PART I
Item 1. Description of Business.
International Land Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”, “ILAL”, or “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013 (inception).
The Company is a residential land development company with target properties located in the Baja California, Northern region of Mexico and Southern California. The Company’s principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building lots, securing financing for the purchase of the lots, improving the properties infrastructure and amenities, and selling the plots to homebuyers, retirees, investors, and commercial developers.
On June 30, 2011, International Land Alliance, SA De CV (“ILA Mexico”) was formed as a Mexican corporation to acquire from Baja Residents Club, S.A., a related-party Mexican corporation, 497 acres south of San Felipe, Baja California, known as the Oasis Park project and also 20 acres in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Valle Divino project. On October 1, 2013, Roberto Jesus Valdez, Jason A. Sunstein and Elizabeth Roemer transferred their interest in Oasis Park and Valle Divino real estate projects to ILA Mexico in exchange for 7,500 shares of ILA Mexico. On October 1, 2013, we issued 75,000 shares of our common stock to each Roberto Jesus Valdez, and Jason Sunstein and 20,000 shares of our common stock to Elizabeth Roemer in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of ILA Mexico. As a result of this transaction, ILA Mexico became our wholly owned subsidiary.
On October 1, 2013, the Company entered into a promissory agreement with Grupo Jataya, S.A. DE C.V. (“Grupo”), a Mexican corporation controlled by our chairman of the board, Roberto Valdes, to convey into an irrevocable trust, with ILAL named as beneficiary, to acquire 10 acres of land in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Valle Divino, free of lien and encumbrances.
On March 5, 2019, the Company received its trading symbol “ILAL” from FINRA. On April 4, 2019, the Company was approved to have its common stock traded on the OTCQB. On April 12, 2019, the Company became eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) in the United States.
On March 18, 2019, the Company acquired real property located in Hemet, California, which included approximately 80 acres of land and two structures for $1.1 million. The property includes the main parcel of land with existing structures along with three additional parcels of land which are vacant lots to be used for the purpose of land development. The Company was generating lease income from this property up until October 1, 2021, at which point, the Company recognized revenue from the sale of 20 acres of land pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 606.
In October 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Valdeland, S.A. de C.V.(“Valdeland”), a Mexican corporation controlled by our chairman of the board, Roberto Valdes, to acquire 1 acre of land at the Bajamar Ocean Front Golf Resort in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Plaza Bajamar. The transfer of title for this project is subject to approval from the Mexican government in Baja California. Although management believes that the transfer of title to the land will be approved and transferred by the end of our second fiscal quarter of 2026, there is no assurance that such transfer of title will be approved in that time frame or at all.

In July 2020, the Company filed the Articles of Organization with the California Secretary of State for Emerald Grove Estates, LLC (“Emerald Estates”). Emerald Estates is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The purpose of Emerald Estates is agriculture and land development. On January 27, 2021, Jason Sunstein and ILAL granted the deed of the property in Sycamore Road, Hemet, California to Emerald Estates.
On May 3, 2021, the Company acquired a 25% interest in Rancho Costa Verde Development, LLC (“RCVD”). RCVD is a successful developer of a 1,100-acre, 1,200-lot master planned community in Baja California, located roughly eight (8) km north of ILA’s Oasis Park Resort. Such investment was accounted for under the equity method of investment under ASC 323 Investments - Equity method and Joint Ventures. On January 3, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 75% for a total contractual consideration of $13.5 million.
On December 16, 2025, the Company closed on the acquisition of 300 acres of land and structures located adjacent to the Company’s Rancho Costa Verde development for a total consideration of $1.65 million. This purchase is subdivided into 7 parcels and consists of approximately 300 residential homesites, 12 existing tiny homes, and 2 completed homes.
On June 19, 2025, we filed with the Wyoming Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 150,000,000 to 250,000,000.
On January 30, 2026, we filed with the Wyoming Secretary of State an Articles of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to effect the reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of our common stock at a ratio of 1-for-50. All share and per share numbers in this report have been adjusted to give effect to our reverse split at a ratio of 1-for-50 effected on February 4, 2026.
Industry Overview
Mexico’s real estate industry has experienced a wave of growth brought about by foreign investment with the creation of investment trusts in 1993 (“fideicomiso”) and significant changes in regulations, primarily NAFTA in 1994, along with competitive land prices and the significant expansion of new business centers and factories (“Maquiladoras”) across the country over the last 10 years.
Most recently, this continued growth was fueled by Mexico´s enormously strong domestic market, particularly the rising middle class. In 2018, the country’s middle class was estimated to account for almost half of the total households, at about 16 million. They are expected to continue growing, with about 3.8 million more households projected to move into the middle class by 2030. Moreover, most Mexicans who move generally prefer to buy rather than to rent. Around 82% of Mexicans want to buy a property, as opposed to 18% that prefer to rent, according to Lamudi’s recent Real Estate Market Report 2018.
In addition to a strong domestic market, demand has also been fueled by international buyers from California seeking affordable retirement alternatives. Redfin data show the median price of a California home, or the price at the midpoint of all sales, was $828,000 in October 2025, remaining essentially flat, with an insignificant decrease from $837,000 in October 2024.
Market Opportunity
For years, U.S. and Canadian retirees have flocked to Mexico as an alternative overseas retirement destination that was affordable, offered desirable weather and was close to their communities of origin in North America. These attributes have made Mexico the top overseas retirement destination for older Americans, resulting in a building boom that reached its peak during 2005 - 2006 and stretched from Playas de Tijuana-Rosarito and Los Cabos along the Baja California peninsula and from Puerto Peñasco, Sonora to Mazatlán, Sinaloa. In southern Mexico, the real estate focus has been on expanding the Cancún corridor to the Riviera Maya.
Mexico remains a viable retirement option for Americans aged 50 years and over, offering a reduced cost of living, lower health care expenses, and proximity to friends and family in the United States. In addition, over half of survey respondents observed that their motivation to purchase a home in Mexico was based on their desire to have a home on or near the coast that would otherwise be unattainable in the United States.
In addition to U.S. and Canadian citizens, Baja California has seen a noticeable increase in business from Japan and Europe. With the interest in Baja expected to continue along with Mexico’s overall economic growth, we will be well positioned to offer prospective homebuyers and investors a luxurious residence with breathtaking views for an affordable price.

Target Market
The Company’s projects will be marketed toward residents of the United States and Canada. Specifically, we will target the influx of Maquiladoras (manufacturing facilities run by a foreign company) moving to Mexico as well as the residents of California, Texas, Arizona and Washington for the purpose of appealing to their need for a second home or retirement property within driving distance from Southern California. The targeted market includes residents making over $50,000 or a combined household income of $150,000.
Our target home buyers are typically professionals who own an existing property. Many are married without children or married with several children. The target audience enjoys a vacation away from home and often seeks information regarding villas or condominiums as a second home or vacation destination. We plan to provide them with an affordable location for a vacation home in a community that surpasses all their expectations.
Growth Strategy
We believe that growth of homebuilders in Mexico has created opportunities for smaller companies with long-term experience and relationships in their local markets. We believe that we can utilize our many strengths to benefit our target market. These strengths include:
| ● | better knowledge of local demand; |
| ● | superior understanding of the entitlement and acquisition process; |
| ● | affordable high-quality homes and aggressive marketing; |
| ● | long term relationships with local regulatory authorities, landowners, designers, and contractors; and |
| ● | faster and less cumbersome financing processes. |
It is our plan to utilize these advantages to move more quickly and address the needs of those in our target market, especially retirees looking to purchase a home in Mexico.
Competition
The Mexican public real estate market is fragmented and highly competitive. We compete with numerous developers, builders, and others for the acquisition of property and with local, regional, and national developers, homebuilders, and others with respect to the sale of residential properties. We also compete with builders and developers to obtain financing on commercially reasonable terms.
The Company is also subject to competition from other entities engaged in the business of resort development, sales and operation, including vacation interval ownership, condominiums, hotels and motels. Some of the world’s most recognized lodging, hospitality and entertainment companies have begun to develop and sell resort properties in the Baja California area. Many of these entities possess significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than those of the Company. Management believes that recent regulatory developments in the electricity industry and overall growth in the Mexican economy will increase competition in the real estate investment industry.
Intellectual Property
We currently have no patents, copyrights, trademarks and/or service marks, nor do we have any plans to file applications for such rights.
Marketing Research
The Company is in the process of acquiring properties, as well as developing its marketing and sales strategy. The Company also developed an interactive website and help center to answer questions from potential home buyers.

