discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The discussion
below contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated
in these forward-looking statements due to various factors, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Overview
Our
Company and our Business Overview
AMC
Robotics Corporation became a publicly traded company upon the completion of its business combination with AlphaVest Acquisition Corp.
on December 9, 2025. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with AMC Corporation deemed the accounting acquirer.
Accordingly, the historical financial statements of AMC Corporation became those of the combined company.
The
Company primarily distributes intelligent security camera products through e-commerce platforms serving customers in the United States,
Canada, and Europe. In addition to product sales, the Company generates recurring revenue through cloud-based intelligent information
services, artificial intelligence service-sharing arrangements, intelligent information services, and revenue-sharing arrangements with
strategic business partners. During 2026, the Company continued to expand its emphasis on higher-margin service-based revenue while maintaining
a more disciplined approach to inventory management and operating expenses.
Prior
to December 2025, certain e-commerce platform accounts were operated through contractual arrangements with third-party entities, including
Ants, Xiaoyun, and Yishijue. Effective December 1, 2025, the Company terminated the contractual arrangements with Xiaoyun and Yishijue
and deconsolidated those variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Since that time, the Company has conducted its operations without
reliance on VIE structures. Limited transitional transactions associated with certain former VIE marketplace accounts continued during
2026 and were accounted for as related-party transactions.
Recent
Development and Future Objectives
Business
Combination
In
December 2025, the Company completed its business combination with AlphaVest Acquisition Corp., pursuant to which AMC Corporation became
a wholly owned subsidiary of AMC Robotics Corporation. The transaction significantly strengthened the Company’s capital structure
and provided access to the public capital markets.
Private
Investment in Public Equity Financing
Concurrently
with the Business Combination, the Company completed a private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing that generated
gross proceeds of approximately $8.0 million. The financing enhanced the Company’s liquidity and financial flexibility to support
working capital requirements, strategic initiatives, and future growth opportunities.
Strategic
Investment
During
the second quarter of 2026, the Company invested an aggregate of $1.0 million in Etronium AI Inc . through two Simple Agreements
for Future Equity (“SAFEs”). The investment reflects management’s strategy of pursuing opportunities in artificial
intelligence technologies that may complement the Company’s long-term robotics and intelligent security solutions. The investment
is accounted for as a long-term investment under the applicable provisions of U.S. GAAP.
Revenue
Strategy
The
Company’s revenue mix has continued to evolve from traditional product sales toward higher-margin recurring revenue generated through
cloud-based intelligent information services, artificial intelligence service offerings, and revenue-sharing arrangements with strategic
partners, including Kami Vision Inc. Management believes this transition reduces working capital requirements associated with inventory-intensive
product sales while supporting improved gross margins and more predictable recurring revenue.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company continued to generate a significant portion of its revenue from cloud-service revenue
sharing, AI service sharing, and intelligent information service arrangements with Kami. The Company also continued to generate product
revenue through sales to related and unrelated customers.
Business
Outlook
Management
remains focused on expanding the Company’s intelligent security and robotics business while continuing to improve operating efficiency
and profitability. Key strategic priorities include:
● expanding
recurring service-based revenue and artificial intelligence solutions;
● strengthening
strategic relationships with technology partners;
● maintaining
disciplined inventory and working capital management;
● pursuing
selective investments that complement the Company’s long-term growth strategy; and
● evaluating
additional financing and strategic opportunities that enhance shareholder value.
The Company may evaluate financing alternatives from time to time to support its working capital requirements, strategic
investments, and long-term growth objectives. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms
or at all.
While
management believes the Company is well positioned to execute its long-term strategy, future operating results will continue to depend
on customer demand, technological innovation, competitive market conditions, the successful execution of strategic initiatives, and general
economic conditions.

The
Company’s financial performance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 reflected a continued shift toward higher-margin
revenue streams and improved operating efficiency. Although total revenues declined compared with the corresponding periods in 2025,
gross profit increased significantly as a result of a more favorable revenue mix and substantially lower product-related costs.
