ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure Controls and Procedures We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to material weaknesses, which we identified in our report on internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. Our management’s evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting was based on the 2013 framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that as of December 31, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the following material weaknesses which we identified in our internal control over financial reporting: (1) the lack of multiples levels of management review on complex accounting and financial reporting issues, (2) we had not implemented adequate system and manual controls, and (3) a lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function as a result of our limited financial resources to support hiring of personnel and implementation of accounting systems. Until such time as we expand our staff to include additional accounting personnel and hire a full-time chief financial officer, it is likely we will continue to report material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. 37 A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of control deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additional controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Changes in Internal Control There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Code of Ethics We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those employees responsible for financial reporting.

We intend to disclose any amendments to our code of business conduct and ethics, or waivers of its requirements, on our website or in filings under the Exchange Act to the extent required by applicable rules and exchange requirements. Director Independence Five of our seven board members are independent. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Friedman, Honaman, Kane, Dr. Overstreet, and Mr. Stevens is an independent director pursuant to the NASDAQ listing standards. Under the NASDAQ rules, no director qualifies as independent unless the Board affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with us (directly, or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us). In assessing the independence of our directors, the Board considers all of the business relationships between the Company and our directors and their respective affiliated companies. This review is based primarily on the Company’s review of its own records and on responses of the directors to questions in a questionnaire regarding employment, business, family, compensation and other relationships with the Company and our management. Where relationships exist, the Board determines whether the relationship between the Company and the directors or the directors’ affiliated companies impairs the directors’ independence. After consideration of the directors’ relationships with the Company, the Board has affirmatively determined that none of the individuals serving as non-employee directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 had a material relationship with us and that each of such non-employee directors is independent. 41 Bryan McLaren was not considered an independent director during his service on the Board during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 because of his employment as our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, and Secretary. Alex McLaren, MD was not considered an independent director during his service on the Board during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 because Bryan McLaren is the son of Dr. McLaren.

(ii) If Mr. McLaren’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Mr. McLaren other than for Good Reason, disability, death or retirement, the Company will pay Mr. McLaren his full base salary through the date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time notice of Termination is given, plus all other amounts and benefits to which Mr. McLaren is entitled under any compensation plan of the Company at the time such payments are due. (iii) If employment by the Company shall be terminated (a) by the Company other than for Cause, death or disability or (b) by Mr. McLaren for Good Reason, Mr. McLaren will be entitled to benefits provided below: a.

The Company will pay Mr. McLaren any deferred compensation allocated or credited to Mr. McLaren or his account as of the date of Termination. d. In lieu of shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of outstanding options, if any, granted to Mr. McLaren under the Company’s stock option plans (which options shall be cancelled upon the making of the payment referred to below), Mr. McLaren will receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the excess of the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on or nearest the date of Termination (or, if not so reported, on the basis of the average of the lowest asked and highest bid prices on or nearest the date of Termination), over the per share exercise price of each option held by Mr. McLaren (whether or not then fully exercisable) plus the amount of any applicable cash appreciation rights, times (ii) the number of the Company’s common stock covered by each such option. e. The Company will also pay Mr. McLaren all legal fees and expenses incurred by Mr. McLaren as a result of such Termination. (iv) In the event that Mr. McLaren is a “disqualified individual” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, the parties expressly agree that the payments described herein and all other payments to Mr. McLaren under any other agreements or arrangements with any persons which constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code are collectively subject to an overall maximum limit. Such maximum limit shall be $1 less than the aggregate amount which would otherwise cause any such payments to be considered a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, as determined by the Company. Additionally, on August 16, 2024, the Company’s Compensation Committee approved a Compensation Memo whereby brokerage project team members shall receive up to 80% bonus splits of the fees generated by transactions. In connection with such a bonus, in 2024, the Company paid Mr. McLaren a bonus of $56,473. 46 Blackwell Employment Agreement On July 26, 2022, the Company entered into an employment agreement, effective July 1, 2022, with Mr. Blackwell (the “Blackwell Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Blackwell Employment Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Blackwell a base annual salary of $150,000 for his services as President and Chief Operating Officer. The Company may also award Mr. Blackwell discretionary cash and/or equity bonuses. In April 2023, Mr. Blackwells base annual salary was increased in $190,000. The Blackwell Employment Agreement has a term of one year, expiring on July 1, 2023. During the initial term, neither party may terminate the Blackwell Employment Agreement except for Cause (as hereinafter defined).

The Blackwell Employment Agreement will continue to be in full force and effect after July 1, 2023, except that either party may terminate the Blackwell Employment Agreement for any reason upon 30 days’ written notice. The Blackwell Employment Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants customary for an agreement of this type. Additionally, on August 16, 2024, the Company’s Compensation Committee approved a Compensation Memo whereby brokerage project team members shall receive up to 80% bonus splits of the fees generated by brokerage transactions.

Outstanding Equity Awards at 2024 Fiscal Year-End The following table sets forth information as options outstanding on December 31, 2024.

