Company
Overview
Corporate
History
TruGolf
Nevada, was formed as a Utah corporation on October 4, 1995, under the name TruGolf Incorporated, and was a subsidiary of Access Software.
On June 9, 1999, TruGolf Nevada changed its name to TruGolf, Inc. Upon the acquisition of Access Software by Microsoft Corp. in August
1999, the core programming and graphics team of the LinksTM video game series were spun out to TruGolf Nevada.
Effective
on April 26, 2016, TruGolf Nevada filed Articles of Merger with the State of Utah, Department of Commerce, and on April 28, 2016, TruGolf
Nevada filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada, pursuant to which TruGolf, Inc., a Utah corporation, merged with
and into TruGolf Nevada, pursuant to a Plan of Merger. TruGolf Nevada was the surviving corporation and, in connection with the Plan
of Merger, TruGolf Nevada affected a four-for-one forward stock split of its outstanding common stock.
TruGolf
Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Deep Medicine Acquisition Corp.) (“TruGolf”, and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”),
was incorporated on July 8, 2020, as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a business combination, with no material
operation of its own.
22
On
March 31, 2023, we entered into an Agreement and Plan Of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with TruGolf Nevada, DMAQ Merger
Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Nevada corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Bright Vision Sponsor LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, in the capacity as representative for our stockholders at the time of the Merger Agreement, Christopher Jones, an
individual, in the capacity as TruGolf Nevada’s representative, and TruGolf Nevada (together, the “Merger
Parties”). On July 21, 2023, the Merger Parties entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
“Restated Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which the Merger Agreement was amended and restated to provide, among other
things, that (i) contingent earnout shares will be issued after the Closing, if and when earned, upon the Company meeting the
milestones specified in the Restated Merger Agreement, rather than being issued at the closing of the merger and being placed into
escrow subject to potential forfeiture; and (ii) the share price of the Company’s common stock used in the calculation of the
number of shares to be issued to the Sellers as merger consideration shall be $10.00, as opposed to the price at which the Company
redeems the shares of common stock held by its public stockholders in connection with the closing of this business
combination.
On
January 31, 2024, we consummated the business combination (the “Closing”). As a result of the Closing and the transactions contemplated
by the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub merged with and into TruGolf Nevada, with TruGolf Nevada surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of TruGolf, and (ii) TruGolf’s name was changed from Deep Medicine Acquisition Corp. to TruGolf Holdings, Inc. TruGolf’s
Class A common stock commenced trading on the Nasdaq Global Market LLC under the ticker “TRUG” on February 1, 2024.
Business
Overview
Since
1983, the Company has been passionate about driving the golf industry with innovative, indoor golf solutions. We build products that
capture the spirit of golf. Our mission is to help grow the game by making it more available, more approachable and more affordable,
through technology – because we believe golf is for everyone.
Our
team has built award-winning video games (including Links, a popular sports game for PC), innovative hardware solutions, and an all-new
e-sports platform to connect golfers around the world with TruGolf E6 Connect Software, our premier software engine. Since TruGolf’s
beginning, we have continued to define and redefine what is possible with golf technology.
In
addition to offering a variety of custom, professional, and portable golf simulators, TruGolf’s latest launch monitor, Apogee,
was created to improve accuracy and to make using the launch monitor easier. Features of Apogee include: a unique Apogee Voice Assistant,
a voice command system that allows users to navigate their TruGolf E6 Connect Software gameplay within rounds and practice sessions;
Laser Launchpad, a laser indicator that shows users where to place the ball and when the system is ready to record a swing and Point-of-Impact
(POI) slow-motion replay video.
Our
suite of hardware offerings in the golf technology space is expansive, offering something for virtually everyone from gamers to beginners
to professionals, and all consumers in between. Hardware offerings are sold through a global network of authorized resellers, retail
outlets and direct-to-consumer through a dedicated TruGolf sales team. Our suite of hardware offerings ranges from entry level pricing
at just under $400, to well over $100,000 for custom projects, creating a wide range of pricing options for nearly all consumers, and
providing TruGolf with a competitive advantage in creating a wide consumer base as compared to its competitors (who often only focus
in a narrow consumer price range).
TruGolf
creates top golf technology software in the marketplace through its TruGolf E6 Connect and E6 Apex Software. Importantly, TruGolf’s
software is designed not only for use with our suite of hardware offerings in the golf technology space, but also integrates with more
than twenty-four third party golf technology hardware manufacturers, translating to a market integration coverage equal to roughly 90%
of golf technology hardware in the global market space, which allows peer-to-peer play across these golf technology hardware manufacturers,
allowing for a unification of the golf technology space. TruGolf’s software records, on average, over 725,000 indoor golf shots
per day. TruGolf’s E6 Connect Software is both PC and iOS compatible and can be used both indoors and outdoors.
23
TruGolf
has leveraged its unique position as one of the industry leaders in both hardware and software golf technology solutions to organize
and found the Virtual Golf Association (VGA). The VGA is a gamified virtual economy that takes place inside the TruGolf E6 Connect Software.
Users have a chance to earn points through play, practice, and more – providing a worldwide leaderboard of connected indoor golfers.
Each shot users take rewards them with points. These points can be used to purchase in-game enhancements, or to enter virtual golf tournaments
with real world prizes. The VGA is broken into three models:
●
Game
Analysis – rewards TruGolf software users who measure their game. Users can set specific goals (e.g., shots hit per month,
speed and distance gains, dispersion reduction) and earn points for hitting milestones. At the end of each month, users can see how
they compared against all other users utilizing the Game Analysis features.
●
Connected
Golf – rewards users for joining with their friends and playing golf online. Earn points for playing a new course or linking
up to play nine holes with another player utilizing TruGolf software.
●
Virtual
Golf Association Events – events are worldwide leaderboard format, flighted by handicap, where users play and compete to shoot
the lowest score. These contests include stroke play, closest to the pin, match play, stableford, and more. Users earn points based
on how they finish in their division.
In
totality, TruGolf’s business model is designed to be positioned as the hub of golf technology, with groundbreaking hardware technologies
that we believe can become the industry standard and unify the industry as a whole by serving as the leader of golf technology software
solutions through its TruGolf’s software.
Reverse
Stock Split
On
June 23, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation
with the Secretary of the State of Delaware to effect a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the Class A and Class B shares of the Company’s
issued and outstanding common stock, effective as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on June 23, 2025 (the “Reverse Stock Split”)
and began trading on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis on Nasdaq on June 23, 2025. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number
of Class A common shares outstanding was reduced from 40,532,150 to 810,617 and the number of Class B common shares outstanding was reduced
from 10,000,000 to 200,000, and the number of authorized shares of common stock remained unchanged. All share amounts have been retroactively
adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split.
Revenue
The
Company derives our revenue through the sales of our golf simulators, perpetual software licenses, content software subscriptions, and
franchising.

