REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet of Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of October 31,
2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years
then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Going Concern Matter
The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company
has suffered recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our
audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB")
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with
the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we
engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures
to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

KAIVAL BRANDS INNOVATIONS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business
Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc. (the “Company,”
the “Registrant,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), formerly known as Quick Start Holdings, Inc.,
was incorporated on September 4, 2018, in the State of Delaware.
Description of Business
On March 9, 2020, the Company entered into an exclusive
distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) of certain electronic nicotine delivery systems (“ENDS”)
and related components (the “Products”) with Bidi Vapor, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Bidi”). The
Distribution Agreement was amended and restated on May 21, 2020, again on April 20, 2021, again on June 10, 2022 ,
and again on November 17, 2022 (collectively the “A&R Distribution Agreement”), in order to clarify some of the
provisions and memorialize the Company’s current business relationship with Bidi. Pursuant to the A&R Distribution Agreement,
Bidi granted the Company an exclusive worldwide right to distribute the Products for sale and resale to non-retail level customers. The
Products consist primarily of the “Bidi Stick.”
On August 31, 2020, the Company formed Kaival Labs,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein referred to as “Kaival Labs”), as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for the purpose
of developing Company-branded and white-label products and services. The Company has not yet launched any Kaival-branded product, nor
has it begun to provide white label wholesale solutions for other product manufacturers. On March 11, 2022, the Company formed Kaival
Brands International, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (herein referred to as “KBI”), as a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company, for the purpose of entering into an international licensing agreement with Philip Morris Products S.A. (“PMPSA”),
a wholly owned affiliate of Philip Morris International Inc. (“PMI”).
On June 13, 2022, the Company’s wholly owned
subsidiary, KBI, entered into the PMI License Agreement with PMPSA, a wholly owned affiliate of PMI, for the development and distribution
of ENDS products in certain markets outside of the United States, subject to market (or regulatory) assessment. The PMI License Agreement
grants to PMPSA a license of certain intellectual property rights relating to Bidi’s ENDS device, known as the BIDI® Stick in
the United States, as well as potentially newly developed devices, to permit PMPSA to manufacture, promote, sell, and distribute such
ENDS device and newly developed devices, in international markets, outside of the United States.
Product Offerings
Pursuant to the A&R Distribution Agreement, the
Company sells and resells electronic nicotine delivery systems, which it may refer to herein as “ENDS Products”, or “e-cigarettes”,
to non-retail level customers. The sole Product the Company resells is the “BIDI ® Stick,” a disposable,
tamper-resistant ENDS product that comes in a variety of flavor options for adult cigarette smokers. The Company does not manufacture
any of the Products it resells. The BIDI ® Stick is manufactured by Bidi, who uses a contract manufacturer in China. Pursuant
to the terms of the A&R Distribution Agreement, Bidi provides the Company with all branding, logos, and marketing materials to be
utilized by the Company in connection with its marketing and promotion of the Products. Currently, the Company no longer
sells BIDI ® Sticks.
International Trade Commission (ITC) claims against the Company
On June 11, 2024, the RJ Reynolds Entities filed the
ITC Complaint. The ITC Complaint requests the ITC grant: (a) temporary and permanent limited exclusion orders pursuant to Section 337(e)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, which would prohibit the importation of the Bidi Stick in the United States; and (b) issue temporary
and permanent cease and desist orders pursuant to 337(f) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, which would prohibit the sale and distribution
of the Bidi Stick in the United States. No damages are recoverable in the proceedings before the ITC. If the Company or Bidi is prohibited
from importing the Bidi Stick, then the Company’s business, operations, financial results, and reputation would be significantly
adversely impacted.
F- 7
As a result of the ITC Complaint and other factors, the Company does not
expect any revenue from the sale of Bidi Sticks in the foreseeable future. The Company’s primary source of revenue is from KBI
from royalties from PMI under the PMI License Agreement.
Impact of the FDA PMTA Decision and Subsequent
Court Actions
In September 2021, in connection with the Bidi’s
Premarket Tobacco Product Application (“PMTA”) process, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA”)
effectively “banned” flavored ENDS by denying nearly all then-pending PMTAs for such products. Following the issuance of Marketing
Denial Orders (“MDO”), manufacturers are required to stop selling non-tobacco flavored ENDS products.
