Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2025 and 2024 (Unaudited)
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and that the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments will continue in the ordinary course of business.
The Company plans to finance operations by obtaining additional capital through external sources of financing. It may attempt to obtain additional capital through the sale of equity securities or the issuance of debt securities. The Company has not made arrangements to obtain additional capital and can provide no assurance that additional financing will be available in an amount or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
In making this assessment, management performed a comprehensive analysis of the Company’s current circumstances including its financial position, cash flow and outflow forecasts, and obligations and debts. Although management has a recent history of successful capital raises, the analysis used to determine the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern does not include cash resources outside the Company’s direct control that management expects to be available within the next 12 months.
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by US GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial position and the condensed consolidated results of operations. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Segment Reporting
Pursuant
to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 280, Segment
Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the Company’s Chief Operating Decision
Maker (“CODM”) for the purposes of ASC 280. The CODM concluded that the Company operates two reportable segments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring entities to disclose specific rate reconciliations, amount of income taxes separate by federal and individual tax jurisdictions, and the amount of income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) disaggregated between federal, state and foreign. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). This ASU requires disclosure on an annual and interim basis, in the notes to the financial statements, of disaggregated information about specific categories underlying certain income statement expense line items. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20). This ASU clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. Adoption can be on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 4 – Variable Interest Entities
The Company determined that SMCB Solutions Private Limited, an Indian Company (“SMCB”), is a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) because the Company provides financial support to SMCB in the form of a loan agreement to fund SMCB’s operations. The Company further determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of SMCB because the Company does not have the power to direct or control SMCB’s significant activities related to its business. Accordingly, the Company has not consolidated SMCB’s results of operations and financial position in its consolidated financial statements.

The Company evaluates developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued and makes adjustments as appropriate.

Ault Lending was seeking the following relief from the court: (i) declarations that the defendant directors breached their fiduciary duties; and that Stingray Group and Regalia Ventures aided and abetted those breaches; (ii) rescission of the Company’s sale of shares to Stingray Group and Regalia Ventures; and (iii) damages and attorney’s fees. On April 30, 2025, Ault Lending filed a motion with the court requesting that the claims be dismissed without prejudice and on that same date, the court approved the dismissal of the claims without prejudice.

Basic net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, shares of common stock underlying stock options and shares of common stock underlying warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as the result would have been anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, shares of common stock underlying stock options and shares of common stock underlying warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as the result would have been anti-dilutive.

pursuant to which the Company agreed to repurchase the shares from Stingray Group at a price per share equal to the higher of:
(i) the closing price of the common stock on the last trading day immediately preceding the date of the repurchase agreement; or (ii)
the highest VWAP of the common stock during a pricing period of 10 consecutive trading days prior to the date of the repurchase agreement.
The shares of common stock to be repurchased were originally issued to the Stingray Group on November 21, 2023, pursuant to a certain

December 2024 Public Offering
On
December 4, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement in connection with a public offering of an aggregate of
shares of its common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to shares of common stock, Series A warrants to purchase up to
shares of common stock, and Series B warrants to purchase up to shares of common stock. Each share of common stock, or
a pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof, was sold together with the accompanying warrants to purchase one share of common stock. The Company
received aggregate gross proceeds upon the closing of the offering of approximately $
The
Series A and B warrants were exercisable only upon
receipt of such shareholder approval as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (the
“Nasdaq”) to permit the exercise of the Series A and B warrants. The Series A and
B warrants include an exercise price adjustment feature upon shareholder approval, whereby the exercise price will adjust to the
greater of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the reset period or the floor price, which was $
The Company assessed the Series A and B warrants under ASC 480 and ASC 815 and determined that the Series A and B warrants needed to be classified as liabilities as they did not meet the requirements to be considered indexed to the Company’s own stock, due to: (a) the adjustment to the exercise price tied to shareholder approval, and (b) the potential change in the settlement amount of the Series B warrants upon an alternative cashless exercise election. Additionally, the Company concluded at issuance that it would not have sufficient authorized and available shares of common stock to settle the Series A and B warrants.

