Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Cycurion, Inc. reports first-quarter 2026 results showing continued losses and liquidity pressure while highlighting prior Nasdaq listing remediation and capital structure changes. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $3.27 million, down from $3.87 million a year earlier, with gross profit of $0.69 million. Net loss attributable to Cycurion narrowed to $2.13 million from $10.25 million, but the company used $2.89 million of cash in operating activities and ended the quarter with cash of $2.03 million.
Management discloses substantial doubt about Cycurion’s ability to continue as a going concern, citing an accumulated deficit of $29.0 million and a working capital deficit of $12.0 million as of March 31, 2026. The company plans to improve operations and pursue a public offering of common stock to raise capital and facilitate conversion of debt and preferred stock. The filing also describes a reverse recapitalization via a 2025 SPAC business combination, consolidation of SLG as a variable interest entity, a one-for-thirty reverse stock split in October 2025, and actions taken in 2025 to regain compliance with Nasdaq Global Market listing rules.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- Going-concern uncertainty and high leverage: As of March 31, 2026, Cycurion reports an accumulated deficit of $29.0 million, a working capital deficit of $12.0 million, significant debt (including bank loans, promissory notes and factoring liabilities), and operating cash outflows, leading management to conclude there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Insights
Cycurion faces significant going-concern risk despite reduced quarterly losses.
Cycurion shows modest operational improvement, with Q1 2026 net loss attributable to the company of $2.13 million versus $10.25 million in Q1 2025, and revenue of $3.27 million. However, operating cash outflows of $2.89 million and quarter-end cash of $2.03 million highlight tight liquidity.
The filing explicitly states substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, referencing a $29.0 million accumulated deficit and $12.0 million working capital deficit as of March 31 2026. Significant bank debt, promissory notes, factoring liabilities and a high weighted-average interest cost on loans compound refinancing and solvency risk.
Management’s plan relies on improving cash generation and registering common stock for a public offering to raise capital and enable conversion of convertible notes and preferred stock, which could reduce leverage if executed. Actual outcomes will depend on future operating performance and the company’s ability to access equity markets under its Nasdaq Global Market listing, which it worked to preserve through 2025, including a one-for-thirty reverse stock split effective October 27 2025.

going concern financial
"As of March 31, 2026, there was substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern"
A going concern is a business that is expected to continue its operations and meet its obligations for the foreseeable future, rather than shutting down or selling off assets. This assumption matters to investors because it indicates stability and ongoing profitability, making the business a more reliable investment. Think of it as believing a restaurant will stay open and serve customers, rather than closing down suddenly.
reverse recapitalization financial
"The Business Combination has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America"
A reverse recapitalization is a way for a privately held company to become publicly traded by taking control of an existing public company and swapping ownership rather than going through a traditional public offering. For investors it matters because it can quickly change who controls a company and reshape its share structure and value — like a homeowner swapping houses and keys rather than building a new one — so it can create sudden shifts in stock supply, dilution and market expectations.
variable interest entity financial
"the Company and SLG entered into a Management Services Agreement ... to gain control of SLG as a VIE"
A variable interest entity (VIE) is a company structure where one party controls another company’s operations and economic outcomes through contracts or special arrangements instead of owning a majority of its voting shares. For investors, VIEs matter because the controlling party’s financial results, debts and risks can appear in the controller’s reports even though ownership looks separate, so understanding VIEs helps assess true exposure, governance limits and transparency—like spotting a puppet controlled by strings rather than direct ownership.
factoring liability financial
"As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 the factoring liability was $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively"
emerging growth company financial
"The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Start-ups Act of 2012"
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.
reverse stock split financial
"the Company announced a one-for-thirty reverse stock split of the Company's shares of common stock"
A reverse stock split is when a company reduces the number of its shares outstanding, making each share more valuable. For example, if you own 100 shares worth $1 each, a 1-for-10 reverse split would turn your 100 shares into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to boost their stock price and appear more stable to investors.

The Business Combination has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") because Cycurion is the operating company and has been determined to be the accounting acquirer under Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"), while Western is a blank check company.
Under the reverse recapitalization model, the Business Combination was treated as Cycurion issuing equity for the net assets of Western, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded.
While Western was the legal acquirer in the Business Combination, because Cycurion Sub, prior to the Business Combination, was deemed the accounting acquirer, the historical financial statements of Cycurion Sub became the historical financial statements of the combined company upon the consummation of the Business Combination. As a result, the financial statements reflect (i) the historical operating results of Cycurion Sub prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the combined results of Western and Cycurion Sub following the closing of the Business Combination; (iii) the assets and liabilities of Cycurion Sub at their historical cost; and (iv) Cycurion's equity structure for all periods presented.

In accordance with the applicable guidance, the equity structure has been retroactively restated in all comparative periods up to the closing date, of the Business Combination to reflect the number of shares of the Company's common stock issued to Cycurion Sub common stockholders in connection with the Business Combination. As such, the shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share related to Cycurion Sub prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the Business Combination.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company on a going concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized, and liabilities are settled in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the financial statements. As of March 31, 2026, there was substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, as the Company had a net working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit resulting from substantial losses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and from prior periods. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to market and sell its products to generate positive operating cash flows. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $29.0 million and a working capital deficit of $12.0 million. In addition, the Company had a net cash outflow of $2.9 million from operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026. These circumstances continued to give rise to substantial doubt as to whether the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and did not alleviate the doubt outstanding from 2025.
Management's plan is to continue improving operations to generate positive cash flows and register shares of its common stock in order to undertake a public offering to raise additional capital. Management believes that the valuation and liquidity brought by a public offering of its securities will allow holders of convertibles notes, and convertible preferred stockholders the mechanism to convert their securities into common stock that will reduce the Company's overall leverage and debt service requirement. If the Company is not able to continue generating positive operating cash flows, and raise additional capital, there is the risk that the Company may become insolvent.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Start-ups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act") which exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised, and it has different application dates for public or private companies. The Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of the Company's financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Nasdaq Communications
On August 21, 2025, the Company announced that we received formal notification on August 19, 2025 and August 20, 2025 from the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") regarding its previous deficiencies. On August 19, 2025, Nasdaq determined that we comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A), which requires a minimum of $10,000,000 in stockholders' equity ("Equity Rule"), based on our Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2025, evidencing stockholders’ equity of $10,448,853 . Reference is made to the April 11, 2025 notification for failure to maintain a minimum market value of listed securities of $50,000,000 over the previous 30 consecutive business days as set forth in Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) ("MVLS Rule"). As we are in compliance with the Equity Rule, Nasdaq notified us that the matter regarding the MVLS Rule is now closed. Additionally, on August 20, 2025, we received formal notification from Nasdaq, determining that for the last 10 consecutive business days, from August 5, 2025 to August 18, 2025, our market value of publicly held shares ("MVPHS") has been $5,000,000 or greater set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(C) ("MVPHS Rule"), and that we have regained compliance with the MVPHS Rule.

