20M-share TRWD resale and $10M equity line for Tradewinds Universal (OTC: TRWD)
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Tradewinds Universal is registering 20,000,000 shares of common stock for resale by RH2 Equity Partners under a committed equity facility. The company itself is not selling shares in this prospectus, but may sell up to $10,000,000 of stock to RH2 at its discretion over 24 months.
As of December 31, 2025, Tradewinds had 42,690,580 shares outstanding and operates edible insect protein products and a licensed canine pain-relief formula, while exploring a nightlife and hospitality expansion via a non-binding Peppermint Hippo LOI. 2025 revenue was $133,222, with a net loss of $892,877, and auditors have raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The filing highlights very early-stage operations, heavy reliance on CEO Andrew Read, liquidity risk, penny-stock trading on OTCMarkets under “TRWD,” and the potential for significant dilution and price pressure as RH2 resells shares purchased at a discount to market.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- None.
Insights
Tradewinds sets up a $10M equity line that brings flexibility but also notable dilution and risk.
Tradewinds Universal has arranged an equity line of credit (ELOC) with RH2 for up to $10,000,000, registering 20,000,000 shares for RH2’s resale. RH2 buys at 80% of the lowest 15-day VWAP, giving it discounted entry and resale potential into the public market.
The company had 42,690,580 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025, so full use of the registered 20,000,000 shares would bring this to 62,690,580, meaning meaningful dilution for existing holders. A 4.99% Beneficial Ownership Cap limits RH2’s stake at any time, but not the cumulative shares it can recycle into the market.
Financially, Tradewinds generated only $133,222 of 2025 revenue and incurred a net loss of $892,877, with auditors expressing substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ELOC can provide working capital, yet repeated discounted issuances and resales may pressure the share price and make other financing more difficult, especially while operations and the Peppermint Hippo strategy remain early-stage and unproven.

OUR COMPANY
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Corporate History
Tradewinds Universal (the “Company” or “Tradewinds”) was incorporated in the State of Wyoming on December 28, 2021. The Company is a holding company focused on acquiring, developing, and operating businesses with long-term value, resilience, and growth potential across multiple industry sectors.
The Company’s initial operations centered on the development, manufacturing, and distribution of high-nutrition food and beverage products, including nutrient-based edible insect protein foods such as protein bars, shakes, and related snacks and drinks. These products were developed and marketed under the Universal Protein, also known as UP Proteins or Universal Proteins (UP), brand. In 2022, the Company also acquired a proprietary formula intended for the development and commercialization of canine pain relief pet treats.
In August 2025, the Company executed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Peppermint Hippo™ to establish a nightlife and hospitality division. Pursuant to the LOI, the Company intends to acquire Peppermint Hippo Toledo as its initial property, followed by a phased national expansion that includes several Peppermint Hippo locations and additional affiliated brands owned or operated by Peppermint Hippo. This transaction represents a strategic expansion of the Company’s operations into the nightlife and hospitality sector.

RISK FACTORS
YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITY THAT YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT MAY BE LOST. AS SUCH, YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO EVALUATE THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS AND ALL OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS BEFORE PURCHASING OUR COMMON STOCK. OUR COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, AND COULD RESULT IN COMPLETE LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT.
We have a limited operating history that you can use to evaluate us, and the likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered by a small developing company.
We were incorporated in Wyoming on December 28, 2021. We have limited financial resources and only limited revenues to date. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered by a small developing company starting a new business enterprise and the highly competitive environment in which we will operate. Since we have a limited operating history, we cannot assure you that our business will be profitable or that we will ever generate sufficient revenues to fully meet our expenses and totally support our anticipated activities.
All of our capital and assets have been provided by or acquired from our principal shareholders, revenues and through a Private Placement of the shares being registered. We estimate that we will have insufficient capital to operate for the next twelve (12) months without raising additional capital through equity or debt financing or the sales of additional licensing rights to our patents. We cannot assure you, however, that we will be able to sustain the business for the long term nor that we may not need to obtain additional capital in the future. We can also not assure you that we will be able to obtain any required financing on a timely basis, or if obtainable, that the terms will not materially dilute the equity of our current stockholders. If we are unable to obtain financing on a timely basis, we may have to significantly or entirely curtail our business objectives, which could result in our having to discontinue some of our operations and plans.
We depend highly on our current president who has limited experience in running a public company.
We depend highly on Andrew Read, our CEO and Director, who may be difficult to replace. Andrew Read at this point, only devotes approximately 40% of his time (approximately 16 hours) per week to our business, has only several years of industry experience and has not previously headed a public Company. Our plan of operations is dependent upon the continuing support and business expertise of Mr. Read.
Loss of our CEO could adversely affect our business.
Loss of Mr. Read could slow the growth of our business, or it may cease to operate at all, which may result in the total loss of investor's investments. Mr. Read received 230,000 shares of the Company's common stock in February of 2022 and 22,000,000 shares in December 2023 resulting in 22,230,000 shares. It is unknown, at this time, if or when the Company may be able to further compensate Mr. Read for his management services. The company does not anticipate Mr. Read receiving a salary in the foreseeable future.
Our independent auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements states that our history of accumulated deficits raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue operations.
We will need to generate additional revenues and/or obtain additional financing to fund our operations and execute our business plan. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, or that we will be able to achieve profitable operations. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, investors may lose all or a substantial portion of their investment.
| 4 |
Our management has limited experience in running a public company.
Mr. Read, has no experience in running a public company. He is vaguely familiar with the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mr. Read will rely on the expertise of outside counsel to insure proper filing and the meeting of deadlines.
There are increased costs and regulations associated with operating a public company and we will have limited internal accounting controls.
There are a number of expenses and costs associated with operating a public Company including filing expenses, transfer agent, stock issuance and maintenance costs, accounting, legal and auditing expenses that will materially increase the Company's operating expenses and make it more difficult for the Company's businesses to produce operating profits. Projected cost for the next 12 months associated with the operation aspects of being a public company are projected to be approximately $85,000. Our CEO has no prior experience managing a public company. With only one officer and director there will be no internal oversight to the Company's financial reporting, initially, except from the Company's outside auditors.
Upon completion of the offering stockholders will own a majority percentage of the Company's stock.
Andrew Read owns approximately 51% of our outstanding common shares and will continue to do so after the filing of this Registration Statement. As a consequence of his stock ownership position, Mr. Read has the ability to elect a majority of our board of directors, and thereby control our management. Andrew Read also has the ability to control the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, including mergers and other changes of corporate control, any private transactions, and other extraordinary transactions. The ownership by Mr. Read could discourage investments in our Company or prevent a potential takeover of our company which will have a negative impact on the value of our securities.
Our proposed Peppermint Hippo acquisitions are preliminary and may never be completed.
We are in preliminary discussions regarding the possible acquisition of one or more Peppermint Hippo locations. Any such proposed transaction is subject to due diligence, negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, financing, required consents, regulatory approvals, and other closing conditions. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any acquisition will be completed on the terms currently contemplated, on a timely basis, or at all. If we are unable to complete any such acquisition, our growth strategy and prospects could be materially adversely affected.
If we complete any Peppermint Hippo acquisition, we may not realize the expected benefits and may incur significant unexpected costs or liabilities.
Any acquisition we complete may involve substantial risks, including unfavorable final terms, the assumption of unknown liabilities, increased operating costs, integration difficulties, diversion of management attention, and failure of the acquired business to perform as expected. As a result, any completed acquisition may not generate the anticipated strategic, operational, or financial benefits and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our planned expansion into the nightlife and hospitality industry subjects us to substantial regulatory, operational, and reputational risks.
If we acquire or operate nightlife and hospitality venues, we will face industry-specific risks, including licensing and permitting requirements, regulatory oversight, employment and security matters, liability claims, reputational concerns, and sensitivity to local economic conditions and public perception. Any of these risks could materially adversely affect our operations, financial condition, and ability to successfully execute our business strategy.
Because of competitive pressures from competitors with more resources, the Company may fail to implement its business model profitably.
The protein bar industry is extremely competitive. The market for customers is intensely competitive and such competition is expected to continue to increase (see "Competition"). We believe that our ability to compete depends upon many factors within and beyond our control, including the timing and market acceptance of new solutions and enhancements to existing products developed by us, our competitors, and their advisors.
We are dependent on the popularity of our products.
Our ability to generate revenue and be successful in implementing our business plan is dependent on our ability to manufacture and distribute our products via distribution channels that are efficient and cost effective.
We may be unable to compete with larger or more established companies.
We face a large and growing number of competitors in the protein bar industry. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources, larger customer bases, longer operating histories, greater name recognition, and more established relationships in the industry than does the Company. As a result, certain of these competitors may be in better positions to compete with us for product and audiences. We cannot be sure that we will be able to compete successfully with existing or new competitors.
We are developing additional products which could be unprofitable once completed.
There is no assurance that if and when the products under development are completed, they will be met with success or be profitable. We face competition from many established companies most which have far greater resources and expertise than we do.
| 5 |
In the event we are unable to acquire additional financing, we may not be able to implement our business plan resulting in a loss of revenues and ultimately the loss of any shareholder's investment.
Due to our limited operating history, we currently do not have the resources to initiate manufacturing of products using our dog pain relief formula. We anticipate additional sales of licensing rights to our formula but as of the date of this filing we have no plans in place for the further sale of licensing rights or for debt or equity financing.
Following this offering we may need to raise additional funds to expand our operations. We will receive no proceeds from this offering. We may raise additional funds through private placements, registered offerings, debt financing or other sources to maintain and expand our operations, although at this time there is no plan in effect to do so. Adequate funds for this purpose on terms favorable to us may not be available, and if available, on terms significantly more adverse to us than are manageable. Without new funding, we may be only partially successful or completely unsuccessful in implementing our business plan, and our stockholders will lose part or all of their investment.
Our products or processes could give rise to claims that our products infringe on the rights of others.
We are potentially subject to claims and litigation from third parties claiming that our products or processes infringe on their patent or other proprietary rights. Currently such claims and litigation could potentially apply to our products under development. If any such actions are successful, in addition to any potential liability for damages, we could be required to obtain a license in order to continue to produce, use or sell the affected product or process. Litigation, which could result in substantial costs to us, may also be necessary to enforce our proprietary rights and/or to determine the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others. Any intellectual property litigation would be costly and could divert the efforts and attention of our management and technical personnel, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that infringement claims will not be asserted in the future or that such assertions, if proven to be true, will not prevent us from selling our products or materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any such claims are asserted against us, we may seek to enter into a royalty or licensing arrangement. We cannot assure you that a license will be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
We may be unable to scale our operations successfully.
Our growth will place significant demands on our management and technology development, as well as our financial, administrative and other resources. We cannot guarantee that any of the systems, procedures and controls we put in place will be adequate to support the commercialization of our operations. Our operating results will depend substantially on the ability of our officers and key employees to manage changing business conditions and to implement and improve our financial, administrative and other resources. If we are unable to respond to and manage changing business conditions, or the scale of our products, services and operations, then the quality of our services, our ability to retain key personnel and our business could be harmed.
The lack of experience in all of the businesses we are entering could impact our return on investment, if any.
As a result of our reliance on our officers and their lack of experience in developing and implementing plans for manufacturing and sales of protein bars and related products, our investors are at risk in losing their entire investment. The company intends to hire personnel in the future who will have the experience required to manage our company, when the company is sufficiently capitalized. Until such management is in place, we are reliant upon our officers to make the appropriate management decisions.
Our shares of common stock are actively traded on OTCMarkets as penny stocks.
The securities enforcement and penny stock reform act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. Sec regulations generally define a penny stock to be an equity security that has a market or exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Such exceptions include any equity security listed on OTCMarkets and any equity security issued by an issuer that has net tangible assets of at least $100,000, if that issuer has been in continuous operation for three years. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the associated risks. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, details of the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations and broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for securities that become subject to the penny stock rules. Since our securities are highly likely to be subject to the penny stock rules, should a public market ever develop, any market for our shares of common stock may not be liquid.
| 6 |
Because our securities are subject to penny stock rules, you may have difficulty reselling your shares.
Because our common stock trades on the OTCMarkets at a price below $5.00 per share, it is considered a “penny stock” and is subject to the penny stock rules under Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The penny stock rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that effect transactions in penny stocks, including the delivery of a standardized disclosure document, disclosure and confirmation of current quotation prices, disclosure of the compensation received by the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and the furnishing of monthly account statements. In addition, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of penny stocks and receive the purchaser’s written agreement prior to effecting any transaction in such securities. These requirements may limit the willingness of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may adversely affect the liquidity of our common stock and the ability of shareholders to resell their shares.
This registration statement contains forward looking statements which are speculative in nature.
This registration statement contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. Forward looking statements are speculative and uncertain and not based on historical facts. Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including those discussed under "business description" and "corporate background" although the company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements cannot be guaranteed. The reader is advised to consult any further disclosures made on related subjects in our future sec filings.
We have not paid, and do not intend to pay, cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for reinvestment in the development and expansion of our business. Dividend payments in the future may also be limited by other loan agreements or covenants contained in other securities that we may issue. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital and legal requirements and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

