ITEM 9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that
are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports, filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on the evaluation performed as of
February 28, 2025, as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that are described below in Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer determined that our disclosure
controls and procedures were not effective as of such date.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial
Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f).
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, its Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by such company’s board of directors, management and other personnel to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
•
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
•
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
•
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Table of Contents
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls
and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable
and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily
was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design
of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance
that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations
in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
As required by the SEC Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b),
we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the
end of the period covered by this report based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of February 28, 2025, at the reasonable
assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below.
1.
We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us for the year ended February 28, 2025. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency represented a material weakness.
2.
We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency represented a material weakness.
3.
Effective controls over the control environment were not maintained. Specifically, a formally adopted written code of business conduct and ethics that governs our employees, officers, and directors was not in place. Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices and represented a material weakness.
Management is actively engaged in addressing the material
weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting identified as of February 28, 2025. These weaknesses relate to the absence of
formal documentation of internal control procedures, limited segregation of duties within accounting functions, and an underdeveloped
control environment.
While
the Company’s size and structure present certain limitations, we recognize the importance of strengthening our internal controls
and have initiated steps to improve our control framework. During the fiscal year ending February 28, 2026, we plan to:
•
Begin formal documentation
of key internal control processes and procedures, consistent with the COSO 2013 framework;
•
Enhance segregation of
duties within our finance function to the extent feasible, and implement additional review controls where full segregation is not
practical;
•
Adopt a formal Code of
Business Conduct and Ethics and communicate it throughout the organization;
•
Improve communication and
documentation of our accounting policies and procedures.
We have also engaged external consultants to assist
in evaluating and enhancing our internal control environment and to provide additional support during the remediation process.
These efforts are ongoing, and while the material
weaknesses had not been fully remediated as of February 28, 2025, we are committed to making meaningful progress in the coming year. We
will continue to assess the effectiveness of these actions and report on our remediation progress in future filings.

Table of Contents
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There
has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d)
of the Exchange Act that occurred during our fourth quarter ended February
28, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except
for the planned remedial action toward the control deficiencies detailed above.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
The effectiveness of any system of internal
control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing,
implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly,
any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable,
not absolute assurances. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but there can be no
assurance that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

Rent is comparable to rent charged for
similar properties in the same relative area. The Consolidated entities do market research of a Minimum and a Maximum rental value within
the area at every renewal of the rental agreement to ensure this is market related, this exercise is undertaken together with a registered
property agent who has the appropriate knowledge of the area.
The Company leases office and warehouse
spaces under a cancelable operating lease agreement with contractual terms from August 1, 2023, to July 31, 2026. The Company is required
to pay property taxes, insurance, and normal maintenance costs for certain of these facilities and will be required to pay any increases

b. Loan
Loans payable includes an unsecured
loan of a $940,001 from the prior parent entity of DISA Medinotec in South Africa called Minoan Medical. This loan originated
to fund working capital and capex expansions of DISA Medinotec during the developmental and startup phase. After the acquisition of DISA
Medinotec on March 2, 2022, the Company assumed this liability. The Company has a period of 3 years from the IPO date or from the date
at which the Company starts trading on a national exchange (as defined in Section 3(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended), to repay the loan. During these 3 years the loan will carry interest at the prevailing prime lending rate of the time.
The Minoan Medical loan decreased
by $829,687 during the year ended February 28, 2025.
The prevailing prime lending rate
on the quarter ending February 28, 2025 in South Africa is 11.00%. The interest charged for the year was $141,748 and a 1% movement in
the interest rates constitutes a value of $12,886. The interest rate chargeable is a guideline determined by the South African Reserve
Bank and gets utilized by financial institutions to determine the financial gain they may derive from a loan. The Prime rate is therefore
an arm’s length transaction and justifiable rate that can be applied to a loan within the borders of the Republic of South Africa.
The Consolidated entities, particularly
Medinotec Inc. have the option to settle earlier and settlement can be in cash or any form of equivalent.
Minoan Medical’s ultimate
beneficial owner is the CEO of the Medinotec Group of Companies Dr. Gregory Vizirgianakis and is used to hold his investments of which
DISA Medinotec Proprietary Limited Incorporated was one before was got transferred into the Medinotec Group of Companies.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Medinotec Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet of Medinotec Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of February 28, 2025, the related consolidated
statement of operations and comprehensive income/(Loss), consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements
of cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company
as of February 28, 2025 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated 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 consolidated
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 audit, 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 audit included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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
consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical Audit matters are matters arising from the
current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee
and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially
challenging, subjective or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