On October 14, 2025, we received written notice from the staff of Nasdaq Listing Qualifications (the "Staff") that it has determined to commence proceedings to delist our common stock from the Nasdaq Global Market. As previously announced in a Current Report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), on April 15, 2025, the Staff notified the Company on April 9, 2025 that, for the prior 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price of our common stock had been below the minimum of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Bid Price Rule"). The notification letter stated that we would be afforded 180 calendar days, or until October 6, 2025, to regain compliance. The Company did not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by October 6, 2025, and the listed security was subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Global Market.
On October 20, 2025, the Company submitted its request to the Nasdaq Global Market to appeal the Staff's determination to a Hearings Panel (the "Panel") pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series, which stayed the suspension of the Company's securities and the filing of a Form 25-NSE with the SEC that would remove the Company’s shares of common stock from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Company's hearing was scheduled for November 20, 2025.
On November 11, 2025, the Company announced that it received a letter Nasdaq stating that Nasdaq has determined that the Company has regained compliance with Nasdaq's Bid Price Rule requirement under Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). The Company is now in compliance with Nasdaq Global Market's listing requirements. Additionally, Nasdaq confirmed that the previously scheduled hearing before the Panel on November 20, 2025 has been canceled. The Company’s securities will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market without interruption and no further communication from Nasdaq has been received as of the date of this filing.
Reverse Stock Split
On October 27, 2025, the Company announced a one-for-thirty reverse stock split of the Company's shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Reverse Stock Split") that took effect with the commencement of business on October 27, 2025.
The Company effected the Reverse Stock Split by filing the Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Company's shares of common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Global Market, when the market opened on October 27, 2025, under the existing trading symbol "CYCU" and new CUSIP number 95758L305.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every thirty of the Company's issued shares of common stock was combined into one issued share of common stock, without any change to the par value per share and without any change in the total number of authorized shares of common stock. The number of outstanding shares of common stock was reduced from approximately 86,533,435 shares to approximately 2,884,447 shares. All disclosures affected in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including share counts and warrant counts have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.
No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise held a fraction of a share of common stock of the Company will receive a cash payment (without interest and subject to withholding taxes, as applicable) in lieu thereof at a price equal to that fraction of a share to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled, multiplied by the closing price of the Company's shares on The Nasdaq Global Market on the trading day immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and the rules and regulations of the SEC.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cycurion, Inc. (f/k/a KAE Holdings, Inc.; f/k/a Cyber Secure Solutions, Inc.) and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Cycurion Sub, Inc., Axxum Technologies LLC ("Axxum"), Cloudburst Security LLC ("Cloudburst"), and Cycurion Innovation, Inc. The unaudited consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of SLG Innovation Inc. ("SLG") as a result of the master service agreement entered into between the Cycurion and SLG. The Company has determined that the SLG master service agreement constitutes a business combination as defined by ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"). ASC 805 establishes principles and requirements as to how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized provisionally in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their estimated fair values as of March 31, 2025, and adjusted to final fair value amounts as of March 31, 2026.

On February 14, 2025, the Company completed its Business Combination with Western a special purpose acquisition company, whereby Western merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with Cycurion Sub, Inc. treated as the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the Business Combination reflect the historical results of Cycurion Sub, Inc., and the equity structure has been retroactively recast to reflect the number of shares of the Company's common stock issued in connection with the Business Combination.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation for Interim Periods
Certain information and disclosures normally included for the annual financial statements to be prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented. We believe that the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly our financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year or future periods. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. We have continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in those financial statements.
Use of Estimates
Preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company regularly assesses these estimates; however, actual results could differ from those estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience, currently available information, and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances.
Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, including those relating to revenue recognition on cost estimation on certain contracts, allowance for credit losses, certain assumptions related to share-based compensation, valuation and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The impact of changes in estimates is recorded in the period in which they become known.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts have been reclassified to improve the clarity and comparability of the financial statements. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported total assets, liabilities, equity, net (loss)/income, or cash flows for any periods presented.

The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of this ASU can be applied prospectively for reporting periods after its effective date; or follow a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the respective projects and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption; or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The ASU establishes authoritative guidance in GAAP about accounting for government grants received by business entities, clarifies the appropriate accounting, in an effort to reduce diversity in practice, and increase consistency of application across business entities. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Adoption of this ASU can be applied a modified prospective approach, a modified retrospective approach, or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The ASU clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. The objective of the amendments is to provide further clarity about the current interim disclosure requirements. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can be applied either a prospective or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification Improvements. The ASU addresses thirty-three items, representing the changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. Generally, the amendments in this Update are not intended to result in significant changes for most entities. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The adoption method of this ASU may vary, on an issue-by-issue basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The Company has reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe that any such pronouncements will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Advisory Consulting
The Company enters into service agreements with customers that will set forth the responsibilities of both parties, including the type of service to be delivered, the timing of the delivery of those services, and the associated price per unit for such services. The unit of measure in the agreement is typically hours. The advisory consulting services represent a single performance obligation, as they constitute a series of distinct hourly services that are substantially the same and transferred to the customer over time. The revenue from advisory service agreement will also set forth the timing of payments by the customers which is typically between 60 and 90 days from the date that an invoice is issued to the customer. As a practical matter, the Company continuously delivers service to customers, and the customer receives benefits from those services over time. The revenue advisory consulting is recognized over time as services are rendered, based on contractual hourly rates, and when the Company has received the aforementioned acknowledgement from its customers that service has been rendered related to hours accumulated over period of time, such as a week, or two weeks, or a month, which is determined on a customer-by-customer basis. The Company's contracts do not include terms for returns, or warranties, or guarantees, or rebates, or discounts on the services rendered. The Company also enters into annual contracts with customers to provide ongoing advisory and consulting services. Services are delivered continuously over the contract term and customers are billed periodically. The annual service contract represents a single performance obligation because the services are a series of distinct, substantially similar acts that are inseparable and transferred over time. Revenue is recognized over time straight-line over the contract term.

