NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October
31, 2022 and 2021
(unaudited)
Our
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of
the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information
included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial information included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 of Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") on July 27, 2022.
Note 1 – The Business
Red
Cat Holdings (“Red Cat” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in February 1984. Since April 2016, the
Company’s primary business has been to provide products, services and solutions to the drone industry which it presently does through
its four wholly owned subsidiaries. Teal Drones is a leader in commercial and government Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) technology. Fat
Shark is a provider of First Person View (FPV) video goggles to the drone industry. Rotor Riot sells FPV drones and equipment to the
consumer marketplace through its digital storefront located at www.rotorriot.com. Skypersonic provides software and hardware solutions
that enable drones to complete inspection services in locations where GPS (global positioning systems) is not available, yet still record
and transmit data even while being operated from thousands of miles away.
Corporate
developments during the two years ended October 31, 2022 include:
A.
Fat
Shark Acquisition
On
September 30, 2020, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (“Share Purchase Agreement”) with Greg French (“French”),
the founder and sole shareholder of Fat Shark Holdings (“Fat Shark”), to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares
of Fat Shark and its subsidiaries. The transaction closed on November 2, 2020 and was valued at $ 8,354,076 based on (i) the issuance
of 5,227,273
shares of common stock with a value of $ 6,351,076 on the date of closing (ii) a senior secured promissory note in the original
principal amount of $ 1,753,000 , and (iii) a cash payment of $ 250,000 . The Share Purchase Agreement included indemnification provisions,
a two year non-compete agreement, and registration rights for the shares issued in the transaction.
A
summary of the purchase price and its related allocation was as follows:

The
Company engaged a valuation services firm to value the intangible assets acquired and the purchase price allocation is now complete.
Intangible assets included proprietary technology and a non-compete agreement which are being amortized over 5 and 3 years, respectively.
The carrying value of brand name is not being amortized but is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end. The excess of the
purchase price above the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill which is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end.
B.
Skypersonic

In
May 2021, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Skypersonic, Inc. (“Skypersonic”) in exchange for $ 3,000,000
of our common stock. The number of shares issuable was based on the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of our common stock
for the 20 trading days ending May 7, 2021. Based on a VWAP of $4.0154, the Company issued 747,124
shares. In addition, the Company also

based on the closing price of our common stock of $ 3.84
on May 7, 2021. Prior to the closing, the Company provided $ 75,000
to Skypersonic
to fund its operating costs. This amount was capitalized as part of the purchase price. In October 2021, the Company and Skypersonic
agreed to a reduction in the purchase price of $ 601,622
which resulted in the cancellation of 149,829
shares held in escrow.

Teal
Drones Acquisition
On
August 31, 2021, the Company closed the acquisition of Teal Drones Inc., (“Teal”). Under the terms of the agreement, the
base purchase price of $ 14,000,000 was
reduced by $ 1,670,294 of debt assumed by the Company, as well as a working capital deficit adjustment
of $ 1,456,953 . Based on the net amount payable of $ 10,872,753 , and a VWAP of $2.908 for the twenty trading days ending August 31, 2022,
the Company issued
3,738,911 of common stock. For accounting purposes, the shares were valued at $ 10,431,562 based on the closing price
of our common stock of $ 2.79 on August 31, 2021. In December 2021, the Company and Teal agreed to a reduction in the purchase price of $ 438,058
which resulted in the cancellation of 150,639 shares held in escrow. The Stock Consideration may be increased if Teal attains
certain revenue levels in the 24-month period following the closing. The additional consideration begins at $4 million if sales total at least $18 million and ends at $16 million if sales
total $36 million.

On
August 31, 2021, Teal entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Decathlon Alpha IV, L.P. (“DA4”)
(the “Loan Agreement”) in the amount of $ 1,670,294 (the “Loan”), representing the outstanding principal amount
previously due and owing by Teal to DA4. Interest on the Loan accrues at a rate of ten ( 10 %) percent per annum. Principal and interest
is payable in monthly installments to $ 49,275 until maturity on December 31, 2024. The Company assumed the Loan Agreement in connection
with the acquisition.

