CAUTIONARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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”) that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management, and
which statements involve substantial risk and uncertainties. All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q other than
statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our future operating results and financial position, our business strategy
and plans, market growth and trends, and objectives for future operations are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements
because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,”
“anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,”
“believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative
of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions.
These
statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and are likely to, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the
forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those set forth in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and our other filings with SEC. These risks and uncertainties include, among other
things:
●
Changing
conditions in global markets including the impact of sanctions and tariffs, quotas and other trade actions and import restrictions
which may adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and cash flows.
●
Changes
in the availability or price of inputs such as raw materials and end-of-life vehicles which could reduce our sales.
●
Significant
decreases in scrap metal prices which may adversely impact our operating results.
●
Imbalances
in supply and demand conditions in the global steel industry which may reduce demand for our products.
●
Impairment
of long-lived assets and equity investments which may adversely affect our operating results.
●
Governmental
agencies’ refusal to grant or renew our licenses and permits, thus restricting our ability to operate.
●
Compliance with existing and future climate change and greenhouse gas emission laws and regulations which may adversely
impact our operating results.
●
Our ineligibility to file short-form registration statements on Form S-3, which may impair our ability to raise capital
efficiently.
●
Our failure to satisfy applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market resulting in a potential delisting
of our common stock.
●
The substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future
financing.
Compliance
with existing and future climate change and greenhouse gas emission laws and regulations which may adversely impact our operating results.
You
are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we disclaim any obligation to publicly
update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise,
after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by applicable
law.

