We are registering the Shares on behalf of the Selling Shareholders, to be offered and sold by them from time to time.

Upon the exercise of the Warrants for all 1,760,340 Shares by payment of cash, we would receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $9.21 million. However, we cannot predict when and in what amounts or if the Warrants will be exercised, and it is possible that the Warrants may expire and never be exercised, in which case we would not receive any cash proceeds. We have agreed to bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Shares. The Selling Shareholders will pay or assume discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers or dealer managers and similar expenses, if any, incurred for the sale of the Shares.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus, any amendment and the information incorporated by reference into this prospectus contain various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events. Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, which depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, and/or which include words such as “believes,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “may,” “will” or similar expressions. In addition, any statements concerning future financial performance, ongoing strategies or prospects, and possible future actions including any potential strategic transaction involving us, which may be provided by our management, are also forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions about our company, economic and market factors, and the industry in which we do business, among other things. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Actual events and results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. Factors that could cause our actual performance, future results and actions to differ materially from any forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and in any of our filings with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act incorporated by reference into this prospectus. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus, and the information incorporated by reference herein represent our views as of the date such statements are made. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date such statements are made.
Unless otherwise indicated, information contained in this prospectus concerning our industry and the market in which we operate, including our market position, market opportunity and market size, is based on information from various sources, on assumptions that we have made based on such data and other similar sources and on our knowledge of the markets for our products. These data sources involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates.
We have not independently verified any third-party information. While we believe the market position, market opportunity and market size information included in this prospectus is generally reliable, such information is inherently imprecise. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industry in which we operate is necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus and in any documents that we incorporate by reference into this prospectus and the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates made by the independent parties and by us.

Company Overview
Netcapital Inc. is a fintech company with a scalable technology platform that allows private companies to raise capital online from accredited and non-accredited investors. We give virtually all investors the opportunity to access investments in private companies. Our model allows for traditional private equity investing and is based on Title III, Regulation Crowdfunding (“Reg CF”) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) and our model also includes Regulation A (“Reg A”) offerings conducted by our wholly-owned subsidiary Netcapital Securities, Inc. (“Netcapital Securities”). We generate fees from listing private companies on our funding portal located at www.netcapital.com. Our consulting group, Netcapital Advisors Inc. (“Netcapital Advisors”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary, provides marketing and strategic advice to companies in exchange for cash fees and/or equity positions. The Netcapital funding portal is registered with the SEC, is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), a registered national securities association, and provides investors with opportunities to invest in private companies. Both A and Reg CF offerings are made available to investors via the Company’s website, www.netcapital.com. In addition, we recently announced plans to expand our platform to support offerings of tokenized securities under our existing registration exemptions. These tokenized securities will include fractionalized real-world assets (RWAs) like real estate, and may be expanded in the future to include other assets.
Our Business
We provide private company investment access to accredited and non-accredited investors through (i) our online portal (www.netcapital.com), which is operated by our wholly owned subsidiaries Netcapital Funding Portal, Inc and (ii) our broker-dealer subsidiary, Netcapital Securities. The Netcapital funding portal charges a $5,000 listing fee, a 4.9% portal fee for capital raised at closing, and beginning in fiscal year 2025, a 1% success fee paid for with equity of the funding portal customer. In addition, the portal generates fees for other ancillary services, such as rolling closes. Netcapital Advisors previously generated fees and equity stakes from consulting in select portfolio (“Portfolio Companies”) and non-portfolio clients. Given our limited staff, we did not seek consulting engagements in fiscal 2025 and we do not plan to seek them in fiscal 2026. With respect to services for Reg A offerings, Netcapital Securities charges a listing fee of $25,000 and a success fee of 4.9% of the capital raised by an issuer under Reg A.
We generated revenues of $869,460, with costs of service of $40,344, in the year ended April 30, 2025 for a gross profit of $829,116 as compared to revenues of $4,951,435, with costs of service of $108,060, in the year ended April 30, 2024 for a gross profit of $4,843,375 (consisting of $3,537,700 in equity securities for payment of services and $1,413,736 in cash-based revenues, offset by $108,060 for costs of services). In fiscal 2025, we did not provide consulting services to Portfolio Companies in exchange for equity, which accounts for the largest portion of our decline in revenues in fiscal 2025 as compared to fiscal 2024 as we received revenues of approximately $3.5 million fiscal 2024 and compared to $0 in fiscal 2025. However, our funding portal did charge a 1% fee, payable in securities, to every issuer that closed an offering. The dollar value of that fee amounted to $72,090 and $97,700 for the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We had net losses of $28,301,325 and $4,986,317 in the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additionally, we had net losses of $5,771,541 and $4,747,671 for the six months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Our revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2025, decreased by $119,452, or approximately 70%, to $51,076, as compared to $170,528 during the three months ended October 31, 2024. The decrease in revenues was attributed to the lack of new issuers signing up for funding portal services. Only five new issuers launched a crowdfunding campaign in the three months ended October 31, 2025, as compared to 16 offerings launched in the three months ended October 31, 2024.
We generated revenues of $241,134, with costs of service of $9,286, in the six months ended October 31, 2025, for a gross profit of $231,848 as compared to revenues of $312,755, with costs of service of $30,001, in the six months ended October 31, 2024, for a gross profit of $282,754. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributed to a decrease in the number of issuers raising capital on the funding portal’s platform. New offerings launched amounted to 10 issuers in the six months ended October 31, 2025, as compared to 37 issuers in the six months ended October 31, 2024. Five issuers successfully closed offerings in the six months ended October 31, 2025, as compared to 17 issuers in the six months ended October 31, 2024.
The total number of offerings on the Netcapital funding portal in fiscal 2025 and 2024 that closed was 70 in each fiscal year, of which
21 and 17 offerings hosted on the Netcapital funding platform in fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively, terminated their listings without
raising the required minimum dollar amount of capital. For the three- and six-months periods ended October 31, 2025, 5 and 10 issuers
have launched an offering on the portal, respectively, as compared to 16 and 37 issuers that launched an offering in the three- and six-month
periods ended October 31, 2024, respectively.
As of the date of this prospectus, we have minority equity positions in 19 Portfolio Companies that have utilized the funding portal to facilitate their offerings, which equity was received as payment for services. Beginning in fiscal 2025, we no longer provide consulting services in exchange for equity securities. In addition to the 19 Portfolio Companies, we have investments in 2 companies that Netcapital Advisors provided services to, but which did not raise capital on our funding portal. Furthermore, beginning in fiscal 2024, our funding portal has charged each issuer a fee of 1% of the equity raised on the funding portal.
As of October 31, 2025, our funding portal received equity fee payments from a total of 66 issuers, which have an aggregate value of $278,440, as compared to 61 issuers with an aggregate value of $169,790 as of April 30, 2025. In the three- and six-month periods ended October 31, 2025, we recorded $1,510 and $63,705 in revenues from the receipt of equity securities. In the three- and six-month periods ended October 31, 2024 we recorded $14,748 and $24,875 in revenues from the receipt of equity securities. In the six months ended October 31, 2025 the Company also recognized an unrealized gain of $44,945 from changes in observable prices of investment securities owned by us, as compared to no unrealized gains or losses in the six months ended October 31, 2024.
For the three months ended October 31, 2025, we had one customer that constituted 23% of revenues, a second customer that constituted 13% of revenues and a third customer that accounted for 10% of revenues. For the six months ended October 31, 2025, we had one customer that constituted 58% of revenues. For the three and six months ended October 31, 2024, we had one customer that constituted 44% and 24% of revenues, respectively.
Revenue from portal fees decreased by $285,294, or 33%, in fiscal 2025 to $589,074 from $874,368 in fiscal 2024. Revenue from portal fees consists of a 4.9% fee of the total capital raised by an issuer plus fixed miscellaneous charges for administrative fees, such as a rolling close, or the filing of an amended offering statement. The decrease is attributable to a 29% decrease in the total dollars invested through the portal, from $14.8 million in fiscal 2024 to $10.6 million in fiscal 2025. The total number of issuers on the Netcapital funding portal in fiscal 2025 and 2024 that successfully closed an offering was 49 and 53, respectively.
Revenue from listing fees decreased by $234,540, or 53%, to $207,500 in fiscal 2025 as compared to $442,040 in fiscal 2024. The decrease in listing revenue is directly attributable to the 54% decrease in offerings launched in fiscal 2025, as compared to fiscal 2024. New listings dropped from 82 in Fiscal 2024 to 38 in fiscal 2025. Listing fees are typically $5,000 per issuer, and they are the first form of revenue earned by our Funding Portal when an issuer signs a contract with us to sell securities on the funding portal. After the listing contract is signed, an issuer typically takes two months before it is ready to launch an offering. Most issuers remain on the funding portal, marketing their offering, for a period of six to nine months.
In fiscal 2025 and 2024, the average amount raised in an offering on the Netcapital funding portal was $215,745 and $280,978, respectively. The total number of offerings on the Netcapital funding portal in fiscal 2025 and 2024 that closed was 70 in each fiscal year, of which 21 and 17 offerings hosted on the Netcapital funding platform in fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively, terminated their listings without raising the required minimum dollar amount of capital.
Our financial statements as of April 30, 2025 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm included in its opinion for the year ended April 30, 2025 an explanatory paragraph referring to our negative working capital, operating losses, and negative cash flows from operations and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements.
As of January 15, 2026, we had $792,771 in cash and cash equivalents.
Funding Portal
Netcapital.com is an SEC-registered funding portal that enables private companies to raise capital online, while investors are able to invest from almost anywhere in the world, at any time, with just a few clicks. Securities offerings on the portal are accessible through individual offering pages, where companies include product or service details, market size, competitive advantages, and financial documents. Companies can accept investments from virtually anyone, including friends, family, customers, employees, etc. Customer accounts on our platform are not permitted to hold digital securities.
In addition to access to the Funding Portal, the Funding Portal provides the following services:
| ● | a fully automated onboarding process; |
| ● | automated filing of required regulatory documents; |
| ● | compliance review; |
| ● | custom-built offering page on our portal website; |
| ● | third party transfer agent and custodial services; |
| ● | email marketing to our proprietary list of investors; |
| ● | rolling closes, which provide potential access to liquidity before final close date of offering; |
| ● | assistance with annual filings; and |
| ● | direct access to our team for ongoing support. |
In addition, we recently announced plans to expand our platform to support offerings of tokenized securities under our existing registration exemptions. We anticipate these tokenized securities will include fractionalized RWAs like real estate, and may be expanded in the future to include other assets.

