Prior Operations
Organizational history
Groove Botanicals, Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly known as Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc.), was originally incorporated in Colorado on April 25, 1991 under the name Snow Runner (USA), Inc. The Company was the general partner of Snow Runner (USA) Ltd.; a Colorado limited partnership to sell proprietary snow skates under the name “Sled Dogs” which was dissolved in August 1992. In late 1993, the Company relocated its operations to Minnesota and in January 1994 changed its name to Snow Runner, Inc. In November 1994 we changed our name to the Sled Dogs Company. In May 1999, we changed our state of domicile to Nevada and our name to XDOGS.COM, Inc. On July 31, 1998, the Company split their shares One (1) for Fifty-Four (54). On August 24, 2000, the Company split their shares One (1) for Five (5) and changed our name from XDOGS.COM to XDOGS, Inc. We changed our symbol from XDGS to XDGI. On June 22, 2005, the Company changed our name from XDOGS, Inc. to Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc. We changed our symbol from XDGI to AOGS. On July 22, 2005, the Board of Directors and a majority of the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change the Company’s name to Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., and to increase the authorized number of shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 1,000,000,000 shares par value of $0.001. On May 15, 2007, the Company split its shares One (1) for Twenty (20). We changed our symbol from AOGS to AOGN. On June 4, 2012, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to a reverse split of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (“Shares”) such that each holder of Shares as of the record date of June 4, 2012 shall receive one (1) post-split Share on the effective date of June 4, 2012 for each three hundred (300) Shares owned. The reverse split was effective on July 23, 2012. On September 28, 2012, we held a special meeting of Avalon’s shareholders and approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation such that the Company would be authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock. We filed an amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State on April 10, 2013, to increase our authorized shares to 200,000,000. On July 23, 2012, the Company split their shares One (1) for Three Hundred (300). On May 14, 2018, the Company changed its name from Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc., to Groove Botanicals, Inc. We changed our symbol from AOGN to GRVE. On August 2, 2021, we filed a Form 15-12B to suspend our duty to file reports under sections 13 and 15(d) of the securities exchange act of 1934. Since inception we have operated unsuccessfully, in various different industries.

Present Operations
The Company intends to change our name from Groove Botanicals, Inc., to Nordmark Technologies, Inc., to better describe our corporate focus.
The Company is an early-stage company. We intend to identify and evaluate early-stage intellectual property and applied technologies that may originate from, or be developed within, the research ecosystems of Norwegian universities, university hospitals, applied research institutions, and related technology-transfer or innovation organizations, and to assess whether selected technologies may be suitable for licensing, further development, or commercialization in North America through licensing, strategic relationships, commercial partnerships, customer arrangements, or other commercial structures, if available.
We have selected an initial geographic focus on Norway as we believe a concentrated review of a defined research ecosystem may allow us to evaluate opportunities more efficiently. We believe certain Norwegian institutions are active in selected applied-technology sectors that may be relevant to North American markets, which may include energy and offshore technology, maritime and ocean industries, aquaculture, carbon capture, health sciences, medical technology, and other applied industrial and digital technologies. By way of illustration and not limitation, the types of institutions whose research we may consider include the University of Oslo, Oslo University Hospital and its associated technology-transfer organization, SINTEF, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and the University of Bergen, among others.
We are in an early stage of development, we have not entered into any licensing agreements or formal arrangements with any of these institutions or any other Norwegian research organization or any university, research institution, or technology transfer organization to date. Nor have we identified or have any specific technology or intellectual property rights under contract, and we do not have proprietary or exclusive access to any technology pipeline. There can be no assurance that suitable technologies will be identified, licensed, developed, or successfully commercialized.
As the Company continues its business development and asset acquisitions, the Company anticipates our capital needs to be between $500,000 and $5,000,000 (varying based on growth strategies).
Principal Products
We do not currently have any products, technologies, or intellectual property rights. Our current activities are focused on identifying and evaluating potential licensing, development, or commercialization opportunities involving early-stage technologies and applied intellectual property that originate from universities and research institutions in Norway.
Marketing, Sales and Customer Service
We currently are not undertaking any marketing or sales activities.
Competition
The market for identifying, licensing, developing, and commercializing early-stage technologies and intellectual property is highly competitive. We may compete with established companies, universities, research institutions, venture funds, technology-transfer organizations, strategic investors, and other commercialization platforms that may have greater capital, technical expertise, institutional relationships, and operating resources than we do.