Note 12 – Derivative Liability
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company had derivative warrant liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These fair value measurements were estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model, with the key inputs described below. Each of these fair value measurements was considered to be a Level 3 measurement by the Company as they used significant unobservable inputs, including the probability and expected date of stockholder approval.
The key inputs for the Series A warrant liabilities were as follows:
| Warrant Liability – Series A Warrants | January 17, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | ||||||
| Stock price on valuation date | $ | $ | ||||||
| Exercise price | $ | $ | ||||||

| Annual volume volatility | % | % | ||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | % | % | ||||||
| Expected stockholder approval date | ||||||||
| Expected stockholder approval probability | % | % | ||||||
The Series B warrant liabilities were remeasured on each exercise date based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date the warrants were exercised.
On
January 13, 2025, the Company’s shareholders approved the issuance of the Series A and Series B Warrants. This approval triggered
the adjustment to the exercise price described above. In connection with this approval, the holders of the Series B warrants exercised
their warrants in full under the alternative cashless exercise provision, resulting in the issuance of shares of common stock
and no additional proceeds received by the Company. The Series A warrants became exercisable for

Notes 15 – Concentrations, Risks and Uncertainties
Bank Liquidity and Financial Stability
At times, the Company maintains cash in United States bank accounts that are more than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured amounts. The Company maintains cash balances in foreign financial institutions. The Company regularly monitors the financial stability of this financial institution and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash and cash equivalents. However, in March and April 2023, certain U.S. government banking regulators took steps to intervene in the operations of certain financial institutions due to liquidity concerns, which caused general heightened uncertainties in financial markets. While these events have not had a material direct impact on the Company’s operations, if further liquidity and financial stability concerns arise with respect to banks and financial institutions, either nationally or in specific regions, the Company’s ability to access cash or enter into new financing arrangements may be threatened, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

U.S. Trade Policies
U.S. government administration and members of the U.S. Congress have recently implemented significant changes in U.S. trade policy and taken certain actions that are impacting the Company’s business, including imposing tariffs on certain goods imported into the United States. Some of these changes have triggered retaliatory actions by affected countries and may result in “trade wars” and increased costs for goods imported into the United States. All of the Company’s products are manufactured and imported from China and the Company sells its products in Canada and other countries. The implementation of tariffs has resulted in an increase in the cost of the Company’s products. If the Company is unable to mitigate these increased costs through price increases, it may experience lower sales which would negatively impact its revenue, gross profit margin and results of operations.
Revenue Concentration
The
Company derives a majority of its revenues from sales of its products in North America by retailers. The Company’s allowance for
credit losses is based upon management’s estimates and historical experience and reflects the fact that accounts receivable is
concentrated with several large customers. As of March 31, 2025,

SMCB
VIE Analysis
The Company determined that SMCB, which is a subsidiary of SemiCab, Inc., is a VIE as the Company provides financial support to SMCB. While not contractually obligated, SMCB currently relies on the Company’s reimbursement of certain costs under an intercompany services agreement (“MSA”) whereby SMCB agrees to provide IT software development services to SemiCab, Inc. In exchange, under the MSA, the Company grants intellectual property rights to SMCB to use the software platform in India. Compensation for services is invoiced and paid on a monthly or quarterly basis as agreed by both parties, with rates subject to periodic review and revision. The agreement is for a term of two years ending on April 1, 2025 and automatically renews for additional 12-month periods unless prior notice is given by the terminating party. The agreement automatically renewed for an additional 12-month period on April 1, 2025. As a result of this relationship and the financial support provided by the Company to SMCB under the loan agreement described below to fund SMCB’s operations, SMCB has been determined to be a VIE.
The Company further determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of SMCB because the Company does not have the power to direct or control SMCB’s significant activities related to its business. Accordingly, the Company has not consolidated SMCB’s results of operations and financial position in its consolidated financial statements.
Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement that the Company entered into on June 11, 2024, the Company entered into an option agreement that granted SemiCab Holdings the right to acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of SMCB for shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company did not exercise this right and the option agreement expired on August 31, 2024.

