Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2022 The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K, as well as the risk factors included in this Form 10-K. PART I ITEM 1. Business History of our Company Lazex Inc. (“Lazex”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 12, 2015. On August 23, 2019, the majority owner of Lazex entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Slinger Bag Americas Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Slinger Bag Americas”), which was 100% owned by Slinger Bag Ltd. (“SBL”), an Israeli company. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Slinger Bag Americas acquired 2,000,000 shares of common stock of Lazex for $332,239. On September 16, 2019, SBL transferred its ownership of Slinger Bag Americas to Lazex in exchange for the 200,000 shares of Lazex acquired on August 23, 2019. As a result of these transactions, Lazex owned 100% of Slinger Bag Americas and the sole shareholder of SBL owned 200,000 shares of common stock (approximately 82%) of Lazex. Effective September 13, 2019, Lazex changed its name to Slinger Bag Inc. On October 31, 2019, Slinger Bag Americas acquired control of Slinger Bag Canada, Inc., (“Slinger Bag Canada”) a Canadian company incorporated on November 3, 2017. There were no assets, liabilities or historical operational activity of Slinger Bag Canada. On February 10, 2020, Slinger Bag Americas became the 100% owner of SBL, along with SBL’s wholly owned subsidiary Slinger Bag International (UK) Limited (“Slinger Bag UK”), which was formed on April 3, 2019. On February 10, 2021, Zehava Tepler, the owner of SBL, contributed Slinger Bag UK to Slinger Bag Americas for no consideration. Effective February 25, 2020, the Company increased the number of authorized shares of common stock from 75,000,000 to 300,000,000 via a four-to-one forward split of its outstanding shares of common stock. All share and per share information contained in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the stock split. On June 21, 2021, Slinger Bag Americas entered into a membership interest purchase agreement with Charles Ruddy to acquire a 100% ownership stake in Foundation Sports Systems, LLC (“Foundation Sports”). On February 2, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with Flixsense Pty, Ltd. (“Gameface”). As a result of the share purchase agreement, Gameface would become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. On February 22, 2022, the Company entered into a merger agreement with PlaySight Interactive Ltd. (“PlaySight”) and Rohit Krishnan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”). As a result of the merger agreement, PlaySight would become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. During April 2022, the Company determined that the technology utilized in the Foundation Sports acquired entity would take substantially more financial resources and more time to bring to market and achieve profitability than originally anticipated. As a result, the goodwill and intangible assets related to Foundation Sports were fully impaired as of April 30, 2022, resulting in an impairment loss of $3,486,599. In addition, during April 2022 the Company decided to sell a portion of Foundation Sports. The Company continued to classify Foundation Sports in continuing operations, until December 5, 2022 when they sold 75% of Foundation Sports back to the original owners at which time it deconsolidated this subsidiary and recorded a loss on the sale. The Company also determined to dispose of the PlaySight entity during the year ended April 30, 2023. The Company completed the sale in November 2022 and recorded a loss on the sale at that time. In April 2022, the Company changed its domicile from Nevada to Delaware. On April 7, 2022, the Company effected a name change to Connexa Sports Technologies Inc. We also changed our ticker symbol, “CNXA”. Connexa is now the holding company under which Slinger Bag, PlaySight, Gameface and Foundation Sports reside. The operations of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL, Foundation Sports, PlaySight and Gameface are collectively referred to as the “Company.” On June 14, 2022, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, where the Company’s common stock began to trade on a reverse split adjusted basis. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split and all such fractional interests were rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of common stock. All references to the outstanding stock have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect this reverse split. The Company also consummated a public offering of shares of its common stock and the listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. 1 The Company operates in the sports equipment and technology business. The Company is the owner of the Slinger Launcher, which is comprised of a portable tennis ball launcher, a portable padel tennis ball launcher and a portable pickleball launcher and Gameface AI, providing AI technology and performance analytics. From inception to date, we have been focused on the ball sport market globally. Our first product, the Slinger Bag Launcher, is a patented, highly portable, versatile and affordable ball launcher built into an easy to transport wheeled trolley bag. Tennis ball machines have been around since the 1950’s when they were introduced by Rene Lacoste. Improvements to performance were made in the 1970’s when Prince started its tennis business on the back of its first product – Little Prince – which was a vacuum operated ball machine. In the 1990’s the first battery operated machines came to the market and since that time very little, if anything, has changed in the structure of ball machines products outside of added computerization. Typically, the machines being marketed by traditional ball machine brands are large, cumbersome and awkward to operate. They are also generally expensive – often well above U.S. $1,000 compared to the entry price of $700 for a Slinger Bag Launcher. We believe that up until the introduction of the Slinger Bag Launcher, the majority of traditional tennis ball machines were sold to tennis facilities, institutions and tennis teachers, with only a few being sold directly to tennis playing consumers. Following the acquisitions of Foundation Sports, Gameface and PlaySight Interactive, the Connexa holding company was established and the original equipment-only Slinger Bag company business is being transformed into a sports technology company focused on providing equipment and software based services to sports teams, facilities, academies, events, federations, clubs and players and participants of all ages and abilities. Recent Events Reverse Stock Split On June 14, 2022, we effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, where upon our common stock began to trade on a reverse split adjusted basis. Issued and outstanding stock options and warrants were split on the same basis and exercise prices were adjusted accordingly. All common stock per share numbers and prices included herein have been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split, unless stated otherwise, and other than unaudited and audited financial statements and other historical share disclosures which indicate they are not adjusted for the reverse stock split. Sale of PlaySight On November 27, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with PlaySight, Chen Shachar and Evgeni Khazanov (together, the “Buyer”) pursuant to which the Buyer purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of PlaySight from the Company in exchange for (1) releasing the Company from all of PlaySight’s obligations towards its vendors, employees, tax authorities and any other (past, current and future) creditors of PlaySight; (2) waiver by the Buyer of 100% of the personal consideration owed to them under their employment agreements in the total amount of U.S. $600,000 (which would have been increased in December 2022 to U.S. $800,000); and (3) cash consideration of U.S. $2 million to be paid to the Company as follows: (i) a promissory note in the amount of U.S. $2 million issued and delivered to the Company (the “Promissory Note”). (ii) The maturity due date of the Promissory Note is December 31, 2023 subject to a one year extension in the discretion of the Buyer until December 31, 2024. (iii) The Promissory Note can be partially paid over the time, but in the event it is not paid in full by December 31, 2024, then the remaining amount due (i.e. U.S. $2 million less any amount paid), will be converted into ordinary shares of PlaySight (the “Deposited Shares”), which will be deposited with the escrow company of Altshuler Shaham Trust Ltd. (the “Escrow Agent”) for the benefit of the Company or, at the election of the Company, issued in the form of a stock certificate or recorded in some other market-standard format to be held by the Escrow Agent. 2 (iv) The number of the Deposited Shares shall be determined according to the post-money valuation of the last investment round of the Company, and in the absence of such investment round, the total number of the Deposited Shares shall be $2 million divided by the Company’s valuation to be determined at that time by a third party appraiser, to be nominated by both the Company and the Buyer (the “Appraiser”). The Company and the Buyer have agreed that the identity of the Appraiser shall be Murray Devine Valuation Advisers, to the extent their cost of the appraisal shall not be higher than the cost of other appraisers from the big 4 accounting firms (i.e. E&Y, KPMG, PWC and Deloitte). The Company and the Buyer have agreed to split the cost of the Appraiser. The Company has also released PlaySight from all of its obligations (except for those created by the Agreement) in respect of the Company, including any inter-company debts on the books, and the Buyer has released the Company from all of its obligations (except for those created by the Agreement) in respect of PlaySight and the Buyer. The Company and the Buyer have also agreed to use their best efforts to enter into a non-exclusive binding agreement within three (3) months from the date of the Agreement that permits the Company to receive individual and match analytics for racquet sports (including, but not limited to, tennis, padel and pickle ball) without any upfront cost to the Company and based on revenues to be received from the Company’s customers and users of the analytics. For the avoidance of doubt, the specific terms of such cooperation shall be determined by the Buyer and the Company within the final cooperation agreement, and if it would require PlaySight for the exclusive purpose of such cooperation to develop any additional and new features, which do not exist in the current system of PlaySight, then such R&D costs shall be solely covered by the Company. Any future features that will be developed within PlaySight’s ordinary course of business, and not exclusively for the purpose of the cooperation agreement, shall not be covered by Company. The reason for the entry into the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is to eliminate the need for the Company to provide further financing for PlaySight’s operations. The obligations that the Company assumed in connection with the merger agreement dated October 6, 2021, as amended by the addendum to and amendment to agreement for the merger dated February 16, 2022 remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms and are not affected by the sale of PlaySight to the Buyer. Sale of Foundation Tennis On December 5, 2022, the Company assigned 75% of its membership interest in Foundation Sports to Charles Ruddy, its founder and granted him the right for a period of three years to purchase the remaining 25% of its Foundation Sports membership interests for $500,000 in cash. As of December 5, 2022, the results of Foundation Sports will no longer be consolidated in the Company’s financial statements, and the investment was accounted for as an equity method investment. On December 5, 2022, the Company analyzed this investment and established a reserve for the investment at the full amount of $500,000. September 2022 Private Placement On September 28, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with a single institutional investor (the “Investor”) for the issuance and sale of (i) 1,018,510 shares of common stock and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 11,802,002 shares of its common stock, together with accompanying common stock warrants, at a combined purchase price of $0.39 per share of the common stock and associated common stock warrant and $0.3899 per Pre-Funded Warrant and associated common stock warrants for an aggregate amount of approximately $5.0 million (the “Offering”). The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.00001 per share of common stock and are exercisable until the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The shares of common stock and Pre-Funded Warrants were sold in the offering together with common stock warrants to purchase 12,820,512 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.39 per share and a term of five years following the initial exercise date (the “5-Year Warrants”) and 25,641,024 common stock warrants to purchase 25,641,024 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.43 per share and a term of seven and one half years (the “7.5-Year Warrants”) following the initial exercise date (collectively, the “Warrants”). The Warrants issued in the Offering contain variable pricing features. The Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants will be exercisable beginning on the date stockholder approval is received and effective allowing exercisability of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants under Nasdaq rules. On September 28, 2022, the Company and the Investor entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company shall file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) covering the resale of the unregistered shares of common stock and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants no later than December 20, 2022 (the “Filing Date”) and to use best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as promptly as practical thereafter, and in any event no later than sixty (60) days after the Filing Date. The Company used the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital purposes and to repurchase inventory. Spartan Capital Securities LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent in the Offering. 3 January 2023 Private Placement On January 6, 2023, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with a one or more institutional investors (the “Lenders”) and Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. as agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”) for the issuance and sale of (i) a note in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000 (the “Note”) with the initial advance under the Loan and Security Agreement being $1,400,000 and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to 200% of the face amount of the Note divided by the closing price of the common stock of the Company on the date of the issuance of the Notes (collectively, the “Initial Issuance”). The closing price of the Company’s common stock on January 6, 2023, as reported by Nasdaq, was $0.221 per share, so the Warrants in respect of the initial advance under the Note are exercisable for up to 18,099,548 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Warrants have an exercise price per share equal to the closing price of the common stock of the Company on the date of the issuance of the Note, or $0.221 per share and a term of five- and one-half (5½) years following the initial exercise date. The initial exercise date of the Warrants will be the date stockholder approval is received and effective allowing exercisability of the Warrants under Nasdaq rules. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, an additional advance of $600,000 may be made by to the Company under the Note. The Company’s obligations under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). In connection with the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company and each of the Guarantors entered into a pledge and security agreement with the Agent (the “Pledge and Security Agreements”). The Pledge and Security Agreements provide that the Company and the Guarantors will grant the Agent a security interest in all of the Company’s and each Guarantor’s respective assets. The Company is required to use the net proceeds from the Loan and Security Agreement to pay expenses, including accounting and legal fees, relating to the registration of certain previously issued securities of the Company, which securities were issued to an affiliate of the Agent, and following the payment of such expenses, to fund the Company’s operations. Sale and Consignment of Inventory On January 6, 2023, we sold certain of our inventory including all components, parts, additions and accessions thereto to Yonah Kalfa and Naftali Kalfa who immediately consigned it back to us in exchange for a payment of $103 per ball launcher we sell until we have paid them an aggregate total of $2,092,700, which represents payment in full of the principal amounts of the Loan Agreements (as defined below) and certain other expenses they incurred in connection with the Company. Exclusive Padel distribution Agreement On March 7, 2023, Slinger Bag entered into an exclusive distribution agreement for Padel Tennis with a company located in Valencia, Spain called with Desarrollo y Promocion de Padel S.L. This agreement is contracted to deliver approximately $20million in revenue over a 5 year period. Delinquency Notices On August 16, 2022, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq indicating that, since the Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022, as previously reported by the Company on a Form 12b-25, it no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) for continued listing. On September 26, 2022, the Company announced that it had received a letter from the Nasdaq on September 22, 2022 (“Notice Letter”), notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the periodic filing requirements for continued listing because the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended July 31, 2022 (the “2023 Q1 10-Q”) and Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 (the “2022 10-K” and, together with the 2023 Q1 10-Q, the “Periodic Reports”) were not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the required due dates. On October 10, 2022, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq indicating that the Company’s common stock is subject to potential delisting from Nasdaq because, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of the Company’s common stock has closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Bid Price Rule”). The Nasdaq notice indicated that, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company will be provided 180 calendar days, or until April 10, 2023, to regain compliance. If, at any time before April 10, 2023, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If the Company fails to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule before April 10, 2023, t he Company may be eligible for an additional 180-calendar day compliance period. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for Nasdaq, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. In the event the Company is not eligible for the second grace period, Nasdaq will provide written notice that the Company’s common stock is subject to delisting. On November 17, 2022, Gabriel Goldman and Rohit Krishnan resigned from the board of directors of the Company. Gabriel and Rohit were members of the audit and compensation committees. Gabriel Goldman was a member of the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Neither Gabriel nor Rohit advised the Company of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices. As a result, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for board of directors and committees. 4 On March 21, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“ Nasdaq ”) indicating that the Company’s failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended January 31, 2023 (“Additional Delinquency”) serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq. The Company received a letter from the Nasdaq on February 14, 2023, indicating that, due to the Company’s failure, in violation of Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), to file its (i) Annual Report on Form 10-K with respect to the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022; and (ii) Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended July 31, 2022 and October 31, 2022 (collectively, the “ Delinquent Filings ”), by February 13, 2023 (the due date for filing the Delinquent Filings pursuant to an exception to Nasdaq’s Listing Rule previously granted by Nasdaq), absent the submission of a timely appeal by February 21, 2023, trading of the Company’s common stock would have been suspended from the Nasdaq at the opening of business on February 23, 2023. Nasdaq would also have filed a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which would have resulted in the removal of the Company’s securities from listing and registration on the Nasdaq (the “ Staff Determination ”). Additionally, on October 10, 2022, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq indicating that the Company’s common stock is subject to potential delisting from Nasdaq because, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of the Company’s common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). On January 12, 2023, Nasdaq notified the Company that due to the resignations from the Company’s board, audit committee and compensation committee on November 17, 2022 (“ Corporate Governance Deficiencies ”), the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq’s independent director, audit committee and compensation committee requirements as set forth in Listing Rule 5605. The Company timely submitted its plan of compliance with respect to the Corporate Governance Deficiencies by February 27, 2023 as required by the Nasdaq. However, pursuant to Listing Rule 5810(c)(2)(A), the Corporate Governance Deficiencies serve as an additional and separate basis for delisting and the Company. On February 21, 2023, consistent with the Company’s previously announced intention to request an appeal of the Staff Determination by requesting a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “ Panel ”) to stay the suspension of the Company’s securities and the filing of the Form 25-NSE with the SEC (the “ Hearing ”), the Company appealed the Staff Determination to the Panel, and requested that the stay of delisting, which otherwise would expire on March 8, 2023, pursuant to Listing Rule 5815(a)(1)(B), be extended until the Panel issued a final decision on the matter. The Nasdaq granted the Company’s request to extend the stay, pending the Hearing scheduled for March 30, 2023, and a final determination regarding the Company’s listing status. The Company is required to address the Additional Delinquency, the Delinquent Filings, and the Corporate Governance Deficiencies before the Panel. Although the Company is working diligently to file the Delinquent Filings and Additional Delinquency, there can be no assurance that they will be filed prior to the Hearing. If the Company’s appeal is denied or the Company fails to timely regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards, the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting on the Nasdaq. On March 30, 2023, the Company had its hearing with the Nasdaq, which indicated that a decision with respect to the Company’s listing status on the Nasdaq would be rendered within two weeks. On April 12, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq indicating that the Company had not yet regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule, which serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from the Nasdaq. The letter further indicated that the Panel will consider this matter in its decision regarding the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In that regard, the Nasdaq indicated that the Company should present its views with respect to this additional delinquency to the Panel in writing no later than April 19, 2023. The Company offers no assurance that its request to be granted further time to file its Delinquent Filings, regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule and redress its Corporate Governance Deficiencies and to remain listed on the Nasdaq will be granted. Industry Overview Over the next five years, we believe that most stadia, schools, academies, pro teams, colleges, clubs, facilities, courts, fields, rinks and pitches will begin transitioning to and becoming “Smart” with connected, AI (artificial intelligence) based video and analytics technology, as well as, membership based facilities more widely incorporating the use of facility management and court booking software products - all being key component for driving broader engagement with consumers to offer an enhanced degree of operational efficiency and providing greater enjoyment to players in their chosen sport. Over the course of the next twelve months, we will be focused on the global tennis, padel tennis and pickleball as our primary target markets. The ITF cites the global tennis market as having 80 million active participants, with many million other consumers being acknowledged as avid fans of the sport. Pickleball is now widely recognized as the fastest growing sport in the United States with over 5 million regular players and Padel Tennis is also seeing significant participant growth throughout Europe and South America primarily. Currently it is estimated that there are up to as many as 10 million Padel players globally. Manufacturing and Distribution Production of the Slinger Bag Launcher is based in southern China. We are engaged with 10 individual part suppliers, and all of these parts come together at our contracted assembly facility in Xiamen, China, where the Launchers are assembled and quality control checked before being processed for global distribution. 5 Our manufacturing capacity is estimated at approximately 5,000 units monthly. This capacity will be shared across our three Slinger Bag Launcher products– tennis, pickleball, and padel. The pickleball product has been introduced to the market in March 2023 and this will be followed by Padel tennis in June 2023. In developing our Slinger Bag tennis, pickleball and padel launchers, we have designed the three products that share many common parts. We expect this to aid efficiency of the production process. We have engaged an independent and experienced vendor management company to manage all of our production activities, our quality control process and quality assurance activities, both across our individual vendor partners and at the assembly facility. These processes have been developed together with the Company with a goal of producing consistently high-quality and high performing products. We have a global distribution network, and all shipments made to distributor markets outside of the United States and Canada are shipped free-on-board (“FOB”) Xiamen, China, thereby immediately becoming the responsibility of the distributor. South American distributors are typically serviced from our US warehouse locations and European distributors are able to place replacement orders through a small third-party distribution facility located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. Additionally, we ship our Slinger-Dunlop co-branded tennis balls from Dunlop (our supplier) to the United States or to Rotterdam for further distribution through our distribution network. Gameface AI is a software-as-a-service company and, as such, has no direct procurement or supply chain requirements. Strategy Slinger Bag Launchers for tennis, pickleball and padel In introducing the Slinger Bag Launcher, we saw an opportunity to disrupt the traditional tennis market. Through until March 2023 Slinger Bag has been a single product company marketing its Tennis Launcher for tennis players of all ages and abilities. Currently, approximately 70% of Slinger Bag Tennis Launcher revenues are generated through our direct-to-consumer strategy in North America. We operate a third-party distributor structure in all markets outside of North America. Distributor partners have exclusive territories and / or product categories. We endeavor to partner with distributors who have a recognized background within the tennis, pickleball or padel industries for their respective market, along with them having the requisite financial capacity and service infrastructure to grow the Slinger Bag brand through a similar go-to-market strategy as is operated directly by the Slinger Bag business in North America. All distributor partners purchase Slinger Bag Launchers at a discounted distributor pricing structure, which is considerably lower than the retail price, and are responsible for placing their product orders up to 3 months in advance of their delivery requirement. The United States market will remain predominantly a direct-to-consumer market for Slinger Bag for Tennis and for Pickleball. As the largest tennis and pickleball market in the world with 17.4 million tennis players and over 5 million pickleball players, the United States is a key market both to establish the Slinger brand and to drive demonstrable growth. Direct-to-consumer sales are further supplemented by one or more third-party internet sites focused on either the tennis or the pickleball market. This market is served by third-party logistics facilities in West Columbia, South Carolina and Reno, Nevada, which are operated by one of our logistics partners. All end consumer service support is currently managed by a small service team based in Canada. All distributor partners are managed and supported by our distributor manager located in Israel. 6 Gameface Gameface provides access to analytics data by building an automated AI platform to analyze and extract data from sport videos across tennis, baseball, cricket and other sport verticals. Gameface AI’s core capabilities are delivered through compatible camera or smart phone, which allows us to build scalable solutions for the sports market without relying on specific hardware or camera types. We envision Gameface as a product that will be at the heart of ‘powering’ the Connexa portfolio of brands. We also see Gameface technology as a driver of real-time data and analytics for a wide range of sports, brands and other strategic partners. Gameface initially focused its technology on the cricket and soccer markets, where it has built an automated platform to extract various data points from live and archived match footage. Since September 2021, the Gameface team has been dedicated to building its technology to deliver performance insights in tennis, which will form the core of our new Slinger app. Later in 2023, Gameface plans to revisit the cricket vertical and enhance its technology offering based on the advances made in tennis AI tools available through the combined company, which will broaden and deepen its reach across the cricket world. In 2023 and going forward, Gameface expects to dedicate resources to baseball analytics and identifying strategic partners for other team sports such as basketball and soccer. We also intend to license technology to validated global partners for direct-to-consumer applications. PlaySight PlaySight provides high quality live streaming and video-on-demand services for over 20 different sports, operating primarily in the United States and Europe. Through its market leading camera and analytics software technologies PlaySight delivers superior quality live streaming of both individual and team sports. Playsight is used by 50% of professional NBA teams as part of their training facility programs and is available across 80% of D1 college campuses, as well as, by many professional sports academies and premier club facilities.