Managed Security Service Practice (MSSP)
Management has determined that its managed security service practice is a bundle of cybersecurity software tools, and expert 24x7x365 monitoring and breach resolution service that is accounted for as a single performance obligation that is delivered over time which is typically a month. The components of the bundle have individual commercial value. However, management believes assigning stand-alone value to each component is impractical because each component would not be able to be fully implemented or utilized if not packaged with the other components. Therefore, management believes the MSSP can only be sold as a bundle package over time. At the time that the Company recognizes revenue, it is has either already received funds in advance from its customer or it is reasonably assured that it will collect funds from its customer. In the event that funds that are received in advance, they are accounted for as contract liabilities in the deferred revenue account until the Company fulfills the performance obligation. A majority of the Company's contracts call for the Company to first deliver service and collect fees thereafter. The Company typically receives payment for these contracts within to ninety days of delivery of service. The Company does not sell monitoring time, security software-tools, and breach resolution as stand-alone services, as the customer would not receive the benefits of these items if they were not sold as an integrated package. The cybersecurity needs to monitor the customer cybersecurity environment regularly, stay up to date on cyberthreats and solutions, maintain its software tools, and then address threats identified, or rectify situations when customer environments have been breached. It is not practical or viable to sell these components separately, as customers expect comprehensive solutions. While the components are separately identifiable, management does not believe they could market the components individually. The Company's management does not believe their customers can benefit from the individual components alone, and there are not readily available resources in the market that can be obtained to make those components viable. The continuous monitoring allows the Company to identify and either neutralize and or rectify breaches by having up to the minute first-hand information, and the tools allow the Company to implement solutions rapidly. The absence of the components would render the solutions and service offering significantly devalued and non-competitive in the marketplace.
The Company believes MSSP meets the criteria to combine the goods and services under a single performance obligation. The Company believes combined integrated solution is delivered continuously over a period of time. In accordance with the terms of the contract between the Company and its customers, the Company receives prepayments in advance from its customers, and recognizes those payments to revenues over a period of time, which is typically each month.
Managed Service Provider (MSP)
The Company's managed service provider (MSP) service offering is the provision of IT infrastructure support to customers, specifically in the areas of desktop support, on-site troubleshooting, and cloud-based network infrastructure troubleshooting. This service is accounted for as a single performance obligation that is delivered over time, which is typically a month; At the time that the Company recognizes revenue, it either already received funds in advance from its customer, or it is reasonably assured that it will collect funds from its customer. In the event that funds that are received in advance, they are accounted for as contract liabilities in the deferred revenue account until the Company fulfills the performance obligation. A majority of the Company's contracts call for the Company to first deliver service and collect fees thereafter. The Company typically receives payment for these contracts within to ninety days of delivery of service.
MSP requires the integration of tools and labor in order for a customer to receive any benefit from the services provided. The Company refers to the guidance in ASC 606-10-25-19 to provide an analysis regarding this accounting recognition of this integrated service. Under MSP, the customer cannot receive any benefit purely from labor or individual software tools as a stand-alone service. The tools that the Company deploys require engineers to decipher results and develop solutions to problems during the service period covered in a contract.
While components can be separately identified, they must be used in conjunction with each other to serve the Company's customers. The Company must continuously make available support engineers to customers whenever they need support and troubleshooting. The service includes remote resolution of issues or going onsite to customer locations to solve problems. The Company's contracts with customers require the Company to have these resources available during the length of the contract. Therefore, these services are continuously delivered as a service over time. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue for such MSP contracts on a monthly basis.

Software as a service (SaaS)
Management has determined that its software as a service is a suite of cybersecurity tools that are delivered either remotely or on customer premises. The service is delivered on a monthly basis. The cybersecurity tools are typically sold as a package. However, the individual components of the suite of tools can either be sold individually or bundled together. Nevertheless, if they are sold individually, or as a bundle, they are all delivered over time. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue over time, which is typically monthly; At the time that the Company recognizes revenue it has either already received funds in advance from its customer, or it is reasonably assured that it will collect funds from its customer. In the event that funds that are received in advance, they are accounted for as contract liabilities in the deferred revenue account until the Company fulfills the performance obligation. A majority of the Company's contracts call for the Company to first deliver service and collect fees thereafter. The Company typically receives payment for these contracts within to ninety days of delivery of service.
The Company's SaaS is delivered continuously over time. It is a subscription service where the Company provisions a suite of security software tools to its customers accessed via the internet that allows the customers to protect themselves from cyber-attacks using multiple tools within the suite. This subscription service is recognized to revenue monthly.

6. BUSINESS COMBINATION
SLG Innovation, Inc.
SLG is a technology services firm with operations and client contracts deemed to be strategically complementary to the Company's existing business and long-term growth objectives. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had initiated discussions regarding the potential acquisition of SLG and had advanced a non-refundable deposit of $1,401,923 for cash advances, loans, capitalized transaction costs and accounts receivable arising from prior business dealings with SLG. On May 13, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire substantially all of SLG's assets and certain liabilities, which included a termination right exercisable at the Company's sole discretion prior to December 31, 2021. This agreement was subsequently amended to limit the acquisition to certain specified assets, primarily identifiable sales contracts.
As of December 31, 2024, the refundable deposit had increased to $2,000,000 , comprising $561,808 in cash advances and loans, $20,000 in due diligence costs, and $1,418,192 in accounts receivable.
On April 29, 2023, the Company and SLG executed a unidirectional letter of intent ("SLG LOI"), which bound SLG to the transaction but did not obligate the Company. The SLG LOI provided that, unless terminated by the Company on or before April 30, 2024, the Company would proceed to acquire SLG or substantially all of its assets and liabilities through a structure to be finalized. The agreed-upon valuation included the $2,000,000 receivable, $2,136,445 in SLG payables to RCR Technology Corporation (excluding payables incurred within 90 days prior to closing), and 33,212 shares of the Company's capital stock.
In connection with the potential SLG transaction, the Company entered into a separate unidirectional letter of intent with RCR ("RCR LOI") on April 29, 2023, under which the Company would acquire SLG's payables owed to RCR, subject to the closing of the potential SLG transaction. Consideration for the RCR transaction was to be settled in the form of shares of common stock of the Company, as specified in the RCR LOI.
The transaction contemplated by the SLG LOI did not close and the Company does not expect that it will close. In lieu of such transaction, and consistent with the economic and business relationship between SLG and the Company for more than the past two years, on March 31, 2025, the Company and SLG entered into a Management Services Agreement (the "MSA"), pursuant to which SLG memorialized its formal engagement of the Company to provide the Management Services (as defined in the MSA) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein. The parties agreed that the Company would continue to retain sole and absolute discretion to select its employees and/or independent contractors who would perform and support the Management Services; provided that the compensation paid to any such persons shall not exceed the compensation that would have been paid to a comparable, unaffiliated third party on a commercial, arms-length basis. SLG agreed to cooperate in good faith with the Company in furtherance of its continued performance of the Management Services.
In connection with the Management Services to be provided by the Company, SLG agreed to pay a fee equal to SLG's "operational cash flow" (whether or not the inbound funds included were recognized as revenue under U.S. GAAP and whether or not the outbound funds were recognized as expenses under U.S. GAAP during the relevant reporting period). For purposes of the MSA, "operational cash flow" means (i) all cash and cash-equivalencies received by, or on behalf of, SLG from any source for any reason during any reporting period minus (ii) all payments made by, or on behalf of, SLG, all in connection with SLG's business as historically operated and as managed by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the MSA. If SLG's operational cash flow during any reporting period is negative, then the Company reserves the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to advance funds to SLG in an amount not to exceed such negative cash flow during such period with an interest rate to be determined on a case-by-case basis.