It is not possible to predict the actual number of shares we will sell under the ELOC to the Selling Stockholder, or the actual gross proceeds resulting from those sales.
On January 29, 2026, we entered into the ELOC with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder has committed to purchase up to $10,000,000 in shares of our Common Stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the ELOC. The shares of our Common Stock that may be issued under the ELOC may be sold by us to the Selling Stockholder at our discretion from time to time over a 24-month period commencing on the date on which all of the conditions to our right to commence sales of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder set forth in the ELOC were satisfied (“Commencement Date”).
We generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares of Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC. Sales of our Common Stock, if any, to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Stockholder all, some or no additional amount of the shares of our Common Stock that may be available for us to sell to Selling Stockholder pursuant to the ELOC.

Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for the shares of Common Stock that we may elect to sell to them under the ELOC, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock for each Purchase made pursuant to the ELOC, if any, it is not possible for us to predict, as of the date of this prospectus and prior to any such sales, the number of shares of Common Stock that we will sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, the purchase price per share that the Selling Stockholder will pay for shares purchased from us under the ELOC, or the aggregate gross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases by the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, if any.
Moreover, although the ELOC provides that we may sell up to an aggregate of $10,000,000 of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder, we are registering 20,000,000 shares of our Common Stock for resale under this prospectus, The actual gross proceeds from the sale of the shares may be substantially less than the $10,000,000 Total Commitment available to us under the ELOC. If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC more shares than the shares being registered for resale under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the Total Commitment of $10,000,000 under the ELOC, we must first file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Stockholder of any such additional shares of our common stock over the 20,000,000 shares registered in this Registration Statement that we wish to sell from time to time under the ELOC, which the SEC must declare effective, in each case before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC.
Any issuance and sale by us under the ELOC of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock in addition to the 20,000,000 shares of our Common Stock being registered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares of our Common Stock ultimately offered for sale by the Selling Stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, we ultimately sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC.
Investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.
Pursuant to the ELOC, we will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices, and numbers of shares sold to the Selling Stockholder. If and when we do elect to sell shares of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the ELOC, after the Selling Stockholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Stockholder may resell all, some or none of such shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices. As a result, investors who purchase shares from the Selling Stockholder in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares, and so may experience different levels of dilution and in some cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase from the Selling Stockholder in this offering as a result of future sales made by us to the Selling Stockholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid for their shares in this offering.
We may require additional financing to sustain our operations and without it we may not be able to continue operations.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the ELOC, we may, at our discretion, direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase up to $10,000,000 of shares of our Common Stock under the ELOC from time-to-time over a 24-month period beginning on the Commencement Date. Although the ELOC provides that we may sell up to an aggregate of $10,000,000 of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder only 20,000,000 shares of our Common Stock are being registered hereby. The purchase price per share for the shares of Common Stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock for each Purchase made pursuant to the ELOC, if any. Accordingly, it is not currently possible to predict the number of shares that will be sold to the Selling Stockholder, the actual purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for those shares, if any, or the actual gross proceeds to be raised in connection with those sales.
Assuming a purchase price of $0.0525 per share (which represents the closing price of our common stock on OTCMARKETS on April 20, 2026), the purchase by the Selling Stockholder of all of the 20,000,000 shares being registered hereby from and after the Commencement Date would result in aggregate gross proceeds to us of approximately $1,050,000 which is substantially less than the $10,000,000 Total Commitment available to us under the ELOC. After deducting our fees and expenses, the aggregate net proceeds to us from all of such purchases by the Selling Stockholder would be approximately $840,000.
Accordingly, in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the $10,000,000 Total Commitment available to us under the ELOC, we would need to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC more than being registered hereby, which would require us to file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Stockholder any such additional shares of our common stock we wish to sell from time to time under the ELOC, which the SEC must declare effective, in each case before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC.