Consulting Business
Our consulting group, Netcapital Advisors helps companies at all stages to raise capital. Netcapital Advisors provides strategic advice, technology consulting and online marketing services to assist with fundraising campaigns on the Netcapital platform. In the past we also acted as an incubator and accelerator, taking equity stakes in select disruptive start-ups, and we own positions in ten of these Portfolio Companies that we value at approximately $6 million. We have written off our investment in twelve Portfolio Companies and recorded a non-cash loss of more than $19.9 million from our non-cash investment in failed entities. One of these Portfolio Companies was Deuce Drone LLC in which we had an investment/equity interest valued at $2,350,000 Cecilia Lenk, the Chief Executive Officer of Advisors, our wholly owned subsidiary, and a member of our Board of Directors is a member of the board of directors of Deuce Drone LLC. We wrote off the entire value of this investment as of April 30, 2025.
Netcapital Advisors’ services include:
| ● | investor introductions; |
| ● | online marketing; |
| ● | website design, software and software development; |
| ● | message crafting, including pitch decks, offering pages, and ad creation; |
| ● | strategic advice; and |
| ● | technology consulting. |
Broker-Dealer Business
In November 2024, wholly owned subsidiary, Netcapital Securities Inc. received approval from FINRA to become a FINRA-member broker dealer. We believe that by having a registered broker-dealer, it may create opportunities to expand the Company’s revenue base by hosting and generating additional fees from Reg A and Reg D offerings on the Netcapital platform, earning additional fees in connection with offerings that may result from the introduction of clients to other FINRA broker-dealers and expanding our distribution capabilities by leveraging strategic partnerships with other broker-dealers to distribute offerings of issuers that utilize the Netcapital platform to a wider range of investors in order to maximize market penetration and optimize capital raising efforts. Netcapital Securities has been engaged by five issuers seeking to raise capital via a Regulation D offering and one issuer seeking to raise capital via a Regulation A offering.
Industry Regulation
In an effort to enhance economic growth and to democratize access to private investment opportunities, Congress finalized the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) in 2016. Title III of the JOBS Act enabled early-stage companies to offer and sell securities to the general public for the first time. The SEC then adopted Regulation Crowdfunding, or Reg CF, in order to implement the JOBS Act’s crowdfunding provisions.
Reg CF has several important features that changed the landscape for private capital raising and investment. For the first time, this regulation:
| ● | Allowed the general public to invest in private companies, no longer limiting early-stage investment opportunities to less than 10% of the population; |
| ● | Enabled private companies to advertise their securities offerings to the public (general solicitation); and |
| ● | Conditionally exempted securities sold under Section 4(a)(6) from the registration requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. |
The SEC had also adopted rules to implement Section 401 of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act by expanding Reg A into two tiers
| ● | Tier 1, for securities offerings of up to $20 million in a 12-month period; and |
| ● | Tier 2, for securities offerings of up to $75 million in a 12-month period. |
We are subject, both directly and indirectly, to various laws and regulations relating to our business. If any of the laws are amended, compliance could become more expensive and directly affect our income. We intend to comply with such laws, but new restrictions may arise that could materially adversely affect our Company. Specifically, the SEC regulates our funding portal business, and our funding portal is also a member of FINRA and is regulated by FINRA. We are also subject to the USA Patriot Act of 2001, which contains anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws and mandates various regulations applicable to financial services companies, including standards for verifying client identification at account opening, and obligations to monitor client transactions and report suspicious activities. Anti-money laundering laws outside of the United States contain some similar provisions. We are also subject to additional regulation and supervision of the SEC and FINRA, including without limitation Rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Uniform Net Capital Rule). The Uniform Net Capital Rule specifies minimum capital requirements intended to ensure the general financial soundness and liquidity of broker-dealers. The Uniform Net Capital Rule prohibits broker-dealers from paying cash dividends, making unsecured advances or loans or repaying subordinated loans if such payment would result in a net capital amount of less than 5% of aggregate debit balances or less than 120% of its minimum dollar requirement. Our failure to comply with these requirements as applicable to us could have a material adverse effect on us.
On April 30, 2025, we conducted our quarterly evaluation of equity investments under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 321, Investments – Equity Securities. Based on this review, we identified multiple investments that were impaired and recognized a total impairment expense of approximately $17.9 million and we recorded a total impairment expense of approximately $19.9 million in the year ended April 30, 2025. These impairments were based on qualitative indicators including the resignation of key personnel, cessation of operations, regulatory setbacks, failure to file required annual reports, or technological obsolescence, depending on the specific issuer.

