Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Giftify, Inc. filed its Q3 2025 report, showing lower sales but improved margins and a narrower loss. Q3 net sales were $18.8M versus $23.2M a year ago. Gross profit rose to $3.7M from $3.0M as cost of sales fell, while operating expenses declined to $6.2M from $6.8M. The company reported a Q3 net loss of $2.4M, better than a $4.1M loss last year. For the nine months, revenue was $62.0M vs. $64.8M and net loss was $8.2M vs. $15.0M.

Liquidity remains tight. Cash was $4.0M at September 30, 2025. Total liabilities decreased to $11.0M, and stockholders’ equity was $21.2M. The company disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses and funding needs.

Financing steps included activity on a revolving line of credit with $2.7M outstanding, retiring a $2.0M related-party note, and adding a new $1.0M secured note at 11.5%. Equity raises comprised an ATM sale ($1.44M net), a public offering of 600,000 shares ($478k net), and private placements ($1.14M net). The company also closed the Takeout7 acquisition for $609k in stock. Shares outstanding were 30,963,913 as of November 4, 2025.

Negative

Insights

Margins improved and losses narrowed, but going concern risk persists.

Giftify delivered better gross profit and lower operating costs year over year, cutting its Q3 net loss to $2.44M from $4.06M. Nine‑month revenue of $61.96M was slightly below last year, but the nine‑month loss improved to $8.24M. This reflects tighter cost control and a more favorable mix.

Liquidity remains a constraint. Cash was $4.02M, with a revolving line showing $2.69M outstanding. The company retired a $2.0M related‑party note and added a $1.0M secured note at 11.5%, indicating reliance on higher‑cost debt. Management again notes substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern.

Execution hinges on sustaining gross margin gains and access to capital. Recent equity raises (ATM, public, private) provided cash, and the Takeout7 deal ($609k in stock) expands technology offerings. Subsequent filings may detail additional funding or covenant status if conditions change.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report contains statements reflecting our views about our future performance that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (Reform Act). Statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act are generally identified through the inclusion of words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “drive,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “goal,” “guidance,” “intend,” “may,” “objective,” “outlook,” “plan,” “position,” “potential,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “will” or similar statements or variations of such words and other similar expressions. All statements addressing our future operating performance, and statements addressing events and developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act. These forward-looking statements are based on currently available information, operating plans and projections about future events and trends. They inherently involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in any such forward-looking statement. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Form 10-K”) as updated by “Part II, Item 1A” of this report, which should be considered when evaluating our trends and future results. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The discussion of risks in this report is by no means all-inclusive but is designed to highlight what we believe are important factors to consider when evaluating our future performance.

GIFTIFY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

(Unaudited)

 

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Giftify, Inc. (the “Company” or “Giftify”) was formed in 2011. Since 2020, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Restaurant.com, Inc., has been in the business of connecting digital consumers, businesses and communities with dining and merchant deal options throughout the United States.

 

In December 2023, the Company acquired CardCash Exchange Inc (“CardCash”, see Note 3). CardCash was formed in 2013 and purchases merchant gift cards and resells them at a markup.

 

In May 2025, the Company acquired Takeout7 Inc (“Takeout7”, see Note 3). Takeout7 is a restaurant technology company offering comprehensive online ordering solutions through its TakeOut7 platform and AI-powered digital marketing services through its Platr platform. The acquisition of Takeout7 expands the Company’s technology offerings to include end-to-end solutions for independent restaurants.

 

On September 4, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and, by written consent dated September 5, 2024, the holders of a majority of our common stock approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change the Company’s name from RDE, Inc. to Giftify, Inc. The change to Giftify, Inc. became effective on October 28, 2024. All references throughout this filing to RDE, Inc. have been changed to Giftify, Inc.

