Industry
Trends Affecting Our Business
Management
believes the following trends and uncertainties may have a material, favorable or unfavorable impact on the Company’s business.
Interest
rate environment and credit conditions
Interest
rate levels and broader monetary policy conditions continue to influence borrowing costs, credit availability and financing activity
across consumer and commercial lending markets, including automotive finance. Sustained elevated rates may temper near-term financing
volumes among customers, while creating demand for technology investments that support operational efficiency and risk management.
Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Monetary Policy Report , 2025.
Electrification
of the automotive industry
The
automotive industry continues its transition toward electrified vehicles, supported by regulatory developments and long-term manufacturer
strategies. Chinese automotive manufacturers have become significant participants in the electric vehicle segment, intensifying competition
across the global automotive landscape. The Company’s established presence and customer base in China may support participation
in this growth, while shifts in market share among traditional automotive OEMs could affect technology investment patterns across the
Company’s broader customer base.

Energy Agency (IEA), Global EV Outlook 2025 .

Digital
and omnichannel automotive retail
OEMs
and dealers continue to adopt digital tools and omnichannel retail approaches, integrating online and physical channels across vehicle
research, configuration and transaction processes. Continued investment in digital retail capabilities by automotive OEMs and dealerships
may support demand for the Company’s Transcend Retail platform, although adoption pace and implementation timing vary across customers
and regions.
McKinsey
& Company, Automotive & Assembly Insights (2024–2025 publications).
Digital
transformation in financial services
Financial
institutions and captive finance companies continue to invest in digital transformation initiatives, including cloud adoption, data infrastructure
modernization and automation of operational processes. Continued investment in these areas may support demand for the Company’s
Transcend Platform, including its consulting and AI offerings. The pace and scale of customer transformation initiatives vary based on
internal priorities, budget cycles and the complexity of replacing or integrating with existing core systems.
PwC,
Global Financial Services Industry Insights (Technology and Transformation publications, 2024–2025).
Global
regulatory and compliance environment
Financial
institutions continue to operate within an evolving global regulatory environment, including banking supervision and capital adequacy
frameworks, which may influence compliance requirements and operational processes. The Company’s platform supports risk management,
audit and compliance reporting workflows that may help customers address evolving requirements. At the same time, regulatory uncertainty
and compliance-related investment may extend customer decision-making timelines or shift technology priorities toward maintenance and
remediation initiatives.

A
significant portion of our business is conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We operate in several geographical regions
as described in Note 16 “Operating Segments” within the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Weakening
of the value of the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currency exchange rates generally has the effect of increasing our revenues but also
increasing our expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Similarly, strengthening of the U.S. dollar compared to
foreign currency exchange rates generally has the effect of reducing our revenues but also reducing our expenses denominated in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar. We plan our business accordingly by deploying additional resources to areas of expansion, while continuing
to monitor our overall expenditures given the economic uncertainties of our target markets. In order to provide a framework for assessing
how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we compare the changes in results from
one period to another period using constant currency. In order to calculate our constant currency results, we apply the current period
results to the prior period foreign currency exchange rates. In the table below, we present the change based on actual results in reported
currency and in constant currency.

License
fees for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $4,728,411 compared to $1,198 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting
an increase of $4,727,213 or $4,722,857 on a constant currency basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized approximately
$4,656,000 of software license revenue associated with the renewal and amendment of an existing customer agreement for our Transcend TM
software platform. The license revenue relates to additional license consideration associated with expanded portfolio usage under the
customer arrangement. Revenue associated with maintenance and support services under the arrangement will continue to be recognized over
the contractual service period.