For
the three months ended June 30, 2026, total revenues decreased by $460,098, or 33%, to $937,177, compared with $1,397,275 for the corresponding
period in 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower product revenue, partially offset by an increase in revenue share and
other service-based revenue included within revenue share.
Cost
of revenues decreased by $944,124, or 83%, to $186,570, compared with $1,130,694 for the corresponding period in 2025. The decrease primarily
reflected lower product costs, e-commerce platform expenses, delivery and freight costs, and inventory impairment losses associated with
the reduction in product sales.
As
a result, gross profit increased by $484,026, or 182%, to $750,607, compared with $266,581 for the prior-year period. Gross margin increased
to approximately 80% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from approximately 19% for the corresponding period in 2025. The improvement
was primarily attributable to a greater contribution from higher-margin revenue-sharing and service-based activities and lower product-related
costs.
The
Company reported a loss from operations of $156,500 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with a loss from operations of
$735,036 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing an improvement of $578,536. The improvement was primarily attributable to
increased gross profit and lower sales and marketing expenses, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.
The
Company reported a net loss of $175,730 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with a net loss of $228,913 for the corresponding
period in 2025, representing an improvement of $53,183. The current-year period included an income tax benefit of approximately $1,655,
compared with income tax expense of approximately $1,751 in the prior-year period. The improvement in operating results was partially
offset by total other expense, net, of $20,885 during the current-year quarter, compared with total other income, net, of $507,874 during
the prior-year quarter. The prior-year quarter included $533,688 of other income from a related party.
For
the six months ended June 30, 2026, total revenues decreased by $1,068,007, or 33%, to $2,121,793, compared with $3,189,800 for the corresponding
period in 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower product revenue, partially offset by increased revenue share and service-based
revenue.
Cost
of revenues decreased by $2,084,358, or 86%, to $350,530, compared with $2,434,888 for the corresponding period in 2025. Consequently,
gross profit increased by $1,016,351, or 135%, to $1,771,263, compared with $754,912 in the prior-year period. Gross margin increased
to approximately 83% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from approximately 24% for the corresponding period in 2025.
The
Company reported a loss from operations of $27,961 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with a loss from operations of $1,482,788
for the corresponding period in 2025, representing an improvement of $1,454,827. The improvement primarily reflected increased gross
profit and significantly lower sales and marketing expenses, partially offset by higher general and administrative and research and development
expenses.
The
Company reported a net loss of $30,129 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with a net loss of $306,090 for the corresponding
period in 2025, representing an improvement of $275,961. Total other expense, net, was $1,724 for the first six months of 2026, compared
with total other income, net, of $1,182,772 for the corresponding period in 2025. The prior-year period included $1,217,586 of other
income from a related party. The Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $444 and $6,074 for the six months ended June 30,
2026 and 2025, respectively.
During
the second quarter of 2026, the Company invested an aggregate of $1.0 million in Etronium AI Inc. through two Simple Agreements for Future
Equity. The investment supports the Company’s long-term strategy of pursuing artificial intelligence technologies that may complement
its robotics and intelligent security solutions.
Overall,
the results for the first six months of 2026 reflected significantly improved gross margins, reduced sales and marketing expenditures,
and a substantial reduction in operating loss, despite lower total revenues.
Revision
of Previously Issued Financial Statements
During
the preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026,
management identified certain immaterial errors in the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2025. The errors primarily related to the omission of accrued professional service fees.
Management
evaluated the errors in accordance with applicable accounting guidance and concluded that they were not material, individually or in
the aggregate, to the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Accordingly, an amendment or restatement of those financial statements was not required.
31
Management
also concluded that correcting the errors entirely in the three months ended March 31, 2026 would have materially misstated the Company’s
results of operations for that interim period. Therefore, the Company revised the December 31, 2025 comparative balance sheet included
in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements to reflect the correction of the immaterial prior-period errors.