The
acquisition of Skypersonic was completed on May 7, 2021 and its activities during the period from May 1, 2021 to May 7, 2021 were immaterial
to the consolidated pro forma results.
The unaudited pro forma financial information has been compiled in a manner consistent with the Company's accounting policies,
and includes transaction costs, amortization of the acquired intangible assets, and other expenses directly related to each respective
acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on estimates and assumptions which the Company believes are
reasonable and are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been realized had the acquisitions closed on the dates indicated
in the tables, nor are they indicative of results of operations that may occur in the future.
9
Other
information related to the Company’s acquisitions include:
The
purchase price allocation has been finalized for each acquisition based on the report from the valuation services firm engaged to
assist in the identification and valuation of intangible assets acquired.
The
fair value of shares issued by the Company as part of the consideration paid is normally based on the volume weighted average price
of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days prior to the closing of the transaction. For accounting purposes, the
shares issued are valued based on the closing stock price on the date that the transaction closes.
Goodwill
for Rotor Riot relates to its strong social media presence including more than 200,000 YouTube subscribers. Goodwill for Fat Shark
is attributable to its relationship with manufacturing sources in China and the potential to integrate its goggle technologies with
the Teal drone. Goodwill for Skypersonic relates to the future customers expected to leverage its “Fly Anywhere”
technologies in a wide range of commercial environments. Goodwill for Teal is ascribed to its existing relationship with several
U.S. government agencies including its classification as an approved vendor.
The
Company expects that the Goodwill recognized in each transaction will be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has reported
net losses since its inception and is presently unable to determine when and if the tax benefit of this deduction will be realized.
Note
2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Accounting – The financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain prior period amounts have been restated to conform to the current year
presentation.
Principles
of Consolidation – Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned operating subsidiaries, which
consist of Teal Drones, Fat Shark, Rotor Riot, and Skypersonic. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use
of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates reflected in these financial statements include those used to (i) determine stock-based compensation, (ii) complete
purchase price accounting for acquisitions, and (iii) accounting for derivatives.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents – At October 31, 2022, we had cash of $1,582,751 in multiple commercial banks and financial services companies.
We have not experienced any loss on these cash balances and believe they are not exposed to any significant credit risk.
Marketable
Securities – Our marketable securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale securities. These securities
are primarily invested in corporate bonds and are readily saleable, and therefore, we have classified them as short term. Our available-for-sale
securities are carried at fair value with any unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of comprehensive income (loss). Once
realized, any gains or losses are recognized in the statement of operations.
We
have elected to present interest income receivable separately from marketable securities on our consolidated balance sheets. Accrued
interest receivable was $312,931 and $385,730 as of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, respectively, and was included in other current
assets. We did not write off any accrued interest receivable during the six months ended October 31, 2022 and 2021.
Accounts
Receivable, net – Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount less allowances for doubtful accounts. The Company's
estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a multitude of factors, including historical bad debt levels for its customer
base, past experience with a specific customer, the economic environment, and other factors. Accounts receivable balances are written
off against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected.
10
Inventories – Inventories,
which consist of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and are
measured using the first-in, first-out method. Cost components include direct materials and direct labor, as well as in-bound freight.
At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence.
Goodwill
– Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquisition over the estimated fair value of identifiable net
assets acquired. The measurement period for the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed ends as soon as information on the
facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date becomes known, not to exceed 12 months. Adjustments in a purchase price
allocation may require a change in the amounts allocated to goodwill during the periods in which an adjustment is determined.
We
perform an impairment test at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indications of impairment arise. We have two business
segments and evaluate goodwill for impairment based on an evaluation of the fair value of each business segment individually.
Property
and equipment – Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and depreciated using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The estimated useful lives of our property and equipment are generally: (i) furniture
and fixtures - seven years, (ii) equipment and related - two to five years, and (iii) leasehold improvements - 15 years.
Leases
– Effective August 1, 2021, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842 titled “Leases” which
requires the recognition of assets and liabilities associated with lease agreements. The Company adopted ASC 842 on a modified retrospective
transition basis which means that it did not restate financial information for any periods prior to August 1, 2021. Upon adoption, the
Company recognized a lease liability obligation of $796,976 and a right-of-use asset for the same amount.
The
Company determines if a contract is a lease or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease liabilities are measured, on each
reporting date, based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the remaining lease term. The Company's leases
do not provide an implicit rate. Therefore, the Company uses an effective discount rate of 12% based on its last debt financing. Operating
lease assets are measured by adjusting the lease liability for lease incentives, initial direct costs incurred and asset impairments.
Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term with the operating lease asset reduced
by the amount of the expense. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate a lease when they are reasonably certain to occur.
Fair
Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities, and Related Disclosures – The fair value measurements
and disclosure guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. In accordance with this guidance, the Company has categorized its recurring basis financial assets and liabilities
into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
The
fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and
the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair
value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has
been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific
to the asset or liability.
The
guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level
1 : Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level
2 : Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices
for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated
by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level
3 : Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported
by little or no market data.
11
Disclosures
for Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The
Company's financial instruments mainly consist of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt. The
carrying amounts of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current debt approximates fair value due
to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Convertible
Securities and Derivatives
When
the Company issues convertible debt or equity instruments that contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and
accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds from the convertible host instruments are first allocated to the bifurcated derivative
instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the convertible instruments themselves, resulting in those
instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value but no lower than zero. Any excess amount is recognized as a derivative
expense.
Derivative
Liabilities
The
Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded
derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as liabilities on the Company's balance sheet. The Company
measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations
during the period of change.
In
October 2020 and January 2021, the Company entered into convertible note agreements which included provisions under which the conversion
price was equal to the lesser of an initial stated amount or the conversion price of a future offering. This variable conversion feature
was recognized as a derivative. Both financings included the issuance of warrants which contained similar variable conversion features.
The Company values these convertible notes and warrants using the multinomial lattice method that values the derivative liability based
on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the
liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.
Revenue
Recognition – The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”,
issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). This standard includes a comprehensive evaluation of factors
to be considered regarding revenue recognition including (i) identifying the promised goods, (ii) evaluating performance obligations,
(iii) measuring the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations if there are multiple components,
and (v) recognizing revenue as each obligation is satisfied. The Company’s revenue transactions include a single component,
specifically, the shipment of goods to customers as orders are fulfilled. The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment. The timing of
the shipment of orders can vary considerably depending upon whether an order is for an item normally maintained in inventory or an order
that requires assembly or unique parts. Customer deposits totaled $123,308 and $437,930 at October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, respectively.
Research
and Development – Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses
associated with product development. Research and development expenses also include third-party development and programming costs, as
well as a proportionate share of overhead costs such as rent. Costs related to software development are included
in research and development expense until technological feasibility is reached, which for our software products, is generally shortly
before the products are released to production. Once technological feasibility is reached, such costs are capitalized and amortized as
a cost of revenue over the estimated lives of the products.
Income
Taxes – Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method; whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary
differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences
between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements – Management does not believe that recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements,
if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
12
Foreign
Currency – The functional currency of our international subsidiary is the local currency. For that subsidiary, we translate
assets and liabilities to U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates, and average monthly exchange rates for revenues, costs, and expenses.
We record translation gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income.
Comprehensive
Loss – Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and other comprehensive loss. Other comprehensive loss refers to gains and losses
that are recorded as an element of stockholders' equity and are excluded from net loss. Our other comprehensive loss is comprised of
foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities. During the six months ended
October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, comprehensive loss was $218,133 higher and $1,591 lower than net loss, respectively, related to
unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities totaling $217,229 and $0, respectively, as well as by foreign currency translation
adjustments of negative $904 and positive $1,591.
Stock-Based
Compensation – For stock options, we use the estimated grant-date fair value method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic
718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Fair value is determined based on the Black-Scholes Model using inputs reflecting our estimates
of expected volatility, term and future dividends. We recognize forfeitures as they occur. For restricted stock, we determine the fair
value based on our stock price on the date of grant. For both stock options and restricted stock, we recognize compensation costs on
a straight-line basis over the service period which is the vesting term.
Basic
and Diluted Net Loss per Share – Basic and diluted net loss per share has been calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of
diluted net loss per share of common stock because they were anti-dilutive. The conversion or exercise of these common stock equivalents
would dilute earnings per share if we become profitable in the future.
Outstanding