Also required by the SEC, this section compares CAP to various measures used to gauge performance at Company. Pay versus Performance Table - Compensation Definitions Salary, Bonus, Stock Awards, and All Other Compensation are each calculated in the same manner for purposes of both CAP and SCT values. The primary difference between the calculation of CAP and SCT total compensation is “Stock Awards.” SCT Total CAP Stock Awards Grant date fair value of stock and option awards granted during the year Year over year change in the fair value of stock and option awards that are unvested as of the end of the year, or vested or were forfeited during the year 2024 Pay Versus Performance Table In accordance with the SEC’s new PVP rules, the following table sets forth information concerning the compensation of our NEOs for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, and our financial performance for each such fiscal year: Year (1) Summary Compensation Table Total for PEO Compensation Actually Paid to PEO (2)(3) Average Summary Compensation Table Total for Non-PEO NEOs Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs Value of Initial Fixed $100 Investment Based On Total Shareholder Return Net Income (Loss) 2024 $ 306,473 $ 307,515 $ 247,473 $ 245,170 $ 109.56 $ 573,958 2023 $ 250,000 $ 228,486 $ 157,864 $ 104,921 $ 116.55 $ (540,258 ) 2022 $ 246,758 $ 228,999 $ 203,280 $ 194,180 $ 174.78 $ (574,355 ) (1) The principal executive officer (“PEO”) in 2024, 2023, and 2022 is Bryan McLaren, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The non-PEO NEOs in 2024 is Berekk Blackwell, and in 2023 and 2022 was Berekk Blackwell and Dan Gauthier. (2) The CAP was calculated beginning with the PEO’s SCT total. The following amounts were deducted from and added to the applicable SCT total compensation: SCT Total Stock Awards Deducted from SCT Stock Awards Added to CAP Stock Option Awards Deducted from SCT Stock Option Awards Added to CAP Total CAP A - (B + D) (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) + (C + E) PEO 2024 $ 306,473 $ - $ - $ - $ 1,042 $ 307,515 2023 $ 250,000 $ - $ - $ - $ (21,514 ) $ 228,486 2022 $ 246,758 $ - $ - $ - $ (17,759 ) $ 228,999 Average Non-PEO NEO 2024 $ 247,473 $ - $ - $ - $ (2,303 ) $ 245,170 2023 $ 157,864 $ - $ - $ - $ (52,943 ) $ 104,921 2022 $ 203,280 $ - $ - $ (137,754 ) $ 128,654 $ 194,180 (3) The fair value of stock options reported for CAP purposes in columns (C) and (E) above was estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model for the purposes of this PVP calculation in accordance with the SEC rules. This model uses both historical data and current market data to estimate the fair value of options and requires several assumptions. The assumptions used in estimating fair value for awards granted during 2024, 2023 and 2022 were as follows: Grant Year 2024 2023 2022 Volatility 75.0 – 83.4% 52.2 – 106.7% 106.7 – 112.3% Expected life (in years) 2 – 7 years 3 – 7 years 4 – 10 years Expected dividend yield 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% Risk-free rate 4.01 – 4.38% 3.94 – 4.01% 1.75 – 3.94% 48 Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans On August 9, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized the 2016 Plan and reserved 10,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance thereunder. The 2016 Plan was approved by shareholders on November 21, 2016. The 2016 Plan’s purpose is to encourage ownership in the Company by employees, officers, directors and consultants whose long-term service the Company considers essential to its continued progress and, thereby, encourage recipients to act in the stockholders’ interest and share in the Company’s success. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of awards in the form of options intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code, options that do not qualify (non-statutory stock options) and grants of restricted shares of common stock. Restricted shares granted pursuant to the 2016 Plan are amortized to expense over the three-year vesting period. Options vest and expire over a period not to exceed seven years. If any share of common stock underlying a stock option that has been granted ceases to be subject to a stock option, or if any shares of common stock that are subject to any other stock-based award granted are forfeited or terminate, such shares shall again be available for distribution in connection with future grants and awards under the 2016 Plan. As of December 31, 2023, 1,012,500 stock option awards have been granted under the 2016 Plan. On December 31, 2023, 8,987,500 shares are available for future issuance. The Company also continues to maintain its 2014 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2014 Plan”), pursuant to which 1,250,000 previously awarded stock options are outstanding. The 2016 Plan has superseded the 2014 Plan. Accordingly, no additional shares subject to the existing 2014 Plan will be issued and the 1,250,000 shares issuable upon exercise of stock options will be issued pursuant to the 2014 Plan, if exercised. As of December 31, 2024, options to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock are outstanding and 1,250,000 options are exercisable pursuant to the 2014 Plan. As of December 31, 2023, options to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock are outstanding and 1,225,000 options are exercisable pursuant to the 2014 Plan. The table below sets forth information as of December 31, 2024.

On November 25, 2024, the director listed above received 105,000 stock options to purchase 105,000 shares of restricted stock with an exercise price of $0.49 per share. 49 ITEM 12.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE We do not have a written policy for the review, approval or ratification of transactions with related parties or conflicted transactions. When such transactions arise, they are referred to the audit committee for consideration for referral to our board of directors for its consideration. Director Independence Five of our seven board members are independent. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Friedman, Honaman, Kane, Dr. Overstreet, and Stevens is an independent director pursuant to the NASDAQ listing standards. Under the NASDAQ rules, no director qualifies as independent unless the Board affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with us (directly, or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us). In assessing the independence of our directors, the Board considers all of the business relationships between the Company and our directors and their respective affiliated companies. This review is based primarily on the Company’s review of its own records and on responses of the directors to questions in a questionnaire regarding employment, business, familial, compensation and other relationships with the Company and our management. Where relationships exist, the Board determines whether the relationship between the Company and the directors or the directors’ affiliated companies impairs the directors’ independence. After consideration of the directors’ relationships with the Company, the Board has affirmatively determined that none of the individuals serving as non-employee directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 had a material relationship with us and that each of such non-employee directors is independent. Bryan McLaren was not considered an independent director during his service on the Board during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 because of his employment as our Chairman of the Board, CEO, CFO, and Treasurer. Alex McLaren, MD was not considered an independent director during his service on the Board during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 because Dr. McLaren is the father of Bryan. 51 ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES The following table sets forth the fees that were billed or that will be billed to our company for professional services rendered by Salberg & Company, P.A. for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023: Fees 2024 2023 Audit Fees $ 72,500 $ 63,900 Audit-Related Fees 0 0 Tax Fees 0 0 Other Fees 0 0 Total Fees $ 72,500 $ 63,900 Audit Fees Audit fees were for professional services rendered for the audits of our financial statements and for review of our quarterly financial statements. Audit-Related Fees During 2024 and 2023, our independent registered public accountants did not provide any assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review or our financial statements that are not reported under the caption “Audit Fees” above. Tax Fees As our independent registered public accountants did not provide any services to us for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning during 2024 and 2023, no tax fees were billed or paid during those fiscal years. All Other Fees Our independent registered public accountants did not provide any products and services not disclosed in the table above during 2024 and 2023. As a result, there were no other fees billed or paid during 2024 and 2023. Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures Our Audit Committee pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by our Audit Committee before the respective services were rendered. Our board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent registered public accounting firm and believe that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining their respective independence. 52 PART IV ITEM 15.