Bidi, along with nearly every other company in the
ENDS industry, received a MDO for its non-tobacco flavored ENDS products. With respect to Bidi, the MDO covered all non-tobacco flavored
BIDI® Sticks, including its Arctic (menthol) BIDI® Stick. As a result, beginning in September 2021, Bidi pursued multiple avenues
to challenge the MDO. First, on September 21, 2021, separate from the judicial appeal of the MDO in its entirety, Bidi filed a 21 C.F.R.
§ 10.75 internal FDA supervisory review request specifically of the decision to include the Arctic (menthol) BIDI® Stick in the
MDO. In May 2022, the FDA issued a determination that it views the Arctic BIDI® Stick as a non-tobacco flavored ENDS product, and
not strictly a menthol flavored product.
On September 29, 2021, Bidi petitioned the U.S. Court
of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit (the “11 th Circuit”) to review the FDA’s denial of the comprehensive
PMTAs for its non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Stick ENDS, arguing that it was arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedure
Act (“APA”), as well as ultra vires, for the FDA not to conduct any scientific review of Bidi’s comprehensive applications,
as required by the Tobacco Control Act (“TCA”), to determine whether the BIDI® Sticks are “appropriate for the protection
of the public health”. Bidi further argued that the FDA violated due process and the APA by failing to provide fair notice of the
FDA’s new requirement for ENDS companies to conduct long-term comparative smoking cessation studies for their flavored products,
and that the FDA should have gone through the notice and comment rulemaking process for this requirement.
On October 14, 2021, Bidi requested that the FDA re-review the MDO and reconsider
its position that Bidi did not include certain scientific data in its applications sufficient to allow the PMTAs to proceed to scientific
review. In light of this request, on October 22, 2021, pursuant to 21 C.F.R. § 10.35(a), the FDA issued an administrative stay of
Bidi’s MDO pending its re-review, permitting the Company to continue sales. Subsequently, the FDA decided not to rescind the MDO
and lifted its administrative stay on December 17, 2021. Following the lifting of the FDA’s administrative stay, Bidi filed a renewed
motion to stay the MDO with the 11 th Circuit. On February 1, 2022, the appellate court granted Bidi’s motion to stay
(i.e., put on hold) the MDO, again allowing the Company to continue sales pending the litigation on the merits.
On August 23, 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for
the Eleventh Circuit set aside the MDO issued to the non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Sticks and remanded Bidi’s back to the FDA for
further review. Specifically, the Court held that the MDO was “arbitrary and capricious” in violation of the Administrative
Procedure Act (“APA”) because FDA failed to consider the relevant evidence before it, specifically Bidi’s aggressive
and comprehensive marketing and sales-access-restrictions plans designed to prevent youth appeal and access.
The FDA did not appeal to the 11 th Circuit’s
decision. The FDA had until October 7, 2022 (45 days from the August 23, 2022, decision) to either request a panel rehearing or a rehearing
“en banc” (a review by the entire 11 th Circuit, not just the 3-judge panel that issued the decision), and until
November 21, 2022 (90 days after the decision) to seek review of the decision by the U.S. Supreme Court. No request for a rehearing was
filed, and no petition for a writ of certiorari was made to the Supreme Court. On July 29, 2024, Bidi received a Recission of Marketing
Denial letter from FDA formally rescinding the MDO for the non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Stick PMTAs and putting those applications
back into the review process. On November 4, 2025, FDA issued a MDO for the PMTA for the non-tobacco flavored Bidi Sticks. FDA’s
basis for this MDO is that Bidi Vapor’s PMTAs for non-tobacco flavored BIDI Stick did not include sufficient, robust evidence showing
that marketing the flavored products would be “appropriate for the protection of the public health” (APPH)—i.e., that
adult-smoker benefits (complete switching or significant cigarette reduction) would be large enough to outweigh the well-established youth-appeal
and youth-initiation risks of flavored ENDS. In particular, FDA said the submission lacked the kind of comparative evidence (e.g., RCT/longitudinal
cohort comparing flavored vs tobacco-flavored ENDS) needed to demonstrate an added adult benefit. FDA therefore concluded the applications
were insufficient and stopped further scientific review of other sections. Accordingly, at this time, the non-tobacco flavored BIDI®
Stick is considered an adulterated tobacco product, the continued marketing and distribution of which is prohibited.