GREENWAVE
TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, INC.
Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September
30, 2025 (Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Greenwave
Technology Solutions, Inc. (“Greenwave” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April
26, 2013 as a technology platform developer under the name MassRoots, Inc. The Company sold its social media assets in October 2021 and
has discontinued all operations related to this business. On September 30, 2021, we closed our acquisition of Empire Services, Inc. (“Empire”),
which operates 13 metal recycling facilities in Virginia, North Carolina, and Ohio. The acquisition was effective October 1, 2021 upon
the effectiveness of the Certificate of Merger in Virginia.
In
December 2022, we began offering hauling services to corporate clients. We haul sand, dirt, asphalt, metal, and other materials in a
fleet of approximately 40 trucks which we own, manage, and maintain.
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Empire Services,
Inc., Liverman Metal Recycling, Inc., Empire Staffing, LLC, Scrap App, Inc., and Greenwave Elite Sports Facility, Inc., our wholly owned
subsidiaries.
Basis
of Presentation
The
interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments and reclassifications and non-recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
and its financial position as of September 30, 2025 have been made. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
Certain
information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted
from these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).
The December 31, 2024 balance sheet is derived from those statements.
NOTE
2 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS
As
of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $ 1,450,367 and a working capital deficit (current liabilities in excess of current assets)
of $( 13,715,081 ). The accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2025 was $( 514,174,816 ). For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had a loss from operations of $ 13,451,242 and cash
used in operating activities of $ 5,860,291 . These conditions raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements.
If
the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders would experience dilution. Additional debt financing,
if available, may involve covenants restricting its operations or its ability to incur additional debt. Any additional debt financing
or additional equity that the Company raises may contain terms that are not favorable to it or its stockholders and require significant
debt service payments, which diverts resources from other activities. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital will be
impacted by market conditions and the price of the Company’s common stock.
Accordingly,
the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates
the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for one year from the date the condensed consolidated
financial statements are issued. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles
of Consolidation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Greenwave Technology Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
6
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.
GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Significant estimates include estimates used in the calculation of stock-based compensation, payroll tax liabilities
with interest and penalties, deemed dividends, assumptions used in right-of-use and lease liability calculations, estimated useful life of long-lived assets and finite life tangible assets, and the valuation allowance related to deferred
tax assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 825-10, “Financial
Instruments” (“ASC 825-10”) requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The estimated fair
value of certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at historical cost basis,
which approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. All other significant financial assets,
financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements
together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk.
The
Company follows ASC 825-10, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.
Cash
For
purposes of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid investments with an original maturity
of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no cash equivalents.
The Company maintains its cash in banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in accounts that at times may be in excess
of the federally insured limit of $ 250,000 per bank. The Company minimizes this risk by placing its cash deposits with major financial
institutions. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the uninsured balances amounted to $ 892,887 and $ 2,363,785 , respectively.
Property
and Equipment, net
We
state property and equipment at cost or, if acquired through a business combination, fair value at the date of acquisition. We calculate
depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, except for our leasehold
improvements, which are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or their related lease term. Upon the sale or retirement
of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from our accounts and the resulting gain or loss is credited or
charged to income. We expense costs for repairs and maintenance when incurred. Our property and equipment is pledged as collateral for
certain non-convertible notes, see Note 8 – Advances and Non-Convertible Notes Payable .
Cost
of Revenue
The
Company’s cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of purchasing metal from its suppliers, direct costs of providing hauling
costs to customers, and cost of other revenue, including sand.
Related
Party Transactions
Parties
are considered related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled
by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members
of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if
one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting
parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions. See
Note 18 – Related Party Transactions .
7
Leases
The
Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified
as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right of use asset and lease liability,
calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental
borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right of use asset is amortized
over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset result in straight-line
rent expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses, if any, are recorded when incurred.
In
calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company elected to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company excluded
short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less from the new guidance as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent
expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. See Note 12 – Leases .
Commitments
and Contingencies
From
time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation
is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
Except as set forth below, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the
aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results. See Note 11 – Commitments and
Contingencies .
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company’s revenues are accounted for under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue From Contracts With Customers” (“ASC 606”)
and generally do not require significant estimates or judgments based on the nature of the Company’s revenue streams. The sales
prices are generally fixed at the point of sale and all consideration from contracts is included in the transaction price. The Company’s
contracts do not include multiple performance obligations or material variable consideration.
In
accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount
that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes
revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following:
(i)
Identify
the contract(s) with a customer;
(ii)
Identify
the performance obligation in the contract;
(iii)
Determine
the transaction price;
(iv)
Allocate
the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
(v)
Recognize
revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The
Company primarily generates revenue by purchasing scrap metal from businesses and retail suppliers, processing it, and selling the ferrous
and non-ferrous metals to customers. The Company also provides hauling services to certain corporate clients. The Company realizes revenue
upon the fulfilment of its performance obligations to customers.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable represent amounts primarily due from customers on products and services rendered. These accounts receivable, which are reduced
by an allowance for credit losses, are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends credit to customers
under contracts containing customary and explicit payment terms, and payment is generally required within 1 to 30 days of shipment or
the services being rendered.
8
The
Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors, including whether sales, the aging
of customer receivable balances, historical collection rates, and economic trends. Management uses this evaluation to estimate the amount
of customer receivables that may not be collected in the future and records a provision for expected credit losses. Accounts are written
off when all efforts to collect have been exhausted. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the accounts receivable balances
amounted to $ 1,868,646 and $ 1,254,390 , respectively.
Inventories
Although
we ship the ferrous and non-ferrous metals we purchase from suppliers multiple times per day, we do maintain inventories. We calculate
the value of the inventories on hand, which consist of processed and unprocessed scrap metal (ferrous and nonferrous), used and salvaged
vehicles, and supplies, based on the net realizable value or the cost of the inventories, whichever is less. We calculate the cost of
the inventory based on the first-in-first-out (FIFO) methodology. We calculate the value of finished products based on their net realizable
value as their cost basis is not readily available. The value of our inventories was $ 2,777,310 and $ 2,889,682 , respectively, as of September
30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. See Note 5 – Inventories .
Advertising
The
Company charges the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising costs were $ 10,818 and $ 1,016 for the three months ended
September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively and $ 64,362 and $ 3,390 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Stock-Based
Compensation
Stock-based
compensation expense is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and is expensed over the requisite service period. For stock-based
awards to employees, non-employees and directors, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date under this model requires judgment, including
estimating volatility, employee stock option exercise behaviors and forfeiture rates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value
of stock-based awards represent the Company’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application
of management’s judgment.
Income
Taxes
The
Company follows ASC Subtopic 740-10, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”) for recording the provision for income taxes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets
and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled.
Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period.
If
available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized,
a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future
changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income
taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes
in different periods.
9
Deemed
Dividends
The
Company records, when necessary, deemed dividends for: (i) warrant price protection, based on the difference between the fair value of
the warrants immediately before and after the repricing (inclusive of any full ratchet provisions); (ii) the exchange of preferred shares
for convertible notes, based on the amount of the face value of the convertible notes in excess of the carrying value of the preferred
shares; (iii) the settlement of warrant provisions, based on the fair value of the common shares issued; and (iv) amortization of discount
on preferred stock resulting from recognition of a beneficial conversion feature.
Environmental
Remediation Liability
The
operations of the Company, like those of other companies in its industry, are subject to various domestic and foreign environmental laws
and regulations. These laws and regulations not only govern current operations and products, but also impose potential liability on the
Company for past operations. Management expects environmental laws and regulations to impose increasingly stringent requirements upon
the Company and the industry in the future. Management believes that the Company conducts its operations in compliance with applicable
environmental laws and regulations and has implemented various programs designed to protect the environment and promote continued compliance.
The
Company continuously assesses its potential liability for remediation-related activities and adjusts its environmental-related accruals
as information becomes available upon which more accurate costs can be reasonably estimated and as additional accounting guidelines are
issued. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had accruals reported on the balance sheet as current liabilities of
$ 0 and $ 0 , respectively.
Actual
costs incurred may vary from the accrued estimates due to the inherent uncertainties involved including, among others, the nature and
magnitude of the wastes involved, the various technologies that can be used for remediation and the determination of acceptable remediation
with respect to a particular site. Additionally, costs for environmental-related activities may not be reasonably estimable and therefore
would not be included in our current liabilities.
Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The test for impairment is required to be performed by management
at least annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the
future undiscounted operating cash flow expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment
to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived
assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Intangible assets are stated
at cost and reviewed annually to examine any impairments, usually assuming an estimated useful life of five 5 to ten years . When retired
or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference
less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. The estimated useful lives of the Intellectual Property, Customer
List, and Licenses assumed in the Empire acquisition is 5 years, 10 years, and 10 years, respectively. See Note 7 – Amortization
of Intangible Assets .
Segment
Reporting
The Company determines its operating segments in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting , as updated
by ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . Operating segments are defined
as components of the business for which discrete financial information is available and that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive
Officer, who is the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in assessing performance and allocating resources.
The Company has identified three operating segments based on its differentiated products and services: Scrap Metal
Recycling, Hauling, and Other (primarily comprised of rental income). The CODM evaluates performance using revenues, gross profit, and
operating cash flows on both an operating segment basis and a consolidated basis. Operating expenses, including selling, general and administrative
expenses, depreciation and amortization, and other operating costs, are managed centrally and are not allocated to individual operating
segments.
The Company has determined that its operating segments exhibit similar economic characteristics and are similar in
nature with respect to products and services, production processes, customer types, and methods of distribution. As a result, the Company
has aggregated its operating segments into a single reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. The Company operates in one geographic
segment, the United States of America.
The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Additional information about the Company’s
operating segments and related disclosures is provided in Note 19 – Segment Reporting .
Net
Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
The
Company computes earnings (loss) per share under ASC subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share. Net loss per common share is computed by dividing
net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share, if presented,
would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock
using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods, as applicable.
10
The
computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 excludes potentially
dilutive securities when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, or if their exercise prices were greater than the average market price
of the common stock during the period.
Potentially
dilutive securities excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share are as follows:

