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.
On
June 30, 2024, the Company and Komodo Capital (“Komodo”), a company specializing 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, entered into a strategic partnership
(the “Strategic Partnership”), in order for Komodo to use its relationships to provide the Company with access to various
critical minerals, with an ultimate goal of suppling the U.S. government and U.S. free trade partners with these critical minerals. Komodo
Capital also offers comprehensive advisory services. The Company issued 8,000,000 shares of common stock valued at $800 as part of this
agreement.
On
June 30, 2024, the Company and NTM Minerals Limited (“NTM”), a company specializing 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, entered into an exclusive
offtake agreement (the “Offtake Agreement”), in which NTM will provide for 88,000 tonnes of copper, currently valued at approximately
$850 million. The Company is granted offtake rights r a maximum of 88,000 tonnes of copper that is sourced from the Redbank tenements
in return for 12 million shares of the Company’s common stock. NTM shall receive additional payments for incremental resource increases
or upgrades from the Redbank tenements. M2i retains the option to participate in production pre-funding opportunities.
On
July 28, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) among
the Company, Volato Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Volato”), and Volato Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Nevada corporation

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
March 31, 2026, the Company had a cash balance of $67,283 compared to a cash balance of $515,438 at December 31, 2025. The Company incurred
negative cash flow from operations of $896,088 for the period ended March 31, 2026, as compared to negative cash flow from operations
of $245,792 in the comparable prior year period. The increase in negative cash flows from operations was primarily from an increase in
net loss offset by accrued expenses – related parties and accounts payable and accrued expenses. Cash flows from financing activities
during the period ended March 31, 2026, totaled $447,933, as compared to cash flows from financing activities in the comparable prior
year period of $228,492. The increase in cash provided by financing activities is the result of an increase in cash received for common
shares to be issued. 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 to fund future operations.