F- 8
Separately, on or about May 13, 2022, the FDA placed
the tobacco-flavored Classic BIDI® Stick into the final Phase III scientific review. In March 2023, FDA issued a deficiency letter
regarding the Classic BIDI® Stick PMTA, to which Bidi submitted in June 2023. Subsequently, on January 22, 2024, FDA issued a MDO
for the Classic BIDI® Stick. On January 26, 2024, Bidi filed a petition for review of the MDO with the 11 th Circuit Court
of Appeals, followed by a motion to stay the MDO. Bidi is arguing, among other things, that the MDO was arbitrary and capricious in violation
of the Administrative Procedure Act. On February 2, 2024, Bidi filed a Time Sensitive Motion for a Stay Pending Review, which the court
denied on February 18, 2024. Briefing on the merits proceeded, with Bidi filing the opening merits brief on April 15, 2024. FDA filed
its response brief on June 7, 2024, and Bidi filed its reply brief on July 29, 2024. Oral arguments were held before a three-judge panel
on the 11 th Circuit on April 2, 2025. The Court issued a decision on April 24, 2025, upholding FDA’s denial order. Accordingly,
at this time, the Classic BIDI® Stick is considered an adulterated tobacco product, the continued marketing and distribution of which
is prohibited.
Risks and Uncertainties
The FDA has indicated that it is prioritizing enforcement
of unauthorized ENDS against companies (1) that never submitted PMTAs, (2) whose PMTAs have been refused acceptance or filing by the FDA,
(3) whose PMTAs remain subject to MDOs, and (4) that are continuing to market unauthorized synthetic nicotine products after the July
13, 2022, cutoff. Due to the MDOs Bidi is no longer marketing the Classic BIDI® Stick or the non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Sticks.
Merger and Share Exchange Agreement
On September 23, 2024, the Company agreed with Delta
Corp Holdings Limited, a company incorporated in England and Wales (“Delta”) to effect a business combination between the
Company and Delta by entering into a Merger and Share Exchange Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company, Delta,
Delta Corp Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Pubco”), KAVL Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and
a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub”), and the shareholders of Delta.
On September 11, 2025, the Company and Delta entered
into a Business Combination Termination and Release Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) pursuant to Section 10.1(a) of
the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement’) among the Company, Delta, Pubco, KAVL Merger Sub Inc. and Delta Corp Cayman
Limited.
Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Company
and Delta mutually terminated the Merger Agreement and all agreements between the parties that are ancillary thereto and Delta waived
any and all claims against the other party that in any way directly and/or indirectly arise out of, are based upon, or are in connection
with the Merger Agreement and any agreements ancillary thereto.
Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Significant
Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the
financial statements of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kaival Labs and KBI. Intercompany transactions are eliminated.
Basis of Presentation

principles, generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and have been consistently applied in the preparation
of the consolidated financial statements.
F- 9
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading
have been included. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments
with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of October
31, 2025, and October 31, 2024.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
insures deposits according to the ownership category in which the funds are insured and how the accounts are titled. The standard deposit
insurance coverage limit is $ 250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. The Company had uninsured cash of $ 284,406
and $ 3,652,300 as of October 31, 2025, and October 31, 2024, respectively.
Advertising and Promotion
All advertising, promotion and marketing expenses,
including commissions, are expensed when incurred.
Accounts Receivable and Reserve for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable pertains to contracts with customers
who are granted credit by the Company in the ordinary course of business and are recorded at the invoiced amount. Accounts receivable
does not bear interest. Accounts receivable presented on the consolidated balance sheets are adjusted for any write-offs and net of allowance
for credit losses. The Company’s reserve for credit losses is developed by using relevant available information including historical
collection and loss experience, current economic conditions, prevailing economic conditions, supportable forecasted economic conditions
and evaluations of customer balances. Once a receivable is deemed uncollectible after collection efforts have been exhausted, it is written
off against the reserve for credit losses. The Company closely monitors the credit quality of its customers and does not generally require
collateral or other security on receivables. The reserve for credit losses is measured on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics
exist.
Based upon management’s assessment of the accounts
receivable aging and the customers’ payment history, the Company has determined that no reserve for credit losses is required as
of October 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024.
