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, 2025, 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, 2025. 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, 2025, 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.
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, 2025 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. The
code of business conduct and ethics is available on our corporate website, www.zonedproperties.com. 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
Three of our four board members are independent.
The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Friedman, Honaman, 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).
58
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, 2025
and 2024 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 the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 because of his employment as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer.

encouraged to attend the annual meetings of our stockholders, as may be applicable.

the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Each of our current directors attended 100% of the aggregate number of the meetings of the Board

McLaren Employment Agreement & Golden
Parachute Agreement
On May 23, 2018, we entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. McLaren (the “2018 Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the 2018 Employment Agreement, the

bonus payable in either cash and/or equity of no less than 2.5% of the Company’s net income for the associated period.
The 2018 Employment Agreement has a term of 10
years. The term and Mr. McLaren’s employment will terminate (a “Termination”) in any of the following circumstances:
(i)
immediately, if Mr. McLaren
dies;
(ii)
immediately, if Mr. McLaren
receives benefits under the long-term disability insurance coverage then
(iii)
provided by the Company
or, if no such insurance is in effect, upon Mr. McLaren’s disability;
(iv)
on the expiration date,
as the same may be extended by the parties by written amendment to the 2018 Employment Agreement prior to the occasion thereof;
(v)
at the option of the Company
for Cause (as hereinafter defined) upon the Company’s provision of written notice to Mr. McLaren of the basis for such Termination;
(vi)
at the option of the Company,
without Cause;
(vii)
by Mr. McLaren at any time
with Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company delivered not later than within
90 days of the existence of the condition therefor; or
(viii)
by Mr. McLaren at any time
without Good Reason, upon not less than three months’ prior written notice to the Company.
In the event of a Termination for any reason
or for no reason whatsoever, or upon the expiration date of the 2018 Employment Agreement, whichever comes first, all rights and obligations
under the 2018 Employment Agreement shall cease (i) as to the Company, except for the Company’s obligations for the payment of
applicable severance benefits thereunder, and for indemnification thereunder, and (ii) as to Mr. McLaren, except for his obligation under
the restrictive covenants in the 2018 Employment Agreement.
The Company and Mr. McLaren also entered into
a Golden Parachute Agreement (the “Golden Parachute Agreement”) on May 23, 2018. No benefits shall be payable under the Golden
Parachute Agreement unless there shall have been a change in control of the Company, as set forth below. For purposes of the Golden Parachute
Agreement, a “change in control of the Company” shall mean a change of control of a nature that would be required to be reported
in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), whether or not the Company is in fact required to comply with that regulation, provided that, without limitation, such a
change in control shall be deemed to have occurred if (A) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)
of the Exchange Act), other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or a corporation
owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of
the Company, is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities;
or (B) during any period of two consecutive years (not including any period prior to the execution of the Golden Parachute Agreement),
individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director (other than a director designated by a person
who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in clauses (A) or (D) of this paragraph) whose election
by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors
then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously
so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority; (C) the Company enters into an agreement, the consummation of which would
result in the occurrence of a change in control of the Company; or (D) the shareholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation
of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company
outstanding immediately prior to it continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities
of the surviving entity) of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation
of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all the Company’s assets.
For purposes of the Golden Parachute Agreement,
“Cause” means termination upon (a) the willful and continued failure to substantially perform duties with the Company after
a written demand for substantial performance is delivered by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the
Board believes that duties have not substantially been performed, or (b) the willful engaging in conduct which is demonstrably and materially
injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise.
62
For purposes of the Golden Parachute Agreement,
“Good Reason” means, without express written consent, the occurrence after a change in control of the Company of any of the
following circumstances unless, such circumstances are fully corrected prior to the date of Termination specified in the notice of Termination:
(a)
a material diminution in
Mr. McLaren’s authority, duties or responsibility from those in effect immediately prior to the change in control of the Company;
(b)
a material diminution in
Mr. McLaren’s base compensation;
(c)
a material change in the
geographic location at which Mr. McLaren performs his duties;
(d)
a material diminution in
the authority, duties, or responsibilities of the supervisor to whom Mr. McLaren is required to report, including a requirement that
McLaren report to a corporate officer or employee instead of reporting directly to the Board;
(e)
a material diminution in
the budget over which Mr. McLaren retains authority;
(f)
a material breach under
any agreement with the Company to continue in effect any bonus to which Mr. McLaren was entitled, or any compensation plan in which
Mr. McLaren participates immediately prior to the change in control of the Company which is material to Mr. McLaren’s total
compensation;
(g)
a material breach under
any agreement with the Company to provide Mr. McLaren benefits substantially similar to those enjoyed by Mr. McLaren under any of
the Company’s life insurance, medical, health and accident, or disability plans in which he was participating at the time of
the change in control of the Company, the failure to continue to provide Mr. McLaren with a Company automobile or allowance in lieu
of it, if Mr. McLaren was provided with such an automobile or allowance in lieu of it at the time of the change of control of the
Company, the taking of any action by the Company which would directly or indirectly materially reduce any of such benefits or deprive
Mr. McLaren of any material fringe benefit enjoyed by Mr. McLaren at the time of the change in control of the Company, or the failure
by the Company to provide him with the number of paid vacation days to which he is entitled on the basis of years of service with
the Company in accordance with the Company’s normal vacation policy in effect at the time of the change in control of the Company;
Following a change in control of the Company,
upon termination of Mr. McLaren’s employment or during a period of disability, Mr. McLaren will be entitled to the following benefits:
(i)
During any period that
Mr. McLaren fails to perform his full-time duties with the Company as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Mr.
McLaren will continue to receive his base salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of any such period, together with all
amounts payable to Mr. McLaren under any compensation plan of the Company during such period, until the Golden Parachute Agreement
is terminated.
(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.

will be entitled to benefits provided below:

In lieu of any further
salary payments to Mr. McLaren for periods subsequent to the date of Termination, the Company will pay as severance pay to Mr. McLaren
a lump sum severance payment (together with the payments provided in clauses (c) and (d) below) equal to five times the sum of Mr.
McLaren’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the circumstance giving rise to the notice of
Termination given in respect of them.