All forward-looking statements included in this report are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and, except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth herein under Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this report. The following should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this report and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Overview
We are an artificial intelligence (“AI”) technology and consumer electronics holding company with two primary business units – SemiCab and Singing Machine. SemiCab is an AI-enabled software logistics business operated through our subsidiary, SemiCab Holdings, LLC. Singing Machine is a home karaoke consumer products business that designs and distributes karaoke products globally to retailers and ecommerce partners through our subsidiary, The Singing Machine Company, Inc.
SemiCab
SemiCab is a cloud-based Collaborative Transportation Platform built to achieve the scalability required to predict and optimize loads and the use of trucks. To orchestrate collaboration across manufacturers, retailers, distributors, and their carriers, SemiCab uses real-time data from API-based load tendering and pre-built integrations with TMS and ELD partners. To build fully loaded round trips, SemiCab uses AI/ML techniques and advanced predictive optimization models.
Since 2020, SemiCab has enabled major retailers, brands and transportation providers to address their transportation needs. SemiCab’s Orchestrated Collaboration™ AI model has proven to increase transportation capacity, improve asset utilization, reduce empty miles, lower logistics costs, and provide visibility into the entire transportation network. Models show that the technology has the capability of reducing costs through optimization. Additionally, SemiCab’s technology has the potential to play a key role in the improved sustainability model. Based on its proven ability to improve truck utilization rates, this could result in a dramatic reduction in the carbon footprint of the industry. The optimization of existing truck utilization can add trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles which addresses common problems plaguing the industry like severe driver shortage and road congestion. Trucking optimization could also reduce carbon emissions attributable to road freight.
Singing Machine
Through Singing Machine, we engage in the development, marketing, and sale of consumer karaoke audio equipment, accessories, and musical recordings. We are a leading global karaoke and music entertainment company that specializes in the design and production of quality karaoke and music enabled consumer products for adults and children. Our products are among the most widely available karaoke products internationally.
| 25 |
Our mission is to “create joy through music.” To deliver on this mission, we are focused on a multi-prong approach. In the short-term, we seek to improve profitability by optimizing operations and continue to expand gross margins. In the mid-to-long-term, we seek to continue to expand our business into new verticals including automotive and connected-TV devices and grow our global distribution for our consumer karaoke products.
Recent Corporate Events
Name and Symbol Change
Effective September 5, 2024, our Certificate of Incorporation was amended to change our name from “The Singing Machine Company, Inc.” to “Algorhythm Holdings, Inc.” In addition, effective September 8, 2024, our ticker symbol was changed from “MICS” to “RIME.”
Reverse Stock Split and Increase in Authorized Shares
On January 13, 2025, our stockholders voted to authorize our board of directors to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of our common stock at a specific ratio within a range of 1-for-10 to a maximum of 1-for-250 and to amend our certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized common stock from 100,000,000 to 800,000,000 shares. On January 14, 2025, our board of directors approved a reverse stock split of 1-for-200 ratio and approved the filing of a certificate of amendment to our certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split and to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 800,000,000. The reverse stock split took effect on February 10, 2025. In accordance with SEC rules and regulations, all share numbers and prices throughout this report and our consolidated financial statements reflect post-reverse stock split numbers.
Acquisition of SMCB
On May 2, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), we and SemiCab Holdings entered into an equity purchase agreement with SemiCab Inc. pursuant to which: (i) SemiCab Holdings purchased 9,999 shares of the issued and outstanding equity shares, Rs. 10 par value, of SMCB, representing 99.99% of the issued and outstanding equity shares of SMCB, for $1,750,000, the payment of which amount was evidenced by the issuance of a promissory note by us to SemiCab, Inc., and (ii) we purchased the 20% membership interest in SemiCab Holdings then held by SemiCab, Inc. for aggregate consideration consisting of 119,742 shares of our common stock. The promissory note provides that $1,500,000 is due and payable by us on the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the remaining $250,000 is due and payable by us on the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date. The promissory note bears interest at six percent per annum.