On January 22, 2024, the FDA issued an MDO on Bidi
Vapor’s “Classic” BIDI ® Stick PMTA, which was subsequently upheld by the 11 th Circuit Court of
Appeals. The Company evaluated the impact of this MDO to the financial statements and recorded an estimated accrual for potential customer
returns of the “Classic” products of zero and $ 46,775 as of October 31, 2025, and October 31, 2024, respectively, which is
included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets.
On November 4, 2025, FDA issued a MDO for the PMTA
for the non-tobacco flavored Bidi Sticks.
Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which are potentially subject
to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of purchases of inventories, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and revenue. The
Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral on trade receivables. Historically,
the Company has not experienced significant credit losses.
F- 10
Inventories
All product inventory is purchased from a related
party, Bidi. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes all costs of purchase and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The Company determines cost based on the first-in, first-out
(“FIFO”) method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated
costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. During fiscal year 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized inventory
write offs of zero 0 and $ 61,927 , respectively, related to short-coded Bidi sticks that were no longer saleable.
On January 22, 2024, the FDA issued an MDO on Bidi
Vapor’s tobacco-flavored “Classic” BIDI ® Stick PMTA. The appeal of that denial order before the 11 th
Circuit Court of Appeals was unsuccessful. The Company evaluated the impact of this MDO to the financial statements and recognized a full
reserve for all remaining “Classic” products on hand amounting to $ 313,654 as of October 31, 2024. The Company has zero inventory
as of October 31, 2025.
Leases
The Company determines if a contract contains a lease
at commencement of the arrangement based on whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use
of an identified asset and whether it has the right to direct the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration, which relates
to an asset which the Company does not own. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying
asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.
The Company recognizes lease liabilities at the present value of the future lease payments and a corresponding ROU asset at the lease
commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the rate implicit in the lease
unless that rate cannot be readily determined. When the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the interest
rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s Incremental Borrowing Rate (“IBR”).
The IBR is a hypothetical rate based on the Company’s understanding of what its credit rating would be to borrow and resulting interest
the Company would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment over the lease term on a collateralized
basis. Periods covered by the Company’s option to extend or terminate the lease are included in the lease term when it is reasonably
certain that the Company will exercise its option to extend or not exercise its option to terminate, as applicable.
Lease payments may be fixed or variable; however,
only fixed payments or in-substance fixed payments are included in the Company’s lease liability calculation. Variable lease payments
may include costs such as common area maintenance, utilities, real estate taxes or other costs. Variable lease payments are recognized
in operating expenses in the period in which the obligations for those payments are incurred. The Company records rent expense for its
operating lease, which has escalating rent payments, on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not have any financing
leases.
The Company made a policy election not to separate
non-lease components from lease components for all its leases; therefore, it accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease
component. The Company also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, such that leases with a term
of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet.
During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025, the
Company determined that it would no longer be using the leased office space in its business operations and the lease liability was written
off and recognized a net gain on termination of operating lease of $ 59,823 .
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets, which include
definite-lived intangibles, long-lived fixed assets and lease right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include significant under-performance
relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of the Company’s use of
the acquired assets or the strategy for the Company’s overall business or significant negative industry or economic trends. If this
evaluation indicates that the value of the long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company makes an assessment of the recoverability of
the net carrying value of the asset over its remaining useful life. If this assessment indicates that the long-lived asset is not recoverable,
based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the technology over the remaining useful life, the Company reduces the net carrying
value of the related asset to fair value and may adjust the remaining useful life. An impairment analysis is subjective and assumptions
regarding future growth rates and operating expense levels can have a significant impact on the expected future cash flows and impairment
analysis.
F- 11
The Company evaluated its intangible assets for impairment and recognized
an impairment loss of $ 9,895,503 for the year ended October 31, 2025. No impairment loss of long-lived assets was identified for the
year ended October 31, 2024.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with
ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The Company recognizes revenue when a customer
obtains control of promised goods, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the
goods. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1)
identify the contracts with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price;
(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies
a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the
consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to the customer. Under ASC 606, disaggregated revenue from contracts
with customers depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows affected by economic factors.