The
revisions increased accrued expenses and other current liabilities and accumulated deficit by approximately $109,000 as of December 31,
2025. The revisions had no effect on the Company’s cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Results
of Operations
The
Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 reflected continued progress in its transition
toward a higher-margin, more capital-efficient business model. Although total revenues declined compared with the corresponding periods
in 2025, the Company achieved significant improvements in gross profit and operating results through changes in revenue composition,
disciplined cost management, and reduced product-related expenses.
The
most significant drivers of the year-over-year changes include:
●
A
continued shift away from traditional inventory-intensive product sales toward higher-margin revenue-sharing arrangements;
●
Continued
growth in recurring revenue generated through revenue-sharing and related-party service arrangements;
●
A
substantial reduction in product costs, e-commerce platform expenses, freight costs, and inventory impairment losses resulting from
lower inventory-related activities;
●
Significantly
lower sales and marketing expenditures while maintaining disciplined operating cost management; and
●
Continued
strategic collaboration with related parties, which remained an important source of revenue during the periods presented.
Management
believes these changes reflect its long-term strategy of improving profitability, reducing working capital requirements, and expanding
recurring revenue streams.

Total
revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $937,177, a decrease of $460,098, or 33%, compared with $1,397,275 for the same
period in 2025. Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $2,121,793, a decrease of $1,068,007, or 33%, compared with
$3,189,800 for the corresponding period in 2025.
The
decrease in revenues during both periods was primarily attributable to lower third-party product sales as the Company continued to reduce
its emphasis on inventory-intensive product distribution. This decline was partially offset by continued growth in revenue generated
through revenue-sharing arrangements with related parties.
Product
revenue decreased by $591,366, or 79%, during the second quarter and by $1,711,151, or 87%, during the first six months of 2026 compared
with the corresponding periods in 2025. The decrease primarily reflected lower sales volumes as management continued to shift its business
strategy away from lower-margin product sales toward higher-margin service-based activities.
Product
revenue from related parties totaled $5,143 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $146,655 for the corresponding period
in 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, product revenue from related parties totaled $141,691, compared with $ 146,789
for the corresponding period in 2025.
Revenue
share from related parties increased by $272,780, or 54%, during the second quarter and by $648,242, or 60%, during the first six months
of 2026. Revenue-sharing arrangements represented approximately 83% and 81% of total revenues during the three- and six-month periods
ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with approximately 36% and 34%, respectively, during the corresponding periods in 2025.
The
Company’s revenue mix continued to evolve during 2026, with revenue-sharing arrangements becoming the primary source of revenues.
Management believes these arrangements generally require substantially less working capital, involve lower direct costs than traditional
product sales, and support higher gross margins. The Company expects to continue pursuing opportunities that expand recurring and service-based
revenue while maintaining a disciplined approach to inventory investment.

Cost
of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $186,570, compared with $1,130,694 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing
a decrease of $944,124, or 83%. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $350,530, compared with $2,434,888 for the
corresponding period in 2025, representing a decrease of $2,084,358, or 86%.
The
decrease in cost of revenues during both periods was primarily attributable to lower product-related costs resulting from reduced product
sales volumes, together with significant reductions in e-commerce platform expenses, product procurement costs, delivery and freight
costs, and inventory impairment losses. These reductions reflect management’s continued efforts to reduce inventory-intensive operations
and improve operating efficiency.
Gross
profit increased to $750,607 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $266,581 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing
an increase of $484,026, or 182%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, gross profit increased to $1,771,263 from $754,912 for the
corresponding period in 2025, representing an increase of $1,016,351, or 135%.
Gross
margin improved to approximately 80% and 83% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with approximately
19% and 24%, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 2025. The increase primarily reflected a significant change in revenue mix.