Subscription
and support
Subscription
and support fees for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were $8,810,115 compared to $7,888,360 for the three months ended March 31,
2025, reflecting an increase of $921,755 with an increase in constant currency of $876,274. Subscription and support fees begin once
a customer has “gone live” with our product and are recurring in nature. We anticipate these fees to increase over time as
we implement our Transcend TM products.
Services
Services
income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $6,294,117 compared to $9,654,399 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting
a decrease of $3,360,282, with a decrease in constant currency of $3,590,398. Services revenue decreased compared to the prior quarter,
primarily due to the timing and composition of the current implementation projects.
Gross
Profit
The
gross profit was $11,028,642 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $8,741,773 for the three months ended March 31,
2025. This is an increase of $2,286,869 with an increase in constant currency of $2,107,482. The gross profit percentage for the three
months ended March 31, 2026, also increased to 55.6% from 49.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The cost of sales was $8,804,001
for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $8,802,184 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, for an increase of $1,817
and on a constant currency basis a decrease of $99,947. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased from 50.2% for the three months
ended March 31, 2025, to 44.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Salaries
and consultant fees decreased by $437,279 from $6,771,928 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, to $6,334,649 for the three months
ended March 31, 2026, and on a constant currency basis decreased by $557,248. The decrease is due to capitalization of internally developed
software. As a percentage of sales, salaries, and consultant expenses decreased from 38.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2025,
to 31.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Travel
expenses were $814,581 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $451,895 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, for
an increase of $362,686 with an increase in constant currency of $354,510. As a percentage of sales, travel expense increased from 2.6%
for the three months ended March 31, 2025, to 4.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Travel expenses increased due to travel
associated with new customer implementation projects.
Depreciation
and amortization expense decreased to $192,897 compared to $240,444 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, or a decrease of $47,547
and on a constant currency basis a decrease of $47,876.
Other
costs were $1,461,874 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1,337,917 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, or
an increase of $123,957, and on a constant currency basis, an increase of $150,667.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
expenses were $8,022,491 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $7,188,375 for the three months ended March 31, 2025,
for an increase of $834,116 and on a constant currency basis an increase of $710,620. As a percentage of sales, it slightly decreased
from 41.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to 40.5% at March 31, 2026. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due
to increases in selling and marketing expenses, salaries and wages, other general and administrative expenses, offset by a decrease in
the provision for doubtful accounts.
Selling
and marketing expenses were $2,907,171 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2,426,083 for the three months ended March
31, 2025, for an increase of $481,088 and on a constant currency basis an increase of $459,942. The increase is mainly due to increases
in salaries and consultants of approximately $359,048, due to annual raises and commission. Other marketing expenses increased by approximately
$115,876 due to the increase in advertising and marketing events.
Page 45
General
and administrative expenses were $4,948,936 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $4,457,504 for the three months ended
March 31, 2025, or an increase of $491,432 and on a constant currency basis an increase of $388,850. During the three months ended March
31, 2026, salaries increased by $707,692 and increased by $652,345 on a constant currency basis, bad debt expense decreased by $340,312
and decreased by $351,095 on a constant currency basis, and other general and administrative expenses increased by $124,052 and increased
by $87,600 on a constant currency basis.
Research
and development cost was $166,384 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $304,788 for the three months ended March 31,
2025, for a decrease of $138,404 and on a constant currency basis a decrease of $138,172.
Income/Loss
from Operations
Income
from operations was $3,006,151 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1,553,398 for the three months ended March 31,
2025. This represents an increase in income of $1,452,753 with an increase of $1,396,862 on a constant currency basis for the three months
ended March 31, 2026, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025. As a percentage of sales, income from operations was 15.1%
for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 8.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Other
Income and Expense
Other
income was $89,720 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $432,366 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This represents
a decrease in other income of $342,646 with a decrease of $340,497 on a constant currency basis. The decrease is primarily due to the
foreign currency exchange transactions. The majority of the contracts with NetSol PK are either in U.S. dollars or Euros; therefore,
the currency fluctuations will lead to foreign currency exchange gains or losses depending on the value of the PKR compared to the U.S.
dollar and the Euro. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized a loss of $76,178 in foreign currency exchange transactions
compared to a gain of $321,622 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the value of
the U.S. dollar decreased 0.3% and the Euro decreased 2.4%, compared to the PKR. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the value
of the U.S. dollar increased 0.3% and the Euro increased 4.5%, compared to the PKR.
Non-controlling
Interest
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, the net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $1,013,664, compared to $410,462 for
the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is mainly due to the increase in net income of NetSol PK.
Net
income (loss) attributable to NetSol
The
net income was $1,300,964 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1,423,968 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
This is a decrease of $123,004 with a decrease of $98,830 on a constant currency basis, compared to the prior year. For the three months
ended March 31, 2026, net income per share was $0.11 for basic and diluted shares compared to a net income per share of $0.12 for basic
and diluted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

A
significant portion of our business is conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We operate in several geographical regions
as described in Note 16 “Operating Segments” within the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Weakening
of the value of the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currency exchange rates generally has the effect of increasing our revenues but also
increasing our expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Similarly, strengthening of the U.S. dollar compared to
foreign currency exchange rates generally has the effect of reducing our revenues but also reducing our expenses denominated in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar. We plan our business accordingly by deploying additional resources to areas of expansion, while continuing
to monitor our overall expenditures given the economic uncertainties of our target markets. In order to provide a framework for assessing
how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we compare the changes in results from
one period to another period using constant currency. In order to calculate our constant currency results, we apply the current period
results to the prior period foreign currency exchange rates. In the table below, we present the change based on actual results in reported
currency and in constant currency.

