RED CAT HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – The Business
Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated in February 1984. The Company is a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government and commercial operation. Since April 2016, the Company’s primary business has been to provide products, services, and solutions to the drone industry. Beginning in January 2020, the Company expanded the scope of its drone products and services through five acquisitions, including:
| A. | In January 2020, the Company acquired Rotor Riot, a provider of First Person View (“FPV”) drones and equipment, primarily to consumers. The purchase price was $ | |
| B. | In November 2020, the Company acquired Fat Shark Holdings, Ltd. (“Fat Shark”), a provider of FPV video goggles to the drone industry. The purchase price was $ | |
| C. | In May 2021, the Company acquired Skypersonic which provided hardware and software solutions that enable drones to complete inspection services in locations where GPS is either denied or not available, yet still record and transmit data even while being operated from thousands of miles away. The purchase price was $ | |
| D. | In August 2021, the Company acquired Teal Drones, Inc. (“Teal”), a leader in commercial and government Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (“UAV”) technology. The purchase price was $ | |
| E. | In September 2024, the Company acquired FlightWave Aerospace Systems Corporation, an industry-leading provider of VTOL drone, sensor and software solutions, under an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”). As part of the acquisition, the Company created a new subsidiary, FW Acquisition Inc. (“FlightWave”) for ongoing operations. The purchase price was $ |
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation with respect to the interim financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the eight month transition period ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s Transition Report on Form 10-KT.
| 7 |
Principles of Consolidation – Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries which include Teal, FlightWave (beginning on September 5, 2024), Skypersonic, as well as Rotor Riot and Fat Shark through the sale date of February 16, 2024. Non-majority owned investments, including the formerly wholly owned subsidiaries Rotor Riot and Fat Shark, were accounted for using the equity method when the Company was able to significantly influence the operating policies of the investee. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The Consumer segment businesses are characterized as discontinued operations in these financial statements. The operating results and cash flows of discontinued operations are separately stated in those respective financial statements. See Note 4.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates reflected in these financial statements include those used to (i) complete purchase price accounting for acquisitions, (ii) the evaluation of long-term assets, including goodwill, for impairment, (iii) the evaluation of other-than-temporary-impairment of equity method investments, and (iv) valuations of convertible notes payable.
Concentration of Credit Risk – Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, include trade receivables. In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers. Accordingly, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, generally does not require collateral and considers the credit risk profile of the customer from which the receivable is due in further evaluating collection risk. Customers that accounted for 10% or greater of accounts receivable, net as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:
| 8 |
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |||||||
| Customer A | % | * | ||||||
| Customer B | % | * | ||||||
| Customer C | % | * | ||||||
| Customer D | * | % | ||||||
| Customer E | * | % | ||||||
| Customer F | * | % | ||||||
| * |
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, three
customers accounted for equal to or greater than 10% of total revenue, totaling
Fair Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities, and Related Disclosures – The fair value measurements and disclosure guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with this guidance, the Company has categorized its recurring basis financial assets and liabilities into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2: Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.
The Company’s financial instruments mainly consist of cash, accounts receivable, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and convertible notes payable. The recorded carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable are considered to approximate their estimated fair values due to their short-term nature. Liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets consist of convertible notes payable. These items are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Fair value is defined as the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
| 9 |
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments at fair value based on the fair value hierarchy for each class of instrument:
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |||||||||||||
| Convertible notes payable | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
Convertible Notes Payable
The Company measures its convertible notes payable at fair value based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which caused them to be classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the fair value of the convertible notes payable related to updated assumptions and estimates were recognized as a convertible notes payable fair value adjustment within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
In determining the fair value of the convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2025, the Company used a market-based approach. The valuation method utilized a negotiated discount rate and a market yield rate which are unobservable inputs.
An increase or decrease in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material increase or decrease in the estimated fair value. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value.
The Company calculated the estimated fair value of the convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2025 using the following assumptions:
| Issuance date | ||||
| Maturity date | ||||
| Stock price | ||||
| Expected volatility factor | % | |||
| Risk-free interest rate | % |
The following table presents changes in the Level 3 convertible notes payable measured at fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2025:
| Balance, January 1, 2025 | $ | |||
| Additions | ||||
| Fair value measurement adjustments | ||||
| Balance, March 31, 2025 | $ |
Warrants
The fair value of the warrants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The significant unobservable inputs for the Monte Carlo model include the stock price, exercise price, risk-free rate of return, time to expiration, and the volatility. An increase or decrease in the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material increase or decrease in the estimated fair value. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value. Additionally, if certain provisions are triggered, reset adjustments may be required in the future. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, no value was assigned to the warrants due to the fair market value of the convertible note payable being in excess of the proceeds received.
Revenue Recognition – The Company recognizes
revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
This standard includes a comprehensive evaluation of factors to be considered regarding revenue recognition including (i) identifying
the promised goods, (ii) evaluating performance obligations, (iii) measuring the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price
to the performance obligations if there are multiple components, and (v) recognizing revenue as each obligation is satisfied. The Company’s
revenue transactions include the shipment of goods to customers as orders are fulfilled, completion of non-recurring engineering, completion
of training, and customer support services. The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of product or prototypes unless otherwise specified
in the purchase order or contract. Customer deposits totaled $

