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, 2025 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 March 28, 2025, the Company effectuated a 1-for-17 reverse stock split . On March 31, 2026, the Company effectuated a 1-for-7.7 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. 9 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. Going Concern Our existing cash and cash equivalents was $ 1,413,387 at March 31, 2026. The Company secured approximately $ 12.9 million in additional financing through April 30, 2026, which will only be sufficient to fund our current operating plans into the first quarter of 2027. 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 has plans to secure such additional funding. If the Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on acceptable terms, the Company would be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate our 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. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company had cash on hand of $ 455,757 and $ 1,052,990 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 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 $ 957,630 and $ 2,133,995 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 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 March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $ 1.2 million in excess of federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $ 2.9 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. 10 Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives for owned assets, ranging from two to five years . 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. Software development costs of $ 299,637 and $ 236,973 were capitalized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. Amortization of capitalized software development costs was $ 234,603 and $ 431,037 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively and are included in depreciation and amortization expense in the Company’s condensed statement of operations. Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its tangible and limited lived intangible long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. If a potential impairment is indicated, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset to the undiscounted future cash flows associated with the asset. In the event the future cash flows are less than their carrying value, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. The Company determined long-lived assets were no t impaired for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and year ended December 31, 2025. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized in the future. The Company recognizes benefits of uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that such positions will be sustained upon examination based solely on their technical merits, as the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon the ultimate settlement. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a part of income tax expense. Prior to the Company’s conversion to a Delaware corporation in February 2021, the Company was a limited liability company and had elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes. Accordingly, taxable income and losses of the Company were reported on the income tax returns of its members, and no provision for federal income taxes have been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Had the Company been a taxable entity, no provision for income taxes would have been recorded as the Company has sustained losses since inception. 11 Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach, by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842. Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating leases are included in operating lease right of use asset and operating lease liabilities, current and non-current, on the Company’s accompanying balance sheets. 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. Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $ 184,902 and $ 90,096 , respectively. 12 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. 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. 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 may 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 for complying with certain new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies. We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700.0 million as of the prior June 30th, and (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. Based on these criteria, the Company’s emerging growth company status is currently expected to expire on December 31, 2026 , unless it earlier meets one of the disqualifying conditions described above. Note 2 – Property & Equipment, Intangible Assets, and Software Development Costs Property and equipment and software development costs consisted of the following as of: Schedule of property and equipment and software development costs March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025 Computers and equipment $ 102,125 $ 102,125 Furniture 11,258 11,258 Accumulated depreciation ( 107,616 ) ( 106,713 ) Total property and equipment, net $ 5,767 $ 6,670 Domain name $ 3,947 $ 3,947 Patents 31,541 23,596 Accumulated amortization ( 2,413 ) ( 1,758 ) Total intangible assets, net $ 33,075 $ 25,785 Software development costs $ 9,729,556 $ 9,429,985 Accumulated amortization ( 8,055,703 ) ( 7,821,166 ) Total software development costs, net $ 1,673,853 $ 1,608,819 The Company recognized depreciation expense of $ 903 and $ 1,348 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to property and equipment, amortization expense of $ 590 and $ 22 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to intangible assets, and amortization expense of $ 234,603 and $ 431,037 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to software development costs. 13 Note 3 – Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued liabilities consist of the following: Schedule of accounts payable and accrued liabilities March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025 Accounts payable $ 398,041 $ 577,774 Accrued liabilities 204,122 275,580 Total accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 602,163 $ 853,354 Note 4 – Notes Payable On June 20, 2025, the Company entered into a promissory note to finance its directors and officers (“D&O”) insurance premium. The original principal amount of the note was $ 151,300 and bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 8.250 %. The note requires monthly payments of principal and interest and matures on May 20, 2026 . As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal balance was $ 15,130 and $ 60,520 , respectively. The note is unsecured and contains no financial covenants. 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 $ 20,984 and $ 8,960 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, 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 alle ged 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.

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 $ 20,984 and $ 8,960 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, weighted-average remaining lease term and discount rate were as follows: Schedule of weighted-average remaining lease term and discount rate March 31, 2026 Weighted-average remaining lease term 1 year Weighted-average discount rate 8.6 % 18 The following is a maturity analysis of the annual undiscounted cash flows reconciled to the carrying value of the operating lease liabilities as of March 31, 2026: Schedule of annual undiscounted cash flows of leases Years Ended December 31, 2026 $ 32,540 2027 14,735 Less imputed interest ( 2,314 ) Total $ 44,961 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 – Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss, which is allocated based upon the proportionate amount of weighted average shares outstanding, to each class of stockholder’s stock outstanding during the period. For the calculation of diluted net loss per share, net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for basic net loss per share is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under our equity compensation plans. As of March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, 72,339 and 23,046 , respectively of potentially dilutive weighted average shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

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.