Broker-Dealer Regulation
The Exchange Act requires that any person who is acting as a broker or dealer register with the SEC. A broker is defined as “any person engaged in the business of effecting transactions in securities for the account of others,” while a dealer is defined as “any person engaged in the business of buying and selling securities for such person’s own account,” in each case, subject to regulatory exceptions. To facilitate our Reg A business and provide securities-related services to clients, we have a registered broker-dealer, Netcapital Securities. Netcapital Securities has been approved for private placements of securities and referral business. Netcapaital Securities has not been approved for custodies of digital asset securities and thus may not hold or control assets. Netcapital Securities as a registered broker-dealer, is subject to regulation, examination, investigation, and disciplinary action.
Since Netcapital Securities became a broker-dealer, it has been required to comply with extensive SEC regulations with respect to its conduct and the processing of transactions. These include requirements related to conduct, financial responsibility, and other requirements such as those that relate to communications, anti-money laundering (AML) and ongoing internal controls and governance. Netcapital Securities also need to comply with extensive SEC regulations with respect to its conduct and its execution and clearance of transactions.
Conduct Requirements
In general, many of the rules that govern broker-dealers stem from antifraud provisions; these requirements are broad in scope and prohibit misstatements or misleading omissions of material facts, and fraudulent or manipulative acts and practices, in connection with the purchase or sale of securities. Specifically, the following rules apply:
| ● | Section 9(a) prohibits particular manipulative practices regarding securities registered on a national securities exchange. | |
| ● | Section 10(b) prohibits the use of “any manipulative or deceptive device or contrivance” in connection with the purchase or sale of any security. | |
| ● | Section 15(c)(1) prohibits broker-dealers from effecting transactions in, or inducing the purchase or sale of, any security by means of “any manipulative, deceptive or other fraudulent device” in over-the-counter markets. |
Section 15(c)(2) prohibits a broker-dealer from making fictitious quotes in over-the-counter markets
| ● | Antifraud specific requirements include those related to: | |
| ● | Duty of fair dealing (e.g., charging reasonable fees, promptness of executive orders, and disclosing specified material information as well as any conflict of interest); | |
| ● | Regulation Best Interest (e.g., a duty to act in the “best interests” of retail customer (defined as natural persons and their legal representatives), which includes certain disclosure and care obligation and compliance obligations as well as maintaining policies and procedures to minimize the effects, if any, of conflicts of interest); | |
| ● | Duty of best execution (e.g., a duty of execution requires that based on the circumstances requirement to find the most favorable terms for a customer; | |
| ● | Customer confirmation (e.g., at or before the completion of transaction certain information must be provided to customers, including specifics on the sale, the payment that the broker-dealer receives, etc.); | |
| ● | Disclosure of credit terms; | |
| ● | Restrictions on short sales; | |
| ● | Trading during an offering; and | |
| ● | Restrictions on insider trading. |
Finally, broker-dealers are governed by requirements regulating employees and individuals associated with the broker-dealer.
Liability
Under our arrangements that do not use the services of our broker-dealer subsidiary, Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act, which applies to Regulation A, imposes liability for misleading statements not only on the issuers of securities but also on “sellers,” which includes brokers involved in soliciting an offering. Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act generally imposes liability on persons who “make” or disseminate misleading statements. Currently, the information presented on our platform is driven by the issuers. Additional liability may arise from as-yet untested provisions such as Section 9(a)(4) of the Exchange Act, discussed above.
Broker-dealers are subject to heightened standards of liability. Not only do broker-dealers have potential liability under Section 12(a)(2) but we also are subject to liability under Rule 10b-5. Broker-dealers may also be subject to liability for failure to comply with SEC and FINRA requirements, including claims that we can be held liable for the behavior of our agents (control person liability), claims regarding unsuitable recommendations, violations of margin rules, breach of contract, common law claims of fraud and various claims under state laws.