The extent to which we rely on the Selling Stockholder as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our Common Stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working and other capital from other sources. If obtaining sufficient funding from the Selling Stockholder were to prove unavailable or prohibitively dilutive, we may need to secure another source of funding in order to satisfy our working and other capital needs. Even if we were to sell to the Selling Stockholder all of the shares of Common Stock available for sale to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, we may still need additional capital to fully implement our business, operating and development plans. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, the consequences may be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.
Sales of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders, the sale of the shares of our Common Stock acquired by the Selling Stockholder could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline, and the actual number of shares we will issue under the ELOC, at any one time or in total, is uncertain.
This registration statement relates to an aggregate amount of up to $10,000,000 of shares of our Common Stock that we may sell to the Selling Stockholder from time to time prior to the 24-month anniversary of the Commencement Date. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale to the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus supplement is dependent upon the number of shares we elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC. See “Committed Equity Financing” for more information about our obligations under the ELOC.
Depending upon market liquidity at the time, sales of shares of our Common Stock under the ELOC may cause the trading price of our Common Stock to decline. After the Selling Stockholder has acquired shares under the ELOC, it may sell all, some or none of those shares. Sales to the Selling Stockholder by us pursuant to the ELOC under this prospectus supplement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our Common Stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder in this offering, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to the Selling Stockholder (other than the mandatory purchase notice described above that we are obligated to issue), and the ELOC may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without penalty.
The extent to which we rely on the Selling Stockholder as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors, including the prevailing market price of our Common Stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources.
Future sales and issuances of our Common Stock or other securities might result in significant dilution and could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.
To raise capital, we may sell Common Stock, convertible securities or other equity securities in one or more transactions other than those contemplated by the ELOC, at prices and in a manner we determine from time to time. We may sell shares or other securities in another offering at a price per share that is less than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our Common Stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering.
We cannot predict what effect, if any, sales of shares of our Common Stock in the public market or the availability of shares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock. However, future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market, including shares issued upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and convertible preferred
shares, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.
Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from the offering, and uses may not improve our financial condition or market value.
Because we have not designated the amount of net proceeds from the offering to be used for any particular purpose, our management will have broad discretion as to the application of such net proceeds and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated hereby. Our management may use the net proceeds for corporate purposes that may not improve our financial condition or market value.

COMMITTED EQUITY FINANCING
GENERAL
On January 29, 2026, we entered into the ELOC and the Registration Rights Agreement with RH2, LP. Pursuant to the ELOC, we have the right to sell to the Selling Stockholder up to a Total Commitment of $10,000,000 in shares of our Common Stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the ELOC. In accordance with our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, we have filed the registration statement that includes this prospectus with the SEC to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Stockholder of shares of Common Stock that we have issued and may issue to Selling Stockholder under the ELOC.
We do not have further right to make sales of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC until the registration statement that includes this prospectus is declared effective by the SEC and the final form of this prospectus is filed with the SEC. From and after such time, we will control the timing and amount of any sales of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder. Actual sales of shares of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Common Stock and determinations by us as to the appropriate sources of funding for our company and our operations.
With certain limited exceptions, the purchase price per share of the shares of Common Stock that we elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to a Purchase under the ELOC will be equal to eighty percent (80.0%) of the lowest daily VWAP during the fifteen trading days prior to the date we deliver a notice to the Selling Stockholder. There is no upper limit on the price per share that the Selling Stockholder could be obligated to pay for the Common Stock under the ELOC.
The ELOC prohibits us from directing the Selling Stockholder to purchase any shares of our Common Stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of our Common Stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13d-3 thereunder), would result in the Selling Stockholder beneficially owning more than the Beneficial Ownership Cap of 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock.
Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for the shares of Common Stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock, as of the date of this prospectus it is not possible for us to predict the number of shares of Common Stock that we will sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, the actual purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for those shares, or the actual gross proceeds to be raised by us from those sales, if any. As of December 31, 2025 there were 42,690,580 shares of our Common Stock outstanding, of which 21,460,580 shares were held by non-affiliates, which excludes the 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock registered hereby and shares of Common Stock that we may, in our sole discretion, sell to the Selling Stockholder from time to time pursuant to the ELOC. If all of the shares offered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus were issued and outstanding as of April 20, 2026, we would have 62,690,580 shares outstanding and the shares offered hereby would represent such shares would represent approximately 46% of the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding and approximately 47% of the total number of outstanding shares held by non-affiliates, in each case as of April 20, 2026.
| 10 |
The net proceeds from sales, if any, under the ELOC, will depend on the frequency and prices at which we sell shares of Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder. To the extent we sell shares under the ELOC, we currently plan to use any proceeds therefrom for costs of this transaction, for working capital, strategic and other general corporate purposes.
The issuance of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the ELOC will not affect the rights or privileges of our existing stockholders, except that the economic and voting interests of each of our existing stockholders will be diluted. Although the number of shares of our Common Stock that our existing stockholders own will not decrease, the shares of our Common Stock owned by our existing stockholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares of our Common Stock after any such issuance.
The ELOC and the Registration Rights Agreement contain customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations of the parties. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in such agreements were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.
Neither we nor the Selling Stockholder may assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the ELOC, and no provision of the ELOC or the Registration Rights Agreement may be modified or waived by the parties.
Purchase of Shares by RH2, LP
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the ELOC, we will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at our sole discretion over the 24-month period from and after the Commencement Date, to direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase up to a maximum amount of shares of Common Stock based on a percentage of total volume on the purchase at the applicable purchase price per share to be calculated on the trading day the Selling Stockholder receives purchase notice from us (the “Purchase Date”) in accordance with the ELOC (each, a “Purchase).
The Purchase Price to be paid by the Selling Stockholder in a Purchase will be equitably adjusted as set forth in the ELOC for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction.
The payment for shares in respect of each Purchase under the ELOC will be settled on the second (2nd) trading day immediately following the delivery of the shares to the Selling Stockholder, which shall occur on the trading day immediately following the applicable Purchase Date.
Conditions Precedent to Commencement and For Delivery of Purchase Notices
Our right to deliver Purchase notices to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, and the Selling Stockholder’s obligation to Purchase notices delivered by us under the ELOC, are subject to (i) the initial satisfaction, at the Commencement, and (ii) the satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereto set forth in the ELOC, all of which are entirely outside of the Selling Stockholder’s control, which conditions including the following:
| • | the accuracy in all material respects of the representations and warranties of the company included in the ELOC; | |

