SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, or Quarterly Report, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We make such forward-looking
statements pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities
laws. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking statements. In some
cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”,
“expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”,
“predicts”, “potential”, “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.
Forward-looking statements
are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance, and are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions
regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future
conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in
circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these
forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:
·
the sufficiency of our existing cash to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs over the next 12 months and our need to raise additional capital;
·
our ability to generate revenue from new software services;
·
our limited operating history;
·
our ability to maintain proper and effective internal financial controls;
·
our ability to continue to operate as a going concern;
·
changes in laws, government regulations and policies and interpretations thereof;
·
our ability to obtain and maintain protection for our intellectual property;
·
the risk of errors, failures or bugs in our platform or products;
·
our ability to attract and retain qualified employees and key personnel;
·
our ability to manage our rapid growth and organizational change effectively;
·
the possibility of security vulnerabilities, cyberattacks and network disruptions, including breaches of data security and privacy leaks, data loss, and business interruptions;
·
our compliance with data privacy laws and regulations;
·
our ability to develop and maintain our brand cost-effectively;
·
our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market; and
·
the other factors set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
These forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q and are subject to business and economic risks. We do not undertake any obligation to update
or revise the forward-looking statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which such statements
were made, except to the extent required by law.

Auddia Inc.
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 – Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Auddia Inc., (the “Company”, “Auddia”,
“we”, “our”) is a technology company that is reinventing how consumers engage with audio through the development
of a proprietary AI platform for audio and innovative technologies for podcasts. The Company is incorporated in Delaware and headquartered
in Colorado.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Interim Financial Information
The condensed financial statements of the Company
included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this Quarterly Report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. The condensed balance sheet
as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. Accordingly,
these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. The Company
recorded all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period and all such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.
Reverse Stock Splits
On February 27, 2024, the Company effectuated a 1-for-25
reverse stock split .
On March 28, 2025, the Company effectuated a 1-for-17
reverse stock split .
The reverse stock splits did not change the authorized
number of shares of the Company’s common stock. No fractional shares were issued and any fractional shares resulting from the reverse
stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole share.
The reverse stock splits applied to the Company’s
outstanding warrants, stock options and restricted stock units. The number of shares of common stock into which these outstanding securities
are convertible or exercisable were adjusted proportionately as a result of the reverse stock splits. The exercise prices of any outstanding
warrants or stock options were also proportionately adjusted in accordance with the terms of those securities and the Company’s
equity incentive plans.
As a result of the reverse stock splits, unless described
otherwise, all references to common stock, share data, per share data and related information contained in these financial statements
have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effect of the reverse stock splits for all periods presented. In addition, any fractional
shares that would otherwise be issued as a result of the reverse stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole share. Further, the
number of shares issuable and exercise prices of stock options and warrants have been retrospectively adjusted in these financial statements
for all periods presented to reflect the reverse stock splits.
8
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The condensed financial statements include some amounts
that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to valuation of capital stock,
warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, and the estimated recoverability and amortization period
for capitalized software development costs. These estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment
could be significant.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to various risks and uncertainties
frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to,
its limited operating history, competition from other companies, limited access to additional funds, dependence on key personnel, and
management of potential rapid growth. To address these risks, the Company must, among other things, develop its customer base; implement
and successfully execute its business and marketing strategy; develop follow-on products; provide superior customer service; and attract,
retain, and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in addressing these or other such
risks.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined
in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay
adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply
to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period to comply with certain new or revised accounting
standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies.
Going Concern
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$ 1,067,756
as of June 30, 2025. The Company will need additional funding to complete the development of the full product line and scale
products with a demonstrated market fit. The Company raised an additional $ 1.5
million (net of offering costs) during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and an additional $ 1.9 million subsequent to June 30,
2025, which will only be sufficient into the fourth quarter of 2025. Management has plans to secure such additional funding. If the
Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on acceptable terms, the Company will be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate
technology development and commercialization efforts.