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)

In the event that Mr. McLaren

“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 project team members may receive up to 80% bonus splits of project fees generated
by transactions. Project fees may include Acquisition Fees, Management Fees, Disposition Fees, or Promote Fees. Each transaction may

with such a bonus, in 2025 and 2024, the Company paid Mr. McLaren a bonus of $125,563 and $56,473, respectively.
Effective January 28, 2026, the Board of Directors
of the Company approved an increase in the base salary of Bryan McLaren by 10%, such that Mr. McLaren’s base salary was increased
to $275,000.

days after notice;

(iv)
Mr. Blackwell’s material
failure to fulfil his obligations and fulfill the covenants and agreements in the Blackwell Employment Agreement, after notice and

With respect to the Company, “Cause”
means the Company’s material failure to perform the Company’s obligations and fulfill the covenants and agreements in the
Blackwell Employment Agreement, after notice and failure to cure, as provided in the Blackwell Employment Agreement.
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.

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 terminated, such shares shall again be available for distribution in connection with future grants and awards under
the 2016 Plan. As of December 31, 2025, 1,315,000 stock option awards were outstanding and 1,206,250 options were exercisable under the
2016 Plan. As of December 31, 2025, 8,685,000 shares were available for future issuance under the 2016 Plan.
The Company also continues to maintain its 2014
Equity Compensation Plan (the “2014 Plan”). The 2016 Plan has superseded the 2014 Plan. Accordingly, the Board does not intend
to grant any additional awards under the 2014 Plan. As of December 31, 2025, options to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock were
outstanding and exercisable pursuant to the 2014 Plan, respectively.

ITEM 13. 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
Three of our four board members are independent.
The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Friedman, Honaman, 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, 2025
or 2024 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, 2025 or 2024 because of his employment as our Chairman
of the Board, CEO, CFO, and Treasurer.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

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 2025 and 2024, 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 2025 and 2024, 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 2025 and 2024. As a result, there were no other fees
billed or paid during 2025 and 2024.
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.

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, 2025 and 2024, 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, 2025, 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, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed
in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $2.85 million. Furthermore, in December 2025 and January
2026 the Company entered into an agreement with a third party and with a related party management group, respectively, to sell all its
assets. The closings are contingent on certain events occurring. If the Company sells some or all of its properties, it will have minimal
or no operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s
Plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

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.

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.
Going concern consideration
These consolidated financial statements have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the
normal course of business. As reflected in these consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $ 2,854,415 and had cash
provided by operations of $ 781,476 during the year ended December 31, 2025. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash
of $ 837,767 and stockholders’ equity of $ 3,067,626 . Furthermore, on December 31, 2025 and effective January 1, 2026, the Company
entered into Amended and Restated Absolute Net Lease Agreements with certain tenants (See Note 14 – Subsequent Events). The Amended
and Restated Absolute Net Lease Agreements include, among other provisions, (i) a right of first refusal with a right of first refusal
period of up to 60 days and (ii) a short-term exclusive option that permits the tenant to purchase, on an all-or-none basis, three leased
properties (Chino Valley, Green Valley and Kingman). The Purchase Option originally stated that the Purchase Option may be exercised during
an option period ending March 30, 2026; however, the parties have subsequently agreed that optionee will have until April 10, 2026 to
exercise the Purchase Option, and if exercised, requires a closing no later than June 30, 2026. Additionally, on January 15, 2026, the
Company and its subsidiaries entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to sell substantially all of its properties to a company owned by
management (See Note 14 – Subsequent Events). The closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement is contingent upon the Buyer obtaining
financing. If the Company sells some or all of its properties, it will have minimal or no operations. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this Annual
Report. There can be no assurance that the Company will sell its properties. If the Company sells its properties, the Company’s
cash flow provided by operating activities would decrease substantially and the Company may need to raise capital through debt and/or
equity financings to fund any ongoing operations, may need to curtail its operations, or may decide the liquidate the Company. These consolidated
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.
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, 2025 and 2024 include the collectability of accounts and other receivables, 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 of the lease liability and related right-of-use asset,
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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
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, 2025
and 2024, revenues associated with Significant Tenants amounted to $ 2,393,049 and $ 2,366,645 , respectively, which represents 57.8 % and
62.4 % 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.
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, 2025 and 2024.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
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.

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, 2025 and 2024. 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. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had approximately
$ 328,000 and $ 510,000 , 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. In accordance with ASC 326, “Financial
Instruments - Credit Losses”, 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
Investment in equity method unconsolidated
joint ventures
The Company has equity investments in various
privately held entities. The Company accounts for these investments either under the equity method. 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.
The Company’s equity method 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 equity method unconsolidated joint ventures.
Investment in cost method investees
The Company accounts for its interests in entities
where the Company has virtually no influence over operating and financial policies under the cost method of accounting. In such cases,
the Company’s original investments are recorded at the cost to acquire the interest and any distributions received are recorded
as income. During the year ended December 31, 2025, through its wholly-owned subsidiary ZPRE Holdings, the Company invested $ 84,110 in
ZP Ohio B for a 5 % ownership interest in ZP Ohio B, which is accounted for under the cost method and reflected on the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet under “investment in cost-method investee.” ZP Ohio B plans on developing several projects. This investment
is subject to the Company’s impairment review policy.
Investment in cost method investees also includes
an investment in equity securities of an entity over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest or significant influence.
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”). 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. In applying the measurement alternative, the Company
performed a qualitative impairment assessment on a quarterly basis and shall recognize an impairment loss if there are sufficient indicators
that the fair value of the equity investment is less than carrying values. Changes in value are recorded in non-operating income (loss).
On December 31, 2025, based on its qualitative assessment, the Company impaired its equity investment and recorded an impairment loss
on equity securities of $ 50,000 (see Note 5).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
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. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $ 3,118,716 due to (1) the damage
and demolition of its building located in Chicago, IL, where a vehicle crashed into the building, causing significant structural damage,
and the City of Chicago declared the building unsafe and ordered its demolition, and (2) in an effort to avoid litigation related to the
defaults under the lease, the Company is currently in negotiations to sell the Woodward Property to the New Tenant for approximately $ 600,000
in cash plus the assumption of the notes payable outstanding on the Woodward Property. If the Company sells the Woodward Property for
$ 600,000 , the net carrying value of the Woodward Property of approximately $ 2,700,000 would exceed the $ 600,000 sale price by $ 2,100,000 .
While the Company believes the sale is likely to occur, there is a possibility that the sale will fail to occur, in which case there is
a strong likelihood that the New Tenant will be unable to continue paying rent, causing an ongoing default under the lease. Based on these
conditions, our projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, and market conditions have changed. Accordingly, during the
year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded an impairment loss of $ 2,100,000 .. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did
not record any impairment losses.
The Company has land which is not subject to depreciation.
Escrow deposits and capitalized project costs
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 and capitalized project costs.
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. Capitalized project
costs include cash invested in project-related development and due diligence costs. 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 and write off capitalized project costs. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company forfeited
escrow deposits and wrote off capitalized project costs of $ 300,540 and $ 53,875 , 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, 2025
and 2024, escrow deposits amounted to $ 294,169 and $ 169,875 , respectively.