Parties – Parties are considered to be related to us if they have control or significant influence, directly or indirectly,
over us, including key management personnel and members of the Board of Directors. Related Party transactions are disclosed in Note 19.
Segment
Reporting
Since
January 2020, we have acquired four separate businesses operating in various aspects of the drone industry. Following the most recent
acquisition, the Company focused on integrating and organizing its acquired businesses. These efforts included refining the establishment
of Enterprise and Consumer segments to sharpen the Company’s focus on the unique opportunities in each sector of the drone
industry. The Enterprise segment, which includes Teal Drones and Skypersonic, is focused on opportunities in the commercial sector, including
military. Enterprise is building the infrastructure to manage drone fleets, fly and provide services remotely, and navigate confined
industrial interior spaces and dangerous military environments. The Consumer segment, which includes Rotor Riot and Fat Shark, is focused
on enthusiasts and hobbyists which are expected to increase as drones become more visible in our daily lives. Effective May 1, 2022,
we began to manage our business operations through these business segments. The reportable segments were identified based on how our
chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is a committee comprised of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”),
Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), manages our business, makes resource
allocation and operating decisions, and evaluates operating performance. See “Note 20 - Segment Reporting”.

6 – Due From Related Party
In
January 2022, the Company determined that an employee had relocated in 2021 but their compensation had not been subject to the
income tax withholding required by the new jurisdiction. The amount subject to taxation included $ 155,624 of
cash compensation and $ 1,413,332 of
income associated with the vesting of restricted stock ("Stock Compensation"). In March 2022, the Company entered
into a note agreement (the "Note") with the employee in the amount of $ 510,323 ,
representing the estimated taxes owed by the employee related to the Stock Compensation. Under the terms of the Note, 104,166
shares of common stock with a fair value of $ 280,832 ,
which had vested during calendar 2021, were withheld by the Company and applied against the Note. The employee agreed not to
sell or transfer 110,983 shares
of common stock held at the Company's transfer agent until the Note was repaid. In addition, the employee has 20,833 shares
of restricted stock vesting monthly in calendar 2022, of which 3,000
shares will be withheld with the fair value of those shares applied against the Note. Any shares issued to the employee in
2022 will be held at the transfer agent until the Note is repaid in full. The Note matures on December 31, 2022. The
Company filed amended payroll tax returns on March 16, 2022. In March and April 2022, the Company made payments to the relevant tax
authorities totaling $ 712,646 representing
$ 510,323
owed by the employee, $ 31,604
owed by the Company, and $ 170,719
of penalties and interest. The Note was repaid in full in August 2022.