Revenue-sharing and service-based arrangements, which generally have limited direct costs and are recognized on a net basis, represented
approximately 83% and 81% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. By comparison, product revenue
declined substantially and represented a smaller portion of total revenue. Accordingly, the improvement in consolidated gross margin
was primarily attributable to the increased proportion of revenue generated from higher-margin revenue-sharing and service-based activities,
together with lower product-related costs and inventory impairment charges.
Management
believes the continued shift toward service-based and recurring revenue, together with disciplined inventory and cost management, has
strengthened the Company’s gross profitability and positioned the business for more capital-efficient growth.

with $2,237,700 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing a decrease of $438,476, or 20%. The overall decrease during both periods
was primarily attributable to significantly lower sales and marketing expenditures, partially offset by higher general and administrative
expenses.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses were $884,349 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $784,236 for the corresponding period
in 2025, representing an increase of $100,113, or 13%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, general and administrative expenses were
$1,739,135, compared with $1,601,648 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing an increase of $137,487, or 9%. The increases
primarily reflected higher professional fees, public company compliance costs, legal and accounting fees, and other administrative expenses
incurred following the Company’s Business Combination and continued operation as a publicly traded company.
Sales
and Marketing Expenses
Sales
and marketing expenses decreased to $19,758 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $208,107 for the corresponding period in 2025,
representing a decrease of $188,349, or 91%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, sales and marketing expenses decreased to $34,090
from $612,219, representing a decrease of $578,129, or 94%. The decreases primarily reflected substantially reduced advertising, promotional,
and customer acquisition activities as the Company continued to emphasize higher-margin revenue-sharing arrangements rather than expanding
traditional product sales.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses were $3,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $9,274 for the corresponding period in 2025,
representing a decrease of $6,274, or 68%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, research and development expenses were $25,999, compared
with $23,833 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing an increase of $2,166, or 9%. The year-to-date increase primarily reflected
continued investment in product development and technology initiatives, while quarterly expenditures may fluctuate depending on the timing
of development activities.
33
Overall,
the Company’s operating expense profile reflects management’s continued emphasis on cost discipline. The substantial reduction
in sales and marketing expenditures, together with disciplined management of operating costs, partially offset the increase in public
company compliance and administrative expenses and contributed to the Company’s improved operating results during the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2026.

for the corresponding period in 2025.
The
most significant factor affecting the year-over-year comparison was the absence of other income from related parties during the 2026
periods. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $533,688 and $1,217,586, respectively, of other
income from related parties, while no comparable income was recognized during the corresponding periods in 2026. As a result, total other
income declined significantly despite improvements in other components.
Other
income (expense), net decreased by $36,064 during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and by $52,739 during the six months ended June
30, 2026, compared with the corresponding periods in 2025, primarily reflecting higher non-operating expenses.
Interest
income increased to $33,042 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $131 for the corresponding period in 2025, and increased to
$61,693 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $448 for the corresponding period in 2025. The increases primarily reflected higher
average cash balances following the Company’s Business Combination and PIPE financing completed in December 2025.
No
interest expense was recognized during the three or six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $8,082 and $24,584, respectively, during
the corresponding periods in 2025, reflecting the repayment or settlement of interest-bearing obligations.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Overview
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.5 million, compared with approximately $7.0 million as
of December 31, 2025, representing a decrease of approximately $2.5 million during the first six months of 2026. The decrease primarily
reflected approximately $1.5 million of net cash used in operating activities and the Company’s $1.0 million investment in Etronium
AI Inc., partially offset by approximately $20,000 of proceeds from the exercise of warrants.
Compared
to June 30, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased significantly, primarily reflecting the proceeds received from
the Business Combination and the related PIPE financing completed in December 2025, which substantially strengthened the Company’s
liquidity position.