 

On August 6, 2024, The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) granted the Company’s application for listing on the Nasdaq.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31,2025. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Card Cash Exchange, Inc., Restaurant.com, Inc., and Takeout7, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, the Company’s management has evaluated whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying financial statements were issued. The Company has a history of reporting net losses and negative operating cash flows. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

F-6

 

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The Company has financed its working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of its equity securities.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus may have on the Company’s business plans and the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future. If the Company is unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, assumptions used in valuing assets acquired in business acquisitions, impairment testing of goodwill and other long-term assets, assumptions used in valuing stock-based compensation, accruals for potential liabilities, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The Company buys merchant gift cards from the general public and distributors at a discount and then resells them at a markup. The Company also generates revenue from the sale of discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants, online restaurant ordering fees, and monthly subscription fees for its restaurant marketing platform. Lastly, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of Restaurant.com promotional gift cards (revenue recognized based on the Company’s historical redemption rates of its promotional gift cards), the sale of travel, vacation, and merchandise on behalf of third-party merchants (revenue reported on a net basis equal to the purchase price received from the customer less a portion of the purchase price paid by the Company to its merchant partners), and advertising revenue for third-party partners, such as Google Ads, wherein third-party website(s) and/or product(s) are shown or incorporated in the Company’s platform or website (revenue recognized when its determinable, which is generally upon receipt of a statement and/or proceeds from the third-party partners).

 

Certain customers may receive incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration. Provisions for sales returns are recognized in the period when the sales are recorded based upon the Company’s prior experience and current trends. These revenue reductions are established by the Company based upon management’s best estimates at the time of sale, utilizing historical trends, and adjusted to reflect known changes in the factors that impact such reserves and allowances, and the terms of agreements with customers.

 

Amounts billed and due from the Company’s customers are classified as accounts receivable on the balance sheet. Amounts received in advance from customers are recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet until the performance obligations have been satisfied. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not assess contracts for significant financing components because the period between the receipt of advance payment and the Company’s transfer of services to the customer is less than one year.

 

F-7

 

 

It is necessary to determine whether the Company is acting as a principal or an agent in revenue-generating arrangements.

 

Principal vs. Agent Considerations

 

  Principal: As a principal in a transaction, the Company controls the specified good or service before transferring it to the customer. This means the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the obligation directly to the customer, has inventory risk, including risk of fraud/invalid card (if applicable), and has discretion in establishing the price. In such cases, revenue is recognized on a gross basis. This means recording the total amount of consideration received from the customer as revenue, with a corresponding cost for any amounts paid to other parties involved in providing the goods or services.
  Agent: As an agent, the Company does not control discounted gift cards, and its role is to arrange for its distributors to deliver discounted gift cards to our customers. In these instances, revenue is recognized on a net basis. This reflects only the fee or commission the company retains from the transaction.

 

Impact of Gross vs. Net Recognition on Financial Performance

 

Determining whether the Company is a principal or an agent has a significant impact on reported revenue and gross profit percentages. For example, where the Company uses its inventory of previously purchased discounted gift cards to fulfill a customer sale, revenue is recognized on a gross basis because the Company acts as principal and takes control of gift cards and carries the inventory risk before reselling them. This differs from arrangements when the Company’s role is solely to act as an agent by arranging for our supplier to deliver discounted gift cards directly to our customer. In these arrangements, the Company carries no inventory risk, and revenue is recognized on a net basis, representing the commission earned on the transaction. Agent transactions represent approximately 7% and 2% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 6% and 3% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Significant Judgments and Estimates

 

Deciding whether the Company is a principal or an agent requires significant judgment and analysis. This is particularly true when evaluating factors like responsibility for fulfilling the promise to the customer, inventory risk, and pricing discretion. Changes in the assessment of these indicators could materially impact reported revenue and related metrics. The Company continuously evaluates our judgments and estimates to ensure accurate revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606.

 

In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by our divisions and type of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

F-8

 

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost to purchase merchant gift cards, and transaction fees and costs.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from, acquired technology, trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which can be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company has certain intangible assets that were initially recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition. The finite-lived intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade name, and developed technology. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of three years.

