Business Combination

On March 13, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), we consummated

the Business Combination of Sunergy Renewables with ESGEN Acquisition Corp.

Prior to the Closing, (i) except as otherwise specified in

the Business Combination Agreement, each issued and outstanding ESGEN Class B ordinary share was converted into one ESGEN Class A ordinary;

and (ii) ESGEN was domesticated into the State of Delaware so as to become a Delaware corporation.

In connection with the Closing, we

changed our name from “ESGEN Acquisition Corporation” to “Zeo Energy Corp.”

Following the Domestication, each then-outstanding ESGEN Class A ordinary

share was converted into one share of Class A common stock, and each then-outstanding ESGEN Public Warrant converted automatically into

a Warrant, exercisable for one share of Zeo Class A Common Stock.

Additionally, each outstanding unit of ESGEN was cancelled and separated

into one share of Class A Common Stock and one-half of one Warrant.

In accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement,

Sunergy caused all holders of any options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase any equity interests of Sunergy or its subsidiaries

or securities (including debt securities) convertible into or exchangeable for, or that otherwise conferred on the holder any right to

acquire, any equity interests of Sunergy or any subsidiary thereof (collectively, the “Sunergy Convertible Interests”) existing

immediately prior to the Closing to either exchange or convert all such holder’s Sunergy Convertible Interests into limited liability

interests of Sunergy (the “Sunergy Company Interests”) in accordance with the governing documents of Sunergy or the Sunergy

Convertible Interests.

At the Closing, ESGEN contributed to OpCo (1) all of its assets (excluding

its interests in OpCo, but including the amount of cash in ESGEN’s Trust Account as of immediately prior to the Closing (after giving

effect to the exercise of redemption rights by ESGEN stockholders)), and (2) a number of newly issued shares of Class V common stock,

which are non-economic, voting shares of Zeo, equal to the number of Seller OpCo Units (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement)

and (y) in exchange, OpCo issued to ESGEN (i) a number of Class A common units of OpCo (the “OpCo Manager Units”) which equaled

the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing and (ii) a number of warrants

to purchase OpCo Manager Units which equaled the number of Warrants issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing (the transactions

described above in this paragraph, the “ESGEN Contribution”).

Immediately following the ESGEN Contribution, (x) the Sellers

contributed to OpCo the Sunergy Company Interests and (y) in exchange therefor, OpCo transferred to the Sellers the Seller OpCo Units

and the Seller Class V Shares.

Prior to the Closing, Sellers transferred 24.167% of their Sunergy

Company Interests (which were thereafter exchanged for Seller OpCo Units and Seller Class V Shares at the Closing, as described above)

pro rata to Sun Managers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sun Managers”), in exchange for Class A Units (as defined

in the Sun Managers limited liability company agreement (the “SM LLCA”)) in Sun Managers.

In connection with such transfer,

Sun Managers executed a joinder to, and became a “Seller” for purposes of, the Business Combination Agreement.

intends to grant Class B Units (as defined in the SM LLCA) in Sun Managers through the Sun Managers, LLC Management Incentive Plan (the

“Management Incentive Plan”) adopted by Sun Managers to certain eligible employees or service providers of OpCo, Sunergy or

their subsidiaries, in the discretion of Timothy Bridgewater, as manager of Sun Managers.

Such Class B Units may be subject to a vesting

schedule, and once such Class B Units become vested, there may be an exchange opportunity through which the grantees may request (subject

to the terms of the Management Incentive Plan and the OpCo A&R LLC Agreement) the exchange of their Class B Units into Seller OpCo

Units (together with an equal number of Seller Class V Shares), which may then be converted into Class A Common Stock (subject to the

terms of the Management Incentive Plan and the OpCo A&R LLC Agreement).

Grants under the Management Incentive Plan will be made after

As of the Closing Date, upon consummation of the Business Combination,

the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the registrant were shares of Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock.

In connection with entering into the Business Combination Agreement,

ESGEN and the Sponsor entered the Sponsor Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor agreed to purchase

an aggregate of 1,000,000 Convertible OpCo Preferred Units convertible into Exchangeable OpCo units (and be issued an equal number of

shares of Class V Common Stock) concurrently with the Closing at a cash purchase price of $10.00 per unit and up to an additional 500,000

Convertible OpCo Preferred Units (together with the concurrent issuance of an equal number of shares of Zeo Class V Common Stock) during

the six months after Closing if called for by Zeo.