AND SUBSIDIARIES INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 and 2023 Page Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID No. 106 ) F-2 Consolidated Financial Statements: Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 F-3 Consolidated Statements of Operations – For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 F-4 Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity - For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 F-5 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows – For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 F-6 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements F-7 to F-34 F- 1 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of: Zoned Properties, Inc. Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Zoned Properties, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters. /s/ Salberg & Company, P.A. SALBERG & COMPANY, P.A. We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023 .

F- 6 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS Zoned Properties, Inc. (“Zoned Properties” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2003 . In October 2013, the Company changed its name to Zoned Properties, Inc. and in April 2014, the Company shifted its business model to address commercial real estate in the regulated cannabis industry. Zoned Properties is a technology-driven property investment company focused on acquiring value-add real estate within the regulated cannabis industry in the United States. The Company aspires to innovate within the real estate development sector, focusing on direct-to-consumer real estate that is leased to the best-in-class cannabis retailers. Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Zoned Properties is redefining the approach to commercial real estate investment through its standardized investment model backed by its proprietary property technology. Zoned Properties has developed a national ecosystem of real estate services to support its real estate development model, including a commercial real estate brokerage and a real estate advisory practice. The Company operates in two organized segments; (1) the operations, leasing and management of its commercial properties, herein known as the “Property Investment Portfolio” segment, and (2) the advisory, brokerage and technology services related to commercial properties, herein known as the “Real Estate Services” segment. The Company targets commercial properties that face unique zoning or development challenges, identifies solutions that can potentially have a major impact on their commercial value, and then works to acquire the properties while securing long-term, absolute-net leases. The Company does not grow, harvest, sell or distribute cannabis or any substances regulated under United States law such as the Controlled Substance Act of 1970, as amended (the “CSA”). The Company has the following wholly owned subsidiaries: ● Chino Valley Properties, LLC (“Chino Valley”) was organized in the State of Arizona on April 15, 2014. ● Kingman Property Group, LLC (“Kingman”) was organized in the State of Arizona on April 15, 2014. ● Green Valley Group, LLC (“Green Valley”) organized in the State of Arizona on April 15, 2014. ● Zoned Arizona Properties, LLC (“Zoned Arizona”) was organized in the State of Arizona on June 2, 2017. ● Zoned Advisory Services, LLC (“Zoned Advisory”) was organized in the State of Arizona on July 27, 2018. ● Zoned Properties Brokerage, LLC (“Arizona Brokerage”) was organized in the State of Arizona on March 17, 2021. ● ZP Data Platform 1, LLC (“ZP Data 1”) was organized in the State of Arizona on April 14, 2021 (inactive). ● ZP Data Platform 2, LLC (“ZP Data 2”) was organized in the State of Arizona on June 21, 2022. ● ZP RE Holdings, LLC (“ZPRE Holdings”) was organized in the State of Arizona on September 20, 2022. ● ZP Brokerage MS, LLC (“Mississippi Brokerage”) was organized in the State of Mississippi on October 4, 2022 (inactive and dissolved on January 13, 2025) ● ZP Brokerage FL, LLC (“Florida Brokerage”) was organized in the State of Florida on October 20, 2022. ● ZP Brokerage AL, LLC (“Alabama Brokerage”) was organized in the State of Alabama on October 20, 2022 (inactive and dissolved on January 9, 2025). ● ZP RE MI Woodward, LLC (“ZP Woodward”) was organized in the State of Michigan on November 22, 2022 ● ZP Brokerage MO, LLC (“Missouri Brokerage”) was organized in the State of Missouri on November 30, 2022 (inactive and dissolved on January 13, 2025.) ● ZP RE IL Ashland, LLC (“ZP Ashland”) was organized in the State of Illinois on February 14, 2024. ● ZP RE AZ DYSART.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Liquidity As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company generated net income of $ 573,958 and cash provided by operations of $ 578,218 during the year ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, as of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash of $ 1,019,980 and stockholders’ equity of $ 5,860,514 . The cash balance and positive net cash provided by operating activities serves to mitigate the conditions that historically raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes that the Company has sufficient cash and positive cash flows to meet its obligations for a minimum of twelve months from the date of this filing. Use of estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 include the collectability of accounts receivable, valuation of investment in equity securities, the useful life of rental properties and property and equipment, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets including rental property and investment in unconsolidated joint ventures, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, the fair value of derivative asset or liability related to interest rate swap, and the fair value of non-cash equity transactions, including options and stock-based compensation. Risks and uncertainties The Company’s operations are subject to risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks including the potential risk of business failure. The Company conducts a significant portion of its business in states that have legalized and regulated cannabis. Additionally, the Company’s tenants operate in the state-legalized and state-regulated cannabis industry. Consequently, any significant economic downturn in the state markets in which the Company operates or any changes in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws or changes in state laws could potentially have a negative effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, substantially all of the Company’s real estate properties are leased under triple-net or absolute-net leases to tenants (each, a “Significant Tenant” and collectively, the “Significant Tenants”). For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, revenues associated with Significant Tenants amounted to $ 2,366,645 and $ 2,394,029 , respectively, which represents 62.4 % and 82.9 % of the Company’s total revenues, respectively (see Note 3). Fair value of financial instruments The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, capitalized project costs, escrow deposits, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other payables approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), requires companies to determine fair value based on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability to a market participant. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. The guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: ● Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. ● Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. ● Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Other than the interest rate swap, the Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value, on a recurring basis, in accordance with ASC Topic 820. F- 8 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 The following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy of its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Description Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Interest rate swap asset $ — $ 44,581 $ — $ — $ — $ — Interest rate swap liability $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 122,879 $ — Interest rate swap In connection with a bank loan executed in 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to manage interest rate risk related to debt that accrues interest at variable rates. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap agreement in accordance with the guidance related to derivatives and hedging activities. The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. The Company agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed upon notional principal amount. Interest payments receivable and payable under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement are accrued over the period to which the payment relates and the net difference is treated as an adjustment of interest expense related to the underlying liability. Because the variable interest rates used to calculate payments under the terms of the swap agreement are calculated using different benchmarks than those included in the Company’s variable rate debt agreement, the swap agreement is not considered an effective cash flow hedge. Accordingly, changes in the underlying market value of the remaining swap payments are recognized into income as an increase or decrease to other income (expense) each reporting period. In accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , the Company believes values provided by East West Bank (the “Counterparty”) represent the fair value of its swap agreement. The Company believes that the quality of the Counterparty to its swap agreement mitigates the Counterparty credit risk. The estimated fair value of the interest rate swap agreement is determined by the Counterparty based on market data used by Counterparty and is reflected as a derivative asset or liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet with changes in the fair value reflected in change in fair value of interest rate swap on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses derivative financial instruments only to manage interest rate risks and not as investment vehicles. Information regarding the interest rate swap is as follows: Description Notional Amount on December 31, 2024 Interest Rate Maturity Fair Value of Asset on December 31, 2024 Fair Value of Liability on December 31, 2023 December 10, 2022 interest rate swap $ — 7.65 % December 10, 2032 $ 44,581 $ 122,879 Cash Cash is carried at cost and represents cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments. The Company had no cash equivalents on December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company’s cash is held at major commercial banks, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limit. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its invested cash. On December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had approximately $ 510,000 and $ 2,555,000 , respectively, of cash in excess of FDIC limits of $ 250,000 . Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds above the FDIC limit could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Accounts receivable The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries under the current expected credit loss method. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible. On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses”. In accordance with ASC 326, an allowance is maintained for estimated forward-looking losses resulting from the possible inability of customers to make required payments (current expected losses). The amount of the allowance is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience and known financial factors regarding specific customers. The expense associated with the allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is recognized in general and administrative expenses. F- 9 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 Investment in unconsolidated joint ventures The Company has equity investments in various privately held entities. The Company accounts for these investments either under the equity method or cost method of accounting depending on the Company’s ownership interest and level of influence. Investments accounted for under the equity method are recorded based upon the amount of the Company’s investment and adjusted each period for its share of the investee’s income or loss. Investments are reviewed for changes in circumstance or the occurrence of events that suggest an other than temporary event where our investment may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates its investments in these entities for consolidation. It considers its percentage interest in the joint venture, evaluation of control and whether a variable interest entity exists when determining whether or not the investment qualifies for consolidation or if it should be accounted for as an unconsolidated investment under the equity method of accounting. If an investment qualifies for the equity method of accounting, the Company’s investment is recorded initially at cost, and subsequently adjusted for equity in net income (loss) and cash contributions and distributions. The net income or loss of an unconsolidated investment is allocated to its investors in accordance with the provisions of the operating agreement of the entity. The allocation provisions in these agreements may differ from the ownership interest held by each investor. Differences, if any, between the carrying amount of our investment in the respective joint venture and the Company’s share of the underlying equity of such unconsolidated entity are amortized over the respective lives of the underlying assets as applicable. These items are reported as a single line item in the statements of operations as income or loss from investments in unconsolidated affiliated entities. Long-term investments Long-term investments include investments in equity securities of entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest or significant influence and are accounted for at fair value. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price or impairments (referred to as the “measurement alternative”). In applying the measurement alternative, the Company performs a qualitative assessment on a quarterly basis and recognizes an impairment if there are sufficient indicators that the fair value of the equity investments is less than carrying values. Changes in value are recorded in non-operating income (loss). On December 31, 2024 and 2023, long-term investments consisted of an investment in convertible preferred stock that does not have a readily determinable fair value (see Note 5). Rental properties Rental properties are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Betterments, major renovations and certain costs directly related to the improvement of rental properties are capitalized. Maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 39 years. Tenant improvements paid for by the Company are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases, which approximate the useful lives of the assets. Upon the acquisition of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above-market leases and acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities (such as acquired below-market leases) and allocates the purchase price based on these assessments. The Company assesses fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. The Company’s rental properties are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If the Company’s estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, or market conditions change, the Company’s evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to its consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not record any impairment losses. The Company has land which is not subject to depreciation. Escrow deposits The Company is in the business of pursuing real estate acquisitions and investments that may include various contractual instruments to secure a property, such as an Option Agreement or a Purchase and Sale Agreement. These agreements often include the requirement to make escrow deposits. Escrow deposits include cash deposits made by the Company for the future acquisition of properties or for the option to acquire a property. In most cases, upon closing of the acquisition of a property, the escrow deposit will be applied to the purchase price. In some cases, the Company may discontinue pursuit of an acquisition of a property and therefore terminate an existing agreement, which can cause forfeiture of escrow deposits if those deposits are non-refundable. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company forfeited escrow deposits of $ 53,875 and $ 26,000 , respectively, which is reflected in operating expenses as part of property portfolio business development costs on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. On December 31, 2024 and 2023, escrow deposits amounted to $ 169,875 and $ 177,048 , respectively. F- 10 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 Property and equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. The Company uses a five -year life for office equipment, seven years for furniture and fixtures, and five to ten years for vehicles. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in statements of operations. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of these assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable. Revenue recognition Property Investment Portfolio Revenues Rental income is accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 842 “Leases” and includes base rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease and is reported on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable term of the lease, which includes the effects of rent abatements under the leases. The Company commences rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the leased space or controls the physical use of the leased space and the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that is funded by the Company is treated as a lease incentive receivable and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. Currently, the Company’s leases provide for payments with fixed monthly base rents over the term of the leases or annual percentage increases in base rent over the term of the lease. The leases also require the tenant to remit estimated monthly payments to the Company for property taxes and common area maintenance. These payments are recorded as rental income and the related property tax expense is reflected separately on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Real Estate Services Revenues The Company follows ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), except for revenues from lease contracts within the scope of ASC 842, which are excluded from ASC 606. This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance. ASC 606 requires an entity to 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 in exchange for those goods or services and requires certain additional disclosures. Revenues from advisory services is recognized when the Company performs services pursuant to its agreements with clients and collectability is probable. Brokerage revenues primarily consist of real estate sales commissions and are recognized upon the successful completion of all required services which is likely to occur upon a lease commencement, when escrow closes on the sale of a property, or as otherwise negotiated between the Brokerage and its clients. In accordance with the guidelines established for reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent in ASC Topic 606, the Company records commission revenues and expenses on a gross basis. Of the criteria listed in ASC Topic 606, the Company is the primary obligor in the transaction, does not have inventory risk, performs all or part of the service, has credit risk, and has wide latitude in establishing the price of services rendered and discretion in selection of agents and determination of service specifications. Brokerage revenues that are payable upon payment of rent or other events beyond the Company’s control are recognized upon the occurrence of such events. Contract liabilities Contract liabilities include advisory fees received in advance that are deferred and recognized when the services are complete or over the actual or expected contract term, rental revenue received in advance, and other deferred revenue for when the Company receives consideration from an agreement before certain criteria have been met for revenue to be recognized in conformity with GAAP. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, contract liabilities activities were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2024 Year Ended December 31, 2023 Balance at beginning of period $ 346,176 $ 303,315 Rental payments received in advance 54,836 64,836 Accretion of contract liabilities to revenue ( 82,061 ) ( 19,475 ) Customer refund - ( 2,500 ) Balance at end of period $ 318,951 $ 346,176 F- 11 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 Lease accounting The FASB’s ASC Topic 842, “Leases” sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to previous guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. For leases entered into on or after the effective date, where the Company is the lessor, at the inception of the contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is a sales-type, direct financing or operating lease by reviewing the terms of the lease and determining if the lessee obtains control of the underlying asset implicitly or explicitly. If a change to a pre-existing lease occurs, the Company evaluates if the modification results in a separate new lease or a modified lease. A new lease results when a modification provides additional right of use. The new lease or modified lease is then reassessed to determine its classification based on the modified terms. As disclosed in Note 3, on January 24, 2022 and effective on March 1, 2022, the Chino Valley lease was amended and the monthly rent was increased to $ 87,581 due to additional space of 30,000 square feet being leased to the lessee, increasing the premises to a total of 97,312 square feet of operational space. In connection with this lease amendment, the Company paid $ 500,000 to the tenant as a tenant improvement allowance or lease incentive for investment into the premises, which was capitalized as a lease incentive receivable and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term as a reduction to the lease income. The increase in monthly rent was commensurate with the additional space being leased; therefore, this modification qualifies as a separate contract under ASC 842 which does not require lease classification reassessment. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12-months or less as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent expense on a straight-lines basis over the lease term. The Company records revenues from rental properties for its operating leases where it is the lessor on a straight-line basis. Any revenue on the straight-line basis exceeding the monthly payment amount required on the operating lease is reflected as deferred rent. In prior years, the Company has amended certain leases which resulted in the abatement of rent. Additionally, in connection with operating leases on various properties, the Company abated certain lease payments. These rent abatements and the effect of recording rent on a straight-line basis resulted in aggregate deferred rent as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 of $ 747,504 and $ 371,472 , respectively (see Note 3). Additionally, if the lease provides for tenant improvements, the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that can be taken in the form of cash or a credit against the tenant’s rent) that is funded is treated as a lease incentive receivable and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, where the Company is the lessee, at the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether we have the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments. For leases where the Company is a lessee, primarily for the Company’s administrative office lease, the Company analyzed if it would be required to record a lease liability and a right of use asset on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value upon adoption of ASC 842. Operating lease right of use asset represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liability is recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate of 6 % based on the information available at the adoption date or execution of a lease agreement in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Basic and diluted loss per share Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and as-if converted method. Potentially dilutive common shares and participating securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding if they would have an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net losses. The Company’s preferred stock is considered a participating security since the preferred shares are entitled to dividends equal to common share dividends and accordingly, are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method of computing (loss) income per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines (loss) income per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.