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.

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 property investment portfolio revenues. 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. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company paid $ 1,000,000 to the tenant of ZP Dysart as a tenant
improvement allowance for investment into the premises. The $ 1,000,000 payment to the tenant was used by the tenant to construct a building
on the land as well as for the buildout of the property. Since ZP Dysart will own the building and related improvements at the end of
the lease, the $ 1,000,000 tenant improvement allowance was capitalized to rental properties and will be depreciated on a straight-line
basis over the useful life of the building and related improvements beginning when the building and related improvements is placed in
service, which occurred in September 2025. 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, 2025 and 2024 of $ 1,084,413 and $ 747,504 , 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.

DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
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 net income (loss) per share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed
by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
each period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (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 income (loss). 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 income (loss) per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines income per share for common stock and any
participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.

Segment reporting
The Company operates in two 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 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 Accounting Standards
Update (“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.
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, 2025 and 2024 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
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update
(“ASU”), 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures in the current year. The ASU requires greater disaggregation of information
about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation and information on income taxes paid. The ASU applies to all entities
subject to income taxes and is intended to help investors better understand an entity’s exposure to potential changes in jurisdictional
tax legislation and assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions. The ASU is effective
for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 203-09 during the year ended
December 31, 2025 using a retrospective approach and is complying with the related disclosure requirements in Note 13, Income Taxes.
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.
Management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.

the Chino Valley Lease would increase commensurate to any and all expanded and operational square footage on the premises by calculating
the fixed rate of $ 0.82 per square foot per month by the new operational square footage. Accordingly, in the Third Chino Valley Amendment,
the parties agreed that, as of September 1, 2021, the rental payment is increased to $ 55,195 per month base rental payment, plus additional
rental payments, as a result of the increase in the square footage to 67,312 square feet of operational space. This lease modification
qualified as a separate contract as the modification grants the tenant additional right of use not included in the original lease, as
amended, and the increase in monthly rent payments is commensurate with the standalone price for the additional square footage being leased.

Lease, as amended. Pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Chino Valley Amendment, the parties acknowledge that an additional 30,000 square
feet have become operational, increasing the premises to a total of 97,312 square feet of operational space. In connection with the Fourth
Chino Valley Amendment, the Company paid $ 500,000 to 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 property investment portfolio revenues. Pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Chino Valley Amendment, effective March
1, 2022, the monthly base rent was increased to $ 87,581 , representing an increase from $ 0.82 per square foot to $ 0.90 per square foot,
for all current and future operational square footage that may be developed as the premises continue to expand.
During 2025, Broken Arrow faced operational challenges
that impaired their ability to meet contractual rent obligations. As of December 31, 2025, Broken Arrow remitted approximately 7 % of the
September to December 2025 rent due. On September 29, 2025, the Company delivered a notice of default to Broken Arrow. The Company and

Tempe Amendment, among other things, the base rent was increased to $ 49,200 per month. Any increase in the rentable area of the leased
premises will result in an increase in all amounts calculated based on the same, including, without limitation, base rent. Pursuant to
the terms of the Tempe Amendment, the parties agreed that if there is any change in laws such that the dispensing, sale or cultivation
of marijuana upon the premises is prohibited or materially and adversely affected as mutually and reasonably determined by Zoned Arizona
and CJK, CJK may terminate the Tempe Lease by delivering written notice to Zoned Arizona, together with a termination payment which shall
be the sum of (i) any unpaid rent and interest, plus (ii) 5 % of the base rent which would have been earned after termination for the balance
of the term.
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

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. Concurrently with the
execution of the Tempe Second Amendment: (i) CJK assigned all its interest in the Tempe Lease to VSM (the “Assignment”), and
(ii) VSM subleased a portion of the Premises (as defined in the Tempe Lease), pursuant to that certain Sublease dated November 30, 2022
between VSM, as sublessor, and CJK, as sublessee.

to execute and deliver to Zoned Arizona that Guaranty of Payment and Performance dated on the same date as the Tempe Amendment, which
Guaranty of Payment and Performance requires GDL to guarantee and be liable for VSM’s compliance with and performance under the
Tempe Lease. The Guaranty of Payment and Performance was entered into on November 30, 2022. If VSM fails to deliver to Zoned Arizona invoices
or other documentation acceptable to Zoned Arizona showing the Capital Commitment has been satisfied in a timely manner, VSM will be in
default under the Tempe Lease. 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. On December 31, 2025 and 2024, contract liability related to this lease modification amounted
to $ 246,890 and $ 264,115 , respectively, which has been included in contract liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