Foundation software offers the full spectrum of services required by facility management providing a 1-stop system to manage their overall facility as well as specifically to manage their court booking and adult / youth / junior programs and camps. Foundation software is also integrated with the Square payment platform providing facilities with their POS solution. The software is delivered through bespoke web and app platforms making Foundation unique in its ability to access facility members directly within the facility management software space. Connexa Brand Marketing With the go-to-market strategy for Slinger Bag focused on its core North American tennis and pickleball markets as a direct-to-consumer business e-commerce brand, all marketing activity and advertising media is centered around a consumer push to the Slinger Bag e-commerce platform at https://www.connexasports.com/ and then working to convert brand or product interest to purchases. Based on the target tennis and pickleball demographic, our marketing focus for the brand centers is around three core marketing pillars: digital advertising; influencers and brand ambassadors. Our marking efforts also focus on targeted social media platforms. 7 Using demographic data for tennis and pickleball and following a period of advertising testing, our digital advertising spend focused mainly towards Facebook and Google platforms. In addition to our paid marketing activities, Slinger Bag relies on the expertise of our small internal team to build out a network of ‘followers’ across various social media platforms – mainly Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. Today, Slinger Bag has consumers who are fans of our brand and fully engaged in generating social media content through their own means. The Slinger Bag brand ambassador team has also been integral to the overall brand marketing strategy in their support of our product by creating and sharing content, representing themselves as affiliated with the brand and through their personal appearances at events, tournaments, etc. During the fiscal year that ended on April 30, 2022, our ambassador team included: Tommy Hass, Robert Bryan, Darren Cahill, Eugenie Bouchard, Patrick Mouratoglou, Dustin Brown and the Jensen brothers. The ambassador arrangements with Tommy Haas and the Bryan Brothers and have terminated prior to the date hereof and the balance will terminate by May 25, 2023, after which we will no longer have any active tennis ambassadors. Similar prominent ambassadors are being identified for pickleball and padel and are expected to be in place over the coming months. Outside of this core marketing strategy, Slinger Bag has taken advantage of numerous opportunities to partner with key brands in the tennis and pickleball spaces or to advertise at key tennis or pickleball related events. Additionally, through our management team’s close association to the tennis industry, we have been able to provide many touring professionals with a Slinger Bag Launcher for their personal use. These arrangements were non-contractual product seeding opportunities. Players have occasionally posted on social media about their use of the Slinger Bag Launcher, including tennis player, Simona Halep. To support the Slinger Bag marketing program, we have engaged several agencies: ● Brand Nation, an influencer marketing agency based in London. Brand Nation leads our influencer programming globally. Influencers targeted are wide ranging and include leading sports, tennis, film, TV, music and blogger celebrities all known for the fact that they play tennis regularly and have a fan base in excess of 10,000 followers. All influencer activity is continually rolled back up to our social media platforms as a means of generating content, brand awareness and product interest. ● Ad Venture Media Group, a New York based PPC (pay-per-click) agency whose work is grounded in scientific analysis of consumer data and consumer trends. Ad Venture Media leads all digital advertising activities for Slinger Bag on a performance-based fee structure. ● We have partnered with Team HQS, who manages an affiliate marketing program geared towards US-based teaching professionals, players, juniors and events, in the United States tennis and pickleball markets. This target market is provided with unique affiliate marketing links and encouraged to create content and to share it on their social media accounts and in other such communities that they are connected to, in order to receive an affiliate marketing fee based on revenues generated by consumers purchasing Slinger Bag products attributable to them, via their direct link. Each of our distributor partners around the world are establishing their Slinger product distribution business as we would do if we were establishing a distribution subsidiary in each market. As such, each distributor adopts Slinger brand marketing programs while initiating new local concepts of their own. Efforts aimed at reaching the tennis player directly and ensuring that the Slinger brand message is consistent around the globe. Slinger Bag supports all of its brand distributors with full access to all of the company’s marketing partners, as well as direct contact to our internal marketing team. Our marketing budget is primarily funded by, or determined in accordance with, the distributor partner linked to the distributors purchase objectives. Each distributor executes local grassroots programs, including demonstration days, local teaching pro partnerships, specialist tennis network communications, providing Slinger product locally as necessary to local key market tennis, pickleball and padel influencers to further increase the intensity of the influencer effort. Typically, we support these activities with either discounted products or certain quantities of free products. Distributor marketing budgets are allocated to Google, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and other relevant websites or platforms in their region, and supported, approved and /or overseen by AdVenture Media Group where applicable. Brand Endorsements We have reached agreements with several globally recognized tennis players and coaches to become brand ambassadors. Each of the following brand ambassadors is or was either a world-ranked singles or doubles tennis player or, in the case of Patrick Mouratoglou and Darren Cahill, the coach of a number of world-ranked tennis players, who has a large number of fans and supporters and is active across many aspects of tennis today. 8 Tommy Haas (former ATP #2 player and current Tournament Director at the BNP Paribas Open) has been appointed the Slinger Bag Chief Ambassador. In this role Tommy has supported Slinger in building out our global ambassador team focused on identifying ambassadors in our key global business markets of Japan, Europe, Australia, China, Brazil and India. Tommy has also been very active supporting and promoting the Slinger Bag brand across the globe with personal appearances at events we sponsor and via online training and drill videos. Robert Bryan (member of the Bryan Brothers, well-known doubles team in the tennis world) has extended his ambassador agreements through 2023 and will continue to feature prominently in our marketing activities and messaging. Eugenie Bouchard, a former top 5 Canadian WTA player with a significant social media following. Patrick Mouratoglou, a prominent tennis coach globally and coach to Serena Williams, Simona Halep and Stefanos Tsitsipas. Darren Cahill, former coach to world #1 Simona Halep, current ESPN Grand Slam tennis analyst, former coach to Andre Agassi and Lleyton Hewitt. Dustin Brown, current ATP player. Luke & Murphy Jensen (Jensen brothers), a former #1 ranked doubles team. In similar fashion we are in the process of identifying relevant ambassadors to support our Pickleball and Padel category activities. We also engaged with the following organizations to promote our Slinger brand and products. Peter Burwash International (“PBI”), a United States-based, highly respected, global tennis services company set up by Peter Burwash some 35 years ago. PBI provides tennis programs and other tennis services to over 28 of the global luxury resorts. Slinger Launchers will be available to use at each resort and the PBI team will be actively promoting the Slinger brand as part of our affiliate marketing activity. Functional Tennis, an Ireland based social media tennis blog site with in excess of 250,000 followers. We are engaged with Functional Tennis in a variety of ways and are the presenting sponsor of its weekly tennis podcast. The Dink – a leading Pickleball platform with 250,000 active pickleball players on their database. Strategic Brand Partnerships Slinger Bag believes that building strong strategic partnerships across the sport of tennis underpins the credibility and awareness of the Slinger Bag brand. As such, we currently have several strategic partnerships across tennis. We believe these partnerships provide us significant levels of brand exposure and credibility driving mutually beneficial marketing campaigns aimed at reaching avid tennis players globally. Details of such partners announced and active today include: ● Dunlop: We have entered a strategic partnership with one of the most iconic tennis brands in the world, Dunlop, for the supply of co-branded Slinger-Dunlop tennis balls across the globe. 9 ● Peter Burwash International: An organization providing coaching and tennis services to high-level, high-quality hotels, resorts and tennis facilities across the globe. ● Mouratoglou Tennis Academy (MTA): A high profile tennis academy located in the south of France. Slinger Bag is the official ball launcher of the MTA. ● Tennis Europe: In partnership with Dunlop, Slinger Bag is the official tennis ball launcher of Tennis Europe. Tennis Europe provides a platform for aspiring junior tennis players to compete in age-group categorized events. ● Country Federations: Slinger Bag is an official partner of the UK Lawn Tennis Association (“LTA”). In similar vein, we are looking to deliver partnerships for the co-branded supply of Pickle Balls and Padel tennis Balls. Competition Slinger Bag Launcher There are currently no direct competitors with products that are similar to the Slinger Bag Launcher, based on its affordability and tennis bag functionality. There are, however, other companies that market traditional tennis ball machines, including the following brands: ● Spinshot ● Lobster Sports ● Spinfire ● MatchMate ● Sports Tutor ● Silent Partner ● Hydrogen Proton ● Playmate Gameface There are currently no competitors for our cricket and tennis analytics product that are similar to the cricket technique analysis app under development or the Slinger app in beta testing, based on functionality and affordability.

Seasonal Business The Connexa group of companies expects to experience minor fluctuations in aggregate sales volume during the year. We expect revenues in the first and fourth fiscal quarters to typically exceed those in the second and third fiscal quarters. However, the mix of product sales across our group may vary considerably from time to time as a result of changes in seasonal and geographic demand for tennis and other sports equipment and in connection with the timing of significant sporting events, such as any Grand Slam tennis tournament and, over time, other sports competitions and in relation to new product market launches. 11 Costs and Effects of Complying with Environmental Regulations Set forth below is a detailed chart of all our Product Certifications for key global markets covering battery, remote control (radio wave), and power charger. In addition, within the United States, we comply with the required California 65 regulations in respect to the materials used in the construction of its trolley bag. Government Regulation Both the Slinger Bag Launcher and the Slinger Oscillator meet all the United States government requirements for electrical, radio wave and battery standards, as well as having all necessary and required certifications to facilitate global marketing and sales of these products. 12 Research and Development Slinger Bag Slinger Bag is working with our vendor management partner, Stride Innovation, and our China based vendors to produce ball launchers for new market segments, such as Pickleball, Padel and Baseball/Softball. These efforts are collaborative and based on a detailed product brief and in-depth market and consumer research for each product category. The development timetable of the Slinger Bag Launcher for the new market segments from concept to market launch is 18 months and includes at least 2 rounds or in-market field testing. We are currently field testing our new our Baseball / Softball launchers, which are expected to be introduced to the market in 2024. We plan to introduce similar transportable, versatile and affordable ball launchers for cricket and other ball sports over the course of the next three years. In regard to development of our pending performance and analytics app, we have identified a combination of internal project leadership and the development team of Gameface to create Tennis specific analysis code for the app. We also contracted a focused design agency to build the road map for the user experience based on the technology being developed. Gameface Gameface is involved in additional research and development of building methods to extract data reliably and more accurately from videos. A large part of our research also includes identifying and associating extracted data points of athlete performance. Gameface is currently field testing its new data visualization techniques to represent data in tennis, cricket and football, which are expected to be introduced late in 2023 or early 2024. PlaySight PlaySight is primarily a B2B business today. Current R&D efforts are now focused on how to better deploy its technology to tennis consumers directly through mobile / handheld devices. Foundation Tennis Foundation Tennis is focused on re-engineering its software for mass scale deployment. 13 Quality Control Quality control is a critical function within our company. As a relatively new brand in the market, our business enterprise success will in part dependent on the quality and consistency of our products. Slinger Bag has engaged Stride-Innovation, a company with in-depth experience working with ball sport companies such as ours and knowledge, resources and experience in working with Chinese vendors of sports equipment. In partnership, together, we have created and documented quality guidelines, testing procedures and warranty processes. We have implemented an agreed quality audit process for all product parts being received and used by our product assembly vendor. All products go through a rigorous, statistically validated quality control testing approval process before being confirmed as available to be released for shipment to one of our distribution centers or to any of our distribution partners. We offer a limited warranty with all purchases in accordance with local market statutory regulations. This limited warranty can be further extended by the purchaser registering his/her unique product serial number at our website. Vendors Slinger Bag works only with and through third-party suppliers. Slinger Bag has a formal supply of service agreement in place with our vendor management partner, Stride-Innovation, for a wide range of support and services. We have a written agreement in place with our main vendor partner, Xiamen Ruicheng Industrial Design Co., Ltd. Stride-Innovation quality control teams regularly visit our vendor facilities and monitor production, employee conditions and welfare, and undertake quality control testing. We do not utilize or condone the use of child labor of any kind in the production of our products. Employees As at the date of this report, we have 8 full-time employees spread across Israel, USA, Australia, India and the UK. Management believes its relations with employees is good. We also hire part-time employees and engage consultants to support our operations as needed. Facilities Our principal office is located at 2709 N. Rolling Road, Suite 138, Windsor Mill, Maryland 21244. We entered into a lease for use of office space at this location effective September 1, 2019. This location is owned by Zeek Logistics, which is a company owned by Yonah Kalfa, who is a director, Chief Innovation Officer, and our largest shareholder. We do not pay any rent or fee to use this location. 14 COVID-19 Supply Issues Slinger Bag is a business fully reliant on China based vendors for manufacture of its product. Throughout the course of 2022 the flow of production was occasionally affected as the China government implemented regional lockdowns. As a company in the late part of 2021 we had anticipated potential issues and made a conscious decision to over produce product to store at our warehouse locations to mitigate any enforced production shutdowns. Over the course of 2022 and through the date of this report we have not experienced any significant supply chain issues in the availability of our product. Gameface, PlaySight and Foundation are primarily software based companies. As a result of the nature of their business, in the time that that we owned these companies we have not seen any material impact on their business of any Covid related issues. Ukraine War The impact of the Ukraine ware has been limited on the Company with the direct impact being seen through those distributors bordering the war zone who have seen a significant decline in demand. PlaySight is at risk of significant impact in regards to the war. The operate a Tier 1 and Tier 2 customer service operations and also employ a significant number of software consultants – all based inside Ukraine. During the period that PlaySight was under Connexa ownership there had not been any direct impact on the business. Gameface – no direct impact seen on this business to date. Foundation – no direct impact seen on this business to date. Going Concern Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes we will be able to realize our assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We have an accumulated deficit and more losses are anticipated in the ongoing development of the business. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon us generating profitable operations in the future and/or being able to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from related parties, and/or private placement of debt and/or common stock. There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force us to curtail substantially or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on our existing stockholders. In the Company’s fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2023, the Company divested PlaySight and 75% of its interest in Foundation Sports as the required monthly cash burn became increasingly difficult to manage as inflation rose and the cost of manufacturing the Company’s non-technological products grew. As a result, the Company sold PlaySight back to its original owners of in November 2022, and the Company sold most (75%) of Foundation Tennis back to their original owners, with an option to purchase any remaining interests. The Company believes these divestitures will bring about greater cash flow and result in a reduction in net loss from operations. We intend to overcome the circumstances that impact its ability to remain a going concern through a combination of the commencement of revenues, with interim cash flow deficiencies being addressed through additional equity and debt financing. We anticipate raising additional funds through public or private financing, strategic relationships or other arrangements in the near future to support its business operations; however, we may not have commitments from third parties for a sufficient amount of additional capital. We cannot be certain that any such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and its failure to raise capital when needed could limit its ability to continue its operations. Our ability to obtain additional funding will determine its ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to secure additional financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance, results of operations and stock price and require it to curtail or cease operations, sell off its assets, seek protection from its creditors through bankruptcy proceedings, or otherwise. Furthermore, additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of shares of our common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants, and strategic relationships, if necessary, to raise additional funds, and may require that we relinquish valuable rights. ITEM 1A. Risk Factors You should carefully consider the risks described below and other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the financial statements and related notes that appear at the end of this report, before deciding to invest in our securities. These risks should be considered in conjunction with any other information included herein, including in conjunction with forward-looking statements made herein. If any of the following risks actually occur, they could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition and operating results. The following discussion of risks is not all-inclusive but is designed to highlight what we believe are the material factors to consider when evaluating our business and expectations. These factors could cause our future results to differ materially from our historical results and from expectations reflected in forward-looking statements. Risks Related to Our Business, Operations, and Industry We depend on the strength of our brands. We expect to derive substantially all of our net sales from sales of branded products and services we own, including Slinger and Gameface, and those we have agreements to license technology, including PlaySight and Foundation Sports. The reputation and integrity of our brands are essential to the success of our business. We believe that our consumers value the status and reputation of brands we promote, and the superior quality, performance, functionality and durability that our brands represent. Building, maintaining and enhancing the status and reputation of our brands’ image is important to expanding our consumer base. Our continued success and growth depend on our ability to protect and promote our brands, which, in turn, depends on factors such as the quality, performance, functionality and durability of our products and services, our communication activities, including advertising and public relations, and our management of the consumer experience, including direct interfaces through customer service and warranty repairs. We may decide to make substantial investments in these areas in order to maintain and enhance our brand, and such investments may not be successful. 15 Additionally, in order to expand our reach, we engage with third-party distributors. To the extent those third-party distributors fail to comply with our operating guidelines, we may not be successful in protecting our brand image. Product defects, product recalls, counterfeit products and ineffective marketing are among the potential threats to the strength of our brands and to protect our brands’ status we may need to make substantial expenditures to mitigate the impact of such threats. Moreover, if we fail to continue to innovate to ensure that our products are deemed to achieve superior levels of function, quality and design, or to otherwise be sufficiently distinguishable from our competitors’ products, or if we fail to manage the growth of our on-line sales in a way that protects the high-end nature of our brands, the value of our brands may be diluted, and we may not be able to maintain our premium position and pricing or sales volumes, which could adversely affect our financial performance and business. We believe that maintaining and enhancing our brands image in new markets where we have limited brand recognition is important to expanding our consumer base. If we are unable to maintain or enhance our brands in new markets, then our growth strategy could be adversely affected. The cost of raw materials, labor or freight could lead to an increase in our cost of sales and cause our results of operations to suffer . Increasing costs for raw materials, labor or freight could make our sourcing processes more costly and negatively affect our gross margin and profitability. Labor costs at our independent manufacturers’ sites have been increasing and it is unlikely that these increases will abate. Wage and price inflation in our source countries could cause unanticipated price increases, which may be significant. Such price increases by our independent manufacturers could be rapid in the absence of manufacturing contracts. Energy costs have fluctuated dramatically in the past and may fluctuate in the future. Rising energy costs may increase our costs of transporting our products for distribution and the costs of products that we source from independent suppliers. Further, many of our products are made of materials, such as high impact plastics, plastic-injected molded parts, and lightweight high tensile strength metals, that are either petroleum-based or require energy to construct and transport. Costs for transportation of such materials have been increasing as the price of petroleum increases. Our independent suppliers and manufacturers may attempt to pass these cost increases on to us, and our relationships with them may be harmed or lost if we refuse to pay such increases, which could lead to product shortages. If we pay such increases, we may not be able to offset them through increases in our pricing and other means, which could adversely affect our ability to maintain our targeted gross margins. If we attempt to pass the increases on to consumers, our sales may be adversely affected. Our international operations involve inherent risks which could result in harm to our business. All of our equipment is manufactured outside of the U.S. with a large volume of our products being also sold outside of the U.S. Accordingly, we are subject to the risks generally associated with global trade and doing business abroad, which include foreign laws and regulations, varying consumer preferences across geographic regions, political unrest, disruptions or delays in cross-border shipments and changes in economic conditions in countries in which our products are manufactured or where we sell products. This includes, for example, the uncertainty surrounding the effect of Brexit, including changes to the legal and regulatory framework that apply to the United Kingdom and its relationship with the European Union, as well as new and proposed changes affecting tax laws and trade policy in the U.S. and elsewhere as further described in other risks in this section. The U.S. presidential administration has indicated a focus on policy reforms that discourage U.S. corporations from outsourcing manufacturing and production activities to foreign jurisdictions, including through tariffs or penalties on goods manufactured outside the U.S., which may require us to change the way we conduct business and adversely affect our results of operations. We develop products in Israel and our chief marketing officer is located in Israel and, therefore, our business, financial condition and results of operation may be adversely affected by political, economic and military instability in Israel. A portion of our operations, including product development, is based in Israel. Our research and development is conducted through our Israeli subsidiary and our chief marketing officer and chief innovation officer are both located in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel directly affect our business. Political, economic and military conditions in Israel may directly affect our business. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its neighboring countries, and between Israel and the Hamas and Hezbollah extremist groups. In addition, several countries, principally in the Middle East, restrict doing business with Israel, and additional countries may impose restrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies whether as a result of hostilities in the region or otherwise. Any hostilities involving Israel, terrorist activities, political instability or violence in the region or the interruption or curtailment of trade or transport between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations and adversely affect the market price of our shares. Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of an event associated with the security situation in the Middle East. Although the Israeli government is currently committed to covering the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, there can be no assurance that this government coverage will be maintained, or if maintained, will be sufficient to compensate us fully for damages incurred. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 16 Further, our operations could be disrupted by the obligations of our employees to perform military service. Our chief marketing officer is subject to the obligation to perform reserve military duty. In response to increased tension and hostilities in the region, there have been, at times, call-ups of military reservists, and it is possible that there will be additional call-ups in the future. Our operations could be disrupted by the absence of these employees due to military service. Such disruption could harm our business and operating results. Popular uprisings in various countries in the Middle East and North Africa are affecting the political stability of those countries. Such instability may lead to deterioration in the political and trade relationships that exist between the State of Israel and these countries. Furthermore, several countries, principally in the Middle East, restrict doing business with Israel and companies with an Israeli presence, and additional countries may impose restrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies if hostilities in the region continue or intensify. Such restrictions may seriously limit our ability to sell our products to customers in those countries. Our manufacturing takes place in China and is susceptible to shutdowns and delays caused by the Coronavirus and other diseases and epidemics. Additionally, we rely on independent manufacturers and suppliers. As at the date hereof, one of our manufacturing facilities is located in southern China. Following the outbreak of the Coronavirus our manufacturing facility was shut down for three months, which caused some unforeseen delays in manufacturing and delivery of our products. However, there may be further outbreaks of the Coronavirus and other diseases and epidemics, which may cause further delays and shutdowns. This, in turn, will negatively affect our revenue and increase our expenses and costs. We do not control our independent manufacturers and suppliers or their labor and other business practices. Violations of labor, environmental or other laws by an independent manufacturer or supplier, or divergence of an independent manufacturer’s or supplier’s labor or other practices from those generally accepted as ethical or appropriate in the U.S., could disrupt the shipments of our products or draw negative publicity for us, thereby diminishing the value of our brand, reducing demand for our products and adversely affecting our net income. Additionally, since we do not manufacture our products, we are subject to risks associated with inventory and product quality-control. Further, we have not historically entered into manufacturing contracts with our manufacturers; instead, we have hired them on an ad hoc basis. Identifying a suitable manufacturer is an involved process that requires us to become satisfied with the prospective manufacturer’s quality control, responsiveness and service capabilities, financial stability and labor practices. While we have business continuity and contingency plans for alternative sourcing, we may be unable, in the event of a significant disruption in our sourcing, to locate alternative manufacturers or suppliers of comparable quality at an acceptable price, or at all, which could result in product shortages or decreases in product quality, and adversely affect our net sales, gross margin, net income, customer relationships and our reputation. We rely heavily on supply chain reliability and predictability and continued disruption in our supply chain could have a material adverse impact on operations. We rely heavily on supply chain reliability and predictability in producing, transporting and delivering our products. The COVID-19 pandemic, Ukraine war, inflationary trends, shifts in consumer purchasing patterns, availability of transport, labor shortages in the shipping, trucking, and warehousing industries, port strikes, infrastructure congestion, equipment shortages and other factors have all contributed to delivery delays, greater costs and uncertainty in arranging and scheduling transport of our products. If we are unable to reliably and consistently arrange shipment and storage of our products, we may be unable to ship, deliver and store our products in which case, we will have to reverse sales and issue refunds to purchasers of our products. Changes in U.S. and international trade policies, including to import tariffs and trade policies and agreements, to address supply chain issues or otherwise could also have a significant impact on our activities both in the United States and internationally. Supply chain disruptions, both domestic and international, have adversely impacted our operations. Continued disruptions in our supply chain and adverse consequences from aggressive trade policies could have a material adverse impact on our profitability and financial performance. We face risks associated with operating in international markets. We operate in a global marketplace and international sales growth is a key element of our growth strategy. We are subject to risks associated with our international operations, including, but not limited to: ● Foreign currency exchange rates; ● Economic or governmental instability in foreign markets in which we operate or in those countries from which we source our merchandise; ● Unexpected changes in laws, regulatory requirements, taxes or trade laws; ● Increases in the cost of transporting goods globally; ● Acts of war, terrorist attacks, outbreaks of contagious disease and other events over which we have no control; and ● Changes in foreign or domestic legal and regulatory requirements resulting in the imposition of new or more onerous trade restrictions, tariffs, duties, taxes, embargoes, exchange or other government controls. 