Executive Compensation.

retain, motivate and reward our executive officers who are responsible for our success;

and strengthen the mutual interests of our executive officers, our company and our stockholders;

compensation that reflects our financial and operational performance, while at the same time providing the opportunity for our executive

officers to earn above-targeted total compensation for exceptional individual and company performance;

total compensation to each executive officer that is internally equitable, competitive and influenced by company and individual performance.

2023, compensation of our executive officers was comprised of base salary, non-equity incentives in the form of cash bonuses, and long-term

equity incentives.

The cash bonus amounts paid to our executive officers during 2023, as set forth below in “– Summary Compensation

Table,” were approved by our Compensation Committee and were based on a variety of factors regarding our performance during 2023.

and long-term financial and business goals;

ensure that our executive compensation structure and total compensation is fair, reasonable and competitive in the marketplace so

that we can attract and retain highly qualified personnel in key positions;

role and responsibilities.

these objectives.

officer would not be eligible for a performance award of 25% of base salary as outlined in the table below.

Our Compensation Committee may act through subcommittees or, with respect

to awards granted to individuals who are not subject to the reporting and other provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and who

are not members of our board of directors or the board of directors of our Affiliates (as defined by the 2016 Plan), delegate to one

or more officers all or part of its duties with respect to such awards.

Our Compensation Committee may, at its discretion, accelerate

the time at which any award may be exercised, become transferable or nonforfeitable or become earned and settled including without limitation

a voluntary termination of employment or service for good reason) or (ii) in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the 2016

Under the 2016 Plan, we may issue a maximum aggregate of 1,754,385 shares of common stock, all of which may be issued pursuant

to Options, SARs, Restricted Stock Awards, RSUs, Incentive Awards, Stock-Based Awards or Dividend Equivalents.

Each share issued in connection

with an award will reduce the number of shares available under the 2016 Plan by one, and each share covered under a SAR will reduce the

number of shares available under the 2016 Plan by one, even though the share is not actually issued upon settlement of the SAR.

relating to awards that are terminated by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise without issuance of shares of common stock,

settled in cash in lieu of shares, or exchanged prior to the issuance of shares for awards not involving shares, will again be available

for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

Shares not issued as a result of net settlement of an award, tendered or withheld to pay the exercise

price, purchase price or withholding taxes of an award or shares purchased on the open market with the proceeds of the exercise price

of an award will not again be available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

In any calendar year, no participant may be granted awards that relate to more than 350,877 shares of our common stock.

non-employee director during such calendar year in respect of the non-employee director’s service as a member of the board during

such year, exceeds $500 in total value (calculating the value of any such awards based on the grant date fair value of such awards for

financial accounting purposes).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the board may make exceptions to the foregoing limit (up to twice such

limit) for a non-executive chair of the board or, in extraordinary circumstances, for other individual non-employee directors, as the

board may determine, provided that the non-employee director, receiving such awards may not participate in the decision to make such

termination of employment or service for good reason) or (ii) in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the 2016 Plan).

Restricted Stock Awards, RSUs, Incentive Awards, Stock-Based Awards or Dividend Equivalents.

Each share issued in connection with an award

will reduce the number of shares available under the 2016 Plan by one, and each share covered under a SAR will reduce the number of shares

available under the 2016 Plan by one, even though the share is not actually issued upon settlement of the SAR.

Shares relating to awards

that are terminated by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise without issuance of shares of common stock, settled in cash in

lieu of shares, or exchanged prior to the issuance of shares for awards not involving shares, will again be available for issuance under

the 2016 Plan.

Shares not issued as a result of net settlement of an award, tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price, purchase price

or withholding taxes of an award or shares purchased on the open market with the proceeds of the exercise price of an award will not again

be available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

Award Limits .

In any calendar

year, no participant may be granted awards that relate to more than 50,125 shares of our common stock.

For these purposes, an Option and

its corresponding SAR will be counted as a single award.

For any Cash Awards that are intended to constitute annual incentive awards,

the maximum amount payable to any one participant with respect to any 12-month period is $5,000.

Award limits that are expressed as a

number of shares are subject to the adjustment provisions of the 2016 Plan as described below.

be granted awards during any single calendar year that, taken together with any cash fees paid to such non-employee director during such

calendar year in respect of the non-employee director’s service as a member of the board during such year, exceeds $500 in total

value (calculating the value of any such awards based on the grant date fair value of such awards for financial accounting purposes).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the board may make exceptions to the foregoing limit (up to twice such limit) for a non-executive chair

of the board or, in extraordinary circumstances, for other individual non-employee directors, as the board may determine, provided that

the non-employee director, receiving such awards may not participate in the decision to make such awards.

