Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of George Risk Industries, Inc. (the Company) as of April 30, 2023 and 2022, and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The 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) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The 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. F- 2 Critical Audit Matter – Revenue Recognition – Refer to Note 1 of the Financial Statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company primarily generates revenue through non-complex sales transactions that require limited judgement. However, there are instances in which revenue contracts contain complexities that are subject to critical judgment around when the performance obligation is satisfied. These specific elements of revenue are variable considerations, returns and allowances. Consideration in contracts with customers is variable due to anticipated reductions such as discounts, rebates, and allowances. Accordingly, revenues are recorded net of estimated variable consideration, returns and allowances, based on known or expected values. This matter was considered a critical audit matter as there is a high degree of auditor effort in performing procedures and evaluation of audit evidence related to contractual terms in customer arrangements to determine the amounts of consideration. How the Critical Audit Matter was Addressed in the Audit Our principal procedures related to the Company’s revenue recognition for these specific elements are the following: ● We evaluated management’s significant accounting policies related to various elements of revenue recognition. ● We performed analytical procedures to test the reasonableness of recorded balances. ● For a sample of transactions, we inspected source documents, including customer contracts or purchase orders, third-party shipping information, invoices, and relevant communication. ● Evaluated contractual terms in customer arrangements that impact management determination of the variable consideration related to the productions and related recognition of revenue on a sample basis. Critical Audit Matter – Valuation of Investments – Refer to Note 1 and Note 3 of the Financial Statements Critical Audit Matter Description The company has investments in publicly traded equity securities, state and municipal debt securities, REITS, and money markets and they are recorded at fair value. Some of these investments are Level 2 investments and can be hard to value. In addition, as the securities held at fair value, management must assess securities that are in a significant unrealized loss position for other than temporary impairment. For these securities, management must make difficult and subjective judgements about the ability of the issuer to be able to meet its obligations under terms of the security. These judgements can have a significant impact on the Company’s reported earnings if they should prove to be significantly inaccurate. How the Critical Audit Matter was Addressed in the Audit Our principal procedures related to the Company’s process for debt securities valuations as well as the process for equity securities other than temporary impairment evaluation included are the following: ● We evaluated management’s significant accounting policies related to the identification of other than temporary impairment. ● Valuation specialists, with specialized skills and knowledge, were involved in the assessment of the fair values for a sample of Level 2 investments. ● We performed testing over a sample of securities to determine if conclusions reached by management regarding other than temporary impairment were appropriate. /s/ Haynie and Company We have served as the Company’s auditor since 1992.

F- 10 George Risk Industries, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements April 30, 2023 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies George Risk Industries, Inc. (GRI or the Company) was incorporated in 1967 in Colorado. The Company is presently engaged in the design, manufacture, and sale of custom computer keyboards, proximity switches, security alarm components and systems, pool access alarms, EZ Duct wire covers, water sensors, electronic switching devices, high security switches, and wire and cable installation tools. Nature of Business — The Company is engaged in the design, manufacture, and marketing of custom computer keyboards, proximity sensors, security alarm components, pool access alarms, liquid detection sensors, raceway wire covers, wire and cable installation tools and various other sensors and devices. Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Estimated Credit Losses — Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company sells its products to security alarm distributors, alarm installers, and original equipment manufacturers. The Company extends credit to its customers based on their credit worthiness and performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. If the Company believes the extension of credit is not advisable, other payment methods such as prepayments are required. Balances deemed uncollectible by the Company are written off against our allowance for credit loss accounts. The Company maintains an allowance for estimated credit losses related to accounts receivable for future expected credit losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of our customers to make required payments. We estimate our allowance for credit losses based