4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
We
maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the SEC pursuant
to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures include controls
and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act
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 principal executive officer and principal financial officer to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, evaluated our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form
10-Q. Based on this evaluation, and in light of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below,
our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures
were not effective.
Material Weaknesses in Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting
As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, management identified the following
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which continued to exist as of June 30, 2026:
●
Ineffective
approval processes governing (i) timely Board of Directors authorization and (ii) segregation of duties and roles and responsibilities
configurations within the Company’s financial reporting system;
●
Inadequate
contract management process to capture all executed agreements prior to the commencement of services in order to ensure accuracy
within the proper accounting period;
●
Misapplication
of U.S. GAAP; and
●
Ineffective
disclosure controls and procedures a result of (i) lack of segregation of duties, (ii) lack of internal control structure review
and (iii) misapplication of U.S. GAAP.
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and the three months ended March 31, 2026, management, with the oversight of the Audit
Committee, undertook measures to enhance the Company’s internal control environment by implementing numerous controls
previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K to remediate the material weaknesses. During the three months ended June 30,
2026, management continued those remediation efforts by (i) implementing customer acceptance procedures, (ii) developing standard
vendor contract templates, (iii) enhancing disaster recovery and backup procedures and services on critical IT systems and (iv)
continuing independent control testing of the material weaknesses that is expected to continue through the remainder of
2026.
While
these remediation efforts are subject to ongoing management evaluation and will require validation and testing of the design and operating
effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles, management is committed
to maintaining a strong internal control program over financial reporting and will take further actions and implement additional enhancements
or improvements as necessary.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other
than the remediation efforts described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
