CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Except
for historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”). Such forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words “believes”, “anticipates”,
“expects”, “intends”, “estimates”, “plans” and words of similar import. Such forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements,
or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements.
Forward-looking
statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, potential target businesses, the economy and
other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties,
risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by
the forward-looking statements. We caution you therefore that you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as statements
of historical fact or as guarantees or assurances of future performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements include changes in local, regional, national or global political, economic, business,
competitive, market (supply and demand), regulatory conditions and the following:
●
Our ability to raise capital
when needed and on acceptable terms and conditions;
●
Our ability to make acquisitions
and integrate acquired businesses into our company;
●
Our ability to attract
and retain management with experience in the business of importing, packaging and selling of seafood;
●
Our ability to negotiate,
finalize and maintain economically feasible agreements with suppliers and customers;
●
The availability of crab
meat and other premium seafood products we sell;
●
The intensity of competition;
and
●
Changes in the political
and regulatory environment and in business and fiscal conditions in the United States and overseas.
A
description of these and other risks and uncertainties that could affect our business appears in the section captioned “Risk Factors”
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 which we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
on June 23, 2025. The risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” are not exhaustive.
Given
these uncertainties, readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result
of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or developments.
All
references in this Quarterly Report to the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”, are to Blue
Star Foods Corp., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries, John Keeler & Co., Inc., d/b/a Blue Star Foods, a Florida
corporation (“Keeler & Co.”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Coastal Pride Seafood, LLC, a Florida limited liability

1. Company Overview
Blue
Star Foods Corp., a Delaware corporation (“we”, “our”, the “Company”), is an international
sustainable marine protein company based in Miami, Florida that imports, packages and sells refrigerated pasteurized crab meat, and
other premium seafood products. The Company’s main operating business, John Keeler & Co., Inc. (“Keeler &
Co.”) was incorporated in the State of Florida in May 1995. The Company has three other subsidiaries, Coastal Pride, TOBC and
AFVFL which maintain the Company’s fresh crab meat, steelhead salmon and packaged seafood and other inventory businesses,
respectively. The Company’s current source of revenue is importing blue and red swimming crab meat primarily from South East
Asia and distributing it in the United States and Canada under several brand names such as Blue Star, Oceanica, Pacifika, Crab &
Go, First Choice, Good Stuff and Coastal Pride Fresh, and steelhead salmon and rainbow trout fingerlings produced under the brand
name Little Cedar Farms for distribution in Canada.
On
February 3, 2022, Coastal Pride entered into an asset purchase agreement with Gault Seafood, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability
company (“Gault Seafood”), and Robert J. Gault II, President of Gault Seafood (“Gault”) pursuant to which Coastal
Pride acquired all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to assets relating to Gault Seafood’s soft-shell crab
operations, including intellectual property, equipment, vehicles and other assets used in connection with the soft-shell crab business.
Coastal Pride did not assume any liabilities in connection with the acquisition. The purchase price for the assets consisted of a cash
payment in the amount of $ 359,250 and the issuance of 8,355 shares of common stock of the Company with a fair value of $ 359,250 . Such
shares were subject to a leak-out agreement pursuant to which Gault Seafood could not sell or otherwise transfer the shares until February
3, 2023.
On
February 1, 2024, the Company entered into a ninety-day Master Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with Afritex
Ventures, Inc. a Texas corporation (“Afritex”), pursuant to which the Company will be responsible for all of Afritex’s
operations and finance functions. The Company will provide Afritex with working capital in order to sustain operations and will purchase
certain inventory listed in the Services Agreement. In consideration for its services, during the term of the Services Agreement, the
Company will earn all of the revenue and profits by the purchase and sale of Afritex’s inventory. Under the Services Agreement,
Afritex may not sell or otherwise use as consideration any of its intellectual property without the Company’s consent. The Company
must maintain certain commercial liability insurance during the term of the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement also provides
that the Company may not solicit Afritex employees for 24 months nor circumvent existing business relationships of Afritex for three
years, after the term of the Services Agreement. The term of the Services Agreement will automatically extend for three thirty-day periods,
if Afritex’s outstanding debt is no greater than $325,000. The Company automatically extended the Service Agreement to August 31,
2024 after which it expired. The Company incurred losses of approximately $1.5 million from our Services Agreement with Afritex.