| • | the SEC shall not have issued any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement that includes this prospectus (or any one or more additional registration statements filed with the SEC that include shares of Common Stock that may be issued and sold by us to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC) or prohibiting or suspending the use of this prospectus (or the prospectus included in any one or more additional registration statements filed with the SEC under the Registration Rights Agreement), and the absence of any suspension of qualification or exemption from qualification of the Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction; |
| 11 |
| • | there shall not have occurred any event and there shall not exist any condition or state of facts, which makes any statement of a material fact made in the registration statement that includes this prospectus (or in any one or more additional registration statements filed with the SEC that include shares of Common Stock that may be issued and sold by us to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC) untrue or which requires the making of any additions to or changes to the statements contained therein in order to state a material fact required by the Securities Act to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements then made therein (in the case of this prospectus or the prospectus included in any one or more additional registration statements filed with the SEC under the Registration Rights Agreement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; | |
| • | this prospectus, in final form, shall have been filed with the SEC under the Securities Act prior to Commencement, and all reports, schedules, registrations, forms, statements, information and other documents required to have been filed by us with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), shall have been filed with the SEC; | |
| • | trading in the Common Stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC, we shall not have received any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on the OTCMarkets shall be terminated on a date certain (unless, prior to such date, the Common Stock is listed or quoted on any other Eligible Market, as such term is defined in the ELOC), and there shall be no suspension of, or restriction on, accepting additional deposits of the Common Stock, electronic trading or book-entry services by DTC with respect to the Common Stock; | |
| • | we shall have complied with all applicable federal, state and local governmental laws, rules, regulations and ordinances in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the ELOC and the Registration Rights Agreement; | |
| • | the absence of any statute, regulation, order, decree, writ, ruling or injunction by any court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction which prohibits the consummation of or that would materially modify or delay any of the transactions contemplated by the ELOC or the Registration Rights Agreement; | |
| • | the absence of any action, suit or proceeding before any arbitrator or any court or governmental authority seeking to restrain, prevent or change the transactions contemplated by the ELOC or the Registration Rights Agreement, or seeking material damages in connection with such transactions; | |
| • | all of the shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to the ELOC shall have been approved for listing or quotation on OTCMarkets (or if the Common Stock is not then listed on OTCMarkets, on any Eligible Market), subject only to notice of issuance; and | |
| • | no condition, occurrence, state of facts or event constituting a material adverse effect shall have occurred and be continuing. |
Termination of the ELOC
Unless earlier terminated as provided in the ELOC, the ELOC will terminate automatically on the earliest to occur of:
| • | the first day of the month next following the 24-month anniversary of the Commencement Date; | |
| • | the date on which the Selling Stockholder shall have purchased shares of Common Stock under the ELOC for an aggregate gross purchase price equal to its $10,000,000 Total Commitment under the ELOC; | |
| • | the date on which the Common Stock shall have failed to be listed or quoted on The OTCMarkets or any other Eligible Market; and | |
| • | the date on which we commence a voluntary bankruptcy case or any third party commences a bankruptcy proceeding against us, a custodian is appointed for us in a bankruptcy proceeding for all or substantially all of its property, or we make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. |
We have the right to terminate the ELOC at any time after the Commencement Date, at no cost or penalty, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Selling Stockholder. We and the Selling Stockholder may also terminate the ELOC at any time by mutual written consent.
The Selling Stockholder also has the right to terminate the ELOC upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to us, but only upon the occurrence of our material breach of the ELOC.
| 12 |
No termination of the ELOC will affect the Registration Rights Agreement, which will survive any termination of the ELOC.
No Short-Selling or Hedging by RH2, LP
The Selling Stockholder has agreed that neither it nor any of its affiliates shall engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging of our Common Stock during any time prior to the termination of the ELOC.
Prohibition on Variable Rate Transactions
Subject to specified exceptions included in the ELOC, we are limited in our ability to enter into specified variable rate transactions during the term of the ELOC. Such transactions include, among others, the issuance of convertible securities with a conversion or exercise price that is based upon or varies with the trading price of our Common Stock after the date of issuance.
Effect of Performance of the ELOC on our Stockholders
All shares of Common Stock that have been or may be issued or sold by us to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC that are being registered under the Securities Act for resale by the Selling Stockholder in this offering are expected to be freely tradable. The shares of Common Stock being registered for resale in this offering may be issued and sold by us to the Selling Stockholder from time to time at our discretion over a period of up to 24 months commencing on the Commencement Date. The resale by the Selling Stockholder of a significant amount of shares registered for resale in this offering at any given time, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline and to be highly volatile. Sales of our Common Stock, if any, by the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Stockholder all, some or none of the shares of our Common Stock that may be available for us to sell to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the ELOC.
If and when we do elect to sell shares of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the ELOC, after the Selling Stockholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Stockholder may resell all, some or none of such shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices. As a result, investors who purchase shares from the Selling Stockholder in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares, and so may experience different levels of dilution and in some cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase from the Selling Stockholder in this Offering as a result of future sales made by us to the Selling Stockholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid for their shares in this offering. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of shares or the mere existence of our arrangement with the Selling Stockholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales.
Although the ELOC provides that we may sell up to an aggregate of $10,000,000 of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder, we are registering 20,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. If after the Commencement Date we elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder all of the 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock being registered for resale under this prospectus that are available for sale by us to the Selling Stockholder in Purchases under the ELOC, depending on the market prices of our Common Stock, the actual gross proceeds from the sale of the shares may be substantially less than the $10,000,000 Total Commitment available to us under the ELOC. If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC more shares than being registered for resale under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the Total Commitment of $10,000,000 under the ELOC, we must first file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Stockholder of any such additional shares of our Common Stock over the 20,000,000 shares registered in this Registration Statement that we wish to sell from time to time under the ELOC, which the SEC must declare effective, in each case before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC. Any issuance and sale by us under the ELOC of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock in addition to the 20,000,000 shares of our Common Stock being registered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares of our Common Stock ultimately offered for sale by the Selling Stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, we ultimately sell to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC.
The following table sets forth the amount of gross proceeds we would receive from the Selling Stockholder from our sale of shares of Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder under the ELOC at varying purchase prices: The examples in the table are illustrative only and do not represent actual transactions.

_____________
| (1) | Although the ELOC provides that we may sell up to $10,000,000 of our Common Stock to the stockholder, we are only registering 20,000,000 shares under this prospectus, which may or may not cover all of the shares we ultimately sell to the stockholder under the ELOC. The number of registered shares to be issued as set forth in this column does not give effect to the (i) the Beneficial Ownership Cap, or (ii) the Total Commitment amount of $10,000,000. |
| (2) | The denominator is based on 42,690,580 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025, adjusted to include the issuance of the number of shares set forth in the adjacent column that we would have sold to the Selling Stockholder in future sales, assuming the average purchase price in the first column for all shares issued. The numerator is based on the number of shares issuable pursuant to future sales under the ELOC (that are the subject of this offering) at the corresponding assumed average purchase price set forth in the first column. |
| (3) | The closing sale price of our Common Stock on April 20, 2026 was $0.0525. |
USE OF PROCEEDS
This prospectus relates to shares of Common Stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by the Selling Stockholder. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder.
We may receive up to $10 million in gross proceeds pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. See “Plan of Distribution” elsewhere in this prospectus for more information.
We intend to use any proceeds from the Selling Stockholder that we receive under the Purchase Agreement for working capital, strategic and general corporate purposes. We cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds that we will have from the sale of our shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Therefore, our management will have broad discretion to determine the specific use for the net proceeds and we may use the proceeds for purposes that are not contemplated at the time of this offering.
We will incur all costs associated with this prospectus and the registration statement of which it is a part.
MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDEND POLICY
Market Information and Number of Stockholders
Our Common Stock is listed on the OTCMarkets Capital Market under the symbol “TRWD.” The last reported closing price for our Common Stock on OTCMarkets on April 20, 2026 was $.0525 per share.
Based upon information furnished by our transfer agent, as of April 20, 2026 there were approximately 45 holders of record of our Common Stock. A substantially greater number of holders of our Common Stock are “street name” or beneficial holders, whose shares of record are held by banks, brokers, and other financial institutions.
Dividend Policy
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of our Common Stock and do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain all of our future earnings for use in the development of our business and for general corporate purposes. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their Common Stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