Note 3 – Business Combination
On September 4, 2024, the Company entered into the APA with FlightWave Aerospace Systems Corporation (the “Seller”) to broaden the
Company’s range of drone products. The seller sold certain assets used in designing, developing, manufacturing, and selling long
range, AI-powered UAVs for commercial use. Pursuant to the APA, the Company has acquired substantially all of the assets owned, controlled
or used by the Seller for an aggregate purchase price of $

| ● | $ |
Goodwill for FlightWave is ascribed to existing relationships with several U.S. government agencies including classification as approved vendors. The Company has reported net losses since its inception and is presently unable to determine when and if the tax benefit of this deduction will be realized.
The summary of the purchase price and its related allocation at fair market value is as follows:

Brand name, backlog, customer relationships and proprietary technology are included in intangible assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The carrying value of brand name is not being amortized but is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end for impairment. Customer relationships and proprietary technology are being amortized over seven years. Backlog is being amortized over two years. The excess of the purchase price above the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill which is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end.

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the Transition Period ended December 31, 2024 as may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC. All amounts in this report are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.
Overview
We are a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government and commercial operations. We were originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado in 1984 under the name “Oravest International, Inc.” In November 2016, we changed our name to “TimefireVR, Inc.” and re-incorporated in Nevada. In May 2019, we completed a share exchange agreement with Propware which resulted in the Propware shareholders acquiring an 83% ownership interest, and management control, of the Company. In connection with the share exchange agreement, we changed our name to “Red Cat Holdings, Inc.”, and our operating focus to the drone industry.
Prior to the share exchange agreement, Propware was focused on the research and development of software solutions that could provide secure cloud-based analytics, storage and services for the drone industry. Following the share exchange agreement and name change, we have completed a series of acquisitions and financings which have broadened the scope of our activities in the drone industry.
Recent Developments
In April 2025, we entered into the First and Second Amendments to the February 2025 SPA with Lind. Additionally, in April 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering. See Note 19 for further information.
Plan of Operations
Since April 2016, the Company’s primary business has been to provide products, services, and solutions to the drone industry which it presently does through its wholly owned consolidated subsidiaries. Beginning in January 2020, the Company expanded the scope of its drone products and services through five acquisitions, including:
| A. | In January 2020, we acquired Rotor Riot, a reseller of drones and related parts, primarily to the consumer marketplace through its digital storefront located at www.rotorriot.com. The total purchase price was $2.0 million. Rotor Riot was sold in February 2024 to Unusual Machines. |
| B. | In November 2020, we acquired Fat Shark which sells consumer electronics products to the first-person view sector of the drone industry. Fat Shark’s flagship products are headsets with a built-in display that allow a pilot to see a real-time video feed from a camera typically mounted on an aerial platform or drone. The total purchase price was $8.4 million. Fat Shark was sold in February 2024 to Unusual Machines. |
| C. | In May 2021, we acquired Skypersonic, a provider of drone products and software solutions that enable drone inspection flights that can be executed by pilots anywhere in the world. Skypersonic powers drones to “Fly Anywhere” and “Inspect the Impossible”. Its patented software and hardware solutions allow for inspection services in restricted spaces where GPS is denied or unavailable. The total purchase price was $2.8 million. Skypersonic’s technology has been redirected to military applications and its operations consolidated into Teal. |
| D. | In August 2021, we acquired Teal, a leader in providing sophisticated and complex unmanned aerial vehicle technology, primarily drones, to government and commercial enterprises, most notably, the military. Teal manufactures drones approved by the U.S. Department of Defense for reconnaissance, public safety, and inspection applications. The total purchase price was $10.0 million. | |
| E. | In September 2024, we acquired FlightWave Aerospace Systems Corporation, an industry-leading provider of VTOL drone, sensor and software solutions, under an Asset Purchase Agreement. As part of the acquisition, we created a new subsidiary, FW Acquisition Inc. for ongoing operations. The total purchase price was $14.0 million. |