Government Regulation
The housing and land development industries are subject to increasing environmental, building, zoning, and real estate sales regulations by various authorities. Such regulations affect home building by specifying, among other things, the type and quality of building materials that must be used, certain aspects of land use and building design. Some regulations affect development activities by directly affecting the viability and timing of projects.
We must obtain the approval of numerous governmental authorities that regulate such matters as land use and level of density, the installation of utility services, such as water and waste disposal, and the dedication of acreage for open space, parks, schools, and other community purposes. If these authorities determine that existing utility services will not adequately support proposed development, building moratoria may be imposed. As a result, we use substantial resources to evaluate the impact of government restrictions imposed upon new residential development. Furthermore, as local circumstances or applicable laws change, we may be required to obtain additional approvals or modifications of approvals previously obtained or we may be forced to stop work. These increasing regulations may result in a significant increase in resources between our initial acquisition of land and the commencement and the completion of developments. In addition, the extent to which we participate in land development activities subjects us to greater exposure to regulatory risks.
Additionally, the Mexican real estate industry is subject to substantially different regulation than the U.S. real estate industry. The Mexican constitution of 1917 prohibited foreign ownership of residential real property within approximately 31 miles (approximately 50 km) of any coastline and 62 miles (approximately 100 km) of its natural borders. All of Baja California is included in this “restricted zone.” In 1971 (further expanded in 1989 and 1993) provisions were made for a mechanism that would allow foreigners to own property in the “restricted zone.” Within the “restricted zone,” a foreigner can purchase the beneficial interest in real property through a bank trust or “fideicomiso.” Thus, virtually all property in Mexico is available for purchase by foreigners, keeping in mind that the fideicomiso, or bank trust, must be used when acquiring property within the restricted zone.
In this bank trust, the buyer of the property is designated as the “fideicomisario” or the beneficiary of the trust. While legal title is held by the bank, (specifically the trustee of the trust or the “fiduciario,”) the trustee must administer the property in accordance with the instructions of the buyer (the beneficiary of the trust). The property is not an asset of the bank and the trustee is obligated to follow every lawful instruction given by the beneficiary to perform legal actions, i.e. rent it, make improvements, sell it, etc.
As long as the foreign buyer of the property adheres to laws and ordinances of Mexico and agrees not to invoke the protection of the government of his country, he may exercise the same rights as a Mexican national with regard to the use of his property.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
An investment in our securities is highly speculative and subject to numerous and substantial risks. Readers are encouraged to review these risks carefully before making any investment decision.
In addition to the other information provided in this filing, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business before purchasing any of our common stock. All material risks are discussed in this section.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors will lose their entire investment.
Our 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. Our auditor’s report reflects that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to repay or refinance our obligations, to raise additional capital and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, stockholders will lose their investment. We will be required to seek additional capital to fund future growth and expansion. No assurance can be given that such financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on commercially favorable terms. Moreover, favorable financing may be dilutive to investors.
The Company has an accumulated deficit of $38.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and a net loss of $14.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. This deficit and loss may impact the future of the Company in many ways including, but not limited to, making it more difficult to borrow money, sell stock or to maintain a good trading price for our common stock.
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws limit the liability of, and provide indemnification for, our officers and directors.
Our Certificate of Incorporation generally limits our officers’ and directors’ personal liability to the Company and its stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer or director except for breach of the duty of loyalty or acts or omissions not made in good faith, or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, provide indemnification for our officers and directors to the fullest extent authorized by the Wyoming Business Corporation Act against all expense, liability, and loss, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement reasonably incurred or suffered by an officer or director in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”) to which the officer or director is made a party or is threatened to be made a party, or in which the officer or director is involved by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer or director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company whether the basis of the Proceeding is an alleged action in an official capacity as an officer or director, or in any other capacity while serving as an officer or director. Thus, the Company may be prevented from recovering damages for certain alleged errors or omissions by the officers and directors for liabilities incurred in connection with their good faith acts for the Company. Such an indemnification payment might deplete the Company’s assets. Stockholders who have questions regarding the fiduciary obligations of the officers and directors of the Company should consult with independent legal counsel. It is the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission that exculpation from and indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations there under, is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.
We will need additional capital, which we may be unable to obtain.
Our capital requirements in connection with our development activities of our residential property’s operations have been and will continue to be significant. We may require additional funding for more than one year in order to continue development. construction of houses, infrastructure and marketing activities associated with our properties. There can be no assurances that additional funding in the future or our current cash position will be sufficient to fund any future plans to accelerate our commercialization efforts or that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
| 8 |
We are dependent on the sale of our securities or debt to fund our operations and will remain so until we generate sufficient revenues to pay for our operating costs. Our officers and directors have made no written commitments with respect to providing a source of liquidity in the form of cash advances, loans and/or financial guarantees. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to successfully sell our equity or debt securities.
We have a potential conflict of interest with a company controlled by one of our officers and directors.
We have and will continue to enter into agreements with firms owned or controlled by our officers and directors. A conflict of interest will arise should a dispute occur with the respect of our rights and obligations pursuant to the agreements and those firms. Under Wyoming law, a conflict-of-interest transaction is not voidable if the transaction was fair at the time it was entered into or is approved in advance by the vote of the board of directors not having an interest in the transaction if the material facts of the transaction and the director’s interest are disclosed or known to the board prior to the vote. Each officer and director owe a fiduciary duty to the Company to present business opportunities to the Company. We do not believe, however, that the fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers or directors to other entities will materially affect our ability to identify and pursue business opportunities or to complete our initial business objectives.
Our relatively short period of operations history in the industry makes evaluating our business difficult.
We have a short period of time in terms of operational history in our industry. Accordingly, our operations are subject to the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including access to capital, successful implementation of our business plan and limited revenue from operations. We cannot assure you that our intended activities or plan of operation will be successful or result in revenue or profit to us and any failure to implement our business plan may have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company.
To be profitable, we must:
| ● | develop and identify new prospective purchasers of our real estate |
| ● | compete with larger, more established competitors in the real estate development industry; |
| ● | maintain and enhance our brand recognition; and |
| ● | adapt to meet changes in our markets and competitive developments. |
We may not be successful in accomplishing these objectives. Further, our lack of operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development, particularly companies in highly competitive industries. The historical information in this report may not be indicative of our future financial condition and future performance. For example, we expect that our future annual growth rate in revenues will be moderate and likely be less than the growth rates experienced in the early part of our history.
There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to complete development of its proposed properties and profitably sell any units.
The Company has acquired properties and thereafter, the Company intends to construct and develop proposed resort properties as well as other residential and commercial property. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete the expected development plans or undertake to develop other resorts or complete such development if undertaken. Risks associated with the Company’s development and construction activities may include the risks that: (i) acquisition and/or development opportunities may be abandoned; (ii) construction costs of a property may exceed original estimates, possibly making the resort uneconomical or unprofitable; and (iii) construction may not be completed on schedule, resulting in decreased revenues and increased carrying cost such as taxes and interest expense. In addition, the Company’s construction activities will typically be performed by third-party contractors, the timing, quality and completion of which the Company will be unable to control.
| 9 |
Investors will have no discretion in management’s real estate investment decisions.
Our management will have complete discretion in making investments on our behalf in a range of real estate, which may include all types of properties. Consequently, prospective investors will not be able to evaluate for themselves the merits of the specific properties that may be acquired in the future and may not like the properties acquired. You will not be entitled to a return of your investment if you do not approve the properties purchased. Our investment decisions are not made through reliance on sophisticated mathematical models or arbitrage programs. Instead, investors are relying on the judgment of our management alone to locate suitable properties that meet our investment criteria.
Our proposed ownership of real estate may result in losses if demand for property declines.
From our current real estate projects and any future real estate project acquired, we will be subject to risks incident to the ownership of real estate, including: changes in general economic or local conditions, such as a decrease in demand for residential, commercial and industrial space due to a decrease in population or employment or changes in technology or adverse downturns in the general economy; changes to preferences that reduce the attractiveness of our properties to end users; fluctuation in mortgage rates, building ownership or operating expenses; rises and falls in undeveloped land values; costs of infrastructure, construction or other development costs; changes in supply or demand of competing properties in an area; changes in interest rates, zoning and other governmental regulations and availability of permanent mortgage funds that may render the sale of a property difficult or unattractive; increases in the cost of adequate maintenance, insurance and other operating costs, including real estate taxes, associated with one or more properties, which may occur even when a property is not generating revenue; inflation; and changes in tax laws and rates. A negative change in any of these risks could reduce the demand for any properties we may acquire and a reduction in demand could result in a loss to us in the operation of or upon the sale of any such properties we may acquire.
Property improvement costs are difficult to estimate and if costs exceed our budget, we may lose money on the development and sale of a property.
Acquisition of any properties for improvement, repositioning and sale entails risks such as those contemplated by us that include the following, any of which could adversely affect our financial performance and the value of your investment: Our estimate of the costs of improving or repositioning an acquired property may prove to be too low, and, as a result, the property may fail to meet our estimates of the profitability of the property, either temporarily or for a longer time. Our pre-acquisition evaluation of each new investment may not detect certain requirements, limitations, defects or necessary improvements until after the property is acquired, which could significantly increase our total costs.
Our operating results may suffer because of potential development and construction delays and resultant increased costs and risks which could reduce our revenues or lead to the loss of your investment.
We may develop properties, including unimproved real properties, upon which we will construct improvements. We may be subject to uncertainties associated with re-zoning for development, environmental concerns of governmental entities and/or community groups, and our builders’ ability to build in conformity with plans, specifications, budgeted costs and timetables. A builder’s performance may also be affected or delayed by conditions beyond the builder’s control. Delays in completing construction could also give tenants the right to terminate preconstruction leases. We may incur additional risks when we make periodic progress payments or other advances to builders before they complete construction. These and other factors can result in increased costs of a project or loss of our investment.
| 10 |
Our real estate development strategies may not be successful which could reduce our revenues or lead to the loss of your investment.
We may in the future engage in development activities to the extent attractive development projects become available. To the extent that we engage in development activities, we will be subject to risks associated with those activities that could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and ability to pay distributions on, and the market price of, our common stock, including, but not limited to:
| ● | development projects in which we have invested may be abandoned and the related investment will be impaired; |
| ● | we may not be able to obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining, all necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other governmental permits and authorizations; |
| ● | we may not be able to obtain land on which to develop; |
| ● | we may not be able to obtain financing for development projects, or obtain financing on favorable terms; |
| ● | construction costs of a project may exceed the original estimates or construction may not be concluded on schedule, making the project less profitable than originally estimated or not profitable at all (including the possibility of contract default, the effects of local weather conditions, the possibility of local or national strikes and the possibility of shortages in materials, building supplies or energy and fuel for equipment); |
| ● | upon completion of construction, we may not be able to obtain, or obtain on advantageous terms, permanent financing for activities that we financed through construction loans; and |
| ● | we may not achieve sufficient occupancy levels and/or obtain sufficient rents to ensure the profitability of a completed project. |
Moreover, substantial development activities, regardless of their ultimate success, typically require a significant amount of management’s time and attention, diverting their attention from our other operations.
The real estate market is cyclical, and a downturn of the market could increase the risk of loss of your investment.
Investment in real estate involves a high degree of business and financial risk, which can result in substantial losses and accordingly should be considered speculative. The market for property in Mexico and the United States tends to be cyclical, with periods in which the prices of properties rise and fall. Prices have fallen in the past and have done so for a significant period of time. Any downturn in the real estate market in the U.S. or Mexico may have a negative effect on our operations and reduce any return generated upon the sale of our property.
Many real estate costs are fixed and must be paid even if the property is not generating revenue which could increase your risk of loss of your investment.
Our financial results depend primarily on being able to add value and then sell properties to others on favorable terms. Many costs associated with real estate investment, such as debt service, real estate taxes and maintenance costs, generally are not reduced even when a property is not fully improved or used. Thus, even a small increase in the time to which a real estate property can be sold can result in a significant increase in the carry costs of the property. New properties that we may acquire may not produce any significant revenue immediately, and the cash flow from existing operations may be insufficient to pay the operating expenses and debt service associated with that property until the property is sold.
Because there is no liquid market for our properties, we may be unable to sell a property when it planned to, which could increase your risk of loss of your investment.
Liquidity relates to our ability to sell a property in a timely manner at a price that reflects the fair value of that property. The illiquidity of properties may adversely affect our ability to dispose of such properties in a timely manner and at a fair price at times when we deem it necessary or advantageous. The timing and likelihood of liquidation events is uncertain and unpredictable and affected by general economic and property-specific conditions. There may not be a market, or the market may be very limited, for the real estate that we will try to sell, even though we will make appropriate efforts to cover the available market. Investments in real properties are generally not liquid. We may not be able to dispose of future properties within its anticipated time schedule and the sales of such properties may not be made at the prices projected by us.
We are subject to zoning and environmental controls that may restrict the use of our property.
Governmental zoning and land use regulations may exist or be promulgated that could have the effect of restricting or curtailing certain uses of our real estate. Such regulations could adversely affect the value of any of our properties affected by such regulations. In recent years real estate values have also sometimes been adversely affected by the presence of hazardous substances or toxic waste on, under or in the environs of the property. A substance (or the amount of a substance) may be considered safe at the time the property is purchased but later classified by law as hazardous. Owners of properties have been liable for substantial expenses to remedy chemical contamination of soil and groundwater at their properties even if the contamination predated their ownership. Although we intend to exercise reasonable efforts to assure that no properties are acquired that give rise to such liabilities, chemical contamination cannot always be detected through readily available means, and the possibility of such liability cannot be excluded.
| 11 |
Under various foreign, federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, we may be required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances released on or in properties we own or operate, and also may be required to pay other costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. This liability may be imposed without regard to whether we knew about the release of these types of substances or were responsible for their release. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate property’ contaminations at any of our properties may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease the properties or to borrow using the properties as collateral. The costs or liabilities could exceed the value of the affected real estate. We have not been notified by any governmental authority, however, of any non-compliance, liability or other claim in connection with any of our properties, and we are not aware of any other environmental condition with respect to any of our properties that management believes would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations taken as a whole.