BUSINESS
Our initial focus will be on the formulation, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of Up Proteins nutrition products, including protein bars, powder, drinks, cookies, and other health-related products, each containing human-grade protein derived from insects (UP is an acronym for Universal Protein).
Edible insects may have superior health benefits due to their high levels of vitamin B12, iron, zinc, fiber, essential amino acids, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and antioxidants. The addition of edible insects such as crickets to the human diet could offer a myriad of environmental and nutritional benefits, including an overall reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, decreased agricultural use of land and water, improved prevention and management of chronic diseases like autoimmunity, diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease, and provide enhanced immune function.
| 15 |
Ultimately, insects have the potential to be used as meat substitutes or dietary supplements, resulting in human health and environmental benefits.
We intend to formulate, develop, manufacture, and distribute via wholesale and retail markets protein bars with the key protein ingredient base being insect protein.
The company has also acquired a formula for developing, manufacturing, and distributing dog treats to alleviate pain.
Proposed Expansion into Nightlife and Hospitality
In August 2025, we entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent, or LOI, with Scar Holdings LLC, also known as Peppermint Hippo™, regarding the potential establishment of a dedicated division focused on the acquisition and development of nightlife and hospitality venues under the Peppermint Hippo brand.
The initial proposed transaction contemplated by the LOI is the potential acquisition of Peppermint Hippo Toledo, located in Toledo, Ohio. The LOI also contemplates that we and Peppermint Hippo may evaluate additional potential acquisitions of Peppermint Hippo-branded venues as part of a staged growth strategy. Any such expansion would depend on a number of factors, including our ability to complete due diligence, negotiate and enter into definitive agreements, obtain required third-party consents and regulatory and licensing approvals, and secure sufficient financing.
The LOI is non-binding and reflects preliminary discussions only. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not entered into any definitive agreement to acquire Peppermint Hippo Toledo or any other Peppermint Hippo-branded venue, and we have not completed any acquisition under the LOI. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will complete the proposed acquisition of Peppermint Hippo Toledo, enter into any definitive agreement for any additional venue, or successfully implement any broader acquisition strategy in the nightlife and hospitality sector.
If we complete one or more acquisitions in the nightlife and hospitality sector, we expect that such activities would represent an expansion of our business strategy. However, any such expansion would involve substantial risks and uncertainties, including risks associated with the negotiation and completion of acquisitions, the need for additional capital, the receipt and maintenance of required licenses and permits, regulatory compliance, operational integration, and the management of venue-based businesses. See “Risk Factors” for a discussion of risks related to our proposed acquisitions and our potential expansion into the nightlife and hospitality industry.
Our management believes that the nightlife and hospitality industry may present potential acquisition opportunities; however, our evaluation of this sector remains preliminary, and our ability to pursue any such opportunities will depend on available capital, market conditions, the availability of suitable acquisition targets, and our ability to satisfy applicable legal, regulatory, and operational requirements. As of the date of this prospectus, we do not own or operate any Peppermint Hippo-branded venues.
Statements in this subsection regarding proposed acquisitions, future expansion, and potential business strategy are forward-looking statements subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.
UP PROTEIN NUTRITION PRODUCTS
Product Description
Universal protein products are high Protein energy products that contain high-quality ingredients. All UP-Protein products will be non-GMO/Non-Dairy/Gluten Free/Low sugar with no refined sugar. With only natural sugars from dried fruits and berries and natural sugar substitutes.
UP Proteins Products are focused on health and taste. These two factors guide our ingredient selections. Up Proteins Products adhere to the basic principles of a balanced diet with the refinement of using an Orthoptera Protein blend ("Orthoptera" is a biological order that includes insects like grasshoppers and crickets) that provides for cricket powder and other plant-based protein products as its primary source of protein.
UP Proteins Products include ingredients we believe are desired by people who eat healthy, including vegetarians and environmentally conscious people.
A vegetarian diet doesn’t contain any animal or dairy products and relies solely on plant-based foods (and typically encourages a lot of legumes, pulses, and grains). On the other hand, a paleo diet contains meat, fish, and eggs, leaving out these grains and legumes.
Many vegetarians are looking for a good protein source that does not include animal protein. Enter insects (a protein that is not a farm animal and does not have many of the negative issues related to modern-day farming.)
| 16 |
According to a recent study from the University of Copenhagen, insects are an extremely sustainable source of protein, much more so than meat. According to the U.N., the worldwide livestock industry accounts for over 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. By comparison, cricket production is 20 times more efficient as a protein source than cattle, and it produces 80 times less methane. Additionally, insects can thrive on organic waste, allowing farmers to cut back on growing the grain used in animal feed, which requires significant energy and water resources.
The rearing of insects requires dramatically less food than raising beef. For example, according to the FAO (The Food and Agriculture Organization), insects consume just 2 pounds of feed to produce 1 pound of meat, while cattle require 8 pounds of feed to generate 1 pound of beef. That’s why the U.N. called for swapping burgers for bugs.
Insect farming makes economic sense as well. As insects are cold-blooded, they require less energy to stay warm. This helps explain why they are more efficient at converting feed into protein. Consider that crickets need four times less feed than sheep, 12 times less than cattle, and half as much as broiler chickens and pigs to produce the same amount of protein.
The Up-Protein Bar will offer a blend of Vegan and Paleo, replacing animal products with insects.
UP Bars will offer only the highest quality nutrition bars and products, focusing on maximizing health benefits while ensuring taste/texture and appearance are of equal value. UP Bars provides a combination of Cricket powder and other related products delicately mixed to provide the perfect healthy treat.
Cricket and insect consumption in the U.S. seems out of the ordinary because of cultural bias. Americans weren’t raised eating insects, just like other parts of the world weren't brought up eating bacon, beef, or cheese. In other regions of the world, such as Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Australia, people have taken notice of insects as a food source.
But thanks to significant market leaders backing cricket protein companies such as Exo, this cultural bias may be shifting. Mark Cuban from Shark Tank invested when the first edible insect product company, Chapul, presented its business plan. Some of the larger companies involved in the insect-as-food business have already laid down the foundation for the industry.
Below are the eight leading brands of insect bars on the market today, along with some nutritional information:

Insect farming to scale is a new and upcoming market. Many of the aforementioned companies are building out large facilities with the goal of high-volume insect production. As a result, we anticipate lower costs in the near future.
Currently, there are five basic categories of insects that are currently considered as food.
| · | 1/ HEMIPTERA, including Cicadas and water bugs | |
| · | 2/ ORTHOPTERA, including grasshoppers/ locusts and crickets | |
| · | 3/ HYMENOPTERA, including ants, bees and wasps | |
| · | 4/ LEPIDOPTERA, including butterflies and moths | |
| · | 5/ COLEOPTERA, including beetles and weevils |
Of these, ORTHOPTERA (Crickets) is the most abundant in the US.

Marketing
With the U.S. edible insect industry already registering $20 million annually in sales, there seems to be an opportunity for growth. While not yet widely popular, many food makers are convincing Americans to eat bugs by educating them about the various health and environmental benefits associated with the practice. Silkworm soup and grasshopper tacos are available in some San Francisco, New York, and Washington, D.C. restaurants. Recently, Exo, a cricket protein bar, raised more than $4 million from big-name investors. The major insect-based food makers like Exo, Chirap, and Chapul all note on their packaging that their products are gluten-free. Exo and Chapul even specify that their products contain no dairy or soy. Some followers of the Paleo diet in America are already eating cricket powder protein bars. Protein is also a priority for CrossFit devotees and weightlifters; companies like Exo are finding support from such people.
Our initial focus is to penetrate the health-conscious segment with an eye on high-energy sports and active lifestyle markets. The (18-45) age bracket is more environmentally aware and willing to take a chance on something new.
UP Bar intends to play a role in becoming a voice and ardent supporter of earth-friendly companies. From inception, UP will strive to be a carbon-neutral company.
When compared to other more traditional forms of protein (such as the farming of cows/ chickens, etc.), cricket farming dramatically reduces the impact on water/land and food. Crickets need little water to grow. A thousand crickets can fit in a space no larger than a small refrigerator.
| · | To grow 1lb. of beef requires nearly 10 lbs. of feed and over 2000 gallons of water. |
| · | Growing 1lb. of insects requires less than 2 lbs. of feed and less than 12 gallons of water. |
Insects are cheap, nutritious, and—according to some supporters—delicious. There are over 2,100 edible insect species, which offers a vast array of options for food dishes. FAO states that edible insects contain high-quality protein, amino acids, vitamins, calcium, zinc, and iron for humans.
When you have a healthy source of protein, minerals, and other essential nutrients, a Michelin restaurant taste experience might arguably be a secondary priority. Consider that 100 grams of beef contain 29 grams of protein but also 21 grams of fat. On the other hand, 100 grams of grasshopper contain 20 grams of protein and only 6 grams of fat.
In addition to nutritional value, commercial insect production has a much smaller negative impact on the environment than traditional sources of protein. Rearing conventional livestock, for example, accounts for a staggering 18% of total greenhouse gas emissions. But insect breeding releases much less greenhouse gas, methane, and ammonia than raising cattle and pigs and requires less water.
UP Bar will come in completely biodegradable packaging and sourced from top branded companies that adhere to earth-friendly practices.
The company intends to initially market its Up Bars via online sales through its website:
Upproteins.com
The Company’s corporate website is:
TradewindsUniversal.com
The Company has acquired the following domains which it plans to use to also market its products in the future.
| · | OrthopteraProtein.com
(site oriented toward the education and benefits of eating crickets. Also a store to buy products.) |
| · | Edibleinsects.shop |
| · | Humangradeinsectprotein.com |
| · | Tryinsects.com |
| 19 |
The company plans on driving sales through numerous social media platforms such as:
- Facebook\Meta
- Twitter\X
- YouTube
- Vimeo
- Vero
- TikTok
Sales
The company is presently generating revenue by selling its Up Protein product and Distribution Rights for specific territories. These rights are being purchased in advance of product completion in order to secure the acquired territory.
Industry
The Global Edible Insects Market size was estimated at $972.33 Million in 2022 and is expected to reach $1.5 Billion in 2023. In terms of value, the edible insect market is expected to grow at a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 26.5% from 2020 to 2027 to reach $4.63 billion by 2027. Moreover, in terms of volume, the edible insect market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 28.5% from 2020 to 2027 to reach 13,988,626 tons by 2027.
Aspire Food Group once sold insect snacks online; the company now focuses on cricket protein powder and is reportedly the largest supplier in the ingredients space. Aspire said that about 80% of the company’s inventory of cricket protein goes toward pet food, but it is designed to be edible for humans as well, and sees a growing interest in using it as a food ingredient. In October, Aspire which already has a pilot facility in Austin, Texas, in Ontario, Canada. The plant will have the capacity to produce 20,000 metric tons of food-grade cricket protein and frass – cricket waste used for fertilizer – per year.
There is a healthy amount of capital flowing in the insect space. Aspire has raised $21.6 million in funding to date, according to Crunchbase data. And insects have grabbed consumers’ attention, too. “Consumers are already receptive and interested in alternative protein sources beyond traditional beef, pork, and chicken. Some analysts say bugs could soon follow suit and become the next big protein of the future.”
According to Barclays, a new report by the investment bank cites the expanding market around the alternative protein source and predicts the edible bug industry could be worth $8 billion by 2030, up from a little under $1 billion just last year.
The product is already found in experimental cuisines and boasts an eco-friendly reputation. But it has yet to go mainstream despite the proven market for meat alternatives.
The plant-based meat market generated revenue of $4.2 billion globally in 2018, mainly driven by companies such as Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat.** Source CNBC
According to Grand View Research, the global insect protein market was worth $250 million in 2020 and is expected to increase by a compound annual growth rate of 27.4% from 2021 to 2028. Because there is heightened demand from serious consumers looking for new proteins to try, companies that sell insect products no longer advertise it as a freakish novelty item, Ashour said.