Our Market
The traditional funding model restricts access to capital, investments and liquidity. According to Harvard Business Review, venture capital firms (“VCs”) invest in fewer than 1% of the companies they consider and only 10% of VC meetings are obtained through cold outreach. In addition, only 2% of VC funding went to women-owned firms in 2024, according to PitchBook, while Crunchbase revealed that only 0.4% of startup funding went to black-owned firms.
Furthermore, under the traditional model, the average investor lacked access to early-stage investments. Prior to the JOBS Act, almost 90% of U.S. households were precluded from investing in private deals, per dqydj.com. Liquidity has also been an issue, as private investments are generally locked up until IPO or takeout.
The JOBS Act helped provide a solution to these issues by establishing the funding portal industry, which is currently in its infancy. Title III of the JOBS Act outlines Reg CF, which traditionally allowed private companies to raise up to $1.07 million. In March 2021, regulatory enhancements by the SEC went into effect and increased the limit to $5 million. These amendments increased the offering limits for Reg CF, Reg A and Regulation D, Rule 504 offerings as follows: Reg CF increased to $5 million; Regulation D, Rule 504 increased to $10 million from $5 million; and Reg A Tier 2 increased to $75 million from $50 million.
According to KingsCrowd, the 2021 increase in offering limits has served to boost the attractiveness of Reg CF to later stage issuers. While the previous $1 million cap on annual funding was perceived as too restrictive for capital-intensive companies, $5 million every twelve months can be a viable alternative for companies post seed stage.
Reg CF funding grew from $74.8 million in 2018 to $343.6 million in 2024, an increase of 360%, according to KingsCrowd. Although funding was down from its 2021 peak of $496.1 million, the number of Reg CF raises reached a new high in the final month of 2024 to 569 offerings, above the previous high in March 2022 of 561. The average investment size also increased by 26% in 2024 to $1,500 from $1,190 in the previous year. We believe a significant opportunity exists to disrupt private capital markets via the Netcapital funding portal.
Reg A+ offerings raised $244 million in 2024, an increase of 7.5% from the previous year, according to KingsCrowd. While 61 offerings closed during the year, 34 new offerings were launched. $2 million was the 2024 median Reg A+ raise, while the average raise was $7.7 million. We plan to support Reg A+ raises through our broker-dealer subsidiary, Netcapital Securities.
Our Technology
The Netcapital platform is a scalable, real-time, transaction-processing engine that runs without human intervention, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
For companies raising capital, the technology provides fully automated onboarding with integrated regulatory filings. Funds are collected from investors and held in escrow until the offering closes. For entrepreneurs, the technology facilitates access to capital at low cost. For investors, the platform provides access to investments in private, early-stage companies that were previously unavailable to the general public. Both entrepreneurs and investors can track and view their investments through their dashboard on netcapital.com. The platform currently has more than 100,000 users.
Scalability was demonstrated in November 2021, when the platform processed more than 2,000 investments in less than two hours, totaling more than $2 million.
Our infrastructure is designed in a way that can horizontally scale to meet our capacity needs. Using Docker containers and Amazon Elastic Container Service, or Amazon ECS, we are able to automate the creation and launch of our production web and application programming interface, or API, endpoints in order to replicate them as needed behind Elastic Load Balancers (ELBs).
| 5 |
Additionally, all of our public facing endpoints live behind CloudFlare to ensure protection from large scale traffic fluctuations (including DDoS attacks).
Our main database layer is built on Amazon RDS and features a Multi-AZ deployment that can also be easily scaled up or down as needed. General queries are cached in our API layer, and we monitor to optimize very complex database queries that are generated by the API. Additionally, we cache the most complex queries (such as analytics data) in our NoSQL (Mongo) data store for improved performance.
Most of our central processing unit, or CPU, intensive data processing happens asynchronously through a worker/jobs system managed by AWS ElastiCache’s Redis endpoint. This component can be easily fine-tuned for any scale necessary.
The technology necessary to operate our funding portal is licensed from Netcapital Systems LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, of which Jason Frishman, Netcapital Founder, owns a 29% interest, under a license agreement with the Funding Portal. Payments under the licensing agreement amounted to $95,000 and $195,000 in the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
In June 2025, we entered into a Horizon Software Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Horizon Globex GmbH, a company incorporated in Switzerland (“Horizon”) pursuant to which Horizon granted the Company a royalty free, paid-up, non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, unrestricted license to use the Licensed Software (as defined in the Agreement) with the Company’s branding and image, in the United States to provide capital-raising and secondary trading services to its clients.
In December 2025, we acquired substantially all of Rivetz Corp.’s assets related to its “Rivetz Network” which develops technology combining hardware-based cybersecurity with blockchain services for mobile and other computing devices.
In January 2026, we acquired substantially assets from Iverson Designs that primarily relate to its digital design studio business, including assets which facilitate providing creative services including graphic design, motion graphics, 2D/3D animation, visual effects, and related design and visualization services that incorporate AI-driven design methods.
Proposed Alternative Trading (“ATS”) Relationship
We believe that lack of liquidity is a key issue for investors in private companies in our targeted market. We also recognize that secondary trading of securities in private companies is subject to extensive regulation and oversight. Such regulation and oversight includes, but is not limited to, the need to be a registered broker-dealer that is licensed to operate an ATS, or to partner with an entity that is licensed to do so. In order to try to address what we believe is a large, unmet need, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Netcapital Systems LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Netcapital UT LLC”), entered into a software license and services agreement on January 2, 2023 (the “Templum License Agreement”) with Templum Markets LLC (“Templum”), to provide issuers and investors on the Netcapital platform with the potential for greater distribution and liquidity. We were never able to establish a formal ATS under the Templum License Agreement and accordingly in September 2025, we terminated our relationships and agreements with Templum. Although we do not currently operate or maintain a secondary market for securities of any issuers, and we have no agreements or understandings with any parties to do so, we are, nevertheless, exploring various alternatives to provide issuers and investors on the Netcapital funding portal with the potential for greater distribution and liquidity, for secondary offerings, including engaging a broker dealer that operates an ATS. We believe that such a partnership, if established, could help provide issuers and shareholders with more liquidity for their securities.
Our Netcapital funding portal is currently registered with the SEC and is a member of FINRA. For so long as we continue to operate our Netcapital platform solely for primary offerings by issuers under Reg CF, we believe that we are not required to register under Regulation ATS.
Competitive Advantages
Based upon publicly available information either published on the websites of our peer group (StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc., Wefunder Inc. and Republic Core LLC) or included in offering statements of issuers hosted on such offering platforms, we believe that we provide the lowest cost solution for online capital raising. We also believe, based upon our facilitated technology platforms, our strong emphasis on customer support, and feedback received from clients that have onboarded to our platform, that our access and onboarding of new clients are superior due to our facilitated technology platforms. Our network continues to rapidly expand as a result of our enhanced marketing and broad distribution to reach new investors. In addition, we believe our recent expansion to allow tokenized securities to be offering by issuers on our funding portal could increase investor interest in offerings on our funding portal.
Our competitors include StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc., Wefunder Inc. and Republic Core LLC. Given the rapid growth in the industry and its potential to disrupt the multi-billion dollar private capital market, we believe there is sufficient room for multiple players.
Our Strategy
Two major tailwinds are driving accelerated growth in the shift to the use of online funding portals: (i) the COVID-19 pandemic; and (ii) the increase in funding limits under Reg CF. The pandemic drove a rapid need to bring as many processes as possible online. With travel restrictions in place and most people in lockdown, entrepreneurs were no longer able to fundraise in person and have increasingly turned to online capital raising through funding portals.
| 6 |
There are numerous industry drivers and tailwinds that complement investor demand for access to investments in private companies. To capitalize on these, our strategy is to:
| ● | Generate New Investor Accounts. Growing the number of investor accounts on our platform is a top priority. Investment dollars continuing to flow through our platform is a key revenue driver. When issuers advertise their offerings, they are generating new investor accounts for us at no cost to Netcapital. We plan to supplement our issuers’ spend on advertising by increasing our online marketing spend as well, which may include virtual conferences going forward. |
| ● | Hire Additional Business Development Staff. We seek to hire additional business development staff to generate new crowdfunding clients and other issuers of securities on our platform. |
| ● | Increase the Number of Companies on Our Platform via Marketing. When a new company lists on our platform, they bring their customers, supporters, and brand ambassadors as new investors to Netcapital. We plan to increase our marketing budget to help grow our portal clients. Our marketing will also emphasize our recent expansion of allowing issuers to offer tokenized securities on our platform. |
| ● | Invest in Technology. Technology is critical to everything that we do. We plan to invest in developing innovative technologies that enhance our platform and allow us to pursue additional service offerings. Our recent acquisitions of blockchain related assets has allowed us to expand our platform and we now allow issuers to offer tokenized securities on our funding portal. We believe investors will find these offerings attractive as tokenization fractional ownership and secondary trading on blockchain exchanges, allowing investors to buy/sell shares instantly without traditional brokers. Although we do not currently offer secondary trading, the perceived liquidity of these assets on blockchain exchanges could increase interest in the offerings on the funding portal. |
| ● | Accelerate Our Advisory Portfolio Clients. Although we wrote off investments of twelve of our Advisory Portfolio Clients in which we held equity interests as of April 30, 2025, we still have equity interests in ten of these Advisory Portfolio Clients that we value at approximately $6 million. These Advisory Portfolio Clients and our equity interests in such clients represent potential upside for our shareholders. We will conduct quarterly review of our equity investments in accordance with ASC 321 and we may need to impair some or all of our remaining equity interests in the future. We seek to assist our advisory clients. |
| ● | Expand Internationally. We believe there is a significant opportunity to expand into Europe and Asia as an appetite abroad grows for U.S. stocks. |
| ● | Provide a secondary trading feature. We believe that lack of liquidity is a key issue for investors in private companies in our targeted market. Accordingly, we are exploring ways in which we can provide our clients with the ability to access a secondary trading feature. In January 2023, we entered into the Templum License Agreement to provide issuers and investors on the Netcapital platform with the potential for greater distribution and liquidity. We were never able to establish a formal ATS under the Templum License Agreement and accordingly in September 2025, we terminated our relationships and agreements with Templum. Although we do not currently operate or maintain a secondary market for securities of any issuers, and we have no agreements or understandings with any parties to do so, we are, nevertheless, exploring various alternatives to provide issuers and investors on the Netcapital funding portal with the potential for greater distribution and liquidity, for secondary offerings, including engaging a broker dealer that operates an ATS. We believe that such a partnership, if established, would also ultimately increase demand and share prices. |
| ● | New Verticals Represent a Compelling Opportunity. We operate in a regulated market supported by the JOBS Act. Our model to include Regulation A and Regulation D offerings and was recently expanded to allow issuers to offer tokenized securities on our platform. |
| ● | Broker-Dealer License. In November 2024, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Netcapital Securities Inc. received approval to become a FINRA-member broker dealer. We believe that by having a registered broker-dealer, it may create opportunities to expand the Company’s revenue base by hosting and generating additional fees from Reg A and Reg D offerings on the Netcapital platform, earning additional fees in connection with offerings that may result from the introduction of clients to other FINRA broker-dealers and expanding our distribution capabilities by leveraging strategic partnerships with other broker-dealers to distribute offerings of issuers that utilize the Netcapital platform to a wider range of investors in order to maximize market penetration and optimize capital raising efforts. |
| ● | Expand Internationally. We believe there is a significant opportunity to expand into Europe and Asia as an appetite abroad grows for U.S. stocks. |

