All issued and outstanding common stock, options and warrants to purchase common stock and per share amounts contained in this Report have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the change in capital structure for all periods presented.

 

All share and per share information in these financial statements retroactively reflect this reverse stock split.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks, money market funds, and certificates of term deposits with maturities of less than three months from inception, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value. The Company had no cash equivalents at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

 

Substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company estimates expected credit losses related to accounts receivable balances based on a review of available and relevant information including current economic conditions, projected economic conditions, historical loss experience, account aging, and other factors that could affect collectability. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $0 and $725, respectively.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification ASC 260, ”Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of basic earnings per share on the face of the statements of operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per share computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent share arrangements, stock options and warrants unless the result would be antidilutive. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding Series B Preferred stock and convertible notes, and these were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result was anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and related party payables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high creditworthiness. At times, its cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had 19 customers representing 86% of our revenue compared to 8 customers representing 86% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This is a significant improvement in the revenue concentration. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, 38% and 47% of revenue, respectively, comes from customers under prepayment conditions, which means there are no credit or bad debt risks on that portion of the customers’ portfolio. 

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying values of our financial instruments, including, cash; accounts receivable; prepaid and other current assets; accounts payable; accrued liabilities and other current liabilities; and due from/to related parties approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments.

 

Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated. It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of amounts due to related parties due to their related party nature.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue related to monthly usage charges and other recurring charges during the period in which the telecommunication services are rendered, provided that persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, and collection is reasonably assured. Management considers persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement to be a written interconnection agreement. The Company’s payment terms vary by client.

 

 F-7 
Table of Contents

Usage charges refer to the fees that customers are billed based on their actual usage of the services. For voice services, this typically means charges are based on the duration of calls made. For SMS (text messaging), it usually means charges per message sent. Other recurring charges are referred to charges for services such as (1) Global DIDs, (2) Global Toll-Free Numbers, (3) PBX (Private Branch Exchange) for small businesses, and (4) SIP Trunking. The provision of these services usually has set-up fees and are offered on a subscription or month-to-month basis.

 

Revenue is reported on a gross basis since the Company acts as the principal in the transaction, meaning it has control over the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer. This includes having the primary responsibility for fulfilling the contract and determining the price.

 

With respect to the specific performance obligations of the Company in its contracts with its customers, our standard service agreement establishes the following:

 

  •  The Company agrees to furnish to Customer, and Customer agrees to purchase from the Company, International Long Distance telecommunication services and/or SMS services at the rates agreed to in writing by the Parties.
     
   •  The Company will provide, operate and maintain communications equipment, international links and network administration and support in the United States and other countries as may be agreed upon.
     
   •  The Company will be responsible for its own expenses and will provide, operate, and maintain transmission facilities required to link its domestic network with the other Party's nearest point of presence (POP).
     
   •  The Company shall provide Customer all required IP network addresses, Domain Name Server (DNS) information and, if necessary, the associated prefixes used to exchange voice traffic as provided on the provisioning form.
     
   •  The Company shall take all appropriate security measures to protect its network from fraudulent traffic coming from unknown or unauthorized sources. Any and all IP and network information received by the Company from Customer for the purposes of this agreement shall be strictly confidential, and disclosed only to those employees or personnel with a need to know.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from telecommunication services in accordance with ASC 606. Topic 606 establishes a comprehensive 5 step framework for determining revenue recognition. Under this framework, the Company considers each service a single performance obligation, since typically, the Company provides a series of distinct services.

 

The application of the 5 step Topic 606 revenue recognition framework to the Company's operations is depicted as follows:

 

Topic 606 Conceptual Framework Related Company Policy & Procedures

Step 1 Identify the contract(s) with customer

 

A contract is defined as an approved mutual agreement between the Company and a customer setting performance obligation, and criteria that must be met in accordance with the Company's customary commercial business practices and entered into with the probable expectation that all estimated consideration will be realized in the ordinary course of business.