17 Any of these risks could have an adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or growth strategy. Furthermore, some of our international operations are conducted in parts of the world that experience corruption to some degree. Our employees and wholesalers could take actions that violate applicable anti-corruption laws or regulations. Violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could have an adverse impact on our reputation, our results of operations or our financial position. Foreign exchange movements may also negatively affect the relative purchasing power of consumers and their willingness to purchase discretionary premium goods, such as our products, which would adversely affect our net sales. We do not currently use the derivative markets to hedge foreign currency fluctuations. The growth of our business depends on the successful execution of our growth strategy, and our efforts to expand internationally by growing our e-commerce business. We are focused on developing an integrated Play and Learn platform under our Connexa brand. The Platform will bring together our owned offerings of Gameface AI and Slinger Bag, and incorporate elements of our licensed offering of PlaySight and Foundation Sports, under the umbrella of the Connexa brand. We believe our success will in large part depend on our ability to develop a cohesive platform that integrates elements of performance analysis from each. We may face difficulties integrating the technology and offerings from each brand in order create a cohesive business. For example, users of the Slinger Bag may view us a sporting goods company and choose not to engage with our technology offerings from the Gameface AI brand, and users of our Gameface AI app services may not purchase our ball launchers. Our current growth strategy depends on our ability to continue to expand our reach geographically in a number of international regions in Asia, Europe, North America, Africa and Australia. This growth strategy is contingent upon our ability to continually introduce our products to new markets. The implementation of higher tariffs, quotas or other restrictive trade policies in any international regions in which we seek to operate could adversely affect our ability to commence new international operations, which could have an adverse impact on our growth strategy. Further, consumer demand behavior, as well as tastes and purchasing trends, may differ in various countries and, as a result, sales of our products may not be, or may take time to become, successful, and gross margins on those net sales may not be in line with what we currently experience. Our ability to execute our international growth strategy, especially where we are not yet established, depends on our ability to understand regional market demographics, and we may not be able to do so. If we are unable to develop the integrated Play and Learn platform and expand our business internationally, our growth strategy and our financial results could be materially adversely affected. If we are unable to respond effectively to changes in market trends and consumer preferences, our market share, net sales and profitability could be adversely affected. The success of our business depends on our ability to identify the key product and market trends and bring products to market in a timely manner that satisfy the current preferences of a broad range of consumers (either by enhancing existing products or by developing new product offerings). Consumer preferences differ across and within different parts of the world, and shift over time in response to changing aesthetics and economic circumstances. We believe that our success in developing products that are innovative and that meet our consumers’ functional needs is an important factor in our image as a premium brand, and in our ability to charge premium prices. We may not be able to anticipate or respond to changes in consumer preferences, and, even if we do anticipate and respond to such changes, we may not be able to bring to market in a timely manner enhanced or new products that meet these changing preferences. If we fail to anticipate or respond to changes in consumer preferences or fail to bring products to market in a timely manner that satisfy new preferences, our market share and our net sales and profitability could be adversely affected. We may be unable to appeal to new consumers while maintaining the loyalty of our core consumers. Part of our growth strategy is to introduce new consumers, including young consumers, to the Connexa brand. If we are unable to attract new consumers, including young consumers, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected as our core consumers’ age increases and purchasing frequency decrease. Initiatives and strategies intended to position our brand to appeal to new and young consumers may not appeal to our core consumers and may diminish the appeal of our brand to our core consumers, resulting in reduced core consumer loyalty. If we are unable to successfully appeal to new and young consumers while maintaining our brand’s image with our core consumers, then our net sales and our brand image may be adversely affected. 18 Our business could suffer if we are unable to maintain our website or manage our inventory effectively. We employ a distribution strategy that is heavily dependent upon our website and third-party distributors’ e- commerce websites. The effectiveness of our e-commerce strategy depends on our ability to manage our inventory and our distribution processes effectively so as to ensure that our products are available in sufficient quantities and thereby prevent lost sales. If we are not able to maintain our e-commerce channels, or if we are not able to effectively manage our inventory, we could experience a decline in net sales, as well as excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for other products. In addition, the failure to deliver our products to customers in accordance with our delivery schedules could damage our relationship with these customers and lead to negative feedback being posted on e-commerce sites. Consequently, our net sales, profitability and the implementation of our growth strategy could be adversely affected. We plan to use cash provided by operating activities to fund our expanding business and execute our growth strategy and may require additional capital, which may not be available to us. We expect our business to rely on net cash provided by our future operating activities as our primary source of liquidity. To support our business and execute our growth strategy as planned, we will need to generate significant amounts of cash from operations in order to purchase inventory, pay personnel, invest in research and development, and pay for the increased costs associated with operating as a public company. Operating cash flows were weak earlier this year and, as a result, we had to significantly curtail operations and dispose of our PlaySight and Foundation Sports operations. See “Item1. Business—Recent Developments” for more information. If our business does not generate cash flow from operating activities sufficient to fund these activities, and if sufficient funds are not otherwise available to us, we will need to seek additional capital, through debt or equity financings, to fund our growth. Conditions in the credit markets (such as availability of finance and fluctuations in interest rates) may make it difficult for us to obtain such financing on attractive terms or even at all. Additional debt financing that we may undertake, may be expensive and might impose on us covenants that restrict our operations and strategic initiatives, including limitations on our ability to incur liens or additional debt, pay dividends, repurchase our capital stock, make investments and engage in merger, consolidation and asset sale transactions. Equity financings may be on terms that are dilutive or potentially dilutive to our shareholders, and the prices at which new investors would be willing to purchase our equity securities may be lower than the price per share of our common stock. The holders of new securities may also have rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of existing holders of common stock. If new sources of financing are required, but are unattractive, insufficient or unavailable, then we will be required to modify our growth and operating plans based on available funding, if any, which would inhibit our growth and could harm our business. Our extended supply chain requires long lead times and relies heavily on manufacturers in Asia. We rely heavily on manufacturers in Asia, which requires long lead times to get goods to markets. The long lead times will require us to carry extra inventory to avoid out-of-stock scenarios. In the event of a decline in demand for our products, due to general economic conditions or other factors, we may be forced to liquidate this extra inventory at lower margins or at a loss. In addition, consumers’ tastes can change between the time a product is designed and the time it takes to get to market. If the designs are not popular with consumers, it could also result in the need to liquidate the inventories at lower margins or at a loss, which would adversely affect our results of operations. We depend on existing members of management and key employees to implement key elements in our strategy for growth, and the failure to retain them or to attract appropriately qualified new personnel could affect our ability to implement our growth strategy successfully. The successful implementation of our growth strategy depends in part on our ability to retain our experienced management team and key employees and on our ability to attract appropriately qualified new personnel. For instance, our chief executive officer has extensive experience running branded sporting goods. The loss of any key member of our management team or other key employees could hinder or delay our ability to implement our growth strategy effectively. Further, if we are unable to attract appropriately qualified new personnel, including a chief financial officer, we may not be successful in implementing our growth strategy. In either instance, our profitability and financial performance could be adversely affected. We do not employ traditional advertising channels, and if we fail to adequately market our brand through product introductions and other means of promotion, our business could be adversely affected. Our marketing strategy depends on our ability to promote our brand’s message by using online advertising and social media, and possibly the use of newspapers and magazines to promote new product introductions in a cost-effective manner. We do not employ traditional advertising channels such as billboards, television and radio. If our marketing efforts are not successful at attracting new consumers and increasing purchasing frequency by our existing consumers, there may be no cost-effective marketing channels available to us for the promotion of our brand. If we increase our spending on advertising, or initiate spending on traditional advertising, our expenses will rise, and our advertising efforts may not be successful. In addition, if we are unable to successfully and cost-effectively employ advertising channels to promote our brand to new consumers and new markets, our growth strategy may be adversely affected. 19 We rely significantly on information technology to operate our business. Any significant security breach of our confidential information of our customers, applications, technology, networks, or other systems critical to our operations, or failure to comply with privacy and security laws and regulations could damage our reputation, brands and business. We are heavily dependent on information technology systems and networks, including the Internet and third-party services (“Information Technology Systems”), across our supply chain, including product design, production, forecasting, ordering, manufacturing, transportation, sales and distribution, as well as for processing financial information for external and internal reporting purposes, operations and other business activities. Information Technology Systems are critical to many of our operating activities and our business processes and they may be negatively impacted by any service interruption or shutdown. For example, our ability to effectively manage and maintain our inventory and to ship products to customers on a timely basis depends significantly on the reliability of these Information Technology Systems. We rely on a third party systems provider to manage all our company data and transactions, record our financial transactions and manage our operations. The failure of these systems to operate effectively, including as a result of security breaches, viruses, hackers, malware, natural disasters, vendor business interruptions or other causes, or failure to properly maintain, protect, repair or upgrade systems, or problems with transitioning to upgraded or replacement systems could cause delays in product fulfillment and reduced efficiency of our operations, could require additional capital to remediate the problem which may not be sufficient to cover all eventualities, and may have an adverse effect on our reputation, results of operations and financial condition. We also use Information Technology Systems to process financial information and results of operations for internal reporting purposes and to comply with regulatory financial reporting, legal and tax requirements. If Information Technology Systems suffer severe damage, disruption or shutdown and our business continuity plans, or those of our vendors, do not effectively resolve the issues in a timely manner, we could experience delays in reporting our financial results, which could result in lost revenues and profits, as well as reputational damage. Furthermore, we depend on Information Technology Systems and personal data collection for digital marketing, digital commerce, consumer engagement and the marketing and use of our digital products and services. We also rely on our ability to engage in electronic communications throughout the world between and among our employees as well as with other third parties, including customers, suppliers, vendors and consumers. Any interruption in Information Technology Systems may impede our ability to engage in the digital space and result in lost revenues, damage to our reputation, and loss of users. In connection with various facets of our business, we collect and use a variety of personal data related to our customers. Our failure to prevent security breaches could damage our reputation and brands and substantially harm our business and results of operations. On our website, a majority of the sales are billed to our consumers’ credit card accounts directly, orders are shipped to a consumer’s address, and consumers log on using their email address. In such transactions, maintaining complete security for the transmission of confidential information on our website, such as consumers’ credit card numbers and expiration dates, personal information and billing addresses is essential to maintaining consumer confidence. In addition, we hold certain private information about our consumers, such as their names, addresses, phone numbers and browsing and purchasing records. We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties to effect the secure transmission of confidential information, including credit card numbers. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments may result in a compromise or breach of the technology used by us to protect consumer transaction data. In addition, any party who is able to illicitly obtain a user’s password could potentially access the user’s transaction data or personal information. We may not be able to prevent third parties, such as hackers or criminal organizations, from stealing information provided by our consumers to us through our website. In addition, our third-party merchants and delivery service providers may violate their confidentiality obligations and disclose information about our consumers. Any compromise of our security or material violation of a non-disclosure obligation could damage our reputation and brand and expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability, which could substantially harm our business and results of operations. In addition, anyone who is able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our operations. Moreover, the platform and applications that we use to operate our business are highly technical and complex and may now or in the future contain undetected errors, bugs, or vulnerabilities. Some errors in our code may only be discovered after the code has been deployed. Any errors, bugs or vulnerabilities discovered in our code after deployment, inability to identify the cause or causes of performance problems within an acceptable period of time or difficultly maintaining and improving the performance of our platform, particularly during peak usage times, could result in damage to our reputation or brand, loss of revenues, or liability for damages, any of which could adversely affect our business and financial results. To the extent that we do not effectively address capacity constraints, upgrade our systems as needed and continually develop our technology and network architecture to accommodate actual and anticipated changes in technology, our business and operating results may be harmed. Global economic, political and industry conditions constantly change and unfavorable conditions may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. We are a global company with worldwide operations. Volatile economic, political and market conditions, such as political or economic instability, civil unrest, trade sanctions, acts of terrorism in the regions or hostilities, including the recent conflict between Russia and Ukraine, in which we operate may have a negative impact on our operating results and our ability to achieve our business objectives. We may not have insight into economic and political trends that could emerge and negatively affect our business. In addition, significant or volatile changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies may have a material adverse impact upon our liquidity, revenues, costs and operating results. 20 Additionally, natural disasters and public health emergencies, such as extreme weather events and the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine War, could have a significant adverse effect on our business, including interruption of our business operations, supply chain disruption, endangerment of our personnel, and other delays or losses of materials and results. The Russian-Ukrainian Conflict may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results. In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. The specific impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows is not determinable as of the date hereof. However, to the extent that such military action spreads to other countries, intensifies, or otherwise remains active, such action could have an impact on the broader macroeconomic impact and therefore, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. If the Russia-Ukraine conflict continues, the U.S., the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions could impose wider economic and trade sanctions as well as export restrictions, which could impact our business opportunities. In addition, our contractors may take actions in violation of such policies and applicable law, and we could be held ultimately responsible. If we are held responsible for a violation of U.S. or other countries’ sanctions laws, we may be subject to various penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Our products face intense competition. We are a sports equipment and technology company delivering products and technologies and the relative popularity of tennis, pickleball and Padel tennis and other various sports activities and changing design trends affect the demand for our products. The sports equipment industry and sports-related technology industry are both are highly competitive both in the U.S. and worldwide. We compete internationally with a significant number of athletic and sports equipment companies and sports-related technology companies, including sports-related technology companies, including large companies having diversified lines of athletic and sports equipment and sports technology products. We also compete with other companies for the production capacity of independent manufacturers that produce our products. Our online digital e-commerce operations compete with brand wholesalers or specialist retailers. Product offerings, technologies, marketing expenditures (including expenditures for advertising and endorsements), pricing, costs of production, customer service, digital commerce platforms and social media presence are areas of intense competition. This, in addition to rapid changes in technology and consumer preferences in the markets for athletic and sports equipment, constitute significant risk factors in our operations. In addition, the competitive nature of retail including shifts in the ways in which consumers are shopping, and the rising trend of digital commerce, constitutes a risk factor implicating our online and wholesale operations. If we do not adequately and timely anticipate and respond to our competitors, our costs may increase or the consumer demand for our products may decline significantly. The AI-based technology market is new and unproven, and it may decline or experience limited growth, which would adversely affect our ability to fully realize the potential of our platforms. The AI-based technology market is relatively new and evaluating the size and scope of the market is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. We believe that our future success will depend in large part on the continued growth of this market. The utilization of our app platform by users is untested, and users may not recognize the need for, or benefits of, this app platform, which may prompt them to cease use of our platform or decide to adopt alternative products and services to satisfy their cognitive computing search and analytics requirements. In order to expand our business and extend our market position, we intend to focus our marketing and sales efforts on educating users about the benefits and technological capabilities of our platforms and the applications of our platform to the specific needs of customers in different market verticals. Our ability to access and expand the market that our platform is designed to address depends upon a number of factors, including the cost, performance and perceived value of our platforms. Market opportunity estimates are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates, including our internal analysis and industry experience. The market for our platform may fail to grow significantly or be unable to meet the level of growth we expect. As a result, we may experience lower-than-expected demand for our products and services due to lack of customer acceptance, technological challenges, competing products and services, decreases in spending by current and prospective customers, weakening economic conditions and other causes. If our market does not experience significant growth, or if demand for our products does not increase in line with our projections, then our business, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected. We rely on technical innovation and high-quality products to compete in the market for our products. Research and development plays a key role in technical innovation. We rely upon specialists in the fields of electrical and mechanical engineering, industrial design, sustainability and related fields, as well as other experts to develop and test cutting-edge performance products. While we strive to produce products that help to enhance player performance, if we fail to introduce technical innovation in our products, consumer demand for our products could decline, and if we experience problems with the quality of our products, we may incur substantial expense to remedy the problems. With the acquisition of Gameface and licensing agreements with PlaySight and Foundation, we are slowly transforming from a sports products only company to offering an additional sports technology platform focused on the Play & Learn Platform. If we are unable to successfully integrate this new technology with our existing products, we may not realize the benefits of the Gameface acquisition and / or our relationships with PlaySight and Foundation, and our business may be materially adversely affected. 21 Prior to our acquisition of Gameface and our licensing agreement with PlaySight, we focused on the production and sale of the Slinger Bag. Now our focused has shifted to the Play and Learn integrated platform which includes the analysis and AI offered by Gameface. The Play and Learn Platform requires integration of the capabilities of our existing business with those of Gameface. we may not realize the benefits of the Gameface acquisition and our business may be materially adversely affected. Failure to continue to obtain or maintain high-quality endorsers of our products could harm our business. We establish relationships with professional athletes, as well as other public figures such as teaching pros and influencers, to develop, evaluate and promote our products, as well as establish product authenticity with consumers. However, as competition in our industry has increased, the costs associated with establishing and retaining such sponsorships and other relationships have increased. If we are unable to maintain our current associations with professional athletes, or other public figures, or to do so at a reasonable cost, we could lose the high visibility or on-field authenticity associated with our products, and we may be required to modify and substantially increase our marketing investments. Any substantial deterioration in these relationships, or substantial deterioration of our relationship with their talent managers or other key personnel, could adversely affect our business. As a result, our brands, net revenues, expenses and profitability could be harmed. If certain endorsers were to stop using our products contrary to their endorsement agreements, our business could be adversely affected. Actions taken by athletes or other endorsers, associated with our products that harm the reputations of those athletes or endorsers, could also seriously harm our brand image with consumers and, as a result, could have an adverse effect on our sales and financial condition. Actions taken by athletes or other endorsers, associated with our products that harm the reputations of those athletes or endorsers, could also seriously harm our brand image with consumers and, as a result, could have an adverse effect on our sales and financial condition. Poor performance by our endorsers, a failure to continue to correctly identify future athletes, public figures or sports organizations, to use and endorse our products or a failure to enter into cost-effective endorsement arrangements with prominent athletes, public figures, and sports organizations could adversely affect our brand, sales and profitability. We are also subject to laws, regulations and industry standards relating to endorsements and influencer marketing. Many of these laws, regulations and industry standards are changing and may be subject to differing interpretations, are costly to comply with or inconsistent among jurisdictions. Our business may be affected by seasonality, which could result in fluctuations in our operating results. We expect to experience moderate fluctuations in aggregate sales volume during the year. We expect revenues in the first and fourth fiscal quarters to exceed those in the second and third fiscal quarters. However, the mix of product sales may vary considerably from time to time as a result of changes in seasonal and geographic demand for tennis and other sports equipment and in connection with the timing of significant sporting events, such as any Grand Slam tennis tournament and, over time, other sports competitions. In addition, our customers may cancel orders, change delivery schedules or change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice. As a result, we may not be able to accurately predict our quarterly sales. Accordingly, our results of operations are likely to fluctuate significantly from period to period. Our operating margins are also sensitive to a number of additional factors that are beyond our control, including manufacturing and transportation costs, shifts in product sales mix and geographic sales trends, all of which we expect to continue. Results of operations in any period should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future period. We may be adversely affected by the financial health of our third-party internet partners, wholesale purchasers, retailers, and distributors. We extend credit to our distributors and to a select number of third party internet partners based on an assessment of a customer’s financial condition, generally without requiring collateral. To assist in the scheduling of production and the shipping of our products, we offer our distributor partners the opportunity to place orders three months ahead of delivery under our direct ship ordering program. These advance orders may be canceled under certain conditions, and the risk of cancellation may increase when dealing with financially unstable distribution partners struggling with economic uncertainty. In the past, some sports customers have experienced financial difficulties up to and including bankruptcies. Such future events would have an adverse effect on our sales, our ability to collect on receivables and our financial condition. When the retail economy weakens or as consumer behavior shifts, distributors may be more cautious with orders. A slowing or changing economy in our key markets could adversely affect the financial health of our customers, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, product sales are dependent in part on high quality digital advertising and merchandising to attract consumers, which requires continuing investments by the company, our distributors and our third party internet partners. Distributors or partners that experience financial difficulties may fail to make such investments or delay them, resulting in lower sales and orders for our products. 22 Failure to accurately forecast consumer demand could lead to excess inventories or inventory shortages, which could result in decreased operating margins, reduced cash flows and harm to our business. There is a risk we may be unable to sell excess products ordered from manufacturers. Inventory levels in excess of customer demand may result in inventory write-downs, and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices could significantly impair our brand image and have an adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition and cash flows. Conversely, if we underestimate consumer demand for our products or if our manufacturers fail to supply products, we require at the time we need them, we may experience inventory shortages. Inventory shortages might delay shipments to customers, negatively impact retailer, distributor and consumer relationships and diminish brand loyalty. The difficulty in forecasting demand also makes it difficult to estimate our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from period to period. A failure to accurately predict the level of demand for our products could adversely affect our net revenues and net income, and we are unlikely to forecast such effects with any certainty in advance. Consolidation of retailers or concentration of retail market share among a few retailers may increase and concentrate our credit risk and impair our ability to sell products. The sports equipment retail markets in some countries are dominated by a few large athletic equipment retailers with many stores. These retailers have in the past increased their market share by expanding through acquisitions and construction of additional stores. These situations concentrate our credit risk with a relatively small number of retailers, and, if any of these retailers were to experience a shortage of liquidity or consumer behavior shifts away from traditional retail, it would increase the risk that their outstanding payables to us may not be paid. In addition, increasing market share concentration among one or a few retailers in a particular country or region increases the risk that if any one of them substantially reduces their purchases of our products, we may be unable to find a sufficient number of other retail outlets for our products to sustain the same level of sales and revenues. If the technology-based systems that give our consumers the ability to shop with us online do not function effectively, our operating results, as well as our ability to grow our digital commerce business globally, could be materially adversely affected. Many of our consumers shop with us through our digital platforms. Increasingly, consumers are using mobile-based devices and applications to shop online with us and with our competitors and to do comparison shopping. We are increasingly using social media and proprietary mobile applications to interact with our consumers and as a means to enhance their shopping experience. Any failure on our part to provide attractive, effective, reliable, user-friendly digital commerce platforms that offer a wide assortment of merchandise with rapid delivery options and that continually meet the changing expectations of online shoppers could place us at a competitive disadvantage, result in the loss of digital commerce and other sales, harm our reputation with consumers, have a material adverse impact on the growth of our digital commerce business globally and could have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations. Risks specific to our digital commerce business also include liability for online content. Our failure to successfully respond to these risks might adversely affect sales in our digital commerce business, as well as damage our reputation and brands. Many factors unique to e-commerce operations, some of which are beyond our control, pose risks and uncertainties. Risks include, but are not limited to, credit card fraud or data mismanagement. Our products are subject to risks associated with overseas sourcing, manufacturing and financing. The principal materials used in our products (e.g., injection molded plastics, polyester, electrical motors, remote controls, trolley bags) are available in countries where our manufacturing takes place. Our products are dependent upon the ability of our unaffiliated contract manufacturers to locate, train, employ and retain adequate personnel. Our contractors and suppliers buy raw materials and are subject to wage rates that are oftentimes regulated by the governments of the countries in which our products are manufactured. There could be a significant disruption in the supply of raw materials from current sources or, in the event of a disruption, our contract manufacturers might not be able to locate alternative suppliers of materials of comparable quality at an acceptable price or at all. Further, our unaffiliated contract manufacturers have experienced and may continue to experience in the future, unexpected increases in work wages, whether government mandated or otherwise and increases in compliance costs due to governmental regulation concerning certain metals used in the manufacturing of our products. In addition, we cannot be certain that our unaffiliated manufacturers will be able to fill our orders in a timely manner. If we experience significant increases in demand, or reductions in the availability of materials, or need to replace an existing manufacturer, there can be no assurance additional supplies of raw materials or additional manufacturing capacity will be available when required on terms acceptable to us, or at all, or that any supplier or manufacturer would allocate sufficient capacity to us in order to meet our requirements. In addition, even if we are able to expand existing or find new manufacturing or sources of materials, we may encounter delays in production and added costs as a result of the time it takes to train suppliers and manufacturers in our methods, products, quality control standards and labor, health and safety standards. Any delays, interruption or increased costs in labor or wages, or the supply of materials or manufacture of our products could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet retail customer and consumer demand for our products and result in lower revenues and net income both in the short- and long-term. 23 Because independent manufacturers make all of our products outside of our principal sales markets, our products must be transported by third parties over large geographic distances. Delays in the shipment or delivery of our products due to the availability of transportation, work stoppages, port strikes, infrastructure congestion or other factors, and costs and delays associated with consolidating or transitioning between manufacturers, could adversely impact our financial performance. In addition, manufacturing delays or unexpected demand for our products may require us to use faster, but more expensive, transportation methods such as air freight, which could adversely affect our profit margins. The cost of oil is a significant component in manufacturing and transportation costs, so increases in the price of petroleum products can adversely affect our profit margins. Changes in U.S. trade policies, including new and potential changes to import tariffs and existing trade policies and agreements, could also have a significant impact on our activities in foreign jurisdictions, and could adversely affect our results of operations. Our financial results may be adversely affected if substantial investments in businesses and operations fail to produce expected returns. From time to time, we may invest in technology, business infrastructure, new businesses, product offering and manufacturing innovation and expansion of existing businesses, such as our digital commerce operations, which require substantial cash investments and management attention. We believe cost-effective investments are essential to business growth and profitability; however, significant investments are subject to typical risks and uncertainties inherent in developing a new business or expanding an existing business. The failure of any significant investment to provide expected returns or profitability could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and divert management attention from more profitable business operations. Our business is sensitive to consumer spending and general economic conditions. Our business may be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine war, as well as macro-economic conditions such as inflation, employment levels, wage and salary levels, trends in consumer confidence and spending, reductions in consumer net worth, interest rates, inflation, the availability of consumer credit and taxation policies influence on public spending confidence. Recent dramatic downturns in the strength of global stock markets, currencies and key economies have highlighted many if not all, of these risks. Consumer purchases in general may decline during recessions, periods of prolonged declines in the equity markets or housing markets and periods when disposable income and perceptions of consumer wealth are lower, and these risks may be exacerbated for us due to our focus on discretionary premium sporting good items. A downturn in the global economy, or in a regional economy in which we have significant sales, could have a material, adverse effect on consumer purchases of our products, our results of operations and our financial position, and a downturn adversely affecting our consumer base or travelers could have a disproportionate impact on our business. There continues to be a significant and growing volatility and uncertainty in the global economy due to the Coronavirus pandemic affecting all business sectors and industries. In addition, the on-going uncertainty in Europe and any resulting disruption could adversely impact our net sales in Europe and globally unless and until economic conditions in that region improve and the prospects of national debt defaults in Europe decline. Further or future downturns may adversely affect traffic at our on-line sales portals (which currently includes our own website https://www.connexasports.com/ and could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial position and growth strategy. Likewise, the current impasse in U.S.