License
fees for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, were $4,918,118 compared to $75,115 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 reflecting
an increase of $4,843,003 with an increase in constant currency of $4,832,969. During the nine months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized
approximately $4,656,000 of software license revenue associated with the renewal and amendment of an existing customer agreement for
our Transcend TM software platform. The license revenue relates to additional license consideration associated with expanded
portfolio usage under the customer arrangement. Revenue associated with maintenance and support services under the arrangement will continue
to be recognized over the contractual service period.

Subscription
and support
Subscription
and support fees for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, were $26,850,453 compared to $24,723,460 for the nine months ended March 31,
2025, reflecting an increase of $2,126,993 with an increase in constant currency of $1,728,674. Subscription and support fees begin once
a customer has “gone live” with our product and are recurring in nature. We anticipate these fees to increase over time as
we implement our Transcend TM products.
Services
Services
income for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, was $21,884,473 compared to $22,880,541 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting
a decrease of $996,068, with a decrease in constant currency of $1,368,399. Services revenue decreased primarily due to the timing and
composition of the current implementation projects.
Gross
Profit
The
gross profit was $25,969,724 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $22,226,226 for the nine months ended March 31,
2025. This is an increase of $3,743,498 with an increase in constant currency of $3,073,176. The gross profit percentage for the nine

ended March 31, 2026, and on a constant currency basis increased by $593,842. The increase is due to annual salary raises. As a percentage
of sales, salaries and consultant expenses decreased from 41.3% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, to 38.0% for the nine months
ended March 31, 2026.
Travel
expenses were $2,342,194 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1,624,008 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, for
an increase of $718,186 with an increase in constant currency of $708,147. As a percentage of sales, travel expense increased from 3.4%
for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, to 4.4% for the nine months ended March 31, 2026. Travel expenses increased due to travel associated
with new customer implementation projects.
Depreciation
and amortization expense decreased to $591,694 compared to $706,876 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, or a decrease of $115,182
and on a constant currency basis a decrease of $109,727.
Other
costs were $4,367,363 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $3,431,907 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, or an
increase of $935,456 and on a constant currency basis an increase of $927,806. The increase is mainly due to an increase in third-party
hardware and software costs of approximately $960,840 and hosting fees of approximately $197,606, offset by a reduction in other cost
of approximately 222,990.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
expenses were $23,502,547 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $21,919,936, for the nine months ended March 31, 2025,
for an increase of $1,582,611 and on a constant currency basis an increase of $1,320,500. As a percentage of sales, it decreased from
46.0% to 43.8%. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increases in selling and marketing expenses, salaries and wages,
offset by a decrease in other general and administrative expenses and the provision for doubtful accounts.
Selling
and marketing expenses were $9,040,203 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $7,380,679, for the nine months ended March
31, 2025, for an increase of $1,659,524 and on a constant currency basis an increase of $1,524,489. The increase is mainly due to increases
in salaries and consultants of approximately $1,190,301, due to annual raises and commissions. Other marketing expenses increased by
approximately $436,001 due to the increase in advertising and marketing events.
Page 49
General
and administrative expenses were $13,833,904 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $13,540,851 for the nine months ended
March 31, 2025, or an increase of $293,053 and on a constant currency basis, an increase of $158,787. During the nine months ended March
31, 2026, salaries increased by $1,142,329 and increased by $1,075,978 on a constant currency basis, bad debt expense decreased by $725,022
and decreased by $736,604 on a constant currency basis, and other general and administrative expenses decreased by $124,254 and decreased
by $180,587 on a constant currency basis.
Research
and development cost was $628,440 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $998,406 for the nine months ended March 31,
2025, for a decrease of $369,966, and on a constant currency basis a decrease of $253,716.
Income/Loss
from Operations
Income
from operations was $2,467,177 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $306,290 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025.
This represents an increase in income of $2,160,887 with an increase of $1,752,676 on a constant currency basis for the nine months ended
March 31, 2026, compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2025. As a percentage of sales, income from operations was 4.6% for the
nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 0.6% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025.
Other
Income and Expense
Other
income was $69,337 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1,272,408 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025. This represents
a decrease in other income of $1,203,071 with a decrease of $1,198,290 on a constant currency basis. The decrease is primarily due to
lower interest income, driven by a reduction in interest rates from approximately 10.0%-19.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025,
to approximately 8.9% to 10.8% for the nine months ended March 31, 2026. The decrease is also due to the foreign currency exchange transactions.
The majority of the contracts with NetSol PK are either in U.S. dollars or Euros; therefore, the currency fluctuations will lead to foreign
currency exchange gains or losses depending on the value of the PKR compared to the U.S. dollar and the Euro. During the nine months
ended March 31, 2026, we recognized a loss of $317,021 in foreign currency exchange transactions compared to a gain of $165,741 for the
nine months ended March 31, 2025. During the nine months ended March 31, 2026, the value of the U.S. dollar decreased 1.6% and the Euro
decreased 3.7%, compared to the PKR. During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, the value of the U.S. dollar increased 0.5% and the
Euro increased 1.5%, compared to the PKR.
Non-controlling
Interest
For
the nine months ended March 31, 2026, the net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $1,868,869, compared to $518,212 for
the nine months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is mainly due to an increase in the net income of NetSol PK and NAMECET.
Net
income (loss) attributable to NetSol
The
net loss was $809,567 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to net income of $347,721 for the nine months ended March 31,
2025. This is an increase in net loss of $1,157,288 with an increase of $1,572,734 on a constant currency basis, compared to the prior
year. For the nine months ended March 31, 2026, net loss per share was $0.07 for basic and diluted shares compared to net income per
share of $0.03 for basic and diluted shares for the nine months ended March 31, 2025.

Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
Regulation
S-K Item 10(e), “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Commission Filings,” defines and prescribes the conditions for use
of non-GAAP financial information. Our measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA per basic and diluted share meet the definition
of a non-GAAP financial measure.
We
define the non-GAAP measures as follows:
●
EBITDA
is GAAP net income or loss before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization.
●
Non-GAAP
adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA plus stock-based compensation expense.
●
Adjusted
EBITDA per basic and diluted share – Adjusted EBITDA allocated to common stock divided by the weighted average shares outstanding
and diluted shares outstanding.
We
use non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the business and believe that presenting non-GAAP measures provides useful information to
investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of our ongoing operations as well as useful metrics for monitoring
our performance and evaluating it against industry peers. The non-GAAP financial measures presented should be used in addition to, and
in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures.
Management strongly encourages investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single
financial measure in evaluating the Company.
The
non-GAAP measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:
EBITDA :
We report EBITDA as a non-GAAP metric by excluding the effect of net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization
from net income or loss because doing so makes internal comparisons to our historical operating results more consistent. In addition,
we believe providing an EBITDA calculation is a more useful comparison of our operating results to the operating results of our peers.
Stock-based
compensation expense : We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense from the non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP
adjusted EBITDA per basic and diluted share calculations. Although stock-based compensation expense is calculated in accordance with
current GAAP and constitutes an ongoing and recurring expense, such expense is excluded from non-GAAP results because it is not an expense
which generally requires cash settlement by NetSol, and therefore is not used by us to assess the profitability of our operations. We
also believe the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense provides a more useful comparison of our operating results to the operating
results of our peers.
Non-controlling
interest : We add back the non-controlling interest in calculating gross adjusted EBITDA and then subtract out the income taxes, depreciation
and amortization and net interest expense attributable to the non-controlling interest to arrive at a net adjusted EBITDA.

These loans will become due at different maturity dates as described in Note 13 of the financial statements. We are in compliance with
the covenants of the financial arrangements and there is no default, which may lead to early payment of these obligations. We anticipate
paying back all these obligations on their respective due dates from the respective Company’s own sources.
We
typically fund the cash requirements for our operations in the U.S. through our license, services, and subscription and support agreements,
intercompany charges for corporate services, and through the exercise of options and warrants. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately
$14.7 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, of which approximately $14.2 million is held by our foreign subsidiaries.
As of June 30, 2025, we had approximately $17.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, of which approximately $16.4
million is held by our foreign subsidiaries.
We
remain open to strategic relationships that would provide value-added benefits. The focus will remain on continuously improving cash
reserves internally and reducing reliance on external capital raises.
As
a growing company, we have ongoing capital expenditure needs based on our short-term and long-term business plans. Although our requirements
for capital expenses vary from time to time, for the next 12 months, we anticipate needing $1.5 million for APAC, the U.S. and Europe’s
new business development activities and infrastructure enhancements, which we expect to provide from current operations.

As

subsidiaries, they may have to repay their respective credit facilities.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our
condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared applying certain critical accounting policies. The SEC defines “critical
accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments.
Critical accounting policies require numerous estimates and strategic or economic assumptions that may prove inaccurate or subject to
variations and may significantly affect our reported results and financial position for the period or in future periods. Changes in underlying
factors, assumptions, or estimates in any of these areas could have a material impact on our future financial condition and results of
operations. Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and they conform to general practices in our industry.
We apply critical accounting policies consistently from period to period and intend that any change in methodology occur in an appropriate
manner. There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