Pursuant to the terms of the employment agreements, SemiCab Holdings granted Messrs. Kapoor and Sehgal a membership interest in SemiCab Holdings with three quarters of each such grant subject to certain forfeiture rights tied to continued employment with SemiCab Holdings. Additionally, Mr. Kapoor was granted the right to serve as a member of our board of directors and the right to appoint an additional member of our board of directors upon the occurrence of certain specified events.
Also on the Closing Date, we, SemiCab Holdings, Ajesh Kapoor and Vivek Sehgal entered into an amended and restated limited liability company agreement for SemiCab Holdings which sets forth the terms and conditions governing the operation and management of SemiCab Holdings.
Strategy
Our SemiCab and Singing Machine businesses are each in very different stages of development. Accordingly, our plans for growing each of them are very different.
SemiCab is an early-stage business that is not yet contributing a material amount of revenue to us. We intend to invest in our SemiCab business to develop and grow it into a significant revenue producer for us. This will involve investments in the continued research and development of its technology, the hiring of additional qualified employees, marketing and advertising initiatives, and back-office support. While SemiCab is a nascent business, it has already acquired several multinational consumer products companies as customers. We believe that as existing customers experience the benefits of our SemiCab logistics and distribution solutions, they will begin to increase their use of SemiCab. We also believe that SemiCab’s proven ability to improve truck utilization rates and improve trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles will be of substantial interest to additional companies that can benefit from SemiCab.
We acquired the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024 and acquired the India component of our SemiCab business on May 2, 2025. We may make additional investments in companies operating in the AI distribution and logistics space that we believe are complementary to our SemiCab business. Our investments could involve an acquisition of the assets or equity of complementary companies or businesses, or could involve a strategic partnership or joint venture with complementary companies or businesses. We believe that additional investments could provide us with new AI logistics and distribution technologies, services and resources that we can implement across our entire SemiCab business, or could help us to more quickly expand our SemiCab footprint into other parts of the world. We are actively evaluating additional opportunities to expand our SemiCab business through investments in complementary AI logistics and distribution businesses and companies.
In contrast to our SemiCab business, our Singing Machine business has been successfully operating worldwide for decades. Our karaoke products are well-known and established with retailers and consumers in the countries in which we sell them. Our plan for Singing Machine is to continue to focus on customer retention through loyalty programs for the online and brick-and-mortar retailers offering our products and compelling offer promotions, discounts, and special deals to attract customers and increase conversions. We also intend to reduce costs through overhead trimming and the use of new selling and marketing methodologies, leverage data analytics to better understand new trends in consumer preferences for our products, explore new product features and product offerings, and support our new and existing products with fun and exciting digital marketing and advertising initiatives. We may also explore entering new markets that may offer more profitable avenues for our products.