Intellectual Property
The Company does not currently own, license, or control any early-stage technologies or intellectual property rights originating from Norwegian universities, university hospitals, applied research institutions, or related innovation organizations. There can be no assurance that we will identify suitable technologies, obtain intellectual property rights
on acceptable terms, or successfully protect, develop, or commercialize any intellectual property.
Employees
We have one full time employee, our President, Kent Rodriguez and a part time administrative assistant. The Board retains consultants and advisors on as needed basis. They are compensated with cash and also with the issuance of the Company’s common stock.
Research and Development
We did not have any research and development costs during fiscal 2026 and 2025.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity
We recognize the importance of developing, implementing, and maintaining robust cybersecurity measures to protect our information systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our data. Presently our information systems are limited to databases maintained by third parties. As a result, we have limited policies and procedures to assess, identify, and manage material risk from cybersecurity threats. We assess risks from cybersecurity threats against our third-party information systems that may result in adverse effects on our information systems or any information residing therein. We conduct periodic and ad-hoc assessments to identify cybersecurity threats. Presently we do not believe there are any material threats to our systems.
Following these risk assessments, if needed, we evaluate whether and/or how to re-design, implement, and maintain reasonable safeguards to mitigate identified risks and reasonably address any identified gaps in existing safeguards. We do not yet have an IT manager given our limited exposure to risks, and therefore the review of our limited systems is undertaken by our President to manage the risk assessment and mitigation process. When applicable to our corporate structure and when we believe exposure to risks within our systems exceeds the current limited levels of exposure, we will monitor and test our safeguards and train our employees on the implementation of such safeguards, in collaboration with human resources, IT, and

c) Dividends
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Holders of Series A Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series A Preferred equal (on an as converted to common stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on our common stock.
Series A Preferred Stock holds designations of cash dividends at the rate of 8% of the amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock per annum in the form of “Preferred Dividends”, voting rights on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, liquidation preferences, and conversion rights in which each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall, upon conversion, represent 0.51% of the then “Fully-Diluted Shares Outstanding” of the Company. On January 12, 2018, our Board of Directors agreed to amend Designation of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock be amended by changing the ratio for conversion, in Article IV, subparagraph (a), from 0.4% to 0.51% so that upon conversion the number of shares of common stock to be exchanged shall equal 51% of then issued and outstanding common stock. In addition, on January 12, 2018, the Company and the Series A Holder agreed to forgive all accrued interest to date on the Series A, and to pause any accruals until April 1, 2023. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock carries liquidating preference, over all other classes of stock, equal to the amount paid for the stock plus any unpaid dividends. Currently the value of the liquidation preference is $500,000, the amount of debt that the related party converted into the preferred stock. If this Preferred Stock were to be redeemed by the holder, it would result in an aggregate of the $500,000 liquidation preference, on a per share basis, this would equal $5,000 per share. The Company and Series A Preferred Holder agreed to forgive all accrued interest and arrearages in preferred share dividends of Series A Preferred Stock through March 31, 2023. Dividends began to accrue on the Series A Preferred Stock as of April 1, 2023.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, the holder of the Series A preferred shares accrued $40,000 in preferred dividends from the Series A preferred shares. A total of $120,000 and $80,000 in dividends was outstanding at March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. Mr. Kent Rodriguez, the Company’s CEO, is the sole holder of the Company’s Series A Preferred shares.
Series B Preferred Stock holds designations of being ranked junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, cash dividends at the rate of 9% of the amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock per annum in the form of “Preferred Dividends”, a dividend received deduction for federal income tax purposes, liquidation preferences ranked junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock by the Company at 105% of the Stated Value, plus accrued and unpaid Dividends, if prior to the two year anniversary of the Issuance Date, or at 100% of the State Value, plus accrued and unpaid Dividends, if on or after the two year anniversary of the Issuance Date, no voting rights, and right to notice of certain corporate action. All accrued dividends on the Series B have been settled through March 31, 2023, and none currently remains outstanding. Dividends began to accrue on the Series B Preferred Stock as of April 1, 2023.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, the holders of the Series B preferred shares accrued $178,470, in preferred dividends from the Series B preferred shares. A total of $535,410 and $356,940 in Preferred B dividends was outstanding at March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively, including dividends accrued for the benefit of Mr. Kent Rodriguez, CEO, of $33,195 for each respective year ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains predictions, estimates and other forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors including the risks set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our registration statement on Form 10-12G/A, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 6, 2023, that 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.