In
connection with the Services Agreement, on February 12, 2024, the Company entered into an Intangibles Assets and Machinery Option to
Purchase Agreement with Afritex (the “Option Agreement”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Company has the option to
purchase Afritex’s intangible assets, machinery and equipment set forth in the Option Agreement for a purchase price of $ 554,714
for machinery and equipment and 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued on February 12, 2024 to be held in escrow,
for intangible assets. The Company did not exercise its option to purchase such intangible assets, machinery and equipment.
In
connection with the Services Agreement, on February 1, 2024, AFVFL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in the
State of Florida for the purpose of purchasing raw materials from Afritex for the preparation of packaged seafood and other inventory
to be sold to various customers in the United States.
8
On
May 20, 2024, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to affect a one-for-fifty reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock
Split”) , which became effective the same day. All share and per share amounts have been restated for all periods presented to reflect
the Reverse Stock Split.
Note
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
following unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete annual financial statements.
The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from
the Company’s annual financial statements that were audited by our independent registered public accounting firm but does not include
all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on June 23, 2025 for a broader discussion of our business and the risks inherent
in such business.
Advances
to Suppliers and Related Party
In
the normal course of business, the Company may advance payments to its suppliers, including of Bacolod Blue Star Export Corp. (“Bacolod”),
a related party based in the Philippines. These advances are in the form of prepayments for products that will ship within a short window
of time. In the event that it becomes necessary for the Company to return products or adjust for quality issues, the Company is issued
a credit by the vendor in the normal course of business and these credits are also reflected against future shipments.
As
of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the balance due from the related party for future shipments was approximately $ 1,300,000 .
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company determined it was appropriate to record an allowance for the full balance due from
Bacolod. No new purchases have been made from Bacolod since November 2020. There was no cost of revenue related to inventories purchased
from Bacolod recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
As
of September 30, 2025, the Company made payments to John Keeler for an unsecured promissory note which has already been paid off in the
year 2024. These payments exceeded the amount owed under the note, resulting in an overpayment of approximately $ 131,000 as advance to
related party. Management is evaluating the appropriate method for recovery or settlement of the overpaid amount.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as
such, we record revenue when our customer obtains control of the promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration
which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s source of revenue is from importing
blue and red swimming crab meat primarily from South East Asia and distributing it in the United States and Canada under several brand
names such as Blue Star, Oceanica, Pacifika, Crab & Go, First Choice, Good Stuff and Coastal Pride Fresh, and steelhead salmon and
rainbow trout fingerlings produced under the brand name Little Cedar Farms for distribution in Canada. We sell primarily to food service
distributors. The Company also sells its products to wholesalers, retail establishments and seafood distributors.
9
To
determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs
the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer by receipt of purchase orders and confirmations sent by the Company
which includes a required line of credit approval process, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract which includes shipment
of goods to the customer FOB shipping point or destination, (3) determine the transaction price which initiates with the purchase order
received from the customer and confirmation sent by the Company and will include discounts and allowances by customer if any, (4) allocate
the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract which is the shipment of the goods to the customer and transaction
price determined in step 3 above and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation which is when the
Company transfers control of the goods to the customers by shipment or delivery of the products.
The
Company elected an accounting policy to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities. Consideration payable to a
customer is recorded as a reduction of the arrangement’s transaction price, thereby reducing the amount of revenue recognized,
unless the payment is for distinct goods or services received from the customer.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable consist of unsecured obligations due from customers under normal trade terms, usually net 30 days. The Company grants credit
to its customers based on the Company’s evaluation of a particular customer’s credit worthiness.