Written Agreements .

awards granted under the 2016 Plan will be governed by separate written agreements between the participants and us.

The written agreements

will specify the terms of the particular awards.

Transferability.

Generally, an award is non-transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of the participant

to whom the award is granted, the award may only be exercised by, or payable to, the participant.

However, the Compensation Committee

may provide that awards, other than ISOs or a Corresponding SAR (as defined in the 2016 Plan) that is related to an ISO, may be transferred

by a participant to immediate family members or trust or other entities on behalf of the Participant and/or family members for charitable

Any such transfer will be permitted only if (i) the participant does not receive any consideration for the transfer and (ii)

the Compensation Committee expressly approves the transfer.

The holder of the transferred award will be bound by the same terms and conditions

that governed the award during the period that it was held by the participant, except that such transferee may only transfer the award

by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

Award Period.

No award shall be exercisable or become vested or payable more than ten years after the date of grant.

With Applicable Law.

No award shall be exercisable, vested or payable except in compliance with all applicable federal and state

laws and regulations (including, without limitation, tax and securities laws), any listing agreement with any stock exchange to which

we are a party, and the rules of all domestic stock exchanges on which our shares may be listed.

The exercise or purchase price of an award, and any taxes required to be withheld with respect to an award, may be paid in cash or,

if the written agreement so provides, the Compensation Committee may allow a participant to pay all or part of the exercise or purchase

price, and any required withholding taxes, by tendering shares of common stock, through a broker-assisted cashless exercise, by means

of “net exercise” procedure, or any other specified medium of payment.

No participant shall have any rights as our stockholder as a result of issuance of an award until the award is settled by

the issuance of common stock (other than a Restricted Stock Award or RSUs for which certain stockholder rights may be granted).

Awards do not confer upon any individual any right to continue in our employ or service or in the employ or service of

our Affiliates.

All rights to any award that a participant has will be immediately forfeited if the participant is discharged from employment

or service for “Cause” (as defined in the 2016 Plan).

Both ISOs and NQSOs may be granted under the 2016 Plan.

Our Compensation Committee will determine the eligible individuals to whom grants

of Options will be made, the number of shares subject to each option, the exercise price per share, the time or times at which the option

may be exercised, whether any performance or other conditions must be satisfied before a participant may exercise an option, the method

of payment by the participant, the method of delivery of shares to a participant, whether the Option is an ISO or a NQSO, and all other

terms and conditions of the award.

However, the exercise price of an Option may not be less than the fair market value of a share of

common stock on the date the Option is granted.

No participant may be granted ISOs that are first exercisable in any calendar year for

shares of common stock having an aggregate fair value (determined on the date of grant) that exceeds $100,000.

granted to a participant who is a Ten Percent Shareholder (as defined in the 2016 Plan), the exercise price per share may not be less

than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date the Option is granted.

At the Compensation Committee’s discretion,

an Option may be granted with or without a Corresponding SAR (as defined below).

A SAR entitles the participant to receive, upon exercise, the excess of the fair market value on that date of each share of common stock

subject to the exercised portion of the SAR over the fair market value of each such share on the date of the grant of the SAR.

A SAR granted in tandem with an Option is called a Corresponding SAR and entitles the

participant to exercise the Option or the SAR, at which time the other tandem award expires with respect to the number of shares being

year for shares of common stock having an aggregate fair market value (determined on the date of grant) that exceeds $100,000.

Our Compensation Committee will determine the eligible individuals to whom grants of Options

will be made, the number of shares subject to each option, the exercise price per share, the time or times at which the option may be

exercised, whether any performance or other conditions must be satisfied before a participant may exercise an option, the method of payment

by the participant, the method of delivery of shares to a participant, whether the Option is an ISO or a NQSO, and all other terms and

conditions of the award.

However, the exercise price of an Option may not be less than the fair market value of a share of common stock

on the date the Option is granted.

No participant may be granted ISOs that are first exercisable in any calendar year for shares of common

stock having an aggregate fair value (determined on the date of grant) that exceeds $100,000.

With respect to an ISO granted to a participant

who is a Ten Percent Shareholder (as defined in the 2016 Plan), the exercise price per share may not be less than 110% of the fair market

value of the common stock on the date the Option is granted.

At the Compensation Committee’s discretion, an Option may be granted

with or without a Corresponding SAR (as defined below).

A SAR entitles the

participant to receive, upon exercise, the excess of the fair market value on that date of each share of common stock subject to the exercised

portion of the SAR over the fair market value of each such share on the date of the grant of the SAR.