-China trade relations has resulted in import duties for all Slinger products into the U.S. being increased from the previous standard of 5% to 30%. Our management has taken the view that at this time, gaining distribution and share outweighs the immediate margin consideration and has decided to take the added increase in import tariffs as a margin loss. There is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern absent obtaining adequate new debt or equity financing and achieving sufficient sales levels. The Company’s management has determined that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 included an explanatory paragraph with respect to the foregoing. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital and implement our business plan. This determination was based on the following factors: (i) the Company has a working capital deficit as of April 30, 2022, used cash in operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 of $11,464,464 in 2022, and the Company’s available cash as of the date of this filing will not be sufficient to fund its anticipated level of operations for the next 12 months; (ii) the Company will require additional financing for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2023 to continue at its expected level of operations; and (iii) if the Company fails to obtain the needed capital, it will be forced to delay, scale back, or eliminate some or all of its development activities or perhaps cease operations. In the opinion of management, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern as of the date of the end of the period covered by this report and for one year from the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. 24 We have limited financial resources. Our independent registered auditors’ report includes an explanatory paragraph stating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of our deficiency in working capital on April 30, 2022 and other factors, our auditors have included a paragraph in their audit report regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plans in this regard are to increase product sales, increase production, obtain inventory financing, seek strategic alternatives and to seek additional capital through future equity private placements or debt facilities. We have recorded net losses since inception and have significant accumulated deficits. We have relied upon loans and equity financings for operating capital. Total revenues will be insufficient to pay off existing debt and fund operations. We may be required to rely on further debt financing, further loans from related parties, and private placements of our common stock for our additional cash needs. Such funding sources may not be available, or the terms of such funding sources may not be acceptable to the Company. We will need additional capital in the future to finance our planned growth, which we may not be able to raise or it may only be available on terms unfavorable to us or our stockholders, which may result in our inability to fund our working capital requirements and harm our operational results. We have and expect to continue to have substantial working capital needs. Our cash on hand, together with cash generated from product sales, services, cash equivalents and short-term investments will not meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. In fact, we will be required to raise additional funds throughout 2023 or we will need to limit operations until such time as we can raise substantial funds to meet our working capital needs. In addition, we will need to raise additional funds to fund our operations and implement our growth strategy, or to respond to competitive pressures and/or perceived opportunities, such as investment, acquisition, marketing and development activities. If we experience operating difficulties or other factors, many of which may be beyond our control, cause our revenues or cash flows from operations, if any, to decrease, we may be limited in our ability to spend the capital necessary to complete our development, marketing and growth programs. We require additional financing, in addition to anticipated cash generated from our operations, to fund our working capital requirements. Additional financing might not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds were not available or were not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our operations, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop or enhance our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited. In such a capital restricted situation, we may curtail our marketing, development, and operational activities or be forced to sell some of our assets on an untimely or unfavorable basis. Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”), management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: ● pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; ● provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and/or directors of the Company; and ● provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could cause us to face regulatory action and also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, either of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. However, our auditors will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 until we are no longer a “smaller reporting company”. 25 The costs of being a public company could result in us being unable to continue as a going concern. As a public company, we are required to comply with numerous financial reporting and legal requirements, including those pertaining to audits and internal control. The costs of maintaining public company reporting requirements could be significant and may preclude us from seeking financing or equity investment on terms acceptable to us and our shareholders. We estimate these costs to be in excess of $250,000 per year and may be higher if our business volume or business activity increases significantly. Our current estimate of costs does not include the necessary expenses associated with compliance, documentation and specific reporting requirements of Section 404 as we will not be subject to the full reporting requirements of Section 404 until we no longer qualify as a “smaller reporting company”. If our revenues are insufficient or non-existent, and/or we cannot satisfy many of these costs through the issuance of shares or debt, we may be unable to satisfy these costs in the normal course of business. This would certainly result in our being unable to continue as a going concern. If we fail to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, then the price of our common stock may be adversely affected. Our internal control over financial reporting may have weaknesses and conditions that could require correction or remediation, the disclosure of which may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting. Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely affect our public disclosures regarding our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, management’s assessment of internal controls over financial reporting may identify weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal controls over financial reporting or other matters that may raise concerns for investors. Any actual or perceived weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure of management’s assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. Any acquisitions we make could disrupt our business and seriously harm our financial condition. We have in the past made (and may, from time to time, consider) acquisitions of complementary companies, products or technologies. A primary component of our growth strategy has been to acquire complementary businesses to grow our Company. For example, we acquired the business of Foundation Sports Systems, LLC, in our fiscal year ended April 30, 2021, and the acquisitions of PlaySight and Gameface closed in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022. We intend to continue to pursue acquisitions of complementary technologies, products and businesses as a primary component of our growth strategy to enhance the features and functionality of our applications, expand our customer base and provide access to new markets and increase benefits of scale. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the acquired businesses, the diversion of our management’s attention from other business concerns and potential adverse effects on existing business relationships could cause our actual growth or operating results to differ from our expectations. In addition, any acquisitions could involve the incurrence of substantial additional indebtedness. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully integrate any acquisitions that we pursue or that such acquisitions will perform as planned or prove to be beneficial to our operations and cash flow. Any such failure could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, there might be potential inability or failure to achieve additional sales and enhance our customer base through cross-marketing of the products to new and existing customers. Some aspects of our business processes include open-source software, which poses risks that could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any failure to comply with the terms of one or more of these open-source licenses could negatively affect our business. We incorporate open-source software into processes supporting our business and anticipate using open- source software in the future. Such open-source software may include software covered by licenses like the GNU General Public License and the Apache License. The terms of various open-source licenses to which we are subject have not been interpreted by U.S. courts, and there is a risk that such licenses could be construed in a manner that imposes unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to operate our systems, limits our use of the software, inhibits certain aspects of our systems and negatively affects our business operations. Some open-source licenses contain requirements that we make source code modifications or derivative works we create publicly available or make such modifications or derivative works available on unfavorable terms or at no cost, depending on the type of open-source software used. 26 While we monitor our use of open-source software and try to ensure that none is used in a manner that would require us to disclose our proprietary source code or that would otherwise breach the terms of an open-source license, such use could inadvertently occur, or could be claimed to have occurred, in part because open-source license terms are often ambiguous. We may face claims from third parties claiming ownership of, or demanding the release or license of, modifications or derivative works that we have developed using such open-source software (which could include our proprietary source code or artificial intelligence (“AI”) models), or otherwise seeking to enforce the terms of the applicable open-source license. These claims could result in litigation and if portions of our proprietary AI models or software are determined to be subject to an open-source license, or if the license terms for the open-source software that we incorporate change, we could be required to publicly release all or affected portions of our source code, purchase a costly license, cease offering the implicated products or services unless and until we can re-engineer such source code in a manner that avoids infringement, discontinue or delay the provision of our offerings if re-engineering could not be accomplished on a timely basis or change our business activities, any of which could negatively affect our business operations and potentially our intellectual property rights. In addition, the re-engineering process could require us to expend significant additional research and development resources, and we may not be able to complete the re-engineering process successfully. If we were required to publicly disclose any portion of our proprietary models, it is possible we could lose the benefit of trade secret protection for our models. In addition to risks related to license requirements, the use of certain open-source software can lead to greater risks than the use of third-party commercial software, as open-source licensors generally do not provide support, warranties, indemnification, controls or other contractual protections regarding infringement claims or the quality of the origin of the software. There is little legal precedent in this area, and any actual or claimed requirement to disclose our proprietary source code or pay damages for breach of contract could harm our business and could help third parties, including our competitors, develop products and services that are similar to or better than ours. Use of open-source software may also present additional security risks because the public availability of such software may make it easier for hackers and other third parties to determine how to breach our website and systems that rely on open-source software. Any of these risks associated with the use of open-source software could be difficult to eliminate or manage, and if not addressed, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Systems defects, failures or disruptions, including events beyond our control, and resulting interruptions in the availability of our websites, applications, products, or services could harm our business, harm our reputation, result in significant costs to us, decrease our potential profitability and expose us to substantial liability. We use vendors, such as our cloud computing web services provider and third-party software providers, in the operation of our platform. The satisfactory performance, reliability and availability of our technology and our underlying network and infrastructure are critical to our operations and reputation and the ability of our platform to attract new and retain existing customers. We rely on these vendors to protect their systems and facilities against damage or service interruptions from natural disasters, power or telecommunications failures, air quality issues, environmental conditions, computer viruses or attempts to harm these systems, criminal acts, unauthorized access, sabotage, acts of vandalism, military actions, negligence, human errors, fraud, spikes in platform use and denial of service issues, hardware failures, improper operation, cyberattacks, data loss, wars and similar events. If our arrangement with a vendor is terminated or if there is a lapse of service or damage to its systems or facilities, we could experience interruptions in our ability to operate our platform. We also may experience increased costs and difficulties in replacing that vendor and replacement services may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, on a timely basis, or at all. In addition, our platform may be accessed by many users at the same time. As we continue to expand the number of our users, and products and services available through our platform, we may not be able to scale our technology to accommodate the increased capacity requirements. The failure of data centers, internet service providers or other third- party service providers to meet our capacity requirements could result in interruptions or delays in access to our platform or impede our ability to grow our business and scale our operations. Any interruptions or delays in our platform availability, whether as a result of a failure to perform on the part of a vendor, any damage to one of our vendor’s systems or facilities, the termination of any of our third-party vendor agreements, software failures, our or our vendor’s error, natural disasters, terrorism, other man-made problems, security breaches, whether accidental or willful, or other factors, could harm our relationships with our customers, prevent our customers from accessing their accounts, damage our reputation with current and potential customers, expose us to liability, cause us to lose customers, cause the loss of critical data, prevent us from supporting our platform, products or services or cause us to incur additional expense in arranging for new facilities and support or otherwise harm our business and also harm our reputation. In addition, we source certain information from third parties. In the event that any third party from which we source information experiences a service disruption, whether as a result of maintenance, natural disasters, terrorism, or security breaches, whether accidental or willful, or other factors, the ability to access our platform may be adversely impacted. Additionally, there may be errors contained in the information provided by third parties. This may result in the inability to approve otherwise qualified applicants through our platform, which may adversely impact our business by negatively impacting our reputation and reducing our transaction volume. 27 To the extent we use or are dependent on any particular third-party data, technology, or software, we may also be harmed if such data, technology, or software becomes non-compliant with existing regulations or industry standards, becomes subject to third-party claims of intellectual property infringement, misappropriation, or other violation, or malfunctions or functions in a way we did not anticipate. Any loss of the right to use any of this data, technology, or software could result in delays in the provisioning of our products and services until equivalent or replacement data, technology, or software is either developed by us, or, if available, is identified, obtained, and integrated, and there is no guarantee that we would be successful in developing, identifying, obtaining, or integrating equivalent or similar data, technology, or software, which could result in the loss or limiting of our products, services, or features available in our products or services. Our ability to sell our products and services will be dependent on the quality of our technical support and our failure to deliver high-quality technical support services could have a material adverse effect on our sales and results of operations. If we do not effectively assist our users in deploying our products and services, succeed in helping our users quickly resolve post-deployment issues and provide effective ongoing support, or if potential customers perceive that we may not be able to achieve the foregoing, our ability to sell our products and services would be adversely affected, and our reputation with potential users could be harmed. In addition, if we expand our operations internationally, our technical support team will face additional challenges, including those associated with delivering support, training and documentation in languages other than the English language. As a result, our failure to deliver and maintain high-quality technical support services to our users could result in customers choosing to use our competitors’ products or services in the future. Our Gameface products and services may fail to keep pace with rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. The market in which Gameface operates is characterized by rapid, and sometimes disruptive, technological developments, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and enhancements and changes in user requirements. In addition, both traditional and new competitors are investing heavily in our market areas and competing for users. As next-generation video analytics technology continues to evolve, we must keep pace in order to maintain or expand our market position. If we are not able to successfully add staff resources with sufficient technical skills to develop and bring new products to market in a timely manner, achieve market acceptance of our products and services or identify new market opportunities for our products and services, our business and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. The business-to-business e-commerce industry is highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete effectively. The market for business-to-business (“B2B”) e-commerce solutions is rapidly changing and intensely competitive. We expect competition to intensify as the number of entrants and new technologies increases. We may not be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors. The competitive pressures facing us may harm our business, operating results and financial condition. We rely on third parties to develop cognitive engines for our platform and in some cases to integrate them with the PlaySight platform. A key element of the PlaySight platform is the ability to incorporate and integrate cognitive engines developed by multiple third-party vendors, and we plan to continue to increase the number of third-party cognitive engines incorporated into our platform in order to enhance the performance and power of our platform. As we become increasingly dependent on third-party developers for new cognitive engines, we may encounter difficulties in identifying additional high-quality cognitive engines, entering into agreements for their inclusion in our ecosystem on acceptable terms or at all and/or in coordinating and integrating their technologies into our system. We may incur additional costs to modify and adjust existing functionalities of our platform to accommodate multiple classes of third-party cognitive engines, without the assurance that such costs can be recouped by the additional revenues generated by the new capabilities. As our platform becomes more complex due to the inclusion of various third-party cognitive engines, we may not be able to integrate them in a seamless or timely manner due to a number of factors, including incompatible software applications, lack of cooperation from developers, insufficient internal technical resources, and the inability to secure the necessary licenses or legal authorizations required. In addition, we currently use third-party providers to integrate such third-party cognitive engines onto our platform. In the future, we may require such third-party developers to integrate their engines onto our platform, and we will be dependent in part upon their ability to do so effectively and quickly. We may not have full control over the quality and performance of third-party providers, and therefore, any unexpected deficiencies or problems arising from these third-party providers may cause significant interruptions of our platform. The failure of third-party developers to integrate their cognitive engines seamlessly into our platform and/or provide reliable, scalable services may impact the reliability of our platform and harm our reputation and business, results of operations and financial conditions. 28 If we are not able to enhance or introduce new products that achieve market acceptance and keep pace with technological developments, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed. Our ability to attract new users and increase revenue from existing customers depends in part on our ability to enhance and improve our platforms, increase adoption and usage of our products and introduce new products and features. The success of any enhancements or new products depends on several factors, including timely completion, adequate quality testing, actual performance quality, market-accepted pricing levels and overall market acceptance and demand. Enhancements and new products that we develop may not be introduced in a timely or cost-effective manner, may contain defects, may have interoperability difficulties with our platform, or may not achieve the market acceptance necessary to generate significant revenue. If we are unable to successfully enhance our existing platform and capabilities to meet evolving customer requirements, increase adoption and usage of our platform, develop new products, or if our efforts to increase the usage of our products are more expensive than we expect, then our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed. Customers may experience difficulty in integrating Playsight, Gameface, or Foundation Sports with third-party applications, which would inhibit sales. PlaySight, Gameface, and Foundation Sports may serve a customer base with a wide variety of constantly changing hardware, operating system software, packaged software applications and networking platforms. If PlaySight, Gameface, or Foundation Sports fails to gain broad market acceptance due to their inability to support a variety of these platforms, our operating results may suffer. Our business depends, in part, on the following factors: ● Our ability to integrate PlaySight, Gameface, or Foundation Sports with multiple platforms and existing systems and to modify our product as new versions of packaged applications are introduced; ● Access to application program interfaces for the third-party software products that are integrated with our products; ● Our ability to anticipate and support new standards; and ● Our management of software being developed by third parties for our customers or for use with Foundation Sports. Application program interfaces provide the instructions that are required to transfer information into and out of an application and trigger the specific characteristics of that application. These instructions are needed to create adapters between PlaySight, Gameface, Foundation Sports and third-party software products, but access to application program interfaces is controlled by the vendors of these applications. If the application vendor denies or delays our access to application program interfaces, our business may be harmed. Some application vendors may become competitors or establish alliances with our competitors, increasing the likelihood that we would not be granted access to their application program interfaces. Furthermore, we may need to modify PlaySight, Gameface, and Foundation Sports or develop new adapters in the future as new applications or newer versions of existing applications are introduced. If we fail to continue to develop adapters or respond to new applications or newer versions of existing applications in a timely manner, our business could suffer. 29 Our betting and online gaming customers and partners are subject to a variety of domestic and foreign laws and regulations, which are subject to change and interpretation and which could subject them to claims or otherwise harm our customers’ businesses. Any change in existing regulations or their interpretation, or the regulatory climate and requirements applicable to our or our customers’ and suppliers’ products and services, or changes in tax rules and regulations or interpretation thereof related to our or our customers’ and suppliers’ products and services, could adversely impact our or our customers’ and suppliers’ ability to operate our or their respective businesses as currently conducted or as we seek to operate in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Certain of our customers and partners are generally subject to laws and regulations relating to sports, sports betting, online gaming, marketing and advertising in the jurisdictions in which they conduct their businesses or in some circumstances, of those jurisdictions in which we and they offer services or those are available, as well as the general laws and regulations that apply to all e-commerce and online businesses, such as those related to privacy and personal information, tax, anti-money laundering, anti-bribery, advertising, competition, inside information and disclosures, and consumer protection. These laws and regulations vary from one jurisdiction to another and future legislative and regulatory action, court decisions or other governmental action, which may be affected by, among other things, political pressures, and changes in legislative or governmental priorities, may have a material impact on our operations and financial results. In particular, some jurisdictions have introduced regulations attempting to restrict or prohibit sports betting, online gaming and advertising, while others have taken the position that sports betting or online gaming should be licensed and regulated and have adopted or are in the process of considering legislation and regulations to enable sports betting or online gaming in their jurisdictions. In some jurisdictions, additional requirements and restrictions may continue to develop. For example, recently, the Committees of Advertising Practice in the U.K. recommended new rules which ban sports betting advertisements if they are likely to appeal to minors, which evidences a trend in Europe for an increasingly restrictive approach to gambling advertising more generally. Additionally, some jurisdictions in which our customers may operate could presently be unregulated or partially regulated and therefore more susceptible to the enactment or change of laws and regulations. Some jurisdictions do not have laws that grant our customers rights in the data they collect. Any enactment of laws in these jurisdictions would require a change in how they conduct business in such jurisdictions. However, our customers offer their services to customers in many more countries, but do not always have visibility of where their customers use their products and services to offer their services to their customers. Any of their licenses could be revoked, suspended or conditioned at any time. Their license applications may also be denied or conditioned. The loss of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss of a license or affect our eligibility for such a license in another jurisdiction, and any of such losses, or potential for such loss, could cause us to cease offering some or all of their offerings in the impacted jurisdictions. As laws and regulations change, they may need to obtain and maintain licenses or registrations in additional jurisdictions. In addition, once licensed, they may be subject to various ongoing requirements, including supervision by the respective governmental agency of certain transfers of ownership and acquisitions. In May 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (“PASPA”) as unconstitutional. This decision has the effect of lifting federal restrictions on sports betting and thus allows states to determine by themselves the legality of sports betting. Since the repeal of PASPA, several states have legalized online sports betting. To the extent new real money gaming or sports betting jurisdictions are established or expanded, we cannot guarantee that our customers will be successful in penetrating such new jurisdictions or expanding our business or customer base in line with the growth of existing jurisdictions. If our customers are unable to effectively develop and operate directly or indirectly within these new jurisdictions or if our customers’ competitors are able to successfully penetrate geographic jurisdictions that they cannot access or where they face other restrictions, there could be a material adverse effect on our customers’ and, in turn, our business, operating results and financial condition. Our customers’ failure to obtain or maintain the necessary regulatory approvals and licenses in jurisdictions, whether individually or collectively, could have a material adverse effect on our and their business. To expand into new jurisdictions, our customers may need to be licensed and obtain approvals of their product offerings. This is a time-consuming process that can be extremely costly. Any delays in obtaining or difficulty in maintaining regulatory approvals or licenses needed for expansion within existing jurisdictions or into new jurisdictions can negatively affect our and our customers’ opportunities for growth, including the growth of our and our customers’ customer base, or delay our or their ability to recognize revenue from our offerings in any such jurisdictions. Future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material impact on our and our customers’ operations and financial results. Governmental authorities could view us or our customers as having violated applicable laws or regulations, despite their efforts to obtain and maintain all applicable licenses or approvals. There is also a risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought by or on behalf of prosecutors or public entities or incumbent providers, or private individuals, could be initiated against us our customers, Internet service providers, credit card and other payment processors, advertisers and others involved in sports betting and online gaming industries. Such potential proceedings could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets, injunctions or other restrictions being imposed upon us or our customers or other business partners, while diverting the attention of key executives. Such proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our and our customers’ businesses, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as impact our and our customers’ reputation. There can be no assurance that legally enforceable legislation will not be proposed and passed in jurisdictions relevant or potentially relevant to our business to prohibit, legislate or regulate various aspects of sports betting and online gaming industries (or that existing laws in those jurisdictions will not be interpreted negatively). Compliance with any such legislation may have a material adverse effect on our and our customers’ businesses, financial condition and results of operations, either as a result of our determination that a jurisdiction should be blocked, or because a local license or approval may be costly for us or our customers to obtain and/or such licenses or approvals may contain other commercially undesirable conditions. Risks Related to the Company’s Legal and Regulatory Requirements Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property and curb the sale of counterfeit merchandise could injure our brand and negatively affect our sales. Our trademarks, copyrights, patents, designs and other intellectual property rights are important to our success and our competitive position. We devote significant resources to the registration and protection of our trademarks and patents. In spite of our efforts, counterfeiting and design copies may still occur. If we are unsuccessful in challenging the usurpation of these rights by third parties, this could adversely affect our future sales, financial condition and results of operations. Our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights can potentially be met with defenses and counterclaims attacking the validity and enforceability of our intellectual property rights. Unplanned increases in legal fees and other costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights could result in higher operating expenses. Additionally, legal regimes outside the U.S., particularly those in Asia, including China, may not always protect intellectual property rights to the same degree as U.S. laws, or the time required to enforce our intellectual property rights under these legal regimes may be lengthy and delay our recovery. 