On
August 20, 2025, the Company completed a 1-for-110
reverse split. Pursuant to GAAP, the Company retrospectively recasted and restated the weighted-average shares included within its
consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and year ended December 31,
2024. The basic and diluted weighted-average common shares are retroactively converted to shares of the Company’s common stock
to conform to the recasted consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Income
Taxes
In
December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
(“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced disclosures surrounding income taxes, particularly related to rate reconciliation
and income taxes paid information. In particular, on an annual basis, companies will be required to disclose specific categories in the
rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Companies will also
be required to disclose, on an annual basis, the amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and
also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions above a quantitative threshold. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods
beginning January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted for all prior periods presented. The Company
will adopt ASU 2023-09 for the annual period ending December 31, 2025 and is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its
disclosures.
Segment
Reporting
In
November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable
Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires enhanced disclosures surrounding reportable segments, particularly
(i) significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included
in the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit and loss and (ii) other segment items that reconcile segment revenue and significant
expenses to the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit and loss, both on an annual and interim basis. Companies are also required
to provide all annual disclosures currently required under Topic 280 in interim periods, in addition to disclosing the title and position
of the CODM and how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit and loss in assessing segment performance and allocating
resources. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
11
Disaggregation
of Income Statement Expenses
In
November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense
Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires specified information about certain

