AURA SYSTEMS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2025 AND 2024
(Unaudited)
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per
share amounts)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Aura Systems, Inc., (“Aura”, “We”
or the “Company”) a Delaware corporation, is engaged in the development, commercialization, and sale of products, systems,
and components, using its patented and proprietary electromagnetic technology. Aura develops and sells AuraGen® axial flux mobile
induction power systems to the industrial, commercial, and defense mobile power generation markets.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements as of and for the three months ended on May 31, 2025 and 2024, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally
included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The Condensed Balance Sheet information as of February 28,
2025, was derived from the Company’s audited Financial Statements as of February 28, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 13, 2025. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report. The
results of operations for the period ended May 31, 2025, may not necessarily be indicative of the results of the full fiscal year ending
February 28, 2026.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last
calendar day of February. Accordingly, the current fiscal year will end on February 28, 2026, and is referred to as “Fiscal 2026”.
Our prior fiscal years ended February 28, 2025, February 29, 2024, and February 28, 2023, and are referred to as “Fiscal 2025”,
“Fiscal 2024” and “Fiscal 2023”, respectively.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet generated sufficient revenues to fund operations,
has experienced recurring operating losses and relies on debt and equity offerings to generate working capital.
During the three month period ended May 31, 2025,
the Company recognized a net loss of $ 2,841 and used cash in operating activities of $ 746 . As of May 31, 2025, the Company also has a
shareholder deficit of $ 39,586 and notes payable totaling $ 5,266 are also past due. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s February 28, 2025, financial statements, raised substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
In the event if the Company is unable to generate
profits and is unable to obtain financing for its working capital requirements, it may have to curtail its business further or cease business
altogether. Substantial additional capital resources will be required to fund continuing expenditures related to our research, development,
manufacturing and business development activities. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to
generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to retain its current financing, to obtain additional financing,
and ultimately to attain profitability.
5
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates
include assumptions made for inventory valuation, impairment testing of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets,
assumptions used in valuing notes payable, derivative liabilities, assumptions used in valuing share-based compensation, and accruals
for potential liabilities. Amounts could materially change in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial
institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution at times may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
insurance limits of up to $ 250 . We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant
risk on cash and cash equivalents.
During the three months ended May 31, 2025, one
customer accounted for 90 % and one customer accounted for 10 % of revenues. During the three months ended May 31, 2024, one customer accounted
for 55 % and one customer accounted for 12 % of revenues. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of revenues.
As of May 31, 2025, four vendors accounted for
40 %, 12 %, 12 % and 10 % of accounts payable. As of February 28, 2025, four vendors accounted for 42 %, 12 %, 11 % and 9 % of accounts payable.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue
from Contracts with Customers .
Our primary source of revenue is the manufacture
and delivery of axial flux induction motors and generator sets used primarily in mobile power applications. Our principal sales channel
is sales to domestic end users and distributors and agents internationally. In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue,
net of discounts, for our generator sets at the time of product delivery and acceptance by the customer (i.e. point-in-time), which also
corresponds to the passage of legal title to the customer and the satisfaction of our performance obligation to the customer.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues stock options
and warrants, and shares of common stock to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing
costs. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized
as expense over the requisite service period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as
if the Company had paid cash for such services.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments
to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments
that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each
reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments,
including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative
instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the
derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
6
The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation
methodology for the derivative liabilities as their fair values were determined by using a Binomial pricing model. The Company’s
derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting date, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being
recorded in the statement of operations.
To determine the number of authorized but unissued
shares available to satisfy outstanding convertible securities, the Company uses a sequencing method to prioritize its convertible securities
as prescribed by ASC 815-40-35. At each reporting date, the Company reviews its convertible securities to determine their classification
is appropriate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company determines the fair values of its
financial instruments based on a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is
based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures
(“ASC 820”), the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
● Level 1 –
Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;
● Level 2 –
Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly;
and
● Level 3 –
Unobservable inputs.
The recorded amounts of inventory, other current
assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of notes
payable and convertible notes payable approximate their respective fair values because of their current interest rates payable in relation
to current market conditions.
The following table sets forth by level, within
the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets and liabilities at fair value as of May 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025:

Loss per share
The Company’s loss per share amounts have
been computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Basic earnings (loss) per share
is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock assuming all potential shares had been issued, and the additional shares of common
stock were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the as-if-converted method for convertible
debt, and the treasury stock method for options and warrants, which could occur if all potentially dilutive securities were exercised.
For the three months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024,
the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potentially dilutive securities would have had an anti-dilutive
effect. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense
Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses which includes amendments that require
disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory;
employee compensation; and depreciation, amortization and depletion expenses for each caption on the income statement where such expenses
are included. The amendments are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted,
and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating this ASU to determine its impact
on the Company’s disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment
Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure . These amendments expand a public entity’s segment disclosures
by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, requiring other
new disclosures, and requiring enhanced interim disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires public entities with a single reportable segment to
provide all the disclosures required by this standard and all existing segment disclosures in Topic 280 on an interim and annual basis.
ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024,
applied retrospectively with early adoption permitted. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has adopted ASU 2023-07. The adoption of this
standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but has resulted in additional disclosures
within the footnotes to our consolidated financial statements (See Note 12).
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued
by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission
did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

The convertible note payable is convertible to common stock at a conversion price of $ 0.20 per share. As of May 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, the outstanding balance of the convertible note amounted to $ 20 and is past due.
9
(c) Convertible note payable-Kopple
In March 2022, the Company entered into a binding term sheet agreement (“note payable”) with Robert Kopple and associated entities (collectively “Kopple”) in the aggregate of $ 10,000 . Robert Kopple is the former Vice-Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and is a current shareholder in the Company. In March 2024, the Company and Kopple amended the note payable, which, among other things, added a conversion feature to the note payable. Accordingly, the amended note payable is reported as a convertible note payable-related party.
The convertible note payable to Kopple is secured by tangible and intangible assets of the Company, bears interest at a rate of 10 % per annum ( 15 % on default) and matures in June 2029. As of May 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, the outstanding balance of the convertible note payable was $ 9,259 .
March 2024 amendment to the Kopple note payable
The amendment to the Kopple note payable (i) replaced a requirement to pay the $ 3,850 past due principal balance with the requirement to pay $ 2,000 on or before December 15, 2024 (see extension below); (ii) increased the stated interest rate to 10 % ( 15 % on default); (iii) added a fee of $ 15 monthly until the Company makes a principal payment of $ 2,000 by December 2024; (iv) effective August 30, 2024, the Company granted Kopple a 36 month right (but not any obligation) to convert the note payable into equity of the Company at a conversion price equal to the lower of $ 1 per share or 50 % of the 10 day volume weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock; (v) requires the Company to pay 20 % of all collected revenues within 10 days of the end of each fiscal quarter; (vi) requires the Company to pay Kopple 20 % of any amount raised in new capital in the form of equity, debt or convertible debt above $ 3,500 ; (vii) reduces the exercise price of the warrants granted to Kopple in March 2022 from $ 0.85 per share to $ 0.50 per share; and (viii) extends the warrant expiration date of the warrants granted to Kopple from March 8, 2029, to March 31, 2031.
On February 28, 2025, an installment payment of $ 2,000 , due in December 2024, was extended to March 31, 2025 in exchange for a cash payment of $ 100,000 , which was recorded as interest expense. On April 28, 2025, Kopple agreed to further extend the installment payment of $ 2,000 due March 31, 2025, to June 30, 2025, in exchange for another cash payment of $ 100,000 .
Accounting for March 2024 amendment to the Kopple note payable as debt extinguishment
The Company accounted for the amended terms of the Kopple note payable as a debt extinguishment because the present value of the cash flows under the amended debt terms is greater by more than 10 % compared to the present value of the remaining cash flows under the original existing debt terms. Furthermore, the amendment granted a conversion option to the note holder and is deemed substantially different from the existing note. The Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $ 19,324 as a result of this amendment, which is the difference between (i) the fair value of the amended convertible note payable of $ 9,259 , combined with the fair value of the conversion option upon issuance of $ 22,194 , and the change in the fair value of the amended warrants of $ 33 , and (ii) the net carrying amount of the former note payable of $ 12,162 .
Other
At February 28, 2025, Kopple alleged that the Company failed to comply with certain non-monetary terms including failing to hold a shareholders’ meeting by August 1, 2024, or otherwise secure additional shares needed to allow the exercise Kopple’s conversion rights, and failure to pay 20 % of all collected revenues within 10 days of the end of each fiscal quarter. In addressing the alleged violation of terms, the Company has provided for interest at the rate of 15 % per annum and reported the entire convertible note payable as current.
The Company is also subject to certain
affirmative and negative covenants such as periodic submission of financial statements to Kopple and restrictions on future financing
and investing activities, as defined in the agreement, including the covenant to not create any indebtedness that is senior in right of
payment to the Kopple debt. Management believes such covenants are normal for this type of transaction and that management believes meeting
these covenants will not affect the operations of the Company.
At May 31, 2025, the total outstanding
convertible notes payable-related party of $ 12,279 and accrued interest of $ 2,749 are convertible into 96,701,184 shares of common stock
at conversion rates ranging from $ 0.20 to $ 1.40 per share.