7. GOODWILL
Acquisition of Axxum Technologies, LLC.
On November 22, 2017, the Company entered into a share transfer agreement with Axxum and the two prior members of Axxum to purchase 100 % of the members' equity interest in the Company in exchange for $6,500,000 in cash and $500,000 in two subordinated convertible promissory notes for $250,000 each, payable to the two members of Axxum. Accordingly, Axxum became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company assessed the carrying value of Axxum’s assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition and determined that the carrying value of those accounts approximated fair value. The difference between the purchase price paid for the acquisition of Axxum and the net asset value derived from the assets and liabilities of Axxum at the date of acquisition has been recognized as goodwill. Accordingly, the purchase costs of $6,500,000 in cash, $500,000 in promissory notes, and $140,005 in capitalized transaction costs, less $573,150 in adjustment in working capital that is recoverable from sellers resulted in a total purchase cost of $6,566,855 . The net asset value of Axxum at the date of acquisition was $1,413,589 . Accordingly, the Company recognized $5,153,266 in goodwill related to the acquisition of Axxum.
Acquisition of Cloudburst Security, LLC.
On April 3, 2019, the Company entered into a membership interest purchase agreement with Cloudburst and its two equity holders to purchase 100 % of the issued and outstanding units in exchange for $500,000 in cash; $540,000 for a promissory note to one equity holder and $360,000 to the other; and 111,628 and 74,420 shares of the Company’s common stock to the two equity holders, respectively, on a post-split basis. Accordingly, Cloudburst became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company assessed the carrying value of Cloudburst’s assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition and determined that the carrying value of those accounts approximated fair value; the difference between the purchase price paid for the acquisition of Cloudburst and the net asset value derived from the assets and liabilities of Cloudburst at the date of acquisition has been recognized as goodwill. The purchase costs of $500,000 in cash, $900,000 in promissory notes, $300,000 in 186,048 shares of the Company’s common stock, $1,400,000 in contingent earnout, $62,305 in capitalized transaction costs, resulted in a total purchase cost of $3,162,305 . The net asset value of Cloudburst at the date of acquisition was $323,267 . Accordingly, the Company recognized $2,839,038 in goodwill related to the acquisition of Cloudburst. On April 20, 2022, the holders of the (i) $900,000 promissory notes and (ii) 186,048 shares of the Company's common stock tendered them to the Company for cancellation.
Relevant factors to the Company's assessment of the carrying value of goodwill for both business combinations in accordance to the fair value hierarchy under the category of level 3 are as follows: estimation of the growth rate of future incoming and outgoing cash flows, certain elements that comprise the appropriate weighted average cost of capital, such as the equity of potential market participants for comparability analysis, and the Company's sensitivity to outside factors that would lead to variation in the aforementioned cash flows and weighted average cost of capital.
The Company's management reviewed the performance of Cloudburst and its manager during the year ended December 31, 2020 and determined that Cloudburst had not met the performance targets set forth at the time of acquisition. As a result, the manager of Cloudburst was dismissed. Management of the Company performed a quantitative analysis of the carrying value of the subsidiary and its related goodwill by preparing a future discounted cash flow analysis, which included variables such as expectations on future cash flows, calculation of the cost of capital, and the probability of capturing certain contracts under the framework of Cloudburst being a federal government approved service provider, and determined that the fair value as of December 31, 2020 was lower than the carrying value that was previously established at the point of acquisition; accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company determined that the contingent earnout should be de-recognized, and written off in its entirety in the amount of $1,400,000 to the Company's result of operations, and, as a result of the above assessment, the Company recognized an impairment of goodwill in the amount of $1,400,000 that was also recognized to the Company's results of operations. The Company's ending goodwill related to the acquisition of Cloudburst after recognizing impairment was $1,439,038 .
SLG Innovation Inc. Master Service Agreement
The Company initiated discussions to acquire SLG in late 2020, advancing an initial non-refundable deposit of $1.4 million for loans, capitalized transaction costs, and accounts receivable. By December 31, 2024, this deposit had increased to $2.0 million. On May 13, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire substantially all of SLG's assets and certain liabilities, later amended to focus on specific sales contracts. A unidirectional letter of intent (LOI) was executed on April 29, 2023, binding SLG to the transaction while allowing the Company the option to proceed. The LOI contemplated a structure involving the $2.0 million receivable, $2.1 million in SLG payables to RCR Technology Corporation, and 33,212 shares of the Company’s capital stock.

On March 31, 2025, the Company finalized the MSA and Burns Release Agreement for SLG. The total purchase consideration included the $2.0 million prepaid deposit, 33,609 shares of common stock (par value $0.0001 ), 51 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (face value $10,000 each, conversion price $1.00 ) and $10,814,147 of accounts receivable in Cycurion owing from SLG. Additionally, the Company issued 16,667 shares of common stock to assume SLG's share-based payment obligations.
The transaction was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805. As of the transaction date, the fair value of assets acquired totaled $3.1 million, excluding cash of $34,983 that was netted against cash consideration paid. Liabilities assumed amounted to $10.6 million, including accounts payable, accrued liabilities, payroll liabilities and loans. After recognizing a non-controlling interest of $3.5 million, the net assets acquired were negative $7.6 million. The total consideration transferred exceeded the net assets acquired, resulting in the recognition of goodwill amounting to $14.6 million. This goodwill reflects the strategic value of SLG's operations, expected synergies, and future growth potential.

The Company has authorized 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, issuable from time to time in one or more series.
The Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the board of directors to establish one or more series of preferred stock. Unless required by law or by any stock exchange, and subject to the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized shares of preferred stock will be available for issuance without further action by holders of common stock. The board of directors is able to determine, with respect to any series of preferred stock, designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, if any.
The Company could issue a series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of the series, impede or discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which the stockholders might receive a premium over the market price of the common stock. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may adversely affect the rights of stockholders by restricting dividends on the common stock, diluting the voting power of the common stock or subordinating the rights of stockholders to distributions upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or other event. As a result of these or other factors, the issuance of preferred stock could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock.