NOTE
11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From
time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation
is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
Except as set forth below, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the
aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
On
October 25, 2024, Arena Special Opportunities Fund, LP and other related entities (“Arena”) filed a lawsuit in New York State
Court (the “Action”). The complaint for the lawsuit alleges, among other things, a purported breach of contract based on
an alleged equity conditions failure. The Company believes that the Action lacks merit. In the event this Action is not summarily dismissed,
the Company intends to vigorously defend against it.
As
previously reported on September 13, 2024, the Company received written notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Listing Qualification
Department (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the $ 1.00 minimum bid price requirement set
forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”),
as the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock had been below $ 1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. The Notice
indicated that the Company has 180 calendar days, or until March 12, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On
March 13, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that although the Company has not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement,
the Company is eligible to receive an additional 180 calendar day period or until September 8, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum
Bid Price Requirement, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(a)(3)(A).
19
Nasdaq’s
determination to grant the Company an additional 180 calendar day period was based on the Company’s satisfaction of the continued
listing requirements for the market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq
Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Additionally, the Company has provided Nasdaq with written notice
of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, potentially by implementing a reverse stock split, if necessary.

with the SEC. The Company previously submitted a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with respect
to the delinquent Q1 Form 10-Q, and Nasdaq granted the Company an exception until August 22, 2025, to evidence compliance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).
On
August 22, 2025, the Company received an additional delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq due to the Company’s failure
to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025 (the “Q2 Form 10-Q”). The
Staff informed the Company that is has until September 8, 2025 to submit an updated plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5550(a)(2). On September 5, 2025, the Company submitted its revised plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance, and Nasdaq accepted its plan to
evidence compliance by 180 calendar days from the due date of the Q1 Form 10-Q, or until November 17, 2025.
On November 18, 2025, the Company received
an additional delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq due to the Company’s failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”). The letter further stated that upon further review,
the Company did not meet the terms of the previous exception granted to the Company and that trading of the Company’s common stock
would be suspended at the opening of business on November 28, 2025 and the Company’s securities would be subsequently delisted
from Nasdaq unless the Company requested a hearing to appeal Nasdaq’s determination by November 25, 2025. On November 18, 2025,
the Company filed the Q1 Form 10-Q with the SEC. On November 21, 2025, the Company formally requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings
Panel (the “Panel”) to appeal the November 18, 2025 determination (the “Hearing”). The Hearing was held on January
13, 2026. On January 27, 2026, the Panel notified the Company that it granted the Company’s request for continued listing subject
to the Company filing the Q2 Form 10-Q on or before February 6, 2026 and filing the Q3 Form 10-Q on or before March 6, 2026. On February

NOTE
14 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
On
May 16, 2024 as a result of the issuance of additional warrants under the security purchase agreements, the Company no longer had sufficient
authorized shares in the event that all potentially dilutive instruments were exercised. As a result, the Company evaluated the warrants
issued under ASC 480 and determined that certain warrants no longer qualified as equity instruments and qualify for derivative liability
treatment. The Company elected to use a first-in, first-out sequencing method to determine which dilutive instruments met the definition
of a derivative liability.
The
Company estimated the fair value of the initial derivative liability using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model based on the following assumptions:
(1) dividend yield of 0 %, (2) expected volatility of 141.83 %, (3) risk-free interest rate of 4.46 %, and (4) expected life of 5 years.
The
Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liability upon the settlement date using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model based on
the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0 %, (2) expected volatility of 159.02 %, (3) risk-free interest rate of 4.52 %, and (4)
expected life of 5 years.
The
Company adopted the provisions of ASC 825-10. ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset
or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair
value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal
or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the
asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of non-performance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy
that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
●
Level
1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
●
Level
2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets
with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs
are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the
assets or liabilities.
●
Level
3 – Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
All
items required to be recorded or measured on a recurring basis are based upon Level 3 inputs.
To
the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair
value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value
hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed
and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The
Company recognizes its derivative liabilities as Level 3 and values its derivatives using the methods discussed below. While the Company
believes that its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, it recognizes that the use of different
methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair
value at the reporting date. The primary assumptions that would significantly affect the fair values using the methods discussed are
that of volatility and market price of the underlying common stock of the Company.