Financial Results
We generated net sales of $1,993,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,426,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to the loss of retail shelf space at two major customers. Gross profit decreased $2,000 to $500,000, or 25.1% of net sales, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $502,000, or 20.7% of net sales, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was due primarily to the decrease of $433,000 for net sales, partially offset by a corresponding decrease of $431,000 for cost of goods sold associated with less products being manufactured for sale. Our operating expenses increased $521,000 to $3,310,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, from $2,789,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses incurred for the growth and development of our SemiCab business. As a result, we incurred a loss from operations of $2,810,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2,287,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.
We generated net losses available to common stockholders of $9,191,000, or $4.66 per share of common stock, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,367,000, or $73.76 per share of common stock, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. We had total assets of $10,461,000 and $18,302,000 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Net cash used by operating activities was $3,108,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2,557,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.
The most significant contributor to the increase in our net loss available to common stockholders was a one-time, non-cash charge of $6,468,000 for the change in fair value of warrants that we issued in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024. In that offering, we sold Series A warrants and Series B warrants that had certain features and were subject to certain contingencies that resulted in us having to record a warrant liability of $16,603,000 on our balance sheet at December 31, 2024. All of the contingencies that the Series A warrants were subject to were satisfied in January 2025, and all of the Class B warrants were exercised in full during January and February 2025. We re-measured the warrant liability for the Class A and B warrants on their respective measurement dates and adjusted the liability to fair value which resulted in us recording the non-cash charge of $6,468,000 for the change in fair value of warrants. The warrant liability was reclassified as equity on our condensed consolidated balance sheet for our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025. As a result, we did not have any warrant liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2025 and will not incur any further non-cash charges for the change in fair value of warrants.
| 28 |
Outlook
We expect net sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products to decrease over the next 12 months due to the negative impact on our business from recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China. However, we expect revenue generated from our SemiCab business to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business from our growing customer base in the United States and India. As a result, total net sales are expected to increase over the next 12 months. We expect gross profit to remain at similar levels over the next 12 months as costs of goods sold decrease commensurate with the decrease in net sales of our karaoke products. We expect operating expenses to remain flat, if not decrease, over the next 12 months as we implement initiatives designed to reduce general and administrative expenses, particularly those related to marketing and advertising initiatives. The reductions achieved may be partially offset by legal and accounting expenses that we incur as we engage in additional capital-raising activities as needed to fund our business and expenses that we incur to fund the growth and development of our SemiCab business. Net loss available to common stockholders is expected to decrease substantially during the next 12 months primarily due to the fact that we do not expect to incur any additional non-cash charges for the change in fair value of warrants, and due to the decreases in general and administrative expenses that we intend to generate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event we complete additional acquisitions of controlling or non-controlling financial interests in other complementary businesses or companies through mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic initiatives, such as the acquisition of the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024 and the acquisition of the India component of our SemiCab business on May 2, 2025, our financial results will include and reflect the financial results of the target entities. Accordingly, the completion of any such transactions in the future may have a substantial beneficial or negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024
Net Sales
Net sales consist primarily of sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products and sales of our SemiCab logistics and distribution solutions. Net sales decreased $433,000 to $1,993,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,426,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to the loss of retail shelf space at two major customers. We expect net sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products to decrease over the next 12 months due to the negative impact on our business from recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China. However, we expect revenue generated from our SemiCab business to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business from our growing customer base in the United States and India.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of costs for raw materials and the manufacturing of our Singing Machine karaoke products. We incurred only a minimal amount of costs in connection with our SemiCab business. Cost of goods sold decreased $431,000 to $1,493,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1,924,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. Our decrease in net sales of our karaoke products resulted in a corresponding decrease in products manufactured, resulting in lower manufacturing costs. We expect costs of goods sold to decrease over the next 12 months commensurate with the decrease in net sales of our karaoke products due to the negative impact on our business of recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China.

Operating expenses consist of selling expenses and general and administrative expenses.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses consist primarily of marketing and advertising expenses that we incur in connection with advertising campaigns and online advertising initiatives that we engage in to generate sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products. We did not incur any selling expenses in connection with our SemiCab business. Selling expenses increased $134,000 to $764,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, from $630,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due primarily to an increase in online marketing and social media advertising campaigns. We expect selling expenses to decrease over the next 12 months as we engage in fewer, but more focused, marketing and advertising initiatives and as we navigate the negative impact of recently implemented tariffs on sales of our karaoke products.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll expenses, legal and accounting expenses, warehouse expenses and rent expense associated with our Singing Machine business, and general and administrative expenses incurred in the development and growth of our SemiCab business. General and administrative expenses increased $387,000 to $2,546,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,159,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due primarily to increases of $480,000 for general and administrative expenses incurred in the development and growth of our SemiCab business. We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease over the next 12 months as we implement actions designed to reduce general and administrative expenses. The reductions achieved may be partially offset by an increase in expenses that we incur to fund the growth and development of our SemiCab business.
Other Expenses
Other expenses consists primarily of a non-cash loss that we incurred for the change in fair value of the warrants in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024. We incurred only a minimal amount of other expenses in connection with our SemiCab business. Other expenses increased $6,456,000 to $6,468,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $28,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due primarily to an increase of $6,468,000 for the change in fair value of warrants.
Net Loss Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest consists of the loss allocated to SemiCab, Inc., which owns 20% of the outstanding membership interests of SemiCab Holdings. SemiCab Holdings owns our SemiCab business. We acquired our SemiCab business from SemiCab, Inc. on July 3, 2024, and, as part of the transaction, granted SemiCab, Inc. a 20% membership interest in SemiCab Holdings. The net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of $103,000 represents the amount of loss incurred by SemiCab that was allocated to SemiCab, Inc. through its 20% membership interest in SemiCab Holdings for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. We expect net loss attributable to non-controlling interest to increase over the next 12 months as we continue to invest in the development and growth of SemiCab’s business.