 

Step 2 Identify the performance obligations

 

Performance obligations are identified in the customer agreement, and any subsequent amendments stated in per minute, time and message usage criteria. The Company considers each service a single performance obligation, including instances where the Company provides a series of services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer.

 

Step 3 Determine the transaction price

 

The transaction price is determined at contract inception and is subsequently reviewed periodically to reflect applicable rate amendments, trends in regulatory, market conditions and usage of service by a customer. The transaction price excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as sales taxes and regulatory fees.

 

Step 4 Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations

 

The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone contractual selling price of the time measured service, net of any related discount.

 

Step 5 Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

The Company recognizes revenues from contracts with customers when control of the usage of the services has been transferred to the customer, as recorded and measured by the Company's internal information systems. Revenues are recognized at the probable amount of consideration expected in exchange for transferring control of usage.

Cost of revenue

 

Costs of revenue represent direct charges from vendors that the Company incurs to deliver services to its customers. These costs primarily consist of usage charges for calls terminated in vendors’ networks.

  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03 Final Standard on Income Statement: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. This guidance will be effective for us on January 1, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.

 

The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative working capital and does not have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish its business plan and eventually attain profitable operations.

 

During the next year, the Company's foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing in the industry and continuing its marketing efforts. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.

 

Historically, the Company has relied upon funds from its stockholders, lines of credit, options and secured and unsecured loans from third parties. Management may raise additional capital through future public or private offerings of the Company's stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company's failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon its operations and its stockholders.

Issued in fiscal year 2024

 

In January 24, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with M2B Funding Corp., a Florida corporation, for it to purchase up to the principal amount of $3,888,889 in secured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) for an aggregate purchase price of $3,500,000 (the “Purchase Price”), which Notes are convertible into shares (“Conversion Shares”) of our common stock with an initial conversion price of $8.80 per share. Each noteholder received shares of common stock (“Kicker Shares”) in an amount equal to ten percent of the principal amount of any Note issued divided by $8.80. The Notes are secured by all of our assets under a Security Agreement signed with the SPA.

 

The initial tranche was executed in January 2024 for $2,222,222 in face value of Notes and 25,253 Kicker Shares, with an original issue discount of $222,222; second and third tranches were executed in March 2024 for $1,111,111 and $555,556, respectively, in face value of Notes and 12,627 and 6,314 Kicker Shares, with an original issue discount of $111,111 and $55,556, respectively. Each one year note bears interest at 18% per annum.

 

In October 2024, we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “Agreement”) with M2B Funding Corp. to extend the maturity date on three promissory notes in exchange for stock consideration. Pursuant to the Agreement, the following promissory notes were extended by 12 months from their original date of maturity:

 

  First Note: Originally due January 1, 2025, with an outstanding amount of $1,888,889, extended to January 1, 2026.
  Second Note: Originally due March 12, 2025, with an outstanding amount of $1,111,111, extended to March 12, 2026.
  Third Note: Originally due March 25, 2025, with an outstanding amount of $555,556, extended to March 25, 2026.

 

In consideration for this extension, the Company issued 8,081 restricted common shares. As a result of the extension, the Company recognized the loss on debt extinguishment of $297,878 as debt extinguishment and debt discount of $61,818 as debt modification during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Certain notes allow for the conversion price to be a fixed price of $12.0 per share.

 

NOTE 10 – STOCK PURCHASE OPTION

NOTE 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS.

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2025 and through the date that these financials were made available, the Company had the following subsequent events:

 

On March 10, 2025, the Company signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with Accredited Solutions, Inc. (“ASII”) to set forth the preliminary terms and mutual understanding between the parties regarding the Company’s potential sale of its 75% equity interest in ItsBchain, LLC (the “Subsidiary”) to ASII, subject to the negotiation and execution of a definitive Purchase Agreement. The parties have agreed to execute the Purchase Agreement no later than June 1, 2025.