The Company has determined that these reportable segments were strategic business units that offered different products. Currently, these reportable segments are being managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires entities to report incremental information about significant segment expenses included in a segment’s profit or loss measure as well as the title and position of the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The new standard also requires interim disclosures related to reportable segment profit or loss and assets that had previously only been disclosed annually. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective December 31, 2024 on a retrospective basis. As a result, the Company has enhanced its segment disclosures in this report to include the presentation of depreciation and amortization, interest and joint venture expenses by segment and the disclosure of its CODM. The adoption of this ASU only affects the Company’s disclosures with no impact to its financial condition or results of operations F- 13 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 Income tax Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arise from temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as measured by the enacted tax rates, which are expected to be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current, depending upon the classification of the asset or liabilities to which they relate. Deferred tax assets and liabilities not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10, “Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. Certain recognition thresholds must be met before a tax position is recognized in the financial statements. An entity may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions that meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold. The Company does not believe it has any uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 that would require either recognition or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Stock-based compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation – Stock Compensation ”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Recently issued accounting pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity (PBE) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5 % of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires entities to provide more detailed disaggregation of expenses in the income statement, focusing on the nature of the expenses rather than their function. The new disclosures will require entities to separately present expenses for significant line items, including but not limited to, depreciation, amortization, and employee compensation. Entities will also be required to provide a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, provide a definition of what constitutes selling expenses. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