 

The Company reviews all finite-lived intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess carrying value over the fair value in our consolidated statements of operations.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of the business acquired. Goodwill that arose from acquisition of CardCash (see Note 3) was $20,007,670. Under ASC 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually, or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The Company’s impairment testing is performed annually at December 31. Impairment of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets is determined by comparing the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer) determined that there is only one reporting unit. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2025.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates long-lived assets, other than goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (“triggering events”) indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. The measurement of possible impairment is based upon the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset through the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. An impairment loss, equal to the difference between the asset’s fair value and its carrying value, is recognized when the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying amount. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2025.

 

F-9

 

 

Leases

 

The Company leases certain corporate office space under lease agreements. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is determined based on the right to obtain all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. Operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) for operating leases represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in the general and administrative line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not included on the balance sheets.

 

Advertising

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and amounted to $788,036 and $637,203 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which are recorded in general and administrative in the Statements of Operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees and non-employees and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as a charge to operations ratably over the requisite service, or vesting, period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.

 

The Company values its equity awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and accounts for forfeitures when they occur. Use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term, and a risk-free interest rate. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, calculated utilizing a look-back period approximately equal to the contractual life of the stock option being granted. The expected life of the stock option is calculated as the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual term (the “simplified method”). The risk-free interest rate is estimated using comparable published federal funds rates.

 

Stock-based compensation expense recognized and recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and the dilutive effect of contingent shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive contingent shares, which primarily consist of convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share was the same for all periods presented because all convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding were anti-dilutive.

 

F-10

 

 

At September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company excluded the outstanding convertible debt and securities summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

Schedule of Anti- dilutive Securities Excluded from Computation of Earning Loss Per Share

   September 30, 2025   September 30, 2024 
         
Convertible notes payable   30,258    28,258 
Common stock issuable   350,843    350,843 
Common stock options   4,047,222    4,123,282 
Total   4,428,323    4,502,383 

 

The issuable and potentially issuable shares as summarized above. These potentially issuable common shares would have been anti-dilutive because the Company had a net loss for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, such common stock equivalents would have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, which is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used to measure fair value, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, is as follows:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.

 

A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and other liabilities) are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

 

Concentrations

 

Net sales and gross profit. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had two merchants’ gift cards that accounted for 18% and 10% of net sales, respectively, and approximately 24% and 4% of gross profit, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, no merchant’s gift cards accounted for more than 10% of net sales or gross profit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company sold one merchant’s gift cards that accounted for 11% of net sales and 21% of gross profit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold one merchant’s gift cards that accounted for 11% of net sales and approximately 7% of gross profit.

Purchases from vendors. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s three largest vendors accounted for approximately 24%, 18% and 11% of all purchases. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s largest vendor accounted for approximately 18% of all purchases.  No other vendor exceeded 10% of all purchases in either period.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade accounts receivable and cash. The credit risk exposure surrounding trade accounts receivable are limited as these amounts represent the timing difference between payments being settled by credit card processors and the cash being provided to the Company.

 

The Company maintains a balance at financial institutions, which at times exceed the federally insured limit. The Company has not experienced a loss on this account.

 

Segment Information

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and evaluates performance and makes operating decisions about allocating resources based on financial data presented on a consolidated basis. Because our CODM evaluates financial performance on a consolidated basis, the Company has determined that it operates as a single reportable segment composed of the consolidated financial results of Giftify, Inc. (see Note 2).

