PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Lendway, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024 (the “Covered Report”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense due to significant management turnover and unanticipated delays in compiling certain information necessary to prepare a complete filing in a timely manner, which delays have primarily resulted from the Company’s recent acquisition of a majority interest in Bloomia B.V. (“Bloomia”) as of February 22, 2024. The Company is working diligently to complete the Covered Report as soon as possible. The Company intends to file the Covered Report as soon as practicable, but not later than the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date for the Covered Report.

(2) | Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?

| ☒ Yes ☐ No |
(3) | Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? |
| ☒ Yes ☐ No |
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
Since the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company disposed of its in-store marketing business and has evolved into a specialty agricultural (“ag”) company focused on making and managing its ag investments in the United States (“U.S.”) and internationally. In 2023 and in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company took three major steps in this evolution:
1. | In August 2023, the Company completed the sale of its in-store marketing business. The operations of the In-Store Marketing Business are presented as discontinued operations. Financial statements and results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 will be recast to present the in-store marketing business as discontinued operations. |
|
|
2. | On February 22, 2024, the Company acquired majority ownership in Bloomia. Bloomia produces and sells fresh cut tulips. Our financial statements and results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 will include Bloomia’s operations following that date of acquisition. |
|
|
3. | In the second quarter of 2024, the Company’s principal financial officer and chief executive officer resigned and were replaced by a chief financial officer and co-chief executive officers. |
Due to the comprehensive nature of the changes to our business during and between the applicable periods, we are unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the anticipated differences in results as of the time of this filing.