As
of September 30, 2025, the Company did not have any derivative instruments that were designated as hedges.
Items
recorded or measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying consolidated financial statements consisted of the following

Fluctuations
in the Company’s stock price are a primary driver for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting period. As
the stock price increases/(decreases) for each of the related derivative instruments, the value to the holder of the instrument generally
increases/(decreases), therefore increasing/(decreasing) the liability on the Company’s balance sheet. Decreases in the conversion
price of the Company’s convertible notes are another driver for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting
period. As the conversion price decreases for each of the related derivative instruments, the value to the holder of the instrument (especially
those with full ratchet price protection) generally increases, therefore increasing the liability on the Company’s balance sheet.
Additionally, stock price volatility is one of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each of the
Company’s derivative instruments. The simulated fair value of these liabilities is sensitive to changes in the Company’s
expected volatility. Increases in expected volatility would generally result in higher fair value measurements. A 10% change in pricing
inputs and changes in volatilities and correlation factors would not result in a material change in our Level 3 fair value.

17 – STOCK OPTIONS
Our
stockholders approved our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan in June 2014 (the “2014 Plan”), our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan in December
2015 (the “2015 Plan”), our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan in October 2016 (“2016 Plan”), our 2017 Equity Incentive
Plan in December 2016 (“2017 Plan”), our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan in June 2018 (the “2018 Plan”), our 2021
Equity Incentive Plan in September 2021 (“2021 Plan”), our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan in November 2022, our 2023 Equity Incentive
Plan in October 2023 (“2023 Plan”), and our 2024 Equity Incentive Plan in May 2024 (“2024 Plan”, and together
with the 2014 Plan, 2015 Plan, 2016 Plan, 2017 Plan, 2018 Plan, 2021 Plan, 2022 Plan, and 2023 Plan, the “Plans”). The Plans
are identical, except for the number of shares reserved for issuance under each. In July 2024, shareholders amended our 2024 Plan to
increase the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder by 27,091 to a total of 27,273 shares. As of September 30, 2025, the Company
had granted an aggregate of 13,969 securities under the Plans since inception, with 13,387 shares available for future issuances.
The
Plans provide for the grant of incentive stock options to our employees and our subsidiaries’ employees, and for the grant of stock
options, stock bonus awards, restricted stock awards, performance stock awards and other forms of stock compensation to our employees,
including officers, consultants and directors. The Prior Plans also provide that the grant of performance stock awards may be paid out
in cash as determined by the committee administering the Prior Plans.
Option
valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. The fair value of stock-based payment awards was estimated using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model with a volatility figure derived from historical data. The Company accounts for the expected life
of options based on the contractual life of the options.
There
were no options issued during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2025.

NOTE
19 – SEGMENT REPORTING
Greenwave
is organized into three operating segments based on our differentiated products – Scrap Metal Recycling, Hauling, and Other (primarily
comprised of rental income).
We
have one reportable geographic segment: the United States of America as all of our scrap metal is sourced domestically.
Our
Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), Danny Meeks, Chairman and CEO, evaluates performance on both an operating segment
basis and a consolidated basis, primarily using revenues, gross profit, and operating cash flows. These measures are used by the CODM,
management, investors, lenders, and other external users of our financial statements to assess our operating performance and to compare
results to other companies in the metal recycling industry. Our CODM utilizes segment profit and loss in assessing segment performance
and in allocating resources among our operations.
Operating
expenses, including selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, and other operating costs, are managed
centrally and are not allocated to individual operating segments. These expenses are not included in the information regularly provided
to or reviewed by the CODM when evaluating segment performance or making resource allocation decisions. As such, consistent with the
requirements of ASU 2023-07, we present operating expenses only in the “Total” column and do not disaggregate these expenses
by segment.
The
following tables provide our results by segment:

20 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Nasdaq
Filing Rule Deficiencies
On
May 23, 2025, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC regarding the Company’s
failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025 (the “Q1 Form 10-Q”)
with the SEC. The Company previously submitted a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with respect to the delinquent Q1 Form 10-Q, and
Nasdaq granted the Company an exception until August 22, 2025, to evidence compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).
On
August 22, 2025, the Company received an additional delinquency notification letter (the “Notice”) from Nasdaq due to the
Company’s failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025 (the “Q2 Form
10-Q”). The Staff informed the Company that is has until September 8, 2025 to submit an updated plan to regain compliance with
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). On September 5, 2025, the Company submitted its revised plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance, and Nasdaq
accepted its plan to evidence compliance by 180 calendar days from the due date of the Q1 Form 10-Q, or until November 17, 2025. On November
18, 2025, the Company received an additional delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq due to the Company’s failure to timely
file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”). The letter further
stated that upon further review, the Company did not meet the terms of the previous exception granted to the Company and that trading
of the Company’s common stock would be suspended at the opening of business on November 28, 2025 and the Company’s securities
would be subsequently delisted from Nasdaq unless the Company requested a hearing to appeal Nasdaq’s determination by November
25, 2025. On November 18, 2025, the Company filed the Q1 Form 10-Q with the SEC. On November 21, 2025, the Company formally requested
a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) to appeal the November 18, 2025 determination (the “Hearing”).
The Hearing was held on January 13, 2026. On January 27, 2026, the Panel notified the Company that it granted the Company’s request