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company
We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced reporting requirements in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.
| 8 |
We are a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates plus the proposed aggregate amount of gross proceeds to us as a result of this offering is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company after this offering if either (i) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. As a smaller reporting company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.
Recent Developments
Plans to Expand Platform
On November 19, 2025, the Company announced plans to expand its platform to include support for compliant blockchain-based digital assets, amid accelerating interest in tokenized securities and tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) like real estate.
Rivetz Asset Purchase
On December 3, 2025, we purchased substantially all of Rivetz Corp.’s (“Rivetz”) assets related to its “Rivetz Network” which develops technology combining hardware-based cybersecurity with blockchain services for mobile and other computing devices pursuant to an asset purchase agreement for 950,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share.
While we believe the Rivetz Network assets and related technology may enhance our ability to support offerings of tokenized securities under existing registration exemptions, we expect that generating revenues from these capabilities will require additional development, integration, compliance and commercialization efforts. These efforts may require additional financial resources, including funding for personnel, technology development, third-party service providers, and legal and regulatory compliance. We may seek additional capital to fund these efforts and there can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, or that we will generate revenues from these capabilities.
Kay Resignation and Separation Agreement
On December 3, 2025, Martin Kay resigned as our Chief Executive Officer, director and all other officer, director, board and committee positions with us.
Appointment of Chief Executive Officer and General Counsel
On December 7, 2025, we appointed Rich Wheeless as our Chief Executive Officer and Kevin Kilduff as our General Counsel.