Although we will attempt to determine the environmental condition of each property as part of our due diligence, we cannot be certain that this investigation will reveal all conditions that may impose an obligation on us to mitigate the environmental condition. If we were subject to environmental liability, which could be imposed based on our ownership of its property; such liability could adversely affect the value of your investment.
We may be subject to partially uninsured losses that may require substantial payments which could reduce the value of your investment.
We currently carry a $2,000,000 general liability policy for the Company. On Emerald Grove we have a comprehensive homeowner’s policy which also extends to the three (3) vacant parcels. Any ILA, vacant lot buyers or homebuyers will be encouraged to carry their own individual insurance policies. In addition, if losses occur, they may exceed insurance policy limits, and policies may contain exclusions with respect to various types of losses or other matters. Consequently, all or a portion of our properties may not be covered by disaster insurance and insurance may not cover all losses which could reduce the value of your investment.
We cannot control certain factors affecting the performance and value of a property, which may cause the value of that property and your investment to decline.
The economic performance and value of our real estate assets will be subject to the risks described below that are normally associated with changes in national, regional, and local political, economic and market conditions. These factors may adversely affect the ability of our customers to buy our real estate. Other local economic conditions that may affect the performance and value of the properties include the local economy of a given real estate project; competition for buyers, including competition based on attractiveness and location of the property; and the quality of amenities a project has to offer. In addition, other factors may affect the performance and value of a property adversely, including changes in laws and governmental regulations (including those governing usage, zoning and taxes), changes in interest rates (including the risk that increased interest rates may result in a decline in the liquidity of our properties), declines in housing or commercial property purchases and the availability of financing. Adverse changes in any of these factors, each of which is beyond our control, could reduce the cash flow that we receive from our properties, and adversely affect the value of your investment.
If we choose to carry debt, inability to make secured debt payments could result in loss of mortgaged property and reduce the value of your investment.
The Company carries secured and unsecured promissory notes. Debt financing carries many risks, including refinancing difficulties, loss of mortgaged properties, reduced ability to obtain new financing and increases in interest. We may choose to use debt financing in connection with future properties. If we cannot meet our secured debt obligations, the lender could take the collateral and we would lose both the secured property and the income, if any, it produces. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would likely have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We could have to pay substantial legal costs in connection with foreclosure of a property, and thus be subject to a deficiency judgment if the foreclosure sale amount is insufficient to satisfy the mortgage.
| 12 |
Rising interest rates could adversely affect our interest expense and cash flow and reduce the value of your investment.
We may borrow money at variable interest rates in the future to finance operations. Increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense on our variable rate debt, which would adversely affect cash flow and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our stockholders.
Our lack of an established brand name and relative lack of resources could negatively impact our ability to effectively compete in the real estate market, which could reduce the value of your investment.
We do not have an established brand name or reputation in the real estate business. We also have a relative lack of resources to conduct our business operations. Thus, we may have difficulty effectively competing with companies that have greater name recognition and resources than we do. Presently, we have no patents, copyrights, trademarks and/or service marks that would protect our brand name or our proprietary information, nor do we have any current plans to file applications for such rights. Our inability to promote and/or protect our brand name may have an adverse effect on our ability to compete effectively in the real estate market.
We may make changes to our business, investment, leverage and financing strategies without stockholder consent, which could reduce the value of your investment.
Our discussions with various individuals concerning various properties or projects have included general discussions of acquiring properties directly either ourselves or in a joint venture with others or of developing properties either ourselves or in a joint venture with others. There is no limitation in the amount of funds we may invest in either property acquisition or property development. There is no limitation on or percentage allocation of funds or assets between property acquisition and property development, or between 100% ownership and joint venture ownership. Further, as the market evolves, we may change our business, investment and financing strategies without a vote of, or notice to, our stockholders, which could result in our making investments and engaging in business activities that are different from, and possibly riskier than, the investments and businesses described in this filing. In particular, a change in our investment strategy, including the manner in which we allocate our resources across our portfolio or the types of assets in which we seek to invest, may increase our exposure to interest rate risk, default risk and real estate market fluctuations. In addition, we may in the future use leverage at times and in amounts deemed prudent by our management in its discretion, and such decision would not be subject to stockholder approval. Changes to our strategies with regards to the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations.
We depend heavily on key personnel, and turnover of key senior management could harm our business.
Our future business and results of operations depend in significant part upon the continued contributions of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board. If we lose their services or if they fail to perform in their current position, or if we are not able to attract and retain skilled employees as needed, our business could suffer. Significant turnover in our senior management could significantly deplete our institutional knowledge held by our existing senior management team. We depend on the skills and abilities of these key officers in managing the product acquisition, marketing and sales aspects of our business, any part of which could be harmed by turnover in the future.
Our future results and reputation may be affected by litigation or other liability claims.
We have procured a $2,000,000 general liability insurance policy for our business. In addition, we procured a $1,000,000 executive and corporate securities liability policy. To the extent that we suffer a loss of a type which would exceed our limit, we could incur significant expenses in defending any action against us and in paying any claims that result from a settlement or judgment against us. Adverse publicity could result in a loss of consumer confidence in our business or our securities.
| 13 |
We may be subject to regulatory inquiries, claims, suits prosecutions which may impact our profitability.
Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with applicable laws and regulations may subject us to regulatory inquiries, claims, suits and prosecutions. We can give no assurance that we will prevail in such regulatory inquiries, claims, suits, and prosecutions on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Responding to, defending and/or settling regulatory inquiries, claims, suits, and prosecutions may be time-consuming and divert management and financial resources or have other adverse effects on our business. A negative outcome in any of these proceedings may result in changes to or discontinuance of some of our services, potential liabilities or additional costs that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and future prospects.
We are vulnerable to concentration risks because we intend to focus on the residential rather than commercial market.
We intend to focus on residential rather than commercial properties. Economic shifts affect residential and commercial property markets, and thus our business, in different ways. A developer with diversified projects in both sectors may be better able to survive a downturn in the residential market if the commercial market remains strong. Our focus on the residential sector can make us more vulnerable than a diversified developer.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR MEXICAN OPERATIONS
General economic conditions in Mexico may have an adverse effect on our operations and reduce our revenues.
General economic conditions in Mexico, such as inflation, high energy prices, expensive telecommunication services, the scarcity of skilled labor, and the Mexican government’s inability to regulate these input markets may diminish Mexico’s comparative advantage and earning capacity in key industries such as real estate; additionally, weakening of the U.S. dollar versus the Mexican Peso and tax fluctuations in Mexico, may have an adverse impact on our business and financial results. The global economy in general and the economic conditions in Mexico remain uncertain. Weak economic conditions could result in lower demand for our properties, resulting in lower sales, earnings, and cash flows.
The value of our securities may be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and the currency of Mexico.
The value of our common stock may be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and the Mexican Peso, and between those currencies and other currencies in which our revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities may be denominated. For example, to the extent that we need to convert the U.S. dollars into the Mexican Pesos for our operational needs, should the Mexican Peso appreciate against the U.S. dollar at that time, our financial position, our business, and the price of our common stock may be harmed. Conversely, if we decide to convert the Mexican Pesos into the U.S. dollars for the purpose of declaring dividends on our common stock or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the Mexican Peso, the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in Mexico would be reduced.
We are subject to anti-corruption laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), as well as trade compliance and economic sanctions laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, harm our reputation and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Doing business in Mexico requires us to comply with the laws and regulations of numerous jurisdictions. These laws and regulations place restrictions on our operations and business practices. In particular, we are subject to the FCPA, which generally prohibits companies and their intermediaries from providing anything of value to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or securing any improper business advantage, along with various other anti-corruption laws. As a result of doing business in Mexico, we are exposed to a heightened risk of violating anti-corruption laws. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure that we, our employees and other intermediaries comply with the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws to which we are subject, there is no assurance that such policies or procedures will work effectively all of the time or protect us against liability under the FCPA or other laws for actions taken by our employees and other intermediaries with respect to our business or any businesses that we may acquire. Any continued international expansion, and any development of new partnerships and joint venture relationships worldwide, increases the risk of FCPA violations in the future.
| 14 |
Violations of anti-corruption laws, export control laws and regulations, and economic sanctions laws and regulations are punishable by civil penalties, including fines, as well as criminal fines and imprisonment. If we fail to comply with the FCPA or other laws governing the conduct of international operations, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties and other remedial measures, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Any investigation of any potential violations of the FCPA or other anti-corruption laws, export control laws and regulations, and economic sanctions laws and regulations by the United States or foreign authorities could also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, regardless of the outcome of the investigation.
Our operations may be affected by social instability in Mexico.
Because we have Mexican operations, we are subject to social instability risks which could materially adversely affect our business and our results of operations. Specifically, our business is exposed to the risk of crime that is currently taking place in certain areas in Tijuana. Recent increases in kidnapping and violent drug related criminal activity in Mexico, and in particular Mexican States bordering the United States, may adversely affect our ability to carry on business safely.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
We will be subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions, and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. We are a “penny stock”, and we are subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the “Penny Stock Rule”. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers. For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.
For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.
We may qualify for an exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.
Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on the entire board of directors, none of which are independent, to perform these functions.
We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors. These functions are performed by the board of directors as a whole. No members of the board of directors are independent directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
| 15 |
We may, in the future, issue additional shares of common stock, which would reduce investors’ percentage of ownership and may dilute our share value.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 250,000,000 shares of common stock. As of the date of this filing, we had 4,664,667 shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly, we may issue approximately 245,335,333 additional shares of common stock subject to limitation on reserve amounts for other securities outstanding. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.
We are subject to compliance with securities law, which exposes us to potential liabilities, including potential rescission rights.
We may offer to sell our common stock to investors pursuant to certain exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, as well as those of various state securities laws. The basis for relying on such exemptions is factual; that is, the applicability of such exemptions depends upon our conduct and that of those persons contacting prospective investors and making the offering. We may not seek any legal opinion to the effect that any such offering would be exempt from registration under any federal or state law. Instead, we may elect to relay upon the operative facts as the basis for such exemption, including information provided by investor themselves.
If any such offering did not qualify for such exemption, an investor would have the right to rescind its purchase of the securities if it so desired. It is possible that if an investor should seek rescission, such investor would succeed. A similar situation prevails under state law in those states where the securities may be offered without registration in reliance on the partial preemption from the registration or qualification provisions of such state statutes under the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996. If investors were successful in seeking rescission, we would face severe financial demands that could adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, if we did not in fact qualify for the exemptions upon which we relied, we may become subject to significant fines and penalties imposed by the SEC and state securities agencies.
Because we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.
We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. There is no assurance that stockholders will be able to sell shares when desired.
| 16 |
We expect to experience volatility in the price of our common stock, which could negatively affect stockholders’ investments.
The trading price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. The stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with securities traded in those markets. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. All of these factors could adversely affect your ability to sell your shares of common stock or, if you are able to sell your shares, to sell your shares at a price that you determine to be fair or favorable.
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock, which could depress the price of our common stock.
FINRA has adopted rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer before recommending an investment to a customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives, and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, the FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares of common stock, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares of common stock, and thereby depress our price per share of common stock.
Anti-takeover effects of certain provisions of Wyoming state law may hinder a potential takeover of us.
Wyoming has a business combination law that prohibits certain business combinations between Wyoming corporations and “interested stockholders” for two years after an “interested stockholder” first becomes an “interested stockholder,” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Wyoming law, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (i) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation or (ii) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “business combination” is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation’s assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.
The effect of Wyoming’s business combination law is potentially to discourage parties interested in taking control of us from doing so if they cannot obtain the approval of our Board. Both of these provisions could limit the price investors would be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.
Our stock is thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell your shares at or near the quoted bid prices if you need to sell a significant number of your shares.
The shares of our common stock are thinly traded on the OTCQB Marketplace, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained. Due to these conditions, we can give you no assurance that you will be able to sell your shares at or near bid prices or at all if you need money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.
| 17 |
Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.
From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to amended Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement. Affiliates may sell after six months subject to Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), and current public information and notice requirements. Any substantial sales of our common stock pursuant to Rule 144 may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
We could issue additional common stock, which might dilute the book value of our common stock.
Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or a part of our authorized but unissued shares. Such stock issuances could be made at a price that reflects a discount or a premium from the then-current trading price of our common stock. In addition, in order to raise capital, we may need to issue securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for a significant amount of our common stock. These issuances would dilute the percentage ownership interest, which would have the effect of reducing your influence on matters on which our shareholders vote and might dilute the book value of our common stock.
Our common stock could be further diluted as a result of the issuance of convertible securities, warrants or options.
In the past, we have issued convertible securities (such as convertible debentures and notes), warrants and options in order to raise money or as compensation for services and incentive compensation for our employees and directors. We have shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of certain of these securities and may increase the shares reserved for these purposes in the future. Our issuance of these convertible securities, options and warrants could affect the rights of our stockholders, could reduce the market price of our common stock or could result in adjustments to exercise prices of outstanding warrants (resulting in these securities becoming exercisable for, as the case may be, a greater number of shares of our common stock), or could obligate us to issue additional shares of common stock to certain of our stockholders.
Our articles of incorporation allow for our board of directors to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.
Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 2,010,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval (including 200,000 shares that have been designated Series A, 1,000 shares that have been designated Series B, 15,000 shares that have been designated Series C, and 20,000 shares that have been designated Series D) (see “Description of Capital Stock”). As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a new series of preferred stock that would grant to holders of preferred stock the right to our assets upon liquidation, or the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the creation of a new series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