Products Revenue
The Company generates products revenue from the sale
of the Products (as defined above) to non-retail customers. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time based on management’s
evaluation of when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied and control of the Products has
been transferred to the customer. In most situations, transfer of control is considered complete when the products have been shipped to
the customer. The Company determined that a customer obtains control of the Product upon shipment when title of such product and risk
of loss transfer to the customer. However, when the Company enters a consignment agreement with a new customer, once it ships and delivers
the requested amount of ordered Products to its distribution center for its retail sales locations, the Company retains ownership of the
delivered Products until they are delivered to the actual retail stores (as opposed to the Company’s consignment customer). The
Company’s shipping and handling costs are fulfillment costs, and such amounts are classified as part of cost of sales. The Company
offers credit sales arrangements to non-retail (or wholesale) customers and monitors the collectability of each credit sale routinely.
Revenue is measured by the transaction price, which
is defined as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for providing goods to customers. The transaction price
is adjusted for estimates of known or expected variable consideration, which includes refunds and returns as well as incentive offers
and promotional discounts on current orders. Estimates for sales returns are based on, among other things, an assessment of historical
trends, information from customers, and anticipated returns related to current sales activity. These estimates are established in the
period of sale and reduce revenue in the period of the sale. Variable consideration related to incentive offers and promotional programs
are recorded as a reduction to revenue based on amounts the Company expects to collect. Estimates are regularly updated, and the impact
of any adjustments are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified. In many cases, key sales terms such as pricing and quantities
ordered are established at the time an order is placed and incentives have very short-term durations.
Amounts billed and due from customers are short term
in nature and are classified as receivable since payments are unconditional and only the passage of time related to credit terms is required
before payments are due. The Company does not grant payment financing terms greater than one year. Payments received in advance of revenue
recognition are recorded as deferred revenue, as noted above.
Royalty Revenue
On June 13, 2022, KBI entered into the PMI License
Agreement with PMPSA, effective as of May 13, 2022 (the “PMI Commencement Date”). Pursuant to the PMI License Agreement, KBI
granted PMPSA an exclusive irrevocable license to use its technology, documentation, and intellectual property to make, distribute, and
sell disposable nicotine e-cigarettes Products based on the intellectual property in certain international markets set forth in the PMI
License Agreement (the “PMI Markets”). The Company has the exclusive international distribution rights to the Products and,
F- 12
in order to allow KBI to fulfill its obligations set forth in the PMI License Agreement, has contributed the international distribution
rights for the PMI Markets to KBI as set forth in a Capital Contribution Agreement, dated June 10, 2022. The sublicense granted to PMPSA
is exclusive in the PMI Markets and neither KBI nor any of its affiliates can sell, promote, use, or distribute any competing products
in the PMI Markets for the duration of the term of the PMI License Agreement and any Sell-Out Period (as defined in the PMI License Agreement).
PMSPA will be responsible for any regulatory filings necessary to sell the Products in the PMI Markets. Both KBI and PMPSA agree to work
together in the registration and maintenance of the Intellectual Property, but KBI will bear all cost and expense to implement the registration
strategy. Finally, PMPSA has agreed to potential future development services with KBI in the PMI Markets and has been granted certain
rights with respect to potential future products.
The initial term of the PMI License Agreement is five
(5) years and automatically renews for an additional five-year period unless PMPSA has failed to meet the agreed upon minimum key performance
indicators set forth in the PMI License Agreement, in which case the PMI License Agreement will automatically terminate at the end of
the initial license term.
In consideration for the grant of the licensed rights,
PMPSA agreed to pay to KBI a royalty equal to a percentage of the base price of the first sale of each unit of Product manufactured. In
addition, before the launch of the first product in a market and each anniversary of such launch, PMPSA agrees to pre-pay to KBI a guaranteed
minimum royalty based on the estimated royalties payable by PMPSA to KBI in relation to all markets in the twelve (12)-month period following
the first launch or each successive anniversary of the first launch, subject to an aggregate maximum guaranteed royalty payment for all
markets for each applicable twelve (12)-month period. PMPSA may require modification of certain products to be sold under the PMI Licensing
Agreement to be modified for a PMI Market. Pursuant to the PMI Licensing Agreement, PMPSA has absolute discretion over sales, marketing,
product branding and packaging pertaining to sales in the PMI Markets, as well as the right to select the specific PMI Markets in which
to launch commercialization and determine what product types are to be promoted in each market, subject to sales and marketing plans and
annual business plans set by PMPSA and certain expansion criteria agreed between PMPSA and KBI. Royalty revenue earned from the PMI License
Agreement is recognized in the period the sales of the Product manufactured occurs.