Forward-looking statements represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this Report. You should read this Report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. We undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they are made, except as required by federal securities and any other applicable law.

The Company relies primarily on its current sole officer and director, Kent Rodriguez, to manage its day-to-day business and has outsourced professional services to third parties in an effort to maintain lower operational costs.
Mr. Rodriguez, as the holder of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, holds 51% of the voting rights of the Company. He will be able to influence the outcome of all corporate actions requiring the approval of our stockholders.

Total operating expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, were $139,917 compared to total operating expenses of $130,834 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. The increase in operating expenses during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, is mainly due to an increase in consulting expenses from $3,000 (March 31, 2025) to $8,000 (March 31, 2026). Consulting expenses recorded in the year ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were the result of consulting fees charged by an independent third party for the preparation of our regulatory filings. The Company recorded a slight increase in general and administrative expenses from $70,087 in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, to $73,774 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. This increase is related mainly to a reclassification of expenses in the amount of $3,000 over the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. Rent remained relatively constant for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, with a slight decrease of $1,035 in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, due to the cancellation of previously rented storage space during the year ended March 31, 2025. Professional fees remained relative constant at $43,743 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 and $42,312 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 financing activities consisted solely of related party advances in the amount of $95,320 offset by funds distributed to a related party to pay advances.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 financing activities consisted solely of related party advances in the amount of $107,776.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We are in need of additional cash resources to maintain our operations. As of March 31, 2026, we had cash of $1,502 and prepaid expenses of $2,930. We are in the early stage of development and have experienced net losses to date and have not generated revenue from operations, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There are a number of conditions that we must satisfy before we will be able to identify, evaluate, license, develop, or commercialize any technologies or intellectual property, including sourcing suitable opportunities, negotiating acceptable terms, obtaining any required financing, and establishing appropriate strategic or commercial relationships. We have not yet identified any specific technology or intellectual property rights under contract, and we have not established any market, customer orders, licensing revenue, or commercial sales capabilities with respect to any such technologies or intellectual property. We do not currently have sufficient resources to accomplish any of these conditions necessary for us to generate revenue and expect to incur increasing operating expenses. We will require substantial additional funds for operations, the service of debt and to fund our business objectives. There can be no assurance that financing, whether debt or equity, will always be available to us in the amount required at any particular time or for any particular period or, if available, that it can be obtained on terms favorable to us. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of equity securities, such as through the issuance and exercise of warrants, then existing stockholders will experience dilution of their ownership interest. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other equity instruments, we may be subject to certain limitations in our operations, and issuance of such securities may have rights senior to those of the then existing stockholders. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person or entity to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.
Going Concern
The accompanying 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. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception and has raised limited capital. The Company had a net loss of $139,917 and $130,834 before dividends payable on preferred stock for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company’s accumulated deficit was $35,554,968 and $35,196,581 as of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company is taking certain steps to provide the necessary capital to continue its operations. These steps include but are not limited to 1) focusing on our new business model and 2) raising equity or debt financing. Our auditors express substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of their evaluation form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in the Notes to our Financial Statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Specifically, such estimates were made by the Company for the valuation of derivative liability, stock compensation and beneficial conversion feature expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.
Disclosure in response to this Item is not required for a smaller reporting company.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
The financial statements required by this Item 8 are included in this Annual Report beginning on page F-1.
Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
On May 13, 2026, Madhava Rao, Chartered Accountant (PCAOB ID 06662) (“Madhava Rao”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of Groove Botanicals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), effective immediately. Madhava Rao did not provide a reason for his resignation. On the same date, the Company’s Board of Directors, which also serves as the Company’s audit committee, accepted Madhava Rao’s resignation. The Company has authorized Madhava Rao to respond fully to the inquiries of GSKCA & Associates (“GSKCA”), the successor auditors.