 

Under the MOU, in exchange for the 75% interest in the Subsidiary, ASII proposes paying $1,000,000 to the Company as follows:

 

  •  $500,000 in restricted preferred shares of ASII, the terms and features of which will be available prior to execution of the Purchase Agreement, but should contain preferential treatment on the stated value in any liquidation of ASII and a conversion price of the lowest stock price with a 10 day look back at conversion (but with a conversion limitation of 4.99%, but no greater than 9.99%), ensuring IQSTEL’s value is preserved regardless of fluctuations in ASII’s common stock price.
     
   $500,000 in restricted common shares of ASII, which are expected to be registered by ASII in a resale offering that is filed on Form S-1 with the SEC within an agreed time from the close of the Purchase Agreement.

 

At some time in the future, the Company plans to distribute the ASII common shares as dividends to its shareholders.

 

Further under the MOU, the Company will retain a 1% lifetime royalty on the Subsidiary’s total sales. The Company acknowledges a remaining investment commitment of $65,000 related to the Subsidiary. This amount will be paid in monthly installments of $2,500 directly to the Subsidiary.

 

On March 19, 2025, IQSTEL Inc. (the “Company”) signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with Craig Span (the “Seller”) to set forth the preliminary terms and mutual understanding between the parties regarding the Company’s potential purchase a 51% equity interest in GlobeTopper, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “GlobeTopper”) held by the Seller, subject to the negotiation and execution of a definitive Purchase Agreement. The parties have agreed to execute the Purchase Agreement no later than July 1, 2025, or sooner.

 

Under the MOU, in exchange for the 51% interest in the GlobeTopper, the Company proposes paying $700,000 to the Seller with $200,000 in cash over a period set forth in a schedule extending to September 1, 2025, and $500,000 in common stock of the Company with a share price calculated at a 20% discount to the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) over the five days preceding execution of a definitive Purchase Agreement.

 

Further under the MOU, the Company will pay performance bonuses in 2025 and 2026 based on EBITDA growth of GlobeTopper in shares of common stock of the Company using the same discounted VWAP formula above.

 

To support GlobeTopper’s growth, the MOU provides that the Company will provide up to $1,200,000 in structured financing across 24 months after execution, disbursed in monthly installments of $50,000, contingent upon meeting quarterly financial targets.

 

To ensure stability and operational continuity, the Seller will continue to serve as CEO to GlobeTopper, and 2 of the 3 board members will be selected by the Company.

 

The Board of Directors of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s authorized, issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-80, effective on May 2, 2025. The Company amended its certificate of incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock that it may issue from 300,000,000 shares to 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.

Our developing Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Enhanced Metaverse Division (information and content) (www.realityborder.com) is currently developing a groundbreaking white-label solution designed specifically for corporations, businesses, and the telecommunications industry. Delivering a full suite of immersive content services, creating a comprehensive virtual experience that can be accessed through the Web or our proprietary mobile apps. The features include up to four simultaneous video screens for versatile content presentation, various virtual halls such as the main hall, home hall, auditorium, exhibition space, shopping center, and meeting rooms. Stands for mobile application downloads, clickable gates for immediate purchasing, and direct communication tools are seamlessly integrated to foster collaboration, engagement, and interactivity. It goes beyond traditional virtual spaces by utilizing cutting-edge AI technology. This ensures video conferencing and real-time communication with other users within the Metaverse, offering our customers a collective and fully immersive experience that caters to diverse needs such as content acquisition, entertainment, and shared virtual experiences. It is a future-ready platform that encourages creativity, connectivity, and collaboration like never before.

 

Our developing metaverse leverages advanced AI to introduce Non-Player Characters (NPCs) that significantly enhance user engagement and functionality within virtual environments. These NPCs are not mere static elements; rather, they are powered by OpenAI's latest language models, enabling dynamic interaction with users. This AI-driven interaction allows NPCs to serve as sales and brand assistants, guiding users through immersive experiences that can extend to purchasing products from external websites. Furthermore, these intelligent agents can control access to gated spaces within the metaverse based on user interactions, showcasing a personalized approach to user experience.