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You
should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes
contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Please also refer to the note about forward-looking information for information
on such statements contained in this Quarterly Report immediately preceding Part I, Item 1.
Overview
We
were formed on April 26, 2013 as a technology platform developer under the name MassRoots, Inc. In October 2021, we changed our corporate
name from “MassRoots, Inc.” to “Greenwave Technology Solutions, Inc.” We sold all of our social media assets
on October 28, 2021 for cash consideration equal to $10,000 and have discontinued all operations related to our social media business.
On September 30, 2021, we closed our acquisition of Empire Services, Inc. (“Empire”), which operates 13 metal recycling facilities
in Virginia, North Carolina, and Ohio. The acquisition was effective October 1, 2021 upon the effectiveness of the Certificate of Merger
in Virginia.
Upon
the acquisition of Empire, we transitioned into the scrap metal industry which involves collecting, classifying and processing appliances,
construction material, end-of-life vehicles, boats, and industrial machinery. We process these items by crushing, shearing, shredding,
separating, and sorting, into smaller pieces and categorize these recycled ferrous, nonferrous, and mixed metal pieces based on density
and metal prior to sale. In cases of scrap cars, we remove the catalytic converters, aluminum wheels, and batteries for separate processing
and sale prior to shredding the vehicle. We have designed our systems to maximize the value of metals produced from this process.
We
operate an automotive shredder at our Kelford, North Carolina location and a second automotive shredder at our Carrollton, Virginia location
is expected to come online in the second quarter of 2024. Our shredders are designed to produce a denser product and, in concert with
advanced separation equipment, more refined recycled ferrous metals, which are more valuable as they require less processing to produce
recycled steel products. In totality, this process reduces large metal objects like auto bodies into baseball-sized pieces of shredded
recycled metal.
The
shredded pieces are then placed on a conveyor belt under magnetized drums to separate the ferrous metal from the mixed nonferrous metal
and residue, producing consistent and high-quality ferrous scrap metal. The nonferrous metals and other materials then go through a number
of additional mechanical systems which separate the nonferrous metal from any residue. The remaining nonferrous metal is further processed
to sort the metal by type, grade, and quality prior to being sold as products, such as zorba (mainly aluminum), zurik (mainly stainless
steel), and shredded insulated wire (mainly copper and aluminum).
One
of our main corporate priorities is to open a facility with rail or deep-water port access to enable us to efficiently transport our
products to domestic steel mills and overseas foundries. Because this would greatly expand the number of potential buyers of our processed
scrap products, we believe opening a facility with port or rail access could result in an increase in both the revenue and profitability
of our existing operations.
Empire
is headquartered in Chesapeake, Virginia and employs 180 people as of March 6, 2025.
Products
and Services
Our
main product is selling ferrous metal, which is used in the recycling and production of finished steel. It is categorized into heavy
melting steel, plate and structural, and shredded scrap, with various grades of each of those categorizations based on the content, size
and consistency of the metal. All of these attributes affect the metal’s value.
We
also process nonferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, stainless steel, nickel, brass, titanium, lead, alloys and mixed metal products.
Additionally, we sell the catalytic converters recovered from end-of-life vehicles to processors which extract the nonferrous precious
metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium.
We
provide metal recycling services to a wide range of suppliers, including large corporations, industrial manufacturers, retail customers,
and government organizations.
Pricing
and Customers
Prices
for our ferrous and nonferrous products are based on prevailing market rates and are subject to market cycles, worldwide steel demand,
government regulations and policy, and supply of products that can be processed into recycled steel. Our main buyers adjust the prices
they pay for scrap metal products based on market rates usually on a monthly or bi-weekly basis. We are usually paid for the scrap metal
we deliver to customers within 14 days of delivery.
Based
on any price changes from our customers or our other buyers, we in turn adjust the price for unprocessed scrap we pay suppliers in order
to manage the impact on our operating income and cash flows.
The
spread we are able to realize between the sales prices and the cost of purchasing scrap metal is determined by a number of factors, including
transportation and processing costs. Historically, we have experienced sustained periods of stable or rising metal selling prices, which
allow us to manage or increase our operating income. When selling prices decline, we adjust the prices we pay customers to minimize the
impact to our operating income.
33
Sources
of Unprocessed Metal
Our
main sources of unprocessed metal we purchase are end-of-life vehicles, old equipment, appliances and other consumer goods, and scrap
metal from construction or manufacturing operations. We acquire this unprocessed metal from a wide base of suppliers including large
corporations, industrial manufacturers, retail customers, and government organizations who unload their metal at our facilities or we
pick it up and transport it from the supplier’s location. Currently, our operations and main suppliers are located in the Hampton
Roads and northeastern North Carolina markets. As of the second quarter of 2023, the Company expanded our operations by opening a metal
recycling facility in Cleveland, Ohio.
Our
supply of scrap metal is influenced by the overall health of economic activity in the United States, changes in prices for recycled metal,
and, to a lesser extent, seasonal factors such as severe weather conditions, which may prohibit or inhibit scrap metal collection.
Competition
We
compete with several large, well-financed recyclers of scrap metal, steel mills which own their own scrap metal processing operations,
and with smaller metal recycling companies. Demand for metal products is sensitive to global economic conditions, the relative value
of the U.S. dollar, and availability of material alternatives, including recycled metal substitutes. Prices for recycled metal are also
influenced by tariffs, quotas, and other import restrictions, and by licensing and government requirements.
We
aim to create a competitive advantage through our ability to process significant volumes of metal products and utilize the technology
solutions, our use of processing and separation equipment, the number and location of our facilities, and the operating synergies we
have been able to develop based on our experience.

Revenues
For
the three months ended September 30, 2025, we generated $12,676,052 in revenues, as compared to $8,505,187 during the same period in
2024, an increase of $3,410,765. This increase was primarily due to increases in metal and hauling revenue.
Our
cost of revenues increased to $9,178,202 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $4,959,908 during the same period in 2024,
an increase of $4,218,294, primarily due to an increase in hauling costs.
Our

Capital
Resources
As
of September 30, 2025, we had cash on hand of $1,450,367. We currently have no external sources of liquidity such as arrangements with
credit institutions that will have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or immediate
access to capital.
37
Required
Capital over the Next Fiscal Year
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $1,450,367 and a
working capital deficit (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $(13,715,081). The accumulated deficit as of September 30,
2025 was $(514,174,816). For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had a loss from operations of $13,451,242 and
cash used in operating activities of $5,860,291. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
If
the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders would experience dilution. Additional debt financing,
if available, may involve covenants restricting its operations or its ability to incur additional debt. Any additional debt financing
or additional equity that the Company raises may contain terms that are not favorable to it or its stockholders and require significant
debt service payments, which diverts resources from other activities. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital will be
impacted by market conditions and the price of the Company’s common stock. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Contractual
Obligations
Our
contractual obligations are included in our notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item I of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. To the extent that funds generated from our operations, together with our existing capital resources,
are insufficient to meet future requirements, we will be required to obtain additional funds through equity or debt financings. No assurance
can be given that any additional financing will be made available to us or will be available on acceptable terms should such a need arise.