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks described below, together with other information in this prospectus, the accompanying prospectus and the information and documents incorporated by reference. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and the subsequent reports that we file with the SEC which are on file with the SEC and are incorporated herein by reference, and which may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be adversely effected. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently see as immaterial, may also harm our business. Please also read carefully the section above entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Risks Related to our Financial Position
We recently recognized impairments totaling $19.9 million to the value of several of our portfolio company investments. If we are required to impair the value of additional portfolio companies in the future, it could have a material adverse affect our financial condition and result of operations.
On April 30, 2025, we conducted its quarterly evaluation of equity investments under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 321, Investments – Equity Securities. Based on this review, we identified multiple investments that were impaired and recognized a total impairment expense of approximately $17.9 million and we recorded a total impairment expense of approximately $19.9 million in the year ended April 30, 2025. These impairments were based on qualitative indicators including the resignation of key personnel, cessation of operations, regulatory setbacks, failure to file required annual reports, or technological obsolescence, depending on the specific issuer. If we are required to impair the value of additional portfolio companies in the future, it could have a material adverse affect our financial condition and result of operations.
Fluctuations in the Fair Value of Our Portfolio Company Investments Could Cause Significant Volatility in Our Financial Results and May Not Be Indicative of Operating Performance.
We hold minority equity interests in companies, that were received as consideration for services, including equity securities received by our funding portal as a 1% equity fee from issuers that raise capital on our platform. These equity interests are generally illiquid, represent minority positions in early-stage companies, and are not traded on active public markets. Under U.S. GAAP, we measure these securities at fair value based on observable transaction prices when available, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
As of October 31, 2025, we owned equity interests in a total of 87 companies. Of these investments, 12 equity securities were determined to be impaired and carried at a fair value of $0. The remaining equity securities had an aggregate fair value of $5,856,700, including $278,440 attributable to issuers that paid a 1% equity fee to the funding portal.
The fair value of these investments may fluctuate materially from period to period due to changes in observable prices, issuer-specific developments, market conditions, and the limited nature of observable transactions for many of these securities. Because many of these investments lack active markets, the prices used to determine fair value may not reflect the amounts we could realize in an actual sale, if any, and declines in fair value could require us to recognize additional losses that materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
We recently stopped taking equity from portfolio clients, and if we are unable to replace the revenues generated by taking equity in select portfolio clients, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations
We recently stopped taking equity positions in select portfolio clients. We generated $3,440,000 in revenues from consulting services for equity securities in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024 as compared to $0 in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025. We have focused on online revenue products in fiscal 2025 and will continue to do so in fiscal 2026. However, if we are unable to replace the revenue we received from taking equity in select portfolio clients, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
We have experienced net losses in every fiscal period since July 31, 2023. We cannot assure you that we can or will be able to operate profitably.
We have incurred net losses in every fiscal period since July 31, 2023. During the six months ended October 31, 2025 and the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, we incurred net losses of approximately $5.8 million, $28.3 million and $4.98 million, respectively, on a consolidated basis. There can be no assurance that we will not continue to incur net losses in the future. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to become and remain profitable would depress our value and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, or even continue our operations.
Risks Related to our Business
Regulatory and legal uncertainties could harm our business.
From time to time, we may become involved in litigation or regulatory proceedings the ordinary course of our business, including litigation or regulatory proceedings that could be material to our business.
In addition, the securities industry is highly regulated and many aspects of our business involve substantial risk of liability. In past years, there has been an increasing incidence of litigation involving the securities industry, including class action suits that generally seek substantial damages, including in some cases punitive damages. Compliance problems that are reported to federal, state and provincial regulators, exchanges or other self-regulatory organizations by dissatisfied customers are investigated by such regulatory bodies, and, if pursued by such regulatory body or such customers, may rise to the level of arbitration or disciplinary action. We are also subject to periodic regulatory audits and inspections for various federal, self-regulatory and state regulators. Any such audits and inspections could require significant amounts of management time, result in the diversion of significant operational resources, require us to change our business practices or products, result in sanctions being levied against us, including fines and censures, suspension or expulsion from a certain jurisdiction or market or the revocation or limitation of licenses, result in negative publicity, or otherwise harm our business and financial results.
Pending Regulatory Inquiries
Our businesses are heavily regulated by state and federal regulatory agencies as well as the Securities & Exchange Commission, the Nasdaq Stock Market and FINRA. In the current era of heightened regulatory scrutiny of financial institutions, we have incurred increased legal and compliance costs, along with the industry as a whole. Increased regulation also creates increased barriers to entry.
We receive many regulatory inquiries each year in addition to being subject to frequent regulatory examinations. The great majority of these inquiries do not lead to fines or any further action against us. We are routinely the subject of regulatory inquiries regarding subjects including, but not limited to: anti-money laundering, compliance, registration, record-keeping, disclosure and other topics of recent regulatory interest. We have procedures for evaluating whether potential regulatory fines are probable, estimable and material and for updating its contingency reserves and disclosures accordingly. In the current climate, we expect that we may, from time to time, be subject to regulatory fines on various topics on an ongoing basis, as other regulated financial services businesses do. The amount of any fines, or operating restrictions on any or all of our licensed operations, and when and if they will be incurred, typically is impossible to predict given the nature of the regulatory process, and the cost of responding to such inquiries and matters can be significant.
An adverse proceeding or settlement as a result of regulatory inquiries could result in our with the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule, which specifies minimum capital requirements intended to ensure general financial soundness and adequate liquidity Our failure to maintain the required net capital levels and protect customer assets could potentially result in immediate suspension of securities activities, suspension or expulsion by the SEC or FINRA, restrictions on our ability to expand our existing business or to commence new businesses, and could ultimately lead to the liquidation of our broker-dealer entity and winding down of our broker-dealer business. In addition, adverse proceeding or settlement as a result of regulatory inquiries could result in the loss of our registration as a funding portal at which point we would not be able to help issuers raise capital online which could have a material adverse effect on our bsuiness.