FORMULA FOR DOGS
The Company acquired a formula for natural pain relief for animals from BearCreek Resources, Corp. on December 7, 2022 for $30,000. The acquisition gave the Company all rights surrounding the formula with no additional royalties, or any other payment due. Due to the high cost of initial manufacturing the Company elected to license the rights to the formula.
Sales and Marketing
Currently our revenues have come from the sale of the non-exclusive rights to the pain relief formula
On December 7, 2022 we entered into an exclusive licensing rights contract with BearCreek Resources, Corp. for the rights to its pain relief formula for dogs.
The company has licensed the product for pain relief in dogs and plans to continue doing so until it generates sufficient revenue to manufacture and market the product itself using the formula.
Regulation
Our business is subject to regulation by federal and state laws in the United States and the laws of other jurisdictions in which we do business. Advertising and promotional information presented on our websites and in our products, and our other marketing and promotional activities, are subject to federal and state consumer protection laws that regulate unfair and deceptive practices. U.S. federal, state, and foreign legislatures have also adopted laws and regulations regulating numerous other aspects of our business. Regulations relating to the Internet, including laws governing online content, user privacy, taxation, liability for third-party activities and jurisdiction, are particularly relevant to our business. Such laws and regulations are discussed below.
Communications Decency Act. The CDA regulates content of material on the Internet and provides immunity to Internet service providers and providers of interactive computer services for certain claims based on content posted by third parties. The CDA and the case law interpreting it generally provide that domain name registrars and website hosting providers cannot be liable for defamatory or obscene content posted by customers on their servers unless they participate in creating or developing the content.
| 21 |
Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The DMCA provides a safe harbor from liability for third-party copyright infringement. To qualify for the safe harbor, however, registrars and website hosting providers must satisfy numerous requirements, including adoption of a user policy that provides for termination of service access of users who are repeat infringers, informing users of this policy, and implementing the policy in a reasonable manner. In addition, registrars and website hosting providers must expeditiously remove or disable access to content upon receiving a proper notice from a copyright owner alleging infringement of its protected works. A registrar or website hosting provider that fails to comply with these safe harbor requirements may be found liable for copyright infringement.
Lanham Act. The Lanham Act governs trademarks and false advertising. Case law interpreting the Lanham Act has limited liability for many online service providers such as search engines and domain name registrars. Nevertheless, there is no statutory safe harbor for trademark violations comparable to the provisions of the DMCA and we may be subject to a variety of trademark claims in the future.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes to those statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed under the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. See the section titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” elsewhere in this prospectus.
Overview
Tradewinds Universal (“Tradewinds” or the “Company”) is a holding company focused on acquiring and developing businesses with long-term value, resilience, and growth potential. Our initial operations focused on the development and distribution of high-nutrition foods and beverages, including edible insect protein-based bars marketed under the Universal Proteins (UP) brand. In 2022, we also acquired a canine pain relief formula for development into pet treats.
In August 2025, we signed a Letter of Intent with Peppermint Hippo™ to create a dedicated nightlife and hospitality division. The LOI includes the acquisition of Peppermint Hippo Toledo as the initial property, followed by a phased rollout of several clubs nationwide, including 8 Peppermint Hippo locations and other affiliated brands owned or operated by Peppermint Hippo. This move represents a major strategic expansion into a new industry sector.
| 22 |
We successfully completed the development, manufacturing, and initial distribution of two protein bar SKUs (Chocolate Almond and Peanut Butter Fruit) in 2023 through our partnership with YouBar, Inc. In 2024, we entered into a purchase agreement with a distributor for 1,040 cases of UP bars, all of which were sold by September 30, 2024. We continue to market our bars online and to retail outlets, but larger-scale distribution agreements remain uncertain. Development of additional SKUs is ongoing.
Looking ahead, we intend to keep expanding our UP product line, move forward with commercializing our canine pain relief formula, and explore licensing and distribution opportunities. We expect operating expenses to rise as we develop new product lines, enter nightlife and hospitality markets, and continue as a public company. Net losses are likely to vary depending on the timing of marketing efforts, R&D activities, and potential acquisitions. Currently, we are working on securing funding through additional equity or debt financing to support our growth plans.
Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
Revenue
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company generated total revenues of $133,222. Revenue during 2025 was primarily derived from the sale of distribution and licensing rights. By comparison, for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company generated revenues of $171,596, which consisted primarily of affiliate marketing commissions, licensing activity, and sales of the Company’s UP protein bars. The decrease in revenue of $38,374 year-over-year was attributable to the discontinuation of physical product sales and a reduction in affiliate marketing activity as the Company transitioned its business model toward licensing and distribution arrangements.
Cost of Goods Sold
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded no cost of goods sold, as revenues were derived from licensing and distribution rights that did not carry direct production or fulfillment costs. For the year ended December 31, 2024, cost of goods sold totaled $21,645, reflecting manufacturing and fulfillment costs associated with sales of the Company’s UP protein bars.
Gross Profit
As a result of the absence of cost of goods sold in 2025, gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 was equal to total revenues of $133,222, representing a gross margin of 100%. For the year ended December 31, 2024, gross profit totaled $149,951, reflecting a gross margin of 87%. The decline in gross profit was primarily driven by lower overall revenues, partially offset by improved margins due to the shift away from physical products.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $1,026,099, compared to $219,323 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by the sharp rise in consulting expense to $886,105 in 2025 from $5,133 in 2024, along with amortization of $14,800 and higher general and administrative costs, partially offset by lower marketing expense. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to higher consulting and professional fees incurred in connection with business development activities, strategic advisory services, and the Company’s transition toward licensing and distribution-based operations. These increases were partially offset by lower marketing expenses following the discontinuation of UP protein bar sales.
Net Loss
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of $892,877, compared to a net loss of $115,743 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in net loss was primarily driven by the increase in consulting expense, including non-cash stock-based compensation and stock issued for services, plus higher amortization and general and administrative costs, partially offset by the absence of cost of goods sold in 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had total assets of $307,333, compared to total assets of $31,510 as of December 31, 2024. The increase in total assets was primarily attributable to the acquisition of intangible assets and increases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses associated with licensing and distribution activities.
The Company had no significant liabilities as of December 31, 2025. Stockholders’ equity totaled $307,333 at December 31, 2025, compared to $31,510 at December 31, 2024. The increase in stockholders’ equity was primarily the result of equity issuances for cash, services, and asset acquisitions during 2025.
Despite the increase in assets and equity, the Company had limited cash on hand at December 31, 2025 of $16,638, accounts receivable of $48,750, prepaid expenses of $25,445, and an accumulated deficit of $1,183,067. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional capital to fund ongoing operations and future growth initiatives. Management intends to pursue additional equity financing, licensing revenue growth, and strategic partnerships; however, there can be no assurance that such financing or revenue will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