On May 14, 2023, ZP Woodward entered into an Assignment
and Assumption of Lease (“Assignment”) whereby the Woodward Lease was assigned from Rapid Fish 2 LLC (“Old Tenant”)
to Rapid Fish LLC (“New Tenant”). Old Tenant and New Tenant share common ownership. The assignment of the Woodward Lease is
conditioned upon issuance by the City of Pleasant Ridge, Michigan of a final cannabis business license to New Tenant and ZP Woodward’s
receipt of a fully executed Reaffirmation of Guaranty from the guarantors of the Woodward Lease. The Assignment contains other terms as
are customary for a document of this type.
On May 1, 2024, ZP Woodward and Rapid Fish, LLC
(the “Parties”), with individual Guarantors, Thomas Nafso and Ammar Kattoula (the “Guarantors”), entered into
a First Amendment to the Absolute Net Lease Agreement (the “First Amendment”) pertaining to premises located at 23600-23634
Woodward Ave, Pleasant Ridge MI 48069. The Parties also agreed to a fully executed Reaffirmation of Guaranty from the Guarantors.
According to the terms of the First Amendment,
the following changes have been agreed to by the Parties:
Amended Rental Payment Schedule
The First Amendment provides that as long as the
Company’s Conditions, as outlined in this First Amendment, are satisfied including a Renovation Completion Commitment, the Rental
Payment Schedule of the Lease will be amended to the schedule set forth in the First Amendment.
Capital Commitment

of the Capital Commitment as follows: Tenant shall cause a total of at least $ 850,000 to be spent toward capital improvements to the Premises
(the “Commitment Improvements” and/or the “Capital Commitment”). Any such Commitment Improvements shall be made

capital improvements to the Premises and any part thereof, as well as other improvements approved in advance in writing by the Company,
and shall exclude soft costs, permit, design, architectural and engineering fees, and legal fees. Tenant acknowledges that the Capital
Commitment is material to the Company and the Company would not have agreed to enter into this First Amendment but for Tenant’s
obligations in this paragraph. If the Capital Commitment is not completed in the prescribed time period, as evidenced by invoices or similar
documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company, Tenant’s failure shall constitute an Event of Default under the Lease.
Renovation Completion Commitment
The First Amendment provides for the inclusion
of the Renovation Completion Commitment as follows: Tenant shall cause its Capital Commitment at the Premises (the “Renovation Completion
Commitment”) to be completed within three (3) months after the First Amendment Effective Date (the “Renovation Completion

North Lot
The First Amendment also provides that if within
18 months of the date of this First Amendment, Tenant is able to complete all of the following related to 23634 Woodward Ave, Pleasant
Ridge MI 48069 with an APN of 25-27-181-003 (the “North Lot”): (i) obtain authorization from all required jurisdictions (including
the City of Pleasant Ridge) that the use of the North Lot parking spaces is no longer required and releases the Company from all obligations
related to the North Lot under the Declaration of Restrictions and Parking Easement (the “Parking Agreement”), and (ii) confirm
that the Tenant is able to continue to use the lot for purposes of ingress and egress, and (iii) Tenant is able to arrange a deal with
the seller of the North Lot, which is currently under a Land Contract with outstanding installment payments, that (x) provides the Company
with indemnity from Tenant that completely releases the Company of any operational obligations or liabilities related to the North Lot,
(y) provides the Company with indemnity from Tenant that completely release the Company of any financial obligations or liabilities related

days of the Company’s receipt of written confirmation from all appropriate parties that all requirements noted above have been satisfied,
at the Company sole discretion, the Company agrees that the parties shall enter into a Lease Amendment acknowledging the same and modifying
Tenant’s lease base rental rate to be reduced by $ 3,846 for the Lease.
Reaffirmation of Guarantee
In consideration of the First Amendment, the Guarantors
executed and delivered a Reaffirmation of Guaranty (the “Reaffirmation of Guaranty”) effective as of May 3, 2024. Related
to the Guaranty and the Original Guarantors, the Company agreed, that so long as there are no uncured Events of Default and Tenant remains
in good standing under the Lease, then the Original Guarantors shall be released of their guarantees following the original lease term
of 14.5 years. The Company also agreed that, provided the Company has given written approval, at its discretion, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld, then the Original Guarantors may be permitted to transfer the obligations under their Guarantees in the event of a Permitted
Transfer, on to a new Guarantor(s) that are of at least equal or greater credit than the Original Guarantors, to be determined by the
Company in its discretion, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
During the third quarter of 2025, New Tenant faced
operational challenges that impaired its ability to meet contractual rent obligations. Beginning in July 2025, New Tenant remitted approximately
50 % of the rent then due. In August 2025, the Company sent a demand notice to New Tenant to remit full payment of outstanding rent. In
September 2025, New Tenant remitted full payment of all outstanding rent that was previously due and the Company has received all rent
payments due through December 31, 2025. Subsequent to year-end 2025, the Company sent New Tenant at the Woodward Property a written notice
default related to the New Tenant’s failure to i) make timely rental payments and ii) fulfill its obligations related to non-monetary
terms under the Woodward Lease. As of the date of this filing, the Company remains in discussions with New Tenant about curing these events
of default and regarding future operations at the Woodward Property. In an effort to avoid litigation related to the defaults under the
lease, the Company is currently in negotiations to sell the Woodward Property to the New Tenant for approximately $ 600,000 in cash plus
the assumption of the notes payable outstanding on the Woodward Property. If the Company sells the Woodward Property for $ 600,000 , the
net carrying value of the Woodward Property of approximately $ 2,700,000 would exceed the $ 600,000 sale price by $ 2,100,000 . While the
Company believes the sale is likely to occur, there is a possibility that the sale will fail to occur, in which case there is a strong
likelihood that the New Tenant will be unable to continue paying rent, causing an ongoing default under the lease. Based on these conditions,
our projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, and market conditions have changed. Accordingly, during the year ended December
31, 2025, we recorded an impairment loss of $ 2,100,000
Chicago, IL
On January 19, 2024, ZPRE Holdings and Keystone
entered into that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement, dated as of January 19, 2024, by and between Keystone and ZP Holdings (the

Under the Justice Grown Lease, the Company’s
tenant is responsible for constructing a new retail dispensary building on the Ashland Avenue Property. In 2025, the Company was notified
that a vehicle crashed into the building at the Ashland Avenue Property, causing significant structural damage. The City of Chicago declared
the building unsafe and ordered its demolition (See Note 4). As such, the Ashland Avenue Property remains a vacant lot of land. Based
upon the most recent information received by the Company from Justice Grown, the Company believes that the development of the new retail
dispensary building will still be completed, and the tenant will open for business in late 2027; however, challenges related to the ongoing
permitting and development process required through the City of Chicago may continue to cause delays. The Company’s tenant is expected
to continue to pay full rent pursuant to the Justice Grown Lease. If Justice Grown does not construct the new building, the Company may
need to pursue recovery through legal claims. In connection with the damage and demolition of the building, during the year ended December