As a result of the Company’s recurring losses
from operations, and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements, there is uncertainty regarding
the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Management
has plans to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern,
such as the White Lion equity line of credit (refer to Note 7) and additional future financing agreements. However, management cannot
provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. These financial statements do not include
any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s current level of cash is not sufficient
to execute the business plan. For the foreseeable future, the Company will incur significant operating expenses, capital expenditures
and working capital funding that will deplete cash on hand during the fourth quarter of 2025.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company had cash on hand of $ 1,064,918 and $ 2,703,392
as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments
purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash equivalents of $ 2,838 and $ 2,927
as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The Company maintains cash deposits at several financial
institutions, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company’s cash balance may at times
exceed these limits. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $ 0.8 million in excess of federally insured limits. As of December
31, 2024, the Company had approximately $ 2.2 million in excess of federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors its positions
with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests.
Software Development Costs
The Company accounts for costs incurred in the development
of computer software as software research and development costs until the preliminary project stage is completed, management has committed
to funding the project, and completion and use of the software for its intended purpose is probable.
The Company ceases capitalization of development costs
once the software has been substantially completed and is available for its intended use. Software development costs are amortized over
a useful life estimated by the Company’s management of three years. Costs associated with significant upgrades and enhancements
that result in additional functionality are capitalized. Capitalized costs are subject to an ongoing assessment of recoverability based
on anticipated future revenues and changes in software technologies.
Unamortized capitalized software development costs
determined to be in excess of anticipated future net revenues are considered impaired and expensed during the period of such determination.
The Company determined that no such impairments were required during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Software development
costs of $ 239,502 and $ 255,214 were capitalized for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Software development
costs of $ 476,475 and $ 528,602 were capitalized for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Amortization of capitalized
software development costs was $ 356,227 and $ 486,764 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively and $ 787,286 and
$ 963,682 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the
Company’s condensed statement of operations.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue will be measured according to Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and will be recognized based on consideration
specified in a contract with a customer and will exclude any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company
will recognize revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a service or product to a customer. To
achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps: ( 1) Identify the contract with a client; (2) Identify the
performance obligations in the contract; (3) Determine the transaction price; (4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations
in the contract; and (5) Recognize revenues when or as the company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company will report
revenues net of any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is both imposed on, and concurrent with, a specific revenue-producing
transaction between a seller and a customer in the accompanying statements of operations. Collected taxes, if applicable, will be recorded
within other current liabilities until remitted to the relevant taxing authority.
Subscriber revenue will consist primarily of subscription
fees and other ancillary subscription-based revenues. Revenue will be recognized on a straight-line basis when the performance obligations
to provide each service for the period have been satisfied, which is over time as our subscription services are continuously available
and can be consumed by customers at any time. There is no revenue recognized for unpaid trial subscriptions.
Customers may pay for the services in advance of the
performance obligation and therefore these prepayments will be recorded as deferred revenue. The deferred revenue will be recognized as
revenue in the accompanying statements of operations as the services are provided.
10
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation
arrangements with employees, directors, and consultants and recognizes the compensation expense for share-based awards based on the estimated
fair value of the awards on the date of grant in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).
Compensation expense for all share-based awards is
based on the estimated grant-date fair value and recognized in earnings over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period).
The Company records share-based compensation expense related to non-employees over the related service periods.
Certain share-based compensation awards include a
net-share settlement feature that provides the grantee an option to withhold shares to satisfy tax withholding requirements and are classified
as a share-based compensation liability. Cash paid to satisfy tax withholdings is classified as financing activities in the condensed
statements of cash flows.
Warrants
The Company
account for warrants as equity-classified instruments, based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative
guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”).
The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability
pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether
the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which
requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end
date while the warrants are outstanding.

Note 4 – Notes Payable to Related Party,
net of debt issuance costs
On April 9, 2024, the Company
and the investor entered into an Amendment and Waiver Agreement relating to the Company’s outstanding Bridge Notes. Refer to the
Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information regarding the Bridge Notes.
The Company agreed to pay
$2.75 million in cash to the holder in repayment of the principal of the Bridge Notes (exclusive of the $275,000 of original issue discount
on the Bridge Notes) shortly after the closing by the Company of one or more equity financings with total gross proceeds to the Company
of not less than $6,000,000.