Allowances
for credit losses are maintained for potential credit losses based on the age of the accounts receivable and the results of the Company’s
periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Receivables are written off as uncollectible and deducted from
the allowance for doubtful accounts after collection efforts have been deemed to be unsuccessful. Subsequent recoveries are netted against
the allowance for credit losses. The Company generally does not charge interest on receivables.
Receivables
are net of estimated allowances for doubtful accounts and sales return, allowances and discounts. They are stated at estimated net realizable
value. As of September 30, 2025, the Company recorded allowances for sales returns, allowances and discounts of $ 24,300 and refund liability
of $ 0 . There was no allowance for bad debt recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the Company
recorded sales return, allowances and discounts of $ 39,000 and refund liability of $ 57,000 . There was no allowance for bad debt recorded
for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Inventories
Substantially
all of the Company’s inventory consists of packaged crab meat located at a public cold storage facility and merchandise in transit
from suppliers. The Company also has eggs and fish in process inventory from TOBC and raw materials for packaged seafood and other inventory
from AFVFL. The cost of inventory is primarily determined using the specific identification method for crab meat and raw materials for
packaged seafood inventory. Fish in process inventory is measured based on the estimated biomass of fish on hand. The Company has established
a standard procedure to estimate the biomass of fish on hand using counting and sampling techniques. Inventory is valued at the lower
of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined using the first-in, first-out method for crab meat and raw materials for packaged
seafood inventory and using various estimates and assumptions in regard to the calculation of the biomass, including expected yield,
market value of the biomass, and estimated costs of completion.
Merchandise
is purchased on a cost and freight shipping point basis, and it becomes the Company’s asset and liability upon leaving the suppliers’
warehouse.
10
The
Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and records an allowance to reduce the carrying value of inventory to the
lower of cost or net realizable value based on its assessment of market conditions, inventory turnover and current stock levels. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded an inventory allowance of $ 916,573 . For the year ended December 31, 2024,
the Company recorded an inventory allowance in the amount of $ 1,417,305 which was charged to cost of goods sold.
The
Company’s inventory as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 consists of:

Lease
Accounting
The
Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases , which requires all leases to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use
assets and lease obligations. The Company elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance that retained the
lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard.
The
Company categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance. Finance leases are generally
those leases that would allow the Company to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. Assets acquired
under finance leases are recorded in property and equipment, net. All other leases are categorized as operating leases. The Company did
not have any finance leases as of September 30, 2025. The Company’s leases generally have terms that range from 3 three years for
equipment and 6 six to seven years for real property. The Company elected the accounting policy to include both the lease and non-lease
components of its agreements as a single component and accounts for them as a lease.
Lease
liabilities are recognized at the present value of the fixed lease payments using a discount rate based on similarly secured borrowings
available to us. Lease assets are recognized based on the initial present value of the fixed lease payments, reduced by landlord incentives,
plus any direct costs from executing the lease. Lease assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in
operations. Leasehold improvements are capitalized at cost and amortized over the lesser of their expected useful life or the lease term.
When
we have the option to extend the lease term, terminate the lease before the contractual expiration date, or purchase the leased asset,
and it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option, we consider these options in determining the classification and measurement
of the lease. Costs associated with operating lease assets are recognized on a straight-line basis within operating expenses over the
term of the lease.
11
Long-lived
Assets
Management
reviews long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets are estimated over
the asset’s useful life on an undiscounted basis. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable,
the potential impairment is measured using fair value. Fair value estimates are completed using a discounted cash flow analysis. Impairment
losses for assets to be disposed of, if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of disposal. No impairment
was recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Foreign
Currency Exchange Rates Risk
The
Company manages its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through its normal operating activities. Its primary
focus is to monitor exposure to, and manage, the economic foreign currency exchange risks faced by, its operations and realized when
the Company exchanges one currency for another. The Company’s operations primarily utilize the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar
as its functional currencies. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates affect its financial statements.
Fair
Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Fair
value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date and is measured using inputs in one of the following three categories:
Level
1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to
access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.
Level
2 measurements are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar
assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or market data other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.
Level
3 measurements are based on unobservable data that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value
of the assets or liabilities.