Surprise, AZ
On January 2, 2024, ZPRE Holdings entered into
a contingent Licensed Cannabis Facility Absolute Net Ground Lease Agreement (the “Sunday Goods Lease”), with a commencement
date contingent upon the satisfaction of various contingencies to the Sunday Goods Lease, by and between ZPRE Holdings, as landlord, and
Sunday Goods, as tenant. Pursuant to the terms of the Sunday Goods Lease, ZPRE Holdings agreed to lease the “Surprise Property”
to Sunday Goods for use as a licensed medical and adult use marijuana retail dispensary in accordance with the laws of Arizona. The Sunday
Goods Lease has a term of 15 years, with four five-year renewal terms. Pursuant to the Sunday Goods Lease, ZPRE Holdings has agreed to
provide a tenant improvement allowance for up to $ 1,000,000 to Sunday Goods to be reimbursed in tranches following completion of tenant’s
work. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company paid $ 1,000,000 to Sunday Goods as a tenant improvement allowance. The $ 1,000,000
payment to the tenant were used by the tenant to construct a building on the land as well as for the buildout of the property. Since ZP
Dysart will own the building and related improvements at the end of the lease, the $ 1,000,000 tenant improvement allowance was capitalized
to rental properties and are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the building and related improvements
beginning in September 2025. In September 2025, Sunday Goods completed the construction of a new retail dispensary building on the Surprise
Property and opened for business. Pursuant to the terms of the Contingent Lease, on February 27, 2024, Sunday Goods executed a guaranty
(the “Guaranty”) in favor of ZP Holdings, guaranteeing the prompt and complete payment and performance of all of Sunday Goods’
obligations to ZPRE Holdings arising under the Contingent Lease. As of July 8, 2024, all contingencies were satisfied and the Contingent
Lease commenced on July 13, 2024. Pursuant to the Sunday Goods Lease, beginning in July 2025, Sunday Goods began paying monthly base
rent of $ 25,000 which shall be paid through June 2026, with an annual increase of 3 % per annum through June 2040.
On March 3, 2025, ZP Dysart entered into a First
Amendment with its tenant related to the Sunday Goods Lease at the Surprise Property. The First Amendment clarifies and defines the process
by which the tenant improvement Allowance for the Tenant Work at the Surprise Property would be completed. Subject to the terms and conditions
of the Sunday Goods Lease, and so long as there is no default ongoing beyond any notice and/or cure period, partial payments of the Allowance
(the “Allowance Payments”) provided by Landlord shall be made to Tenant as follows: (#1) $ 300,000 was paid upon the full
execution of the First Amendment to the Lease; (#2) $ 150,000 was paid on March 28, 2025; (#3) $ 150,000 to be paid on May 1,
2025; and (#4) the remaining $ 400,000 of the Allowance was paid on October 21, 2025 upon completion of the Tenant’s Work on
the Property; provided however, Landlord’s obligation to disburse the final $ 400,000 (Payment #4 of the Allowance Payments)
is expressly conditioned upon Landlord’s receipt of the following “Allowance Deliverables”: (i) Tenant has furnished
to Landlord a copy of a commercially reasonably detailed final cost breakdown for Tenant’s Work and Landlord has inspected the Premises
to confirm that Tenant’s Work has been completed in a good and workmanlike manner according to the Tenant’s Approved Plans;
(ii) Tenant has furnished to Landlord commercially reasonable final affidavits and final lien releases from Tenant’s general contractor,
and if any, all subcontractors and all material suppliers for all labor and materials performed or supplied as part of Tenant’s
Work (whether or not the Allowance is applicable thereto); and (iii) a copy of the certificate of occupancy from the governmental authority
having jurisdiction has been delivered to Landlord. Throughout the project, Tenant shall be required to provide Landlord with ongoing
accounting reflecting a commercially reasonable breakdown of the Tenant’s Work paid for with the Allowance Payments, and also a
current Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification, executed by Tenant.

Asset concentration
The Company’s real estate properties are
leased to the Company’s tenants under absolute-net and triple-net leases that terminate through March 2037 and April 2040, respectively.
The Company monitors the credit of all tenants to stay abreast of any material changes in credit quality. The Company monitors tenant
credit by (1) reviewing financial statements and related metrics and information that are publicly available or that are provided to us
upon request, and (2) monitoring the timeliness of rent collections.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company
had an asset concentration related to its Significant Tenants. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Significant Tenants collectively
leased approximately 47.2 % and 55.4 % of the Company’s total assets, respectively. Additionally, the Company had an asset concentration
related its Surprise, AZ property, which leased approximately 19.4 % of the Company’s total assets as of December 31, 2025.
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.

Property Acquisitions and Impairments
2024
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement Regarding
Purchase and Sale Contract and an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, on January 19, 2024, ZPRE Holdings completed the acquisition of
its Ashland Avenue Property located in Chicago, Illinois for an aggregate cash purchase price of $ 1,585,878 , including (i) $ 1,250,000 ,
representing the Purchase Price, (ii) an assignment fees of $ 185,000 , and (iii) closing costs, commissions, and fees customary to the
acquisition of real estate of $ 150,878 , which includes a $ 65,000 commission expense, a $ 79,634 sponsor fee, and other costs of $ 6,244 .
In 2025, the Company was notified that a vehicle crashed into the building, causing significant structural damage. The City of Chicago
declared the building unsafe and ordered its demolition. As such, the Ashland Avenue Property remains a vacant lot of land. Based upon
the most recent information received by the Company from Justice Grown, the Company believes that the development of the new retail dispensary
building will still be completed, and the tenant will open for business in late 2027; however, challenges related to the ongoing permitting
and development process required through the City of Chicago may continue to cause delays. The Company’s tenant is expected to continue
to pay full rent pursuant to the Justice Grown Lease. If Justice Grown does not construct the new building, the Company may need to pursue
recovery through legal claims. In connection with the damage and demolition of the building, during the year ended December 31, 2025,
the Company recorded an impairment loss of $ 1,018,716 .
On July 8, 2024, ZP Dysart acquired a property
in Surprise AZ (the “Surprise Property”) from NWC Dysart & Bell LLC (“NWC”). Surprise Property is a tract
or parcel of land containing approximately 1.114 acres, together with all improvements, buildings, leases, rights, easements, and appurtenances
pertaining thereto. The Surprise Property was acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $ 1,712,541 , which included (i) $ 1,100,000 , representing
the Purchase Price, (ii) reimbursement to NWC for onsite and offsite improvements of $ 492,022 , and (iii) closing costs, commissions, and
fees customary to the acquisition of real estate of $ 120,519 .