(a) Jiangsu Shengfeng Note
On November 20, 2019, the Company owned 49 % of
a Chinese joint venture named Jiangsu Shengfeng. The Joint venture advanced Aura $ 700 in prior years for products that the Company failed
to deliver to the joint venture. The Company reached an agreement with the joint venture regarding the return of $ 700 that had been advanced
to the Company in prior years provided the joint venture remains as an operating company. As a result, in November 2019, the Company issued
a non-interest-bearing promissory note for $ 700 to the joint venture to be paid over an 11-month period beginning March 15, 2020, through
February 15, 2021. The joint venture stopped operations in 2020 as a result of COVID-19 and never resumed or restarted operations. In
early fiscal 2024 the joint venture was dissolved and liquidated without filing any demands or claims for payments. As of May 31, 2025
and February 28, 2025, the outstanding balance of this note payable amounted to $ 733 .

NOTE 7 – LEASES
In February 2021, the Company consolidated our
administrative and production operations, including warehousing, within an approximately 18 square foot facility in Lake Forest, California.
The Lake Forest facility lease is for 66-months effective February 2021 through August 31, 2026. The initial monthly base rental rate
was approximately $ 22 per month and escalates 3 % each year to approximately $ 26 per month in 2026. The lease liability was determined
by discounting the future lease payments under the lease terms using a 10 % per annum discount rate to determine the lease liability.
In April 2024, the Company entered into a 60-month
financing lease for a forklift with a cost of $ 47 . The lease has an interest rate of 8 %, including a bargain purchase option to acquire
the forklift at the end of the lease term for a payment of one dollar.
12
Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”)
assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets
represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make
lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company
utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset includes any
lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
In March 2024, pursuant to the amendment of the
Kopple note payable (see Note 3), the Company granted Kopple the right to convert the amended note payable into equity of the Company
at a conversion price equal to the lower of $ 1.00 per share or 50 % of the 10 day volume-weighted average price per share of the Company’s
common stock. The Company analyzed the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging,
and determined that the conversion option should be classified as a derivative liability since it does not have an explicit limit to the
number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the conversion option. The derivative liability is remeasured to fair value at each
reporting period, and the change in the fair value is recognized in earnings in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company
estimated the fair value of the conversion option derivative liability using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the
derivative liability at May 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025 was $ 19,135 and $ 17,565 , respectively.
The following tables summarize the derivative
liability:

NOTE 9 – SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Common Stock
On May 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, the Company
had 150,000,000 shares of $ 0.0001 par value common stock authorized for issuance.
During the three months ended May 31, 2025, the
Company issued 3,415,152 shares of common stock for approximately $ 848 in cash.
During the three months ended May 31, 2024, the
Company issued 4,455,600 shares of common stock for approximately $ 1,117 in cash. As part of the offering, the Company also granted certain
investors warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock. The warrants are fully vested, exercisable at $ 1.00 per share and will
expire in 3 years.
On May 31, 2025, there were insufficient authorized
and unissued shares for the Company to satisfy all of its commitments to deliver shares. The Company’s sequencing policy resulted
in the allocation of authorized and unissued shares in the following order at May 31, 2025 (i) Warrants, and (ii) Convertible Notes Payable
and Convertible Notes Payable-Related Party (excluding the Convertible Note Payable-Kopple). The sequence is based upon reclassifying
securities with the earliest maturity date first. This sequencing and the lack of sufficient authorized shares required the Company to
classify the conversion option of the convertible note payable-Kopple as liabilities recorded at fair value at May 31, 2025 (see Note
8).

Stock Options
In October 2011, the Company’s shareholders
approved the 2011 Director and Executive Officers Stock Option Plan (the “2011 Plan”). Under the 2011 Plan, the Company may
grant options, or warrants, for up to 15 % of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding from time to time. Pursuant
to this plan, the Board or a committee of the Board may grant an option to any person who is elected or appointed a director or executive
officer of the Company. The exercise price of each option shall be at least equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date
of grant, and the term of the options may not be greater than five years. A summary of the Company’s stock option activity is as

NOTE 11 – CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and
claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Our management evaluates our exposure to these claims and proceedings individually
and in the aggregate and evaluates potential losses on such litigation if the amount of the loss is estimable and the loss is probable.
However, the outcome of legal proceedings and claims brought against the Company is subject to significant uncertainty. Although management
considers the likelihood of such an outcome to be remote, if one or more of these legal matters were resolved against the Company for
amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial statements for that reporting period could be materially
adversely affected.
On March 26, 2019, various stockholders of the
Company controlling a combined total of more than 27.5 million shares delivered a signed written consent to the Company removing Ronald
Buschur as a member of the Company’s Board and electing Cipora Lavut as a director of the Company. On March 27, 2019, those same
stockholders delivered a further signed written consent to the Company removing William Anderson and Si Ryong Yu as members of the Company’s
Board and electing Robert Lempert and David Mann as directors of the Company. These written consents represented a majority of the outstanding
shares of the Company’s common stock as of March 26, 2019, and March 27, 2019, respectively. Because of Aura’s refusal to
recognize the legal effectiveness of the consents, on April 8, 2019, the stockholders filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State
of Delaware pursuant to Section 225 of the Delaware General Corporations Law, seeking an order confirming the validity of the consents
and declaring that Aura’s Board consists of Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann, Dr. Lempert, Mr. Douglas and Mr. Diaz-Versón, Jr. On July
8, 2019 the Court of Chancery entered final judgment in favor of the stockholder plaintiffs, confirming that (a) Ronald Buschur, Si Ryong
Yu and William Anderson had been validly removed by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written
consent (b) Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann and Dr. Lempert had been validly elected by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding
stock acting by written consent, and (c) the Company’s Board of Directors validly consists of Cipora Lavut, David Mann, Robert Lempert,
Gary Douglas and Salvador Diaz- Versón, Jr. As a result of prior management’s unsuccessful opposition to this stockholders’
action filed in the Court of Chancery, such stockholders may be potentially entitled to recoup their litigation costs from the Company
under Delaware’s corporate benefit doctrine and/or other legal provisions. To date, no final determination has been made as to the
amount of recoupment, if any, to which such stockholders may be entitled.
NOTE 12. SEGMENT INFORMATION