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. Merchant receipts (i.e., credit card processors) amounting to $726,965, that were previously presented as a component of accounts receivable at December 31, 2024, have been reclassified as a component of cash and cash equivalents to conform to current year presentation. This reclassification did not affect the reported results of operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the cash flows used in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows were restated to $2,858,368 from $2,362,948, and cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period were restated to $4,178,195 from $3,090,980.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses which includes amendments that require disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation, amortization and depletion expenses for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. The amendments are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

On February 1, 2025, the Company, pursuant to the terms of its 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, granted options exercisable into 1,170,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to its executives and employees. The stock options vest over 36 months equally. The stock options are exercisable at a weighted average price of $0.92 per share with an average life to expiration of approximately three years. The total fair value of these options at grant date was approximately $1,073,000, which was determined using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following average assumption: stock price of $0.92 per share, expected term of 6.00 years, volatility of 241%, dividend rate of 0%, and weighted average risk-free interest rate of 4.45%. The expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior; the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common stock; the expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future; and the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option award.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $2,843,690 and $6,574,603 of stock compensation expense relating to vested stock options. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate amount of unvested compensation related to stock options was approximately $1,934,542 which will be recognized as an expense as the options vest in future periods through February 2028.

 

The weighted average remaining contractual life of common stock options outstanding at September 30, 2025, was 8.67 years. Based on a fair market value of $1.06 per share on September 30, 2025, the intrinsic value attributed to exercisable but unexercised common stock options was $138,986 at September 30, 2025.

 

The exercise prices of common stock options outstanding and exercisable at September 30, 2025 are as follows:

We intend to grow and leverage our customer database of 6.2 million which we believe is of value to merchants for a variety of services and products.

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, adversely affected work forces, economies and financial markets globally. The outbreak has negatively impacted our revenues as a result of the temporary closures of restaurants throughout the United States where our discount certificates and Discount Dining Passes were accepted and where dining was being restricted to outdoor locations or to capacity constraints for indoor dining. Our revenues from purchase of our discount certificates in 2020, 2021 and 2022 declined since they could only be redeemed when dining in the restaurants and also were not accepted for payment by third-party platforms that facilitated ordering and delivery of food on-demand. As the COVID-19 pandemic has abated, our revenues improved in fiscal 2023.

How We Measure Our Business

 

We use operating metrics to assess the progress of our business and make strategic decisions. Certain of the financial metrics are reported in accordance with GAAP and certain of those metrics are considered non-GAAP financial measures. As our business evolves, we may make changes to the key financial and operating metrics that we use to measure our business. For further information and reconciliations to the most applicable financial measures under GAAP, refer to our discussion under the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section.

 

Operating Metrics

 

  Gross billings are the total dollar value of customer purchases of goods and services. Gross billings are presented net of customer refunds and order discounts. A significant portion of our revenue transactions are comprised of sales of discounted merchant gift cards in which we collect the transaction price from the customer and remit a portion of the transaction price to the third-party suppliers who will provide the related goods or services. For these transactions, gross billings differ from Net Sales reported in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, which is presented net of the merchant’s share of the transaction price. Gross billings are an indicator of our growth and business performance as it measures the dollar volume of transactions generated through our marketplaces. Tracking gross billings also allows us to monitor the percentage of gross billings that we are able to retain after payments to merchants.

 

A reconciliation of our net sales (as reported) to our gross billings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

 

  

Three Months Ended

September 30,

  

Nine Months Ended

   2025   2024   Change %   2025   2024   Change %

Company costs of Agent Transactions (see discussion below)   20,302,632    7,130,276    184.7%   49,216,416    25,042,449    96.5%
Gross billings  $39,086,540   $30,341,126    28.8%  $111,178,068   $89,795,695    23.8%

 

Inflation

 

Global inflation also increased during 2021 and in 2022. The Russia and Ukraine conflict and other geopolitical conflicts, as well as related international response, have exacerbated inflationary pressures, including causing increases in the price for goods and services and global supply chain disruptions, which have resulted and may continue to result in shortages in food products, materials and services. Such shortages have resulted and may continue to result in inflationary cost increases for labor, fuel, food products, materials and services, and could continue to cause costs to increase as well as result in the scarcity of certain materials. We cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation or other negative economic factors or associated changes in our operating costs and how that may impact our business. To the extent we and the restaurant customers we service are unable to recover higher operating costs resulting from inflation or otherwise mitigate the impact of such costs on our and their business, our revenues and gross profit could decrease, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has a history of reporting net losses. At September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $4,021,227 available to fund its operations, including expansion plans, and to service its debt, and a negative working capital of $1,537,994.