12 – Convertible Notes
October
2020 Financing
In
October 2020, the Company closed a private offering of convertible promissory notes (the "2020 Notes") in the aggregate principal
amount of $ 600,000 . The 2020 Notes accrued interest at 12 % annually, had a two-year term, and were convertible into common stock at the
lower of $1.00 or a 25% discount of the price per share of Common Stock offered in a future, qualified offering. The financing also included
the issuance of warrants to purchase 399,998
shares of common stock. The Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at a price
equal to the lower of (1) $1.50 per share,
or (2) at a price equal to 75% of the price per share of the common stock offered in a future,
qualified offering.
The
Company determined that the provision associated with a potential reduction in the conversion price of the notes and the exercise price
of the warrant represented an embedded derivative financial liability. The derivative liability was initially valued at $ 728,587 using
a multinomial lattice model with $ 460,588 and $ 267,999
related to the derivative features of the notes and warrants, respectively. In
addition, $ 580,000 of the proceeds were applied as a debt discount to reduce the initial carrying value of the 2020 Notes to zero with
the remaining $ 20,000 applied against transaction fees. The excess of the liability over the net proceeds totaled $ 148,587 which was
recognized as a derivative expense in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2021.
As
of October 31, 2022, (a) the 2020 Notes were fully converted into common stock and the related derivative liability eliminated, and (b) 266,666 of the warrants were outstanding with a derivative liability of $ 330,493 .
January
2021 Financing
In
January 2021, the Company closed a private offering of convertible promissory notes (the "2021 Notes") in the aggregate principal
amount of $ 500,000 . The 2021 Notes accrued interest at 12 % annually, had a two-year term, and were convertible into shares of the Company's
common stock at the lower of $1.00 or a 25% discount of the price per share of Common Stock offered in a future, qualified offering.
The financing also included the issuance of warrants to purchase 675,000 shares of common stock. The Warrants are exercisable for a period
of five years at a price equal to the lower of (i) $1.50 per share, or (ii) a 25% discount to the price per share of common stock offered
in a future qualified offering.
The
Company determined that the provision associated with a potential reduction in the conversion price of the notes and the exercise price
of the warrant represented an embedded derivative financial liability. The derivative liability was initially valued at $ 4,981,701 using
a multinomial lattice model with $ 2,111,035 and
$ 2,870,666 related to the derivative features of the notes and warrants, respectively.
In addition, $ 500,000 was applied as a debt discount to reduce the initial carrying value of the 2021 notes to zero. The excess of the
liability over the net proceeds totaled $ 4,481,701 which was recognized as a derivative expense in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2021.
As
of October 31, 2022, (a) the 2021 Notes were fully converted into common stock and the related derivative liability eliminated, and (b) 540,000 of the warrants were outstanding with a derivative liability of $ 683,182 .
Note
13 – Income Taxes
Our
operating subsidiary, Red Cat Propware, Inc., is incorporated and based in Puerto Rico which is a commonwealth of the United States.
We are not subject to taxation by the United States as Puerto Rico has its own taxing authority. Since inception, we have incurred net
losses in each year of operations. Our current provision for the reporting periods presented in these financial statements consisted
of a tax benefit against which we applied a full valuation allowance, resulting in no current provision for income taxes. In addition,
there was no deferred provision for any of these reporting periods.
At
October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, we had accumulated deficits of approximately $ 37,500,000 and $ 27,500,000 , respectively. Deferred
tax assets related to the future benefit of these net operating losses for tax purposes totaled approximately $ 6,937,500 and $ 5,087,500 ,
respectively, calculated using the base Puerto Rico corporate tax rate of 18.5%. Currently, we focus on projected future taxable
income in evaluating whether it is more likely than not that these deferred assets will be realized. Based on the fact that we have not
generated an operating profit since inception, we have applied a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets at October
31, 2022 and April 30, 2022.