Nasdaq
Filing Rule Deficiencies
On
May 23, 2025, the Company received a staff determination letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC
(Nasdaq) notifying the Company that it had not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (the “Q1
10-Q”) and therefore was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The Company was advised that it had 60 calendar
days to submit a plan to regain compliance. If accepted, Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the original filing
due date — which would correspond to a compliance deadline of November 17, 2025. The Company intends to submit such plan but there
is no assurance the plan will be accepted or that the Company will achieve compliance within the timeframe.
38
On
August 22, 2025, the Company received an additional delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq because the Company had failed to file
its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (“Q2 10-Q”), together with the previously delayed Q1
10-Q. The notice states that the Company must submit an updated plan to Nasdaq by September 8, 2025 to regain compliance with Listing
Rule 5250(c)(1). On September 5, 2025, the Company submitted its revised plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance, and Nasdaq accepted its
plan to evidence compliance by 180 calendar days from the due date of the Q1 Form 10-Q, or until November 17, 2025.
On
November 18, 2025, the Company received an additional delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq due to the Company’s failure
to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 (the “Q3 10-Q”). The letter
further stated that upon further review, the Company did not meet the terms of the previous exception granted to the Company and that
trading of the Company’s common stock would be suspended at the opening of business on November 28, 2025 and the Company’s
securities would be subsequently delisted from Nasdaq unless the Company requested a hearing to appeal Nasdaq’s determination by
November 25, 2025. On November 18, 2025, the Company filed the Q1 10-Q with the SEC. On November 21, 2025, the Company formally requested
a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) to appeal the November 18, 2025 determination (the “Hearing”).
The Hearing was held on January 13, 2026. On January 27, 2026, the Panel notified the Company that it granted the Company’s request
for continued listing subject to the Company filing the Q2 Form 10-Q on or before February 6, 2026 and filing the Q3 Form 10-Q on or
before March 6, 2026. On February 5, 2026, the Company filed the Q2 10-Q with the SEC.
Resolution
of Minimum Bid Price Deficiency
As
previously reported by the Company, on September 13, 2024, the Company received written notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq
Listing Qualification Department (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid
price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Minimum
Bid Price Requirement”), as the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive
business days. The Notice indicated that the Company had 180 calendar days, or until March 12, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum
Bid Price Requirement. On March 13, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that although the Company has not regained compliance with the
Minimum Bid Price Requirement, the Company was eligible to receive an additional 180 calendar day period or until September 8, 2025, to
regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(a)(3)(A). On August 13, 2025, the Company’s
shareholders approved at its 2025 annual meeting a proposal granting the Board discretionary authority to effect one or more consolidations
of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, pursuant to which the shares of common stock would be combined and
reclassified into one share of common stock at a ratio within the range from 1-for-2 up to 1-for-150. On August 20, 2025, the Company
filed a Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of its issued common stock, par value $0.001 per share, in the ratio of
1-for-110 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), which was effective at 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on August 22, 2025. The common stock
began trading on a split-adjusted basis at the market open on Monday, August 25, 2025. On September 9, 2025, the Company received formal
notice from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq that the Company had regained compliance with the minimum bid
price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). As a result, listing matter was closed.

4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management,
under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without
limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it
files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and
principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our
Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly
Report, (i) the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that material information relating
to the Company is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), and (ii) the Company’s controls and procedures have not
been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its
principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Management has implemented remediation steps to address the material weaknesses and
to improve our internal controls. We are now in the process of enhancing the design of certain internal control procedures and
implementing new internal controls over, among other items, improving and ensuring continual uninterrupted internal access to
financial and accounting records of the Company necessary to timely file its required reports with the SEC. These controls are
planned to be tested for design and operating effectiveness in future periods.
While the Company has implemented remediation steps, the material weaknesses cannot be considered fully remediated
until the improved controls have been in place and operate for a sufficient period of time. However, our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses in our internal
controls over financial reporting, the financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other
than as discussed above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) of
the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