On April 26, 2024, the Company
repaid $ 2.75 million of principal on its outstanding Secured Bridge Notes.
Effective April 9, 2024,
the holder converted $ 911,384 (the “Rollover Amount”) which is equal to the (i) unpaid accrued interest on the Bridge Notes
plus (ii) the original issue discount (“OID”) on the Bridge Notes, into equity securities of the Company (the “Rollover
Securities”).
The Rollover Securities consist
of (i) 27,256 prefunded common stock warrants with a per share exercise price of $0.017 per share (the “Prefunded Warrants”)
and (ii) 27,256 non-prefunded warrants (the “Non-Prefunded Warrants”) with a per share exercise price equal to $6.2934.
The number of Non-Prefunded
Warrants was determined by dividing the Rollover Amount by $33.44 (the original exercise price). The number of Non-Prefunded Warrants
is equal to the number of Prefunded Warrants (i.e. 100% warrant coverage). The Non-Prefunded Warrants have a price adjustment provision
which will adjust the exercise price downward in the event that the Company issues equity securities in the future at an effective per
share price below the then current exercise price. The original exercise price of $33.44 has been subsequently adjusted to $6.2934. In
order to assure compliance with applicable Nasdaq rules, the Non-Prefunded Warrants shall not be exercisable for six months following
the date of issue.
12
The Company issued to the
holder 2,942 new common stock warrants with a five-year term as a loan extension fee (“Fee Warrants”). The Fee Warrants have
a price adjustment provision which will adjust the exercise price downward in the event that the Company issues equity securities in the
future at an effective per share price below the then current exercise price. The original exercise price of $33.44 has been subsequently
adjusted to $6.2934. In order to assure compliance with applicable Nasdaq rules, the Fee Warrants shall not be exercisable for six months
following the date of issue.
The Non-Prefunded Warrants
and Fee Warrants had a total valuation of $ 811,402 and the Prefunded Warrants had a valuation of $ 732,370 . As a result, the Company recorded
$ 911,384 as a non-cash charge in connection with the issuance of warrants related to the Bridge Notes and a change in the fair value of
warrants of $ 632,388 upon payoff of the debt during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 All warrants were classified as equity
as they were indexed to the Company’s shares in accordance with ASC 815-40.
Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Lease
On March 25, 2024, the Company entered into a 37-month
operating lease commencing on April 1, 2024 with two separate two year renewal options. The monthly base rent for months two through 14
is $2,456, increasing to $3,070 for months 15 through 26, and ending at $3,684 for months 27 through 37. Rent expense, as part of general
and administrative expenses in the statements of operations, was $ 8,960 and $ 8,960 for the three months ended June 30, 2025
and 2024, respectively and $ 17,920 and $ 25,385 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company is party
to litigation from time to time. The Company maintains insurance to cover certain actions and believes that resolution of such litigation
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. There are no active litigations as of the date the financial statements were issued.
However, a pre-IPO investor has contacted the Company claiming damages caused by alleged acts and
omissions arising from a private financing by the Company. No complaint has been filed by the investor. The alleged damages asserted by
the investor are less than approximately $300,000. The outcome of the complaint was neither probable or estimable as of the date the financial
statements were issued, therefore, no accrual has been made.
Note 6 – Share-based Issuances
Stock Options
The fair value of each option award is estimated on
the date of grant using a Black Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Because Black Scholes
option valuation models incorporate ranges of assumptions for inputs, these ranges are disclosed. Expected volatilities and based on implied
volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock, historical volatility of the Company’s stock, and other factors.
The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the valuation model and represents the period of time that options
granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S.
Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Note 8 – Leases under ASC 842
The Company leases certain office space under operating
leases for use in operations. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Management
determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single component
for all leases. Operating lease right to use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date
based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term, which includes optional renewal periods if the Company
determines it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. As the operating lease does not provide an implicit rate, the discount
rate used in the present value calculation represents the incremental borrowing rate determined using information available at the commencement
date. Rent expense, as part of general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations, was $ 8,960 and $ 8,960 for
the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively and $ 17,920 and $ 25,385 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 9 – Segment Reporting
Operating segments are identified as components of
an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”)
in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance.