30 We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees, which could result in litigation and adversely affect our business. A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed by our employees, or outside consultants in the course of their employment or retention with us. Under the Israeli Patent Law, 5727-1967, or the Patent Law, inventions conceived by an employee during the scope of his or her employment with a company are regarded as “service inventions.” The Israeli Compensation and Royalties Committee, or the Committee, a body constituted under the Patent Law, has previously held, in certain cases, that employees may be entitled to remuneration for service inventions that they develop during their service for a company despite their explicit waiver of such right. Therefore, we may face claims by employees demanding remuneration beyond their regular salary and benefits. We may be subject to product liability lawsuits or claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims. We may be subject to product liability lawsuits and claims that, individually or in the aggregate, could harm our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. We may face lawsuits or claims if our products do not perform as expected, malfunction or are used without complying with their specifications. Moreover, a product liability lawsuit or claim, regardless of merit, could generate negative publicity about our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our brand, business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. Any lawsuit or claim seeking monetary damages significantly exceeding our coverage or outside of our coverage may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. If we provide products and services related to sports betting, our business may become subject to a variety of U.S. and foreign laws, many of which are unsettled and still developing and which could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business. Any adverse change in regulations or their interpretation, or the regulatory climate applicable to these contemplated products and services, or changes in tax rules and regulations or interpretation thereof related to these contemplated products and services, could adversely impact our ability to operate our business as we seek to operate in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Our business could potentially expand into sports betting, in which case our business partners are generally subject to laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we will conduct our business or in some circumstances, of those jurisdictions in which we offer our services or those are available, as well as the general laws and regulations that apply to all e-commerce businesses, such as those related to privacy and personal information, tax and consumer protection. These laws and regulations vary from one jurisdiction to another and future legislative and regulatory action, court decisions or other governmental action, which may be affected by, among other things, political pressures, attitudes and climates, as well as personal biases, may at such time have a material impact on our operations and financial results, or may prevent our business partners from expanding into such businesses entirely and thus, may have impact on our business. In addition, some jurisdictions in which we may operate could presently be unregulated or partially regulated and therefore more susceptible to the enactment or change of laws and regulations. As a result of the foregoing, future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material impact on our business partners’ business and operations, and that may also have an impact on our operations and financial results. Governmental authorities could view us as having violated local laws, despite efforts to obtain all applicable licenses or approvals. There is also a risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought by or on behalf of prosecutors or public entities or incumbent monopoly providers, or private individuals, could be initiated against our business partners, us, and others involved in the sports betting industry. Such potential proceedings could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets, injunctions or other restrictions being imposed upon us or our business partners. Such proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as impact our reputation. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that legally enforceable legislation will not be proposed and passed in jurisdictions relevant or potentially relevant to our business to prohibit, legislate or regulate various aspects of the sports betting industry (or that existing laws in those jurisdictions will not be interpreted negatively). Compliance with any such legislation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, either as a result of our determination not to offer products or services in a jurisdiction or to cease doing so, or because a local license or approval may be costly for us or our business partners to obtain and/or such licenses or approvals may contain other commercially undesirable conditions. Fluctuations in our tax obligations and effective tax rate may have a negative effect on our operating results. We may be subject to income taxes in multiple jurisdictions. We record tax expense based on our estimates of future payments, which include reserves for uncertain tax provisions in multiple tax jurisdictions. At any one time, many tax years may be subject to audit by various taxing jurisdictions. The results of these audits and negotiations with taxing authorities may affect the ultimate settlement of these issues. As a result, we expect that throughout the year there could be ongoing variability in our quarterly tax rates as events occur and exposures are evaluated. Further, our effective tax rate in a given financial period may be materially impacted by changes in mix and level of earnings or by changes to existing accounting rules or regulations. In addition, tax legislation enacted in the future could negatively impact our current or future tax structure and effective tax rates. 31 We do not have covenants not to compete in place with our key employees. We generally do not enter into non-competition agreements as part of our employment agreements with our employees and it may be difficult for us to restrict our competitors from benefitting from the expertise our former employees or consultants developed while working for us. We could be subject to changes in tax rates, adoption of new tax laws, additional tax liabilities or increased volatility in our effective tax rate. We are subject to the tax laws in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Current economic and political conditions make tax laws and regulations, or their interpretation and application, in any jurisdiction subject to significant change. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), which includes a number of significant changes to previous U.S. tax laws that impact us, including provisions for a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings, and a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, among other changes. The Tax Act also transitions U.S. international taxation from a worldwide system to a modified territorial system and includes base erosion prevention measures on non-U.S. earnings, which has the effect of subjecting certain earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to U.S. taxation. We earn a substantial portion of our income in foreign countries and are subject to the tax laws of those jurisdictions. There have been proposals to reform foreign tax laws that could significantly impact how U.S. multinational corporations are taxed on foreign earnings. Although we cannot predict whether or in what form these proposals will pass, several of the proposals considered, if enacted into law, could have an adverse impact on our income tax expense and cash flows. Portions of our operations are subject to a reduced tax rate or are free of tax under various tax holidays and rulings. We also utilize tax rulings and other agreements to obtain certainty in treatment of certain tax matters. These holidays and rulings expire in whole or in part from time to time and may be extended when certain conditions are met or terminated if certain conditions are not met. The impact of any changes in conditions would be the loss of certainty in treatment thus potentially impacting our effective income tax rate. We may also be subject to the examination of our tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. Although we believe our tax provisions are adequate, the final determination of tax audits and any related disputes could be materially different from our historical income tax provisions and accruals. The results of audits or related disputes could have an adverse effect on our financial statements for the period or periods for which the applicable final determinations are made. For example, we and our subsidiaries are also engaged in a number of intercompany transactions across multiple tax jurisdictions. Although we believe we have clearly reflected the economics of these transactions and the proper local transfer pricing documentation is in place, tax authorities may propose and sustain adjustments that could result in changes that may impact our mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates. To the extent we may rely on endorsements or testimonials, we will review any relevant relationships for compliance with the Endorsement Guides and we will otherwise endeavor to follow the FTC Act and other legal standards applicable to our advertising . The FTC regulates the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising as well as relationships between advertisers and social media influencers pursuant to principles described in the FTC’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, or the Endorsement Guides. The Endorsement Guides provide that an endorsement must reflect the honest opinion of the endorser and cannot be used to make a claim about a product that the product’s marketer couldn’t itself legally make. They also say that if there is a connection between an endorser and the marketer that consumers would not expect and it would affect how consumers evaluate the endorsement, that connection should be disclosed. Another principle in the Endorsement Guides applies to ads that feature endorsements from people who achieved exceptional, or even above average, results from using a product. If the advertiser doesn’t have proof that the endorser’s experience represents what people will generally achieve using the product as described in the ad, then an ad featuring that endorser must make clear to the audience what results they can generally expect to achieve and the advertiser must have a reasonable basis for its representations regarding those generally expected results. Although the Endorsement Guides are advisory in nature and do not operate directly with the force of law, they provide guidance about what the FTC staff generally believes the Federal Trade Commission Act, or FTC Act, requires in the context using of endorsements and testimonials in advertising and any practices inconsistent with the Endorsement Guides can result in violations of the FTC Act’s proscription against unfair and deceptive practices. 32 To the extent we may rely on endorsements or testimonials, we will review any relevant relationships for compliance with the Endorsement Guides and we will otherwise endeavor to follow the FTC Act and other legal standards applicable to our advertising. However, if our advertising claims or claims made by our social media influencers or by other endorsers with whom we have a material connection do not comply with the Endorsement Guides or any requirement of the FTC Act or similar state requirements, the FTC and state consumer protection authorities could subject us to investigations and enforcement actions, impose penalties, require us to pay monetary consumer redress, require us to revise our marketing materials and require us to accept burdensome injunctions, all of which could harm our business, reputation, financial condition and results of operations. Failure of our contractors or our licensees’ contractors to comply with local laws and other standards could harm our business. We work with contractors outside of the U.S. to manufacture our products. We require the contractors that directly manufacture our products and our licensees that make products using our intellectual property (including, indirectly, their contract manufacturers) to comply with environmental, health and safety standards for the benefit of workers. We also require these contractors to comply with applicable standards for product safety. Notwithstanding their contractual obligations, from time-to-time contractors may not comply with such standards or applicable local law or our licensees may fail to enforce such standards or applicable local law on their contractors. Significant or continuing noncompliance with such standards and laws by one or more contractors could harm our reputation or result in a product recall and, as a result, could have an adverse effect on our sales and financial condition. Negative publicity regarding production methods, alleged practices or workplace or related conditions of any of our suppliers, manufacturers or licensees could adversely affect our brand image and sales and force us to locate alternative suppliers, manufacturers or licenses. We could be subject to a change in tax laws, which may impact tax rates or otherwise adversely impact our tax position and may be subject to a tax audit. We are subject to the tax laws in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Such laws may change as a result of economic and political conditions, or there may be changes to such laws interpretation and application. We earn a substantial portion of our income in foreign countries and are subject to the tax laws of those jurisdictions. There have been proposals to reform foreign tax laws that could significantly impact how U.S. multinational corporations are taxed on foreign earnings. Although we cannot predict whether or in what form these proposals will pass, several of the proposals considered, if enacted into law, could have an adverse impact on our income tax expense and cash flows. We are subject to a complex array of laws and regulations, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. As a global business, we are subject to and must comply with extensive laws and regulations in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we have operations and distribution channels. If we or our employees, agents, suppliers, and other partners fail to comply with any of these laws or regulations, such failure could subject us to fines, sanctions or other penalties that could negatively affect our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations. We may be involved in various types of claims, lawsuits, regulatory proceedings and government investigations relating to our business, our products and the actions of our employees and representatives, including contractual and employment relationships, product liability, antitrust, trademark rights and a variety of other matters. It is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of any such legal or regulatory proceedings or investigations, and we could in the future incur judgments, fines or penalties, or enter into settlements of lawsuits and claims that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and negatively impact our reputation. The global nature of our business means legal and compliance risks, such as anti-bribery, anti-corruption, fraud, trade, environmental, competition, privacy and other regulatory matters, will continue to exist and additional legal proceedings and other contingencies will arise from time to time, which could adversely affect us. In addition, the adoption of new laws or regulations, or changes in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations, may result in significant unanticipated legal and reputational risks. Any current or future legal or regulatory proceedings could divert management’s attention from our operations and result in substantial legal fees. For as long as we are a “smaller reporting company,” we will not be required to comply with certain reporting requirements that apply to other publicly reporting companies. We cannot predict whether the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies will make our common shares less attractive to investors. We are currently a “smaller reporting company”. For as long as we continue to be a smaller reporting company, we may choose to take advantage of certain exemptions from reporting requirements applicable to other publicly reporting companies that are not smaller reporting companies. These include not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements for the assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting provided by Section 404 of the Sarbanes- Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and not being required to provide certain disclosure regarding executive compensation required of larger publicly reporting companies. We cannot predict if investors will find our common shares less attractive if we choose to rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common shares less attractive as a result of any choices to reduce future disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our shares and our share price may be more volatile. Further, as a result of these scaled regulatory requirements, our disclosure may be more limited than that of other publicly reporting companies and you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of such companies. 33 We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that require us to incur audit fees and legal fees in connection with the preparation of such reports. These additional costs could reduce or eliminate our ability to earn a profit. We are required to file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm will have to review our financial statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel will have to review and assist in the preparation of such reports. The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our reports cannot be determined at this time and will affect the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys. However, the incurrence of such costs will obviously be an expense to our operations and thus have a negative effect on our ability to meet our overhead requirements and earn a profit. However, for as long as we remain a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly. Risks Related to Ownership of Our Shares There is currently limited liquidity of shares of our common stock. We can give no assurance that an active trading market for shares of our common stock will develop on the Nasdaq or if its develops, will be sustained, or that the shares of common stock will trade at or above the public offering price. Failure to develop or maintain a trading market could negatively affect its value and make it difficult or impossible for you to sell your shares. Even if a market for common stock does develop, the market price of common stock may be highly volatile. In addition to the uncertainties relating to future operating performance and the profitability of operations, factors such as variations in interim financial results or various, as yet unpredictable, factors, many of which are beyond our control, may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. The liquidity of the shares of our common stock may also be affected adversely by a forward stock split given the reduced number of shares that will be outstanding following a reverse stock split, especially if the market price of our common stock does not increase as a result of the forward stock split. Our stock price may be volatile, or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you could lose all or part of your investment as a result. You should consider an investment in our securities to be risky, and you should invest in our securities only if you can withstand a significant loss and wide fluctuation in the market value of your investment. The market price of our common shares could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to the factors described in this section and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Among the factors that could affect our stock price are: ● Actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly and annual operating results or those of companies perceived to be similar to us; ● Weather conditions, particularly during holiday shopping periods; ● Changes in expectations as to our future financial performance, including financial estimates by securities analysts and investors, or differences between our actual results and those expected by investors and securities analysts; ● Fluctuations in the market valuations of companies perceived by investors to be comparable to us; ● The public’s response to our or our competitors’ filings with the SEC or announcements regarding new products or services, enhancements, significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic investments, litigation, restructurings or other significant matters; 34 ● Speculation about our business in the press or the investment community; ● Future sales of our shares; ● Actions by our competitors; ● Additions or departures of members of our senior management or other key personnel; and ● The passage of legislation or other regulatory developments affecting us or our industry. In addition, the securities markets have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect market price of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic, systemic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, loss of investor confidence, interest rate changes, or international currency fluctuations, may negatively affect the market price of our shares. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause our stock price to fall and may expose us to securities class action litigation that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to management. The trading market for our common shares will be influenced by the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. The price of our common shares could decline if one or more securities analysts downgrade our common shares or if those analysts issue a sell recommendation or other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business. If one or more of the analysts who elect to cover us downgrade our common shares, our share price could decline rapidly. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us, we could lose visibility in the market, which in turn could cause our common share price and trading volume to decline. We do not intend to pay dividends on our shares of common stock and under the terms of certain outstanding loans, we are not permitted to pay any dividends. We intend to retain all of our earnings, if any, for the foreseeable future to finance the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors, subject to compliance with applicable law and any contractual provisions, and will depend on, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant. In addition, under the terms of the loan agreements between the Company and Yonah Kalfa and Naftali Kalfa and the Company, we may not make any distributions until these loan agreements are repaid in full. At this time, such loans have not been repaid in full. As a result, you should expect to receive a return on your investment in our common shares only if the market price of our common stock increases, which may never occur. Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our common stock may depress the price of our common stock. As of April 30, 2022, we had 7,317,601 outstanding common shares. Of these shares, 709,080 shares were in the public float or are eligible for re-sale under Rule 144. The remaining 6,608,521 shares common stock outstanding are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144. In addition, on September 8, 2021, we filed a registration statement with the SEC to register an additional 1,640,000 shares of common stock, which was declared effective on January 27, 2022. On September 28, 2022, we issued (i) 1,018,510 shares of common stock and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 11,802,002 shares of its common stock, together with accompanying common stock warrants, at a combined purchase price of $0.39 per share of the common stock and associated common stock warrant and $0.3899 per Pre-Funded Warrant and associated common stock warrants. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.00001 per share of common stock and are exercisable until the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The shares of common stock and Pre-Funded Warrants were sold in the offering together with common stock warrants to purchase 12,820,512 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.39 per share and a term of five years following the initial exercise date (the “5-Year Warrants”) and warrants to purchase 25,641,024 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.43 per share and a term of seven and one half years (the “7.5-Year Warrants”) following the initial exercise date (collectively, the “September Warrants”. On January 6, 2023, the Company issued warrants to purchase 9,049,774 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “January Warrants”). The January Warrants have an exercise price per share equal $0.221. The issuance of the January Warrants at an exercise price of $0.221 reset the exercise price of the Noteholder Warrants (as defined below) to $0.221 per share from the original exercise price of $30.00. Sales of the shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants, the September Warrants, the January Warrants and the Noteholder Warrants in the public market after the date hereof, or the perception that these sales could occur, could reduce the market price of our common stock. If our stock is priced or closes at a price that would reduce the conversion price of the notes to be below approximately $15.00, additional conversion shares will be issuable upon the automatic conversion of the notes, and we will be required to file a new registration statement covering the new conversion shares as soon as reasonably practicable following the determination of the number of new conversion shares that need to be registered. The new registration statement will cover both the shares originally registered for resale and the new conversion shares. Additional sales of our common shares in the public market after the date hereof, or the perception that these sales could occur, could reduce the market price of our common stock. We will be required to file an additional registration statement once we regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing requirements. On September 8, 2021, we filed a registration statement with the SEC to register 1,640,000 shares of common stock for resale by certain selling stockholders, which was declared effective on January 27, 2022. Following our public offering resulting in our common stock being listed on Nasdaq and once we regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing standards, additional conversion shares need to be registered. We also have agreed to register additional shares in connection with our recent financing. See “Item 1. Business—Recent Developments” for more information. The new registration statement will cover both the shares originally registered for resale, the new conversion shares and the recent financing shares. 35 Certain of the Company’s large shareholders may be able to exert significant influence on the Company and their interests may conflict with the interests of its other shareholders . Certain of the Company’s large shareholders, including our officers and directors, represent approximately 44.5% of the Company’s voting rights as of April 30, 2022. Therefore, these shareholders would be able to exert significant influence over certain matters, including matters that must be resolved by the general meeting of shareholders, such as the election of members to the board of directors or the declaration of dividends or other distributions. To the extent that the interests of these shareholders may differ from the interests of the Company’s other shareholders, the Company’s other shareholders may be disadvantaged by any actions that these shareholders may seek to pursue. Our stockholders may not be able to enforce judgments entered by United States courts against certain of our officers and directors. We are incorporated in the State of Delaware. However, some of our directors and executive officers may reside outside of the U.S. As a result, our stockholders may not be able to effect service of process upon those persons within the U.S. or enforce against those persons judgments obtained in U.S. courts. The sale of a large number of shares of common stock by our principal shareholder could depress the market price of our common stock. As of April 30, 2022, Yonah Kalfa beneficially owned approximately 32% of our common stock outstanding. The shares may become available for resale, subject to the requirements of the U.S. securities laws. The sale or prospect of a sale of a substantial number of these shares could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Future sales of our common stock may result in a decrease in the market price of our common stock, even if our business is doing well. The market price of our common stock could drop due to sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market or the perception that such sales could occur. This could make it more difficult to raise funds through future offerings of common stock. 36 If we implement a reverse stock split to regain compliance with the Bid-Price Rule, it may not result in a proportional increase in the per share price of our common stock. As described above under “Item 1. Business—Recent Developments,” Nasdaq informed us on October 10, 2022, that we were not in compliance with the Bid Price Rule and that we had until April 10, 2023 to regain such compliance. To do so, our Board of Directors is contemplating a 1-for-10 reverse stock split. The effect of a future reverse stock split, if any, on the market price for our common stock cannot be accurately predicted. In particular, we cannot assure you that the prices for shares of the common stock after a future reverse stock split will increase proportionately to prices for shares of our common stock immediately before a reverse stock split. The market price of our common stock may also be affected by other factors which may be unrelated to a future reverse stock split or the number of shares outstanding. Furthermore, even if the market price of our common stock does rise following a reverse stock split, we cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock immediately after a reverse stock split will be maintained for any period of time. Moreover, because some investors may view a reverse stock split negatively, we cannot assure you that a reverse stock split will not adversely impact the market price of our common stock. Accordingly, our total market capitalization after a reverse stock split may be lower than the market capitalization before a reverse stock split. Shareholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through issuance of additional shares . Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized 300,000,000 shares that are not issued or reserved for issuance under convertible or exchangeable instruments. In addition, we may attempt to raise additional capital by selling shares, possibly at a deep discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders, further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. A reverse stock split may not help generate additional investor interest. There can be no assurance that a reverse stock split will result in a per share price that will attract institutional investors or investment funds or that such share price will satisfy the investing guidelines of institutional investors or investment funds. As a result, the trading liquidity of our common stock may not necessarily improve. There can be no assurances that our common stock will not be subject to potential delisting if we do not regain compliance with the listing requirements of the Nasdaq. We have listed the shares of our common stock on the Nasdaq, under the symbol “CNXA.” As such we are e subject to, among other things, our fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the Nasdaq. In addition, Nasdaq has rules for continued listing, including, without limitation, minimum market capitalization and other requirements. As described above under “Item 1. Business—Recent Developments,” Nasdaq informed us that we are deficient with respect to several continued listing criteria. Failure to maintain our listing (i.e., being de-listed from the Nasdaq), would make it more difficult for shareholders to sell our common stock and more difficult to obtain accurate price quotations on our common stock. This could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. Our ability to issue additional securities for financing or other purposes, or otherwise to arrange for any financing we may need in the future, may also be materially and adversely affected if our common stock is not traded on a national securities exchange. We have received notices of delinquency from the Nasdaq for violations of listing rules and there is no assurance that we will regain compliance and maintain our listing on the Nasdaq. We have received a number of letters from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) from the period starting on August 16, 2022 through March 21, 2023 (i) notifying us that we are not in compliance with the periodic filing requirements for continued listing because our (i) Annual Report on Form 10-K with respect to the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 and (ii) Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended July 31, 2022 and October 31, 2022 (collectively, the “Delinquent Filings”), by February 13, 2023 (the due date for filing the Delinquent Filings pursuant to an exception to Nasdaq’s Listing Rule previously granted by Nasdaq) and our Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2023 was not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the required due date of March 17, 2023, which is an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from the Nasdaq and (ii) indicating that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) would consider this matter in rendering a determination regarding the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq at its hearing on Thursday, March 30, 2023. On October 10, 2022, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq indicating that our common stock is subject to potential delisting from Nasdaq because, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Bid Price Rule”). The Nasdaq notice indicated that, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company will be provided 180 calendar days, or until April 10, 2023, to regain compliance. The Company did not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule before April 10, 2023, but requested at its hearing on March 30, 2023 an additional period of six months to cure the deficiency by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. We have also been notified by the Nasdaq that due to the resignations from the Company’s board, audit committee and compensation committee on November 17, 2022, we no longer comply with Nasdaq’s independent director, audit committee and compensation committee requirements as set forth in Listing Rule 5605. On March 30, 2023, the Company had its hearing with the Nasdaq, which indicated that a decision with respect to the Company’s listing status on the Nasdaq would be rendered within two weeks. On April 12, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq indicating that the Company had not yet regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule, which serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from the Nasdaq. The letter further indicated that the Panel will consider this matter in its decision regarding the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In that regard, the Nasdaq indicated that the Company should present its views with respect to this additional delinquency to the Panel in writing no later than April 19, 2023. To date, we have not yet filed our Delinquent Filings other than this annual report on Form 10-K, although work on completing such filings is ongoing and have not received a response from the Nasdaq with respect to our requests for extensions of time to regain compliance with the listing requirements with respect to which we are currently in violation. The Company offers no assurance that its request to be granted further time to file its Delinquent Filings, regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule and redress its Corporate Governance Deficiencies and to remain listed on the Nasdaq will be granted. 37 There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to maintain its Nasdaq listing. If the Company’s common stock ceases to be listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company would expect that its common stock would be traded on one of the three tiered marketplaces of the OTC Markets Group. The Company intends to closely monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and consider all available options to remedy the bid price deficiency to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline. The trading market for our common stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on our company. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of our company, the trading price for our stock may be negatively impacted. In the event securities or industry analysts initiate coverage, if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price may decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company or fails to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which might cause our stock price and trading volume to decline. If our shares of common stock become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not obtain or retain a listing on the Nasdaq and if the price of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares. A significant portion of our total outstanding shares is restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline significantly, even if our business is doing well. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. Upon the expiration or early release of any or all of the lock-up agreements entered into between the Representatives and each of our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of our outstanding common stock, a significant amount of shares of our common stock may be sold, or there may be a perception that they will be sold, in the public market. Additionally, upon the (i) expiration of, (ii) early release of, and (iii) terms permitting sales of shares of the Company’s common stock at certain times, a significant amount of shares of our common stock may be sold, or there may be a perception that they will be sold, in the public market. Upon the sale, or the perception that a sale will occur, as described above, our stock price may decline significantly, even if our business is doing well. 38 ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS Not applicable to smaller reporting companies. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES As of the date of this report, we do not own any properties. Our principal office is located at 2709 N.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On February 8, 2023, Oasis Capital, LLC (“Oasis”) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking damages (i) in the amount of $764,647.53 in for an alleged breach of the terms of the 8% senior convertible note and the securities purchase agreement entered into between Oasis and the Company in connection with the Note (as defined below), which in December 2021 was increased to $600,000 in principal amount (the “Note”) and (ii) an unspecified amount of damage for an alleged breach of the exclusivity provisions of a term sheet that the Company and Oasis entered into on July 7, 2022 plus an actual damages in an amount to be proven at trial, interest and costs, reasonable attorney’s fees and such other legal and equitable relief as the court deems just and proper. The Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and is vigorously defending itself. We know of no pending proceedings to which any director, member of senior management, or affiliate is either a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us. None of our executive officers or directors have (i) been involved in any bankruptcy proceedings within the last five years, (ii) been convicted in or has pending any criminal proceedings (other than traffic violations and other minor offenses), (iii) been subject to any order, judgment or decree enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activity or (iv) been found to have violated any Federal, state or provincial securities or commodities law and such finding has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

Dividends We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock nor do we anticipate paying any in the foreseeable future. Furthermore, we expect to retain any future earnings to finance our operations and expansion. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors. 39 Equity Compensation Plans On November 11, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Slinger Bag Inc. Global Share Incentive Plan (2020), or the 2020 Plan, which was approved by stockholders holding in the aggregate 19,994,700 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 75.4% of the Company’s common stock outstanding on such date. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of awards which are incentive stock options (“ISOs”), non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”), unrestricted stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock and other equity-based and cash awards or any combination of the foregoing, to eligible key management employees, non-employee directors, and non-employee consultants of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each a “participant”) (however, solely employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible for incentive stock option awards). The Company has reserved a total of 1,500,000 shares for issuance under awards to be made under the 2020 Plan, all of which may, but need not, be issued in connection with ISOs. To the extent that an award lapses, expires, is canceled, is terminated unexercised or ceases to be exercisable for any reason, or the rights of its holder terminate, any shares subject to such award shall again be available for the grant of a new award. The 2020 Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated, until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which it was adopted by the Board of Directors (except as to awards outstanding on that date). The Board of Directors in its discretion may terminate the 2020 Plan at any time with respect to any shares for which awards have not theretofore been granted; provided, however, that the 2020 Plan’s termination shall not materially and adversely impair the rights of a holder, without the consent of the holder, with respect to any award previously granted. Future new hires, non-employee directors and additional non-employee consultants are eligible to participate in the 2020 Plan as well. The number of awards to be granted to officers, non-employee directors, employees and non-employee consultants cannot be determined at this time as the grant of awards is dependent upon various factors such as hiring requirements and job performance.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA Not applicable to smaller reporting companies. 40 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview Lazex Inc. (“Lazex”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 12, 2015. On August 23, 2019, the majority owner of Lazex entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Slinger Bag Americas Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Slinger Bag Americas”), which was 100% owned by Slinger Bag Ltd. (“SBL”), an Israeli company. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Slinger Bag Americas acquired 2,000,000 shares of common stock of Lazex for $332,239. On September 16, 2019, SBL transferred its ownership of Slinger Bag Americas to Lazex in exchange for the 2,000,000 shares of Lazex acquired on August 23, 2019. As a result of these transactions, Lazex owned 100% of Slinger Bag Americas and the sole shareholder of SBL owned 2,000,000 shares of common stock (approximately 82%) of Lazex. Effective September 13, 2019, Lazex changed its name to Slinger Bag Inc. On October 31, 2019, Slinger Bag Americas acquired control of Slinger Bag Canada, Inc., (“Slinger Bag Canada”) a Canadian company incorporated on November 3, 2017. There were no assets, liabilities or historical operational activity of Slinger Bag Canada. On February 10, 2020, Slinger Bag Americas became the 100% owner of SBL, along with SBL’s wholly owned subsidiary Slinger Bag International (UK) Limited (“Slinger Bag UK”), which was formed on April 3, 2019. On February 10, 2021, Zehava Tepler, the owner of SBL, contributed Slinger Bag UK to Slinger Bag Americas for no consideration. Effective February 25, 2020, the Company increased the number of authorized shares of common stock from 75,000,000 to 300,000,000 via a four-to-one forward split of its outstanding shares of common stock. All share and per share information contained in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the stock split. On June 21, 2021, Slinger Bag Americas entered into a membership interest purchase agreement with Charles Ruddy to acquire a 100% ownership stake in Foundation Sports Systems, LLC (“Foundation Sports”). On February 2, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with Flixsense Pty, Ltd. (“Gameface”). As a result of the share purchase agreement, Gameface would become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. On February 22, 2022, the Company entered into a merger agreement with PlaySight Interactive Ltd. (“PlaySight”) and Rohit Krishnan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”). As a result of the merger agreement, PlaySight would become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. During April 2022, the Company determined that the technology utilized in the Foundation Sports acquired entity would take substantially more financial resources and more time to bring to market and achieve profitability than originally anticipated. As a result, the goodwill and intangible assets related to Foundation Sports were fully impaired as of April 30, 2022, resulting in an impairment loss of $3,486,599. In addition, during April 2022 the Company decided to sell a portion of Foundation Sports. The Company continued to classify Foundation Sports in continuing operations, until December 5, 2022 when they sold 75% of Foundation Sports back to the original owners at which time it deconsolidated this subsidiary and recorded a loss on the sale. The Company also determined to dispose of the PlaySight entity during the year ended April 30, 2023. The Company completed the sale in November 2022 and recorded a loss on the sale at that time. In April 2022, the Company changed its domicile from Nevada to Delaware. On April 7, 2022, the Company effected a name change to Connexa Sports Technologies Inc. We also changed our ticker symbol, “CNXA”. Connexa is now the holding company under which Slinger Bag, PlaySight, Gameface and Foundation Sports reside. The operations of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL, Foundation Sports, PlaySight and Gameface are collectively referred to as the “Company.” On June 14, 2022, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, where the Company’s common stock began to trade on a reverse split adjusted basis. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split and all such fractional interests were rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of common stock. All references to the outstanding stock have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect this reverse split. The Company also consummated a public offering of shares of its common stock and the listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company operates in the sports equipment and technology business. The Company is the owner of the Slinger Launcher, which is comprised of a portable tennis ball launcher, a portable padel tennis ball launcher and a portable pickleball launcher and Gameface AI, providing AI technology and performance analytics. 41 Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). As a result of the transactions described above, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the combined results of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL, Foundation Sports, PlaySight, and Gameface for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Valuation of Inventory Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost (determined principally on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. The Company’s valuation of inventory includes inventory reserves for inventory that will be sold below cost and the impact of inventory shrink. Inventory reserves are based on historical information and assumptions about future demand and inventory shrink trends. It is possible that changes to inventory reserve estimates could be required in future periods due to changes in market conditions. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with its contracts with customers at a point in time once products are shipped. Amounts collected from customers in advance of shipping products ordered are reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s standard terms are non-cancelable and do not provide for the right-of-return, other than for defective merchandise covered under the Company’s standard warranty. The Company has not historically experienced any significant returns or warranty issues. Business Combinations Upon acquisition of a company, we determine if the transaction is a business combination, which is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, once control is obtained of a business, the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, are recorded at fair value. We use our best estimates and assumptions to assign fair value to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. One of the most significant estimates relates to the determination of the fair value of these assets and liabilities. The determination of the fair values is based on estimates and judgments made by management. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Measurement period adjustments are reflected at the time identified, up through the conclusion of the measurement period, which is the time at which all information for determination of the values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is received and is not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. We may record adjustments to the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Additionally, uncertain tax positions and tax-related valuation allowances are initially recorded in connection with a business combination as of the acquisition date. We continue to collect information and reevaluate these estimates and assumptions periodically and record any adjustments to preliminary estimates to goodwill, provided we are within the measurement period. If outside of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the consolidated statement of operations. 42 Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows: Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 3 — Unobservable pricing inputs in the market Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their categorization within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity. The Company’s derivative liabilities were calculated using Level 2 assumptions. The Company’s contingent consideration in connection with the acquisition of Gameface and PlaySight were calculated using Level 3 inputs. The Company estimates the fair value of its intangible assets using Level 3 assumptions, primarily based on the income approach utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. Long-Lived Assets In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. If those net undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value or discounted expected cash flows of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. Long-lived assets related to Foundation Sports in the amount of $1,056,599 were fully impaired as of April 30, 2022, resulting in an impairment loss. There was no impairment of long-lived assets identified during the year ended April 30, 2021. Goodwill The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that goodwill not be amortized, but reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise and, at a minimum, annually. The Company records goodwill as the excess purchase price over assets acquired and includes any work force acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis. With the adoption of the ASU 2017-04, which eliminates the second step of the goodwill impairment test, the Company tests impairment of goodwill in one step. In this step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units with goodwill using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company will not record an impairment charge. The Company determined in April 2022 that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit, and therefore goodwill was fully impaired for Foundation Sports at April 30, 2022, resulting in an impairment loss of $2,430,000. There was no impairment of goodwill as of April 30, 2021. 43 Valuation of Warrants The Company grants warrants to key employees and executives as compensation on a discretionary basis. The Company also grants warrants in connection with certain note payable agreements and other key arrangements. The Company is required to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the measurement date and recognize as expense that value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest over the requisite service period. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04, goodwill impairment will be tested by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The new guidance must be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 effective May 1, 2021. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which amends ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company has not yet adopted this update and is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”). The guidance replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credits, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842 on leases. ASC 326 requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of a company’s portfolio. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available-for-sale debt securities the Company does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell. The ASU can be adopted no later than January 1, 2020 for SEC filers and January 1, 2023 for private companies and smaller reporting companies. The Company has not yet adopted this ASU as it qualifies as a smaller reporting company. The Company does not expect this ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations - Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities (Topic 805)”. The amendments in this Update address diversity and inconsistency related to the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. The amendments in this Update require that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The FASB has issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2021-04 provides guidance that an entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. The standard also provides guidance on how an entity should measure and recognize the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period.

Our net sales during the year ended April 30, 2021 were $10,804,214 which consisted partially of shipped orders related to our Kickstarter and Indiegogo crowdfunding campaigns initiated in fiscal year 2019, as well as new orders placed and fulfilled to consumers via our online marketplace and to our international distributors. The increases to our online marketplace in Slinger Bag contributed to the increase in sales along with increases related to the purchase of PlaySight in February 2022. As of April 30, 2022 and 2021, we had contract liabilities of $2,656,706 and $99,531, respectively, representing units that have not been shipped at year end. Cost of sales Our cost of sales during the year ended April 30, 2022 were $12,346,712, which represents the costs of units shipped during the period, and resulted in a gross profit of $4,484,765, or 26.65%. Our cost of sales during the year ended April 30, 2021 were $7,680,290, which represents the costs of units shipped during the period, and resulted in a gross profit of $3,123,924, or 28.91%. During the first quarter of the current year, we experienced a gross loss as the bulk of our sales in that period related to the shipment of initial crowdfunding orders. The loss on these shipments was due to (1) discounted pricing on the initial crowdfunding orders, (2) as fulfillment was later than initially scheduled we fulfilled orders with the “deluxe” version of launcher (including all features), as well as tennis balls, both of which increased costs, and (3) due to sanctions by the U.S. against Chinese sourced products, the import duty was raised on all launchers brought into the U.S. increasing our cost of sales. As a result, our cost of sales exceeded initial sales values raised in our crowdfunding campaigns. As of the beginning of the third quarter of the previous year, substantially all of the initial crowdfunding orders had been fulfilled. Sales generated during the last two fiscal quarters represented new orders placed and fulfilled during the current year by consumers and distributors, which resulted in a positive gross profit. Currently, our cost of sales is being negatively impacted by the large increase in container costs out of Asia. In addition, we had increases in 2022 cost of sales related to the purchase of PlaySight in February 2022. Our gross margins slightly increased in 2022 versus 2021 related to the above items. 45 Selling and marketing expenses During the year ended April 30, 2022, we incurred selling and marketing expenses of $3,536,617 compared with $1,881,434 during the year ended April 30, 2021. This increase is largely driven by an increase in social media advertising, sponsorships, and other investments in our public relations presence in order to drive sales and build brand awareness. General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation, including share-based compensation, and other employee-related costs, as well as legal fees and fees for professional services. During the year ended April 30, 2022, we incurred general and administrative expenses of $43,424,105 compared with $4,629,642 during the year ended April 30, 2021. The increase in general and administrative expenses is largely due to our share based compensation that resulted in an expense of $32,176,087. Research and development costs During the year ended April 30, 2022, we incurred research and development costs of $855,660 compared with $339,385 during the year ended April 30, 2021. This increase is mainly driven by our investment in new slinger bag launcher products for Pickleball and Padel as well as costs relating to the development of a consumer app that will integrate artificial intelligence (AI) technology that is targeted to provide performance and training insights to provide more value to our customers. Impairment loss During the year ended April 30, 2022, we incurred an impairment loss of $3,486,599 due to the full impairment of goodwill and intangible assets for Foundation Sports. Transaction costs During the year ended April 30, 2022, we incurred transaction costs of $5,109,522 associated with completing the acquisitions of Gameface, PlaySight and Foundation Sports. Other expenses During the year ended April 30, 2022, we recorded a gain on change in fair value of derivatives of $18,557,184, compared to $1,939,639 during the year ended April 30, 2021. A gain on change in fair value of contingent consideration of $4,847,000 and $0 was recorded during the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, relating to the acquisition of PlaySight. Excluding the gains, during the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, we had other expenses totaling $23,250,098 and $16,807,862, respectively. The increase in other expenses for the year ended April 30, 2022 as compared to April 30, 2021 was primarily due amortization of discounts and losses incurred on extinguishment of our convertible notes totaling net of decreases in interest expense from 2021 to 2022 due to changes in our long-term debt. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We had an accumulated deficit of $80,596,925 as of April 30, 2022, and more losses are anticipated in the development of the business. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our generating profitable operations in the future and/or being able to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from related parties, and/or private placement of debt and/or common stock. 46 The following is a summary of our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021: For the Years Ended April 30, 2022 2021 Cash flows used in operating activities $ (11,463,464 ) $ (4,517,457 ) Cash flows used in investing activities $ (1,618,341 ) $ (30,000 ) Cash flows provided by financing activities $ 13,734,286 $ 5,420,000 We had cash and cash equivalents of $1,424,360 as of April 30, 2022, as compared to $928,796 as of April 30, 2021. Net cash used in operating activities was $11,463,464 during the year ended April 30, 2022, compared with $4,517,457 during the year ended April 30, 2021. Our cash used in operating activities during the year ended April 30, 2022 was primarily the result of our net loss of $51,773,652 for the year as well as increases in inventory, prepaid inventory, accounts receivable, and prepaid expenses, which was partially offset by non-cash expenses of $38,363,555, and increases in accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued interest, and a decrease in contract liabilities. Our net cash used in operating activities during the year ended April 30, 2021 was primarily the result of our net loss of $18,594,760 during the year as well as increases in inventory and accounts receivable, which was partially offset by non-cash expenses of $14,892,030 and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, as well as a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Description of Indebtedness Notes Payable - Related Party On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into two loan agreements with Yonah Kalfa and Naftali Kalfa, each for $1,000,000, pursuant to which we received a total amount of $2,000,000. The loans bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, and we have agreed to repay the loans in full by July 3, 2022, or such other date as may be accepted by the lenders. We are not permitted to make any distribution or pay any dividends unless or until the loans are repaid in full. On June 28, 2022, the Company entered into amendments for the two related party loan agreements with the lenders in which the repayment date was extended to July 31, 2024. There were $2,000,000 and $6,220,000 in outstanding borrowings from the Company’s related parties for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Accrued interest due to related parties as of April 30, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $908,756 and $747,636, respectively. Securities Purchase Agreement and Convertible Notes On August 6, 2021, the Company consummated the closing of a private placement offering pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between the Company and certain accredited investors. At closing, the Company sold (i) 8% Senior Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $11,000,000 and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 7,333,334 shares of our common stock (the “Noteholder Warrants”). The Company received an aggregate of $11,000,000 in gross proceeds from this private placement, before deducting offering expenses and commissions. The 8% Senior Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at any time following the date of issuance and prior to mandatory conversion (as defined in the Notes) at the conversion price equal to the lesser of: (i) $30.00, subject to adjustment set forth in the 8% Senior Convertible Notes and (ii) in the case of an uplist to the Nasdaq, the uplist conversion price (as defined in the 8% Senior Convertible Notes) of our common stock. 47 The Company used the net proceeds from this transaction for working capital purposes and to pay the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest through August 6, 2021 of the $2,000,000 secured term promissory note dated April 15, 2021 that bore interest at the rate of 15% per annum to SB Invesco LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. Spartan Capital Securities, LLC served as placement agent for the private placement. The convertible notes mature on August 6, 2022, and bear interest at 8% per annum payable on each conversion date (as to that principal amount then being converted), on each redemption date as well as mandatory redemption date (as to that principal amount then being redeemed) and on the maturity date, in cash. The notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time following the date of issuance and prior to Mandatory Conversion (as defined in the convertible notes) at the conversion price equal to the lesser of: (i) $30.00, subject to adjustment and (ii) in the case of an up-list to the Nasdaq, the up-list Conversion Price (as defined in the convertible notes) of the Company’s common stock during the two trading day period after each conversion date; provided , however , that at any time from and after December 31, 2021 or upon an Event of Default (as defined in the convertible notes), the holder had the right, by delivery of written notice to the Company, elect to cause all, or any part, of the notes to be converted, at any time thereafter, all, or any part of, the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes into shares of common stock at the alternate conversion price. The convertible notes rank pari passu with all other notes now or thereafter issued under the terms set forth in the convertible notes. The convertible notes contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion in case of certain future dilutive events or stock-splits and dividends, including the reverse stock split we contemplating effectuation prior to or upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The notes issued in the August 6, 2021 private placement will automatically convert into shares of common stock at a 20% discount to the public offering price upon the closing of the offering. The warrants are exercisable for five years from August 6, 2021, at an exercise price equal to the lesser of $30.00 or a 20% discount to the public offering price that a share of the Company’s common stock or unit (if units are offered) is offered to the public resulting in the commencement of trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq, New York Stock Exchange or NYSE American. Accordingly, upon completion of this offering the exercise price of the warrants issued in the August 6, 2021 private placement will be reset to a 20% discount to the public offering price in accordance with the terms of the warrants. The warrants contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the amount of securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants in case of certain future dilutive events or stock-splits and dividends, including the reverse stock split we contemplating effectuation prior to or upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The Company’s obligations in this transaction are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company’s obligations under the convertible notes are jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by its subsidiaries. In connection with this transaction, the Company agreed to register the shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the convertible notes and the warrants for resale under the Securities Act. The Company filed registration statement with the SEC on September 8, 2021 and that registration statement was declared effective on January 27, 2022. However, additional sales of our common shares in the public market after the date hereof could occur as convertible notes and warrants for resale were not fully registered by the resale registration statement that we filed on September 8, 2021. If the public offering price of our common stock in this offering causes the conversion price to be below approximately $15.00 per share at the time of the closing of this offering, additional conversion shares need to be registered. The new registration statement will cover both the shares originally registered for resale and the new conversion shares. On February 15, 2022, the Company entered into a consignment transaction with consideration of $4,000,000 in exchange for all of the Company’s right, title, and interest in and to 13,000 units of certain surplus inventory, including all components, parts, additions, and accessions thereto (collectively, the “Consigned Goods”). The Company also agreed to purchase the Consigned Goods from the consignor and make certain payments to the consignor. As of April 30, 2022, the Company had repaid $965,463 resulting in a net balance of the convertible note payable of $3,034,537. Accrued interest on the consignment note was $1,104,839 for the year ended April 30, 2022. Omnibus Amendment to Purchase Agreement On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into an Omnibus Amendment Agreement with certain convertible note holders who collectively held 67% or more of the convertible notes and warrants outstanding on August 6, 2021, amending the original purchase agreement and the Company’s registration obligations. Simultaneously with the execution of the Omnibus Amendment Agreement, the Company issued to each convertible noteholder a replacement note in replacement of the convertible note held prior to December 31, 2021 by such noteholder. 