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have experienced operating losses and negative operating cash flows during 2024 and 2023. We have financed our working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of our equity securities.

 

3

 

 

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus may have on the Company’s business plans and the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future.

 

If the Company is unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Based on the Company’s business model, it is sometimes necessary to determine whether we are acting as a principal or an agent in revenue-generating arrangements.

 

Deciding whether the Company is a principal or an agent requires significant judgment and analysis. This is particularly true when evaluating factors like responsibility for fulfilling the promise to the customer, inventory risk, and pricing discretion. Changes in the assessment of these indicators could materially impact reported revenue and related metrics. The Company continuously evaluates our judgments and estimates to ensure accurate revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606.

 

The following table reconciles the recording of the Company’s gross vs. net transactions to the Company’s reported net sales.

Net Sales  $18,783,908   $23,210,850   $61,961,652   $64,753,246 

 

The increase in net revenue recognized as agent increased $873,157, or 191%, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net revenue recognized as agent increased $1,816,153, or 110%, as compared to the prior year period. The increase over the previous year was due to the sale of gift cards related to cruise line operators, fluctuations in the types of gift cards sold, and changes in the number of customer orders in which the Company acted as an agent.

The following is a discussion of our results of operations.

 

Net Sales

 

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, were $18,783,908 and $23,210,850, respectively, a decrease of 19.1%. The decrease in net sales was due to the change in the mix of agent versus principal transactions as discussed above. Merchant gift card sales accounted for approximately 97% and 98% of our net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Amortization of intangible assets   585,349    607,917 
Operating expenses  $6,235,209   $6,770,812 

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of costs incurred to identify, communicate with and evaluate potential customers and related business opportunities, and compensation to officers and directors, as well as legal and other professional fees, lease expense, and other general corporate expenses. Management expects selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods as the Company adds personnel and incurs additional costs related to its operation as a public company, including higher legal, accounting, insurance, compliance, compensation and other costs.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5,489,115 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $5,908,603 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $419,488. The decrease was due to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $775,756 during the three months ended September 30, 2025, offset by increased payroll and benefit expenses, marketing and advertising costs, as well as other general expenses to support our business and operations.

 

Amortization of capitalized software costs

 

Amortization expenses are primarily attributed to the Company’s capitalized software development costs. Amortization expenses were $160,745 during the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $254,292 during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

 

Amortization of intangible assets

 

Amortization expenses are primarily attributable to the Company’s amortization of intangible assets with finite lives. Amortization expenses were $585,349 during the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to amortization expenses of $607,917 during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

 

Loss from Operations

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we incurred a loss from operations of $2,487,668, as compared to a loss from operations of $3,780,199 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in loss from operations was due to our increased gross profit being offset by decreased stock-based compensation expense as discussed above.

 

Other Expenses, Net

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we incurred interest expense, net of $133,194, as compared to interest expense, net of $280,953 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in interest expense was due to our decreased debt balances. We also recorded additional income of $38,540 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, which did not occur in the prior year period.

Income Tax Benefit

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we realized an income tax benefit of $144,860 as compared to an income tax benefit of $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

 

Net Loss

 

We realized a net loss of $2,437,462 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to a net loss of $4,061,152 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in net loss was due to our increased gross profit, decreased stock-based compensation expense, decreased interest expense, and an income tax benefit, as discussed above.

 

Modified EBITDA

 

In addition to our GAAP results, we present Modified EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. However, Modified EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. We define Modified EBITDA as net income (loss), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and fair value of common stock issued for services.