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
2025
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company
paid $ 1,000,000 to Sunday Goods as a tenant improvement allowance. The $ 1,000,000 payment to the tenant was used by the tenant to construct
a building on the land as well as for the buildout of the property. Since ZP Dysart will own the building and related improvements at
the end of the lease, the $ 1,000,000 tenant improvement allowance was capitalized to rental properties and is being depreciated on a straight-line
basis over the useful life of the building and related improvements beginning when the building and related improvements was placed in
service, beginning in September 2025. In September 2025, Sunday Goods completed the construction of a new retail dispensary building on
the Surprise Property and opened for business.
During the third quarter of 2025, New Tenant faced
operational challenges that impaired its ability to meet contractual rent obligations. Beginning in July 2025, New Tenant remitted approximately
50 % of the rent then due. In August 2025, the Company sent a demand notice to New Tenant to remit full payment of outstanding rent. In
September 2025, New Tenant remitted full payment of all outstanding rent that was previously due and has received all rent payments due
through December 31, 2025. Subsequent to year-end 2025, the Company sent New Tenant at the Woodward Property a written notice default
related to the New Tenant’s failure to i) make timely rental payments and ii) fulfill its obligations related to non-monetary terms
under the Woodward Lease. As of the date of this filing, the Company remains in discussions with New Tenant about curing these events
of default and regarding future operations at the Woodward Property. In an effort to avoid litigation related to the defaults under the
lease, the Company is currently in negotiations to sell the Woodward Property to the New Tenant for approximately $ 600,000 in cash plus
the assumption of the notes payable outstanding on the Woodward Property. If the Company sells the Woodward Property for $ 600,000 , the
net carrying value of the Woodward Property of approximately $ 2,700,000 would exceed the $ 600,000 sale price by $ 2,100,000 . While the
Company believes the sale is likely to occur, there is a possibility that the sale will fail to occur, in which case there is a strong
likelihood that the New Tenant will be unable to continue paying rent, causing an ongoing default under the lease. Based on these conditions,
our projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, and market conditions have changed. Accordingly, during the year ended December
31, 2025, we recorded an impairment loss of $ 2,100,000 .
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024,
depreciation of rental properties amounted to $ 358,114 and $ 352,351 , respectively.
NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT IN EQUITY METHOD
UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE, COST METHOD INVESTEE AND EQUITY SECURITIES
Investment in equity method unconsolidated
joint venture
On December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held
an investment with carrying values of $ 0 and $ 4,923 , respectively, in 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. 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, the project has stalled over the past year. In order to successfully
launch, the technology platform needs to rely upon a required merchant banking component, which is has been unable to identify. The Company
does not currently know when an appropriate merchant banking solution will become 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 remains uncertain and the Company believes
it is appropriate to cause an impairment of the Zoneomics Green investment at this time. The Company has no further financial or investment
obligations at this time. 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 Zoneomics Green (inactive), as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and for the years ended
December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Investments in cost method investees
The Company accounts for its interests in entities
where the Company has virtually no influence over operating and financial policies under the cost method of accounting. In such cases,
the Company’s original investments are recorded at the cost to acquire the interest and any distributions received are recorded
as other income. During the year ended December 31, 2025, through its wholly-owned subsidiary ZPRE Holdings, the Company invested $ 84,110
in ZP Ohio B, for a 5 % ownership interest in ZP Ohio B, which is being accounted for under the cost method and reflected on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet under “investment in cost-method investees.” ZP Ohio B plans on developing several projects. This
investment is subject to the Company’s impairment review policy. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company received distribution
income of $ 3,500 .
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. This equity instrument does not have a readily determinable fair value. Accordingly, pursuant to ASC
321-10-35-2, the Company elected to measure this equity security at its cost minus impairment. 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, 2025, based on its qualitative impairment assessment, the Company impaired its equity investment and recorded an impairment
loss on equity securities of $ 50,000 .