On August 23, 2021, Chino Valley and Broken Arrow entered into the Third Amendment (the “Third Chino Valley Amendment”) to the 2018 Chino Valley Lease, as amended (the “Chino Valley Lease”), effective September 1, 2021.

In addition, under the Tempe Amendment the parties agreed to an Investment by Tenant (as defined above in the subheading Chino Valley ) to the property that is the subject of the Chino Valley Lease and the property that is the subject of the Tempe Lease. The Company’s Significant Tenants have completed the Investment by Tenants to the Facilities totaling in excess of $ 8,000,000 and have satisfied the contractual obligations related to the same. In connection with a promissory note (See Note 8), on July 11, 2022 and reaffirmed on December 7, 2022, the Company entered into a Deed of Trust Agreement that secures the Company’s performance under the promissory note. The Deed of Trust Agreement transfers and assigns to the lender the right to sell the assets of Tempe and rights to rental income in case of default under the promissory note. On November 30, 2022, Zoned Arizona, CJK, and VSM entered into that Second Amendment (the “Tempe Second Amendment”) to the Tempe Lease, as amended.

No other terms of the Tempe Lease were modified. Therefore, the Company’s accounting for the lease remained unchanged subsequent to the Tempe Second Amendment and Assignment. Pursuant to ASC 842-10-25, the lease modification was not accounted for as a separate contract and the Company accounted for the modification as if it were a termination of the existing lease and the creation of a new lease that commenced on the effective date of the modification. Accordingly, the Company recorded the $ 300,000 as a contract liability and will amortize the $ 300,000 Assignment Fees into rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease through April 2040.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 Industry risk Downturns relating to certain industries or business sectors or the financial stability of the Company’s significant tenants may have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s assets and its ability to pay its operating expenses or pay dividends than if the Company had a diversified property portfolio and service offerings. The Company’s total assets are concentrated into a limited number of tenants who were considered significant tenants. To the extent that the Company’s total assets are concentrated in a limited number of tenants that are in the regulated cannabis industry, downturns relating generally to such industry or business sector, or a decline in the financial stability of the Company’s Significant Tenants may result in defaults on all of the Company’s leases within a short time period, which may reduce the Company’s net income and the value of the Company’s common stock and accordingly, limit the Company’s ability to pay our operating expenses or pay dividends to its stockholders. If the Company’s tenants are prohibited from operating or cannot pay their rent, the Company may not have enough working capital to support its operations and the Company would need to consider seeking out new tenants at rental rates per square foot that may be less than its current rate per square foot.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE AND EQUITY SECURITIES Investment in unconsolidated joint venture On December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company held an investment with carrying values of $ 4,923 and $ 4,923 , respectively, in Zoneomics Green, LLC (“Zoneomics Green”), a Delaware limited liability company formed on May 1, 2021 and owned 50 % by the Company. The Company accounts for this investment under the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence but does not exercise financial and operating control over this entity. Investments are reviewed for changes in circumstance or the occurrence of events that suggest an other than temporary event where the Company’s investment may not be recoverable. Currently, the Zoneomics Green team has completed the creation of the foundational design, technology platform, and market positioning for Zoneomics Green to launch in the cannabis industry. However, in order to successfully launch, the technology platform relies upon a required merchant banking component. While Company management knew this risk was a major factor going into the investment, it was not foreseen exactly when an appropriate merchant banking solution would be available given the federal status of regulated cannabis and specifically the federal banking status as it relates to regulated cannabis, even for ancillary services such as Zoneomics Green. The regulatory status related to cannabis banking reform and regulation at the federal level, which the Zoneomics platform relies upon, is uncertain and the Company believes it is appropriate to cause an impairment of the Zoneomics Green investment at this time, while also understanding that Company believes Zoneomics Green may still create material value for the Company in the future. Additionally, the Company is using the Zoneomics Green technology within its own business to generate leads for new projects. The Company has no further financial or investment obligations at this time. Accordingly, on December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $ 45,000 because it was determined that the fair value of its equity method investment in Zoneomics was less than its carrying value. Based on management’s evaluation, it was determined that due to market and regulatory conditions, implementing the Company’s business model was at risk and that the Company’s ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment in Zoneomics was impaired. The following represents summarized financial information derived from the financial statements of the Zoneomics Green Joint Venture and Beakon, LLC (inactive), as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Investment in equity securities On June 24, 2022, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ZP Data Platform 2 LLC, purchased 875 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock of Anami Technology, Inc., a California corporation, for $ 50,000 , or $ 57.14 per share. The Company’s ownership percentage is less than 20 % and it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence as described in ASC 323-10-15-6. This equity instrument does not have a readily determinable fair value. Accordingly, the Company elected to measure this equity security at its cost minus impairment, if any. If the Company identifies observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, the Company shall measure the equity security at fair value as of the date that the observable transaction occurred. If the Company subsequently elects to measure this equity security at fair value, the Company shall measure all identical or similar investments of the same issuer, including future purchases of identical or similar investments of the same issuer, at fair value. The election to measure this equity security at fair value shall be irrevocable. Any resulting gains or losses on the securities for which that election is made shall be recorded in earnings at the time of the election. On December 31, 2024 and 2023, investment in equity securities amounted to $ 50,000 . F- 22 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC.

