unable to achieve sufficient working capital when and, in the amounts, required to meet operational overhead beyond three fiscal quarters of 2025.
In terms of any pursuit of the apparel and logo branding business of the HFS industry, the Company is seeking to penetrate an industry that is perceived by the Company as rapidly expanding nationwide with many existing and new companies that have established operations and brand recognition. The HFS industry also has emerging regional or potentially national HFS chains and franchises. The Company may be unable to establish a competitive, sustainable apparel and logo branding business in the face of a rapidly growing industry with competitors who have established operations, greater funding than the Company and established brand recognition. The Company needs to raise sufficient working capital to acquire an existing HFS operation or establish an HFS operation that has offerings that appeal to a broad demographic range of customers. The Company believes that a competitive edge in HFS industry is offerings that appeal to a broad demographic group (children, families and adults) as opposed to offerings that are primarily aimed at appealing to adults seeking pickle ball courts with a sport bar or social activities environment.
With a third-party licensing consumer product, the Connected Chef, the Company competes in competitive consumer market channels that can be affected by volatility from a number of general business and economic factors such as, consumer confidence and preferences, employment levels, new technologies, credit availability, costs and barriers of producing products from foreign original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and commodity costs. Demand for the consumer products like the Connected Chef is highly dependent on economic drivers such as consumer spending and discretionary income. Technological changes can also undermine the appeal of devices like the Connected Chef. Consumers can opt to use a smart cell phone, tablet or laptop for Internet access for recipes and kitchen arts instead of using a dedicated device like the Connected Chef. Further, Amazon.com offers the Echo Show 21-inch kitchen hub with built-in Fire TV and Alexa functions. While the Echo Show is not focused on recipes and kitchen arts like the Connected Chef, being more a general smart TV with Internet connection for the kitchen, it is still potentially competitive to the Connected Chef. The purported market appeal of the Connected Chef is that it’s tailored to kitchen use for recipes and kitchen arts and designed to withstand the conditions of a kitchen, which is not the case for smart cell phones, tablets and laptops. The Connected Chef is counting on consumers preferring a dedicated kitchen device rather than using and risking damage to devices primarily designed and used for other functions and uses.
As is true for any consumer product company, the Company faces competition from numerous competitors in the consumer product industry, foreign and domestic, and some of those competitors have substantially greater market share, brand recognition, distribution and financial and technical resources than the Company. The Company’s strategy has been to develop well designed and well-made products that appeal to a niche market. The Company also relies on the production and engineering resources and technical expertise of its contract manufacturers to compensate for a lack of those resources internally. The lack of working capital hinders the ability of the Company to leverage the development, design and production capabilities of OEMs.
Due to working capital constraints, the Company’s focus for the Connected Chef is licensing of the promotion, marketing, production and sales/distribution to third parties. A typical arrangement would be a distributor or product company licensing the right to promote, market, distribute and sell the Connected Chef, which would be ordered from a Company’s authorized contract manufacturer. The Company would be merely the licensor and would not be required to fund or handle the promotion, marketing, production, distribution and sale of the product. The Company is exploring such an arrangement with a limited number of prospective distributors.

Sales and Marketing of Consumer Product Line
As a consumer product company in fiscal years prior to 2025, we used direct sales by our former Chief Executive Officer and sales agents to sell our consumer products, which effort included direct sales aimed to Big Box and home-goods chain retailers. There were no sales during the first quarter of 2025.
The Company has historically promoted its products to retailers and distributors at North American trade shows, such as the Consumer Electronics Show (“CES”) or the International Hardware Show but also relied on the retail sales channels to advertise its products directly to the end user consumers through various promotional activities. With the License, promotion of the Connected Chef will be conducted by the licensee.
In the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had no major customers.
When we promoted the Connected Surface Smart Mirrors, we utilized social media platforms and online advertising campaigns to further grow the Company’s online presence. In addition to Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and LinkedIn, The Company has launched a You Tube channel to host Smart Mirror videos and established a X account. Our Social Media marketing did not result in any significant sales of products. We were not able to effectively compete in e-commerce and Social Media marketing and sales. The Company has a Social Media presence on the following Social Media platforms; however, the Company is not emphasizing Social Media marketing in 2024 due lack of results and lack of funding to pursue active Social Media marketing. As of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company has not used Social Media marketing for its business development initiatives. The Company’s Social Media accounts are:

Information Technology
The efficient operation of our corporate activities is dependent on our information technology systems. We rely on those systems to manage our daily operations and maintain our financial and accounting records. When the Company was making and selling consumer products, and in the normal course of business, we received information regarding customers, associates, and vendors. Since we do not collect significant amounts of valuable personal data or sensitive business data from others, our internal computer systems are under a light to moderate level of risk from hackers or other individuals with malicious intent to gain unauthorized access to our computer systems. Cyberattacks are growing in number and sophistication and are an ongoing threat to business computer systems, which are used to operate the business on a day-to-day basis. Our computer systems could be vulnerable to security breaches, computer viruses, or other events. The failure of our information technology systems, our inability to successfully maintain our information or any compromise of the integrity or security of the data we generate from our systems or an event resulting in the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information or degradation of services provided by critical business systems, whether by us directly or our third-party service providers, could adversely affect our business operations, sales, reputation with current and potential customers, associates or vendors, results of operations, product development and make us unable or limit our ability to respond to customers’ demands.