Note
18 – Derivatives
The
Company completed financings in October 2020 and January 2021 which included notes and warrants containing embedded features subject
to derivative accounting. See Note 12 for a full description of these financings. Both the notes and the warrants included provisions
which provided for a reduction in the conversion and exercise prices, respectively, if the Company completed a future qualified offering
at a lower price. These provisions represent embedded derivatives which are valued separately from the host instrument (meaning the notes
and warrants) and recognized as derivative liabilities on the Company's balance sheet. The Company initially measures these financial
instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period
of change. The Company also measures these financial instruments on the date of settlement (meaning when the note is converted, or the
warrant is exercised) at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations. Any
discount in the carrying value of the note is fully amortized on the date of settlement and recognized as interest expense. The Company
estimated the fair value of these embedded derivatives using a multinomial lattice model. The range of underlying assumptions used in
the binomial model to determine the fair value of the derivative warrant liability upon settlement of the derivative liability and as
of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022 are set forth below. In addition, the Company's stock price on each measurement date was used
in the model.

20 - Segment Reporting
We
define our segments as those operations whose results are regularly reviewed by our CODM to analyze performance and allocate resources.
Therefore, segment information is prepared on the same basis that management reviews financial information for operational decision-making
purposes. Our CODM is a committee comprised of our CEO, COO, and CFO.
23
The
Enterprise segment is focused on opportunities in the commercial sector, including military. Enterprise is building the infrastructure
to manage drone fleets, fly and provide services remotely, and navigate confined industrial interior spaces and dangerous military environments.
The
Consumer segment is focused on enthusiasts and hobbyists which are expected to increase as drones become more visible in our daily lives.
Our
CODM allocates resources to and assesses the performance of our two operating segments based on the operating segments’ net sales
and gross profit. The following table sets forth information by reportable segment for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022,
respectively.

Sale
of Consumer Segment
On
November 21, 2022, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") with Unusual Machines, Inc. (“UM”)
and Jeffrey Thompson, the founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “Principal Stockholder”), related to the sale
of the Company’s consumer business consisting of Rotor Riot, (“RR”), and Fat Shark Holdings (“FS”),
for $18 million in cash and securities of UM.
The
purchase price consists of (i) $5 million in cash (as increased for positive working capital and decreased for negative working capital
at closing) plus (ii) $2.5 million in a convertible senior note of UM (the “Senior Note”) plus (iii) $10.5 million in Series
A convertible preferred stock of UM (the “Series A Stock”). The Senior Note and Series A Stock will be convertible
into Common Stock at the lesser of $4.00 per share or the IPO price of UM. The Senior Note and Series A Stock shall contain beneficial
ownership blockers under which conversion shall be limited to 4.99% and/or 9.99% of the total voting power of UM, and may be further
subject to limitations on voting and conversion required in order to conform with requirements of NASDAQ related to the issuance of more
than 19.99% of the outstanding Common Stock in accordance with NASDAQ Rule 5635(d). The Senior Note and Series A Stock will include anti-dilution
protection in the case of issuances by UM at a price lower than the then applicable conversion price for so long as the Senior Note or
Series A Stock remains outstanding under which the conversion price will be reduced to such lower price as UM shall issue or agree to
issue any of its securities.
Under
the terms of the SPA the Principal Stockholder and UM have agreed to indemnification obligations, which shall survive for a period of
9 months, subject to certain limitations, which includes a basket of $250,000 before any claim can be asserted and a cap equal to the
value of the escrow shares, other than in cases involving fraud. The Principal Stockholder agreed to deposit 450,000 shares of UM common
stock owned to secure any indemnification obligations.
As
a condition to closing, UM shall enter into an employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer including non-compete provisions,
which cannot be amended or waived without the prior written consent of the Company. UM, RR and FS will also be subject to non-competition
agreements restricting activities involving Class I ISR drones, and for military, government, and enterprise customers.
The
closing of the SPA is subject to customary closing conditions which include shareholder approval by the Company’s shareholders
following filing with the SEC and mailing of the Company’s Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A and the approval of the transactions
by a majority of the disinterested shareholders of the Company. The Principal Stockholder, who holds approximately 24% of the voting
power of the Company, shall abstain from the vote on approval of the SPA. On November 21, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company
approved the SPA and its submission to shareholders for approval. In addition, closing of the SPA is subject to successful completion
of an initial public offering (the “IPO”) by UM in the minimum amount of $15 million, and the listing of UM’s common
stock on NASDAQ. The SPA requires the Company to cooperate with UM in connection with the IPO and to deliver audited financial statements
of RR and FS. UM has agreed to register all of the common stock for which the Senior Note is convertible in the IPO for resale by the
Company, or to pay the note in full with proceeds of the offering at closing, at UM’s election. In addition, UM has agreed to enter
into a registration rights agreement for 100% of the common stock for which the Series A Stock may be converted and to use its best efforts
to file and have declared effective such registration statement, on demand and on a piggy-back basis in connection with any other registration
statements filed by UM.