Overview of Our Company
The Company was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013. We are based in San Diego, California. We are a residential land development company with target properties located primarily in the Baja California Norte region of Mexico and Southern California. Our principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building plots, securing financing for the purchase of the plots, improving the properties’ infrastructure and amenities, and selling the lots to homebuyers, retirees, investors, and commercial developers. We offer the option of financing (i.e. taking a promissory note from the buyer for all or part of the purchase price) with a guaranteed acceptance on any purchase for every customer.

Overview
The real estate market in Northern Baja California has continued to significantly improve and has fully recovered from the negative impact of Covid-19. The housing prices has continued to rise in the Southwest U.S., and inventory has remained severely low, which generated additional attraction from home buyers seeking second homes or vacation homes.
The Company’s current portfolio includes residential, resort and commercial properties comprising the following projects:
| ■ | Oasis Park Resort is a 497-acres master planned real estate community including 1,344 residential home sites, south of San Felipe, Baja California, which offers a 180-degree sea and mountain views. In addition to the residential lots, there is a planned boutique hotel, a spacious commercial center, and a nautical center. As of the date of this report, 85 of the 1,344 planned residential lots were pre-sold to initial shareholders. The Company has made significant progress on the project, which included the completion of the two-mile access road and the community entrance structure. The Company also started construction of the waterfront clubhouse, and model homes. | |
| ■ | Valle Divino is a self-contained solar 650-home site project in Ensenada, Baja California, with test vineyard at the property. This resort includes 137 residential lots and 3 commercial lots on 20 acres of land. This represents an estimated $60 million in gross sales opportunity. | |
| ■ | Plaza Bajamar Resort is an 80-unit project located at the internationally renowned Bajamar Ocean front hotel and golf resort. The Bajamar oceanfront golf resort is a master planned golf community located 45 minutes south of the San Diego-Tijuana border along the scenic toll road to Ensenada. The first Phase will include 22 “Merlot” 1,150 square-foot single-family homes that features two bedrooms and two baths. The home includes two primary bedroom suites - one on the first floor and one upstairs, as well as fairway and ocean views from a rooftop terrace. The Merlot villas will come with the installation of solar packages. | |
| ■ | Emerald Grove Estates is the Company’s newly renovated Southern California property, used for organized events at this 8,000 square foot event venue. | |
| ■ | Rancho Costa Verde (“RCVD”) is a 1,100-acre master planned second home, retirement home and vacation home real estate community located on the east coast of Baja California. RCVD is a self-sustained solar powered green community that takes advantage of the advances in solar and other green technology. In May 2021, the Company acquired a 25% investment in RCVD in exchange for $100,000 and 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and such investment was initially recorded as an equity-method investment in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. On January 3, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 75% membership interest in RCVD for a contractual consideration of $13.5 million, paid through $8,900,000 secured convertible note, 400,000 shares of common stock and 660,000 common stock warrants. This transaction was recorded pursuant to ASC 805 Business Combinations.
In December 2025, the Company acquired an additional 300 acres of land for their RCVD location for a total consideration of $1.65 million. This purchase is subdivided into 7 parcels and consists of approximately 300 residential homesites, 12 existing tiny homes, and 2 completed homes. |
| 23 |
Summary of key operational and financial events:
| ■ | The Company has collected an aggregate amount of $312,175 from house construction at the Plaza Bajamar project, which was initially recorded and presented as contract liability in the consolidated balance sheets. However, the Company offset the balance with the additional cash funded for the construction of amenities at Bajamar, with the net balance presented as impairment loss in the consolidated statement of operations in the previous year. There were no collections during 2025. | |
| ■ | Continued our research and marketing efforts to identify potential home buyers in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Through the formation of a partnership with a similar development company in the Baja California Norte Region of Mexico, we have been able to leverage additional resources with the use of their established and proven marketing plan which can help us with sophisticated execution and the desired results for residential plot sales and development. | |
| ■ | Title of Oasis Park Resort in San Felipe was assumed during 2019. We are expecting the transfer of title on Valle Divino in Ensenada, Baja California and Plaza Bajamar in Ensenada, Baja California before the end of our second fiscal quarter of 2026, as we continue to follow the necessary steps to complete this legal process. |

