| Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition |
On July 1, 2025, Aeries Technology, Inc. (the “Registrant”) filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. In the Form 12b-25, the Registrant disclosed the following information regarding the results of operations and financial condition of the Registrant:
The Registrant anticipates a loss from operations of approximately $28.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2025 as compared to income from operations of approximately $3.0 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses to $45.5 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 as compared to $18.7 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024. A significant portion of the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to an increase in stock-based comp expense and incremental bad debt expense.
Pursuant to General Instruction B.2 of Current Report on Form 8-K, the information in Item 2.02 of this report is furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. Furthermore, such information shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, including statements about the financial condition, results of operations, earnings outlook and prospects of the Registrant. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “would” and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the Registrant’s management and are inherently subject to uncertainties and changes in circumstances and their potential effects and speak only as of the date of such statement. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those discussed and identified in public filings made with the SEC by the Registrant.