Our
financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, debt obligations, derivative liabilities
and warrant liabilities. We believe the carrying values of our cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate
their fair values because they are short term in nature or payable on demand. The derivative liability is the embedded conversion feature
on the 2023 Lind convertible note. All derivatives and warrant liabilities are recorded at fair value. The change in fair value for derivatives
and warrants liabilities is recognized in earnings. The Company’s derivative and warrant liabilities are measured at fair value
on a recurring basis using the Black Scholes Pricing model as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. There were no financial assets
and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis under Levels 1 and 2.

Information
The
Company’s business consists of one operating segment, which is also its one reportable segment. The Company derives revenue by
providing sales of primarily seafood products to customers. The Company’s CODM is its chief executive officer who reviews financial
information presented on a consolidated basis. The CODM reviews total assets in the consolidated balance sheets and net loss and its
components in the consolidated statement of operations such as, cost of goods sold and other operating expenses, to assess financial
performance and allocate resources.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
ASU
2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic 740)
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU aims to enhance
the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities to provide more disaggregated information
in the effective tax rate reconciliation and for income taxes paid. Key provisions include a requirement for tabular reconciliation using
both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories, with certain reconciling items at or above a 5% quantitative threshold
further disaggregated by nature and/or jurisdiction. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosure of income taxes paid (net of refunds received),
disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign jurisdictions, and amounts paid to individual jurisdictions that comprise 5% or more
of total income taxes paid. The ASU also eliminates certain existing disclosure requirements related to unrecognized tax benefits and
cumulative unrecognized deferred tax liabilities. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual
periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial
statements and related disclosures. The Company does not expect this adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.
13
ASU
2024-03 – Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures
(Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public business entities to disclose more detailed
information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to their financial statements, both in annual and interim filings. The objective
is to provide investors with greater transparency into a company’s expense structure, enabling a better understanding of performance,
assessment of future cash flows, and comparison with other entities. Key provisions include the disaggregation, in a tabular format,
of specific natural expense categories such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization,
within each relevant expense caption on the income statement. The ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses
and a qualitative description of expenses remaining in the “other” category. For public business entities, the amendments
are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements and
disclosures.
ASU 2025-01 – Income Statement—Reporting
Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date
In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income
Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date.
This update clarifies the effective date guidance in ASU 2024-03, which requires public business entities to disclose, in the notes to
the financial statements, the disaggregation of certain income statement expense line items. The amendments do not change the disclosure
requirements established by ASU 2024-03 but clarify when entities are required to apply them. For public business entities, the amendments
are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements and
disclosures.
ASU 2025-05 — Financial Instruments —
Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments —
Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This ASU introduces a practical expedient
to simplify the estimation of expected credit losses for current trade accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from revenue
transactions accounted for under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under the expedient, entities may assume that current
conditions as of the balance sheet date will persist for the remaining life of those short-term assets when measuring expected credit
losses. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and
interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact
of adopting this ASU on its financial statements and disclosures.
Note
3. Going Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $ 2,332,713 , had an accumulated deficit of $ 48,621,933 and
a working capital deficit of $ 1,664,699 . These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to increase revenues,
execute on its business plan to acquire complimentary companies, raise capital, and to continue to sustain adequate working capital to
finance its operations. The failure to achieve the necessary levels of profitability and cash flows would be detrimental to the Company.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as
a going concern.

May 30, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lind pursuant to which
the Company issued to Lind a secured, two-year, interest free convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $ 1,200,000
(the “2023 Lind Note”) and a warrant (the “Lind
Warrant”) to purchase 8,701
shares of common stock of the Company commencing six months
after issuance and exercisable for five 5 years
at an exercise price of $ 122.50 per share. The Lind Warrant includes cashless exercise and full ratchet anti-dilution provisions. In
connection with the issuance of the Lind Note and the Lind Warrant, the Company paid Lind a $ 50,000 commitment fee. The proceeds from
the sale of the Note and Warrant are for general working capital purposes.