Madhava Rao’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that each such report contained an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through May 13, 2026: (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Madhava Rao on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Madhava Rao, would have caused reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with his reports on the Company’s financial statements; and (ii) there were no “reportable events” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
| 12 |
| Table of Contents |
On May 13, 2026, concurrently with its acceptance of Madhava Rao’s resignation, the Board of Directors of the Company (acting in its capacity as the Company’s audit committee) approved the engagement of GSKCA & Associates (“GSKCA”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through May 13, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone acting on behalf of the Company had consulted GSKCA regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, nor did GSKCA provide a written report or oral advice to the Company that GSKCA concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.
As of March 31, 2026, we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of March 31, 2026.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer [and principal financial officer], we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of March 31, 2026, of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under this framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2026 due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.
Our internal controls are not effective for the following reasons: (i) there is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives as management is comprised of only one person, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer and, (ii) the Company does not have an audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.
In order to mitigate the foregoing material weaknesses, we have engaged an outside accounting consultant with significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.
| 13 |
| Table of Contents |
We would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will continue to reassess this matter to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible. In addition, we would need to expand our board to include independent members.
Going forward, we intend to evaluate our processes and procedures and, where practicable and resources permit, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are not “large, accelerated filers” nor “accelerated filers” under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
None.
Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections.

PART III.
Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.
The following table sets forth the name, age and position of each of our executive officers and directors as of the date of this report:
Name |
| Age |
| Position |
Kent Rodriguez |
| 69 |
| Director, President, Treasurer, Secretary |
Background of Executive Officers and Directors
Our directors are elected for a term of one year and serve until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified. Each executive officer serves at the pleasure of the Board.
Kent Rodriguez
Mr. Rodriguez joined the Company as Chief Executive Officer, Secretary, and Principal Financial Officer in May 2009. Since 1995, he has been the Managing Partner of Weyer Capital Partners, a Minneapolis-based venture capital partnership. He has a B.A. degree in Geology from Carleton College, and an Executive MBA from the Harvard Business School. Mr. Rodriguez is the related party who has provided funds to the Company, which are owed back to him and can be found within the Balance Sheets and footnotes referenced throughout this filing as related party payables.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships among any of our executive officers or directors.
| 15 |
| Table of Contents |
Board Composition
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors, which presently consists of one member. Our current director will continue to serve as a director until his resignation, removal or successor is duly elected.
Our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws permit our board of directors to establish the authorized number of directors from time to time by resolution. Each director serves until the expiration of the term for which such director was elected or appointed, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
As of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there are no legal proceedings, and during the past ten years there have been no legal proceedings that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of any of our directors, director nominees or executive officers.
Committees of Our Board of Directors
Our board of directors has not established any committees.
We are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors.
We do not currently have a “financial expert” within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The Company has no nominating or compensation committees at this time. The entire Board participates in the nomination and audit oversight processes and considers executive and director compensation. Given the size of the Company and its stage of development, the entire Board is involved in such decision-making processes. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
The Company has not as yet adopted a code of ethics applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 due to our small size and limited resources and because management’s attention has been focused on matters pertaining to raising capital and the operation of the business.
Risk and Compensation Policies
The Company does not have any risk and compensation policies.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
July 15, 2025
Audit Committee/Board of Director
Groove Botanicals, Inc.
310 Fourth Avenue South, Suite 7000
Minneapolis, MN 55415
Opinion on the financial statements
We audited the accompanying balance sheets of Groove Botanicals, Inc. (“the Company”) as of March 31, 2025 and 2024 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for years then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of the liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $35,196,581 for the year ended March 31, 2025. These factors as discussed in Note 3 of the financial statements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis of Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits. we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters arising from the current period of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosure that are material to the financial statements and (2) involve especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Related party transactions.
As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statement, the Company has borrowed from related parties an amount $608,833 as of the date of March 31, 2025. The procedure performed to address the matter included: obtaining confirmation from related party.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors,
Groove Botanicals Inc.