The
Company’s liquidity continues to be influenced by several key factors, including:
● operating
performance, particularly revenue growth, gross margins, and expense management;
● working
capital management, including the collection of trade receivables and the timing of payments
to vendors and related parties;
● inventory
management and the Company’s continued transition toward a less inventory-intensive
business model;
● strategic
investments that support the Company’s long-term growth objectives; and
● access
to external financing through equity or debt capital markets, if additional capital is required.
During
the second quarter of 2026, the Company invested an aggregate of $1.0 million in Etronium AI Inc. through two SAFEs. Management believes
this strategic investment complements the Company’s long-term strategy of expanding its artificial intelligence and robotics capabilities
while maintaining sufficient liquidity to support its ongoing operations.
Management
believes that the Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents, together with anticipated cash flows from operations, will be sufficient
to meet its expected working capital requirements, planned operating activities, and capital expenditure needs for at least the next
twelve months from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. However, the Company’s future
liquidity will continue to depend on its ability to generate positive operating cash flows, effectively manage working capital, successfully
execute its strategic initiatives, and, if necessary, obtain additional financing on acceptable terms. There can be no assurance that
any financing will be completed on acceptable terms or at all.

Operating
Activities
Net
cash used in operating activities was $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash provided by operating
activities of $675,160 for the corresponding period in 2025, representing a decrease of approximately $2.2 million.
The
use of cash during the 2026 period was primarily attributable to changes in working capital. Accounts receivable—related party
increased by approximately $1.2 million, primarily reflecting amounts due under the Company’s revenue-sharing arrangements and
product sales to related parties. Advances to suppliers—related party increased by approximately $1.1 million, primarily reflecting
advance payments for inventory and other anticipated operating requirements. These uses of cash were partially offset by an approximately
$259,000 decrease in other receivables—related party, an approximately $248,000 decrease in inventories, and an approximately $116,000
decrease in prepaid expenses.
Investing
Activities
Net
cash used in investing activities was $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $529,432 during the corresponding
period in 2025.
The
cash used in investing activities during 2026 consisted primarily of the Company’s $1.0 million strategic investment in Etronium
AI Inc. through two SAFEs. During the corresponding period in 2025, investing activities primarily consisted of the issuance of a promissory
note, partially offset by collections on a note receivable from a stockholder.
Financing
Activities
Net
cash provided by financing activities was $20,085 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash used in financing activities
of $321,982 during the corresponding period in 2025.
Financing
activities during 2026 primarily reflected proceeds received from the exercise of warrants. Financing activities during the corresponding
period in 2025 primarily reflected a $500,000 capital contribution from a shareholder, partially offset by the repayment of a short-term
loan of $821,982.
As
a result of the foregoing activities, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.5 million during the first six months of 2026, from $7.0
million at December 31, 2025 to $4.5 million at June 30, 2026. The decrease primarily reflected cash used in operating activities and
the $1.0 million strategic investment, partially offset by warrant exercise proceeds.
Capital
Resources
The
Company’s principal sources of capital are its cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and, when appropriate,
access to equity and other financing sources. Following the Business Combination completed in December 2025, the Company significantly
strengthened its capital structure through the receipt of trust proceeds and PIPE financing. During the six months ended June 30, 2026,
the Company also received proceeds of approximately $20 thousand from the exercise of warrants.
The
Company’s capital requirements are primarily driven by working capital needs, operating expenses associated with its business and
public company reporting obligations, strategic investments, and the continued development of its products and technology offerings.
During the second quarter of 2026, the Company invested $1.0 million in Etronium AI Inc. through two SAFEs, which management believes
support the Company’s long-term artificial intelligence and robotics strategy.
The
Company does not maintain a revolving credit facility or other committed borrowing arrangements. Although the Company may continue to
evaluate additional financing opportunities to support future growth initiatives, management believes that its existing cash resources
and anticipated operating cash flows will be sufficient to fund its operating requirements, capital expenditures, and other contractual
obligations for at least the next twelve months from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
However, the Company’s future capital requirements will depend on its operating performance, working capital needs, strategic initiatives,
and ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms. There can be no assurance that any financing will be completed on acceptable
terms or at all.