The PMF Loan Agreement, the PMF Note, any guaranties, and all other related documents executed and delivered concurrently with the PMF Loan Agreement are referred to herein as the “PMF Loan Documents.” Pursuant to the terms of the PMF Loan Agreement, on July 8, 2024, ZP Dysart issued the PMF Note with the maximum principal amount of $ 1,620,000 to PMF (the “Maximum Amount”). Interest accrues at the rate of 12 % per annum, with ZP Dysart paying interest only in arrears, in monthly installment payments, beginning on August 1, 2024 through July 1, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”). ZP Dysart may prepay the PMF Loan in full or in part at any time.

Unless PMF otherwise elects, such acceleration will occur automatically upon the occurrence of any event of default described in PMF Loan Agreement or PMF Deed. After maturity or during the existence of any event of default, or at any time that ZP Dysart is more than 10 days delinquent in the payment of money as required by the Note or the other Loan Documents (whether or not Holder has given any notice of default or any cure period has expired), then all amounts outstanding thereunder will thereafter bear interest at the default rate of 18 % per annum from the date such payment became due until paid, but in no event to exceed the highest rate lawfully collectible under applicable law.

(C) Equity incentive plans On August 9, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and reserved 10,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance thereunder. The 2016 Plan was approved by shareholders on November 21, 2016. The 2016 Plan’s purpose is to encourage ownership in the Company by employees, officers, directors and consultants whose long-term service the Company considers essential to its continued progress and, thereby, encourage recipients to act in the stockholders’ interest and share in the Company’s success. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of awards in the form of options intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, options that do not qualify (non-statutory stock options) and grants of restricted shares of common stock. Restricted shares granted pursuant to the 2016 Plan are amortized to expense over the vesting period. Options vest and expire over a period not to exceed seven years. If any share of common stock underlying a stock option that has been granted ceases to be subject to a stock option, or if any shares of common stock that are subject to any other stock-based award granted are forfeited or terminate, such shares shall again be available for distribution in connection with future grants and awards under the 2016 Plan. As of December 31, 2024, 1,117,500 stock option awards are outstanding and 826,250 options are exercisable under the 2016 Plan. As of December 31, 2023, 1,012,500 stock option awards are outstanding and 585,000 options are exercisable under the 2016 Plan.

The 2014 Plan has been superseded by the 2016 Plan. Accordingly, no additional shares subject to the existing 2014 Plan will be issued and the 1,250,000 shares issuable upon exercise of stock options will be issued pursuant to the 2014 Plan, if exercised. As of December 31, 2024, options to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock are outstanding and 1,250,000 options are exercisable pursuant to the 2014 Plan. As of December 31, 2023, options to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock are outstanding and 1,225,000 options are exercisable pursuant to the 2014 Plan. (D) Stock options On November 25, 2024, the Company granted a stock option to purchase 105,000 of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.49 per share to a board of director pursuant to the 2016 Plan. The grant date of the stock option was November 25, 2024 and the option expires on November 25, 2034. The option shall vest evenly on a quarterly basis over 36 months ( 8,750 options quarterly), beginning immediately. The fair value of this option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: dividend yield of 0 %; expected volatility of 86.0 %; risk-free interest rate of 4.17 %; and an estimated holding period of 6.5 years. The Company valued this stock option at a fair value of $ 35,506 and will record stock-based compensation expense over the vesting period. For the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, in connection with the accretion of stock-based option expense, the Company recorded stock option expense over the vesting period of $ 54,883 and $ 116,643 , respectively. As of December 31, 2024, there were 2,367,500 options outstanding and 2,051,250 options vested and exercisable. As of December 31, 2024, there was $ 80,805 of unvested stock-based compensation expense to be recognized through September 2031. The aggregate intrinsic value on December 31, 2024 was $0 and was calculated based on the difference between the quoted share price on December 31, 2024 of $ 0.54 and the exercise price of the underlying options. On October 1, 2023, the Company cancelled 90,000 non-vested stock options that were forfeited due to the resignation of an executive officer of the Company Stock option activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 are summarized as follows: Number of Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value Balance Outstanding December 31, 2022 2,352,500 $ 0.95 5.46 $ 1,400 Forfeited ( 90,000 ) 1.00 - - Balance Outstanding December 31, 2023 2,262,500 0.94 5.46 Granted 105,000 0.49 9.91 - Balance Outstanding December 31, 2024 2,367,500 $ 0.92 3.63 $ - Exercisable, December 31, 2024 2,051,250 $ 0.92 3.02 $ - Balance non-vested on December 31, 2023 452,500 $ 0.91 7.47 $ - Granted 105,000 0.49 9.91 - Vested during the period ( 241,250 ) 0.82 - - Balance non-vested on December 31, 2024 316,250 $ 0.84 7.54 $ - F- 28 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC.