was offset by a decrease in salaries, wages and benefits of $111,077, or 10%, due primarily to an increase in salaries being capitalized

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of June 30, 2025, we had cash on hand of $10,159,359 and a working capital surplus of $6,554,656, as compared to cash on hand of $10,882,077
and a working capital deficiency of $982,237 as of December 31, 2024. The increase in working capital surplus is primarily attributable
to the recognition of the $5,651,310 current asset related to the fair value of Series A Preferred Stock and related Series A warrants
issued in connection with the bundled PIPE Exchange Agreement transaction. These instruments are classified as current assets because
they are expected to be used in the settlement of outstanding obligations within the next twelve months. The fair value was determined
at the time of issuance based on the observable market price of the Company’s common stock and the contractual conversion provisions
of the Series A Preferred Stock.
The
Company’s operating activities consume the majority of its cash resources. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur
operating losses as it executed its development plans for 2025, as well as other potential strategic and business development initiatives.
In addition, the Company has had and expects to have negative cash flows from operations, at least into the near future. The Company
has previously funded, and plans to continue funding, these losses with the sale of equity and convertible notes. The accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue
as a going concern.

The
increase in current assets is primarily due to the recording of the $5,651,310 asset related to the fair value of Series A Preferred
Stock and Series A Warrants as noted above. The increase in current liabilities is primarily due to the reclass of
$3,734,900 in PIPE Convertible Notes from non-current liabilities to current liabilities as a result of the PIPE Convertible Notes being
extinguished on July 21, 2025 as part of the April 22, 2025 PIPE Exchange Agreements.