48 The original purchase agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) delete Exhibit A and replace it in its entirety with a replacement 8% Senior Convertible Note, (ii) add a new definition of “Inventory Financing”, (iii) amend Section 4.18 to add at the end of Section 4.18 before the final period “, it being agreed that the provisions of this Section 4.18 shall not apply to the Qualified Subsequent Financing expected to occur after the date hereof”, (iv) delete Section 4.20 and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text, including the following after the period, replacing the period with a semicolon: “; provided that the provisions of this Section 4.20 shall not apply to (i) in respect of any Holder to the extent that such Holder is an investor or a purchaser of the securities offered pursuant such Subsequent Financing, and (ii) with respect to an Inventory Financing.”, and (v) add a new section as follows: “4.21. Most-Favored Nation. So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any new security, with any term that a majority of the holders of the outstanding Principal Amount of Notes, reasonably believe is more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that a majority of the holders of the outstanding Principal Amount of Notes reasonably believe was not similarly provided to the Purchasers in the Notes, the Warrant, or under this Agreement, then (i) the Company shall notify each Note holder of such additional or more favorable term within one (1) business day of the issuance or amendment (as applicable) of the respective security, and (ii) such term, at the option of a majority of the holders of the outstanding Principal Amount of Notes, shall become a part of the Transaction Documents (regardless of whether the Company complied with the notification provision of this Section). The types of terms contained in another security that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not limited to, terms addressing conversion discounts, prepayment rate, conversion lookback periods, interest rates, and original issue discounts. If a majority of the holders of the outstanding Principal Amount of Notes elects to have the term become a part of the Transaction Documents, then the Company shall immediately deliver acknowledgment of such adjustment to the Note holder (the “Acknowledgment”) within one (1) business day of Company’s receipt of request from Investor (the “Adjustment Deadline”), provided that Company’s failure to timely provide the Acknowledgement shall not affect the automatic amendments contemplated hereby.” As consideration for entering into the Omnibus Amendment Agreement, the outstanding principal balance of each convertible note holder was increased by twenty percent (20%) and such increased principal balance is reflected on the replacement note issued to each convertible noteholder. After giving effect to this increase in principal amount, total outstanding borrowings related to the convertible notes as of April 30, 2022 was $13,200,000, excluding any interest due on the convertible notes at such time. The outstanding amount is net of discounts of $2,872,222 for a net book value of $10,327,778 as of April 30, 2022. Note Payable On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 note payable. On August 6, 2021, the Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the convertible notes to pay 100% of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of this note. On April 15, 2021, the Company and its subsidiaries, Slinger Bag Americas Inc., (“SBA”), Slinger Bag Canada, Inc., (“SBC”), Slinger Bag International (UK) Limited (“SB UK”), and Slinger Bag Ltd., (“SBL” and, together with the Company, SBA, SBC, SB UK, SBL the “Borrower”) issued a $2,000,000 secured term promissory note that bears interest at the rate of 15% per annum (the “Note”) to SB Invesco LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (the “Lender”). In connection with the Note, the Borrower and Lender entered into the following agreements: (i) business loan and security agreement (“BLSA”); (ii) intellectual property security agreement (“IPSA”); (iii) stock pledge agreement (“SPA”); (iv) intercreditor agreement (“ICA”); (v) warrant purchase agreement (“WPA”); and (vi) 2,200,000 warrants to the Lender and Chessler Holdings, LLC to purchase shares of common stock of SBI (“Warrants”) and, collectively, the “Loan Agreements”). On April 1, 2022, we entered into a loan agreement with Midcity Capital Ltd. pursuant to which we received $500,000. The loan bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and is required to be repaid in full by July 1, 2022 or such other date as may be accepted by the lender. The accrued interest associated with this note payable was $3,178 as of April 30, 2022. We are not permitted to make any distribution or pay any dividends unless or until this loan is repaid in full. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to repay this loan. See “Use of Proceeds.” Future amounts due as of April 30, 2022 are summarized as follows: Payments due by period Total Less than 1 year 1-3 years 3-5 years More than 5 years Convertible notes payable $ 10,327,778 $ 10,327,778 $ — $ — $ — Notes payable 3,534,537 3,534,537 — — — Notes payable - related party 2,000,000 — 2,000,000 — — Total $ 15,862,315 $ 13,862,315 $ 2,000,000 $ — $ — 49 BLSA Pursuant to the BLSA, the Borrower granted to the Lender, as collateral security for the payment and performance of all of the obligations and liabilities of any member of and all of the Borrower in favor of the Lender (the “Obligations”), due or to become due, existing or hereafter incurred, contracted or acquired, a first priority continuing security interest in all of the assets and personal property of the Borrower and its business (the “Collateral”). Such security interest is a first priority security interest in the Collateral. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the BLSA), the Lender may (i) at any time thereafter, in its discretion transfer any securities or other property constituting Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee and receive the income thereon and hold the same as security for all Obligations or apply it on any or all amounts due on the Obligations in such order as Lender may elect in its sole discretion, (ii) enter the Borrower’s premises and take control of its business and (iii) require each Borrower to establish, at Borrower’s expense, a lock box account with such bank acceptable to Lender, into which Borrower shall promptly deposit and direct their account debtors to directly remit all payments on receivables and which such payments or deposits shall be the property solely of the Lender. IPSA To secure the prompt payment to the Lender of the Obligations of the Borrower, the Borrower pledged and granted to the Lender a continuing security interest in and lien upon all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following, whether presently existing or hereafter created or acquired (collectively, the “ IP Collateral ”): a. trademarks and trademark licenses to which the Borrower is a party; b. patents and patent licenses to which Borrower is a party; c. copyrights and copyright licenses to which Borrower is a party; d. intellectual property not covered by the foregoing; e. rights to sue third parties for past, present or future infringement, dilution, misappropriation, or other violation of rights in any intellectual property, including injury to the goodwill associated with any trademark, and all causes of action for the same; and f. All proceeds of all or any of the foregoing, tort claims and all claims and other rights to payment including (i) insurance claims against third parties for loss of, damage to, or destruction of, the foregoing IP Collateral and (ii) payments due or to become due under copyright licenses, patent licenses or trademark licenses and proceeds payable under, or unearned premiums with respect to, policies of insurance in whatever form regarding the foregoing Collateral. SPA Pursuant to the SPA, SBI pledged, assigned and granted to the Lender and created a continuing first priority lien and security interest in favor of the Lender in and to all of its right, title, and interest in and to the following, property (collectively, the “Security Collateral”) to secure the due and prompt payment and performance of the Borrower’s Obligations: (a) 100% of the shares in each of its subsidiaries SBA, SBC, SB UK and SBL; and (b) all proceeds and products of the foregoing, all books and records relating to the foregoing, all supporting obligations related thereto, and all accessions to, substitutions, and replacements for, and profits and products of, each of the foregoing, and any and all proceeds of any insurance, indemnity, warranty, or guaranty payable to the Borrower from time to time with respect to any of the foregoing. The Borrower also agreed, from time to time, as may be required by the Lender with respect to all Security Collateral, to take all actions as may be requested by the Lender to perfect the security interest of the Lender in the Security Collateral and so that control of such Security Collateral is obtained and at all times held by the Lender. The Borrower further authorized the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements and amendments thereto that contain the information required by Article 9 of the UCC of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment relating to the Security Collateral, without the signature of the Borrower where permitted by law. 50 ICA Under the ICA, until the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of every nature of the Borrower from time to time owed to the Lender under the Loan Agreements (the “First Lien Obligations”) have been paid in full, any other creditor’s security interest in and lien on the Collateral to secure the payment and performance of their obligations were subordinated to the Lender’s security interests in and liens on the Collateral to secure the First Lien Obligations, regardless of the order or time of attachment, or the order, time, or manner of perfection, or the order or time of filing or recordation of any document or instrument, or other method of perfecting a lien. WPA Pursuant to the WPA, SBI issued and sold to the Lender 2,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock of SBI and to Chessler Holdings, LLC 200,000 warrants to purchase common stock of SBI (together, the “Warrants”). Warrants Each Warrant permits its holder to purchase shares of SBI’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.025 per share, subject to the option to cashless exercise such warrants. Each warrant has other customary terms found in like instruments, including, but not limited to, events of default. We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds, cash flows from operations and further issuances of debt and/or securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business. Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next twelve months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to (i) acquisition of inventory; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders.

Inventory the company developed, and now sells, a tennis ball launcher that is built into a bag (the “Slinger Launcher”). The Company utilizes manufacturing companies who deliver its Slinger Launchers to third party warehouses around the world to enable the Company to distribute its product internationally. As discussed in Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements the Company values their inventory at the lower of cost (determined principally on a first-in first-out basis) or net realizable value. Due to the numerous warehouse locations, inventory in transit, and the multiple components that go into the Slinger Launcher auditing the inventory balance was challenging and required complex auditor judgment. In order to audit the Company’s inventory balance, we sent confirmations to third party warehouses after they completed their internal inventory counts, reconciled and verified all inventory in transit amounts by reviewing third party support and shipping records, and we ensured all values assigned to components and completed Slinger Launchers was accurate by reviewing source documents and invoices from third party manufacturers. Complex Debt and Equity Transactions During the year under audit the Company entered into multiple debt and/or equity transactions and agreements that contained terms and provisions that were uncommon in practice. Due to the unusual nature of the agreements, ensuring the accounting for the transactions were challenging, subjective, and required complex auditor judgment, including detailed analysis and interpretation of accounting standards. In order to audit these significant unusual transactions, we reviewed Company analysis and had to perform a significant amount of research in order to gain comfort in the accounting for each. /s/ Mac Accounting Group, LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). As a result of the transactions described above, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the combined results of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL, PlaySight, Foundation Sports, and Gameface for the years ended April, 30 2022 and 2021. F- 8 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company reports Gameface on a one-month calendar lag allowing for the timely preparation of financial statements. Gameface operates on fiscal year end periods as of December 31. For the period ended April 30, 2022, the Company reported both Gameface as of the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. As the Company acquired Gameface on February 2, 2022, only the financial data from the acquisition date through March 31, 2022 are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This one-month reporting lag is with the exception of significant transactions or events that occur during the intervening period. The Company did not identify any significant transactions during the one month ended April 30, 2022 at Gameface that would need to be disclosed as not included within the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic The Company has been carefully monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on its business. In that regard, while the Company has continued to sell its products and grow its business it did experience certain disruptions in its supply chains. The Company expects the significance of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of its effect on the Company’s financial and operational results, to be dictated by, among other things, its duration, the success of efforts to contain it and the impact of actions taken in response. While the Company has not experienced any material disruptions to its business and operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible such disruptions may occur in the future which may impact its financial and operational results, and which could be material. Impact of Russian and Ukrainian Conflict In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. We are closely monitoring the unfolding events due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and its regional and global ramifications. We have one distributor in Russia, which is not material to our overall financial results. We do not have operations in Ukraine or Belarus. We are monitoring any broader economic impact from the current crisis. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these financial statements. However, to the extent that such military action spreads to other countries, intensifies, or otherwise remains active, such action could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Note 2: GOING CONCERN The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $ 80,596,925 as of April 30, 2022, and more losses are anticipated in the development of the business. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or being able to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from related parties, and/or private placement of debt and/or common stock. In respect to additional financing, refer to Note 9, Note 10, Note 11, and Note 18. In the event that the Company is unable to successfully raise capital and/or generate revenues, the Company will likely reduce general and administrative expenses, and cease or delay its development plan until it is able to obtain sufficient financing. The Company has begun reducing operating expenses and cash outflows by discontinuing operations of PlaySight, as well as selling 75 % of Foundation Sports. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Note 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Financial Statement Reclassification Certain prior year amounts within accounts payable, accrued expenses, and certain operating expenses have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation and had no effect on the Company’s balance sheet, net loss, shareholders’ deficit or cash flows. F- 9 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The majority of payments due from banks for credit card transactions process within 24 to 48 hours and are accordingly classified as cash and cash equivalents. As of April 30, 2022, the Company had $ 156,724 in restricted cash from PlaySight. Accounts Receivable The Company’s accounts receivable are non-interest bearing trade receivables resulting from the sale of products and payable over terms ranging from 15 to 60 days. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts at the point when collection is considered doubtful. Once all collection efforts have been exhausted, the Company charges-off the receivable with the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company recorded $ 175,000 in allowance for doubtful accounts for the year ended April 30, 2022. The Company did no t record an allowance for doubtful accounts for the year ended April 30, 2021. Inventory Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost (determined principally on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. The Company’s valuation of inventory includes inventory reserves for inventory that will be sold below cost and the impact of inventory shrink. Inventory reserves are based on historical information and assumptions about future demand and inventory shrink trends. The Company’s inventory for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 consisted of the following: SUMMARY OF INVENTORY 2022 2021 Finished Goods $ 4,397,098 $ 1,591,826 Component/Replacement Parts 2,559,848 1,777,028 Capitalized Duty/Freight 1,328,198 347,362 Inventory Reserve ( 100,000 ) ( 23,000 ) Total $ 8,185,144 $ 3,693,216 Prepaid Inventory Prepaid inventory represents inventory that is in-transit that has been paid for but not received from the Company’s third-party vendors. The Company typically prepays for the purchase of materials and receives the products within three months after making payments. The Company continuously monitors delivery from, and payments to, the vendors. If the Company has difficulty receiving products from a vendor, the Company would cease purchasing products from such vendors in future periods. The Company has not had difficulty receiving products during the reporting periods. Property and equipment Property and equipment acquired through business combinations are stated at the estimated fair value at the date of the acquisition. Purchases of property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Expenditures that materially increase the useful life of the assets are capitalized. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which is an average of 5 years. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts. While we may be exposed to credit risk, we consider the risk remote and do not expect that any such risk would result in a significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition. See Note 4 for further details on the Company’s concentration of credit risk as well as other risks and uncertainties. F- 10 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue for their continuing operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with its contracts with customers at a point in time once products are shipped. Amounts collected from customers in advance of shipping products ordered are reflected as contract liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s standard terms are non-cancelable and do not provide for the right-of-return, other than for defective merchandise covered under the Company’s standard warranty. The Company has not historically experienced any significant returns or warranty issues. The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The core principle of this revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle: Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer The Company determines that it has a contract with a customer when each party’s rights regarding the products or services to be transferred can be identified, the payment terms for the services can be identified, the Company has determined the customer has the ability and intent to pay, and the contract has commercial substance. At contract inception, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract and whether the combined or single contract includes more than one performance obligation. Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract The Company’s customers are buying an integrated system. In evaluating whether the equipment is a separate performance obligation, the Company’s management considered the customer’s ability to benefit from the equipment on its own or together with other readily available resources and if so, whether the service and equipment are separately identifiable (i.e., is the service highly dependent on, or highly interrelated with the equipment). Because the Products and Services included in the customer’s contract are integrated and highly interdependent, and because they must work together to deliver the Solution, the Company has concluded that Products installed on customer’s premise and Services contracted for by the customer are generally not distinct within the context of the contract and, therefore, constitute a single, combined performance obligation. Step 3: Determine the transaction price The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer includes predetermined fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. The Company’s contracts do not include any rights of returns or refunds. The Company collects each year’s service fees in advance and should therefore consider the existence of a significant financing component. However, due to the fact that the payments are provided for the service of a one-year term, the Company elected to apply the practical expedient under ASC 606 which exempts the adjustment of the consideration for the existence of a significant financing component when the period between the transfer of the services and the payment for such services is one year or less. Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on each performance obligation’s relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). The Company has identified a single performance obligation in the contract, and therefore, the allocation provisions under ASC 606 do not apply to the Company’s contracts. Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation Revenues for the Company’s single, combined performance obligation are recognized on a straight-line basis over the customer’s contract term, which is the period in which the parties to the contract have enforceable rights and obligations (Typically 3-4 years). Business Combinations Upon acquisition of a company, we determine if the transaction is a business combination, which is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, once control is obtained of a business, the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, are recorded at fair value. We use our best estimates and assumptions to assign fair value to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. One of the most significant estimates relates to the determination of the fair value of these assets and liabilities. The determination of the fair values is based on estimates and judgments made by management. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Measurement period adjustments are reflected at the time identified, up through the conclusion of the measurement period, which is the time at which all information for determination of the values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is received, and is not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. We may record adjustments to the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. The Company elected to apply pushdown accounting to all entities acquired during the year ended April 30, 2022. F- 11 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Additionally, uncertain tax positions and tax-related valuation allowances are initially recorded in connection with a business combination as of the acquisition date. We continue to collect information and reevaluate these estimates and assumptions periodically and record any adjustments to preliminary estimates to goodwill, provided we are within the measurement period. If outside of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the consolidated statement of operations. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows: Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 3 — Unobservable pricing inputs in the market Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their categorization within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity. The Company’s contingent consideration in connection with the acquisition of Gameface and PlaySight were calculated using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of contingent consideration as of April 30, 2022 was $ 1,334,000 . The Company estimates the fair value of its intangible assets using Level 3 assumptions, primarily based on the income approach utilizing the discounted cash flow method. The Company’s derivative liabilities were calculated using Level 2 assumptions on the issuance and balance sheet dates via a Black-Scholes option pricing model and consisted of the following ending balances and gain amounts as of and for the year ended April 30, 2022: SUMMARY OF DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES April 30, 2022 (Gain) loss for year Note derivative is related to ending balance ended April 30, 2022 4/11/21 conversion of 12/24/20 note payable $ 1,061,550 $ ( 168,301 ) 4/15/21 note payable — ( 6,014,245 ) 5/26/21 conversion of notes payable – related party — ( 2,867,749 ) 8/6/21 convertible notes 4,382,229 ( 9,506,889 ) Total $ 5,443,779 $ ( 18,557,184 ) The Black-Scholes option pricing model assumptions for the derivative liabilities during the year ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 consisted of the following: SUMMARY OF WARRANTS GRANTED VALUATION USING BLACK-SCHOLES PRICING METHOD 2022 2021 Expected life in years 1.95 - 4.3 years 1.7 - 5.0 years Stock price volatility 50 % 50 %- 155 % Risk free interest rate 2.67 %- 2.90 % 0.16 %- 1.56 % Expected dividends 0 % 0 % Refer to Note 10 and Note 11 for more information regarding the derivative instruments. F- 12 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. Intangible Assets Intangible assets relate to the “Slinger” technology trademark, which the Company purchased on November 10, 2020. The trademark is amortized over its expected life of 20 years. Amortization expense for the year ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 was $296,350 and $ 2,730 , respectively. The Company also acquired intangible assets as a part of the Gameface acquisition. These intangible assets include tradenames, internally developed software, and customer relationships. The acquired intangible assets are amortized based on the estimated present value of cash flows of each class of intangible assets in order to determine their economic useful life. The acquired tradenames, internally developed software, and customer relationships are amortized over their expected economic useful lives of 20 , 5 , and 15 , years respectively. Amortization expense for the acquired tradenames, internally developed software, and customer relationships for the year ended April 30, 2022 was $ 956 , $ 9,499 , and $ 33,749 , respectively. Refer to Note 7 for more information. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. Factors which could trigger impairment review include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the assets or the strategy for the overall business, a significant decrease in the market value of the assets or significant negative industry or economic trends. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. If those net undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value based on the market value or discounted expected cash flows of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. The Company performed this assessment in April 2022, and determined that the long-lived assets related to Foundation Sports were fully impaired as of April 30, 2022, resulting in an impairment loss of $ 1,056,599 . There was no impairment of long-lived assets identified during the year ended April 30, 2021. Goodwill The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that goodwill not be amortized, but reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise and, at a minimum, annually. The Company records goodwill as the excess purchase price over assets acquired and includes any work force acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis. With the adoption of the ASU 2017-04, which eliminates the second step of the goodwill impairment test, the Company tests impairment of goodwill in one step. In this step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units with goodwill using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company will not record an impairment charge. The Company determined in April 2022 that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit and therefore goodwill was fully impaired for Foundation Sports at April 30, 2022, resulting in an impairment loss of $ 2,430,000 . There was no impairment of goodwill as of April 30, 2021. F- 13 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Share-Based Payment The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (ASC 718). Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Warrants The Company grants warrants to key employees and executives as compensation on a discretionary basis. The Company also grants warrants in connection with certain note payable agreements and other key arrangements. The Company is required to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the measurement date and recognize as expense that value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest over the requisite service period. Warrants granted in connection with ongoing arrangements are more fully described in Note 11 and Note 14. The warrants granted during the year ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 were valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant using the following assumptions: SUMMARY OF WARRANTS GRANTED VALUATION USING BLACK-SCHOLES PRICING METHOD 2022 2021 Expected life in years 5 – 10 years 2 – 10 years Stock price volatility 50 % - 148 % 148 % - 280 % Risk free interest rate 0.77 % - 1.63 % 0.12 % - 1.64 % Expected dividends 0 % 0 % Foreign Currency Translation Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of our foreign operations, generally, is the respective local currency for each foreign subsidiary. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations denominated in local currencies are translated at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date. Our consolidated statements of comprehensive loss are translated at the weighted average rate of exchange during the applicable period. The resulting unrealized cumulative translation adjustment is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity. Realized and unrealized transaction gains and losses generated by transactions denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the applicable entity are recorded in other income (loss) in the period in which they occur. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. The Company had 538,947 and 692,130 common shares issuable as of April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, (see Note 9 and Note 10) which were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is antidilutive. The Company also had outstanding notes payable convertible into 10,327,778 shares of common stock as of April 30, 2022. No notes payable were convertible into common stock during the year ended April 30, 2021 (see Note 10), outstanding warrants exercisable into 3,881,364 and 2,450,311 shares of common stock as of April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 838,780 and 21,786 shares related to make-whole provisions as of April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, (see Note 11), which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is antidilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each of the periods presented. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04, goodwill impairment will be tested by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The new guidance must be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 effective May 1, 2021. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. F- 14 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which amends ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company has not yet adopted this update and is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and(2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”). The guidance replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credits, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842 on leases. ASC 326 requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of a company’s portfolio. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available-for-sale debt securities the Company does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell. The ASU can be adopted no later than January 1, 2020 for SEC filers and January 1, 2023 for private companies and smaller reporting companies. The Company has not yet adopted this ASU as it qualifies as a smaller reporting company. The Company does not expect this ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations - Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities (Topic 805)”. The amendments in this Update address diversity and inconsistency related to the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. The amendments in this Update require that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The FASB has issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2021-04 provides guidance that an entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. The standard also provides guidance on how an entity should measure and recognize the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2021-04 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures. F- 15 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Other recently issued accounting pronouncements did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material effect on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements. Note 4 : CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Revenue Concentration For the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company had four customers that accounted for 39.75 %, 12.97 %, 12.77 %, and 10.52 % of the Company’s revenues, respectively.