We operate in a highly regulated industry.
We are subject to extensive regulation and failure to comply with such regulation could have an adverse effect on our business. Further, our subsidiary Netcapital Funding Portal, Inc. is registered as a funding portal; and our subsidiary Netcapital Securities is registered as a broker-dealer. As a funding portal and broker-dealer, we have to comply with stringent regulations, and the operation of our funding portal and broker-dealer services exposes us to a significant amount of liability. Furthermore, new lines of business may subject us to other regulatory regimes, such those regulating investment advisers, including the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, if we fail to remain in compliance with certain exemptions. Further we have seen increased regulations in this industry from regulators (both federal and state) and FINRA.
We may be liable for misstatements made by issuers.
Under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, issuers making offerings through our funding portal may be liable for including untrue statements of material facts or for omitting information that could make the statements misleading. This liability may also extend in Regulation Crowdfunding offerings to funding portals, such as our subsidiary. Further, as a broker-dealer, we may be liable for statements by issuers utilizing our services in connection with Regulation A and Regulation D offerings. Even though due diligence defenses may be available; there can be no assurance that if we were sued we would prevail. Further, even if we do succeed, lawsuits are time consuming and expensive, and being a party to such actions may cause us reputational harm that would negatively impact our business. Moreover, even if we are not liable or a party to a lawsuit or enforcement action, some of our clients have been and will be subject to such proceedings. Any involvement we may have, including responding to document production requests, may be time-consuming and expensive as well.
The market and regulatory framework for tokenized securities and RWAs are nascent and subject to rapid change.
The markets for tokenized securities and RWAs are in the early stages of development and remain subject to considerable uncertainty in terms of market structure, liquidity, and regulation. Blockchain-based trading venues and decentralized exchanges may offer significantly less liquidity, transparency, and regulatory oversight compared to national securities exchanges. This could lead to fragmented markets, inefficient price discovery, and persistent pricing disparities between tokenized and traditional securities.
In addition, the legal and regulatory treatment of tokenized securities and RWAs continues to evolve. U.S. federal and state regulators, as well as international authorities, have provided limited and sometimes incomplete guidance. For example, the SEC has stated that tokenized securities are subject to existing securities laws, while other agencies, such as the CFTC, are still evaluating potential frameworks for digital asset tokenization. In addition, the U.S. Congress continues to consider, but has not yet enacted, proposed legislation that could include provisions that would impact the legal constructs around the tokenization of securities and RWAs inside the United States.
This uncertainty creates regulatory and compliance risk, as future rulemaking, enforcement actions, or shifts in interpretation could impose new obligations or restrictions on our operations, products, or counterparties. It also creates operational risk, as the successful tokenization and trading of tokenized securities and RWAs depend on reliable systems for custody, valuation, and disclosure. Any regulatory change, operational failure, or loss of market confidence could materially and adversely affect our ability to issue or facilitate trading in tokenized securities and RWAs.
Risks Related to our Broker-Dealer Business
If we do not maintain the net capital levels required by regulators, our broker-dealer business may be restricted and we may be fined or subject to other disciplinary or corrective actions.
The SEC, FINRA, and various state regulators have stringent rules with respect to the maintenance of specific levels of net capital by securities broker-dealers. For example, our broker dealer is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule, which specifies minimum capital requirements intended to ensure general financial soundness and adequate liquidity. Our failure to maintain the required net capital levels and protect customer assets could potentially result in immediate suspension of securities activities, suspension or expulsion by the SEC or FINRA, restrictions on our ability to expand our existing business or to commence new businesses, and could ultimately lead to the liquidation of our broker-dealer entities and winding down of our broker-dealer business. If such net capital rules are changed or expanded, if there is an unusually large charge against net capital, or if we make changes in our business operations that increase our capital requirements, capital-intensive operations could be limited. A large operating loss or charge against net capital could adversely affect our ability to maintain or expand our business.
Risks Related to Tokenization and our Services
The market for securities and real-world asset tokenization is highly competitive and fragmented.
The market for tokenization of securities and RWAs is highly competitive, rapidly evolving, and fragmented. Numerous established financial institutions, fintech companies, and emerging blockchain platforms are seeking to develop and commercialize tokenization products and services. While we believe our technology, experienced personnel, and reputation with customers provide competitive advantages, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve or maintain the market position we anticipate. Some of our competitors currently or may in the future have significantly greater financial, technical, and marketing resources, broader customer bases, and longer operating histories. As competition intensifies, we may be required to increase expenditures on research and development, marketing, or incentives, which could adversely affect our profitability. If we are unable to differentiate our offerings or maintain customer confidence in our platform, our growth prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Tokenization of securities and RWAs involves novel technological, operational, and cybersecurity risks.
Our efforts to tokenize securities and RWAs rely on emerging technologies that are untested at scale and subject to significant uncertainty. These activities expose us to risks including technological and operational risk, as blockchain networks, smart contracts, and related infrastructure may fail, contain errors, or become obsolete; (iii) cybersecurity and fraud risk, as tokenized assets and underlying blockchains may be targeted by malicious actors, subject to vulnerabilities, or used in connection with illicit activity; and (iv) valuation and volatility risk, as tokenized securities and RWAs may not maintain or increase in value and may be difficult to price accurately.
Transaction fees, network congestion, or failures in smart contract code could also impair our ability to support tokenized securities and RWAs. Any such technological or operational failures could lead to financial losses, customer disputes, or reputational damage, and could materially and adversely affect our business and prospects
Risks Related to the Resale of the Shares
The Selling Shareholders may choose to sell the Shares at prices below the current market price.
The Selling Shareholders are not restricted as to the prices at which they may sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares covered by this prospectus. Sales or other dispositions of the Shares below the then-current market prices could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.
A large number of shares of Common Stock may be sold in the market following this offering, which may significantly depress the market price of our Common Stock.
The Shares sold in the offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. As a result, a substantial number of shares of Common Stock may be sold in the public market following this offering. If there are significantly more shares of Common Stock offered for sale than buyers are willing to purchase, then the market price of our Common Stock may decline to a market price at which buyers are willing to purchase the offered Common Stock and sellers remain willing to sell Common Stock.
Neither we nor the Selling Shareholders have authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering.
You should carefully evaluate all of the information in this prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. We may receive media coverage regarding our Company, including coverage that is not directly attributable to statements made by our officers, that incorrectly reports on statements made by our officers or employees, or that is misleading as a result of omitting information provided by us, our officers or employees. Neither we nor the Selling Shareholders have authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering, and recipients should not rely on this information.
You may experience future dilution as a result of issuance of the Shares, future equity offerings by us and other issuances of our Common Stock or other securities. In addition, the issuance of the Shares and future equity offerings and other issuances of our Common Stock or other securities may adversely affect our Common Stock price.
In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Common Stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share as prior issuances of Common Stock. We may not be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share previously paid by investors, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the prices per share per share. ln addition, the exercise price of the Warrants for the Warrant Shares may be or greater than the price per share previously paid by certain investors. You will incur dilution upon exercise of any outstanding stock options, warrants or upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock under our stock incentive programs. In addition, the issuance of the Shares and any future sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the price of our Common Stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of Common Stock or the availability of those shares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock.