 

A key innovation in our AI implementation is the NPCs' ability to autonomously make decisions based on their understanding of user interactions. This is achieved through state-of-the-art natural language processing and understanding capabilities, which are supported in seven languages. Additionally, our NPCs utilize advanced text-to-speech and speech-to-text technologies to facilitate seamless communication with users across diverse linguistic backgrounds. The incorporation of "function call" features further enhances the NPCs' ability to perform complex tasks and interact meaningfully with the environment and the users.

 

Our reference to our technology as "cutting-edge" is grounded in our commitment to continuous improvement and innovation. We consistently integrate the latest advancements in AI, particularly in the areas of chatbots, language understanding, and user interaction technologies. This ensures that our metaverse remains at the forefront of AI application in virtual spaces, offering an unparalleled user experience that goes beyond traditional virtual environments.

 

We are currently in an advanced phase of development, with ongoing enhancements to AI functionalities and user interaction models. Our team is dedicated to exploring and implementing the latest AI technologies to ensure that our metaverse remains a leading example of innovation in virtual space technology.

The continued growth of our revenue is the result of the development of our business strategy, which includes the strengthening of our commercial and operating activities and expanding the synergies among our subsidiaries.

 

We expect that our revenue will continue to grow consistently over the coming quarters providing a projected total of $340 million for the year ending December 31, 2025.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Our total cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased to $55,697,858, compared with $50,035,852 for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

 

When looking at the numbers by subsidiary, we have the following breakout for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024:

Our cost of revenues consists of direct charges from vendors that the Company incurs to deliver services to its customers. These costs primarily consist of usage charges for calls and SMS terminated in vendor networks.

 

The behavior in the costs shows a logical correlation with the behavior of the revenue commented on above. We have reached a higher volume of sales and every additional unit sold (minutes and SMS) has its corresponding termination cost.

 

As can be noticed in the analysis of the Gross Margin in the section below, there is an important increase in the margins of Etelix, Whisl and Smartbiz. This increase in the gross margins of Etelix, Whisl and Smartbiz is related to the lower revenue reported by those subsidiaries. These three subsidiaries eliminated routes and destinations of low margins; while the inclusion of QXTEL compensates for the revenue of those low-margin routes in Etelix, Whisl and Smartbiz.

 

This portfolio restructuring is the result of the synergies achieved through the commercial and operational integration of all subsidiaries. This can also be noticed in the high volume of intercompany business. We expect this to impact positively the revenues and the margins in the future.

Gross Margin

Our gross margin, which is simply the difference between our revenues and our cost of sales, discussed above, was $1,934,958 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $1,379,026 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This represents an increase of 40% in the gross margin quarter over quarter.

As mentioned before, this increment in the gross margin is the result of the commercial and operational synergies implemented among all subsidiaries.

The most significant differences are: (1) the increase in technology expenses related to the deployment and upgrade of the Switching platform to allocate all subsidiaries; (2) the increases in other items such as salaries, wages and benefits, or depreciation and amortization, or office, facility and other are the result of the addition of QXTEL to our consolidated financial statements.

 

We are continually identifying operational synergies among all of our subsidiaries to be more cost efficient. The investment we are currently making in the development of a unique voice and SMS switching platform that will allow us to reduce costs between fifty and sixty thousand dollars per quarter.

Operating Income

 

The Company showed negative Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $604,226 compared with a negative result of $183,452 for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

  

Our Telecom Division, which is the one generating revenue at the present time, generated positive Operating Income. The expenses of our Pre-revenue companies are set at the minimum required to finish the development of the product/services prior to market launch.

Other Expenses/Other Income

 

We had total other expenses, net of $519,660 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared with other expenses of $396,764 for the same period ended 2024. The other expenses in 2025 are largely due to $531,726 in Interest Expense associated with the financing for the acquisition of QXTEL, which allows us to drive the organic growth of the Company.