in the United States is in Long Island, New York. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Medinotec Capital Proprietary Limited and DISA Medinotec,
of which both are incorporated in South Africa. Combined, the Company has experience in establishing facilities for the manufacturing
and design of niche medical devices and establishing international distribution networks to commercialize these devices.
The Company is seeking to expand
sales and distribution operations into the United States of America and other markets.
The Company’s audited consolidated
financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company received FDA 510(k) approval through the substantial equivalence process for
Class II medical devices for its main product, the Trachealator, in November 2021.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
a. Nature of business/basis
of preparation
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements
are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Emerging Growth Company (EGC)
status
The Company is an “emerging
growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012,
(the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable
to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the
auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation
in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive
compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

b. Foreign currency translation
i. Translation
of foreign subsidiary
The accounts of the foreign subsidiaries
are translated into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates and income and expense accounts are
translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in the exchange rates
are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders' equity.
Exchange gains or losses incurred
foreign exchange currency transactions conducted by one of the Company’s operations in a currency other than the operation’s
functional currency are reflected in other revenue/(expense).
ii. Exposed to currency variations
in subsidiary
The primary operations and functional
currency of both Disa Medinotec (Pty) Ltd and Medinotec Capital (Pty) Ltd is in South African Rand. Due to the emerging market nature
of this currency the spread volatility of the currency low and high can be material during a year. The conversion of the currency from
Rand to reporting currency US Dollar can cause significant up or downward trends that are recorded in reserves under the heading accumulated
comprehensive income.
The functional currency as well
as the reporting currency for Medinotec Inc is the US Dollar.
c. Cash and cash equivalents
i. Highly
liquid investments
The Medinotec Group of Companies
considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
These cash equivalents consist primarily of term deposits and certificates of deposit. Investments with maturities from greater than three
months to one year are classified as short-term investments, while those with maturities in excess of one year are classified as long-term
investments. Cash equivalents and short-term investments are stated at cost which approximates market value.
d. Accounts Receivables
i. Allowance
based on a review and management evaluation
Accounts receivables are presented
on the consolidated balance sheets, net of estimated uncollectible amounts. The carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable represent
the maximum credit risk exposure of these assets.
In accordance with FASB ASC 326,
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASC 326"), the Company evaluates the collectability of outstanding accounts
receivable balances to determine an allowance for credit losses that reflects its best estimate of the lifetime expected credit losses.
One major client constitutes 87 %
of the accounts receivable balance as at February 28, 2025, compared to 83 % on February 29, 2024.
An allowance for credit losses is
calculated taking into account all accounts older than 91+ days.
F- 8
Table of Contents
e. Property, plant and
equipment
i. Depreciation
rates
Property and equipment are stated
at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided for using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives as follows for the major classes of assets:
Plant and machinery
10 years
Laboratory equipment
5 years
Furniture and fixtures
6 years
Motor vehicles
5 years
Computer equipment
3 years
Office equipment
6 years
Computer software
2 years
Leasehold improvements
3 years
Small assets
1 year
f. Inventories
i. Valuation,
costing and obsolescence
Inventories are stated at the lower
of cost (weighted average) or net realizable value and consist of raw materials, work-in process and finished goods and include purchased
materials, machine time, direct labor and manufacturing overhead.
Management evaluates the need to
record adjustments to write down inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy
is to assess the valuation of all inventories, including raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and it writes down its inventory
for estimated obsolescence based upon the age of inventory and assumptions about future demand and usage.
g. Impairment of long-lived
assets
The Company assesses long-lived
assets for impairment in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment.
Long-lived assets (asset group), such as property and equipment subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable
if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. The
amount of impairment loss, if any, is measured as the difference between the carrying value of the asset and its estimated fair value.
Fair value is determined through
various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values, and third-party independent appraisals, as
considered necessary.
h. Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease
at inception. We determine the classification of the lease, whether operating or financing, at the lease commencement date, which is the
date the leased assets are made available for use. We use the non-cancelable lease term when recognizing the right-of-use (“ROU”)
assets and lease liabilities, unless it is reasonably certain that a renewal or termination option will be exercised. We account for lease
components and non-lease components as a single lease component. Modifications are assessed to determine whether incremental differences
result in new contract terms and accounted for as a new lease or whether the additional right of use should be included in the original
lease and continue to be accounted for with the remaining ROU asset.
F- 9
Table of Contents
Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities
are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments consist
of the fixed payments under the arrangement, less any lease incentives. Variable costs, such as common area maintenance costs and additional
payments for percentage rent, are not included in the measurement of the ROU assets and lease liabilities, but are expensed as incurred.
As the implicit rate of the leases is not determinable, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for
collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments in determining the present value of the lease payments. Lease expenses
are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We do not recognize ROU assets on lease arrangements with a term of 12 months
or less.
i. Allowance for credit losses
on loans receivable
The Company maintains an allowance
for credit losses on loans receivable in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses . This allowance reflects
management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual life of the loans, considering historical loss experience,
current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The estimate is developed using a combination of quantitative data and qualitative
factors, including borrower creditworthiness, loan-specific risk characteristics, macroeconomic trends, and other relevant information.
The allowance is adjusted through a provision for credit losses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, and loans
are charged off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible.