 

Management considers our core operating performance to be that which our managers can affect in any particular period through their management of the resources that affect our underlying revenue and profit generating operations during that period. Non-GAAP adjustments to our results prepared in accordance with GAAP are itemized below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Modified EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Modified EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

We present Modified EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Modified EBITDA in developing our internal budgets, forecasts and strategic plan; in analyzing the effectiveness of our business strategies in evaluating potential acquisitions; making compensation decisions; and in communications with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Modified EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, which includes, among others, the following:

 

  Modified EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
     
  Modified EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
     
  Modified EBITDA does not reflect future interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts; and
     
  Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Modified EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

 

Results of Operations – Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025, Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024

 

Operating Metrics

 

Our gross billings for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

 

   Nine Months Ended
September 30,
 
   2025   2024   Change % 
Gross billings  $111,178,068   $89,795,695    23.8%

 

Gross billings increased 23.8% during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period. A significant portion of our revenue transactions are comprised of sales of discounted merchant gift cards in which we collect the transaction price from the customer and remit a portion of the transaction price to the third-party suppliers who provide the related goods or services. For these transactions, gross billings differ from Net Sales reported in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, which reflect only the fee and commission we retain from the sale of discounted merchant gift cards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying 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 from the outcome of the uncertainty concerning our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of $8,244,603 and used cash in operations of $496,067. Cash used in operations was primarily for working capital. As of September 30, 2025, we had a cash balance of $4,021,227. We have an aggregate note payables principal balance of $1,750,000 due in December 2025, for which we are evaluating repayment through a combination of a private issuance of common stock, selling shares in the open market utilizing our At-the-Market (ATM) facility, and using a portion of our existing cash balance.

 

Historically, we have financed our operations through existing cash balances, public and private issuance of common stock, term loans and credit lines from financial institutions.

 

11

 

 

As of the issuance date of the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management expects that the Company’s existing cash of $4,021,227 cash generated from operations to last until March 31, 2026.

 

To alleviate any funding considerations, management periodically evaluates various funding alternatives and may seek to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, debt securities, through arrangements with strategic partners, strategic transactions, or through obtaining credit from financial institutions. As we seek additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms or at all. Our ability to obtain additional financing in the debt and equity capital markets is subject to several factors, including market and economic conditions, our performance and investor sentiment with respect to us and our industry.

 

We are also continuing to take actions to improve the Company’s operating performance and cash generated from operations, including product optimization, implementing strategies to increase sales, streamlining operations, negotiating equitable vendor contracts, and managing product price. However, we may be unsuccessful in executing these actions in a timely manner or at all.

 

If the Company is unable to raise additional capital whenever necessary or otherwise improve its operating performance or generation of cash from operations, it may be forced to decelerate or curtail certain of its operations until such time as additional capital becomes available.

 

Our consolidated statements of cash flows as discussed herein are presented below.

Operating Activities

 

Cash provided by or used in operating activities primarily consists of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including amortization of intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, gain on forgiveness of government assistance notes payable, and the fair value of common stock issued for directors, employees, and service providers, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.

 

Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $496,067 and consisted of our net loss, adjusted for non-cash items, including amortization of intangible assets, the fair value of vested stock options, common stock issued to executives, employees, and advisors, and routine changes in working capital and other activities.

 

Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was approximately $2,858,368 and consisted of our net loss, adjusted for non-cash items, including amortization of intangible assets, fair value of vested stock options, and the fair value of common stock issued to executives, employees, and advisors, and routine changes in working capital and other activities.

 

Investing Activities

 

Cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $109,543, which was from cash received on an acquisition.

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $674,646, which was for capital expenditures for software development costs.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $105,909, which was from proceeds of $3,058,577 on the sale of common stock, net proceeds of $985,000 from a note payable, offset by repayment of our line of credit balance of $1,111,345, and repayment of our notes payable of $2,826,323.

 

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $2,028,837, which was from proceeds of $3,054,073 on the sale of common stock, proceeds from notes payable of $1,978,000, offset by repayment of our line of credit of $2,503,236, and payment of $500,000 on our acquisition obligation.