The Company has accounted for the issuance of common stock and warrants issued for cash proceeds in the private placements as equity instruments. Management believes that the warrants are indexed to and are settled in the Company's own common stock; therefore, they should be accounted for as permanent equity.
Public Warrants
As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 383,333 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the initial public offering. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If neither that exemption nor another exemption is available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.
The Public Warrants will expire on February 14, 2030, five years after the completion of the Business Combination with Cycurion or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
•in whole and not in part
•at a price of $0.30 per Public Warrant;
•upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;
•if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the shares of common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period commencing at any time after the Public Warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and
•if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the Public Warrants.

Table of Contents
If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable, we may not exercise our redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or we are unable to effect such registration or qualification. We will use our best efforts to register or qualify such shares of common stock under the blue-sky laws of those states in which such Public Warrants were offered by us in the offering.
If we call the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, we will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its Public Warrant to do so on a "cashless basis." If we take advantage of this option, all holders of Public Warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their Public Warrants for the number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the Public Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the Public Warrants and the "fair market value" (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The "fair market value" for this purpose means the average reported last sale price of the common stock for the trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Public Warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of common stock to be received upon exercise of the Public Warrants, including the "fair market value" in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a Public Warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the Public Warrants.
PIPE Warrants
On January 11, 2022, concurrently with the completion of the Business Combination, pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, dated January 11, 2022 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the "PIPE Subscription Agreement") for an aggregate purchase price of $3,760,000 , Western issued an aggregate of 12,533 shares of common stock issued in a private placement (the "PIPE Financing") pursuant to that certain PIPE Subscription Agreement and 12,533 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain warrants (the "PIPE Warrants") issued in the PIPE Financing.
Each outstanding whole PIPE Warrant and public warrant ("Public Warrant") issued in connection with the initial public offering of Western represents the right to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time commencing 30 days after the Business Combination with Western and ending five years after the Business Combination.
The PIPE Warrants, as well as any warrants underlying additional units issued to the Western Acquisition Ventures Sponsor, LLC (the "Sponsor") or our officers, directors or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans, are identical to the Public Warrants except that the PIPE Warrants (i) will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and (ii) will not be redeemable by us, in each case so long as they are still held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 12,533
In addition, if we, at any time while the Public Warrants or PIPE Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of common stock on account of such shares of common stock (or other shares of our capital stock into which the Public Warrants or PIPE Warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of common stock in connection with a proposed initial business combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of common stock in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100 % of our common stock if we do not complete our initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of this offering (or up to 18 months from the closing of the offering at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions or as extended by our stockholders in accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders' rights or pre-initial business combination activity, or (e) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our initial business combination, then the Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of common stock in respect of such event.
If the number of outstanding shares of common stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of each Public Warrant and PIPE Warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of common stock.

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of common stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares of common stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding shares of common stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of ours as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants and in lieu of the shares of common stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the Public Warrants or PIPE Warrants (as applicable) would have received if such holder had exercised their Public Warrants or PIPE Warrant (as applicable) immediately prior to such event.
The Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants are issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any mistake, or defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Public Warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of Public Warrants.

Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company's control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders' equity.

These legal proceedings seek various remedies, including claims for monetary damages in varying amounts, none of which are considered material, or are unspecified as to amount.

Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, and units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, if any, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement that was signed on the date of the IPO. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and "piggyback" registration rights.

The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Business Combination Marketing Agreement
The Company entered into a business combination marketing agreement on January 11, 2022 (the "Business Combination Marketing Agreement") with A.G.P. whereby A.G.P. is to act as an advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist the Company in holding meetings with its stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business' attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s securities in connection with a Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining stockholders' approval for a Business Combination, and assist the Company with its press releases and public filings in connection with a Business Combination. The Company was to pay A.G.P. a fee for such marketing services upon the consummation of a Business Combination in an amount equal to 4.5 % of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $5,175,000 in the aggregate (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees that might become payable). The Business Combination Marketing Agreement will be terminated upon entry into the Advisory Agreement (defined below).
Advisory Agreement with A.G.P.
A.G.P. was a financial advisor to both Western in connection with the Business Combination transaction. Upon the completion of the Business Combination, A.G.P.: (i) received a cash fee of $500,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 16,667 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $150.00 per share. Pursuant to the advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"), Western shall pay A.G.P. a total transaction fee equal to $2,500,000 (the "Transaction Fee") upon the closing of the Business Combination. The Transaction Fee will be payable in the form of preferred shares of Cycurion that are convertible into 16,667 shares of common stock (such preferred shares or the common stock into which they convert, the "Transaction Fee Shares"), for a price per share of common stock equal to $5.00 .

This restriction shall remain in effect beginning on the Lock-Up Termination Date and ending on the date on which 100 % of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of the closing is converted into shares of our common stock.
The parties amended the Advisory Agreement (the "Amended Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which Western shall pay A.G.P. the Transaction Fee in the form of preferred shares of Cycurion that are convertible into 166,667 shares of common stock (such preferred shares or the common stock into which they convert, the "Amended Transaction Fee Shares"), for a price per share of common stock of $0.50 . A portion of the Amended Transaction Fee Shares shall be subject to forfeiture and return to the Company for cancellation once A.G.P. converts and sells Transaction Fee Shares generating sales proceeds (excluding commissions) of $2,500,000 .
The Amended Transaction Fee Shares shall be subject to a lock-up ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which 75 % of the outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is converted into shares of the Combined Company's common stock and (ii) six months from the Lock-Up Termination Date. After the Lock-Up Termination Date, A.G.P. may convert the Amended Transaction Fee Shares and sell them subject to a leak-out provision that limits A.G.P.'s sales of Amended Transaction Fee Shares on any given date to 10 % of the cumulative trading volume of the common stock for such date (including pre-market, market and post-market trading) as reported by Bloomberg, LP.