Liquidity And Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have funded our operations primarily through cash generated by our operations, private sales of equity securities and the use of short- and long-term debt. As of March 31, 2025, our cash balance was $3,296,000.
Net cash used by operating activities was $3,108,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,557,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $551,000 was due primarily to an increase of $6,927,000 for net loss and a decrease of $1,197,000 for accounts receivable. This was partially offset by increases of $6,468,000 for loss on change in fair value of warrants that we incurred in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024 and $892,000 for refunds due to customers.
Net cash used by investing activities was $673,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. We did not have any cash flows from investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $673,000 was due primarily to increases of $672,000 for advances to SMCB under our loan agreement with them.
Net cash used by financing activities was $473,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $21,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $452,000 was due primarily to an increase of $473,000 for repayments of promissory notes to related parties.
To date, our capital needs have been met through cash generated by our operations, sales of our equity securities and the use of short- and long-term debt to fund our operations. We have used these sources of capital to pay virtually all of the costs and expenses that we have incurred to date. These costs and expenses have been comprised primarily of the professional fees, employee compensation expenses, and general and administrative expenses discussed above. We intend to continue to rely upon each of these sources to fund our operations and expansion efforts, including additional acquisitions of controlling or non-controlling financial interests in other complementary businesses and companies during the next 12 months.
We can provide no assurance that these sources of capital will be adequate to fund our operations and expansion efforts during the next 12 months. If these sources of capital are not adequate, we will need to obtain additional capital through alternative sources of financing. We may attempt to obtain additional capital through the sale of equity securities or the issuance of short- and long-term debt. If we raise additional funds by issuing shares of our common stock, our stockholders will experience dilution. If we raise additional funds by issuing securities exercisable or convertible into shares of our common stock, our stockholders will experience dilution in the event the securities are exercised or converted, as the case may be, into shares of our common stock. Debt financing may involve agreements containing covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, issuing equity securities, making capital expenditures for certain purposes or above a certain amount, or declaring dividends. In addition, any equity securities or debt that we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the shares of common stock held by our stockholders.
| 31 |
We have not made arrangements to obtain additional capital and can provide no assurance that additional financing will be available in an amount or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Our ability to obtain additional capital will be subject to a number of factors, including market conditions and our operating performance. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of any proposed future financing transactions unattractive to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, or if such capital cannot be obtained on acceptable terms, we may not be able to pay our costs and expenses as they are incurred, take advantage of future acquisition opportunities, respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated events, or otherwise execute upon our business plan. This may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and, in the extreme case, cause us to discontinue our operations.
Nasdaq Compliance
On August 26, 2024, we received a letter from the Nasdaq indicating that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the closing bid price per share for our common stock had closed below $1.00 for more than 30 consecutive business days. We were given until February 24, 2025, to regain compliance with the rule.
On December 30, 2024, we received notice from the Nasdaq indicating that the bid price for our common stock had closed below $0.10 per share for the 13-consecutive trading day period ended December 27, 2024 and, accordingly, we would be subject to the provisions contemplated under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) and its securities would be subject to delisting from Nasdaq unless we timely request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