Discussion and Analysis of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Revenues
Consolidated revenues totaled $1,629,662 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 (or the “2025 period”) compared to $6,614,029 during the three months ended March 31, 2024 (or the “2024 period”) representing a decrease of $4,984,367, or 75%. The decrease related to lower product revenue as the Company has begun shifting manufacturing focus from the Teal 2 to the Black Widow.
Gross Profit
Consolidated gross loss totaled $850,410 during the 2025 period compared to a gross profit of $1,121,204 during the 2024 period representing a decrease of $1,971,614, or 176%. On a percentage basis, gross loss was 52% during the 2025 period compared to a gross profit of 17% during the 2024 period. The gross loss in the 2025 period was due to lower-than-planned manufacturing levels due to the transition to the Black Widow which resulted in higher relative overhead costs compared to the 2024 period. Our manufacturing facility is presently producing drones at a lower level than it is designed for, and these lower production levels, combined with higher overhead costs, continue to result in lower than targeted gross margins.
Operating Expenses
Research and development expenses totaled $3,432,593 during the 2025 period compared to $2,669,502 during the 2024 period, representing an increase of $763,091, or 29%. The increase was primarily due to a higher headcount, including the addition of employees from the FlightWave acquisition.
Sales and marketing costs totaled $3,314,748 during the 2025 period compared to $1,410,506 during the 2024 period, representing an increase of $1,904,242 or 135%. The increase was driven by higher payroll expenses due to an increased headcount and an increase in tradeshow attendance in efforts to spread awareness of new products and the Red Cat Futures Initiative.
General and administrative expenses totaled $4,880,448 during the 2025 period compared to $3,084,495 during the 2024 period, representing an increase of $1,795,953 or 58%. The increase was mainly due to a higher headcount, including the addition of employees from the FlightWave acquisition. In anticipation of winning the production contract under the Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance program of record, the Company increased investment in personnel necessary to fulfill the contract as well as anticipated demands for future products.
During the 2025 period, we incurred stock-based compensation costs of $1,598,972 compared to $805,634 in the 2024 period, resulting in an increase of $793,338 or 98%.
Other Income
Other expense totaled $10,645,152 during the 2025 period compared to other income of $635,676 during the 2024 period, representing an increase of $11,280,828 or more than 17 times. This increase is primarily related to a loss of $10,699,677 recognized in the 2025 period on the February 2025 Note to Lind, based on its fair value.
Net Loss from Continuing Operations
Net loss from continuing operations totaled $23,123,351 for the 2025 period compared to $5,407,623 for the 2024 period, resulting in an increase of $17,715,728 or 328%.
| 26 |
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $15,907,737 during the 2025 period compared to net cash used in operating activities of $4,375,260 during the 2024 period, representing an increase of $11,532,477 or 264%. The increased use of cash primarily related to lower gross profit and higher cash based operating expenses compared to the 2024 period. Net cash used in operations, net of non-cash expenses, totaled $12,886,204 during the 2025 period, compared to $1,129,679 during the 2024 period, resulting in an increase of $11,756,525, or more than 10 times. Net cash used related to changes in operating assets and liabilities totaled $5,670,590 during the 2025 period, compared to $97,316 during the 2024 period, representing an increase of $5,573,274. Changes in operating assets and liabilities can fluctuate significantly from period to period depending upon the timing and level of multiple factors, including inventory purchases, vendor payments, and customer collections.
Investing Activities
Net cash used by investing activities was $273,103 during the 2025 period compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $924,009 during the 2024 period, resulting in a decrease of $1,197,112 or 130%. During the 2025 period, proceeds from the divestiture of the consumer segment was $0 compared to $1,000,000 during the 2024 period.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $14,748,953 during the 2025 period compared to net cash used in financing activities of $147,147 during the 2024 period. The increase related to the proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes payable during the 2025 period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2025, we reported current assets totaling $29,412,488, current liabilities totaling $28,906,372 and net working capital of $506,116. Cash totaled $7,722,410 at March 31, 2025. Inventory related balances, including pre-paid inventory, totaled $17,107,860.
Going Concern
We have never been profitable and have incurred net losses related to acquisitions, as well as costs incurred to pursue our long-term growth strategy. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we incurred a net loss of $23,123,351 and used cash in operating activities of $15,907,737. As of March 31, 2025, working capital totaled $506,116. These financial results and our financial position at March 31, 2025 raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have recently taken actions to strengthen its liquidity through additional financings. Additionally, in November 2024, we were selected as the winner of the U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) Program of Record which we are currently in negotiations regarding the initial purchase. We are currently in the process of scaling our production manufacturing facility in order to increase revenue and improve gross margins in hopes to increase cash flows from operations. As described in Note 12, we closed financings with proceeds of $7,681,000, $5,775,000, $14,432,880 in September 2024, November 2024, and February 2025, respectively. Additionally, our Form S-3 became effective on December 11, 2024 and as described in Note 19, on April 10, 2025, we raised an additional $30 million. Management has concluded that these recent positive developments alleviate any substantial doubt about our ability to continue our operations, and meet our financial obligations, for twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, 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.
| 27 |
Significant estimates reflected in these financial statements include those used to (i) complete purchase price accounting for acquisitions, (ii) evaluate long-term assets, including goodwill, for impairment, (iii) evaluate inventory reserves for excess and obsolescence and (iv) determine valuations of convertible notes payable and warrants.
Purchase Price Accounting – We record our acquisitions under the acquisition method of accounting, under which most of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are initially recorded at their respective fair values and any excess purchase price is reflected as goodwill. We utilize management estimates and, in some instances, independent third-party valuation firms to assist in determining the fair values of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and contingent consideration, if any. Such estimates and valuations require us to make significant assumptions, including projections of future events and operating performance.
The fair value of brand name, backlog, customer relationships and proprietary technology acquired in our acquisitions are determined using various valuation methods, based on a number of significant assumptions. We determine which assets have finite lives and then determine the estimated useful life of finite assets. The carrying value of brand name is not being amortized but is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end for impairment. Backlog, customer relationships and proprietary technology are being amortized over seven years.
The estimated fair values are subject to change during the measurement period, which is limited to one year subsequent to the acquisition date.
Goodwill and Long-lived Assets – Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired in an acquisition that are not individually identified and separately recognized. We test goodwill for impairment in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, (“ASC 350”). Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. ASC 350 provides that an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then additional impairment testing is not required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform an impairment test. The impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its book value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value exceeds book value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If, however, the fair value of the reporting unit is less than book value, then an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the amount that the book value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
The estimate of fair value of a reporting unit is computed using either an income approach, a market approach, or a combination of both. Under the income approach, we utilize the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. Significant assumptions inherent in estimating the fair values include the estimated future cash flows, growth assumptions for future revenues (including gross profit, operating expenses, and capital expenditures), and a rate used to discount estimated future cash flow projections to their present value based on estimated weighted average cost of capital (i.e., the selected discount rate). Our assumptions are based on historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions, estimated growth rates, and management’s plans. Under the market approach, fair value is derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses is based on the markets in which the reporting units operate and consider risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services.
Inventories – We measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value considering judgments and estimates related to future customer demand and other market conditions. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, any significant changes in customer demand that are less favorable than our previous estimates may require additional inventory write-downs and would be reflected in cost of sales resulting in a negative impact to our gross margin in that period.