j. Employee benefit plans
The Company contributes 2.5 % of
basic salaries for eligible employees to a pension plan registered under the laws of South Africa. The Company also contributes a portion
of the medical aid contribution for eligible employees to an approved medical insurance scheme.
k. Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under
the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss
and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected
to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes the effect
of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured
at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period
in which the change in judgment occurs.
The Company records interest related
to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.
F- 10
Table of Contents
l. Financial instruments
i.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value accounting is applied
for all assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial
statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or
an exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The consolidated entities follow the established framework for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
ii.
Concentrations of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially
subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and loans.
The Company invests its excess cash in low-risk, highly liquid money market funds and certificates of deposit with a major financial institution.
iii.
Exposed to currency variations in subsidiary
The primary operations and functional
currency of a subsidiary's business is in South African Rand. Due to the emerging market nature of this currency the spread volatility
of the currency low and high can be material during a year. The conversion of the currency from Rand to reporting currency US Dollar can
cause significant up or downward trends that is recorded in reserves under the heading accumulated comprehensive income. The effect on
the reserves for the year ended February 28, 2025 was ( $ 55,815 ) compared to $ 15,804 for the year ended February 29, 2024.
iv.
Interest rate risk
Market interest rate risk may result
in loss from fluctuations in the future cash flows or fair values of financial instruments. Interest rate risk is managed principally
through monitoring interest rate gaps and basis risk and by having pre-approved limits for repricing bands.
The interest rate risk relates solely
to the related party loan.
m. Comprehensive income/loss
i.
Comprehensive income/loss
Comprehensive loss consists of net
loss and other gains and losses affecting stockholders’ equity that, under GAAP, are excluded from net loss. Our other comprehensive
loss represents foreign currency translation adjustment attributable to our operations. Refer to Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive
Loss.
Total foreign currency transaction
loss for the year ended February 28, 2025 was $ 55,815 , compared to gains of $ 15,804 for the year ended February 29, 2024.
n. Revenue recognition
Revenue represents the amount of
consideration expected to be received from customers in exchange for the transfer of products. Net sales exclude value added and other
taxes we collect from customers. Other costs to obtain and fulfill contracts are generally expensed as incurred due to the short-term
nature of most of our sales. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in net revenue.
F- 11
Table of Contents
The Company
generates revenues through two distinct revenue sources:
1.
From the sale of high-quality medical devices which are self-manufactured through in-depth research and development; and
2.
Through the distribution of finished products on behalf of other principals around the world into pre-agreed territories which are usually exclusive territories granted by such principal.
The Company applies the following
five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its arrangements:
•
identify the contract with a customer,
•
identify the performance obligations in the contract,
•
determine the transaction price,
•
allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract, and
•
recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue from the sale of self-manufactured
products
These products are developed in-house.
The Company’s clients are
billed based on a pricelist that is agreed on in each customers contract. Orders are shipped on a per order basis from the Company’s
warehouse with Free-On-Board Inco terms.
Revenues relating to the self-manufactured
products are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration
that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products.
Revenue from the distribution
of products
The distribution products are sold
via a network, which consists of a mixture of sub-distributors and in some instances a direct sales force. The Company’s clients
are billed based on a pricelist that are agreed upon in each customer contract, orders are shipped on a per order basis from the Company’s
warehouse with Free-on-Board Inco terms. The Company’s sub-distributors order from the Company on the same basis as its customers
and have no preferential return rights on their inventory orders, therefore the client assumes the risk of the sale at point of invoice.
Revenues relating to the distribution
products are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration
that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products. The transfer of control will typically be on the date of shipment.
Goods delivered to a consignee pursuant
to a consignment arrangement are not considered sales, and do not qualify for revenue recognition. Once it is determined that substantial
risk of loss, rewards of ownership, as well as control of the asset have transferred to the consignee, revenue recognition would then
be appropriate, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition have been satisfied.
F- 12
Table of Contents
For both revenue streams
The Company has two operating segments,
inside the United States and outside the United States. These sales are split by these territories and further segregated into the specific
revenue streams sold into these territories.
The Company has no contract assets or
liabilities representing accrued revenues that have not yet been billed to the customers due to certain contractual terms, because of
the fact that orders are placed, invoiced, and shipped on a per order basis as and when the clients require additional inventory. All
revenue is recognized at a specific point and time.
Under ASC Topic 606, the Company estimates
the transaction price, including variable consideration, at the commencement of the contract and recognizes revenue at point of sale when
risks and rewards are transferred to the customer. There are no contract revenue agreements that would need to be recognized over time
and the point of risks and rewards being transferred is very clear.
Payment Terms
Our payment terms vary per segments; export
sales made from within South Africa are subject to prepayment, where accounts are granted. They generally have payment terms of 30 days
from statement and sales made inside the United States are 45 to 60 days. Terms can be extended by the Company when it deems the business
case and credit worthiness of the customer is strong enough. The time between a customer’s payment and the receipt of funds is not
significant. The Company’s contracts with customers do not result in significant obligations associated with returns, refunds, or
warranties. Payment terms are generally fixed and do not include variable revenues.
The Company sells a significant amount
to DISA Life Sciences. For the year ending February 28, 2025, 88 %
of the Company's total revenue is derived from this single customer in the distribution environment in South Africa compared to 86 %
for the year ending February 29, 2024. During fiscal 2025, a receivable was recognized for revenue earned from DISA Life Sciences.
As of February 28, 2025, no sales taxes have been recorded, as no invoice has been issued. The related sales tax return will be finalized
in accordance with standard invoicing timelines or adjusted as necessary upon invoice issuance.

Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM)
The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive
Officer, who is responsible for strategic decision-making and resource allocation. The CEO, with support from the executive leadership
team, regularly reviews financial and operational results segmented by geographic region. These reports form the basis for internal decision-making
and operational management.
The Company has determined that it operates in
two reportable geographic segments: Inside the United States and Outside the United States. These segments reflect the manner in which
the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) assesses financial performance and allocates resources.
Basis of Segmentation
Operating segments are determined based on the
internal reports regularly reviewed by the CODM. Geographic segmentation reflects the Company's internal management structure and reporting
lines, as operations within the United States and internationally are subject to distinct market, regulatory, and customer dynamics.
Performance Measures Reviewed by CODM
The CODM evaluates segment performance primarily
using income/loss from operations, which includes revenues, cost of goods sold, and major operating expenses. This measure is reviewed
regularly and is considered the most relevant indicator of segment profitability and operating efficiency. Segment results are prepared
on a basis consistent with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, with no adjustments for intersegment transactions.
Granular Segment Expense Reporting
To support effective decision-making,
the CODM reviews segment-level performance at a more detailed level than presented in the consolidated financial statements. Specifically,
the CODM receives and evaluates reports that disaggregate significant
expenses such as:
•
Selling Expenses
•
Depreciation
•
General and Administrative Expenses
•
Research and Development Expenses
This level of detail enables the CODM to evaluate
cost drivers and profitability more effectively across geographic segments.