Prior to the Closing, ESGEN informed the Sponsor that it wished to call for the additional

500,000 Convertible OpCo Preferred Units at the Closing and, as a result, a total of 1,500,000 Convertible OpCo Preferred Units and an

equal number of shares of Class V Common Stock were issued to Sponsor in return for aggregate consideration of $15,000,000.

Accounting for the Business Combination

Following the Business Combination, we are organized in an “Up-C”

structure, such that Sunergy and the subsidiaries of Sunergy hold and operate substantially all of the assets and businesses of the registrant,

and the registrant is a publicly listed holding company that holds a certain amount of equity interests in OpCo, which holds all of the

equity interests in Sunergy.

The Class A Common Stock and public warrants are traded on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “ZEO”

and “ZEOWW,” respectively.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization

with ESGEN being treated as the acquired company since there was no change in control in accordance with the guidance for common control

transactions in ASC 805-50.

Accordingly, the financial statements of the combined entity will represent a continuation of the financial

statements of Sunergy with the business combination treated as the equivalent of Sunergy issuing stock for the net assets of ESGEN, accompanied

by a recapitalization.

The net assets of ESGEN were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

prior to the Business Combination were those of Sunergy.

Sunergy was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation

of the following facts and circumstances.

Based upon the evaluation of the OpCo A&R LLC Agreement, the Sellers

contributed their interests of Sunergy into OpCo.

OpCo’s members did not have substantive kickout or participating rights and therefore

OpCo is a VIE.

Consideration of OpCo as a VIE was necessary to determine the accounting treatment between ESGEN and Sunergy.

Upon evaluation,

ESGEN Acquisition Corp.

is considered to be the primary beneficiary through its membership interest and manager powers conferred to it

through the Class A Units.

For VIEs, the accounting acquirer is always considered to be the primary beneficiary.

As such, ESGEN will consolidate

OpCo and is considered to the accounting acquirer;

however, further consideration of whether the entities are under common control was

required in order to determine whether there is an ultimate change in control and the acquisition method of accounting is required under

While Sunergy did not control or have common ownership of ESGEN prior

to the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company evaluated the ownership of the new entity subsequent to the consummation

of the transaction to determine if a change in control occurred by evaluating whether Sunergy was under common control prior to and subsequent

to the consummation of the transaction.

If the business combination is between entities under common control, then the acquisition method

of accounting is not applicable and the guidance in ASC 805-50 regarding common control should be applied instead.

EITF Issue 02-5 “Definition

of ‘Common Control’ in Relation to FASB Statement No.

141” indicates that common control would exist if a group of stockholders

holds more than 50 percent of the voting ownership of each entity, and contemporaneous written evidence of an agreement to vote a majority

of the entities’ shares in concert exists.

Prior to the Business Combination, Sunergy was majority owned by five entities (the “ Primary

Sellers ”), who entered into a voting agreement, dated September 7, 2023 (the “Voting Agreement”).

the Voting Agreement is for five years from the date of the Voting Agreement.

The consummation of the Business Combination with ESGEN

occurred within the term of the Voting Agreement.

Prior to the Business Combination and the contributions to Sun Managers

as described above, the Primary Sellers had 98% ownership in Sunergy.

Immediately following the Business Combination, the Sellers now

own 83.8% of the equity of the Company.

The Voting Agreement constitutes contemporaneous written evidence

of an agreement to vote a majority of the Primary Sellers’ shares of the Company in concert.

Accordingly, the Primary Sellers retain

majority control through the voting of their units in conjunction with the Voting Agreement immediately prior to the Business Combination

and their shares following the Business Combination and, therefore, there was no change of control before or after the Business Combination.

This conclusion was appropriate even though there was no relationship or common ownership or control between Sunergy and ESGEN prior

to the Business Combination.

Accordingly, the Business Combination should be accounted for in accordance with the guidance for common

control transactions in ASC 805-50.

Additional factors that were considered include the following:

Since the Business Combination, the Board has been comprised of one individual designated by ESGEN and five individuals designated by Sunergy.

Since the Business Combination, management of the Company has been the existing management at Sunergy immediately prior to the Business Combination.

The individual that was serving as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Sunergy’s management team immediately prior to the Business Combination continues substantially unchanged upon completion of the Business Combination.

For common control transactions that include the transfer of a business,

the reporting entity is required to account for the transaction in accordance with the procedural guidance in ASC 805-50.

the Business Combination will be treated as a reverse recapitalization with ESGEN being treated as the acquired company since there was

no change in control.