Investing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2025, we had no cash investing activities. We had $200,000 in non-cash investing activities related to the acquisition of an intangible asset.
Financing Activities
Our financing activities mainly consist of proceeds from the sale of our common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we had $74,000 in financing activity from the issuance of common stock for cash, compared to $0 during the year ended December 31, 2024.
The Company believes it has insufficient cash resources to fund its primary operations. The Company currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements and does not expect to enter into any that could reasonably affect its financial condition now or in the future. The Company has no agreements with shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties to fund operations beyond the end of the current period. It has neither negotiated nor has access to any other third-party sources of liquidity.
Off Balance Sheet Items
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, special purpose entities, or other relationships that would have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Significant estimates include the valuation and impairment of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and the recognition of revenue from licensing and distribution agreements. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Outlook
Management expects operating expenses to remain elevated as the Company continues to develop licensing opportunities, pursue strategic acquisitions, and meet its obligations as a public company. While management believes that the Company’s strategic shift toward licensing and distribution may provide improved margins and scalability, the Company expects to continue incurring net losses in the near term. The Company’s ability to achieve profitability will depend on its ability to generate sustainable revenues, control operating costs, and secure additional financing as needed.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had total assets of $307,333, compared to total assets of $31,510 as of December 31, 2024. The increase in total assets was primarily attributable to the acquisition of intangible assets and increases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses associated with licensing and distribution activities.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following descriptions of our Common Stock, Warrants and certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, our Bylaws and Wyoming law are summaries. You should also refer to our Charter and our Bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part.
Authorized Capital Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 75,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share.
Common Stock
Our Common Stock is traded on OTCMarkets under the symbol “TRWD.” The registrar and transfer agent for our Common Stock is VStock Transfer, LLC, located at 18 Lafayette Place Woodmere, New York 11598.
Voting, Dividend and Other Rights. Each outstanding share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters presented to the shareholders for a vote. Holders of shares of Common Stock have no cumulative voting, preemptive, subscription or conversion rights. All shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this registration statement will be duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable. Our Board of Directors determines if and when distributions may be paid out of legally available funds to the holders. To date, we have not declared any dividends with respect to our Common Stock. Our declaration of any cash dividends in the future will depend on our Board of Directors’ determination as to whether, in light of our earnings, financial position, cash requirements and other relevant factors existing at the time, it appears advisable to do so. We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on the Common Stock in the foreseeable future.
| 25 |
Rights Upon Liquidation. Upon liquidation each outstanding share of Common Stock may participate pro rata in the assets remaining after payment of, or adequate provision for, all our known debts and liabilities.
Majority Voting. The holders of one-third (51%) of the voting power of the shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders constitute a quorum at any meeting of the shareholders. A plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders elects our directors. The Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock can elect all of our directors. In general, a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders must authorize shareholder actions other than the election of directors. Most amendments to our certificate of incorporation require the vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding voting shares.
SELLING STOCKHOLDER
This prospectus relates to the offer and sale by the Selling Stockholder of up to 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock that have been and may be issued by us to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. For additional information regarding the shares of Common Stock included in this prospectus, see the section titled “Committed Equity Financing” above. We are registering the shares of Common Stock included in this prospectus pursuant to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement we entered into with the Selling Stockholder on January 29, 2026 in order to permit the Selling Stockholder to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Selling Stockholder has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years. As used in this prospectus, the term “Selling Stockholder” means RH2 Equity Partners.
The table below presents information regarding the Selling Stockholder and the shares of Common Stock that may be resold by the Selling Stockholder from time to time under this prospectus. This table is prepared based on information supplied to us by the Selling Stockholder, and reflects holdings as of January 29, 2026. The number of shares in the column “Maximum Number of Shares of Common Stock to be Offered Pursuant to this Prospectus” represents all of the shares of Common Stock being offered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder may sell some, all or none of the shares being offered for resale in this offering. We do not know how long the Selling Stockholder will hold the shares before selling them, and we know of no existing arrangements between the Selling Stockholder or any other stockholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares of our Common Stock offered by this prospectus.
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act, and includes shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Selling Stockholder has voting power, including the power to vote or to direct the voting of such shares, and/or investment power, including the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of such shares. The percentage of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder prior to the offering shown in the table below is based on an aggregate 42,690,580 shares of our Common Stock outstanding on December 31, 2025.
Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for the shares of Common Stock that we may, in our discretion, elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder from time to time after the date of this prospectus in Purchases pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock at the times we elect to sell such shares to the Selling Stockholder in Purchases under the Purchase Agreement, it is not possible for us to predict, as of the date of this prospectus and prior to any such Purchases under the Purchase Agreement, the actual number of shares of Common Stock that we will sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, which may be fewer than the number of shares of Common Stock being offered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus. The fourth column assumes the resale by the Selling Stockholder of all of the shares of Common Stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus.

| (1) | In accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act, we have excluded from the number of shares beneficially owned prior to the offering all of the shares that the Selling Stockholder may be required to purchase from us at our election from time to time after the date of this prospectus pursuant to Purchases under the ELOC, because the issuance of such shares is solely at our discretion and is subject to conditions contained in the ELOC, the satisfaction of which are entirely outside of the Selling Stockholder’s control, including the registration statement that includes this prospectus becoming and remaining effective. Furthermore, the Purchases of Common Stock are subject to certain agreed upon maximum amount limitations set forth in the ELOC. |
| (2) | Applicable percentage ownership is based on 42,690,580 shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of December 31, 2025. |
| (3) | Assumes the sale of all shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus. |
| (4) | The business address of RH2 LP is 8 The Green, #15337, Dover, DE 19901. RH2’ principal business is that of a private investor. Richard Hawkins and Robert Hymers are the managing principals of RH2. Therefore, each of Richard Hawkins and Robert Hymers may be deemed to have sole voting control and investment discretion over securities beneficially owned directly by RH2 and, indirectly, by RH2. We have been advised that RH2 is not a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, or an independent broker-dealer. The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Fernane and Hymers as to beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned directly by RH2 and, indirectly, by RH2. |
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The shares of Common Stock offered by this prospectus are being offered by the Selling Stockholder, RH2 Equity Partners. The shares may be sold or distributed from time to time by the Selling Stockholder directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The sale of the shares of our Common Stock offered by this prospectus could be effected in one or more of the following methods:
| • | ordinary brokers’ transactions; |
| • | transactions involving cross or block trades; |
| • | through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents; |
| • | “at the market” into an existing market for our Common Stock; |
| • | in other ways not involving market makers or established business markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents; |
| • | in privately negotiated transactions; or any combination of the foregoing. |
In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares may be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from the state’s registration or qualification requirement is available and complied with.
RH2 is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act.
RH2 has informed us that it intends to use one or more registered broker-dealers to effectuate all sales, if any, of our Common Stock that it has acquired and may in the future acquire from us pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Such sales will be made at prices and at terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price. Each such registered broker-dealer will be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. RH2 has informed us that each such broker-dealer will receive commissions from RH2 that will not exceed customary brokerage commissions.
| 27 |
Brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the shares of our Common Stock offered by this prospectus may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the purchasers, for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent, of the shares sold by the Selling Stockholder through this prospectus. The compensation paid to any such particular broker-dealer by any such purchasers of shares of our Common Stock sold by the Selling Stockholder may be less than or in excess of customary commissions. Neither we nor the Selling Stockholder can presently estimate the amount of compensation that any agent will receive from any purchasers of shares of our Common Stock sold by the Selling Stockholder.
We know of no existing arrangements between the Selling Stockholder or any other stockholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares of our Common Stock offered by this prospectus.
We may from time to time file with the SEC one or more supplements to this prospectus or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to amend, supplement or update information contained in this prospectus, including, if and when required under the Securities Act, to disclose certain information relating to a particular sale of shares offered by this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder, including the names of any brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of such shares by the Selling Stockholder, any compensation paid by the Selling Stockholder to any such brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents, and any other required information.
We will pay the expenses incident to the registration under the Securities Act of the offer and sale of the shares of our Common Stock covered by this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder. As consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase our Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement.
We also have agreed to indemnify RH2 and certain other persons against certain liabilities in connection with the offering of shares of our Common Stock offered hereby, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities. RH2 has agreed to indemnify us against liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from certain written information furnished to us by RH2 specifically for use in this prospectus or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable.
We estimate that the total expenses for the offering will be approximately $22,303.
RH2 has represented to us that at no time prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement has RH2 or its agents, representatives or affiliates engaged in or effected, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, any short sale (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of our Common Stock or any hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to our Common Stock. RH2 has agreed that during the term of the Purchase Agreement, neither RH2, nor any of its agents, representatives or affiliates will enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any of the foregoing transactions.
We have advised the Selling Stockholder that it is required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the Selling Stockholder, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the securities offered by this prospectus.
This offering will terminate on the date that all shares of our Common Stock offered by this prospectus have been sold by the Selling Stockholder.
Our Common Stock is currently listed on OTCMarkets under the symbol “TRWD”.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Tradewinds Universal
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Tradewinds Universal (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2025, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 6 to the financial statements, the Company has a history of accumulated deficits. This factor, among others, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 6. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there were no critical audit matters.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Tradewinds Universal
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Tradewinds Universal (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover operating costs. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
Note 1 – Nature of Operations
Nature of Operations
Tradewinds Universal, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Wyoming on December 28, 2021. The Company operates as a holding company focused on acquiring, developing, and managing businesses with long-term value, resilience, and growth potential.
The Company’s initial operations focused on the development and distribution of high-nutrition foods and beverages, including edible insect protein-based products. In 2022, the Company acquired a canine pain relief formula for development into pet-related products. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company expanded its strategic focus to include distribution and licensing activities.
In August 2025, the Company signed a Letter of Intent with Peppermint Hippo™, a company that generates an estimated $30 million in annual revenue, to launch a nightlife and hospitality division. This will begin with the planned acquisition of Peppermint Hippo Toledo and a staged rollout of several additional clubs across the country.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 have been included.
Estimates
The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash And Cash Equivalents
The Company maintains a cash balance in a non-interest-bearing
account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments
with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables
and are stated at the amount management expects to collect. As of December 31, 2025, accounts receivable totaled $
The Company evaluates accounts receivable for
expected credit losses in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses. In estimating expected credit losses,
management considers relevant available information, including historical collection experience, the financial condition and creditworthiness
of the customer, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions that may affect collectibility.
Because the Company had no prior history of credit losses, the receivable balance at December 31, 2025 was due from a single customer
with no history of delinquency or default, and management was not aware of any current or expected future events that would materially
affect the customer’s ability to pay,
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses consist primarily of payments made for services to
be received in future periods and are expensed as the services are consumed. As of December 31, 2025, prepaid expenses totaled $