Following the closing of the Business Combination on February 14, 2025 and in connection with the Revised Engagement Letter, we issued to Seward & Kissel 8,333 shares of common stock and a pre-funded warrant that is exercisable for approximately $1.3 million in shares of common stock (the "Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant"); provided that once the net proceeds from the sale of the shares equals the Legal Fees, the remaining shares of common stock, including such common stock exercisable under the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant, shall be returned to the Cycurion. We plan to enter into an exchange agreement with Seward & Kissel to exchange the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant for a convertible promissory note that is convertible into such number of shares equal to the Legal Fees.
On February 14, 2025, Cycurion entered into pre-funded warrant with Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant that is exercisable for approximately $1.3 million in shares of common stock, or up to 83,333 shares of common stock; provided that once the net proceeds from the sale of the shares equals the $1.3 million in Legal, the remaining shares of common stock, including such common stock exercisable under the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant, shall be returned to Cycurion.
The Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant provides that the holder may not exercise any portion of the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant to the extent that immediately prior to or after giving effect to such exercise the holder would own more than 4.99% upon 61 days' prior notice. The exercise price for each share of common stock underlying the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.0030 . The Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant is immediately exercisable upon issuance and may be exercised at any time until the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant is exercised in full.
Seward & Kissel LLP may not exercise any portion of the warrants or Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant, as applicable, to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant.
In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon exercise of the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of our common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Seward & Kissel Pre-Funded Warrant.
Agreement with Baker & Hostetler LLP
In 2023, Western agreed to pay approximately $788,030 of its obligations to its counsel, Baker Hostetler LLP, in shares of common stock following the Business Combination, which will be issued at a price per share equal to $10.00 , or 2,627 shares.
Equity Line of Credit
Equity Purchase Agreement
On April 7, 2025 (the "Execution Date"), we entered into the Equity Purchase Agreement with Yield Point NYC LLC ("Yield Point"). Under the Equity Purchase Agreement, we have the right, but not the obligation, to direct Yield Point to purchase up to $60.0 million (the "Maximum Commitment Amount") in shares of our common stock upon satisfaction of certain terms and conditions contained in the Equity Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, an effective registration statement filed with the SEC registering the resale of the shares of Put Stock (defined below) and the shares of Commitment Stock (defined below) and additional shares to be sold to Yield Point from time to time under the Equity Purchase Agreement. The term of the Equity Purchase Agreement began on the Execution Date and ends on the earlier of (i) the date on which Yield Point shall have purchased shares of common stock issued, or that we shall be entitled to issue, per any applicable Put Notice (defined below) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Equity Purchase Agreement (the "Put Stock") equal to the Maximum Commitment Amount, (ii) the date that is twelve (12 ) months from the date the registration statement is declared effective, (iii) written notice of termination by us to Yield Point (which shall not occur at any time that Yield Point holds any of the shares of Put Stock), or (iv) written notice of termination by Yield Point to us pursuant to (the "Commitment Period").
39
Table of Contents
During the Commitment Period, we may direct Yield Point to purchase shares of Put Stock by delivering a notice (a "Put Notice") to Yield Point. We shall, in our sole discretion, select the number of shares of Put Stock requested in each Put Notice. However, such amount may not exceed the Maximum Put Amount (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement). The purchase price to be paid by Yield Point for the shares of Put Stock will be ninety percent (90 %) of the lowest trade of the common stock on the Principal Market during the Valuation Period (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement).
In consideration for Yield Point's execution and delivery of, and performance under the Equity Purchase Agreement, on the Execution Date, we, in our discretion, either were to (i) pay to Yield Point in cash $1.8 million ("Commitment Cash") or (ii) issue the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant (as defined below) to Yield Point in a form acceptable to Yield Point in its sole discretion and having an exercise price per share of $0.0030 , for Yield Point's purchase of shares of common stock (the "Commitment Stock") having a value of $1.8 million based on closing price of the common stock on April 6, 2025. We chose to issue the Pre-Funded Warrant. All of the shares of Commitment Stock were fully earned as of the Execution Date, and the issuance of the shares of Commitment Stock is not contingent upon any other event or condition, including, without limitation, the effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement (defined below) or our submission of a Put Notice to Yield Point and irrespective of any termination of the Equity Purchase Agreement.
In accordance with the Equity Purchase Agreement, a registration statement on Form S-1 (the "Initial Registration Statement") covering only the resale of the shares of Put Stock and Commitment Stock was filed with the SEC on May 7, 2025.
Pre-Funded Warrant
The pre-funded warrant with Yield Point (the "Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant") certifies that, for value received, Yield Point is entitled to be issued up to 150,000 shares of common stock as its commitment fee ("Commitment Fee") and has an initial exercise price of $0.003 per share. The Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant was offered for the Commitment Fee in connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement for shares of common stock, and provides that the holder may not exercise any portion of the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant to the extent that immediately prior to or after giving effect to such exercise the holder would own more than 4.99%, which ownership cap may be increased by the holder up to 9.99% upon 61 days’ prior notice. The exercise price for each share of common stock underlying the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.003 . The Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant is immediately exercisable upon issuance and may be exercised at any time until the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant is exercised in full.
A holder of the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant may not exercise any portion of the warrants or Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant, as applicable, to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the holder’s option upon issuance, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant.
In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon exercise of the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of our common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrant.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, 150,000 of these shares have been exercised, therefore as of December 31, 2025, all Yield Point Pre-Funded Warrants have been exercised.
Registration Rights Agreement
On April 7, 2025 (the "RRA Execution Date"), in connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement with Yield Point (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which we shall, by May 7, 2025, file with the SEC the Initial Registration Statement covering the maximum number of (i) shares of Commitment Stock, (ii) shares of Put Stock, which have been, or which may, from time to time be issued, including without limitation all of the shares of common stock which have been issued or will be issued to Yield Point under the Equity Purchase Agreement (without regard to any limitation or restriction on purchases), and (iii) any and all shares of capital stock issued or issuable with respect to the Put Stock, Commitment Stock, and the Equity Purchase Agreement as a result of any stock split, combination, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange, or similar event, or otherwise, without regard to any limitation on purchases under the Equity Purchase Agreement (the "Registrable Securities"), as shall be permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations, and interpretations so as to permit the resale of the Registrable Securities by Yield Point, including, but not limited to, under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices). The Initial Registration Statement shall register only Registrable Securities. The Initial Registration Statement and any amendment thereto was declared effective by the SEC in May 2025.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IR Act") was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.
41
Table of Contents
Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the business combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a business combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any "PIPE" or other equity issuances in connection with a business combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a business combination but issued within the same taxable year of a business combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a business combination and in the Company's ability to complete a business combination.
As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 the Company's stockholders have redeemed a total of 380,701 1.2
20. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued which is up to and through May 14, 2026. There are two types of subsequent events: (i) recognized, or those that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing consolidated financial statements, and (ii) nonrecognized, or those that provide evidence with respect to conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose subsequent to that date.
During the period April 1, 2026 through May 12, 2026, the Company raised approximately $2.3 million through sales of its common stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement with Yield Point, pursuant to which the Company issued and aggregate 3,080,000 shares of common stock.
On April 21, 2026, the Company provided an update on the revised non-binding memorandum of understanding with Kustom Entertainment, Inc. ("Kustom") for the acquisition of Kustom's legacy video solutions segment. The transaction is expected to contribute approximately $5.1 million in annual revenue and an estimated $8.0 million backlog comprised of established contracts and recurring subscription revenue.
On May 7, 2026, the Company announced it has executed a binding agreement to acquire Halo Privacy, an industry-leading secure communications company, and fully integrate its elite digital investigations and attribution arm, HavenX. The Company expects to close the transaction within 45 days. This acquisition builds on Cycurion's disciplined growth strategy by delivering innovative new products and capabilities that directly address its clients' evolving needs for security, privacy, proactive threat defense and operational efficiency.