In
connection with the issuance of the 2022 Lind Note, the Company and Lind amended the 2022 Security Agreement to include the new 2023
Lind Note, pursuant to an amended and restated security agreement, dated May 30, 2023, between the Company and Lind.
The
Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of common
stock issuable pursuant to the 2023 Lind Note and Lind Warrant. Lind was also granted piggyback registration rights.
15
If
the Company engages in capital raising transactions, Lind has the right to purchase up to 20 % of the new securities for 24 months.
The
2023 Lind Note is convertible into common stock of the Company after the earlier of 90 days from issuance or the date the registration
statement is effective, provided that no such conversion may be made that would result in beneficial ownership by Lind and its affiliates
of more than 4.99 % of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The conversion price of the 2023 Lind Note is equal to
the lesser of: (i) $ 120.00 ; or (ii) 90 % of the lowest single volume-weighted average price during the twenty-trading day period ending
on the last trading day immediately preceding the applicable conversion date, subject to customary adjustments. The maximum number of
shares of common stock to be issued in connection with the conversion of the 2023 Lind Note and the exercise of the Lind Warrant, in
the aggregate, will not, exceed 19.9 % of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company immediately prior to the date of the 2023
Lind Note, in accordance with NASDAQ rules and guidance. Due to the variable conversion price of the 2023 Lind Note, the embedded conversion
feature was accounted as a derivative liability. The fair value of the derivative liability at issuance amounting to $ 264,687 , was recorded
as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the note.
The
2023 Lind Note contains certain negative covenants, including restricting the Company from certain distributions, stock repurchases,
borrowing, sale of assets, loans and exchange offers.
Upon
the occurrence of an event of default as described in the 2023 Lind Note, the 2023 Lind Note will become immediately due and payable
at a default interest rate of 120 % of the then outstanding principal amount of the Lind Note.
The
Warrant entitles the Investor to purchase up to 8,701 shares of common stock of the Company during the exercise period commencing on
the date that is six months after the issue date (“Exercise Period Commencement”) and ending on the date that is sixty months
from the Exercise Period Commencement at an exercise price of $ 122.50 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The Warrant includes
cashless exercise and full ratchet anti-dilution provisions.
On
July 27, 2023, the Company, entered into a First Amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement Amendment”)
with Lind, which provided for the issuance of further senior convertible promissory notes up to an aggregate principal amount of up to
$ 1,800,000 and the issuance of additional warrants in such amounts as the Company and Lind shall mutually agree.
Pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Company issued to Lind a two-year, interest free convertible promissory note in the principal
amount of $ 300,000 and a warrant to purchase 3,505 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $ 67.00 per share for
$ 250,000 . In connection with the issuance of the note and the warrant, the Company paid a $ 12,500 commitment fee. The proceeds from the
sale of the note and warrant are for general working capital purposes.
Due
to the variable conversion price of the convertible promissory note, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement Amendment, the embedded conversion
feature was accounted for as a derivative liability. The fair value of the derivative liability at issuance amounting to $ 118,984 , was
recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the note.
On
August 3, 2024 the Company and Lind entered into a waiver and acknowledgement agreement.
The
Company and Lind previously entered into that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 20, 2023, as amended on July 27,

August, 2024, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (each a “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with each
of Quick Capital, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Quick Capital”) and Jefferson Street Capital, LLC, a New Jersey
limited liability company (“Jefferson”) whereby we issued promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $ 550,000
(the “August Private Placement Offering”).
The
Company agreed to issue to Quick Capital and Jefferson up to 39,300 shares of our Common Stock as a “Commitment Fee”.
As
part of the August Private Placement Offering, the Company issued two promissory notes each in the principal amount of $ 275,000 with
an original issue discount of $ 25,000 (the “Private Placement Notes”). The Private Placement Notes have a one-time interest
payment of $ 27,500 . Thereafter, any principal amount of interest which is not paid upon maturity will accrue at a rate of the lesser
of (i) sixteen percent ( 16 %) per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid.