Accordingly, the financial statements of the combined entity will represent a continuation of the financial statements

of Sunergy with the business combination treated as the equivalent of Sunergy issuing equity for the net assets of ESGEN, accompanied

by a recapitalization.

Public Company Costs

Following the Business Combination, we have ongoing reporting and other

compliance requirements relating to our Exchange Act registration and Nasdaq listing.

We expect to see an increase in general and administrative,

compared to historical results, to support the legal and accounting requirements of the combined publicly traded company.

We also expect

to incur substantial additional expenses for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees,

internal control compliance, and additional costs for investor relations, accounting, audit, legal and other functions.

The shares of Class A Common Stock issued in connection with the Mergers

are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

The issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the Mergers was registered

under the Securities Act, pursuant to (i) Zeo Energy’s registration statement on Form S-4 (File No.

333-288489) filed with the U.S.

Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 2, 2025 and declared effective on July 11, 2025 (the “Registration

The Registration Statement contains additional information about the Mergers, including information concerning the

interests of directors, executive officers and affiliates of Heliogen and Zeo Energy in the Mergers.

Treatment of Heliogen RSUs

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective

Time, each restricted stock unit (“ RSU ”) relating to shares of Heliogen Common Stock (whether vested or unvested) was

automatically accelerated and fully vested and cancelled and each holder thereof became entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in

respect of each share of Heliogen Common Stock covered by such RSU, without interest and subject to any required tax withholding.

Treatment of Heliogen Options

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding

option to purchase Heliogen Common Stock (the “ Heliogen Options ”) automatically accelerated such that all Heliogen

Options were fully vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

All Heliogen Options had an exercise price per share equal to

or greater than the Per Share Purchase Price and therefore were cancelled without payment of consideration.

There were no Heliogen Options

“in the money.”

Treatment of Heliogen Warrants

As of immediately prior to the Effective Time,

Heliogen had outstanding certain “ Commercial Warrants ” and “ SPAC Warrants ”.

Commercial Warrants

refer to the warrants to purchase shares of Heliogen Common Stock with an exercise price of $0.35 per share of Heliogen Common Stock.

SPAC Warrants refer to certain redeemable warrants exercisable to purchase one share of Heliogen Common Stock at an exercise price of

$402.50 per share.

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each

outstanding Commercial Warrant was accelerated to be fully vested in accordance with its terms.

At the Effective Time, to the extent such

Commercial Warrant was unexercised as of the Effective Time, each outstanding Commercial Warrant was automatically cancelled without any

payment of consideration (including Merger Consideration) therefore, and each outstanding and unexercised SPAC Warrant automatically ceased

to represent a SPAC Warrant and became a right to purchase and receive, in lieu of shares of Heliogen Common Stock, the portion of the

Merger Consideration that such holder would have received if such holder had exercised such SPAC Warrant immediately prior to the Effective

Time, subject to the terms and conditions of that certain warrant agreement.

Key Operating and Financial Metrics and Outlook

We regularly review a number of metrics, including the following key

operating and financial metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare financial

projections and make strategic decisions.

We believe the operating and financial metrics presented below are useful in evaluating our

operating performance, as they are similar to measures by our public competitors and are regularly used by security analysts, institutional

investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are

non-GAAP measures, as they are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as substitutes for

net (loss) income or net (loss) income margin, respectively, calculated in accordance with GAAP.

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures ”

for additional information on non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP

The following table sets forth these metrics for the periods presented:

(In thousands, except percentages)

We regularly review a number of metrics, including

the following key operating and financial metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business,

prepare financial projections and make strategic decisions.

We believe the operating and financial metrics presented below are useful

in evaluating our operating performance, as they are similar to measures by our public competitors and are regularly used by security

analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects.

Adjusted EBITDA and

Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures, as they are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be

considered as substitutes for net (loss) income or net (loss) income margin, respectively, calculated in accordance with GAAP.

See “Non-GAAP

Financial Measures ” for additional information on non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures

to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Key Factors that May Influence Future Results

of Operations

Our financial results of operations may not be

comparable from period to period due to several factors.

Key factors affecting the results of our operations are summarized below.

Expansion of Residential Sales into New Markets .

revenue growth is, in part, dependent on our ability to expand our product offerings and services in the select residential markets where

we operate in Florida, Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois and Ohio.

We primarily generate revenue from our sales, product offerings and

services in the residential housing market.

To continue our growth, we intend to expand our presence in the residential market into additional

We believe that our entry into new markets will continue to facilitate revenue growth and customer diversification.