 

Net Loss

 

We finished the three months ended March 31, 2025 with a net loss of $1,144,461, as compared to a loss of $580,216 during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The net loss as of March 31, 2025 is highly impacted by increased operating expenses and interest expense incurred in the acquisition of QXTEL; however, the increase in the Company's value and the beneficial effects of this acquisition could be observed in the $829,064 of gross profit added to our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 which represents 43% of the total consolidated gross profit.

 

Our Telecom Division, the division presently generating revenue, has a positive operating income when presented separately from the rest of our Company. As we have indicated on several occasions, our strategy is to strengthen our telecommunications division so that it can serve as a lever for the development of new lines of business, such as Fintech and Cybersecurity.

In evaluating our financial performance, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to provide insights into the profitability of our core operations. (Please see Adjusted EBITDA, which is reconciled to the Net Income in the table above.) Adjusted EBITDA excludes, in addition to non-operational expenses like interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization; items that we believe are not indicative of our operating performance, such as:

 

          FX Gains and Losses.

          Stock-Based Compensation: As a non-cash expense, this adjustment eliminates variability caused by equity-based incentives.

          Other non-recurrent expenses: Adjusted EBITDA removes one-time, irregular, or non-recurring expenses to reflect the company's sustainable earnings.

 

We believe Adjusted EBITDA offers a clearer view of the cash-generating potential of our business, excluding non-recurring, non-cash, and non-operational impacts.

 

Based on the analysis of our Adjusted EBITDA our Telecom Division is a high-performing division that generates strong operational profits.

 

Consolidated figures show a slightly negative Adjusted EBITDA; while this isn’t ideal, in our opinion it implies the Company is close to breaking even and might achieve positive Adjusted EBITDA with small improvements in efficiency or revenue growth. We are in a transitional period, scaling operations and investing heavily in growth initiatives with the execution of our M&A plan. Management has also identified areas for cost-cutting and operational improvements and has acted in that direction.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2025, we had total current assets of $26,043,799 and current liabilities of $30,279,641, resulting in a negative working capital of $4,235,842.

  

Our operating activities used $1,906,969 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared with $536,888 used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Our cash flow from operations varies depending on our operating results and the timing of operating cash receipts and payments, specifically trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable.

 

Investing activities used $58,645 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared with $1,622,892 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Uses of funds in investing activities in 2025 consisted primarily of the purchase of property and equipment. Uses of funds on investing activities in 2024 were primarily the acquisition of QXTEL.

 

Financing activities provided $540,303 in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared with $3,522,683 provided in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Our positive financing cash flow in 2025 and 2024 was largely the result of the financing secured to complete the acquisition of QXTEL.

 

We intend to fund operations through increased sales and debt and/or equity financing arrangements, to strengthen our liquidity and capital resources. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.

 

We have an outstanding Option with ADI Funding under a stock purchase agreement for $100,000 that expires on July 14, 2025, for the right to acquire up to 187,500 shares of common stock upon an effective registration statement. As of March 31, 2025, the Company did not receive payment of $100,000 and the Option was not in effect, but we anticipate completing the registration statement and receiving the $100,000 from ADI Funding at some point in the near future.

 

If activated, the exercise price per share of the common stock under the Option shall be 70% of the VWAP of the common stock during the then 10 Trading Days immediately preceding but not including the date of exercise. The obligation to exercise each specified portion of the Option is subject to the exercise price, being not less than $8.80 per share on the relevant Option exercise date.

 

Inflation

 

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.

Critical Accounting Polices

 

A “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in the footnotes to our financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025; however, we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets, and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report for a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies.

 

 Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2025, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operation, financial position, or cash flow.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide the information under this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures - Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

 

These controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31, 2025. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

 

We believe that our financial statements presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.

 

Inherent Limitations - Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, which were identified in conjunction with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