Contractual
Obligations and Commitments
The
Company’s contractual obligations consist primarily of operating lease obligations and other operating liabilities, as disclosed
in Note 9 – Leases and Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Lease
Obligations (ASC 842)
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company had operating lease liabilities of approximately $81,800, consisting of $58,900 classified as current and
$22,900 classified as non-current. The Company had approximately $84,700 of undiscounted future minimum lease payments remaining under
its operating lease agreements. Management believes these obligations do not represent a significant liquidity burden.
Purchase
Commitments
The
Company enters into purchase commitments with suppliers in the ordinary course of business. These commitments are generally short-term
in nature and are intended to support anticipated customer demand. Management continues to monitor inventory levels and procurement activities
to efficiently manage working capital and minimize exposure to long-term purchase commitments.
35
Related
Party Obligations
The
Company continues to conduct transactions with related parties in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2026, accounts receivable—related
party were approximately $3.3 million, compared with approximately $2.1 million as of December 31, 2025. Advances to suppliers—related
party were approximately $1.1 million as of June 30, 2026, compared with approximately $21,000 as of December 31, 2025. Other receivables—related
party decreased to approximately $217,000 from approximately $476,000 during the same period. These balances affected the Company’s
operating cash flows during the first six months of 2026. Management continues to monitor the collection, settlement and realization
of these balances. Additional information regarding related-party balances and transactions is included in Note 6 - Related Party Balances
and Transactions.
Other
Commitments and Contingencies
The
Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims, and other contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. Management
does not believe that any currently pending matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Overall
Liquidity Assessment
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company had $4.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and believes its liquidity position remains sufficient to
support its ongoing operations. During the first six months of 2026, cash decreased primarily as a result of the Company’s $1.0
million strategic investment in Etronium AI Inc. and changes in working capital, partially offset by proceeds received from the exercise
of warrants.
Management
believes that the Company’s current cash resources, together with anticipated cash flows from operations, provide a solid financial
foundation to meet its near-term operating requirements and execute its strategic initiatives. Nevertheless, the Company will continue
to monitor its liquidity and capital requirements and may pursue additional financing opportunities as market conditions and business
needs warrant.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses,
and related disclosures. These estimates are based on historical experience, current conditions, and various other assumptions that management
believes are reasonable under the circumstances.
Because
of the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Management continually
evaluates its accounting estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances change.
There
have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies or significant estimates during the six months ended
June 30, 2026 from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
36
Revenue
Recognition (ASC 606)
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers 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 generates revenue primarily from product sales, revenue-sharing arrangements, and related services. A significant area of judgment
involves determining whether the Company acts as a principal or an agent in certain revenue arrangements, particularly those involving:
●
E-commerce
platform sales
●
Revenue-sharing
arrangements; and
●
Transactions
with related parties (see Note 6 – Related Party Balances and Transactions).
This
assessment requires management to evaluate a number of factors, including control over the specified goods or services before transfer
to the customer, inventory risk, discretion in establishing pricing, and primary responsibility for fulfilling contractual obligations.
When
the Company concludes that it is the principal in an arrangement, revenue is recognized on a gross basis. When the Company concludes
that it acts as an agent, revenue is recognized on a net basis. Changes in these judgments could materially affect the amount of revenue
and cost of revenue reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue-sharing
arrangements also require significant judgment in identifying performance obligations, determining the transaction price, and assessing
the timing of revenue recognition. Differences in contractual terms or changes in the underlying facts and circumstances could affect
the timing and amount of revenue recognized.
Inventory
Valuation (ASC 330)
Inventory
is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the moving-average cost method, which approximates actual
cost.