On March 25, 2025, we received a letter from the Nasdaq stating that we had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share for continued listing on the Nasdaq, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). We will be subject to a mandatory panel monitor for a period of one year from March 25, 2025. If, within that one-year monitoring period, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications staff finds that we are again out of compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, notwithstanding Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(2), then the staff will issue a delist determination letter and we will have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the initial Nasdaq hearing panel or a newly convened hearing panel if the initial panel is unavailable.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2025, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, that had been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make subjective decisions, assessments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions increases, such judgements become even more subjective. While management believes that its assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, actual results may be materially different than estimated. Our critical accounting estimates and assumptions have not materially changed from those identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for small reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established disclosure controls and procedures designed 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 and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, with the assistance of other members of our management, have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective 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 and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective at December 31, 2024 due to the material weaknesses described below.
1. We lacked sufficient resources in our accounting department restricting our ability to review and approve certain material journal entries which increases the likelihood that a material misstatement of interim or annual financial statements might not be prevented.
| 33 |
2. We lacked sufficient resources in our accounting department, which resulted in our ability to have proper segregation of duties between the preparation, review and approval certain material reconciliations related to financial reporting in a timely manner.
3. Due to our lack of sufficient resource restrictions in our accounting department, we have not established a three-way match of documents or other controls precise enough to detect a material misstatement in revenue.
To remediate these material weaknesses, we intend to conduct a thorough review of the accounting department to ensure that the staff has the appropriate training and experience. We may hire one or more accounting persons to assist us with our accounting and financial reporting function. We also intend to implement more comprehensive written policies and procedures that address separation of duties and proper accounting and financial reporting.
Despite the material weaknesses identified above, we believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in the period covered by this report fairly present, in all material aspects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
During our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025, there were no additional changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On December 21, 2023, Ault Lending, LLC (“Ault Lending”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ault Alliance, Inc., which was at one time one of our largest stockholders, filed a derivative shareholder action in Delaware Chancery Court against us, our board of directors, Stingray Group and Regalia Ventures for alleged breach of fiduciary duty in approving a recent above-market private placement equity transaction. The complaint alleged that we and our board of directors followed an inadequate process in evaluating the private placement transaction that we completed in November 2023 and that we and our board of directors entered into the transaction with an intent to dilute Ault’s ownership stake in us. Ault Lending was seeking the following relief from the court: (i) declarations that the defendant directors breached their fiduciary duties, and that Stingray Group and Regalia Ventures aided and abetted those breaches, (ii) rescinding our sale of shares to Stingray Group and Regalia Ventures, and (iii) awarding damages and attorney’s fees to Ault Lending. On April 30, 2025, Ault Lending filed a motion with the court requesting that the claims be dismissed without prejudice and on that same date, the court approved the dismissal of the claims without prejudice.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Not required for small reporting companies.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On February 13, 2025, we issued a non-qualified stock option to purchase 23,818 shares of our common stock and a restricted stock award for 23,818 shares of our common stock to Alex Andre pursuant to the terms of the employment agreement that he entered into with us in connection with his appointment as our Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel. The option has a ten-year term, subject to any earlier termination following cessation of Mr. Andre’s service with us, and an exercise price per share equal to the closing price of our common stock as reported by the Nasdaq on February 13, 2025. The restricted stock award and option shall each vest over four years as follows: (a) 25% of the shares underlying the restricted stock award and option shall vest on the first anniversary of the grant date; and (b) six and one-quarter percent (6.25%) of the shares underlying the restricted stock award and option shall vest each quarter thereafter, subject to Mr. Andre’s continued service with us through each applicable vesting date. The securities were issued to Mr. Andre in a private placement transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act directly by us without engaging in any advertising or general solicitation of any kind and without payment of underwriting discounts or commissions to any person.