portion of this is maintained inside the United States in USD of $ 2,019,628 for the year ending February 28, 2025 and $ 2,478,434
for the year ending February 29, 2024.
p. Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold consists primarily
of raw material purchases, manufacturing costs and employee benefits paid to operational personnel associated with the production of our
medical devices.
q. General and administrative
expenses
General and administrative expenses
consist mostly of personnel costs, consulting fees as well as audit fees.
r. Research and development
All research and development expenses
are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses. Our research and development efforts are limited in scope and primarily
focused on enhancing existing production processes. We undertake R&D projects only when a working prototype and proof of concept exist,
and after assessing economic viability. Projects that cannot be efficiently integrated into our current manufacturing infrastructure are
not pursued.
s. Interest expense
Interest expense relates mostly
to is an unsecured loan from Minoan Medical which is repayable over the next 2 years. The loan carries interest at the prevailing prime
lending rate of the time. The prevailing lending rate in South Africa was 11.00 % at year end. The terms of this loan are deemed to be
market related.
t. Earnings per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share
are computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year.
The diluted earnings/(loss) per
share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period, by applying the treasury stock
method. For periods in which we report net losses, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because potentially
dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no potentially dilutive securities
outstanding during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025; accordingly, no additional shares have been included in the diluted earnings
per share calculation.

include the accounts of Medinotec Inc., Medinotec Capital Proprietary Limited and the financial statements of DISA Medinotec Proprietary
Limited, known as “the Company”. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

v. Use
of estimates
i. Actual
results could differ
The preparation of consolidated financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates and may have an impact on future periods. As detailed in the Critical Accounting
Estimates section above, the key accounting estimates are as follows:
•
Allowance for credit losses on loans receivables
•
Inventory: Valuation, costing and obsolescence
•
Deferred tax assets
w.
Recently issued accounting standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU
2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation
of Income Statement Expenses. The ASU is intended to enhance transparency of income statement disclosures primarily through additional
disaggregation of relevant expense captions. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026,
and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with prospective or retrospective application permitted.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2023, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-05, Business Combinations-Joint Venture
Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement (“ASU 2023-05”), which addresses the accounting for contributions
made to a joint venture, upon formation, in a joint venture’s separate financial statements. The amendments require certain joint
ventures to apply a new basis of accounting upon formation by recognizing and initially measuring most of their assets and liabilities
at fair value. The objectives of the amendments are to provide decision-useful information to investors and other allocators of capital
in a joint venture’s financial statements and also to reduce diversity in practice. ASU 2023-05 is effective for both public and
private joint venture entities with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may elect to apply
the guidance retrospectively to joint ventures with a formation date prior to January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption
of this standard to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03,
Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions to clarify that
a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of a unit of account of the equity security, and, therefore,
is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize
and measure a contractual sale restriction. The amendments also require the following disclosures for equity securities subject to the
contractual sale restrictions.
1. The fair value of equity securities
subject to the contractual sale restrictions reflected on the balance sheet.
2. The nature and remaining duration of
the restriction(s).
3. The circumstances that could cause
a lapse in the restriction(s).
This guidance is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those financial years. The Company does not expect the adoption of
this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
F- 16
Table of Contents
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance
Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations, which enhances transparency surrounding the use of supplier
finance programs. The new guidance requires qualitative and quantitative disclosure sufficient to enable users of the financial statements
to understand the nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude of such programs. The amendments
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the
amendment on roll forward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has evaluated
the effect of this standard on its operations and has determined that it has no material impact.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU
2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures", which amends the disclosure to improve
reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses on an annual and
interim basis for to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. All public entities will be required to report
segment information in accordance with the new guidance starting in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has
implemented this standard for the current fiscal year.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU
2023-09, " Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures", which amends the disclosure to address investor
requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate
reconciliation and income taxes paid information and includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures.
For entities other than public business entities, the requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025.
The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted.
The Company is currently assessing potential impacts of ASU 2023-09 and does not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material
impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures and the Company is in a loss position and not incurring any
tax expenses.
3. Fair
Value Measurements
The Consolidated entities report
all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial
statements on a recurring basis. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs. The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level
3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1—Inputs are quoted
prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement
date.
Level 2—Inputs are observable,
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets
or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for
substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
Level 3—Inputs are unobservable
inputs for the asset or liability.
The level in the fair value hierarchy
within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value measurement
in its entirety.
At February 28, 2025 and February
29, 2024, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable were short term in
nature, and their carrying amounts approximate fair value. Our current and long-term debt arrangements are classified as level 2 financial
instruments.