filed with the SEC, which was declared effective by the SEC on June 14, 2021 and a Supplement to the Prospectus contained in a registration
statement filed with the SEC on July 19, 2021.
Plan of Operations
Since April 2016, the Company's primary business has been
to provide products, services, and solutions to the drone industry which it presently does through its four wholly owned subsidiaries.
Beginning in January 2020, the Company expanded the scope of its drone products and services through four acquisitions, including:
A. In January 2020, the Company acquired Rotor Riot, a provider of First Person
View (FPV) drones and equipment, primarily to the consumer marketplace. The purchase price was $1,995,114.
B. In November 2020, the Company acquired Fat Shark Holdings, a provider of
FPV video goggles to the drone industry. The purchase price was $8,354,076.
26
C. In May 2021, the Company acquired Skypersonic which provides hardware and
software solutions that enable drones to complete inspection services in locations where GPS is not available, yet still record and transmit
data even while being operated from thousands of miles away. The purchase price was $2,791,012.
D. In August 2021, the Company acquired Teal Drones, a leader in commercial
and government UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) technology. The purchase price was $10,011,279.
Following the Teal acquisition,
we focused on integrating and organizing these businesses. Effective May 1, 2022, we established the Enterprise and Consumer segments
in order to sharpen our focus on the unique opportunities in each sector. The Enterprise segment, which includes Teal Drones and
Skypersonic, is focused on opportunities in the commercial sector, including military. Enterprise is building the infrastructure
to manage drone fleets, fly and provide services remotely, and navigate confined industrial interior spaces and dangerous military environments.
The Consumer segment, which includes Fat Shark and Rotor Riot, is focused on hobbyists and enthusiasts which are expected to increase
as drones become more visible in our daily lives.
In November 2021, we entered into
an agreement to sell our Consumer segment to Unusual Machines for total consideration of $18 million, including $ 5 million in cash, at
closing, and $13 million in securities of Unusual Machines. The Company has determined to focus its efforts and capital on military
and defense where it believes that there are more opportunities to create. long term shareholder value. The transaction is expected to
close in the first half of calendar 2023 but is contingent upon Unusual Machines completing (i) an initial public offering that raises
sufficient capital to close the transaction, and (ii) a listing of its common stock on Nasdaq. There can be no assurances that the
transaction will successfully close.
Results of Operations
The analysis
of the Company's results of operations for the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 compared to the three and six months ended
October 31, 2021 is significantly impacted by the acquisition of Teal Drones on August 31, 2021. Teal is the Company’s largest operating
subsidiary. Since acquiring Teal, the Company has more than tripled the number of employees and significantly expanded its facilities. As
a result, the comparison of the three and six months ended October 31, 2022 to the three and six months ended October 31, 2021 yields
more significant changes than might normally occur.
Three Months Ended October 31, 2022 and October
31, 2021
Revenues
Revenues totaled $1,530,462 during
the three months ended October 31, 2022 (or the "2022 period") compared to $1,863,239 for the three months ended October 31,
2021 (or the "2021 period"), representing a decrease of $332,777, or 18%. Consumer revenues totaled $782,850 during the 2022
period compared to $1,354,807 during the 2021 period, resulting in a decrease of $571,957, or 42%. Fat Shark launched its newest product,
the Dominator, in the prior fiscal quarter during which the Consumer segment generated record quarterly revenues. During the three
months ended October 31, 2022, sales decreased sharply for Fat Shark which often happens in the quarter after the launch of new consumer
products. Fat Shark revenues totaled $46,322 during the 2022 period compared to $847,606 during the 2021 period, resulting in a
decrease of $801,284, or 95%. Enterprise revenues totaled $747,612 during the 2022 period compared to $508,432 during
the 2021 period, resulting in an increase of $239,180, or 47%. This increase primarily related to Teal, which contributed a full three
months of revenue in the 2022 period compared to only two months during the 2021 period. Teal accounted for 81% of Enterprise revenues
during the 2022 period.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Goods totaled $1,296,807 in
the 2022 period compared to $1,710,657 in the 2021 period, representing a decrease of $413,850, or 24%. The decrease directly related
to lower revenues which decreased by 18% in the 2022 period compared to the 2021 period.
27
Gross Margin
Gross margin
totaled $233,655 during the three months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $152,582 during the three months ended October 31, 2021, representing
an increase of $81,073, or approximately 53%. On a percentage basis, gross margin was 15% during the 2022 period compared to 8% during
the 2021 period. The percentage basis increase primarily related to Fat Shark which realized higher margins in the 2022 period related
to the launch of its Dominator goggles compared to the 2021 period when it lowered prices to expedite the sale of products near the end
of their life cycle. These changes in product offerings increased gross margin for Fat Shark from negative 13% in the 2021 period to positive
6% in the 2022 period.
Operating Expenses
Operations
expense totaled $1,752,873 during the 2022 period compared to $283,249 during the 2021 period, resulting in an increase of $1,469,624,
or almost 5 times. Approximately 95% of the increase, or $1,398,669, related to Teal which was acquired on August 31, 2021. Since
acquiring Teal, we have more than tripled its headcount and expanded its facilities. Approximately 38% of Teal's costs related to payroll,
31% to employee-related office expenses, 16% to overhead with the balance spread ratably across numerous categories including facilities,
travel, and information technology.
Research
and development expenses totaled $1,354,914 during the three months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $493,441 during the three months
ended October 31, 2021, representing an increase of $861,473, or greater than 100%. Substantially all of the increase related to Teal
which was acquired on August 31, 2021. Since acquiring Teal, we have more than tripled its headcount and expanded its facilities.
Approximately 51% of Teal's expenses related to payroll with 27% related to office, and 21% related to professional fees.