The Private Placement Notes have a maturity date of 10 months after issuance and the proceeds from the notes are for general corporate
purposes. The Company agreed to issue to each of Quick Capital and Jefferson 19,650 shares of Common Stock as additional consideration
for entering into Private Placement Notes.
The
investors have the right, at any time on or following the earlier of (i) the date that any of the shares are registered for resale under
a registration statement of the Company or (ii) the date that is six (6) months after the issue date, to convert all or any portion of
the then outstanding and unpaid principal and interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock. The conversion
price shall be $ 1.50 , subject to adjustments. We have agreed to reserve a sufficient number of Common Stock (initially, 2,000,000 shares)
for issuance upon conversion of the Private Placement Notes in accordance with their terms.
If
an event of default occurs under the Private Placement Notes, the investors have the right to convert all amounts outstanding under the
notes at any time thereafter into shares of Common Stock at the lesser of (i) the then applicable conversion price under the notes or
(ii) the Market Price. “Market Price” shall mean 85 % of the lowest VWAP on any trading day during the ten (10) trading days
prior to the respective conversion date. “VWAP” means, for any security as of any date, the dollar volume-weighted average
price for such security on the principal market during the period beginning at 9:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, and ending at 4:00 p.m.,
Eastern Standard Time, as reported by Quote stream or other similar quotation service provider designated by the investors.
The
Company may prepay the Private Placement Notes at any time with fifteen (15) trading days prior written notice (the “Prepayment
Notice Period”). During the Prepayment Notice Period, the investor shall have the right to convert all or any portion of the Private
Placement Notes pursuant to the terms of the notes, including the amount of the Private Placement Notes to be prepaid. If the Company
exercises its right to prepay the notes, the Company shall make payment to the investor of an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (i)
100% multiplied by the principal amount then outstanding plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to the Prepayment
Notice Date, and (iii) $ 750 to reimburse the investor for administrative fees.
If
the Company delivers a prepayment notice and fails to pay the applicable prepayment amount, the Company shall forever forfeit its right
to prepay any part of the Private Placement Notes.
The
Private Placement Notes have mandatory monthly payments of $ 43,200 . The initial payments are due on November 9, 2024 and November 12,
2024, respectively.
The
Company’s failure to comply with the material terms of the Private Placement Notes will be considered an event of default and the
principal sum of the Private Placement Notes will become immediately due and payable at an amount equal to the principal amount then
outstanding plus accrued interest (including any default interest) through the date of full repayment multiplied by 135%, as well as
all costs, all without demand, presentment or notice, unless expressly waived by the investor.
The
investors may assign their rights to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction
or to any of its affiliates without the consent of the Company.
While
the Private Placement Notes remain outstanding, we shall not, without the investor’s written consent (i) (a) pay, declare or set
apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock
solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment
or distribution with respect to its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved
by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors, (ii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange
for property or other securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any shares of capital stock of
the Company or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares, or repay any indebtedness of the investor (iii)
advance any loans made in the ordinary course of business in excess of $ 100,000 , (iv) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant
portion of our assets outside the ordinary course of business, and (v) enter into any transaction or arrangement structured in accordance
with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, either Section 3(a)(9) or Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act.

August
2024 Private Placement Offering
In
August, 2024, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (each a “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with each
of Quick Capital, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Quick Capital”) and Jefferson Street Capital, LLC, a New Jersey
limited liability company (“Jefferson”) whereby we issued promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $550,000
(the “August Private Placement Offering”).
The
Company agreed to issue to Quick Capital and Jefferson up to 39,300 shares of our Common Stock as a “Commitment Fee”.
As
part of the August Private Placement Offering, the Company issued two promissory notes each in the principal amount of $275,000 with
an original issue discount of $25,000 (the “Private Placement Notes”). The Private Placement Notes have a one-time interest
payment of $27,500. Thereafter, any principal amount of interest which is not paid upon maturity will accrue at a rate of the lesser
of (i) sixteen percent (16%) per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid.
The Private Placement Notes have a maturity date of 10 months after issuance and the proceeds from the notes are for general corporate
purposes. The Company agreed to issue to each of Quick Capital and Jefferson 19,650 shares of Common Stock as additional consideration
for entering into Private Placement Notes.