the cost of assets with the revenue generated during the period.

The Trachealator product obtained FDA
approval in November 2021, which allowed the Company to sell this product into the United States of America. Since the Company had no
prior sales channels or infrastructure in the United States, management found it prudent to plan a roll out of the product with a distributor
that had an established network and infrastructure. For this business, the Company partnered with a company called Innovative Outcomes
and entered into a revolving credit facility to a maximum of $ 750,000 . Innovative Outcomes would use this to grow both their own distribution
network and infrastructure and also allow for the Company to utilize this network and infrastructure. However, during quarter ending
November 30, 2023, there was a material change in strategic focus where the Company would require its products to be marketed to niche
surgical units, Innovative Outcomes would be servicing the wound care clinic market only which meant that the future growth of the combined
network and infrastructure would not be a strategic match between the two entities. It was therefore decided to separate the network
and infrastructure developed and for each company to pursue its strategic focus. The note receivable will continue on the same terms
and become payable later in the 2024 financial year, but the Company decided to provide full impairment against this receivable on November
30, 2023. This decision was made in prudence due to the fact that the receivable is no longer backed by any Trachealator revenue streams.
This does not change that Innovative Outcomes will still be liable for payment of this in the future. Should payments be received this
provision will be reversed with the same amount of cashflow received. We have taken legal action in order to recover the amount outstanding.

During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2024, the
Company entered into a non-cash settlement arrangement involving its loan payable to Minoan Medical. Under this arrangement, a third-party
trading partner settled a portion of the loan balance directly with Minoan Medical on behalf of Medinotec. The net impact of this arrangement
was a non-cash offset of $ 339,209 . During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2024, the Company made cash loan payment in the amount a
$ 9,680 , which is included in the financing cash outflows in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
Minoan Medical Proprietary Limited:
Loans payable consists of a $ 940,001
unsecured loan from the prior parent entity of DISA Medinotec in South Africa called Minoan Medical. This loan originated to fund working
capital and capex expansions of DISA Medinotec during the developmental and startup phase. After the acquisition of DISA Medinotec on
March 2, 2022, the Company assumed this liability. The Company has a period of 3 years after the IPO date of 31 March 2023 or a date at
which the Company starts trading on a a national exchange (as defined in Section 3(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
to repay the loan. During these 3 years the loan will carry interest at the prevailing prime lending rate of the time. The prevailing
lending rate in South Africa was 11.00 % at year end compared to 11.75 % on February 29, 2024. The terms of this loan are deemed to be market
related.
The Minoan Medical loan decreased
by $ 829,687 during the year ended February 28, 2025 as detailed in the table above.
The interest charged for the year
was $ 141,748 and a 1% movement in the interest rates constitutes a value of $12,886 .
The Company has the option for
early settlement in cash or any form of equivalent.
Minoan Medical Proprietary Limited’s
ultimate beneficial owner is the CEO of the Medinotec Group of Companies Dr. Gregory Vizirgianakis and is used to hold his medical investments
and exports of which DISA Medinotec Proprietary Limited Incorporated was one of these investments before it got transferred into the
Medinotec Group of Companies.
Minoan Capital Proprietary Limited:
This is an unsecured, interest free
loan with no fixed terms of repayment.
Minoan Medical and Minoan Capital
are related parties of the Group as the CEO Dr Gregory Vizirgianakis has common control.