$731,769 during the 2022 period compared to $185,385 during the 2021 period, resulting in an increase of $546,384, or almost three times. Payroll
costs totaled $385,938 in the 2022 period compared to $108,297 resulting in an increase of $277,641 which represented 51% of the total
increase in sales and marketing costs. Meals, travel, and training costs totaled $139,746 in the 2022 period compared to $2,356 resulting
in an increase of $137,390 which represented 25% of the total increase. In addition, higher advertising costs represented 12% of the increase.
General and administrative expenses
totaled $1,919,637 during the three months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $1,050,708 during the three months ended October 31, 2021,
representing an increase of $868,929, or 83%. Payroll costs totaled $712,338 in the 2022 period compared to $211,954 in the 2021
period resulting in an increase of $500,384, or 58% of the total increase in general and administrative expenses. Legal and lobbying services
costs increased by $241,294 representing 28% of the total increase.
During the
three months ended October 31, 2022, we incurred stock-based compensation costs of $1,246,796 compared to $899,937 in the 2021 period,
resulting in an increase of $346,859 or 39%. Since the 2021 period, the Company has issued 1,159,000 additional options which resulted
in incremental stock based compensation costs of $213,351 in the 2022 period. In addition, costs related to restricted stock awards
totaled $814,108 during the 2022 period compared to $581,610 during the 2021 period, representing an increase of $232,498, or 67% of the
total increase.
Other Income
Other Income totaled $527,857 during
the 2022 period compared to $19,537 during the 2021 period, representing an increase of $508,320. The largest component change was the

to income of $118,813 during the 2021 period, representing an increase of $567,931. Changes in the fair value of the derivative liability
are most significantly impacted by changes in the Company's stock price. A decrease in the stock price during the 2022 period resulted
in a decrease in the carrying value of the liability, and therefore, the recognition of income. In addition, the Company recognized
net investment income of $103,817 in the 2022 period compared to net expense of 38,447 during the 2021 period. Early in fiscal 2022, the
Company completed two offerings of common stock which generated net proceeds of approximately $70 million. These funds were primarily
invested in high quality, corporate debt which generated investment income during the 2022 period. Depreciation and amortization expense,
included in other, totaled $227,162 in the 2022 period compared to $21,780 in the 2021 period, resulting in an increase of $205,382, or more
than 100%. Since the end of the 2021 period, we have incurred capital
expenditures totaling $735,993 through the end of the 2022 period which has resulted in higher depreciation expense.
28
Net Loss
Net Loss totaled $6,244,477 during
the three months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $2,740,601 during the three months ended October 31, 2021, representing an increase
of $3,503,876, or greater than 100%. The acquisition of Teal Drones on August 31, 2021 accounted for the majority of the increase.
Since acquiring Teal, we have more than tripled its headcount and significantly expanded its facilities. Net loss for Teal during the
2022 period totaled $3,098,709 compared to $441,118 for the 2021 period, representing an increase of $2,657,597, or more than 6 times.

the 2022 period compared to $3,005,004 in the 2021 period, representing an increase of $1,003,447, or 33%. The increase directly related
to higher revenues which increased by 41% in the 2022 period compared to the 2021 period.
Gross Margin
Gross margin totaled $591,282 during
the six months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $254,986 during the six months ended October 31, 2021, representing an increase of $336,296,
or greater than 100%. On a percentage basis, gross margin was 13% during the 2022 period compared to 8% during the 2021 period. The percentage
basis increase primarily related to Fat Shark which realized higher margins in the 2022 period related to the launch of its Dominator
goggles compared to the 2021 period when it lowered prices to expedite the sale of products near the end of their life cycle. These changes

therefore, only operated for 2 months in the 2021 period compared to a full six months in the 2022 period. In addition, we have
more than tripled Teal's headcount and doubled the size of its facilities. Approximately 48% of Teal's costs related to payroll, 24% to

to income of $273,061 during the 2021 period, representing an increase of $320,761. Changes in the fair value of the derivative liability