The
investors have the right, at any time on or following the earlier of (i) the date that any of the shares are registered for resale under
a registration statement of the Company or (ii) the date that is six (6) months after the issue date, to convert all or any portion of
the then outstanding and unpaid principal and interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock. The conversion
price shall be $1.50, subject to adjustments. We have agreed to reserve a sufficient number of Common Stock (initially, 2,000,000 shares)
for issuance upon conversion of the Private Placement Notes in accordance with their terms.
If
an event of default occurs under the Private Placement Notes, the investors have the right to convert all amounts outstanding under the
notes at any time thereafter into shares of Common Stock at the lesser of (i) the then applicable conversion price under the notes or
(ii) the Market Price. “Market Price” shall mean 85% of the lowest VWAP on any trading day during the ten (10) trading days
prior to the respective conversion date. “VWAP” means, for any security as of any date, the dollar volume-weighted average
price for such security on the principal market during the period beginning at 9:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, and ending at 4:00 p.m.,
Eastern Standard Time, as reported by Quote stream or other similar quotation service provider designated by the investors.
The
Company may prepay the Private Placement Notes at any time with fifteen (15) trading days prior written notice (the “Prepayment
Notice Period”). During the Prepayment Notice Period, the investor shall have the right to convert all or any portion of the Private
Placement Notes pursuant to the terms of the notes, including the amount of the Private Placement Notes to be prepaid. If the Company
exercises its right to prepay the notes, the Company shall make payment to the investor of an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (i)
100% multiplied by the principal amount then outstanding plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to the Prepayment
Notice Date, and (iii) $750 to reimburse the investor for administrative fees.
If
the Company delivers a prepayment notice and fails to pay the applicable prepayment amount, the Company shall forever forfeit its right
to prepay any part of the Private Placement Notes.
28
The
Private Placement Notes have mandatory monthly payments of $43,200. The initial payments are due on November 9, 2024 and November 12,
2024, respectively.
The
Company’s failure to comply with the material terms of the Private Placement Notes will be considered an event of default and the
principal sum of the Private Placement Notes will become immediately due and payable at an amount equal to the principal amount then
outstanding plus accrued interest (including any default interest) through the date of full repayment multiplied by 135%, as well as
all costs, all without demand, presentment or notice, unless expressly waived by the investor.
The
investors may assign their rights to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction
or to any of its affiliates without the consent of the Company.
While
the Private Placement Notes remain outstanding, we shall not, without the investor’s written consent (i) (a) pay, declare or set
apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock
solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment
or distribution with respect to its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved
by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors, (ii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange
for property or other securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any shares of capital stock of
the Company or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares, or repay any indebtedness of the investor (iii)
advance any loans made in the ordinary course of business in excess of $100,000, (iv) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant
portion of our assets outside the ordinary course of business, and (v) enter into any transaction or arrangement structured in accordance
with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, either Section 3(a)(9) or Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act.
In
conjunction with the August Private Placement Offering, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with each of Quick Capital
and Jefferson. The Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the re-sale
of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock covered in the August Private Placement Offering within sixty (60) calendar days from
the date of execution.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company made aggregate principal payments on the Private Placement Notes of $257,639 of

4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer,
as of March 31, 2025, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e)
and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer has concluded that based on the material weaknesses discussed below our disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted
under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s
rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
The
matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were:
●
inadequate control over the monitoring of inventory maintained in the Company’s third-party warehouse;
●
ineffective controls over the Company’s financial close and reporting process; and
●
inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, including lack of personnel resources and technical accounting expertise
within the accounting function of the Company.
Management’s
Remediation Initiatives
In
an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we plan to further
initiate, the following measures, subject to the availability of required resources:
●
We plan to create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and hire personnel resources with technical accounting
expertise within the accounting function; and
●
We plan to create an internal control framework that will address financial close and reporting process, among other procedures.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During
the period covered by this Quarterly Report, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