11. Commitments
a. Leases and deferred rent
The Company accounts for leases under ASC
842, Leases . The Company leases office and warehouse spaces under a cancelable operating lease agreement with contractual terms
from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026 from a third-party entity that is considered a related party due to mutual directorship with a member
of the Company’s Board. The Company is required to pay property taxes, insurance, and normal maintenance costs for certain of these
facilities and will be required to pay any increases over the base year of these expenses on the remainder of the Company’s facilities.
Management believes the terms of the lease are consistent with market rates and were entered into at arm’s length.
Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets
and corresponding lease liabilities are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet at the commencement date based on the present value
of future lease payments. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, as the implicit rate is not readily
determinable. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Short-term leases (terms of 12 months or less)
are not capitalized and are expensed as incurred.
Rental expense for operating leases
for the period ended February 28, 2025 was $ 32,031 compared to $ 32,142 for the period ended February 29, 2024.
Lease cost associated with operating
leases is charged to general and administrative expenses in our consolidated financial statements. The exercise of lease renewal options
is at our sole discretion. No extension period has been included in the determination of the right of use asset or the lease liability,
as we concluded that it is not reasonably certain that we would exercise such option.

liability as of February 28, 2025 was as follows:

From time to time, the Company may become
involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business and may be subject to third-party infringement claims.
In the normal course of business,
the consolidated entities my agree to indemnify third parties with whom it enters into contractual relationships, including customers,
lessors, and parties to other transactions with the Consolidated entities, with respect to certain matters. The Consolidated entities
has agreed, under certain conditions, to hold these third parties harmless against specified losses, such as those arising from a breach
of representations or covenants, other third-party claims that the Group’s products when used for their intended purposes infringe
the intellectual property rights of such other third parties, or other claims made against certain parties. It is not possible to determine
the maximum potential amount of liability under these indemnification obligations due to the Consolidated entities limited history of
prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances that are likely to be involved in each claim.
From time to time, the Consolidated
entities are subject to various claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that any liability of the consolidated
entities that may arise out of or with respect to these matters will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations,
or cash flows of the Consolidated entities.
At the reporting date there is no
known material litigation or claims against the Group.

Deferred tax assets refer to assets that
are attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets in essence represent future savings of taxes that would otherwise be paid in cash. The realization
of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient future taxable income, including capital gains. If it is determined
that the deferred tax assets cannot be realized, a valuation allowance must be established, with a corresponding charge to net income.
It is management’s estimate that certain deferred tax assets will be utilized in full in the next 12 months.

U.S. federal tax has been provided on the undistributed earnings of the foreign subsidiaries as of February 28, 2025 as the company intends
to permanently reinvest the earnings. As of February 28, 2024, the Company has no liabilities for uncertain tax positions. It is the
Company’s policy to record inter est and penalties as a component of tax expense. The Company files income tax returns in
the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state jurisdictions and South Africa. With few exceptions, the fiscal years that remain subject
to examination are February 29, 2024 through February 28, 2025.
In October 2021, the Organisation for Economic
Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework released a two-pillar solution to address the tax challenges of the digital
economy. Pillar Two introduces a global minimum corporate tax regime that applies to multinational enterprises (MNEs) with annual consolidated
revenue of €750 million or more.
The Company operates manufacturing and
distribution activities in several jurisdictions, including the United States and South Africa. Although South Africa has announced its
intention to implement a Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax (QDMTT) beginning in 2024 under Pillar Two, the Group’s consolidated
revenue for the past two fiscal years has not exceeded the €750 million threshold. As such, the Group is not currently within the
scope of the Pillar Two global minimum tax rules.
The Company continues to monitor developments
related to Pillar Two in the jurisdictions in which it operates, including the United States and South Africa. If future changes to revenue
thresholds or group composition bring the Company into scope, the potential tax impacts will be assessed in accordance with ASC 740, Income
Taxes .
Based on the current scope criteria and
the absence of substantively enacted legislation in the United States, no amounts have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements
related to Pillar Two. Any future obligations arising from the implementation of these rules, should the Group become subject to them,
will be accounted for as current-period tax expenses, consistent with the FASB staff guidance issued in 2023.