Management
evaluates inventory for excess quantities, obsolescence, slow-moving items, and expected future demand. These assessments require significant
judgment regarding forecasted customer demand, product life cycles, technological developments, pricing trends, and competitive market
conditions.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded inventory impairment charges of $49,929. Nevertheless, inventory valuation continues
to be sensitive to changes in customer demand, product innovation cycles, and market conditions, which could result in additional write-downs
in future periods.
Allowance
for Expected Credit Losses (ASC 326)
The
Company measures expected credit losses in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses , using a methodology
that considers historical loss experience, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
A
significant portion of the Company’s accounts receivable and other receivables relates to transactions with related parties (see
Note 6 – Related Party Balances and Transactions), resulting in concentrations of credit risk. Management evaluates the collectability
of these balances on an ongoing basis by considering the financial condition of counterparties, historical payment experience, contractual
terms, and other relevant information.
Although
the Company has experienced limited historical credit losses, deterioration in the financial condition of customers or related parties,
changes in business relationships, or adverse economic conditions could require the Company to record additional allowances for expected
credit losses in future periods.
37
Warranty
Liabilities
The
Company provides limited warranties on certain products and records an estimated warranty liability at the time the related revenue is
recognized.
Warranty
liabilities are estimated based on historical claims experience, product failure trends, expected repair or replacement costs, and other
relevant factors. These estimates require significant judgment and are subject to change as additional information becomes available.
Actual warranty costs may differ from management’s estimates due to changes in product design, manufacturing quality, customer
usage patterns, or other factors, and such differences are recognized in the period in which they become known.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company continued to experience relatively low warranty claims, and management believes that
the recorded warranty liability appropriately reflects its estimated future warranty obligations. However, actual warranty experience
could differ from current estimates, which may require adjustments to warranty expense and the related liability in future periods.
Variable
Interest Entity (VIE) Consolidation (ASC 810)
The
Company evaluates its involvement with VIEs in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation. A VIE is consolidated when the Company determines
that it is the primary beneficiary because it has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s
economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant
to the VIE.
Historically,
the Company consolidated certain VIEs that operated e-commerce platform accounts. In December 2025, the Company terminated the contractual
arrangements that established its controlling financial interest in those entities and deconsolidated the VIEs. As of June 30, 2026,
the Company no longer consolidates those entities, and management has concluded that no additional entities require consolidation under
ASC 810.
The
evaluation of VIE relationships requires significant judgment, particularly in assessing contractual arrangements, decision-making authority,
and the Company’s economic interests in an entity. Changes in contractual arrangements, ownership interests, or the Company’s
level of involvement could require a reassessment of consolidation conclusions in future reporting periods.
Related
Party Transactions (ASC 850)
The
Company engages in transactions with related parties in the ordinary course of business, including product sales, procurement activities,
revenue-sharing arrangements, and other operating transactions (see Note 6 – Related Party Balances and Transactions).
Accounting
for related-party transactions requires management to exercise judgment in determining the appropriate recognition, measurement, classification,
and disclosure of such transactions. Because these arrangements are not necessarily negotiated on terms equivalent to those that prevail
in arm’s-length transactions, management evaluates the underlying contractual terms and economic substance of each arrangement
to ensure appropriate accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP.
The
Company monitors related-party transactions and outstanding balances on an ongoing basis and believes that all material related-party
transactions have been appropriately recognized and disclosed in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Forward
Purchase Agreement
In
connection with the Business Combination completed in December 2025, the Company entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement (“FPA”)
with Harraden Circle Investments. Under the terms of the arrangement, the Company funded prepayments in exchange for the future settlement
of shares of its common stock.
As
of June 30, 2026, the FPA subscription receivable remained $1,678,678, unchanged from December 31, 2025. The Company continues to account
for the FPA as an equity transaction. Accordingly, the outstanding subscription receivable is presented as a reduction of additional
paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity.
There
were no material changes to the terms or accounting treatment of the FPA during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Income
Taxes (ASC 740)
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes , which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets
and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.