on relevant information such as historical experience, current conditions, and future expectation of specifically identified customer balances. This allowance is adjusted as appropriate to reflect current conditions. The Company has recorded an allowance for estimated credit losses of $ 17,922 for the year ended April 30, 2023 and $ 33,531 for the year ended April 30, 2022 For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses on accounts receivable was a credit of $ 17,171 compared to an expense of $ 24,199 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022. Concentrations of Credit Risk — The Company has a limited number of customers with individually substantial amounts due at any given date. Any unanticipated change in any one of these customers’ credit worthiness or other matters affecting the collectability of amounts due from such customers could have a material effect on the results of operations in the period in which such changes or events occur. Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realized value. Cost is determined using the average cost-pricing method. The Company uses actual costs to price its manufactured inventories, approximating average costs. F- 11 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated based on the following estimated useful lives using the straight-line method: Schedule of Property and Equipment Classification Useful Life in Years 2023 Cost 2022 Cost Dies, jigs, and molds 3 – 7 $ 1,871,000 $ 1,855,000 Machinery and equipment 5 – 10 2,632,000 2,224,000 Furniture and fixtures 5 – 10 222,000 222,000 Improvements 5 – 32 605,000 541,000 Buildings 20 – 39 1,151,000 1,151,000 Automotive 3 – 5 126,000 110,000 Software 2 – 5 425,000 425,000 Land N/A 80,000 80,000 Total 7,112,000 6,608,000 Property and equipment, gross 7,112,000 6,608,000 Accumulated depreciation ( 5,115,000 ) ( 4,826,000 ) Property and equipment, net $ 1,997,000 $ 1,782,000 Depreciation expense of $ 323,000 and $ 312,000 was charged to operations for the years ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the property accounts are relieved of costs and accumulated depreciation and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to operations. Investment in Limited Land Partnership — In November 2002, the Company purchased 6.67% of a prime 22-acre land parcel for development in Winter Park-Grand County, CO for investment purposes for a total of $ 200,000 . The goal was to hold the property for resale(s) in 2 - 5 years, but many efforts to sell the property have not materialized. Over the years, there has been a total of $ 144,000 of additional contributions to aid in improvements and recurring expenses such as debt service, utilities, taxes, maintenance, insurance, and professional fees. Management has evaluated this investment and does not believe there is any impairment and that the full cost will be recovered when sold. Intangible Assets — Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, unless it is determined their lives to be indefinite. The intangible asset currently being amortized is intellectual property with a useful life of 15 years. As of April 30, 2023 the Company had $ 1,149,000 of net intangible asset costs, while the net intangible assets costs at April 30, 2022 were $ 1,271,000 . Amortization expense was $ 122,000 for the year ended April 30, 2023 and $ 123,000 for the year ended April 30, 2022, respectively. F- 12 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued As of April 30, 2023, future amortization of intangible assets is expected as follows: Schedule of Future Amortization of Intangible Assets Fiscal year end Amortization amount 2024 $ 121,000 2025 $ 121,000 2026 $ 121,000 2027 $ 121,000 2028 $ 121,000 Thereafter $ 544,000 Total $ 1,149,000 Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share — The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260-10-45 Earnings per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of income. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Advertising — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling expenses. Advertising expense amounted to $ 105,000 and $ 162,000 for the years ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Income Taxes — Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the future consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Measurement of the deferred tax items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and tax bases of the Company’s assets or liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, we evaluate the probability of realizing the future benefits comprising that asset and record a valuation allowance if considered necessary. Accounting standards prescribe a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of the positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. A “more likely than not” tax position is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than a fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement, or else a full reserve is established against the tax asset or a liability is recorded. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) may generally access additional income tax records for the most recent three years. This would generally prevent the IRS from opening an examination for years ending on or before April 30, 2019. However, there are exceptions that can extend the statute of limitations to six years, and in some cases, prevent the statute of limitations from ever expiring. Interest and penalties accrued on uncertain tax positions are recorded as income tax expense. F- 13 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued It has been determined that the Company does not have uncertain tax positions on its tax returns for the years 2022, 2021, and prior. Based on evaluation of the 2023 transactions and events, the Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions that require measurement. Accounting Estimates — The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions including the carrying value of assets. The estimates and assumptions result in approximate rather than exact amounts. Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Certain financial instruments are required to be recorded at fair value. Changes in assumptions or estimation methods could affect the fair value estimates; however, we do not believe any such changes would have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Other financial instruments, including cash equivalents, certain investments and short-term debt, are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. The fair values of long-term debt and financial instruments are disclosed in Note 11. Investments — The accounting policies for the Company’s principal investments are as follows: Debt Securities and Equity Securities: Effective May 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-01 “Financial Instruments-Overall (ASC Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. As a result, the Company measures its equity securities at fair value and recognizes any changes in fair value in net income. Prior to adoption, equity securities were designated as available-for-sale and reported at fair value with unrealized capital gains (losses) recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). The Company’s debt securities are currently designated as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value and unrealized capital gains (losses) on these securities are recorded directly in AOCI and presented, net of related changes, in deferred income taxes. Purchases and sales of debt securities and equity securities are recorded on the trade date. Investment gains and losses on sales of securities are generally determined on a first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) basis. The Company evaluates all marketable securities for other-than temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost basis exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment and number of investments that are in an unrealized position. When an “other-than-temporary” decline is identified, the Company will decrease the cost of the marketable security to the new fair value and recognize a real loss. The investments are periodically evaluated to determine if impairment changes are required. Revenue Recognition —The Company accounts for revenue using the guidance provided by ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The Company recognizes product revenue using a five-step approach to determine the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized. The five-step approach requires (1) identifying the contract with the customer, (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognizing revenue when performance obligations are satisfied. The Company recognizes revenue for product sales upon transfer of title to the customer. Customer purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement. Shipping documents and the completion of any customer acceptance requirements, when applicable, are used to verify product delivery or that services have been rendered. The Company assesses whether a price is fixed or determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. Payments received from customers in advance of product shipment or revenue recognition are treated as deferred revenues and recognized when the product is shipped. F- 14 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued Variable Consideration — The Company measures revenue as the amount of consideration for which it expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods. Certain customers may receive cash and/or non-cash incentives such as cash rebates, customer discounts (such as volume or trade discounts), which are accounted for as variable consideration. In some cases, the Company must apply judgment, including contractual rates and historical payment trends, when estimating variable consideration. Product Returns — In the normal course of business, the Company may allow customers to return product per the provisions in a sale agreement. Estimated product returns are recorded as a reduction in reported revenues with offsetting entries recorded in the balance sheet quarterly based upon historical product return experience, adjusted for known trends, to arrive at the amount of consideration expected to receive. Product Warranties — In the normal course of business, the Company offers warranties for a variety of its products. The specific terms and conditions of the warranties vary depending upon the specific product and markets in which the products were sold. The Company accrues for the estimated cost of product warranty at the time of sale based on historical experience. Shipping and Handling Costs — The Company considers all shipping and handling to be fulfillment activities and not a separate performance obligation. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as cost of sales. Research and Development Costs — Generally, costs related to the research, design, and development of products are charged to engineering expense as incurred. Certain research and development costs are recognized under assets in the balance sheet. Comprehensive Income — US GAAP requires disclosure of total non-stockholder changes in equity in interim periods and additional disclosures of the components of non-stockholder changes in equity on an annual basis. Total non-stockholder changes in equity include all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from fiscal investments by and distributions to stockholders. Segment Reporting and Related Information — The Company designates the internal organization that is used by management for allocating resources and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. US GAAP also requires disclosures about products and services, geographic area and major customers. At April 30, 2023, the Company operated in three segments organized by security line products, cable and wiring tools (Labor Saving Devices - LSDI) products, and all other products. See Note 9 for further segment information disclosures. Prior Period Financial Statement Adjustment – In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we identified an immaterial misstatement to our financial statements in the Company’s fiscal year end 2022 Annual Report. The misstatement is related to a difference in deferred taxes on depreciation for a few years and up through the year ended April 30, 2022. In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletins No. 99 (“SAB No. 99”) Topic 1.M, “Materiality” and SAB No. 99 Topic 1.N “Considering the Effects of Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements,” we evaluated the misstatement and determined that the related impact was not consequential to our financial statements for any annual or interim period for fiscal 2022, any other prior period, nor would the cumulative impact of correcting the misstatement be consequential to our results of operations and equity for the fiscal and interim periods of 2023. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — There are no new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. Subsequent Events – Management has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after April 30, 2023 and through the date of this report. During this period, the Company received news about its investment in the limited land partnership. The sale of this property (called Idlewild) closed on June 30, 2023. Disbursement of the sale proceeds are contingent on finishing wetland restoration of the land. The limited land partnership intends to start making periodic distributions of the net proceeds of the sale in January 2024. F- 15 2. Inventories Inventories at April 30, 2023 and 2022, consisted of the following: Schedule of Inventories 2023 2022 Raw materials $ 9,886,000 $ 6,772,000 Work in process 678,000 618,000 Finished goods 1,267,000 838,000 Inventory gross 11,831,000 8,228,000 Less: allowance for obsolete inventory ( 388,000 ) ( 288,000 ) Inventories, net $ 11,443,000 $ 7,940,000 3. Investments The Company has investments in publicly traded equity securities, state and municipal debt securities, REITs, and money markets and they are recorded at fair value. The investments in debt securities, which include municipal bonds and bond funds, mature between August 2023 and September 2042. The Company uses the average cost method to determine the cost of equity securities sold with any unrealized gains or losses reported in the respective period’s earnings. Dividend and interest income are reported as earned. As of April 30, 2023 and 2022, investments consisted of the following: Schedule of Investments Gross Gross Investments at Cost Unrealized Unrealized Reported April 30, 2023 Basis Gains Losses Value Municipal bonds $ 5,396,000 $ 46,000 $ ( 230,000 ) $ 5,212,000 REITs $ 93,000 $ - $ ( 22,000 ) $ 71,000 Equity securities $ 18,605,000 $ 6,915,000 $ ( 501,000 ) $ 25,019,000 Money Markets and CDs $ 1,060,000 $ 1,000 $ - $ 1,061,000 Total $ 25,154,000 $ 6,962,000 $ ( 753,000 ) $ 31,363,000 Gross Gross Investments at Cost Unrealized Unrealized Reported April 30, 2022 Basis Gains Losses Value Municipal bonds $ 5,625,000 $ 41,000 $ ( 229,000 ) $ 5,437,000 REITs $ 131,000 $ 16,000 $ ( 3,000 ) $ 144,000 Equity securities $ 18,322,000 $ 6,921,000 $ ( 473,000 ) $ 24,770,000 Money Markets and CDs $ 628,000 $ - $ - $ 628,000 Total $ 24,706,000 $ 6,978,000 $ ( 705,000 ) $ 30,979,000 Marketable securities that are classified as equity securities are carried at fair value on the balance sheets with changes in fair value recorded as an unrealized gain or (loss) in the statements of income in the period of the change. Upon the disposition of a marketable security, the Company records a realized gain or (loss) on the Company’s statements of income. The Company evaluates all investments for other-than temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost basis exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment and number of investments that are in an unrealized position. When other than a temporary decline is identified, the Company will decrease the cost of the investment to the new fair value and recognize a loss. The investments are periodically evaluated to determine if impairment changes are required. As a result of this standard, management recorded an impairment loss of $ 67,000 for the year ended April 30, 2023, but did no t have to record any impairment losses for the year ended April 30, 2022. The Company’s investments are actively traded in the stock and bond markets. Therefore, there is either a realized gain or loss that is recorded when a sale happens. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 the Company had sales of equity securities which yielded gross realized gains of $ 512,000 and gross realized losses of $ 740,000 . For the same period, there were not any sales of debt securities for gross realized gains, but sales of debt securities yielded gross realized losses of $ 63,000 . Conversely, the Company recorded gross realized gains on equity securities of $ 661,000 and gross realized losses of $ 221,000 for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2022. As for debt securities, there were not any sales of debt securities for gross realized gains, but sales of debt securities yielded gross realized losses of $ 26,000 for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2022. The gross realized loss numbers include the impaired figures listed in the previous paragraph. Additionally, proceeds from sales of securities available for sale were $ 25,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 and were $ 452,000 for the prior fiscal year. F- 16 3. Investments, continued The following table shows the investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at April 30, 2023 and 2022. Unrealized Loss Breakdown by Investment Type at April 30, 2023 Schedule of Unrealized Loss Breakdown by Investment Less than 12 months 12 months or greater Total Description Fair Value Unrealized Loss Fair Value Unrealized Loss Fair Value Unrealized Loss Municipal bonds $ 868,000 $ ( 6,000 ) $ 3,769,000 $ ( 224,000 ) $ 4,637,000 $ ( 230,000 ) REITs $ 36,000 $ ( 9,000 ) $ 35,000 $ ( 13,000 ) $ 71,000 $ ( 22,000 ) Equity securities $ 3,048,000 $ ( 140,000 ) $ 2,209,000 $ ( 361,000 ) $ 5,257,000 $ ( 501,000 ) Total $ 3,952,000 $ ( 155,000 ) $ 6,013,000 $ ( 598,000 ) $ 9,965,000 $ ( 753,000 ) Unrealized Loss Breakdown by Investment Type at April 30, 2022 Less than 12 months 12 months or greater Total Description Fair Value Unrealized Loss Fair Value Unrealized Loss Fair Value Unrealized Loss Municipal bonds $ 4,420,000 $ ( 142,000 ) $ 539,000 $ ( 87,000 ) $ 4,959,000 $ ( 229,000 ) REITs $ 18,000 $ ( 1,000 ) $ 26,000 $ ( 2,000 ) $ 44,000 $ ( 3,000 ) Equity securities $ 4,157,000 $ ( 424,000 ) $ 274,000 $ ( 49,000 ) $ 4,431,000 $ ( 473,000 ) Total $ 8,595,000 $ ( 567,000 ) $ 839,000 $ ( 138,000 ) $ 9,434,000 $ ( 705,000 ) Municipal Bonds The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in municipal bonds were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value occurs, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at April 30, 2023 and 2022. Marketable Equity Securities and REITs The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities and REITs consist of a wide variety of companies. Investments in these companies include growth, growth income, and foreign investment objectives. Management has evaluated the individual holdings and does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at April 30, 2023 and 2022. F- 17 4. Retirement Benefit Plan On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”).

Fair Value Measurements The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of our investments is determined utilizing market-based information. Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk. US GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The levels of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP are described below: Level 1 Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 2 Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Level 3 Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. F- 22 Investments and Marketable Securities As of April 30, 2023 and 2022, The Company’s investments consisted of money markets, publicly traded equity securities, REITs as well as certain state and municipal bonds. The marketable securities are valued using third-party broker statements. The value of the majority of securities is derived from quoted market information. The inputs to the valuation are classified as Level 1 given the active market for these securities; however, if an active market does not exist, which is the case for municipal bonds and REITs; the inputs are recorded as Level 2. Fair Value Hierarchy The following tables set forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by US GAAP, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Schedule of Assets Measured at Fair Value on Recurring Basis Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis as of April 30, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Municipal Bonds — $ 5,212,000 — $ 5,212,000 REITs — $ 71,000 — $ 71,000 Equity Securities $ 25,019,000 — — $ 25,019,000 Money Markets and CDs $ 1,061,000 — — $ 1,061,000 Total fair value of assets measured on a recurring basis $ 26,080,000 $ 5,283,000 — $ 31,363,000 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis as of April 30, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Municipal Bonds — $ 5,437,000 — $ 5,437,000 REITs — $ 144,000 — $ 144,000 Equity Securities $ 24,770,000 — — $ 24,770,000 Money Markets and CDs $ 628,000 — — $ 628,000 Total fair value of assets measured on a recurring basis $ 25,398,000 $ 5,581,000 — $ 30,979,000 F- 23 Item 9 Disagreements on Accounting and Financial Disclosures There were no disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.