Revenues
Revenue decreased by $5,660,527 to $2,434,413 for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $8,094,940 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025, includes real estate sales, interest from financed sales, financing fees, and components of home construction.
| 24 |
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenue increased by $376,472 to $1,618,529 for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $1,242,057 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Cost of revenue includes land cost and related land improvements including infrastructure, construction and subdivision costs.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased by $5,247,071 to $7,977,928 for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $2,730,857 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Such increase mainly relates to a large increase in stock-based compensation expenses of $2,794,632 during 2025 which totaled $3,702,669 compared to $908,037 in the prior year. In addition, general and administrative increased for professional fees and other general and administrative expenses during 2025, due to the lack of capital available during the year ended December 31, 2024. Sales and marketing remained relatively flat, decreasing $18,468 during 2025, from the year ended December 31, 2024. Sales costs are related to real estate’s sales commissions. Marketing costs include advertising, prospective customers’ education, travel, and accommodation.
Other expenses
Other expenses increased by $6,061,895 to $7,136,140 for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $1,074,245 during ended December 31, 2024. Such change is primarily due to the change in fair value of the Company’s derivative liability of $2,800,243 and loss on debt extinguishment of $1,976,914, with interest expense increasing $1,175,377 year over year.
Net Loss
As a result of the foregoing, the Company finished the year ended December 31, 2025, with net loss of $14,298,184, as compared to net income of $3,047,781 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The factors that will most significantly affect future operating results will be:
| ■ | The positive effect of implemented sales and marketing initiatives to drive opportunities into our various projects. |
| ■ | The quality of our amenities. |
| ■ | The global economy and the demand for vacation homes. |
| ■ | The sale price of future plots and home construction compared to the sale price in other resorts in Mexico. |
| ■ | The prime location of our projects. |
Other than the foregoing we do not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on our revenues or expenses.
| 25 |
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Cash was $4,186 and $26,120 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we recorded loss of $14.3 million for year ended December 31, 2025. Our working capital deficit as of December 31, 2025, was $24.3 million. These factors and our ability to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives, raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operations, increased construction activity and the development of current and future projects which include our current business operations.
We anticipate generating increased revenues over the next twelve months, as we continue to market the sale of plots held for sale at our various projects, generate cash from the sale of house construction at our properties.
If the Company is not successful with its marketing efforts to increase sales, the Company will continue to experience a shortfall in cash, and it will be necessary to obtain funds through equity or debt financing in sufficient amounts or to further reduce its operating expenses in a manner to avoid the need to curtail its future operations.
Operating Activities
Net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $998,582 which resulted primarily due to net loss of $14,298,184, off-set by non-cash share-based compensation of $3,702,669, loss on debt conversion of $1,976,914, change in fair value of derivative liability of $2,800,243, and by a positive net change in assets and liabilities of $3,035,516.
Net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $384,680 which resulted primarily due to net income of $3,047,781, non-cash share-based compensation of $908,037, depreciation of $87,250, and change in fair value of derivative liability of $338,311, offset by a negative net change in assets and liabilities of $4,089,436.
| 26 |
Investing Activities
Net cash flows used in investing activities was $3,101,938 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The funds were used for the development of the various projects and additional investment for land development, as well as an increase in long-term accounts receivable.
Net cash flows used in investing activities was $513,138 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The funds were used for the development of the various projects and additional investment for land development.
Financing Activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $4,078,586, primarily from cash proceeds from other loans of $1,497,217, cash proceeds from convertible notes of $4,297,100, cash proceeds from the issuance of Series C Preferred stock of $250,000, and cash proceeds from promissory notes of $100,000, primarily offset by cash payments on other loans of $1,751,465, dividends paid of $132,054, and cash payments on convertible notes of $329,414.
Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $738,691, primarily from cash proceeds from related parties for aggregate amount of $242,875, cash proceeds from convertible notes of $456,130, cash proceeds from other loans for $666,363, cash proceeds from promissory notes of $75,000, dividends paid of $91,678, and cash payments on promissory notes of $565,000.
As a result of these activities, we experienced a decrease in cash of $21,934 for the year ended December 31, 2025. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our success in obtaining additional financing from investors or from the sale of our common shares.
Critical Accounting Polices
In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 of our audited consolidated financial statements included herein. We consider the following accounting policies critical to the understanding of the results of our operations:
| ■ | Going concern. It requires to rely on management’s representation on financial forecast. |
| ■ | Revenue recognition. It requires judgement to determine when a contract exists, when performance obligations are met and the estimated variable consideration if any. |
| ■ | Issuance of debt with attached financial instruments. Some instruments carry embedded features that require bifurcation from host instrument and accounting as derivative liability. |
| ■ | Accounting of the Company’s equity-method investment. Indeed, it requires judgement by management to determine whether there is significant influence or control over the Company’s investee. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over these policies. |
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The recent accounting pronouncements that are material to our financial statements are disclosed in Note 2 of our consolidated audited financial statements included herein.