East West Bank Swap Note
On July 11, 2022, Zoned Arizona entered into a
Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), dated as of July 11, 2022, by and between Zoned Arizona and East West Bank (the “Bank”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, subject to and upon the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, Zoned
Arizona could request advances under a multiple access loan (“MAL”) during the term of the MAL. On July 11, 2022, in connection
with the Loan Agreement, Zoned Arizona paid loan and other fees of $ 176,472 , and in connection with the First Amendment to the Loan Agreement
discussed below, paid additional fees of $ 8,124 . These loan and other fees aggregating $ 184,596 were reflected as a debt discount and
are being amortized ratably and charged to interest expense over the term of the related debt.
At any time before July 11, 2023, Zoned Arizona
could elect to commence paying principal together with interest on the MAL (the “Early Amortization Election”) in accordance
with the repayment terms set forth in the variable rate note initially evidencing the MAL, executed by Zoned Arizona in favor of the Bank
(the “Note”).
The Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties
and covenants customary for a transaction of this type. Among other things, the Loan Agreement provides as follows: (a) upon the occurrence
of an event of default, the outstanding principal balance of the MAL will not at any time exceed 65 % of the Property’s most recent
appraised value; (b) upon the occurrence of an event of default, Zoned Arizona will maintain a minimum Non-Cannabis Debt Service Coverage
Ratio (as hereinafter defined) of 1.40 to 1.00 ; (c) Zoned Arizona will at all times maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio of
1.50 to 1.0 ; and (d) Zoned Arizona and the Company, collectively, will maintain at all times, liquid assets of at least the sum of all
tenant securities deposits under leases, plus $ 350,000 in operating reserves.
On December 7, 2022, Zoned Arizona and the Bank
entered into a First Amendment to Loan Agreement (the “First Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment, Zoned
Arizona has elected to make its Early Amortization Election (defined in the First Amendment and Loan Agreement), which election requires
Zoned Arizona to commence paying principal and interest on the MAL as set forth in the Amended Note (defined below). Except as provided
in the First Amendment, the terms of the Loan Agreement remain in full force and effect. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement and
First Amendment, on December 7, 2022, Zoned Arizona issued an Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Amended Note”) to
the Bank. The Amended Note has an original principal amount of $ 4,500,000 , a 50 % loan-to-value as determined by the bank-ordered appraisal
completed on the Tempe Property. The Amended Note requires Zoned Arizona to pay monthly principal and interest payments to the Bank at
an interest rate equal to the prime rate plus 0.75 % ( 7.50 % and 8.25 % as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively). The Amended Note
matures 10 years after its effective date and payments are calculated based on a 30 -year amortization schedule. In connection with the
Amended Note, in 2022, Zoned Arizona received gross proceeds of $ 4,500,000 and paid fees of $ 184,596 .
Zoned Arizona may prepay the outstanding principal
under the Swap Note, at any time, subject to the provisions of the Swap Note.
Also as previously disclosed, on July 11, 2022
and pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company executed a Guaranty (the “Guaranty”) in favor of the Bank, pursuant
to which the Company agreed to guarantee all indebtedness of Zoned Arizona to the Bank arising under or in connection with the MAL or
any of the loan documents. On December 7, 2022, the Company executed an Acknowledgement of Amendment and Reaffirmation of Guaranty (the
“Reaffirmation”) in favor of the Bank. The Reaffirmation reaffirms the Guaranty and provides the Company’s consent to
the First Amendment and Swap Note.
On December 7, 2022, Zoned Arizona and the Bank
entered into an Interest Rate Swap Transaction Confirmation (the “Confirmation”). The Confirmation incorporates by reference
the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. as if the parties to the Confirmation
executed such agreement in such form. The Confirmation provides the terms and conditions governing the interest rate swap transaction
afforded to Zoned Arizona, including a fixed interest rate of 7.65 %. The Company recorded the swap at fair value in the consolidated balance
sheets with changes in fair value recorded contemporaneously in earnings. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap to mitigate
variability in interest payments on its variable-rate debt.

declaring all unpaid indebtedness then evidenced by the Note (including any late charges that are then due and payable, any advances thereafter
made from the loan and any accruing costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees which are the obligation of ZP Dysart under the PMF Loan

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

b. Create any new class of stock having preferences over the preferred stock.
c. Repurchase any of our common stock.
d. Merge or consolidate with any other company, except our wholly owned subsidiaries.

On August 9, 2016, the Company’s Board 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, 2025, 1,315,000
stock option awards are outstanding and 1,206,250 options are exercisable under the 2016 Plan As of December 31, 2024, 1,117,500 stock
option awards were outstanding and 826,250 options were exercisable under the 2016 Plan. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, 8,685,000 and
8,882,500 shares, respectively, were available for future issuance under the 2016 Plan.

shares subject to the existing 2014 Plan will be issued and the 1,250,000 shares issued upon exercise of stock options were be issued
pursuant to the 2014 Plan, if exercised. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, options to purchase 250,000 and 1,250,000 shares of common

option to purchase 105,000 of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.49 per share to Board members 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.
On January 21, 2025, the Company granted an aggregate
of 525,000 stock options to purchase 525,000 of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.44 per share to certain Board
members pursuant to the 2016 Plan ( 105,000 stock options each). The grant date of the stock options was January 21, 2025 and the options
expire on January 21, 2035. The options shall vest evenly on a quarterly basis over 36 months ( 8,750 options quarterly), beginning immediately.
The fair value of these options grants was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions: dividend yield of 0 %; historical volatility of 82.1 %; risk-free interest rate of 4.30 %; and a holding period
of 6.5 years based on the simplified method. The Company valued these stock options at a fair value of $ 176,504 and will record stock-based
compensation expense over the vesting period. On April 23, 2025, three of the Company’s five directors submitted their respective
resignations as Board members and accordingly, 262,500 unvested stock options were cancelled.
For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024,
in connection with the accretion of stock-based option expense, the Company recorded stock option expense over the vesting period of $ 88,385
and $ 54,883 , respectively. As of December 31, 2025, there was $ 59,152 of unvested stock-based compensation expense to be recognized through
September 2031. The aggregate intrinsic value on December 31, 2025 was $ 8,400 and was calculated based on the difference between the quoted
share price on December 31, 2025 of $ 0.472 and the exercise price of the underlying options. 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.

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.”
The Company’s 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. 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 segment’s 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
segment and the Real Estate Services segment are the same as those described in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 12 – OPERATING LEASE RIGHT-OF-USE
(“ROU”) ASSETS AND OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY
On March 15, 2022, the Company entered to an Assumption
of Lease and Consent Agreement with a landlord, whereby the landlord consented to the assignment of an office lease, as amended, from
the original tenant to the Company. The lease term began on March 15, 2022 and expired on November 30, 2024 , provided the Company has
the option to extend the lease for an additional five years. On June 3, 2024 the Company extended the lease for an additional 24 months
through November 30, 2026. Effective December 1, 2024, the monthly base rent shall be $ 3,665 per month through November 30, 2025, $ 3,775
from December 1, 2025 through November 30, 2026, $ 3,887 from December 1, 2026 through November 30, 2027, and $ 4,004 from December 1, 2027
through November 30, 2028.
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. Upon signing of the Assumption of
Lease and Consent Agreement on March 15, 2022 and the new lease effective December 1, 2024, the Company analyzed the leases 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, 2025 and 2024, in connection with
its operating leases, the Company recorded rent expense of $ 45,626 and $ 37,771 , 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 December 2024 was a discount rate of 9 % which was based on the Company’s incremental borrowing
rate.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, ROU assets were
summarized as follows:

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, 2025 and 2024 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.
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024,
the components of (loss) income before income taxes were as follows:

The net operating loss carryforward was approximately
$ 2,577,000 as of December 31, 2025. The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred income tax asset as of December
31, 2025 and 2024 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 2025, the valuation allowance increased by $ 727,049 . 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 2025, 2024, 2023 and 2022 Corporate Income Tax Returns are subject
to Internal Revenue Service examination.