Expansion of New Products and Services .

In 2025, we continued

our roofing replacements to facilitate our solar installations and to repair rooftops on homes in Florida damaged by severe weather.

plan to expand our roofing business in all markets we enter in the future.

Roofing facilitates a faster processing time for our solar

installations in cases where the customer is in need of a roof replacement prior to installing a solar system.

In addition, to provide

more financing options for our prospective residential solar energy customers, we have programs in place that allow our customers to choose

a leasing option to finance their systems from a third party.

We expect selling systems utilizing third party leases under this and other

similar programs to be a growing portion of our customer finance offerings in the future.

Adding New Customers and Expansion of Sales with Existing Customers .

We intend to increase our in-house sales force and external sales dealers in 2025 in order to target new customers in the Southern U.S.

We provide competitive compensation packages to our in-house sales teams and external sales dealers, which

incentivizes the acquisition of new customers.

We are seeing an increase in the costs of labor and

components as the result of higher inflation rates.

In particular, we are experiencing an increase in raw material costs and supply chain

constraints, and trade tariffs imposed on certain products from China, which may continue to put pressure on our operating margins and

increase our costs.

content to maximize incentive tax credits.

These increases in material and labor costs may continue to put pressure on our operating margins.

We do not have information that allows us to quantify the specific amount of cost increases attributable to inflationary pressures.

Interest rates.

Interest rate increases for both short-term

and long-term debt have increased sharply.

Historically, most of our customers have financed the purchase of their solar systems.

interest rates have resulted in higher monthly costs to customers, which has the effect of slowing the financing-related sales of solar

systems in the areas in which we sell and operate.

We do not have information that allows us to quantify the adverse effects attributable

to increased interest rates.

Interest rates increased

sharply in 2022 but have been relatively stable since.

The majority of homeowners have opted to enter into a lease contract with a third-party

operator as means of financing the installation of a solar system.

The lease contract provides a lower monthly cost to the homeowner

than a conventional loan product in a higher interest rate environment.

We do not have information that allows us to quantify the adverse

effects attributable to increased interest rates.

Managing our Supply Chain .

We rely on contract manufacturers

and suppliers to produce our components.

Our suppliers are generally meeting our materials needs and we are realizing a decrease in pricing

for our solar components compared to the prior year.

Our ability to grow depends, in part, on the ability of our contract manufacturers

and suppliers to provide high quality services and deliver components and finished products on time and at reasonable costs.

we are unable to mitigate the impact of delays and/or price increases in raw materials, electronic components and freight, it could delay

the manufacturing and installation of our systems, which would adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations, including revenue

of these financing fees (and/or dealer fees).

The volume of sales and installations of rooftop solar systems, our primary product, increase

from April to September when a majority of our sales teams are most active in our areas of service.

In addition to sales of solar systems,

“adders” or accessories to a sale may include roofing, energy efficient appliances, upgraded insulation and/or energy storage

All adders consisted of less than 10% of the total revenue, net in the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

Our revenue is affected by changes in the volume and average selling

prices of our solutions and related accessories, supply and demand, sales incentives and fluctuating interest rates that increase or decrease

the monthly payments for customers purchasing systems through third party financing.

Approximately 5% of our sales were paid in cash by

the customer in each of the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

Our revenue growth is dependent on our ability to compete effectively

in the marketplace by remaining cost competitive, developing and introducing new sales teams within existing and new territories, scaling

our installation teams to keep up with demand and maintaining a strong internal operations team to process orders while working with building

departments and utilities to permit and interconnect our customers to the utility grid.

Cost of goods sold decreased in association with

a reduction in revenues.

Revenues declined because of the effect of higher interest rates on the consumer financing rates.

The increased cost of consumer lending

has reduced the advantage provided by financed solar power relative to standard utility costs, which has negatively affected the demand

for our products.

Revenue, net less cost of goods sold may vary from period-to-period

and is primarily affected by our average selling prices, financing or dealer fees, fluctuations in equipment costs and our ability to

effectively and timely deploy our field installation teams to project sites once permitting departments have approved the design and engineering

of systems on customer sites.

has negatively affected the demand for our products.

The second factor affecting revenue is a decreases in sales volume from sales by

our dealer network.

Revenue, net decreased by approximately $8.0

The primary reason for the decrease in revenue was a decrease in deferred revenue recognized in first quarter of 2025 compared

to the first quarter of 2024.

The first quarter of 2024 benefited from systems which were installed at the end of 2023 but for which

revenue was not able to be recognized in 2024.