 

Going Concern

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We experienced operating losses and negative operating cash flows during 2024 and 2023. We have financed our working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of equity securities.

 

We have a history of reporting net losses. At September 30, 2025, we had cash of $4,021,227 available to fund our operations, including expansion plans, and to service our debt, and a negative working capital of $1,537,994. We anticipate our cash balance will last until March 2026. As a result, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in their report with respect to this uncertainty that accompanies the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company’s December 31, 2024 audited consolidated financial statements, has expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to our ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that we will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary, to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the amount and type of financing available to us in the future.

 

If we are unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy our ongoing cash requirements, we could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 presented elsewhere in this report, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain accounting policies and estimates are particularly important to the understanding of the Company’s financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management or can be materially affected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of the Company’s control. As a result, these issues are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on the Company’s historical operations, the future business plans and the projected financial results, the terms of existing contracts, trends in the industry, and information available from other outside sources.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The Company buys merchant gift cards from the general public and distributors at a discount and then resells them at a markup. The Company also derives revenue from the sale of discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants.

 

Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs at a point in time when the risk and title to the product transfers to the customer upon delivery to the customer. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company’s standard terms of delivery are included in its contracts of sale, order confirmation documents, and invoices. The Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis for the sales price of the merchant gift cards and discount certificates it collects.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees and non-employees and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as a charge to operations ratably over the requisite service, or vesting, period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.

 

Acquisitions and Business Combinations

 

The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from, acquired technology, trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which can be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that information relating to the Company is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024, and have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2024, due to the material weakness described below in the subsection titled “Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management has concluded that the Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

 

On December 29, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of CardCash Exchange Inc (“CardCash”). As a result of the merger, the Company adopted the controls and procedures of CardCash.

 

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

 

Management does not expect the Company’s disclosure controls or internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The Company’s controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that control system’s objective will be met, and the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective at the reasonable assurance level. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined by Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the framework and criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) (COSO). Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective.

 

We identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

As previously reported, the material weaknesses continued to exist as of December 31, 2024, relating to the Company did not design and maintain effective controls over certain information technology (“IT”) general controls for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Specifically, Company did not design and maintain effective program change management controls to ensure that access to information technology program and data changes affecting certain financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, documented, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately.

Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

In response to the material weaknesses identified in “Management’s Reporting on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting,” we, with oversight from the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, developed a plan to remediate the material weakness. Ongoing remediation activities include:

 

  Continue to design and implement ITGCs, focusing on user access controls, periodic access reviews, and change management;
  Continue to enhance documentation and control execution, ensuring the completeness and accuracy of supporting data; and
  Continue to provide training to our control operators.

 

We believe the foregoing efforts will effectively remediate the material weaknesses described in “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.” Because the reliability of the internal control process requires repeatable execution, the successful on-going remediation of the material weaknesses will require on-going review and evidence of effectiveness prior to concluding that controls are effective

 

Remediation of Previously Identified Material Weaknesses

 

In the year ending December 31, 2023, we had the following material weakness:

 

The Company did not maintain adequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. Specifically, certain personnel had the ability to both (i) create and post journal entries within our general ledger system and (ii) prepare and review account reconciliations.

 

As of December 31, 2024, management implemented the following to address the previously identified material weakness.

 

  hiring a Chief Financial Officer in August 2024, who has extensive experience leading public companies;
  executing plans to remediate control deficiencies and performing a risk assessment under the COSO framework; and
  ensuring optimal segregation of duties and levels of oversight.

 

Management determined these controls were in place and were effectively operating for a sufficient period of time as of December 31, 2024 and, therefore, the previously identified material weakness related to inadequate segregation of duties were remediated as of December 31, 2024.

 

There are, however, inherent limitations in all control systems and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all deficiencies have been detected. While these actions and planned actions are subject to ongoing management evaluation and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles, we are committed to the continuous improvement and diligent review of our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Other than as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