A SAR can be granted alone or in

tandem with an Option.

A SAR granted in tandem with an Option is called a Corresponding SAR and entitles the participant to exercise the

Option or the SAR, at which time the other tandem award expires with respect to the number of shares being exercised.

The Compensation

Committee has the authority to determine the eligible individuals to whom grants will be made and all other terms and conditions of the

Incentive Award.

Stock-Based Awards may be denominated or payable in, valued by reference to or otherwise based on shares of common stock,

including awards convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock (or the cash value thereof) and common stock purchase rights

and awards valued by reference to the fair market value of the common stock.

The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine

the eligible individuals to whom grants will be made and all other terms and conditions of Stock-Based Awards.

However, the purchase

price for the common stock under any Stock-Based Award in the nature of a purchase right may not be less than the fair market value of

a share of common stock as of the date the award is granted.

Cash awards, as an element of or supplement to any other award under the

2016 Plan, may also be granted.

Compensation Committee is authorized under the 2016 Plan to grant shares of common stock as a bonus, or to grant shares of common stock

or other awards in lieu of any of our obligations or of our affiliates to pay cash or to deliver other property under the 2016 Plan or

under any other of our plans or compensatory arrangements or any of our affiliates.

Equivalents .

Our Compensation Committee may also grant Dividend Equivalents under the 2016 Plan.

A Dividend Equivalent is an award

that entitles the participant to receive cash, shares of common stock, other awards or other property equal in value to all or a specified

portion of dividends paid with respect to shares of our common stock.

The Compensation Committee is authorized to determine the eligible

individuals to whom grants will be made and all other terms and conditions of the Dividend Equivalents.

However, no Dividend Equivalents

may be awarded with an Option, SAR or Stock-Based Award in the nature of purchase rights.

Cash Awards will also be authorized under the 2016 Plan.

Cash Awards may be granted as an element of or a supplement to any

other award under the 2016 Plan or as a stand-alone Cash Award.

The Compensation Committee will determine the terms and conditions of

any such Cash Awards.

Our Compensation Committee has the discretion to establish objectively determinable performance conditions for when awards

will become vested, exercisable and payable.

These performance conditions may be based on one or any combination of metrics related to

our financial, market or business performance.

The form of the performance conditions also may be measured on a company, affiliate, division,

business unit or geographic basis, individually, alternatively or in any combination, subset or component thereof.

Performance goals

may reflect absolute entity performance or a relative comparison of entity performance to the performance of a peer group of entities

or other external measure of the selected performance conditions.

Profits, earnings and revenues used for any performance condition measurement

may exclude any extraordinary or nonrecurring items.

The performance conditions may, but need not, be based upon an increase or positive

result under the aforementioned business criteria and could include, for example and not by way of limitation, maintaining the status

quo or limiting the economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to the specific business criteria).

An award that is intended

to become exercisable, vested or payable on the achievement of performance conditions means that the award will not become exercisable,

vested or payable solely on mere continued employment or service.

However, such an award, in addition to performance conditions, may

be subject to continued employment or service by the participant.

The performance conditions may include any or any combination of the

performance conditions will be measured for the purpose of determining when an award will become vested, exercisable or payable.

Compensation Committee has the authority to adjust goals and awards in the manner set forth in the 2016 Plan.

In the event of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the 2016 Plan) and, with respect to awards that are

subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and such awards, 409A Awards, only to the extent

permitted by Section 409A of the Code, our Compensation Committee in its discretion may, on a participant-by-participant basis (a) accelerate

the vesting of all unvested and unexercised Options, SARs or Stock-Based Awards in the nature of purchase rights and/or terminate such

awards, without any payment therefore, immediately prior to the date of any such transaction after giving the participant at least seven

days written notice of such actions;

Committee is authorized to determine the eligible individuals to whom grants of SARs will be made, the number of shares of common stock

covered by the grant, the time or times at which a SAR may be exercised and all other terms and conditions of the SAR.

Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding

the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant

Audit Matters

critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements

that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are

material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.

communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole,

and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the

accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

of December 31, 2023, the Company’s inventories totaled $16.5 million.

As explained in Note 1 to the financial statements, inventories

are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis.

Company assesses inventory at each reporting date in order to assert that it is recorded at net realizable value.

In determining net

realizable value, management considers historical usage, forecasted demand in relation to inventory on hand, market conditions, and other

identified management’s assessment of net realizable value of inventory as a critical audit matter because the determination of

excess and obsolete inventory and lower of cost or net realizable value is judgmental and considers a number of factors that are affected

by market and economic conditions, such as estimating future customer demand, and industry supply and demand.