We have incorporated into our data network various on and off-site data backup processes which should allow us to mitigate any data loss events, however our information technology systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from:
| ● | hurricanes, fire, flood and other natural disasters |
| ● | power outage |
| ● | internet, computer system, telecommunications or data network failure Hacking as well as malware, computer viruses, ransomware and similar malicious software code |
| ● | Cybersecurity. The Company did not experience any cybersecurity incidents for the six months ended June 30, 2025. |
Environmental Regulations
We believe that the Company is in compliance with environmental protection laws and regulations and that these laws and regulations will not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to those we disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2024 Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Because the Company is a smaller reporting company, this Form 10-Q Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) were effective as of June 30, 2025, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.
There are no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2025, the period covered by this report, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer attached as Exhibits 31 and 32 and to this Form 10-Q Report include information concerning our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.
| 32 |
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of internal control are met. Further, the design of internal control must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of the control must be considered relative to their costs. While our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of their effectiveness, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company, have been detected.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
The Company is not a party to any other pending or threatened legal proceedings and, to the best our knowledge, no such action by or against us has been threatened. From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur in such routine lawsuits, we believe that the final disposition of such routine lawsuits will not have material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or status as a going concern.
Other Legal Matters. To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors, officers, or owners of record of more than five percent (5%) of the securities of the Company, or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us in reference to pending litigation.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
You should carefully consider the “Risk Factors” disclosed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2024 Annual Report (as amended or revised by the Risk Factors set forth in this Form 10-Q reflecting the worsening financial condition of the Company in 2025). You should be aware that these risk factors and other information may not describe every risk facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
The Company has insufficient revenues to support its basic operating overhead and relies on funding from Coppermine under an amended promissory note to meet basic operating and overhead for the first three fiscal quarters of 2025. The Company may be unable to sustain operations through 2025 without continued financial support from the third-party funding sources, either debt or equity. In 2024, the Company received financial support from a senior officer and director, but the Company does not believe (based on discussions with the director and senior officer) that any financial support from personal funds by the senior officer or director will be forthcoming in any amount or in any significant amount. There can be no assurance that the Company can obtain sufficient funding from current funding sources or any new funding sources to sustain operations through 2025. The financial difficulties of the Company severely hamper efforts to launch, sustain or otherwise commercially exploit any new business lines and new products, or to attract potential acquisition candidates or candidates for other alternative transactions.
While the New Note and MTA provided funding of essential working capital needs, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern if Coppermine or another source does not provide funding past September 30, 2025. The ongoing concern may hinder our ability to obtain further financing or engage in alternative transactions. Our public auditor’s report for the 2024 Annual Report stated that the Company has incurred operating losses, has incurred negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit, and these and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Except for low-cost initiatives, such as the licensing of the Connected Chef, or such as work like the development of the Proposal for customer management and registration system for Coppermine, where there is a customer advance payment for the work, the current funding of the Company under the New Note is insufficient to fund the launch and promotion of a new business line or to acquire a new business line. The Company will have to raise additional funding from third parties to fund any launch and promotion of a new business line or to fund acquisition of a new business line requiring upfront or sustained working capital.
| 33 |
If funding sources are not available or are inadequate or unwilling to fund operations beyond funding under the New Note and MTA, or any new developed or acquired business line is not capable of generating sustainable revenues in the future, we will be required to reduce operating costs even further from existing reductions in operating costs, which could further jeopardize any future strategic initiatives and business plans. Furthermore, uncertainty concerning our ability to continue as a going concern may hinder our ability to obtain future financing. Continued operations and our ability to continue as a going concern are dependent on our ability to obtain additional funding in the near future, whether to supplement, or provide funding after using, the funding under the New Note and MTA, and thereafter, and there are no assurances that such funding will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. The lack of sufficient working capital also hinders or undermines Company’s efforts to develop, launch and sustain any new business line, or to acquire a new business or new business line.
As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company cannot assess or predict the impact of the Trump Administration’s tariffs and changes in the imposition of those tariffs on: (1) Company’s licensing of the Connected Chef product; (2) general economic conditions that may affect the ability of the Company to obtain necessary working capital funding or the ability of Coppermine to fulfil funding obligations under the New Note; or (3) the willingness of third parties to enter into and consummate any mergers-and-acquisitions transaction or any alternative transaction with the Company. Uncertainty about tariffs and resulting disruption of normal trade relationships is likely to create the sort of economic uncertainty and conditions that are likely to be adverse to the Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding, develop or acquire a new business or business line, or consummate any alternative transactions.
The Company is uncertain about whether it will succeed in its various business development efforts or obtaining necessary funding in a timely manner and on affordable terms, or at all.
There may be risks that are not presently material or known and not discussed in this Form 10-Q or other SEC filings of the Company. The Company’s status as a company without sustained revenue generating operations as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q and the doubt about the viability of the Company as a going concern creates substantial about the ability of the Company to develop or acquire a new business line or sustain operations beyond funding under the New Note and MTA. There are also risks within the economy, the industry, and the capital markets that could materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to develop or acquire a new business, including those associated with an economic recession, inflation, a global economic slowdown, political instability, war, government regulation (including tax regulation), employee attraction and retention and funding working capital needs for a new business line. These factors affect businesses generally, including the Company and, as a result, are not discussed in detail, but are applicable to the Company. As a “penny stock” without primary market maker support, and due to the decline in financial performance of the Company in 2023, 2024 and continuing into 2025, an investment in our common stock involves a very high degree of risk. If any of the following risks actually occurs or continues to impact our business, our business, financial condition or results of operations could worsen. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should read the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements on page 18 above for a discussion of what types of statements are forward-looking statements, as well as the significance of such statements in the context of this Form 10-Q Report.