The PMI License Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties, covenants, and indemnification provisions; however, KBI’s liability under the PMI License Agreement is capped at the
greater of: (i) Ten Million Dollars ($ 10,000,000 ); or (ii) an amount equal to the total of the royalties due to KBI (but not yet paid)
plus the royalties (including the guaranteed royalty payment) paid to KBI pursuant to the PMI License Agreement during the immediately
preceding twelve (12) consecutive months, provided that such amount shall not exceed Thirty Million Dollars ($ 30,000,000 ).
On June 10, 2022, Bidi entered into a License Agreement
(the “KBI License Agreement”) with KBI, pursuant to which KBI has the exclusive irrevocable license to use Bidi’s licensed
intellectual property to the extent necessary for KBI to fulfill its obligations set forth in the PMI Licensing Agreement. Such irrevocable
license includes: (i) the right of KBI to grant sub-licenses to PMPSA under the PMI License Agreement for the express purposes set forth
in the PMI License Agreement, but for no other purpose; (ii) the right of KBI to grant to PMPSA the right to grant sub-sub-licenses in
the manner set forth in the PMI License Agreement, but for no other purpose; and (iii) certain branding rights to the extent (but only
to the extent) necessary to permit KBI to perform its obligations to PMPSA as set forth in the PMI License Agreement.
On August 12, 2023, the Company executed and entered
into a Deed of Amendment No. 1 (the “PMI License Amendment”) with PMPSA, Bidi and KBI. Pursuant to the PMI License Amendment
(which has an effective date of June 30, 2023), the following material changes have been made to the PMI License Agreement:
1. Royalty Rate. The royalty paid
by PMPSA to KBI will no longer be based on sales price of the Product being sold, but rather on the volume of liquid contained within
Product being sold. The royalty will be on a sliding scale of between $0.08 to $0.16 per sale based on the volume of liquid contained
in the Product, increasing to between $0.10 to $0.20 per sale upon meeting certain sales milestones. For purposes of determining aggregate
sales threshold, all sales undertaken since commencement of the PMI Licensing Agreement will be counted.
2. Elimination of Certain Potential
Royalty Adjustments. Certain potential adjustments to the royalties receivable by KBI as provided for in the PMI License Agreement have
been eliminated.
F- 13
3. Guaranteed Royalty. The guaranteed
royalty payment owed to KBI under the PMI License Agreement has been eliminated. Instead, royalties will be paid on a quarterly basis
going-forward based on actual sales. Any unpaid guaranteed royalty has been cancelled.
4. Insurance Tail Requirements.
KBI’s requirement to keep certain tail insurance after the expiration or termination of the PMI Licensing Agreement was reduced
from 6 years to 2 years.
5. Markets. The identification
of the PMI Markets that PMI may enter has been expanded to cover certain additional territories.
6. Net Reconciliation Payment
to KBI. As a result of the changes to the PMI License Agreement described in paragraphs 1 through 3 above, the value of such changes
was calculated and reconciled as of the date of commencement of the PMI Licensing Agreement through June 30, 2023.
The KBI License Agreement provides that KBI shall
pay Bidi license fees equivalent to 50% of the adjusted earned royalty payments, after any offsets due to jointly agreed costs such general
and administrative costs incurred for insurance. During the year ended October 31, 2025, the Company paid license fees of approximately
$266,215 to Bidi. As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, $ 50,000 and 131,683 , respectively, of license fees are owed to Bidi.
As of October 31, 2025, amounts receivable from PMPSA
in connection with the PMI license agreement pertaining to royalties totaled $ 120,000 , of which $ 120,000 and $ 0 pertain to royalties and
reimbursements of certain non-recurring engineering costs, respectively. As of October 31, 2024, amounts receivable from PMPSA in connection
with the PMI license agreement pertaining to royalties totaled $ 263,367 , of which $ 263,367 and $ 0 pertain to royalties and reimbursements
of certain non-recurring engineering costs, respectively
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share
is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period, without consideration of potential common stock equivalents.