Therefore, its use can make it difficult to compare our current results with our results from other reporting

periods and with the results of other companies.

Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in conjunction

with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing our business and to, among other things:

(i) monitor and evaluate the performance

of our business operations and financial performance;

(ii) facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of

our business operations;

(iii) facilitate external comparisons of the results of our overall business to the historical operating performance

of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels;

(iv) review and assess the operating performance of our

management team;

(v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments;

plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments.

We believe that the use

of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends,

and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures

to investors.

The non-GAAP financial measures in this Quarterly

Report have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP

and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.

In addition, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

should not be construed as indicators of our operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing

activities, as there may be significant factors or trends that they fail to address.

Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin

We define contribution profit as revenue, net less direct costs of

revenue, commissions expense and depreciation and amortization, and define contribution margin, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio

of contribution profit to revenue, net.

Contribution profit and margin can be used to understand our financial performance and efficiency

and allows investors to evaluate our pricing strategy and compare against competitors.

Our management uses these metrics to make strategic

decisions, identify areas for improvement, set targets for future performance and make informed decisions about how to allocate resources

going forward.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income

(loss) before interest and other income (expenses), net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude merger

and acquisition expenses (“ M&A expenses ”).

We utilize Adjusted EBITDA as an internal performance measure

in the management of our operations because we believe the exclusion of these non-cash and non-recurring charges allow for a more relevant

comparison of our results of operations to other companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed as a substitute for net

(loss) income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently.

Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects

our Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires

us to establish accounting policies and make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the

date of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements include some estimates and assumptions that are based

on informed judgments and estimates of management.

We evaluate our policies and estimates on an on-going basis and discuss the development,

selection and disclosure of critical accounting policies with those charged with governance.

Predicting future events is inherently an

imprecise activity and as such requires the use of judgment.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements may differ based upon different

estimates and assumptions.

We discuss our significant accounting policies in Note 3, Summary of

Significant Accounting Policies, to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our significant accounting policies are subject to

judgments and uncertainties that affect the application of such policies.

We believe these financial statements include the most likely

outcomes with regard to amounts that are based on our judgment and estimates.

Our financial position and results of operations may be

materially different when reported under different conditions or when using different assumptions in the application of such policies.

In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be different from the actual amounts, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect

more current information.

We believe the following accounting policies are critical to the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial

statements due to the estimation process and business judgment involved in their application:

Valuation of Business Combinations

The Company recognizes and measures the assets acquired and liabilities

assumed in a business combination based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.

Any excess or surplus of the purchase

consideration when compared to the fair value of the net tangible assets acquired, if any, is recorded as goodwill or gain from a bargain

The fair value of assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date are often estimated using a combination of approaches, including

the income approach, which requires us to project future cash flows and apply an appropriate discount rate;

and the market approach which

uses market data and adjusts for entity-specific differences.

We use all available information to make these fair value determinations

and engage third-party consultants for valuation assistance.

The estimates used in determining fair values are based on assumptions believed

to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain.

Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from the projected results used

to determine fair value.

Goodwill is recognized and initially measured as any excess of the

acquisition-date consideration transferred in a business combination over the acquisition-date amounts recognized for the net identifiable

assets acquired.

Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually, or

more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not result in an impairment of goodwill.

the Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether or not it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit

is less than its carrying amount.

If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit

is less than its carrying amount, the Company conducts a quantitative goodwill impairment test comparing the fair value of the applicable

reporting unit with its carrying value.

If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the

Company recognizes an impairment loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the amount by which the carrying amount

exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit.

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test at December 31 of each year.

was no goodwill impairment recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

Intangible assets subject to amortization

Intangible assets include tradename, customer lists and non-compete

Amounts are subject to amortization on a straight-line basis over the estimated period of benefit and are subject to annual

impairment consideration.

Costs incurred to renew or extend the term of a recognized intangible asset, such as the acquired tradename,

are capitalized as part of the intangible asset and amortized over its revised estimated useful life.

Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes

in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the intangible assets may not be recoverable.

Conditions that would necessitate an impairment

assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which

an asset is used, or any other significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets

may not be recoverable.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets by comparing their carrying amounts to future net

undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the intangible assets.

If such intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the

impairment recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the intangible assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

The Company determines fair value based on discounted cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s

current business model for the specific intangible asset being valued.

No impairment charges were recorded for the three months ended

March 31, 2025, and 2024.