The Company views its operations and manages its business
in one operating segment engaged in the technology of how customers engage with audio through the development of a proprietary AI platform
for audio and innovative technologies for podcasts. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as the CODM, regularly
reviews the entity-wide financial and operational performance as a single unit. No financial information is disaggregated into separate
lines of businesses. The CEO makes resource allocation and business process decisions regarding the overall level of resources available
and how to best deploy these resources.
The single segment’s principal measure of segment
profit and loss is consolidated research and development expenses and administrative expenses. The CFO considers actual and forecasted
expenses when evaluating performance.
Note 10 – Subsequent Events
Management evaluated subsequent events and transactions
that occurred after the balance sheet date, up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than
as set forth below, management did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial
statements.
On August 5, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing that it
had entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) for a proposed business combination between the Company and Thramann
Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”).
Through the date of issuance of this report, the
Company issued an additional 360,000 shares of Common stock subsequent to June 30, 2025 under the Company’s existing Equity Line
Common Stock Purchase Agreement for total proceeds of $1.9 million.
On August 5, 2025, the Company entered into a
series of exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with certain accredited investors to exchange 569 outstanding shares
of the Company’s Series B preferred stock (including accrued dividends thereon) for 132,724 shares of common stock at an exchange
price of $4.486 per common share. The issuance of the exchange common shares is intended to be exempt from registration pursuant to the
exemptions under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreements
is a summary only, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the form of Exchange Agreement,

Overview
Auddia (the “Company”)
is an AI technology company headquartered in Boulder, CO that is reinventing how consumers engage with audio through the development of
its faidr app, an industry-first audio platform, which utilizes proprietary AI technology to personalize and customize both radio and
podcast listening experiences.
faidr allows users to listen
to AM/FM radio stations without unwanted commercial breaks. The app replaces these ad breaks in real time with streaming music similar
in format and genre to the radio station being played. The faidr app represents the first-time consumers can combine the local content
uniquely provided by AM/FM radio with commercial-free and personalized listening many consumers demand from digital-media consumption.
In addition to commercial-free AM/FM, faidr includes podcasts – also with ads removed or easily skipped by listeners – as
well as exclusive content, which includes new artist discovery, curated music stations, and exclusive music podcasts that allow hosts
to play full tracks within the episode.
The combination of AM/FM
streaming and podcasting, with Auddia’s unique, AI technology-driven differentiators, addresses large (radio streamers) and rapidly
growing (podcast listeners) audiences.
We have developed our AI
platform on top of Google’s TensorFlow open-source library that is being “taught” to know the difference between all
types of audio content on the radio. For instance, the platform recognizes the difference between a commercial and a song and DJ conversation.
Not only does the technology learn the differences between the various types of audio segments, but it also identifies the beginning and
end of each piece of content.
The faidr app is intended
to be downloaded by consumers who are willing to pay for a customizable, commercial-free listening experience. Our advanced features allow
subscribers to skip any content heard on the station and request audio content on-demand. We believe the faidr App represents a significant
differentiated audio streaming product, the first to give audio streamers a more personalized middle ground between passive content like
broadcast radio and fully on-demand content like Spotify. No other audio streaming app available today, including category leaders like
TuneIn, iHeart, and Audacy, can compete with faidr’s full product offerings.
We launched an MVP version
of faidr through several consumer trials in 2021 to measure consumer interest and engagement with the App. The full app launched on February
15, 2022, and included all major U.S. radio stations in the US. In February 2023, we added faidrRadio, our exclusive content offerings,
to the app. Podcasts were added to the app for the iOS version before the end of Q1 2023 and added to the Android app in May of 2023.
19
In the first half of
2025, we implemented new paywalls and are now testing various price points and marketing strategies aimed at optimizing subscription
conversions. The Company continues to look for opportunities to improve the value faidr delivers to consumers through content
enhancements, improvements in app functionality, and the development of new features. Through these ongoing improvements to the
faidr app and the continuous optimization of the marketing message and strategy to reach the right audiences, the Company continues
to pursue the product market fit required to support a significant increase in marketing spend to drive users and revenue.
The faidr mobile App is available
today through the iOS and Android App stores.