Intangible Asset
Intangible assets are recorded at cost and amortized over their estimated useful lives unless determined to have an indefinite useful life.
For definite-lived intangible assets, the Company evaluates impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such indicators are present, the Company compares the expected undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds the expected undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s intangible assets consisted of the following:
| · | AI App, net $ |
| · | Formula-Pets $ |
| · | Trademarks $ |
| · | Website, net $ |
Total intangible assets at gross amounted to $
As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s intangible
assets consisted of intangible assets of $
Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on
a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company’s AI application is amortized over five years, and the Company’s
website was amortized over two years. As of December 31, 2025, the website was fully amortized. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are
not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the asset may be impaired. Amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $
Stock Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on the fair value of equity instruments issued.
The Company is authorized to issue shares of common stock, par value per share. As of December 31, 2025, there were shares of common stock issued and outstanding. (See: Note 5 Shareholders' Equity)
The Company issued shares of common stock as compensation for services during the year ended December 31, 2025
There were shares issued for services during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for impairment of intangible assets in accordance
with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other. Definite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are
not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate potential
impairment. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $
As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the Formula-Pets intangible
asset was $

Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in determining revenue recognition: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from distribution rights, licenses, and affiliate commissions.
For each contract, the Company first determines whether an arrangement exists that creates enforceable rights and obligations. The Company then identifies the distinct performance obligations promised in the contract. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration the Company expects to receive under the terms of the arrangement, including fixed amounts and, when applicable, estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. When a contract contains more than one performance obligation, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.
Revenue from distribution rights is recognized at the point in time or over the period in which the customer obtains control of the contractual rights, depending on the nature of the arrangement and the Company’s performance obligations under the contract.
Revenue from licenses is recognized when the licensed intellectual property is made available to the customer or over the license term, depending on whether the license provides a right to use intellectual property as it exists at a point in time or a right to access intellectual property as it evolves over time.
Revenue from affiliate commissions is recognized at the time the underlying qualifying transaction occurs and the commission is earned, which is the point at which the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company evaluates each contract to determine whether it acts as principal or agent, as applicable, and records revenue on a gross or net basis consistent with that determination. Payment terms vary by contract but are generally due within 30 to 90 days. Amounts billed and collected in advance of satisfying the related performance obligations are recorded as deferred revenue.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires
disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and
accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company applies ASC 820, Fair
Value Measurement, which establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair
value into three levels: Level 1, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, observable inputs other
than quoted prices included in Level 1; and Level 3, unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions. The Company did
not elect the fair value option for any eligible assets or liabilities under ASC 825. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had
Income Taxes
In accordance with ASC 740 Income Taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in Income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company has adopted the provisions
set forth in ASC 740 to account for uncertainty in income taxes. In the preparation of income tax returns in federal and state jurisdictions,
the Company asserts certain tax positions based on its understanding and interpretation of the income tax law. The taxing authorities
may challenge such positions, and the resolution of such matters could result in recognition of Income tax expense in the Company's financial
statements. Management believes it has used reasonable judgments and conclusions in the preparation of its income tax returns. The Company
uses the "more likely than not" criterion for recognizing the tax benefit of uncertain tax positions and to establish measurement
criteria for income tax benefits. The Company' s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income
tax expense. The Company had
| F-10 |

|
The Company has incurred net operating losses
and has established a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. As a result,
Net loss per share is computed in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic and diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances annual income tax disclosure requirements. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Accordingly, the Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of this standard did not have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, but required expanded annual income tax disclosures.
Note 3 - Commitments and Contingencies
During the normal course of business, the Company may be exposed to litigation. When the Company becomes aware of potential litigation, it evaluates the merits of the case in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. The Company evaluates its exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies and the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. If the Company determines that an unfavorable outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated, it establishes the necessary accruals. As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company is not aware of any contingent liabilities that should be reflected in the audited financial statements.
Note 4 - Segment Disclosure
ASC 280 “Segment Reporting ”, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the CODM in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company manages its business on the basis of one reportable segment and unit and derives revenues mainly from products, licensing rights and affiliate commissions (see Note 1 for a brief description of the Company’s business).
The Company operates as operating segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the CODM, which is the Company’s chief executive officer, who reviews financial information and annual operating plans for purposes of making operating decisions, evaluating financial performance, and allocating resources.
The key measure of segment profit or loss that the CODM uses to allocate resources and assess performance is the Company’s net income (loss). This is reviewed against budgeted expectations to assess segment performance and allocate resources. The Company’s segment net loss for December 31, 2025, and 2024 consisted of the following:

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The statutes, charter provisions, bylaws, contracts or other arrangements under which controlling persons, directors or officers of the issuer are insured or indemnified in any manner against any liability which they may incur in such capacity are as follows:
Section 17-16-856 of the Wyoming General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
| II-1 |
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that it will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Wyoming General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time, each person that such section grants us the power to indemnify.
The Wyoming General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:
| · | any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; |
| · | acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; |
| · | payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or |
| · | any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. |
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of our directors will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Any repeal or modification of this provision will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation, right or protection of a director of our company existing at the time of such repeal or modification.

Item 17. Undertakings
| (a) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: | |
| (1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: | |
| (i) | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); |
| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
| (iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is a part of the registration statement;
| (2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
| (4) | That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser: |
| (i) | Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and |
| II-4 |
| (ii) | Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date. | |
| (5) | That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |
| (i) | Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; |
| (ii) | Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; |
| (iii) | The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and |
| (iv) | Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
| (6) | That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
| II-5 |
| (7) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. | |
| (8) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: |
| (i) | For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. |
| (ii) | For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of these securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering. |
| (9) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X are not set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information. |