310 Fourth Avenue South
Suite 7000
Minneapolis MN, 55415
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Groove Botanicals, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2026, the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2026 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception and has raised limited capital. The Company had a net loss of $139,917 and $130,834 for the years ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. The Company’s accumulated deficit was $35,554,968 and $35,196,581 as of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. These Factors raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Basis for Opinion-
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GROOVE BOTANICALS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026, AND 2025
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
Current Operations
Groove Botanicals, Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly known as Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc.), was originally incorporated in Colorado on April 25, 1991, under the name Snow Runner (USA), Inc. The Company was the general partner of Snow Runner (USA) Ltd.; a Colorado limited partnership to sell proprietary snow skates under the name “Sled Dogs” which was dissolved in August 1992. In late 1993, the Company relocated its operations to Minnesota and in January 1994 changed our name to Snow Runner, Inc. In November 1994 we changed our name to the Sled Dogs Company. On May 25, 1999, we filed articles of merger with Xdogs.com Inc., changing our state of domicile to Nevada. On June 22, 2005, the Corporation changed our name from XDOGS.com, Inc. to Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc. On May 14, 2018, the Corporation changed our name from Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc., to Groove Botanicals, Inc. Until August 2, 2021, when we filed a 15-12B to suspend duty to file reports under sections 13 and 15(d) of the securities exchange act of 1934, we were a reporting company. Subsequently, on September 14, 2023, we filed a Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective 60 days later.
Since inception we have operated unsuccessfully, in various different industries. Currently, the Company intends to change our name from Groove Botanicals, Inc., to Nordmark Technologies, Inc., to better describe our corporate focus.
The Company is an early-stage company. We intend to identify and evaluate early-stage intellectual property and applied technologies that may originate from, or be developed within, the research ecosystems of Norwegian universities, university hospitals, applied research institutions, and related technology-transfer or innovation organizations, and to assess whether selected technologies may be suitable for licensing, further development, or commercialization in North America through licensing, strategic relationships, commercial partnerships, customer arrangements, or other commercial structures, if available.
We have selected an initial geographic focus on Norway as we believe a concentrated review of a defined research ecosystem may allow us to evaluate opportunities more efficiently. We believe certain Norwegian institutions are active in selected applied-technology sectors that may be relevant to North American markets, which may include energy and offshore technology, maritime and ocean industries, aquaculture, carbon capture, health sciences, medical technology, and other applied industrial and digital technologies. By way of illustration and not limitation, the types of institutions whose research we may consider include the University of Oslo, Oslo University Hospital and its associated technology-transfer organization, SINTEF, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and the University of Bergen, among others.
We have not entered into any licensing agreements or formal arrangements with any of these institutions or any other Norwegian research organization, have not identified any specific technology or intellectual property rights under contract, and do not have proprietary or exclusive access to any technology pipeline.
We are in an early stage of development, we have not entered into any licensing agreements or formal arrangements with any university, research institution, or technology transfer organization to date, and there can be no assurance that suitable technologies will be identified, licensed, developed, or successfully commercialized.
On July 29, 2024, Mr. Douglas Barton resigned as a director of the Company.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for financial information. Accordingly, they include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, were derived from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at that date.
Basis of Consolidation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Groove Botanicals, Inc., and its two 100% controlled non-operating subsidiaries formed in Wyoming, Biotrex, Inc., and Maxidyne, Inc. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026, AND 2025
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Specifically, such estimates were made by the Company for the valuation of derivative liability, stock compensation and beneficial conversion feature expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss, total stockholders’ equity, or accumulated deficit.
Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, related party payables, dividends payable and other debt. The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate fair value. FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1—Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs; Level 2—Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, related party payables, accrued dividends and debt approximate fair value based on either their short-term nature or on terms currently available to the Company in financial markets.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As the Company has continued to report operating losses for the periods covered by this report, the impact of potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive and therefore is not presented.
Income Taxes
The Company is taxed as a C corporation for income tax purposes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026, AND 2025
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Taxes (Cont’d)
The Company records interest, net of any applicable related income tax benefit, on potential income tax contingencies as a component of income tax expense. The Company records tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return based upon the amount that is more likely than not to be realized or paid, including in connection with the resolution of any related appeals or other legal processes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes liabilities for certain unrecognized tax benefits based on the amounts that are more likely than not to be settled with the relevant taxing authority. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
Recent Accounting Standard Adopted:
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances the disclosures required for reportable segments in annual and interim financial statements, including additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ended March 31, 2025, retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption of this ASU had no impact on reportable segments identified and had no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09 – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is available. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year beginning April 1, 2025. The adoption of this ASU had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, – Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). This ASU requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the statement of operations as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will evaluate the full extent of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 but believes it will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying 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. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception and has raised limited capital. The Company had a net loss of $