NOTE 11 – SEGMENT REPORTING The Company operates in two operating and reportable segments which consist of (1) the operations, leasing and management of its leased commercial properties, herein known as the “Property Investment Portfolio” segment, and (2) advisory and brokerage services related to commercial properties, herein known as the “Real Estate Services” segment. The Company has determined that these reportable segments were strategic business units that offer different products. Currently, these reportable segments are being managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. The Company’s Property Investment Portfolio segment generates revenues from its operating leases with its tenants. Rental income is accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 842 “Leases” and includes base rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease and is reported on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable term of the lease, which includes the effects of rent abatements under the leases. The Company’s Real Estate Services segment generates revenues which includes brokerage revenues consisting of real estate sales commissions and assignment fees, and revenues from advisory services for services performed pursuant to its consulting agreements with clients. Corporate and unallocated amounts that do not relate to a reportable segment have been allocated to “Corporate & Unallocated.” F- 31 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. The decisions concerning the allocation of the Company’s resources are made by the CODM with oversight by the Board of Directors. The CODM evaluates the performance of each segment and makes decisions concerning the allocation of resources based upon segment operating profit (loss), generally defined as income or loss before interest expense and income taxes. The CODM assesses segment performance by using each segments’ operating income (loss) and considers budget-to-actual variances on a periodic basis (at least quarterly) when making decisions about operational planning, including whether to invest resources into the segments or into other parts of the Company. Segment assets are reviewed by the Company’s CODM and are disclosed below. The accounting policies of the Property investment portfolio and Real estate services segment are the same as those described in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

In adopting ASC Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842) on January 1, 2019, the Company had elected the ‘package of practical expedients’ which permitted it not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs (see Note 2). In addition, the Company elected not to apply ASC Topic 842 to arrangements with lease terms of 12 months or less. Since the terms of the Company’s operating lease for its office space prior to March 15, 2022 was 12 months or less on the date of adoption, pursuant to ASC 842, the Company determined that the lease met the definition of a short-term lease, and the Company did not recognize the right-of use asset and lease liability arising from this lease. Upon signing of the Assumption of Lease and Consent Agreement on March 15, 2022, the Company analyzed the new lease and determined it is required to record a lease liability and a right of use asset on its consolidated balance sheet, at fair value. In connection with June 3, 2024 Lease, in December 2024, the Company increased its right of use assets and lease liabilities by $ 81,974 and removed all remaining right of use assets and lease liabilities associated with the March 2022 lease, which amounted to $ 90,710 . For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, in connection with its operating leases, the Company recorded rent expense of $ 37,771 and $ 37,039 , respectively, which is included in operating expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The significant assumption used to determine the present value of the lease liability in March 2022 was a discount rate of 6 % which was based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. On December 31, 2024 and 2023, right-of-use asset (“ROU”) is summarized as follows: December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Office lease right of use asset $ 81,974 $ 90,710 Less: accumulated amortization ( 3,719 ) ( 58,497 ) Balance of ROU assets $ 78,255 $ 32,213 On December 31, 2024, future minimum base lease payments due under a non-cancelable operating lease are as follows: Year ending December 31, Amount 2025 $ 50,242 2026 41,520 Total minimum non-cancelable operating lease payments 91,762 Less: discount to fair value ( 13,452 ) Total lease liability on December 31, 2024 $ 78,310 NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES The Company maintains deferred tax assets and liabilities that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax assets on December 31, 2024 and 2023 consist of net operating loss carryforwards. The net deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance because of the uncertainty of the attainment of future taxable income. F- 33 ZONED PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 The items accounting for the difference between income taxes at the effective Federal statutory rate and the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2024 2023 Income tax expense (benefit) at U.S. statutory rate $ 120,531 $ ( 113,454 ) Income tax expense (benefit) – state 37,307 ( 35,117 ) Permanent differences ( 30,847 ) 41,665 Change in valuation allowance ( 126,991 ) 106,906 Total provision for income tax $ - $ - The Company’s approximate net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows: Deferred Tax Asset: December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Net operating loss carryforward $ 559,109 $ 686,100 Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 559,109 686,100 Valuation allowance ( 559,109 ) ( 686,100 ) Net deferred tax asset $ - $ - The net operating loss carryforward was approximately $ 2,033,000 on December 31, 2024. The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred income tax asset as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 because it was not known whether future taxable income will be sufficient to utilize the loss carryforward. Additionally, the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward to offset future taxable income is subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership changes that may occur in the future. The 2017 estimated loss carry forward of approximately $ 1,026,401 expires on December 31, 2037 . Subsequent to 2017, all estimated loss carry forwards may be carried forward indefinitely subject to annual usage limitations. Based on the Company’s analysis to determine the limitation on the utilization of its net operating loss carryforward amounts, in 2018, the deferred tax asset was reduced by any carryforward that cannot be utilized or expires prior to utilization as a result of such limitations, with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance. In 2024, the valuation allowance decreased by $ 126,991 . The potential tax benefit arising from certain loss carryforwards will expire in 2038. The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions or events leading to uncertainty in a tax position. The Company’s 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021 Corporate Income Tax Returns are subject to Internal Revenue Service examination.