Risk Factors" and in "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" at the beginning of this Form 10-K.
General and Business Overview
We were originally incorporated as KAE Holdings, Inc., under the laws of the State of Delaware in 2017, with the purpose of acquiring and holding operating entities in the cybersecurity industry. On July 14, 2020, we changed our corporate name from KAE Holdings, Inc. to Cyber Secure Solutions, Inc., and, on February 24, 2021, to Cycurion, Inc.
We have two first-tier wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cycurion Sub, Inc. (formerly Cycurion, Inc., until February 14, 2025) and Cycurion Crypto, a Delaware corporation formed in July 2025, and three indirectly wholly-owned second-tier subsidiaries: (i) Axxum, a Virginia limited liability company formed in December 2006, (ii) Cloudburst, a Virginia limited liability company formed in January 2007, and (iii) Cycurion Innovation, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in September 2021, in connection with our acquisition of assets from Sabres, a leading Israeli-based cybersecurity provider.
We deliver high-quality, cybersecurity solutions to federal government civilian, defense, and judiciary agencies in addition to commercial clients across a variety of industries. We, through our operating subsidiaries and strategic partnerships, have numerous prime and subcontracts with key government agencies. Our growth engine is driven by organic business solutions and strategic acquisitions of cyber/ infrastructure service providers.
Our Subsidiaries
Cycurion Sub, Inc.
We own our operating subsidiaries through Cycurion Sub., Inc., a Delaware corporation that, until the closing date of the de-SPAC, was known as "Cycurion, Inc." We continue to conduct our business through the three below-described entities, which are now indirectly wholly-owned second-tier subsidiaries by virtue of the recent closing of the de-SPAC transaction.
Cycurion Crypto Inc.
Our direct wholly-owned subsidiary, Cycurion Crypto, a Delaware corporation, was formed in July 2025 as part of our strategic initiative to position the Company within the expanding digital asset ecosystem and will manage a crypto treasury.
Axxum Technologies LLC
Organized in the Commonwealth of Virginia on December 29, 2006, Axxum is a cybersecurity provider with successful assignments within the multiple sub-agencies of the Department of Homeland Security. We acquired Axxum in November 2017. Following the acquisition, we continued Axxum's core operations of providing contractor services to its existing federal government customer base while leveraging our existing processes and tools to expand its commercial footprint.
Cloudburst Security LLC
Cloudburst is a cybersecurity provider with successful assignments within highly sensitive government agencies and other commercial organizations. We acquired Cloudburst in April 2019. Following the acquisition, we continued Cloudburst’s core operations of providing mission-critical and highly sensitive government agencies and other commercial organizations with high-quality, innovative cybersecurity services. Cloudburst focuses on providing tailored solutions that leverage the industry's best minds and technologies to predict, protect, detect, respond, and sustain our clients from the latest evolving cyber threats.

Cycurion Innovation, Inc.
Cycurion Innovation, Inc. was formed in connection with our acquisition of assets from Sabres, a leading Israeli-based cybersecurity provider. It operates our Cycurion Security Platform’s line of products allows our customers to improve their cyber posture with its MDP SaaS platform. This platform efficiently bundles and easily implements the external protection of a WAF and the internal protection of Bot Mitigation. Bot Mitigation is the reduction of risk to applications, Application Program Interfaces ("APIs"), and backend services from malicious bot traffic that fuels common automated attacks, such as DoS campaigns and vulnerability probing. The costs of single-layer security can be measured in terms of money, time, and risk, as well as the damage wrought by a data breach, which millions of businesses experience each year. Through this interaction of the WAF and Bot Mitigation, the MDP is able to reinforce these layers of security and generate new security layers in real time in response to emerging threats. This process is directed by our Cycurion Security Platform's proprietary, cloud-based AI algorithm. Crucially, the AI underpinning the MDP platform is constantly evolving to counter new threats. Through a crowdsourcing process, the cloud-based MDP learns from every threat to any protected application and uses that newly acquired knowledge to protect all MDP clients better.
Master Service Agreement with SLG Innovation, Inc.
The SLG team has an average of over 25 years of experience in the development, planning, implementation, and management of information systems. SLG's leadership team offers years of combined success in answering the needs of government agencies and healthcare organizations across the country.
The SLG team has worked nationally, as it has served over 25 Department of Health and Human Services agencies, all 50 state governments, and over 250 local governments. Since SLG's inception, it has primarily focused on customers in the middle of the country. The team of professionals has successfully delivered information technology, project management, and subject matter services to key health and human service projects, including, but not limited to, state Medicaid programs in Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, and Tennessee, the Indiana Division of Aging, Illinois Early Intervention, the University of Illinois Division of Specialized Care for Children, the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, and many more.
We established a subcontractor — prime contractor relationship with SLG in the fall of 2019, where we serviced several government agencies and commercial customers, State of New Mexico, Cognizant, KPMG, and the University of Illinois in support of SLG. Axxum Technologies and SLG Innovation that relationship in 2020. A subcontractor offers its specialized services to a prime contractor. Unlike prime contractors, who focus on the managerial side of the government contract, subcontractors tend to dedicate their efforts to lending subject matter expertise and delivery of service to the project. Technically strong subcontractors, along with a strong subcontractor plan are essential to boost the success of a project.
As a result of the strong technical skills and experience of the cyber teams at Cycurion and its subsidiaries, SLG Innovation entered into a Master Services Agreement ("MSA") with Axxum Technologies to provide services to SLG customers. The MSA is task order driven and the number of task orders is modified periodically depending on actual customer requirements for IT and cybersecurity services. Over the last three years, Axxum Technologies has assisted SLG Innovation in growing its revenue and customer base. As a result, SLG Innovation now represents a majority of Cycurion revenues.
RCR Acquisition Agreement
RCR Technology Corporation ("RCR") performs certain services for SLG in its role as an SLG subcontractor and, in that context, became a creditor of SLG. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the term sheet with SLG (the "SLG Term Sheet"), on April 25, 2023, Cycurion Sub and RCR also entered into a term sheet (the "RCR Term Sheet") for a distinct, but related transaction. The RCR Term Sheet contemplates a transaction, pursuant to which RCR will sell to Cycurion all of the accounts receivable of SLG in favor of RCR (but for those accounts that are less than 90 days old as of the date of consummation of the contemplated transaction). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the RCR Term Sheet is contingent upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the SLG Term Sheet. We consummated the transactions contemplated by the RCR Term Sheet on September 25, 2025. Cycurion issued 248,006 shares of common stock to RCR as a result of the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the RCR Term Sheet pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated September 25, 2025.
The foregoing brief summary description of certain terms and provisions of the RCR Term Sheet does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the RCR Term Sheet, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibit 10.13 and the full text of the RCR Term Sheet amendments, a copy of each of which are filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibit 10.13a, 10.13b, 10.13c and 10.13d. Readers are encouraged to read those Exhibits in full for a more comprehensive understanding of the transaction contemplated by the RCR Term Sheet.

