2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The
following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our financial
statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contain forward looking statements that
involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking
statements as a result of certain factors, including but not limited to, those which are not within our control.
Overview
The
Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 12, 2018. On June 7, 2023, the Company (“M2i Global, Inc.”) (formerly
known as “Inky Inc.”) filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada an Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to change
its corporate name from “Inky, Inc.”, to “M2i Global, Inc.”, effective June 7, 2023.
The
Company was formerly engaged in developing mobile software applications for smartphones and table devices. During May 2023, the Company
became the sole shareholder of U.S. Minerals and Metals Corp., a Nevada corporation (“USMM”) through the issuance of preferred
and common shares for cash. Concurrently, the Company shifted its operations to specialization in the development and execution of a
complete global value supply chain for critical minerals for the U.S. government and U.S. free trade partners. The Company’s vision
is to develop and execute a complete global value supply chain for critical minerals for the United States government and certain trading
partners of the United States. To implement this vision, the Company intends to operate three key business divisions as set forth below:
●
M2i
Mining, Processing & Refining: a business engaged in sourcing, extraction, processing, refining, transporting and selling primary
minerals and metals;
●
M2i
Scrap & Recycling: a business engaged in the collection, processing, transporting and selling of scrap, recycled and reused metals;
and
●
M2i
Government and Defense Industrial Base: a business engaged in aligning with U.S. policy to facilitate participation in U.S. government
programs such as the creation and management of a Strategic Minerals Reserve as an enhancement of the U.S. government’s National
Defense Stockpile.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
During
the period ended May 31, 2024, and through the filing of this report, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by
the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact
on the Company’s financial statements.
All
other new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective or adopted have been deemed not to be relevant to us, hence are not
expected to have any impact once adopted.
Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
There
have been no changes to the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2024.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
May 31, 2024, the Company had a cash balance of $72,508, as compared to a cash balance of $48,197 at November 30, 2023. The Company
incurred negative cash flow from operations of $783,994 for the period ended May 31, 2024, as compared to negative cash flow from
operations of $234,717 in the comparable prior year period. The increase in negative cash flows from operations was primarily from
an increase in net loss and increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Cash flows from financing activities during the
period ended May 31, 2024, totaled $808,305, as compared to cash flows from financing activities in the comparable prior year
period. The increase in cash provided by financing activities is primarily the result of $772,935 in proceeds from the sale of
shares of common stock. Going forward, the Company expects capital expenditures to increase significantly as operations are expanded
pursuant to its current growth plans. The Company anticipates the requirement to raise significant debt or equity capital in order
to fund future operations.

Comparison
of the Three and Six Months Ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023
For
the comparable three months ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, the Company’s revenues totaled $0. For the six months ended
May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, the Company’s revenues totaled $0 and $3,400, respectively. We anticipate the Company’s
revenues in upcoming quarters may increase significantly as management attempts to implement the Company’s new business
model.
For
the three months ended May 31, 2024, our operating expenses increased to $1,348,812 compared to $539,140 for the comparable period in
2023. The increase of $809,672 was primarily driven by travel and professional fees for consultants to implement the shift in strategic
focus and preparations for increased operations. For the six months ended May 31, 2024, our operating expenses increased to $2,023,997
compared to $570,531 for the comparable period in 2023. The increase of $1,453,466 was primarily driven by travel and professional fees
for consultants to implement the shift in strategic focus and preparations for increased operations. We anticipate future operating expenses
to increase with the expansion of operations, resulting in increased expenses related to compensation and professional fees.

Risk
Management and Strategy
We
recognize the critical importance of developing, implementing, and maintaining robust cybersecurity measures to safeguard our information
systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our data.
Managing
Material Risks & Integrated Overall Risk Management
We
have strategically integrated cybersecurity risk management into our broader risk management framework to promote a company-wide culture
of cybersecurity risk management. This integration ensures that cybersecurity considerations are an integral part of our decision-making
processes at every level. Our management team continuously evaluates and addresses cybersecurity risks in alignment with our business
objectives and operational needs.
Oversee
Third-party Risk
Because
we are aware of the risks associated with third-party service providers, we have implemented stringent processes to oversee and manage
these risks. We conduct thorough security assessments of all third-party providers before engagement and maintain ongoing monitoring
to ensure compliance with our cybersecurity standards. The monitoring includes annual assessments of the SOC reports of our providers
and implementing complementary controls. This approach is designed to mitigate risks related to data breaches or other security incidents
originating from third-parties.
Risks
from Cybersecurity Threats
We
have not encountered cybersecurity challenges that have materially impaired our operations or financial standing.