Diluted net loss per share
is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding plus common
share equivalents from conversion of dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury method and preferred stock using the if-converted
method, except when antidilutive. In the event of a net loss, the effects of all potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the diluted
net loss per share calculation as their inclusion would be antidilutive.
As of October 31, 2025, and
2024, there were 5,810,353 and 5,944,276 , respectively, units of common stock equivalents that consists of options and warrants units,
as well as 357,120 shares issuable upon preferred stock conversions, that were excluded from the current and prior period diluted loss
per share calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Concentration of Revenues and Accounts Receivable
No revenue concentration from the sale of Products
existed for the year ended October 31, 2025.
For the year then ended October 31, 2024, (i) 21 %
or $ 1,236,491 of the revenue from the sale of Products, solely consisting of the BIDI® Stick, was generated from QuikTrip Corporation,
(ii) 12 % or $ 678,562 was generated from GPM Investments, LLC, and (iii) 11 % or $ 655,583 was generated from FAVS Business, LLC. On May
2, 2024, QuikTrip Corporation terminated its consignment arrangement with the Company.
No accounts receivable concentration from the sale
of Products existed as of October 31, 2025.
QuikTrip Corporation with an outstanding balance of
$ 205 accounted for 100% of the total accounts receivable from customers as of October 31, 2024.
F- 14
Share-Based Compensation
The Company measures the cost of services received
in exchange for an award of equity instruments (share-based payments, referred to herein as “SBP”) based on the grant-date
fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which a recipient is required to provide service in exchange for
the SBP award—the requisite service period (vesting period). For SBP awards subject to performance conditions, compensation is not
recognized until the performance condition is probable of occurrence. The grant-date fair value of share options is estimated using the
Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model.
There were no options granted during the fiscal twelve-month
period ended October 31, 2025. The fair value of each option granted during the fiscal year then ended October 31, 2024, was estimated
on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model with the weighted average assumptions in the following table:
Schedule of weighted average assumptions
As of October
31, 2024
Expected dividend yield
0 %
Expected option term (years)
5.5 – 7
Expected volatility
214.72 - 225.52 %
Risk-free interest rate
3.78 - 4.63 %
The expected term of options granted represents the
period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected volatility was based on the volatility in the trading
of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate used is based on the published U.S. Department of Treasury interest rates
in effect at the time of stock option grant for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximating each grant’s expected
term. Forfeitures and cancellations are recorded as they occur.
Income Tax
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions
reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the
recorded book basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities
are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and
tax credits that are available to offset future federal income taxes. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions
will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s
financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow.
The Company has Federal net operating loss
(“NOL”) carryforwards, consisting of total deferred tax assets, totaling approximately $ 34.2 million and state NOL
carryforwards, consisting of total deferred tax liabilities, totaling approximately $ 0.4 million. With the changes instituted
by the CARES Act, the Federal NOLs have an indefinite life and will not expire. The Company’s federal and state tax returns
for the 2022, 2023, and 2024 tax years generally remain subject to examination by U.S. and various state authorities. A
valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax asset if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not
that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and
negative, management has determined that a valuation allowance of $ 10.1 million for the year ended on October 31, 2025, and a
valuation allowance of $ 8,703,742
for the year ended on October 31, 2024 were necessary to reduce the total net deferred tax asset to the amount that will more likely
than not be realized pursuant to ASC 740 for those fiscal years.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s balance sheet includes certain
financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively
short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.
F- 15
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability
(an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions
developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about
market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair
value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy
are described below:
●
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
●
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including 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; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
●
Level 3 – Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions
and pertinent information available to management as of October 31, 2025 and 2024. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet
financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include
cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and loans payable. As of October 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company did not
have any financial assets or liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
Segment Reporting
In accordance with ASC 280, Segment
Reporting , the Company has identified one reportable segment, which aligns with how the Chief Operating Decision Maker
(“CODM”), consisting of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, assesses financial performance and allocates
resources across the Company’s operations. The measure of segment profit or loss is net loss as per the consolidated
statements of operations and the measure of segment assets is total assets reported on the consolidated balance sheets.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment
Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure
requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The purpose of the amendment is to enable investors
to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K and will adopt the interim disclosures in the first quarter of 2026. ASU 2023-07 was adopted
retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement – Not
Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements
to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires additional disclosures reconciling the rates of different
categories of income tax (i.e. federal, state, foreign, etc.) and a disaggregation of taxes paid and refunded. ASU 2023-09 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and for interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, although
early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its income tax disclosures.