Convertible Notes Payable –We measure convertible notes payable at fair value based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which causes them to be classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the fair value of the convertible notes payable relate to updated assumptions and estimates are recognized as a convertible notes payable fair value adjustment within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
In determining the fair value of the convertible notes payable, we use a market-based approach. The valuation method utilizes a negotiated discount rate and a market yield rate which are unobservable inputs.
An increase or decrease in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material increase or decrease in the estimated fair value. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value.
Warrants – The fair value of the warrants issued is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The significant unobservable inputs for the Monte Carlo model include the stock price, exercise price, risk-free rate of return, time to expiration, and the volatility. An increase or decrease in the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material increase or decrease in the estimated fair value. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are not required to provide the information required by this Item as we are a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” as of March 31, 2025, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to a company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, specifically pertaining to the disclosed and restated financials noted in our report on internal control over financial reporting below.

Management’s quarterly report on internal control over financial reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Our accounting policies and internal controls over financial reporting, established and maintained by management, are under the general oversight of the Board’s audit committee.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; | |
| ● | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and | |
| ● | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025. The standard measures adopted by management in making its evaluation are the measures in the Internal-Control Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission.
Based on management’s assessment using the COSO criteria, our CEO and CFO concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2025, which was identified during the year ended April 30, 2023 and continues through March 31, 2025. Our size has prevented us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties. Therefore, management concluded that we did not have a comprehensive and formalized accounting and financial reporting policies and procedures manual which details the information needed for our financial reporting process and that we did not have a robust review process by which management could monitor for potential errors or technical accounting requirements, which have resulted in material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025. Management is reviewing internal control procedures and will work to implement enhanced procedures to address the identified material weakness.
Changes In Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