INTERNATIONAL LAND ALLIANCE, INC. INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| F-1 |
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholder and the Board of Directors,
International Land Alliance, Inc.
San Diego, CA
Opinion on the Financial Statements
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations in recent years and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are disclosed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. 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 matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
| 1. | Accounts Receivable – Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
The allowance for doubtful accounts was identified as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgment involved in estimating collectability of receivables. As of the balance sheet date, International Land Alliance, Inc. reported accounts receivable, net of allowance, of approximately $1.5 million. The estimation process involves subjective assumptions, including aging, historical collection trends, and customer-specific risks, particularly for financed sales and accounts with irregular payment patterns. Auditing this area required heightened auditor judgment and evaluation of estimation uncertainty and therefore involved especially challenging and subjective auditor procedures. Accordingly, we determined this matter to be a critical audit matter.
How the Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the valuation of the Allowance for doubtful accounts included, the following:
| ● | Our audit procedures related to the Company’s allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) on accounts receivable included, among others: |
| ● | Obtaining the accounts receivable aging and repayment schedules for financed sales and agreeing the total balances to the general ledger and trial balance to assess completeness and accuracy. |
| ● | Testing the reconciliation of gross receivables, the allowance for expected credit losses, and net receivables to the underlying accounting records. |
| ● | Evaluating customer payment histories and identifying accounts with delinquent or irregular payment patterns to assess the need for specific reserves, including full (100%) allowances where appropriate. |
| ● | Assessing the reasonableness of management’s assumptions and methodology used in estimating the ECL allowance, including consideration of historical collection trends and relevant qualitative factors. |
| ● | In addition, we independently recalculated the expected credit loss allowance and identified a material difference compared to management’s estimate. We proposed an audit adjustment (AJE) to correct the variance, which was reviewed and accepted by management and recorded in the financial statements. |
| 2. | Revenues and Deferred revenues |
Revenue recognition was identified as a critical audit matter due to the nature and timing of transactions and the subjectivity involved in cost estimation and evaluation of audit evidence. For the year ended, International Land Alliance, Inc. reported revenue of approximately $2.43 million from land sales and construction activities. While land sales require judgment in cutoff, construction revenue recognized over time involves estimation of total costs and progress toward completion. Based on discussions with management, the Company maintains a standardized arrangement with contractors, whereby construction costs are determined through informal agreements without separate formal cost estimation contracts, increasing estimation uncertainty. Accordingly, due to the audit effort and judgment involved, revenue recognition was determined to be a critical audit matter.
How the Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the recognition of revenue and deferred revenue included, the following:
| ● | We obtained an understanding of the Company’s revenue recognition processes and evaluated the design and implementation of relevant controls over contract review, cost estimation, and revenue recording. |
| ● | We agreed the revenue schedule to the general ledger for completeness and accuracy and selected samples for substantive testing, including items above performance materiality and random selections. |
| ● | For land sales, we inspected executed agreements and closing documentation to assess proper timing of revenue recognition. |
| ● | For construction revenue, we reviewed contracts, invoices, and cost data to understand terms and evaluated the reasonableness of management’s cost estimates using supporting documentation and standardized cost metrics. |
| ● | We independently recalculated percentage of completion under the cost-to-cost method using costs incurred relative to total estimated costs and agreed underlying data to the accounting records. |
| ● | We reviewed progressive billings, traced transactions to the general ledger, results indicated revenue recognition was incorrect with differences identified. We proposed an audit adjustment (AJE) to correct the variance, which was reviewed and accepted by management and recorded in the financial statements. |

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Nature of Operations
International Land Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013. The Company is a residential land development company with target properties located in the Baja California, Northern region of Mexico and Southern California. The Company’s principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building plots, securing financing for the purchase of the plots, improving the properties infrastructure and amenities, and selling the plots to homebuyers, retirees, investors, and commercial developers.
In
May 2021, the Company acquired a
Going Concern and liquidity
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
Management
evaluated all relevant conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate, as of the date the consolidated
financial statements were available to be issued and determined that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate
revenues from its properties, raise capital or issue debt instruments. The Company has faced significant liquidity shortages as shown
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its
current assets by approximately $
The Company is currently raising additional capital through debt and equity financing in order to continue the funding of its operations, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders.
Management anticipates that the Company’s capital resources will significantly improve if its plots of land gain wider market recognition and acceptance resulting in increased plot sales and house construction. If the Company is not successful with its marketing efforts to increase sales, the Company will continue to experience a shortfall in cash, and it will be necessary to obtain funds through equity or debt financing in sufficient amounts or to further reduce its operating expenses in a manner to avoid the need to curtail its future operations subsequent to December 31, 2025. The direct impact of these conditions is not fully known.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to secure additional funds if needed and that if such funds were available on commercially reasonable terms or in the necessary amounts, and whether the terms or conditions would be acceptable to the Company. In such case, the reduction in operating expenses might need to be substantial in order for the Company to generate positive cash flow to sustain the operations of the Company.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, ILA Fund I, LLC (the “ILA Fund”), a company incorporated in the State of Wyoming and International Land Alliance, S.A. de C.V. (“ILA Mexico”), a company incorporated in Mexico, Emerald Grove Estates LLC, incorporated in the State of California, Oasis Park Resort, LLC, incorporated in the State of Wyoming, Plaza Bajamar, LLC, incorporated in the State of Wyoming, and Plaza Valle Divino, LLC, incorporated in the State of California.
ILA Fund includes cash as its only assets with minimal expenses as of December 31, 2025. The sole purpose of this entity is strategic funding for the operations of the Company. ILA Mexico has lots held for sale for the Oasis Park Resort, no liabilities, and minimal expenses as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, Emerald Grove Estates LLC, Plaza Bajamar LLC, and Plaza Valle Divino LLC have no operations. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries were as follows as of December 31, 2025:
| Name of Consolidated Subsidiary or Entity | State or Other Jurisdiction of Incorporation or Organization | Attributable Interest | ||||

Reclassification
Certain numbers from 2024 have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
Investments - Equity Method
The Company accounts for equity method investments at cost, adjusted for the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company periodically reviews the investments for other than temporary declines in fair value below cost and more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. On January 3, 2023, the Company acquired a controlling financial interest in its previous equity method investment, which resulted in the consolidation pursuant to ASC 805 Business Combinations of such entity on the effective date.
| F-9 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the valuation of assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience, and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from management’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. Significant estimates include:
| ■ | Liability for legal contingencies. | |
| ■ | Useful lives of building. | |
| ■ | Assumptions used in valuing equity instruments. | |
| ■ | Deferred income taxes and related valuation allowance. | |
| ■ | Going concern. | |
| ■ | Assessment of long-lived asset for impairment. | |
| ■ | Significant influence or control over the Company’s equity-method investee. | |
| ■ | Revenue recognition. |

Fair value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: uses quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: uses observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: uses unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
As defined by ASC 820, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale, which was further clarified as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (“an exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The reported fair values for financial instruments that use Level 2 and Level 3 inputs to determine fair value are based on a variety of factors and assumptions. Accordingly, certain fair values may not represent actual values of the Company’s financial instruments that could have been realized as of any balance sheet dates presented or that will be recognized in the future, and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual settlement.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid, and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, contracts liability, deposits, promissory notes, net of debt discounts and promissory notes related party, deferred revenue, and other loans, approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Equity-method investment is recorded at cost, which approximates its fair value since the consideration transferred includes cash and a non-monetary transaction, in the form of the Company’s common stock, which was valued based on a combination of a market and asset approach.
| F-10 |
The fair value of the Company’s recorded derivative liability is determined based on unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data, which require a Level 3 classification. A Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to determine the fair value. The Company records derivative liability on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operation.
The following table presents balances of the liabilities with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of December 31, 2025:

Derivative Liability
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has variable rate convertible promissory notes, which contained variable conversion rates based on unknown future prices of the Company’s common stock. This resulted in the recognition of a derivative liability as the conversion feature failed the scope exception for derivative accounting due to the variability of its conversion price. The Company measures the derivative liability using the Black-Scholes option valuation model using the following assumptions:
| For Years Ending December 31, | ||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | |||||||
| Expected term | ||||||||
| Exercise price | ||||||||
| Expected volatility | ||||||||
| Expected dividends | ||||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | ||||||||
| Forfeitures | ||||||||
| F-11 |
The assumptions used in determining fair value represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change, including changes in the market value of the Company’s common stock, managements’ assessment, or significant fluctuations in the volatility of the trading market for the Company’s common stock, the Company’s fair value estimates could be materially different in the future.
The Company computes the fair value of the derivative liability at each reporting period and the change in the fair value is recorded as non-cash expense or non-cash income. The key component in the value of the derivative liability is the Company’s stock price, which is subject to significant fluctuation and is not under its control, and the assessment of volatility. The resulting effect on net loss is therefore subject to significant fluctuation and will continue to be so until the Company’s variable convertible notes, which the convertible feature is associated with, are converted into common stock or paid in full with cash. Assuming all other fair value inputs remain constant, the Company will record non-cash expense when its stock price increases and non-cash income when its stock price decreases.
Cost Capitalization
The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of the property, legal fees, and other acquisition costs. Costs directly related to planning, developing, initial leasing and constructing a property are capitalized and classified as Buildings in the consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized development costs include interest, property taxes, insurance, and other direct project costs incurred during the period of development are also capitalized.
A variety of costs are incurred in the acquisition, development, and leasing of properties. After determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. Determination of when a development project is substantially complete, and capitalization must cease involves a degree of judgment. Our capitalization policy on development properties is guided by ASC 835-20 Interest – Capitalization of Interest and ASC 970 Real Estate - General. The costs of land and buildings under development include specifically identifiable costs. The capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred during the period of development. We consider a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy or sale upon the receipt of certificates of occupancy, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We cease capitalization on the portion (1) substantially completed and (2) occupied or held available for occupancy, and we capitalize only those costs associated with the portion under construction.
Land Held for Sale
The Company considers properties to be assets held for sale when (1) management commits to a plan to sell the property; (2) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition and (3) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given our estimate of current market value. Upon designation of a property as an asset held for sale, we record the property’s value at the lower of its’ carrying value or its estimated net realizable value.
Land and Buildings
Land
and buildings are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided by the use of the straight-line and accelerated methods for financial and
tax reporting purposes, respectively, over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings have an estimated useful life of
Construction in progress (“CIP”)
A CIP asset reflects the cost of construction work undertaken, but not yet completed on land not currently owned by the Company. For construction in progress assets, no depreciation is recorded until the asset is placed in service. When construction is completed, the assets should be reclassified as building, building improvement, infrastructure or land improvement and should be capitalized and depreciated. The land is currently owned by companies controlled by our chairman of the board.
| F-12 |
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the double declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets:
| Classification | Life | |||
| Buildings | ||||
| Furniture and equipment |
Revenue Recognition
The Company determines revenue recognition pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, through the following steps:
| ■ | Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. | |
| ■ | Identification of the performance obligations in the agreement(s) for the sale of plots or house construction. | |
| ■ | Determination of the transaction price. | |
| ■ | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract. | |
| ■ | Recognition of revenue when, or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
Revenue is measured based on considerations specified in the agreements with our customers. A contract exists when it becomes a legally enforceable agreement with a customer. The contract is based on either the acceptance of standard terms and conditions as stated in our agreement of plot sales or house construction with customers. These contracts define each party’s rights, payment terms and other contractual terms and conditions of the sale. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration which we will expect to receive in exchange for execution of the performance obligation(s).
The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay the consideration which the Company is entitled to. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract or agreement to transfer a distinct product or item to the customer. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the property that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the property is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Management considers the retention of title as merely a protective right, which would not disallow revenue recognition for the full consideration to which the Company is entitled upon the execution of a contract for deed.
Currently, upon execution of each contract for deed, the Company has not developed sufficient controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that collection of the consideration, which the Company is entitled to, is probable. In addition, the title of the land for the various projects (Bajamar and Divino) is held by an entity that is controlled by the Company’s chairman of the board.
| F-13 |
The Company’s principal activities in the real estate development industry which it generates its revenues from are the sale of developed and undeveloped land and house construction.
Rancho Costa Verde Development or RCVD generates revenue from the following sources: (1) lot sales, (2) home construction calculated as a set percentage of builders’ costs, (3) administrative income for loan servicing, (4) interest income resulting from monthly payments from financed loans made to customers on lot sales, (5) resale income as commission for selling homes for owners that have purchased lots at RCVD and (6) utilities revenue from waste water systems and solar systems.
The Company identified the following performance obligations related to the operations of RCVD: (1) subdivision of the developer parcel, (ii) casita free week for each customer allowing them to enjoy a free week to a casita per year. The Company determined that there was a significant financing component in most arrangements with customers, which results in the recognition of interest income.

Debt issuance costs and debt discounts
Debt issuance costs and debt discounts are being amortized over the lives of the related financings on a straight-line approach, which approximates the effective interest method. Costs and discounts are presented as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Stock-Based Compensation
The fair value of stock options is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on weighted average assumptions. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock. The Company has elected to use the simplified method described in the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14C to estimate the expected term of employee stock options. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The value of stock awards is determined using the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Any compensation cost previously recognized for an unvested award that is forfeited because of a failure to satisfy a service condition is reversed in the period of the forfeiture. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Stock-based compensation includes the fair value of options, warrants and restricted stocks issued to employees, directors, and non-employees.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provide that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
| F-14 |
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Management makes estimates and judgments about our future taxable income that are based on assumptions that are consistent with our plans and estimates. Should the actual amounts differ from our estimates, the amount of our valuation allowance could be materially impacted. Any adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance would be recorded in the income statement for the periods in which the adjustment is determined to be required. Management does not believe that it has taken any positions that would require the recording of any additional tax liability, nor does it believe that there are any unrealized tax benefits that would either increase or decrease within the next year.
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 – Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. 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 notes payable using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is antidilutive. During periods of net loss, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they are antidilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2025.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. The Company fully impaired its long-lived assets due to the uncertainty in title transfer of the land not currently owned by the Company and the estimated fair value of its construction in progress during both years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Company uses the specific identification method for recording the provision for doubtful accounts, which was $
Convertible Promissory Note
The Company accounts for convertible promissory notes in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt to determine whether the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the Income Statement. If the conversion feature does not require recognition of a bifurcated derivative, the convertible debt instrument is evaluated for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) requiring separate recognition. When the Company records a BCF, the intrinsic value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument with an offset to additional paid-in capital and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

