+Added: Controls and Procedures
+Added: Our management, with the
+Added: participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness
+Added: of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
+Added: (the “Exchange Act”), as of March 31, 2025.
+Added: Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance
+Added: that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
+Added: our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and is recorded, processed,

+Added: Based on this evaluation, and as a result
+Added: of the material weakness described below, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective
+Added: as of March 31, 2025.
In light of this determination, our management has performed additional analyses, reconciliations, and other post-closing
−Removed: procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the
−Removed: unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly
−Removed: Report on Form 10-Q fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
−Removed: periods presented in conformity with U.S.
−Removed: Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
−Removed: material weakness, as defined in the standards established by Sarbanes-Oxley, is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in
−Removed: internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or
−Removed: unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
−Removed: control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
−Removed: and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S.
−Removed: The following material weaknesses in our internal control over
−Removed: financial reporting were present as of December 31, 2023, and continued to exist as of September 30, 2024:
−Removed: Company did not maintain effective controls over the revenue recognition of over-time contracts and associated costs.
−Removed: The Company’s
−Removed: underlying estimates of total labor hours required to complete over-time contracts were materially different from the actual labor
−Removed: hours required, which was determined to represent an error, and, as a result, the percentage of completion used to recognize revenue
−Removed: was materially different from the percentage of completion using actual labor hours incurred.
−Removed: Additionally, the Company did not properly
−Removed: account for recognition of costs incurred by contract.
−Removed: This material weakness resulted in the restatement of the Company’s
−Removed: consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as its interim consolidated financial statements
−Removed: for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2023, the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, and 2023 and the three and nine
−Removed: months ended September 30, 2022, and 2023.
−Removed: Company did not design and maintain effective controls over the accounting for inventory and related cost of sales, primarily due
−Removed: to the lack of an automated tracking system and the manual nature of its current processes and controls surrounding inventory.
−Removed: Specifically,
−Removed: we did not design and maintain effective controls over (1) complete and accurate inventory costing, including recording inventoriable
−Removed: costs at the lower of cost and net realizable value, (2) cycle count procedures and inventory system changes, which occur without
−Removed: proper review and documentation and (3) proper segregation of duties.
−Removed: Company has a lack of sufficient accounting personnel with the necessary skills, knowledge, and expertise.
−Removed: This deficiency impacts
−Removed: our ability to ensure appropriate segregation of duties, and to accurately and timely close, consolidate and prepare financial statements
−Removed: as required to maintain compliance with reporting deadlines under applicable SEC regulations.
−Removed: Plan to Remediate the Material Weaknesses
−Removed: Company is implementing enhancements to its internal controls to remediate the identified material weaknesses in its internal control
+Added: procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the unaudited
+Added: condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly
+Added: state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity
+Added: Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial
+Added: A material weakness, as defined in the standards established
+Added: by Sarbanes-Oxley, is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is
+Added: a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements will
+Added: not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: Internal control over financial reporting is a process
+Added: designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
+Added: in accordance with U.S.
+Added: In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025,
+Added: we determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the lack of sufficient accounting
+Added: personnel and, as a result, the Company is unable to maintain proper segregation of duties.
+Added: The material weakness in our internal control
+Added: over financial reporting was present as of December 31, 2024, and continued to exist as of March 31, 2025.
+Added: Management’s Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness
+Added: The Company is implementing enhancements to its internal controls to remediate
+Added: the identified material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: Specifically, the Company:
+Added: has engaged external third parties for assistance as needed;
+Added: has contracted to implement a new ERP system allowing for systemic enforcement of segregation of duties rules;
+Added: will be enhancing, designing and implementing process-level and general information technology controls relevant to the financial reporting process within the new ERP system.
+Added: Additionally, the Company plans to hire additional accounting and finance
+Added: personnel with the requisite skills, knowledge and expertise to address identified control deficiencies.
+Added: The Company is committed to maintaining a strong internal
+Added: control environment and believes these remediation efforts will represent significant improvements in its controls over the control environment.
+Added: These steps will take time to be fully implemented and confirmed to be effective and sustainable.
+Added: Additional controls may also be required
+Added: While the Company believes that these efforts will improve its internal control over financial reporting, the Company will
+Added: not be able to conclude whether the steps the Company is taking will remediate the material weakness in internal control over financial
+Added: reporting until a sufficient period of time has passed to allow management to test the design and operational effectiveness of the new
+Added: and enhanced controls.
+Added: Until the remediation steps set forth above are fully implemented and tested, the material weakness described above
+Added: will continue to exist.

−Removed: and sustainable.
−Removed: Additional controls may also be required over time.
−Removed: While the Company believes that these efforts will improve its internal
−Removed: control over financial reporting, the Company will not be able to conclude whether the steps the Company is taking will remediate the