the six months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $4,298,373 during the six months ended October 31, 2021, representing an increase of
$5,757,703, or greater than 100%. The acquisition of Teal Drones in August 2021 accounted for the majority of the increase. Since
acquiring Teal, we have more than tripled its headcount and significantly expanded its facilities. Net loss for Teal during the 2022
period totaled $4,805,548 compared to $441,118 for the 2021 period, representing an increase of $4,364,430, or almost ten times.
The higher net loss for Teal represented 76% of the increase in the consolidated net loss.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $13,534,139
during the six months ended October 31, 2022, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $8,567,507 during the six months ended
October 31, 2021, representing an increase of $4,966,632, or 58%. Net cash used in operations, net of non-cash expenses totaling $1,748,455,
equaled $8,307,621 in the 2022 period compared to $2,998,905, net of non-cash expenses totaling $1,299,468 in the 2021 period, resulting
in an increase of $5,308,716, or greater than 100%. The higher use of cash primarily related to the acquisition of Teal Drones in August
2021 which resulted in a full six months of operations in the 2022 period compared to two months of operations in the 2021 period.
Net cash used related to changes in operating assets and liabilities totaled $5,226,518 during the six months ended October 31, 2022,
compared to $5,568,602 during the six months ended October 31, 2021, representing a decrease of $342,084, or 6%. Changes in operating
assets and liabilities can fluctuate significantly from period to period depending upon the timing and level of multiple factors, including
inventory purchases and vendor payments.
30
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $11,960,901
during the six months ended October 31, 2022, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $48,127,938 during the six months ended
October 31, 2021 resulting in an increase of $60,088,839, or greater than 100%. During the 2022 period, net proceeds of $13,241,836 from
the maturities of marketable securities were used to fund operations, and $1,280,935 was used to purchase property and equipment, primarily
related to the expansion of the manufacturing facilities for Teal. During the 2021 period, almost $50 million of proceeds from stock offerings
were invested in marketable securities.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $928,826
during the six months ended October 31, 2022, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $67,977,856 during the six months
ended October 31, 2021. Financing activities can vary from period to period depending upon market conditions, both at a macro-level and
specific to the Company. During the 2021 period, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $70 million in connection with two
offerings of common stock.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At October 31, 2022, the Company reported current
assets totaling $44,816,972, current liabilities totaling $4,521,287 and net working capital of $40,295,685. Cash and marketable securities
totaled $32,885,639 at October 31, 2022. Inventory related balances, including pre-paid inventory, totaled $10,265,945. We continue
to maintain higher-than-normal inventory balances related to the global supply chain issues, including chip shortages, which have been
ongoing for more than a year. At October 31, 2022, the Company was in a strong liquidity and capital position relative to its operating
results for the quarter ended October 31, 2022 and its expected cash requirements for the next twelve months.
Capital Transactions
S-1
Offering
On May 4, 2021, the Company
closed a firm commitment underwritten public offering (the "S-1 Offering") for the sale of 4,000,000 shares of common stock,
at a public offering price of $4.00 per share, to ThinkEquity, a division of Fordham Financial Management, Inc., as representative of
the underwriters ("ThinkEquity"), pursuant to an underwriting agreement with Think Equity. The shares were sold pursuant
to a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-253491), filed with the SEC, which was declared effective
by the Commission on April 29, 2021 (the "S-1 Registration Statement").
S-3
Offering
On July 21, 2021 the Company closed a firm commitment
underwritten public offering (the "S-3 Offering") for the sale of 13,333,334 shares of common stock at a purchase price
of $4.50 per share to ThinkEquity. The shares were sold pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (File No. 333-256216),
filed with the SEC, which was declared effective by the SEC on June 14, 2021 and a Supplement to the Prospectus contained in a registration
statement filed with the SEC on July 19, 2021.
Going Concern
We only began generating revenues in January 2020
and have reported net losses since inception. We expect to report net losses for at least the next twelve months. To date,
we have funded our operations through debt and equity transactions. In May and July 2021, we completed common stock offerings which
generated gross proceeds of approximately $70 million. At October 31, 2022, we reported cash and investment balances of approximately
$33 million. We expect these financial resources to be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.
However, we can provide no assurance that these financial resources will be sufficient to fund our operations until we reach profitability.
If we are unable to become profitable before expending our current financial resources, we will need to raise additional capital through
equity or debt transactions. We can provide no assurance that such additional financing, if required, will be available to us on
acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to become profitable or obtain sufficient funding, our business, prospects, financial condition
and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected, and we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
31
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. 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, the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
periods.
We regularly evaluate the
accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in
the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, information from third party
professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could
differ from those estimates made by management.
Significant estimates reflected in these financial
statements include those used to (i) determine stock-based compensation, (ii) complete purchase price accounting for acquisitions, and
(iii) accounting for derivatives.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements
that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and
the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact
on its financial position or results of operations.
