Effect of General Economic Conditions on our Business
The state of the general economy significantly affects our SEO business. During economic recoveries and stable periods, entrepreneurs are more willing to invest in enhancing their online presence. A strong economy makes it easier for them to justify this investment, resulting in increased demand for our SEO services. In contrast, economic downturns may lead to reduced demand as businesses tighten their budgets. Therefore, the economic environment plays a pivotal role in determining the demand for our services.
Regulation
Our activities are subject to a number of federal, state, and international laws and regulations governing online platforms and mobile devices. These laws cover areas such as privacy, user data protection (including the collection of data from minors), online and mobile content, advertising, marketing activities, and anti-corruption measures.
5
We recognize the dynamic nature of the regulatory environment in the online platform and mobile device sector and are committed to fully complying with all applicable laws and regulations governing our industry.
Employees

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
As a Smaller Reporting Company, the company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item 1A. Risk Factors. Despite the fact that we are not required to provide risk factors, we consider the following factors to be risks to our continued growth and development:
| · | The company faces high risks due to the rapidly evolving market and competition. |
| · | Market Acceptance: Failure to achieve broad market acceptance and adoption of solutions across various environments, which is essential for generating revenue. |
| · | Competition: Difficulty in effectively addressing competition from emerging technologies and alternative solutions. |
| · | Capital Shortfall: The uncertainty and potentially high cost of obtaining the necessary additional capital required to implement the business plan. |
| · | Operational Challenges. The business structure introduces difficulty in forecasting revenue. |
| · | Unpredictable Sales Cycles: The long and unpredictable evaluation/sales cycles inherent in the business make it challenging to forecast operational outcomes and the timing of revenue recognition, especially when economic downturns impact customers. |
| · | Our capacity to engage in significant research and development endeavors is constrained due to our financial limitations, potentially obstructing our future growth potential. |
6
StageWise Strategies operates in a dynamic and rapidly evolving market, and we cannot guarantee the sustained success of our business or the execution of our business plan.
Our strategic approach and solutions are part of a continuously evolving landscape, and the markets in which we operate, specifically in the Online Marketing or Digital Advertising industry, are subject to rapid change. Consequently, we must assess our prospects in light of the challenges, costs, and complexities frequently encountered by emerging companies in such swiftly evolving markets.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The Company’s Financial Statements required by Item 8, together with the reports thereon of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm are set forth on pages 17 through 28 of this report and are incorporated by reference in this Item 8.
ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
We have had no changes in or disagreements with our independent registered public accountant.
ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures
The company is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
10
An assessment was conducted with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025.
Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (ICFR), defined as a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP.
We acknowledge that inherent limitations exist in any control system. Under the guidance of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of its ICFR as of September 30, 2025, using the criteria established in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO - 2013").
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that introduces a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the financial statements could occur and not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Based on our assessment as of September 30, 2025, the following control deficiencies collectively constitute material weaknesses:
1) Ineffective Control Environment and Inadequate Documentation
Due to the Company's size and structure, the control environment lacks necessary formality. This affects multiple components of the COSO framework, including insufficient control activities, the absence of a formal risk assessment process, and inadequate monitoring controls.
Remediation Plan: Establish a process for documenting all business processes to strengthen the control environment.
2) Resource Constraints and Lack of Segregation of Duties
The company has only two employees, which hinders effective segregation of duties and independent audits. Furthermore, we recognize the need to attract additional staff with greater knowledge and experience in US GAAP and SEC reporting. The Board of Directors, which serves as the Audit Committee, currently lacks a member independent of management.
3) Deficiency in General Information Technology Controls.
The Company lacks formal, documented General Information Technology Controls essential for data integrity and availability. This includes the absence of procedures for regular, automated, off-site data backups and robust IT security controls to prevent unauthorized changes to financial data.
11
Remediation Plan: We are committed to implementing a formal IT control structure in 2026, which includes:
-Adopting an automated, cloud-based data backup solution with a defined retention schedule.
-Enhancing system security through more granular access restrictions, mandatory user authentication, and detailed change tracking/logging.
The identified control deficiencies result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Consequently, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025, based on the COSO criteria.
Despite these material weaknesses, management confirms that the Company’s financial statements included in this filing are fairly presented, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company as of the dates and for the periods presented, in conformity with US GAAP.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the year ended September 30, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors
Stagewise Strategies Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Stagewise Strategies Corp. (the "Company") as of September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, the related statements of operations, statements of cash flows and statement changes in stockholders' deficit, from inception to the period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows from inception to the period ended September 30, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern Uncertainty
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $112,364 and a negative cash flow from operations amounting to $74,758 from inception to the period ended September 30, 2025. These factors as discussed in Note 3 of the financial statements raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the financial statements, the
Company had generated $
The Company's capacity to operate as a going concern is reliant on its ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or secure the required funding to meet its obligations and settle liabilities resulting from standard business operations when they become due. Management plans to increase sales but is prepared to finance operating expenses, if necessary, from cash on hand, as well as loans from directors and/or private placements of common stock.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Management of the Company is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies and the appropriateness of accounting policies and their application. Critical accounting policies and practices are those that are both most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results and require managementÕs most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s significant and critical accounting policies and practices are disclosed below as required by generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company has adopted a September 30 fiscal year-end.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of Current Assets in the form of intangible assets and Current Liabilities in the form of Related Party Loan. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.
24
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As September 30, 2025 the Company had cash equivalents in total $4,573.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include (a) affiliates of the Company; (b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) principal owners of the Company; (e) management of the Company; (f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
Revenue
In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is measured based on a consideration specified with a customer and recognized when we satisfy the performance obligation specified with a customer. The Company is providing API subscriptions on identifying and analyzing keywords for search engine optimization purposes.
For the year ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated total revenue of $95,409 and $9,007, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025 and 2024 the Company
reported deferred revenue of $
Accounts receivable was $
25
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent share arrangements, stock options and warrants.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management has evaluated all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these financial statements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