Acquisition of Technology
On September 30, 2021, we acquired certain technology assets of Sabres, a leading Israeli-based cybersecurity provider. As part of the asset purchase agreement, we acquired Multi-Dimensional Protection ("MDP"), WAF and Bot Mitigation SaaS platforms, and their associated intellectual property.
Our Cycurion Security Platform's (formerly Sabres') line of products allows our customers to improve their cyber posture with its MDP SaaS platform. This platform efficiently bundles and easily implements the external protection of a WAF and the internal protection of Bot Mitigation. Bot Mitigation is the reduction of risk to applications, APIs, and backend services from malicious bot traffic that fuels common automated attacks, such as DoS campaigns and vulnerability probing. The costs of single-layer security can be measured in terms of money, time, and risk, as well as the damage wrought by a data breach, which millions of businesses experience each year. Through this interaction of the WAF and Bot Mitigation, the MDP is able to reinforce these layers of security and generate new security layers in real time in response to emerging threats. This process is directed by our Cycurion Security Platform's (formerly Sabres') proprietary, cloud-based AI algorithm. We do not have AI processing in the production version of the software. That version is in the testing and evaluation phase. Crucially, the AI underpinning the MDP platform is constantly evolving to counter new threats. Through a crowdsourcing process, the cloud-based MDP learns from every threat to any protected application and uses that newly acquired knowledge to protect all MDP clients better.
Our Cycurion Security Platform's (formerly Sabres') line of products provides solutions for substantially all web application security needs. These products provide solutions, whether a client is in need of a web application firewall to comply with regulations and ensure it has a first line of defense against the hazards that the internet can present or is in need of enterprise-level products that empower SOC teams and security management. Our Cycurion Security Platform's constantly survey a client's data to detect security issues in need of attention, send automatic updates, and provide the client with a complete database of rules and threats.
We have integrated the technology assets that we acquired from Sabres (which now constitutes our Cycurion Security Platform) into our Managed Security Services Practice. We believe that the platform will enhance our service offerings and assist with the expansion of our commercial business. Our dedicated support team will manage the Sabres platform, provide real time reporting, response to security incidents, and will manage all data privacy needs from a single security information and event management SaaS platform dashboard.

Revenue
Revenues for the three months March 31, 2026 decreased $0.6 million or 15.5% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. We attribute this decrease in the revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 to planned wind-down of certain legacy contracts ahead of the ramp of higher-margin replacement work and the delayed start dates of new federal, state and local contracts.
Cost of revenues
The cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was approximately $2.6 million, compared to $3.2 million for comparable period in 2025. The gross margin improved from 17.5 % to 21.1 % as management focuses on cost cutting efforts and works to improve the overall portfolio of contracts.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased significantly for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due to the additional expenses associated with being a publicly traded company, full consolidation of SLG selling, general and administrative expenses and the addition of key individuals for the company's growth strategy.

The $0.1 million gain on debt settlement, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 is the result of the conversion of debt to various equity instruments at a lower fair market value than the exchanged debt on the books. No conversions occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash from operations, borrowings under our debt financing arrangements and equity raises through our equity line. As of March 31, 2026, we had $2.0 million in cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2026, there was substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, as the Company had a net working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit resulting from substantial losses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and from prior periods. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to market and sell its products to generate positive operating cash flows. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $29.0 million and a working capital deficit of $12.0 million. In addition, the Company had a net cash outflow of $2.9 million from operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026. These circumstances continued to give rise to substantial doubt as to whether the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and did not alleviate the doubt outstanding from 2025.
Management's plan is to continue improving operations to generate positive cash flows and register shares of its common stock in order to undertake a public offering to raise additional capital. Management believes that the valuation and liquidity brought by a public offering of its securities will allow holders of convertibles notes, and convertible preferred stockholders the mechanism to convert their securities into common stock that will reduce the Company's overall leverage and debt service requirement. If the Company is not able to continue generating positive operating cash flows, and raise additional capital, there is the risk that the Company may become insolvent.

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used by operating activities was $2.9 million, compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The slight increase in cash used in operating activities is the result numerous factors since the first quarter of 2025 had many business combinations expenses. The company has expanded the corporate level team compared to first quarter 2025, but has been able to partially offset some of those cash outflows by focusing on cost saving initiatives through the organization.
Net Cash (Used in)/Provided By Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in by investing activities was approximately $0.1 million, compared to $1.8 million net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The cash inflow in 2025 was a result of the Trust Account in connection with redemption and cash released from the Trust Account to the Company.
Net Cash (Used in)/Provided by Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used by financing activities was $0.2 million, which was repayments on the revolving line of credit. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $3.2 million, driven by $3.3 million in proceeds from exercise of warrants, partially offset by cash outflow of $1.0 million related to the redemption of common stock subject to redemption. Other inflows and outflows are the result of various proceeds and repayments on notes and bank borrowings.
Going Concern
We have incurred operating losses since inception through the period ended March 31, 2026, having had negative cash flow from operations. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $29.0 million, as compared to our accumulated deficit of approximately $26.9 million as of December 31, 2025. The increase of our accumulated deficit was a result of our net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Furthermore, we expect continued, significant operating losses for the next few years. We also utilized cash in operations of approximately $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, we had unrestricted cash of approximately $2.0 million, a decrease of $3.2 million from approximately $5.3 million as of December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, our total assets decreased to approximately $31.4 million from approximately $33.5 million as of December 31, 2025, primarily due to decreases in cash. Based on our current capital resources as of March 31, 2026, including our unrestricted cash and accounts receivable, net of $5.4 million, we expect to be able to continue our operations for a minimum of 12 months as of the date of this report. Nevertheless, our continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing until we can generate sufficient, consistent cash flow from operations to meet the expected growth in our obligations. We intend to continue to seek additional debt or equity financing to continue our operations.
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies we may not continue to meet our obligations and continue our operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of our Company as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until we begin generating positive cash flow.
There is no assurance that we will ever be consistently profitable or, notwithstanding our recent financing activities, that debt or equity financing will be available to us in the amounts, on terms, and at times deemed acceptable to us, if at all. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business, as planned, and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations for our business, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements during the periods presented, and we do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the SEC rules and regulations.