We have funded our operations
with proceeds from the February 2021 IPO, Series A warrants exercised in July 2021 and common share issuance during June of 2023. We also
obtained debt financing through a related party during November 2022 and April 2023, which was subsequently repaid in April 2024. In addition,
we sold common shares during 2025 and 2024 pursuant to our equity line facility. Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating
losses. As of June 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $92,851,762. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve
profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and commercialization of one or more of our Apps. We expect that our expenses
and capital requirements will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly if and as we:
·
nationally launch our faidr App and as we continue training our proprietary AI technology and make product enhancements;
·
continue to develop and expand our technology and functionality to advance the faidr app;
·
rollout our product on a national basis, which will include increasing our sales and marketing costs related to the promotion of our products. faidr promotion will include a combination of a) purchasing ads directly from broadcasters or b) participating broadcasters to promote without purchasing ads, but sharing a portion of subscription proceeds based on listening activity on those stations;
·
continue to pursue and complete potential acquisitions of other companies;
·
hire additional business development, product management, operational and marketing personnel;
·
continue market studies of our products; and
·
add operational and general administrative personnel which will support our product development programs, commercialization efforts and our transition to operating as a public company.
As a result, we will need substantial additional funding
to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product
sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the sale of equity, debt financings or other capital sources, which may include
collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other
agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and
when needed, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and commercialization of one or more of our
product candidates.
Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated
with product development, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when or if we will be able to achieve
or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable
or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be
forced to reduce or terminate our operations.
As of June 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents
of $1,067,756. Through the date of this report, we have secured approximately $3.4 million in additional financing in 2025. We will need
additional funding to complete the development of our full product line and scale products with a demonstrated market fit. Management
has plans to secure such additional funding. However, if we are unable to raise capital when needed or on acceptable terms, we would be
forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate our technology development and commercialization efforts.

Recent Developments
Proposed Business Combination
On August 5, 2025, the Company issued a press release
announcing that it had entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) for a proposed business combination between the
Company and Thramann Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”). Holdings is a privately held holding company that controls LT350, Influence
Healthcare, and Voyex, three early stage AI-native companies founded by Jeff Thramann, Auddia’s founder, CEO and Executive Chairman.
The LOI contemplates a business combination between
Auddia and Holdings with Auddia becoming a public holding company trading under a new name and ticker symbol. The transaction would result
in the portfolio companies of Holding and Auddia becoming subsidiaries of the public holding company. Under the proposed terms, Holdings’
equity holders are expected to receive an 80% ownership interest in the combined company, with Auddia equity holders owning a 20% interest.
The proposed business combination is subject to a
number of known and unknown risk and uncertainties. There can be no assurances that the parties will enter into a definitive business
combination on the terms contemplated hereby or at all. Further, there can be no assurances that such business combination will be approved
by stockholders or will ultimately be consummated.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Strategy
We are exploring various
merger and acquisition options as part of a broader strategy which aims to scale the business more rapidly; accelerate user adoption and
subscriber growth; enter new markets (international); and open new pathways toward raising capital. The overall strategy focuses on three
areas: (1) acquiring retained users of a radio-streaming app, (2) bringing our proprietary ad-free products to that userbase to generate
significant subscription revenue, and (3) bringing together other differentiated features into the larger audio Superapp platform.
Nasdaq Deficiency Notices
During 2022, 2023 and 2024,
the Company received notices from Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with (i) Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which
requires companies listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity for continued listing
or (ii) Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) which requires companies listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market to maintain a minimum of a $1.00 bid
price for continued listing.
On May 24, 2024, we received
a letter from Nasdaq indicating that we had regained compliance with the equity requirement in Listing rule 5550(b) (1). We will be subject
to a Mandatory Panel Monitor for a period of one year from the date of the letter in accordance with application of Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B).
On October 16, 2024, we received
a written notice from Nasdaq indicating that we were not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing. The bid price notice does not result in the immediate delisting of our common stock from
the Nasdaq Capital Market. The bid price notice indicated that we have 180 calendar days (or until April 14, 2025) in which to regain
compliance. If at any time during this 180 calendar day period the bid price of our common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for
a minimum of ten consecutive business days, the Nasdaq staff will provide us with a written confirmation of compliance and the matter
will be closed.