Note 5: ACQUISITIONS AND BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Foundation Sports Systems, LLC On June 21, 2021, the Company entered into a membership interest purchase agreement (“MIPA”) with Charles Ruddy (the “Seller”) to acquire a 100% ownership stake in Foundation Sports Systems, LLC (“Foundation Sports”) in exchange for 100,000 shares of common stock of the Company to be issued to the Seller and two other Foundation Sports employees in three tranches (the “Purchase Price”): (i) 60,000 shares of common stock on the closing date, (ii) 20,000 shares of common stock on the first anniversary of the closing date and (iii) 20,000 shares of common stock on the second anniversary of the closing date (collectively, the “Shares”), provided that 10 % of the Shares of each tranche will be held back by the Company and not delivered to the recipients for a period of 12 months from the date of their issuance. The Shares are subject to a 12-month lock-up from their date of delivery during which time they may not be offered or sold by the Seller or any other recipient thereof without the express written consent of the Company. On June 23, 2021, the Company issued 54,000 shares of its common stock to the receipts under the MIPA, which consisted of 60,000 shares less a hold-back of 10 % (i.e., 6,000 shares). F- 16 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination and elected to apply pushdown accounting to the entity. The Company allocated the aggregate purchase price for the acquisition based upon the tangible and intangible assets acquired, as the Company did not acquire any liabilities in this acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price is detailed below: SCHEDULE OF ASSETS ACQUIRED AND LIABILITY ASSUMED Consideration transferred: Equity consideration $ 3,550,000 Total Purchase Price $ 3,550,000 Description Fair Value Assets acquired: Trade name $ 70,000 Internally developed software 100,000 Customer relationships 950,000 Total assets acquired 1,120,000 Fair value of net assets acquired $ 1,120,000 Goodwill $ 2,430,000 The amounts allocated for internally developed software, customer relationships, and the goodwill were updated since the Company’s third quarter filing upon further review of the fair value of the intangible assets. The fair value of internally developed software and customer relationships decreased by $ 140,000 and $ 1,050,000 , respectively, resulting in an increase of $ 1,190,000 in the fair value of goodwill. There was no change in the total purchase price. As a result of the change in fair value of the intangible assets, the amortization expense of the intangible assets acquired from Foundation Sports decreased by $ 154,999 . (Refer to Note 18 related to the disposition of 75 % of this business in December 2022). The Company impaired all of the remaining intangible assets and goodwill on April 30, 2022 as market conditions changed from June 2021 through April 30, 2022 and the Company determined that there was no fair value associated with these assets that should be recognized as of April 30, 2022.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 9: NOTE PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY Beginning in October 2019, the Company entered into several loan agreements with a related party entity controlled by the former shareholder of Slinger Bag Canada. Total outstanding borrowings from this related party as of April 30, 2021 amounted to $ 6,220,000 , which was gross of total discounts of $ 76,777 and consisted of the following: SCHEDULE OF NOTES PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY Note Date Maturity Date Interest Rate April 30, 2021 6/1/2019 6/1/2021 9.5 % $ 1,700,000 6/30/2020 6/30/2021 9.5 % 120,000 8 notes from 10/2019 - 8/2020 9/1/2021 9.5 % 3,850,000 9/15/2020 9/15/2021 9.5 % 250,000 11/24/2020 11/24/2021 9.5 % 300,000 Total notes payable to related parties $ 6,220,000 On May 26, 2021, the Company and the related party lender entered into a note conversion agreement (the “Note Conversion Agreement”) whereby the related party lender agreed to convert its total outstanding borrowings as of that date of $ 6,220,000 into 163,684 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Note Conversion Agreement contains a guarantee that the aggregate gross sales of the shares by the related party will be no less than $ 6,220,000 over the next three years and if the aggregate gross sales are less than $ 6,220,000 the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to the related party for the difference between the total gross proceeds and $ 6,220,000 , which could result in an infinite number of shares being required to be issued. The Company evaluated the conversion option of the notes payable to shares under the guidance in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), and determined the conversion option qualified for equity classification. The Company also evaluated the profit guarantee under ASC 815 and determined it to be a make-whole provision, which is an embedded derivative within the host instrument. As the economic characteristics of the make-whole provision are dissimilar to the host instrument, the profit guarantee was bifurcated from the host instrument and stated as a separate derivative liability, which is marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative. On the date of conversion the Company recognized a $ 5,118,435 loss on extinguishment of debt, which represented the difference between the $ 6,220,000 in notes payable that were converted and the fair value of the shares issued of $ 6,220,003 , which were recorded in shares issued for conversion of notes payable – related party within shareholders’ equity, the derivative liability of $ 5,052,934 , which was valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the write-off of the unamortized debt discount of $ 65,498 . Amortization of the debt discounts during the three months ended July 31, 2021, prior to the notes’ conversion, was $ 11,279 , which was recorded in amortization of debt discounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Per the terms of the Note Conversion Agreement the accrued interest related to the notes payable was not converted into shares and is still due to the related party. The Company and the related party agreed that interest will be paid when separately agreed between the related party and the Company. On January 5, 2023, the Company and the related party entered into a forbearance agreement pursuant to which the Company has until December 30, 2023 to pay the outstanding balance of such interest, which is $ 917,957 . On July 23, 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement with its related party lender for borrowings of $ 500,000 . The loan is to be repaid within 30 days of receipt and shall bear interest at a rate of 12 % per annum. On August 4, 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement with its related party lender for borrowings of $ 500,000 . The loan is to be repaid within 30 days of receipt and shall bear interest at a rate of 12 % per annum. On August 11, 2021, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and interest to its related party lender for the July 23, 2021 loan of $ 500,000 and the August 4, 2021 loan of $ 500,000 . On August 31, 2021, the Company’s related party lender cancelled the guarantee in the Note Conversion Agreement that the aggregate gross sales of its converted shares will be no less than $ 6,220,000 . In connection with the elimination of the profit guarantee the derivative liability ceased to exist at that time. On August 31, 2021, the fair value of the derivative liability was remeasured using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and determined to be $ 2,185,185 . The change in fair value of the derivative through August 31, 2021, was recognized as a gain on change in fair value of derivatives of $ 2,867,749 for the year ended April 30, 2022, and the remaining value of the derivative of $ 2,185,185 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital as part of shareholders’ equity during the three months ended October 31, 2021 due to the related party nature of the transaction. F- 22 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into two loan agreements with related party lenders, each for $ 1,000,000 , pursuant to which the Company received a total amount of $ 2,000,000 . The loans bear interest at a rate of 8 % per annum and are required to be repaid in full by April 30, 2022 or such other date as may be accepted by the lenders. The Company is not permitted to make any distribution or pay any dividends unless or until the loans are repaid in full. On June 28, 2022, the Company entered into amendments for the two related party loan agreements with the lenders in which the repayment date was extended to July 31, 2024. As this amendment occurred after the reporting date of April 30, 2022, but before the issuance of the consolidated financial statements, this balance was reclassified to long-term liabilities. There was $ 2,000,000 in outstanding borrowings from related parties as of April 30, 2022. Interest expense related to the related parties for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $ 165,558 and $ 608,668 , respectively. Accrued interest due to related parties as of April 30, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $ 908,756 and $ 747,636 , respectively. Note 10: CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE On June 1, 2019, the Company entered into a convertible note payable agreement with Mont-Saic Investments LLC (“Mont-Saic”) which provided for borrowings of $ 1,700,000 bearing interest at a rate of 12.6 % per annum. All outstanding amounts were due on the maturity date 360 days after the loan issue date . The Company may repay up to 50 % of the outstanding balance on the loan prior to the maturity date at their discretion. The outstanding principal and accrued interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at the option of the debtholder at a conversion price equal to 75 % of the lowest closing price of the common stock as defined in the agreement. The convertible note payable agreement, as amended on September 11, 2019, also provided Mont-Saic with a warrant giving them the right to acquire 33 % of the outstanding shares of SBL on a fully-diluted basis for no consideration up through one year after the maturity date. On September 16, 2019, Mont-Saic and Slinger Bag Inc. entered into a warrant assignment and conveyance agreement which updated Mont-Saic’s right to acquire 33 % of the outstanding common stock shares of SBL to Slinger Bag Inc. The allocated value of the warrant of $ 1,492,188 was recorded as a discount to the outstanding note balance. On May 6, 2020, the Company issued 1,216,560 shares of common stock as partial satisfaction of the shares issuable. On June 1, 2020, the Company and Mont-Saic entered into an amendment to the convertible note payable agreement to eliminate the conversion right contained in the original agreement and extend the maturity date to June 1, 2021. The Company evaluated the conversion option under the guidance in ASC 815-10, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined it to have characteristics of a derivative liability. Under this guidance, this derivative liability is marked-to-market at each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivatives. The value of the conversion option derivative amounted to $ 566,667 as of the issuance date on September 11, 2019, which was recorded as a discount to the outstanding note balance less $ 358,855 representing the amount of the conversion option exceeding the face value of the note payable which was recorded immediately as interest expense, and a derivative liability. On June 1, 2020, in connection with the elimination of the conversion option, this derivative ceased to exist and the value of the derivative of $ 566,667 was recognized as a loss on extinguishment of debt on the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended April 30, 2021. The combined discount relating to the warrant and conversion option were amortized over the term of the agreement. Amortization of debt discounts during the year ended April 30, 2020 amounted to $ 1,493,939 , and were recorded as amortization of debt discount in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The remaining $ 206,061 was amortized during the year ended April 30, 2021. On December 3, 2020, Mont-Saic entered into an Assignment and Conveyance Agreement with the Company’s exiting related party lender wherein Mont-Saic sold its full right, title and interest in its outstanding notes payable amounting to $ 1,820,000 , which consisted of the $ 1,700,000 note payable and the $ 120,000 note payable (see Note 9), to the Company’s related party lender, along with the 121,656 shares of common stock previously issued to Mont-Saic in connection with the debt agreement and the rights to receive the remaining 692,130 shares issuable (see Note 5). On February 11, 2020, the Company entered into a convertible note payable agreement for borrowings of $ 125,000 bearing interest at 12 % per annum. All outstanding borrowings and accrued interest were due on February 11, 2021 . The outstanding principal and accrued interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at the option of the debtholder at a conversion price equal to 70 % of the lowest closing price of the common stock as defined in the agreement. On September 4, 2020, the Company and the convertible debtholder entered into an agreement to convert the outstanding convertible note payable balance of $ 125,000 and accrued interest of $ 8,466 into 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the guidance in ASC 470-20-40-16, the Company recognized an expense at the conversion date equal to the fair value of the shares transferred after the change in terms, less the fair value of securities issuable under the original conversion terms. The excess in value, which amounted to $ 51,412 was recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss during the year ended April 30, 2021. F- 23 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At the time of the conversion, the remaining debt discount was fully amortized and the derivative liability amount of $ 53,571 was reclassified as additional paid-in capital as part of shareholders’ equity. Amortization of debt discounts during the year ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 was $ 8,127,778 and $ 42,872 , respectively, and was recorded as amortization of debt discount in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The unamortized discount balance amounted to $ 2,872,222 and zero as of April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. On August 6, 2021, the Company consummated the closing (the “Closing”) of a private placement offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between the Company and certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). At the Closing, the Company sold to the Purchasers (i) 8 % Senior Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $ 11,000,000 and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 733,333 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrants” and together with the Convertible Notes, the “Securities”). The Company received an aggregate of $ 11,000,000 in gross proceeds from the Offering, before deducting offering expenses and commissions. The Convertible Notes mature on August 6, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”) and bear interest at 8 % per annum payable on each conversion date (as to that principal amount then being converted), on each redemption date as well as mandatory redemption date (as to that principal amount then being redeemed) and on the Maturity Date, in cash. The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time following the date of issuance and prior to Mandatory Conversion (as defined in the Convertible Notes) at the conversion price equal to the lesser of: (i) $ 3.00 , subject to adjustment set forth in the Convertible Notes and (ii) in the case of an uplist to the NASDAQ, the Uplist Conversion Price (as defined in the Convertible Notes) of the Company’s common stock during the two Trading Day (as defined in the Convertible Notes) period after each conversion date; provided, however, that at any time from and after December 31, 2021 or an Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Notes), the holder of the Convertible Notes may, by delivery of written notice to the Company, elect to cause all, or any part, of the Convertible Notes to be converted, at any time thereafter, each an “Alternate Conversion”, pursuant to the Section 4(f) of the Convertible Notes, all, or any part of, the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock at the Alternate Conversion price. The Convertible Notes rank pari passu with all other notes now or thereafter issued under the terms set forth in the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes in case of certain future dilutive events or stock-splits and dividends. The Warrants are exercisable for five years from August 6, 2021 , at an exercise price equal to the lesser of $ 3.00 or a 20% discount to the public offering price that a share of the Company’s common stock or unit (if units are offered) is offered to the public resulting in the commencement of trading of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange or NYSE American. The Warrants contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the amount of securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in case of certain future dilutive events or stock-splits and dividends. The Company evaluated the Warrants and the conversion options under the guidance in ASC 815 and determined they represent derivative liabilities given the variability in the exercise and conversion prices upon the event of an up list to the NASDAQ. The Company also evaluated the other embedded features in the agreement and determined the interest make-whole provision and the subsequent financing redemption represent put features that are also accounted for as derivative liabilities. The derivative liabilities are marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative (see Note 3). The Warrants were valued at $ 12,026,668 on the date of issuance using a Monte Carlo simulation that accounted for the variability in the exercise price upon the event of an up list based on the Company’s expected future stock prices over the five -year term using inputs in line with those listed in Note 3. The remaining derivatives were valued at $ 1,862,450 on the issuance date based on the present value of their weighted average probability value. As part of the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company incurred and capitalized debt issuance costs of $ 800,251 related to brokerage and legal fees that met the debt issuance cost capitalization criteria of ASC 835. The total discount related to the Convertible Notes on the date of issuance of $ 14,689,369 exceeded their value, which resulted in the Company recognizing a $ 3,689,369 loss on the issuance of the Convertible Notes during the three months ended October 31, 2021. The discount on the Convertible Notes will be amortized through the maturity date on a straight-line basis. Amortization of the debt discount for the year ended April 30, 2022 was $ 8,127,778 , which was recorded in amortization of debt discounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The unamortized discount balance amounted to $ 2,872,222 as of April 30, 2022. F- 24 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into an Omnibus Amendment Agreement (the “Omnibus Agreement”) with certain Purchasers who are collectively holders of 67% or more of the Securities outstanding related to the August 6, 2021 Convertible Notes, amending each of (i) the Purchase Agreement and (ii) the Registration Rights Agreement. Simultaneously with the execution of the Omnibus Agreement, the Company issued to each Purchaser a Replacement Note (as defined below) in replacement of the Convertible Note held prior to December 31, 2021 by such Purchaser (each, an “Existing Note”) . The Purchase Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) delete Exhibit A and replace it in its entirety with the 8% Senior Convertible Note (the “Replacement Note”) filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s current report on Form 8-K dated January 5, 2021, (ii) add a new definition of “Inventory Financing”, (iii) amend Section 4.18 to add at the end of Section 4.18 before the final period “, it being agreed that the provisions of this Section 4.18 shall not apply to the Qualified Subsequent Financing expected to occur after the date hereof”, (iv) delete Section 4.20 and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text, including the following after the period, replacing the period with a semicolon: “; provided that the provisions of this Section 4.20 shall not apply to (i) in respect of any Holder to the extent that such Holder is an investor or a purchaser of the securities offered pursuant such Subsequent Financing, and (ii) with respect to an Inventory Financing.”, and (v) add a new Section 4.21. Most-Favored Nation provision. The Registration Rights Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) delete the definition “Effectiveness Date” in Section 1 and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text but revise the definition of “Effectiveness Date” causing the Initial Registration Statement required to be filed by January 31, 2022, and (ii) delete Section 2(d) and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text but revised to delete the following “(2) no liquidated damages shall accrue or be payable hereunder with respect to any day on which the high price of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded is less than the then-applicable Conversion Price,” resulting in renumbering the text that follows as (2) instead of (3). As consideration for entering into the Omnibus Agreement, the outstanding principal balance of the Existing Note held by each Purchaser was increased by twenty percent ( 20 % ) and such increased principal balance is reflected on the Replacement Note issued to each Purchaser. The Company recognized a $ 2,200,000 loss on issuance of convertible notes during the year ended April 30, 2022 related to this amendment. The fair value of the derivative liability related to the Convertible Notes was $ 4,382,229 as of April 30, 2022, and the Company recognized a gain on change in fair value of $ 9,506,889 for the year ended April 30, 2022. Total outstanding borrowings related to the Convertible Notes as of April 30, 2022 were $ 13,200,000 . The outstanding amount is net of total discounts of $ 2,872,222 for a net book value of $ 10,327,778 as of April 30, 2022. Interest expense related to the Convertible Notes for the year ended April 30, 2022 was $ 708,677 . Note 11: NOTES PAYABLE On March 16, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note payable whereby the Company borrowed $ 500,000 bearing interest at 12 % per annum. Interest on the note is payable monthly and outstanding principal on the note was due in full on March 16, 2022 . In connection with the promissory note payable on March 16, 2020, the Company issued warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to a 40 % discount of the market price of the Company’s stock, as defined in the agreement. The warrants expired on March 16, 2022 and were fully vested upon issuance. The note was discounted by $ 112,990 based on an allocation of the value of the warrants issued. The discount recorded on the note was amortized into amortization of debt discount through the maturity date, which amounted to $ 35,542 for the year ended April 30, 2021. On December 15, 2020, the debt holder agreed to convert the outstanding note payable of $ 500,000 into 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as full settlement of the promissory note payable. Accrued interest on the note was paid in cash. As a result of this settlement, the Company recognized the unamortized debt discount of $ 70,483 as a loss on extinguishment of debt on the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss during the year ended April 30, 2021. On June 30, 2020, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Mont-Saic to borrow $ 120,000 . This loan bears interest at an annual rate of 12.6 % and was required to be repaid in full, together with all accrued, but unpaid, interest by June 30, 2021. On December 3, 2020, Mont-Saic entered into an Assignment and Conveyance Agreement with the Company’s exiting related party lender wherein Mont-Saic sold its full right, title and interest in this note to the Company’s related party lender (see Note 9). F- 25 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On December 24, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note with a third-party to borrow $ 1,000,000 . The promissory note bore interest at 2.25 % and was due February 8, 2021. On February 2, 2021, the Company and the third-party entered into an amendment to extend the promissory note to April 30, 2021. On April 11, 2021, the Company and the lender entered into an agreement whereby the lender converted the promissory note into 27,233 shares of Company stock, which were issued to the lender at a 20 % discount from the closing price of the stock on the day prior to the conversion. In addition to the discount, the agreement contains a guarantee that the aggregate gross sales of the shares by the lender will be no less than $ 1,500,000 over the next three years and if the aggregate gross sales are less than $ 1,500,000 the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to the lender for the difference between the total gross proceeds and $ 1,500,000 , which could result in an infinite number of shares being required to be issued. The Company evaluated the conversion option of the note payable to shares under the guidance in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined the conversion option qualified for equity classification. The Company also evaluated the profit guarantee under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined it to be a make-whole provision, which is an embedded derivative within the host instrument. As the economic characteristics are dissimilar to the host instrument, the profit guarantee was bifurcated from the host instrument and stated as a separate derivative liability, which is marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative. On the date of conversion, the Company recognized a $ 1,501,914 loss on extinguishment of debt, which represented the difference between the promissory note and the fair value of the shares issued of $ 1,250,004 , which were recorded in shares issued in connection with conversion of note payable within shareholders’ equity, as well as the derivative liability of $ 1,251,910 , which was valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the derivative liability was $ 1,061,550 as of April 30, 2022, and the Company recognized a gain on change in fair value of $ 168,301 for the year ended April 30, 2022. On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into a $ 2,000,000 note payable (the “Note”). The Note matures April 14, 2023 and bears interest at fifteen percent ( 15 % ) per year. The Company pays interest at maturity, at which time all principal and unpaid interest is due. The Note is collateralized by all business assets, including patents, trademarks and other intellectual property. It is also collateralized by the ownership of Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag Limited, and Slinger Bag International (UK) Limited. In connection with the Note, the Company issued 220,000 warrants with an exercise price of $ 0.25 . The exercise price has customary anti-dilution protection for stock splits, mergers, etc. Additionally, the warrant contains a stipulation that the Company will guarantee the value of the shares sold will be no less, on average, than $1.50 per share through April 15, 2023. If the value is less than $1.50 per share, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to compensate for the shortfall, which could result in an infinite number of shares being required to be issued . The Company evaluated the warrants and the profit guarantee under the guidance in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging and determined they represent a derivative liability given the profit guarantee represents a make-whole provision that is not separated from the host instrument. The derivative liability is marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative (see Note 3). The fair value of the derivative liability on the date of the execution of the Note was valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model at $ 14,501,178 , which was first allocated as a discount to the Note payable of $ 2,000,0000 , which will be amortized using the effective interest method over the remaining term of the Note, with the remainder of the value of $ 12,501,178 recorded as interest expense. On August 6, 2021, the Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes (see Note 10) to pay 100% of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Note. Amortization of the debt discount related to the Note during the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 was $ 11,228 and $ 10,477 , respectively, which was recorded in amortization of debt discounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. On the date the Note was paid off the unamortized debt discount balance of $ 1,978,295 was recognized as a loss on extinguishment of debt during the year ended April 30, 2022. F- 26 CONNEXA SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On August 6, 2021, the Note payable holder exercised its right to convert its 220,000 outstanding warrants into shares of common stock of the Company. At the conversion date the Note payable holder also agreed to cancel the guarantee that the value of the shares sold will be no less, on average, than $1.50 per share through April 15, 2023 . In connection with the elimination of the profit guarantee the derivative liability ceased to exist at that time. On August 6, 2021, the fair value of the derivative liability was remeasured using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and determined to be $ 6,569,353 . The change in fair value of the derivative through August 6, 2021, was recognized as a gain on change in fair value of derivatives of $ 6,014,245 for the year ended April 30, 2022, and the remaining value of the derivative of $ 6,569,353 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital as part of shareholders’ equity during the year ended April 30, 2022 due to the related party nature of the transaction. There were no outstanding borrowings related to the Note as of April 30, 2022. Interest expense related to the Note for the year ended April 30, 2022 amounted to $ 106,667 .