This required a high degree

of auditor judgment and increased auditor effort in auditing such assessments.

primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

evaluated the reasonableness of assumptions used by management in forming the forecasted

inventory usage and future salability, and whether they were consistent with the historical

data and evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

developed an independent expectation of the net realizable value of inventory using historic inventory activity and compared our

independent expectation to the amount recorded in the financial statements.

Concern Analysis

described in Note 1 to the financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a net loss of $6.5 million,

used cash in operations of $3.4 million, and at December 31, 2023, had an accumulated deficit of $25.7 million.

The conditions described

in Note 1 raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year

from the date of issuance of the financial statements.

identified the going concern analysis and evaluation of the related disclosures as a critical audit matter because of the significant

judgements and assumptions made by management in developing its cash flow forecast and the risk of bias in management’s judgments

and assumptions in estimating these cash flows.

There was a high degree of auditor judgement and subjectivity in performing our procedures

to evaluate the reasonableness of the cash flow forecast.

primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

obtained management’s cash flow forecast and evaluated the reasonableness of the cash

flow forecast by comparing it to historical operating results, considering management’s

ability to accurately forecast and perform sensitivity analysis on revenue, cash expenditures and

performed sensitivity analyses on the projected revenue and operating margins used in the Company’s cash flow forecast to

evaluate the impact on the conclusions reached by management.

assessed the appropriateness and sufficiency of the disclosures included within the financial statements relating to liquidity and

going concern and compared to other audit evidence obtained to determine whether such information is consistent with the

Company’s disclosures.

have served as the Company’s auditor since 2016.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess

the risks of material misstatement of the 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 financial statements.

Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating

the overall presentation of the financial statements.

Inventory Valuation

As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s inventories

totaled $12.9 million.

As explained in Note 1 to the financial statements, inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable

value, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis.

The Company assesses inventory at each reporting date

in order to assert that it is recorded at net realizable value.

Going Concern

accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern.

In accordance

with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern , the Company’s management has evaluated

whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability

to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying financial statements were issued.

For the year ended December

31, 2023, the Company recorded a net loss of $ 6,548

and used cash in operations of $ 3,430 .

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that

the financial statements are issued.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is

unable to continue as a going concern.

of December 31, 2023, the Company had a cash balance of $ 549 ,

with borrowing capacity of $ 376 ,

and a working capital of $ 11,775 .

Historically,

the Company has financed its operations through public and private sales of common stock, issuance of term loans and credit lines from

financial institutions, and cash generated from operations.

As we seek additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that

such financing would be available to us on favorable terms or at all.

Our ability to obtain additional financing in the debt and equity

capital markets is subject to several factors, including market and economic conditions, our performance and investor sentiment with

respect to us and our industry.

The Company has taken action to improve its margins, and is continuing to build a strong backlog, and

expects to continue investing in product development and sales and marketing activities.

The long-term continuation of the Company’s

business plan is dependent upon the generation of sufficient revenues from its products to offset expenses.

In the event that the Company

does not generate sufficient cash flows from operations and is unable to obtain funding, the Company will be forced to delay, reduce,

or eliminate some or all of its discretionary spending, which could adversely affect the Company’s business prospects, ability

to meet long-term liquidity needs or ability to continue operations.

aftermath of the pandemic has had a significant negative impact on our overall operations including revenues, productivity, gross margins

and liquidity.

The pandemic has resulted in labor shortages, disruptions in the chain of supply, and higher material costs.

that Covid-19 will be an ongoing challenge for years to come and to adapt will require us to further globalize our vendors, engineering,

and customers.

The Company’s business is directly dependent upon, and correlates closely with, the marketing levels and ongoing

business activities of its existing customers and suppliers.

The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s business activities

and capital raising efforts will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

continuing impact of higher inflation, the actions by the Federal Reserve to address inflation, most notably sustained increases in interest

rates, and rising energy prices create uncertainty about the future economic environment which will continue to evolve and, we believe,

has impacted the Company’s business in 2023 and may continue to impact its business in 2024.

The implications of higher government

deficits and debt, tighter monetary policy, and potentially higher long-term interest rates may drive a higher cost of capital for the

business and an increase in the Company’s operating expenses.

preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 financial statements and the

reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

Material estimates relate to the assumptions made in determining

estimates for credit loss reserves for accounts receivable, assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, impairment testing of recorded long-term assets, the realizability of deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance, accruals for warranty reserves, accruals for potential liabilities, assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity.