Within the “restricted zone,” a foreigner can purchase the beneficial interest in real property through a bank trust or “fideicomiso.” Indeed, a bank trust must be used when acquiring property within the restricted zone. In this bank trust, the buyer of the property is designated as the “fideicomisario” or the beneficiary of the trust. While legal title is held by the bank, (specifically the trustee of the trust or the “fiduciario,”) the trustee must administer the property in accordance with the instructions of the buyer (the beneficiary of the trust). The property is not an asset of the bank, and the trustee is obligated to follow every lawful instruction given by the beneficiary to perform legal action. The Company has not yet established the bank trust, which is anticipated to occur before the end of the fiscal year 2026.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, being December 31, 2025. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon that evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report due to the material weaknesses indicated below. We intend to implement additional procedures to improve disclosure controls.
MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
| 28 |
As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with limited personnel:
| ■ | Lack of qualified and sufficient personnel, and processes to adequately and timely identify any and all required public disclosures. |
| ■ | Deficiencies in the period-end reporting process and accounting policies. |
| ■ | Inadequate internal controls over the application of new accounting principles or the application of existing accounting principles to new transactions. |
| ■ | Inadequate internal controls relating to the authorization, recognition, capture, and review of transactions, facts, circumstances, and events that could have a material impact on the Company’s financial reporting processes. |
| ■ | Inadequate controls over maintenance of records. |
Management has assigned a priority to the short-term and long-term improvement of our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company plans to:
| ■ | Continue to outsource the bookkeeping and technical accounting functions to external consulting firms due to the lack of internal resources. |
| ■ | Emphasize the importance of, and monitor the sustained compliance with, the execution of our internal controls over financial reporting. |
| ■ | Work with our third-party service provider to ensure that our accounting and reporting for income taxes are timely and accurate |
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS
No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Jeffrey S. Healy
Mr. Healy has been one of our directors since February 2026. Mr. Healy has been a high-level partner and executive in the resort, hospitality and vacation ownership industry for over 25 years, specializing in international developments. Beginning in 1983, Mr. Healy practiced as a CPA and executive with KPMG Peat Marwick for 9 years. In 1993, Mr. Healy was hired as the Executive Director and CFO for The Villa Group (Villa del Palmar, Villa La Estancia and Garza Blanca Resorts). During that time, Mr. Healy lived in Mexico and oversaw all financial, operational and administrative functions of their resort group and Vacation Club, with various hotels and timeshare resorts in Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas. Mr. Healy was also very involved in the evolution of the Villa La Estancia brand, one of the most successful fractional projects developed to date.
In mid-1998, Mr. Healy became a partner in a resort services company, ResortCom International. In this role, Mr. Healy was the CEO/President of ResortCom for the next 13 years. Mr. Healy ran this operation, along with his partner, John Small, who had many years of experience running top luxury hotels all over the world. ResortCom provides financial services, reservations and travel call center services, Vacation Club Management and Administration, resort management and marketing and lead generation marketing for the shared ownership industry (both timeshare and luxury fractional). ResortCom also developed one of the most advanced and complete technology and software operating systems for the industry to date. ResortCom has over 85 resort clients located in the US and internationally, with most in Latin America.
In 2011, Mr. Healy entered into the joint venture, called Club Tesoro Resorts, LLC, with Steadfast Companies, a $5 billion real estate investment company in Irvine, California, to create one of the most current and consumer desired vacation ownership programs in the market within their hospitality division. Mr. Healy was the Managing Director for Club Tesoro Resorts through September 2017.
Since 2004, Mr. Healy has also been a minority partner in PDS Resorts. The group has owned and managed various hotels in Mexico. In addition, the group has run very successful vacation club membership programs within those properties. Since 2017, Mr. Healy has been active in the Executive Committee for their current hotel (Costa Sur Resort). Most recently, Mr. Healy purchased BLC Enterprises, Inc., which is a boutique resorts financial services and reservations company. It services a large vacation club and resort based in Nuevo Vallarta (Paradise Village). In addition, BLC has recently entered into a Marketing partnership with Trinity Resort Services, and an agreement to eventually combine the two companies. Trinity is another resorts financial and reservations services company.
We believe that Mr. Healy is well qualified to serve as our director because of his extensive career in resort and hospitality, as well as experience with start-up ventures.

Ms. Love is a licensed CPA and an experienced finance professional with 20+ years of experience in accounting, finance and risk management, both in public accounting and in the private sector.

We believe that Ms. Love is well qualified to serve as our director because of her career in public accounting and experience serving as a director in the industry sector.
Curt J. Welker
Mr. Welker has been one of our directors since February 2026. Mr. Welker began his public accounting career in 1982 as an assistant controller – and later Chief Financial Officer – for an international trading firm. He also spent over four years with a Big Four CPA firm.

Mr. Welker received a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from San Diego State University where he also did his graduate tax work in the Masters in Tax program. He is a member of the American Institute of CPAs and the California Society of CPAs.
We believe that Mr. Welker is well qualified to serve as our director because of his experience in public accounting and having served as a CFO.
Term of Office
All officers and directors listed above will remain in office until the next annual meeting of our stockholders, and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. There are no agreements with respect to the election of directors. We have not compensated our directors for service on our board of directors, any committee thereof, or reimbursed for expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of our board of directors and/or any committee of our board of directors. We do not have any standing committees. Our board of directors may in the future determine to pay directors’ fees and reimburse directors for expenses related to their activities. Officers are appointed annually by our board of directors and each executive officer serves at the discretion of our board of directors.
None of our officers and/or directors have filed any bankruptcy petition, been convicted of or been the subject of any criminal proceedings or the subject of any order, judgment or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws within the past five (5) years.
| 32 |
Board Committees
Audit Committee
We do not have a standing audit committee of the board of directors. Management has determined not to establish an audit committee at present because of our limited resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an audit committee or the expense of doing so. Our board of directors has determined that Lori Love possesses accounting or related financial management experience that qualifies her as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Code of Ethics
We have not yet adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer, but will adopt a Code of Ethics when determined appropriate in the near future. Our Code of Ethics will be available on our website at www.ila.company.
There is no arrangement or understanding between any person pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer, and there is no arrangement, plan or understanding as to whether non-management shareholders will exercise their voting rights to continue to elect directors to our board of directors. There are also no arrangements, agreements or understandings between non-management shareholders that may directly or indirectly participate in or influence the management of our affairs.
Family Relationships
Jason Sunstein and Lisa Landau are brother and sister. Ms. Landau is a former executive officer and former Secretary of the Company and a shareholder of the Company. The Company issued a promissory note to RAS, LLC “RAS”, a company controlled by Ms. Landau.
| 33 |
Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process
Our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and Chief Financial Officer and Director positions are held by Roberto Jesus Valdes, Frank Ingrande, and Jason Sunstein, respectively, who currently beneficially own approximately 4.6%, 6.4%, and 4.9%, respectively, of the voting power of our outstanding common stock. Periodically, our board of directors assesses these roles and the board of directors’ leadership structure to ensure the interests of our company and our stockholders are best served. Our board of directors has determined that our current leadership structure is appropriate. Each of Roberto Jesus Valdes, Frank Ingrande, and Jason Sunstein has extensive knowledge of all aspects of our company, our business and risks.
While management is responsible for assessing and managing risks to our company, our board of directors is responsible for overseeing management’s efforts to assess and manage risk. This oversight will be conducted primarily by our full board of directors, which has responsibility for general oversight of risks, and any standing committees of our board of directors. Our board of directors will satisfy this responsibility through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within our company. Our board of directors believes that full and open communications between management and the board of directors are essential for effective risk management and oversight.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:
● been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
● had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;
● been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, by any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, his involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, investment, banking, savings and loan, or insurance activities, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity;
● been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;
● been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or
● been the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.
From time to time, we may be subject to various legal or administrative claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Litigation or any other legal or administrative proceeding, regardless of the outcome, is likely to result in substantial cost and diversion of our company’s resources, including our company’s management’s time and attention.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and officers, and the persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Copies of all filed reports are required to be furnished to us pursuant to Rule 16a-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based solely on the reports received by us and on the representations of the reporting persons, we believe that these persons have complied with all applicable filing requirements during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Indemnification of Executive Officers and Directors
Section 17-16-856 of the Wyoming Business Corporation Act provides that any director or officer of a Wyoming corporation may be indemnified against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by him in connection with or in defending any action, suit or proceeding in which he is a party by reason of his position, so long as it shall be determined that he conducted himself in good faith and that he reasonably believed that his conduct was in the corporation’s best interest and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. If a director or officer is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in connection with such proceeding, such indemnification is mandatory.
Currently we maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering our directors and officers against expenses and liabilities arising from certain actions to which they may become subject by reason of having served in such role.
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents where indemnification will be required under Wyoming law. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or preceding that might result in a claim for such indemnification.
| 34 |
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE
We do not offer retirement benefit plan to our named executive officers, nor have we entered into any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, that provides for payments to a named executive officer at, or in connection with, the resignation, retirement or other termination of a named executive officer, or a change in control of the company or a change in the named executive officer’s responsibilities following a change in control.
We do not have any standard arrangement for compensation of our directors for any services provided as director, including services for committee participation or for special assignments.
The Company does not have a compensation committee. Given the nature of the Company’s business, its limited stockholder base and the current composition of management, the board of directors does not believe that the Company requires a compensation committee at this time.
The information required by Regulation S-K Item 407(e)(4), “Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation,” and Item 407(e)(5), “Compensation Committee Report,” is not required because the Company is a smaller reporting company.
The following table sets forth information regarding each element of compensation that we paid or awarded to our named executive officers, for the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, which includes cash compensation, stock options awarded and all other compensation:

On February 11, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved the 2019 equity incentive plan (the “2019 Plan”). In order for the 2019 Plan to grant “qualified stock options” to employees, it requires approval by the Company’s shareholders within 12 months from the date of the 2019 Plan. The 2019 Plan was never approved by the stockholders. Therefore, any options granted under the 2019 Plan prior to stockholder approval will be “non-qualified.” The Company has reserved a total of 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be available under the 2019 Plan. The Company had 43,000 options issued and outstanding under the 2019 Plan as of December 31, 2025.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
The following table sets forth certain information, as of April 27, 2026, with respect to the beneficial ownership of the outstanding common stock by (i) any holder of more than five percent (5%); (ii) each of our executive officers and directors; and (iii) our directors and executive officers as a group.
The table lists applicable percentage ownership based on 4,664,667 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 27, 2026. In addition, the rules include shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants that are either immediately exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of April 27, 2026. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding those options for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.
We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to those securities. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons or entities identified in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws. Except as otherwise noted below, the address for persons listed in the table is c/o International Land Alliance, Inc., 350 10th Avenue, Suite 1000, San Diego, CA 92101.