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On December 31, 2025, the Company, through its
wholly owned subsidiaries Chino Valley, Green Valley, and Kingman (collectively, the “Landlords”), entered into Amended and
Restated Absolute Net Lease Agreements (the “A&R Leases”) with the respective tenant entities Broken Arrow Herbal Center,
Inc. (Chino Valley and Green Valley) and CJK, Inc. (Kingman) (each, a “Tenant”), each with an effective date of January 1,
2026. Each A&R Lease provides for an initial term of 14 years commencing January 1, 2026 and ending December 31, 2039, unless earlier
terminated pursuant to its terms. The A&R Leases are contingent upon, among other conditions, the consummation of a change of control
transaction involving the Tenant(s), including the transfer of majority ownership and control of the applicable Tenant to A&R Consultants,
LLC (or its designee) and the transfer of the applicable cannabis license to A&R Consultants, LLC (or its designee). Pursuant to the
A&R Leases, A&R Consultants, LLC will provide a guaranty of payment and performance in favor of each Landlord. Base rent under
the A&R Leases varies by property and is set forth in the respective rent schedules (including, for example, monthly base rent of
$ 3,500 for the Green Valley property and $ 4,000 for the Kingman property, and a step-up schedule for the Chino Valley property). The A&R
Leases include, among other provisions, (i) a right of first refusal with a right of first refusal period of up to 60 days and (ii) a
short-term exclusive option that permits the Tenant to purchase, on an all-or-none basis, the three leased properties (Chino Valley, Green
Valley and Kingman) for an aggregate purchase price of $ 9.0 million (the “Purchase Option”). The Purchase Option may be exercised
during an option period ending March 30, 2026; however, the parties have subsequently agreed that optionee will have until April 10, 2026 to exercise the Purchase
Option, and if exercised, requires a closing no later than June 30, 2026. The Purchase Option contemplates
(a) a $ 400,000 non-refundable earnest money deposit to be applied toward the down payment, (b) a $ 4.0 million cash down payment at closing,
and (c) $ 5.0 million of seller financing. The seller financing would bear interest at 7 % per annum over a 36-month term with payments
calculated on a 15 -year amortization schedule and a balloon payment at maturity, and would be secured by loan documentation (including
a loan agreement, promissory note and deeds of trust) against all three properties. The properties would be conveyed on an as-is/where-is
basis without representations or warranties from the applicable landlord/seller. In connection with the anticipated change of control
transaction for the Chino Valley Tenant, on December 30, 2025, the Company, through Chino Valley Properties, LLC, entered into a Consent
of Landlord and Agreement Regarding Lease (the “Consent Agreement”) with Broken Arrow Herbal Center, Inc., AC Management Group,
LLC (the existing guarantor), A&R Consultants, LLC (the new guarantor) and Elevate Holdings, Group, LLC. The Consent Agreement provided,
among other things, that the Landlord’s consent to the sale transaction is conditioned on the payment to Landlord at closing of
(i) $ 389,984 for past due rent, additional rent and late charges and (ii) $ 965,000 as compensation for rent concessions reflected in the
A&R Lease, both of which were received by the Company on March 31, 2026. Upon receipt of such amounts, the Consent Agreement provided for the release of the existing guarantor from liability for
periods after closing and A&R Consultants, LLC executed a new guaranty of the A&R Lease.
Management Buyout Asset Purchase Agreement

(ii) the Purchase Price will be increased by the amount of the cash purchase price paid therefor by the Company or its affiliate, (iii)
the Purchase Price will be decreased by the amount of any cash and/or debt instruments issued by the Company or its affiliate to the seller

Assets are not currently included in the “Assets” for purposes of the MBO APA. In the event that the sale of the Pleasant
Ridge Assets is not consummated prior to the Closing, then the Pleasant Ridge Assets will be deemed included in the “Assets”
and the Purchase Price will be increased by the amount of the appraisal value of the Pleasant Ridge Assets, as determined as set forth
in the MBO APA.
The parties to the MBO APA further acknowledged
and agreed that between January 15, 2026 and the Closing, the Company may sell the real estate assets located at 2144 N. Road 1 East,

is expected to be paid in cash and $ 5,000,000 is expected to be paid via a promissory note payable to the Company (the “CKG Note”).
In the event that the sale of the CKG Properties is not consummated prior to the Closing, then the CKG Properties will be deemed included
in the “Assets” and the Purchase Price will be increased by the amount of the CKG Purchase Price.
The closing of the MBO APA is contingent upon
the Buyer obtaining financing.

Pleasant Ridge Default
On February 13, 2026, the Company sent its tenant
at the Woodward Property a written notice of events of default related to the tenant’s failure to i) make timely rental payments
and ii) fulfill its obligations related to non-monetary terms under the Woodward Lease. As of the date of this filing, the Company remains
in discussions with the tenant about these events of default and regarding future operations at the Woodward Property. In an effort to
avoid litigation related to the defaults under the lease, the Company is currently in negotiations to sell the Woodward Property to the
New Tenant for approximately $ 600,000 in cash plus the assumption of the notes payable outstanding on the Woodward Property. If the Company
sells the Woodward Property for $ 600,000 , the net carrying value of the Woodward Property of approximately $ 2,700,000 would exceed the
$ 600,000 sale price by $ 2,100,000 . While the Company believes the sale is likely to occur, there is a possibility that the sale will fail
to occur, in which case there is a strong likelihood that the New Tenant will be unable to continue paying rent, causing an ongoing default
under the lease. Based on these conditions, our projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, and market conditions have changed.
Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded an impairment loss of $ 2,100,000 .