Customers (“ASC 606”).

The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services

to customers at the amount expected to be collected.

ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when

considering the terms of contract(s), which includes (1) identifying the contract(s) or agreement(s) with a customer, (2) identifying

the Company’s performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction

price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

The accompanying financial statements

have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification

(“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern , the Company’s management has evaluated whether there are conditions and events,

considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one

year after the date the accompanying financial statements were issued.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a net

loss of $ 4,677 and used cash in operating activities of $ 536 .

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability

to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued.

The financial statements do not include

any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company

had a cash balance of $ 498 , with borrowing capacity of $ 654 , and a working capital of $ 7,037 .

Historically, the Company has financed its

operations through public and private sales of common stock, issuance of term loans and credit lines from financial institutions, and

cash generated from operations.

As we seek additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that such financing would be available

to us on favorable terms or at all.

Our ability to obtain additional financing in the debt and equity capital markets is subject to several

factors, including market and economic conditions, our performance and investor sentiment with respect to us and our industry.

has taken action to improve its margins, and is continuing to build a strong backlog, and expects to continue investing in product development

and sales and marketing activities.

The long-term continuation of the Company’s business plan is dependent upon the generation of

sufficient revenues from its products to offset expenses.

In the event that the Company does not generate sufficient cash flows from operations

and is unable to obtain funding, the Company will be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some or all of its discretionary spending,

which could adversely affect the Company’s business prospects, ability to meet long-term liquidity needs or ability to continue

Reverse stock split

On November 18, 2024, the Company filed a Certificate

of Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware to effect a 1:7 reverse stock split of the shares

of the Company’s common stock either issued and outstanding or held by the Company as treasury stock.

The amendment was authorized

by the Company’s stockholders on November 11, 2024, and was effective on November 18, 2024.

No fractional shares were issued in

connection with the reverse stock split, with all fractional shares being rounded up to the next whole share.

All share and per share

amounts and information presented herein have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented.

The continuing

impact of higher inflation, the actions by the Federal Reserve to address inflation, most notably sustained increases in interest rates,

and rising energy prices create uncertainty about the future economic environment which will continue to evolve and, we believe, has impacted

the Company’s business in 2024 and may continue to impact its business in 2025.

The implications of higher government deficits and

debt, tighter monetary policy, and potentially higher long-term interest rates may drive a higher cost of capital for the business and

an increase in the Company’s operating expenses.

The preparation of financial statements

in conformity with GAAP 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses

during the reporting period.

Material estimates relate to the assumptions made in determining estimates for credit loss reserves for accounts

receivable, assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, impairment testing of recorded long-term assets, accruals for warranty reserves, accruals for potential liabilities, assumptions

made in valuing stock instruments issued for services, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity.

Revenue Recognition

recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers

at the amount expected to be collected.

ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering

the terms of contract(s), which includes (1) identifying the contract(s) or agreement(s) with a customer, (2) identifying the Company’s

performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the

separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.

Tax benefits from an uncertain

tax position are recognized only if it more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities

based on technical merits of the position.

The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based

on the largest benefit that has greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution.

Deferred tax assets and

Basic net income (loss) per share

is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.

earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of

common stock outstanding plus the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential

shares of common stock had been issued using the treasury stock method.

Potential shares of common stock are excluded from the computation

when their effect is antidilutive.

The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted net income per share

if the exercise prices were lower than the average fair market value of shares of common stock during the reporting period.

common stock were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair

The Company uses various inputs

in determining the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities.

Financial assets recorded at fair value in the balance sheets are

categorized by the level of objectivity associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.

Authoritative guidance provided

by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) defines the following levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity

associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these financial assets:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.

The carrying amounts of financial

assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2016, the FASB issued

2016-13, Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”).

The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables.

The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model, under which companies

will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses.

Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect

adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.

As a smaller reporting company, ASU 2016-13 became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-03 effective January 1, 2023, and there was no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280):

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure , which

is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense

categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit

The update also requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be provided in interim

periods and for entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, Segment Reporting ,

including the significant segment expense disclosures.

This standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2024 and interim

periods beginning in fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted.

The updates required by this standard should be applied retrospectively

to all periods presented in the financial statements.

The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its results

of operations, financial position or cash flows.

December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740):

to Income Tax Disclosures.

ASU 2023-09 requires that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in

the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect

of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable

statutory income tax rate).

ASU 2023-99 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption

The Company does not expect that the guidance will have a material impact on our financial statements or notes