F- 16
Note 3 – Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
of the Company are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are
issued. In accordance with FASB, ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40),
the Company’s management evaluates whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt
about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the accompanying consolidated financial
statements are issued.
The
Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations for the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company
will need significant additional funds to satisfy its outstanding payables, fund its working capital, and fully implement its business
plan. In addition, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is adversely affected by the FDA’s denial of Bidi’s
PMTA for its non-tobacco flavored Bidi ® Stick as well as the Company’s inability to continue to sell the Bidi Stick
given the patent infringement claim filed by RJ Reynolds. Likewise, in April 2025 the 11 th Circuit upheld FDA’s MDO
for the Classic BIDI® Stick. Subsequently, on November 4, 2025, FDA issued a MDO for the PMTA for the non-tobacco flavored Bidi
Sticks. All of these factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company plans to continue developing strategies
for similar or expanded operations for the Company’s business to help the Company’s ability to determine where its business
will be viable going forward. Until such time, if ever, the Company can generate substantial product revenues, management plans to
finance its cash needs through public or private equity offerings or debt financing.
However, there is no assurance that the Company will
be able to raise additional capital, generate revenues or achieve profitability due to the factors listed above as well as the regulation
and public perception of ENDS products and the various other risks faced by the Company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements
do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these or other risks or uncertainties.
Note 4 – Intangible Assets
The Company’s intangible assets include patents
and technology that were acquired pursuant to the GoFire Asset Purchase Agreement (“GoFire APA”).
The cost and accumulated amortization
and impairment of the intangible assets amounted to $ 11,795,975
and $ 11,795,975
as of October 31, 2025, respectively and $ 11,795,975 and
$ 1,114,064 as
of October 31, 2024, respectively. Amortizable patents and technology have a useful life of 15.0
years with a weighted average remaining useful life of 0
years and 13.7
years as of October 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024, respectively.
The Company recognized an amortization expense of
$ 786,408 and $ 786,398 for the years then ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Amortization expense is included under general
and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
As of October 31, 2025, as a result of the termination of the merger and
share exchange agreement with Delta and the uncertainty in the Company’s ability to monetize and generate future cash flows from
the GoFire patents, the Company recognized an impairment loss on the intangible assets of $ 9,895,503 .
Note 5 – Loans Payable
Insurance Loans
On May 10, 2024, the Company obtained two
insurance loans. The first loan is a nine-month loan from First Insurance Bank to finance the annual D&O insurance, with the
principal amount of $ 381,077
and subject to an effective interest rate of 7.45 %.
The second loan is a nine-month loan from IPFS Corporation to finance the annual D&O insurance, with the principal amount of

The Company has Federal NOL carryforwards of
approximately $ 34.2 million and state NOL carryforwards of approximately $ 0.4 million. With the changes instituted by the CARES Act,
the Federal NOLs have an indefinite life and will not expire. The Company’s federal and state tax returns for the 2023 and 2024
tax years generally remain subject to examination by U.S. and various state authorities. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the
deferred tax asset if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management has determined that a valuation
allowance of $ 10,102,099 for the year ended on October 31, 2025, it is necessary to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that will
more likely than not be realized.

the ITC Complaint alleges that one or more components or elements of the Bidi Stick infringe U.S. Patent No. 11,925,202, which is owned
by one of the RJ Reynolds Entities. The ITC Complaint requests the ITC grant: (a) temporary and permanent limited exclusion orders pursuant
to Section 337(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, which would prohibit the importation of the Bidi Stick in the United States;
and (b) issue temporary and permanent cease and desist orders pursuant to 337(f) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, which would prohibit
the sale and distribution of the Bidi Stick in the United States. On July 17, 2024, the Company was dismissed from the ITC proceeding
and is no longer a defendant in the ITC proceeding. No damages are recoverable in the proceedings before the ITC. If Bidi is prohibited
from importing the Bidi Stick, then the Company’s business, operations, financial results, and reputation would be significantly
adversely impacted.