On April 14, 2025, Nasdaq
notified us that we were in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement.
Reverse
Stock Splits
On February 27, 2024, the
Company effectuated a 1-for-25 reverse stock split.
On March 28, 2025, the Company
effectuated a 1-for-17 reverse stock split.
The reverse stock splits
did not change the authorized number of shares of the Company’s common stock. No fractional shares were issued and any fractional
shares resulting from the reverse stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole share.
21
The reverse stock splits
applied to the Company’s outstanding warrants, stock options and restricted stock units. The number of shares of common stock into
which these outstanding securities are convertible or exercisable were adjusted proportionately as a result of the reverse stock splits.
The exercise prices of any outstanding warrants or stock options were also proportionately adjusted in accordance with the terms of those
securities and the Company’s equity incentive plans.
Impact of Inflation
We have recently experienced higher costs across our
business as a result of inflation, including higher costs related to employee compensation and outside services. We expect inflation to
continue to have a negative impact throughout 2025, and it is uncertain whether we will be able to offset the impact of inflationary pressures
in the near term.
Components of our results of operations
Operating expenses
Direct costs of services
Direct cost of services consists
primarily of costs incurred related to our technology and development of our Apps, including hosting and other technology related expenses.
We expect our direct costs of services to increase in the future as we continue to develop and enhance our technology related to the faidr
and podcasting Apps.
Sales and marketing
Our sales and marketing expenses
consist primarily of salaries, direct to consumer promotional spend and consulting services, all of which are related to the sales and
promotion performed during the period. We expect our sales and marketing expenses to fluctuate period by period as we release new upgrades
and enhancements within our Apps and look to generate revenue through customer acquisition, retention, and subscription conversion.
Research and development
Since our inception, we have
focused significant resources on our research and development activities related to the software development of our technology. We account
for costs incurred in the development of computer software as software research and development costs until the preliminary project stage
is completed, management has committed to funding the project, and completion and use of the software for its intended purpose is probable.
We cease capitalization of development costs once the software has been substantially completed and is available for its intended use.
Software development costs are amortized over a useful life estimated by our management of three years. Costs associated with significant
upgrades and enhancements that result in additional functionality are capitalized. Capitalized costs are subject to an ongoing assessment
of recoverability based on anticipated future revenues and changes in software technologies. Unamortized capitalized software development
costs determined to be in excess of anticipated future net revenues are impaired and expensed during the period of such determination.
We expect to continue to incur research and development expenses and capitalization in the future as we continue to develop and enhance
our faidr and podcasting Apps.
General and administrative
Our general and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, including payroll taxes, benefits, stock-based compensation, and professional
fees related to auditing, tax, general legal services, and consulting services. We expect our general and administrative expenses to continue
to increase in the future as we right-size our operating activities and prepare for commercialization of our products and support our
operations as a public company, including increased expenses related to legal, accounting, insurance, regulatory and tax-related services
associated with maintaining compliance with exchange listing and Securities and Exchange Commission requirements, directors and officers
liability insurance premiums and investor relations activities.
Other income and expense
The other income and expense
category primarily consists of interest expense attributed to the debt and conversion features of the Notes payable to related party.

to both our faidr and podcasting Apps and will continue capitalize software costs to the extent that such development qualifies for capitalization.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses decreased by $4,883
or (0.7%) to $729,442 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $734,325 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Our expenses

Revenue
Total revenues for the six
months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $0 as we continue to develop and enhance our faidr and podcasting Apps to establish new revenue
streams.
Direct cost of services
Direct Cost of Services
increased by $15,736 or 16.0% to $114,136 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $98,400 for the six months ended June 30,
2024 due to increased music licensing costs.
Sales and marketing
Sales and marketing expenses
increased by $57,335 or 15.8% to $420,598 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $363,263 for the six months ended June 30,

and marketing expenses to fluctuate period by period as we release new upgrades and enhancements within our apps and look to generate
revenue through customer acquisition, retention, and subscription conversion.