The Shares being offered by the Selling Shareholders are the June 2025 Shares and those issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the June 2025 Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares, see “June 2025 Private Placement,” “January 2025 Warrant Inducement.” March 2025 Warrant Inducement,” “July 2025 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement. #1” and “July 2025 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement. #2” beginning on page 15. We are registering the June 2025 Shares and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in order to permit the Selling Shareholders to offer such shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the June 2025 Shares and the Warrants, none of the Selling Shareholders have had any material relationship with us within the past three (3) years except as set forth below.
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to each Selling Shareholder, including (i) the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder prior to this offering, (ii) the number of Shares, being offered by the Selling Shareholder pursuant to this prospectus and (iii) the Selling Shareholder’s beneficial ownership after completion of this offering. The second column lists the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder, based on its ownership of the shares of our securities, as of February 2, 2026, assuming full exercise of all Warrants held by the selling stockholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercise. The registration of the Shares, including the June 2025 Share and the Shares issuable to the Selling Shareholders upon the exercise of the Warrants, does not necessarily mean that the Selling Shareholders will sell all or any of such shares, but the number of shares of Common Stock and percentages set forth in the final two columns below assume that all shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders are sold. The final two columns also assume the exercise of all of the Warrants held by the Selling Shareholders as of February 2, 2026, without regard to any limitations on exercise described in this prospectus or in the Warrants. See “Plan of Distribution.”
The table is based on information supplied to us by the Selling Shareholders, with beneficial ownership and percentage ownership determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to shares of Common Stock. This information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. In computing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Selling Shareholder and the percentage ownership of that Selling Shareholder, shares of Common Stock subject to warrants held by that Selling Shareholder that are exercisable for shares of Common Stock within 60 days after February 2, 2026, are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other stockholder.
This prospectus covers the resale of up to an aggregate of 1,879,090 shares of Common Stock, consisting of: (A) 118,750 June 2025 Shares and (B) up to 1,760,340 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of: (i) 114,068 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the A-5 Warrants; (ii) 9,144 shares of Common Stock issuance upon exercise of the A-6 Warrants; (iii) 20,315 shares of Common Stock issuance upon exercise of the January 2025 Placement Agent Warrants; (iv) 79,558 shares of Common Stock issuance upon exercise of the A-7 Warrants; (v) 79,558 shares of Common Stock issuance upon exercise of the A-8 Warrants; (vi) 714,286 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the July 2025 Investor Warrants #1; (vii) 53,571 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the July 2025 Placement Agent Warrants #1; (viii) 641,712 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the July 2025 Investor Warrants #2; (ix) 48,128 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the July 2025 Placement Agent Warrants #2. See “June 2025 Private Placement,” “January 2025 Warrant Inducement,” “March 2025 Warrant Inducement,” “July 2025 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement. #1” and “July 2025 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement. #2” beginning on page 15. “July 2025 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement #1” and “July 2025 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement #2” beginning on page 15 of this prospectus for further details relating to the June 2025 Shares, the Warrant Shares and the Warrants.

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus. We may receive up to approximately $9.21 million in aggregate gross proceeds from cash exercises of the Warrants, based on the per share exercise price of the Warrants. We intend to use any net proceeds we receive for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including investments in sales and marketing in the United States and internationally. We have not allocated specific amounts of net proceeds for any of these purposes.
The Selling Shareholders will pay any agent’s commissions and expenses they incur for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses that they incur in disposing of the shares of Common Stock. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. These may include, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws.
We cannot predict when or if the Warrants will be exercised, and it is possible that the Warrants may expire and never be exercised. In addition, the Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis after six (6) months from the date of issuance if at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for, the issuance of the Shares. As a result, we may never receive meaningful, or any, cash proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants, and we cannot plan on any specific uses of any proceeds we may receive beyond the purposes described herein.
See “Plan of Distribution” elsewhere in this prospectus for more information.
We have never declared or paid any dividends on our Common Stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for the operation and expansion of our business and, therefore, we do not anticipate declaring or paying dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board and will depend on our results of operations, capital requirements, financial condition, prospects, contractual arrangements, any limitations on payment of dividends present in our future debt agreements, and other factors that our Board may deem relevant.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The percentage ownership information is based upon 7,847,899 common shares outstanding as of February 2, 2026. The percentage ownership information shown in the table after this offering is based upon 9,608,239 shares of Common Stock (assuming full exercise of the Warrants to purchase 1,760,340 Warrant Shares). Information with respect to beneficial ownership has been furnished by each director, officer or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock. 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. In addition, the rules attribute beneficial ownership of securities as of a particular date to persons who hold convertible preferred stock, options or warrants to purchase shares of common stock and that are exercisable within 60 days of such date, which in this case is April 1, 2026. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding those convertible preferred stock, options or warrants 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. Except as otherwise indicated, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned, subject to community property laws, where applicable.

For a description of our Common Stock, Exhibit 4.17-Description of Securities, to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on August 12, 2025.

Our Board may establish the rights and preferences of the preferred stock from time to time.
The Selling Shareholders and any of their respective pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on any trading market, stock exchange or other trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
| ● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; | |
| ● | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; | |

| ● | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; | |
| ● | a combination of any such methods of sale; or | |
| ● | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
In connection with the sale of the securities covered hereby, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in tum engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in tum may sell these securities. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. We are requesting that each Selling Shareholder inform us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. We will pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the securities.
Because the Selling Shareholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. We are requesting that each Selling Shareholder confirm that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the Selling Shareholder.
We intend to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Shareholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Shareholders and are informing the Selling Shareholders of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
The validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Parr Brown Gee & Loveless, PC, Salt Lake City, Utah.
The consolidated financial statements of Netcapital Inc. as of April 30, 2025 and 2024 and for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2025, incorporated into this prospectus and the Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 of which it forms a part by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2025, have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of Fruci & Associates II, PLLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.

| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of the securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and | |

| (2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; |
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering; |
| (4) | That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to any purchaser: |
| (i) | Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424 (b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in this registration statement; and | |
| (ii) | Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(l)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; |
| II-5 |
| (5) | That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |
| (i) | Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; | |
| (ii) | Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; | |

| (7) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its 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 of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott, LLC (the “Firm”) may be required by law to provide you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign, Inc. (DocuSign) electronic signing system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly and, if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign system
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after a signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign signer account, you may access them for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents, you may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format first, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must withdraw your consent by selecting ‘Decline to Sign’ on the signing page of a DocuSign envelope instead of signing it and, on the subsequent page, select the check box indicating you wish to withdraw your consent. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign documents from us electronically.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide to you all required notices, disclosures, authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made available to you during the course of our relationship with you electronically through the DocuSign system. To reduce the chance of you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as described below.

To request paper copies from Eckert Seamans
To request delivery of paper copies of the notices and disclosures previously provided by us to you electronically, you must send us an e-mail to E-sign@eckertseamans.com and, in the body of such request, you must state your e-mail address, full name, US Postal address, and telephone number. We will bill you for any fees at that time, if any.
To withdraw your consent with Eckert Seamans
To inform us that you no longer wish to receive future notices and disclosures in electronic format you may:
i. decline to sign a document from within your DocuSign session and, on the subsequent page, select the check box indicating you wish to withdraw your consent; or
ii. send us an e-mail to E-sign@eckertseamans.com and, in the body of such request, you must state your e-mail, full name, US Postal Address, and telephone number. We do not need any other information from you to withdraw consent. The consequences of your withdrawing consent for online documents will be that transactions may take a longer time to process.
