+Added: Typically, sales of our product is higher during the summer months in the United States of America due to weather patterns that are generally correlated to a higher prevalence of wildfires.
+Added: We believe, however, that due to the effect of the wildfires in Los Angeles, California during January 2025, and the more common wildfire season during the summer months that product orders will continue at the current rate throughout calendar year 2025.

+Added: In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, we, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
+Added: If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in our financial statements.
+Added: If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is likely, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
+Added: Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
+Added: Critical Accounting Estimates
+Added: Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.
+Added: GAAP”), which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
+Added: We believe our most critical accounting estimates relate to the following:
Incremental borrowing rate for Right of Use Assets
−Removed: Share based compensation
−Removed: Revenue Recognition
−Removed: Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contracts with our customers are satisfied.
−Removed: Our performance obligation generally of products used for lumber products for fire prevention.
−Removed: Revenue is recognized at a point in time, that is which the risks and rewards of ownership of the products transfer from the Company to the customer.
−Removed: All of our performance obligations under the terms of contracts with our customers have an original duration of one year or less.
+Added: Fair Value of Convertible Notes
+Added: Fair Value of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
+Added: While our estimates and assumptions are based on our knowledge of current events and on actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions.
+Added: For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Incremental borrowing rate for Right of Use Assets
1 unchanged sentence
The assessment of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate involves judgment regarding the cost of borrowing funds on a collateralized basis over a similar term and in a similar economic environment.
−Removed: Share-Based Compensation
−Removed: The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to nonemployees are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable.
−Removed: Equity grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period.
−Removed: If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.
+Added: Fair Value of Convertible Notes
+Added: The Company determined that the conversion feature, embedded in convertible notes, met the definition of a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No.
+Added: 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Stock and therefore bifurcated the embedded conversion option once the note become convertible and accounted for it as a derivative liability.
+Added: The fair value of the conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount and “day 1” derivative loss for the excess amount of debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the term of the note.
+Added: For the conversion feature classified as a liability, the Company uses a Binomial Lattice valuation model to value the derivative instrument at inception and on subsequent valuation dates.
+Added: The use of this valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions.
+Added: Any change to these inputs could produce significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
+Added: The underlying assumptions of Binomial Lattice model are as follows:
+Added: The short-term interest rates, including risk-free rate, are known and remain constant over time.
+Added: The absence of any arbitrage opportunities is assumed.
+Added: The stock price follows a continuous-time random walk, with the rate of variance proportional to the square of the stock price.
+Added: The distribution of possible stock prices at the end of any given finite interval is assumed to be lognormal.
+Added: The variance of the rate of return on the stock is constant.
+Added: No commissions or transaction costs are incurred when buying or selling the stock or option.
+Added: The option's early exercise value is evaluated at each node of the lattice.
+Added: If applicable, the tax rate remains consistent for all transactions and market participants.
+Added: Fair Value of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
+Added: The Company has issued warrants to investors in our debt offerings.
+Added: We evaluate all warrants issued to determine the appropriate classification under ASC 480 and ASC 815.
+Added: In addition to determining classification, we evaluate these instruments to determine if such instruments meet the definition of a derivative.
+Added: For warrants that are determined to be equity-classified, we estimate the fair value at issuance and record the amounts to additional paid in capital (potentially on a relative fair value basis if issued in a basket transaction with other financial instruments).
+Added: Warrants that are equity-classified are not subsequently remeasured unless modified or required to be reclassified as liabilities.
+Added: The classification of all outstanding warrants, including whether such instruments should be recorded as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.
+Added: The warrants are valued using a Black Scholes valuation model.
+Added: The use of this valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions.
+Added: Any change to these inputs could produce significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
+Added: Off-balance sheet arrangements
+Added: We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
−Removed: As a “smaller reporting company,” this item is not required.
+Added: As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