Research and development
Research and development
expenses increased by $308,023 or 94.7% to $633,118 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $325,095 for the six months ended June

to both our faidr and podcasting Apps and will continue capitalize software costs to the extent that such development qualifies for capitalization.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses decreased
by $584,791 or (30.1%) to $1,360,333 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $1,945,124 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in stock compensation expense and professional fees, such as, accounting and legal expenses
due to potential acquisition efforts that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and were not present in 2025.

25
Liquidity and capital
resources
Sources of liquidity
We have incurred operating losses since our inception
and have an accumulated deficit as a result of ongoing efforts to develop and commercialize our faidr and podcasting Apps. As of June
30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,067,756. We have working capital in the amount of approximately $0.6 million as of June
30, 2025. We anticipate that operating losses and net cash used in operating activities will increase over the next 12 months as we continue
to develop and market our products. We secured $1.5 million of financing during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and an additional
$1.9 million subsequent to June 30, 2025, which will only be sufficient to fund our current operating plans into the fourth quarter of
2025. We have based these estimates, however, on assumptions that may prove to be wrong. We will need additional funding to complete
the development of our full product line and scale products with a demonstrated market fit. Management has plans to secure such additional
funding. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on acceptable terms, we would be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate our
technology development and commercialization efforts.
Equity Line Common Stock
Purchase Agreement
On November 25, 2024, we
entered into a new equity line Common Stock Purchase Agreement and a related registration rights agreement with White Lion. Pursuant
to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, we have the right, but not the obligation to require White Lion to purchase, from time to time,
up to $10,000,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares of our common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions
set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement.
In April 2025, we issued
25,000 shares of Common stock under the Equity Line Common Stock Purchase Agreement for total proceeds of $0.1 million.
In July and August 2025,
we issued 360,000 shares of Common stock under the Equity Line Common Stock Purchase Agreement for total proceeds of $1.9 million.
At-the-Market Sales Agreement
During the six months ended
June 30, 2025, we issued 78,901 shares for aggregate proceeds of approximately $0.7 million pursuant to an At-the-Market Issuance
Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC, as sales agent (the “Agent”).
Under the Sales Agreement,
we may sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $10,000,000 from time to time, through an “at
the market offering” (the “ATM Offering”).
Series C Preferred Stock
and Warrants Financing
On June 30, 2025, we entered into a Securities Purchase
Agreement with accredited investors for a convertible preferred stock and warrants financing. We received $750,000 of gross proceeds in
connection with the closing of this financing.
At the closing, we issued 750 shares of Series C convertible
preferred stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $1,000 per share of Series C Preferred Stock. The Series
C Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at an initial conversion price (“Series C Conversion Price”) of $4.77 per
share of Common Stock. We also issued warrants exercisable for 314,466 shares of Common Stock with a five year term and an initial exercise
price of $4.77 per share.
The proceeds of this financing, together with other
available cash resources, will be used for general corporate purposes.
26
Cash Flow Analysis
Our cash flows from operating
activities have historically been significantly impacted by our investment in sales and marketing to drive growth, and research and development
expenses. Our ability to meet future liquidity needs will be driven by our operating performance and the extent of continued investment
in our operations. Failure to generate sufficient revenues and related cash flows could have a material adverse effect on our ability
to meet our liquidity needs and achieve our business objectives.
The following table summarizes
the statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

of $4,852,508 and cash proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares of $2,238,575. This was partially offset by the repayment of the
note payable to related party of $2,750,000, payment of offering costs of $72,807 and net settlement of share-based compensation liability
of $19,686.
27
Funding Requirements
We historically have
incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception and had an accumulated deficit of $92,851,762
and $89,428,436 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash
equivalents of $1,067,756 and $2,706,319, respectively. Our cash is comprised primarily of demand deposit accounts and money market funds.
We secured $ 1.5 million of financing during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and an additional
$1.9 million subsequent to June 30, 2025, which will only be sufficient to fund our current operating plans into the fourth quarter of
2025. We have based these estimates, however, on assumptions that may prove to be wrong. We will need additional funding to complete
the development of our full product line and scale products with a demonstrated market fit. Management has plans to secure such additional
funding. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on acceptable terms, we would be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate our
technology development and commercialization efforts.