Management
evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards, and records a valuation allowance when
it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
This
evaluation requires significant judgment regarding:
●
Future
taxable income
●
Timing
of reversals of temporary differences
●
Tax
planning strategies
Changes
in these assumptions could result in adjustments to deferred tax assets, valuation allowances, and income tax expense in future reporting
periods.
38
Sensitivity
of Estimates and Judgments
The
Company’s financial results are particularly sensitive to changes in estimates related to:
●
Revenue
recognition, including principal-versus-agent assessments;
●
Inventory
valuation and impairment;
●
Collectability
of accounts receivable and related-party receivables;
●
Warranty
liabilities;
●
VIE
consolidation conclusions; and
●
The
recoverability of deferred tax assets.
Changes
in these assumptions could materially affect the Company’s reported revenue, gross profit, operating results, net income, financial
position, and cash flows. For example, changes in principal-versus-agent conclusions could significantly affect reported revenue and
cost of revenue, while changes in assumptions regarding inventory obsolescence or the collectability of related-party receivables could
materially affect operating results.
Management
continually evaluates these estimates and assumptions and updates them as facts and circumstances change.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
For
a discussion of recently adopted accounting standards and accounting standards issued but not yet adopted, see Note 2 – Recent
Accounting Pronouncements to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Management
does not expect that any accounting standards issued but not yet effective will have a material impact on the Company’s condensed
consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(b)(1) of Regulation S-K.
Historically,
the Company consolidated certain VIEs used in connection with its e-commerce operations. Following the termination of the underlying
contractual arrangements in December 2025, the Company deconsolidated those entities. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has no material
exposure to the assets, liabilities, or operations of those former VIEs other than ordinary-course contractual relationships, which management
does not consider material.
The
Company has no material guarantees, retained interests in transferred assets, unconsolidated special-purpose entities, or other off-balance
sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.
Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The
Company is exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of business, including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, concentration
risk, and general economic conditions.
Foreign
Currency Risk
A
portion of the Company’s operations is conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the VND. The Company may also
have limited exposure to other currencies through ordinary-course transactions with international counterparties. Accordingly, fluctuations
in foreign currency exchange rates may affect the translation of revenues, costs of revenues, operating expenses, assets, and liabilities
into U.S. dollars.
The
Company does not currently use derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency exposure.
Interest
Rate Risk
The
Company’s exposure to interest rate risk is limited because it has no significant interest-bearing debt outstanding. Interest income
is earned on cash and cash equivalents balances, and changes in market interest rates may affect future interest income. Management does
not believe that interest rate risk is material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Concentration
Risk
The
Company has concentrations of credit and business risk arising from its relationships with certain customers, suppliers, and related
parties. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, a substantial portion of the Company’s revenue continued to be generated through
revenue-sharing arrangements and transactions involving related parties. As a result, changes in the financial condition or operating
performance of these counterparties could materially affect the Company’s operating results and cash flows.
Sensitivity
Analysis
Management
believes that a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material impact on the Company’s financial
position, results of operations, or cash flows based on its current level of foreign currency exposure.
39
Inflation
and Economic Conditions
The
Company’s business is subject to the effects of inflation and broader macroeconomic conditions, which may affect both operating
costs and customer demand.
Inflationary
pressures may increase the costs of components, manufacturing, logistics, labor, and other operating expenses. Although the Company continually
evaluates pricing strategies and cost-control initiatives, it may not be able to fully offset increases in operating costs through price
increases.
Economic
uncertainty, inflation, higher interest rates, or reduced consumer spending could adversely affect demand for the Company’s products
and services. In addition, global supply chain disruptions, changes in component availability, and fluctuations in freight costs could
adversely affect the Company’s ability to procure inventory and maintain operating margins.
Management
continues to monitor these risks and seeks to mitigate their impact through disciplined cost management, strategic sourcing, pricing
initiatives, and ongoing supply chain optimization.