We expect our expenses to
increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue the development, and marketing and promotion of faidr.
In addition, we expect to continue to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including legal, accounting,
investor relations and other expenses. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:
·
the scope, progress, results, and costs related to the market acceptance of our products;
·
the ability to attract podcasters and content creators to faidr and retain listeners on the platform;
·
the costs, timing, and ability to continue to develop our technology;
·
effectively addressing any competing technological and market developments; and
·
avoiding and defending against intellectual property infringement, misappropriation and other claims.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We did not have during the
periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial statements
and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related
disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we continually evaluate our estimates and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts
and circumstances. Actual amounts and results may materially differ from these estimates made by management under different assumptions
and conditions.
Certain accounting policies
that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position, are described
below. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial
condition and results of operations.
Software Development Costs
The Company accounts for
costs incurred in the development of computer software as software research and development costs until the preliminary project stage
is completed, management has committed to funding the project, and completion and use of the software for its intended purpose is probable.
The Company ceases capitalization of development costs once the software has been substantially completed and is available for its intended
use. Software development costs are amortized over a useful life estimated by the Company’s management of three years. Costs associated
with significant upgrades and enhancements that result in additional functionality are capitalized. Capitalized costs are subject to an
ongoing assessment of recoverability based on anticipated future revenues and changes in software technologies. Unamortized capitalized
software development costs determined to be in excess of anticipated future net revenues are impaired and expensed during the period of
such determination.
28
Equity-based compensation
Certain of our employees and consultants have received
grants of common shares in our company. These awards are accounted for in accordance with guidance prescribed for accounting for equity-based
compensation. Based on this guidance and the terms of the awards, the awards are equity classified. The common shares receive distributions
if any in an order of priority in accordance with our limited liability company agreement.
The fair value of each award is determined using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model which values options based on the stock price at the grant date, the expected life of the option, the
estimated volatility of the stock, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. The expected volatility was determined
considering comparable companies historical stock prices as a peer group for the fiscal year the grant occurred and prior fiscal years
for a period equal to the expected life of the option. The risk-free interest rate was the rate available with a term equal to the expected
life of the option. The expected life of the option was estimated based on a mid-point method calculation.
Emerging growth company and smaller reporting company status
The Jumpstart Our Business
Startups Act of 2012 permits an “emerging growth company” such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to
comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private
companies. We have elected to not “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards
at the time private companies adopt the new or revised accounting standard and will do so until such time that we either (i) irrevocably
elect to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualify as an emerging growth company.
We are also a “smaller reporting company”
meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100
million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value
of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently
completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. If we are a smaller reporting
company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements
that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two
most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies,
smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.
Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined
by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule
13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were
effective. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required
to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure. We believe that
a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system
are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a
company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over
financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
From
time to time, we are involved in various disputes, claims, suits, investigations, and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course
of business. We believe that the resolution of current pending legal matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Nonetheless, we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, as legal matters
are subject to inherent uncertainties, and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. For additional information, see “Note
4. Commitments and Contingencies” to our financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.
Item 1A.
Risk Factors
In addition to the information
set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in
Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no material changes to our risk
factors from those included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

securities of the Company during the period covered by this quarterly report which were not previously reported in a (i) Current Report
on Form 8-K or (ii) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
See Item 5 below for information regarding unregistered

during the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Other Information
During the quarter
ended June 30, 2025, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated or otherwise had in effect a “Rule 10b5-1 trading
arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
In July and August 2025,
we issued 360,000 shares of Common stock under our existing Equity Line Common Stock Purchase Agreement for total proceeds of $1.9 million.
On August 5, 2025, the
Company entered into a series of exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with certain accredited investors to exchange
569 outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B preferred stock (including accrued dividends thereon) for 132,724 shares of common
stock at an exchange price of $4.486 per common share. The issuance of the exchange common shares is intended to be exempt from registration
pursuant to the exemptions under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The foregoing description
of the Exchange Agreements is a summary only, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the
form of Exchange Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.35 and incorporated herein by reference.
