We have the internal personnel to successfully complete these projects and our marketing capabilities will deliver lower advertising costs to launch new projects making growth faster to attain. |

Our Target Market in Digital Marketing
As a digital marketing agency, we are often an early adopter of innovative digital marketing tools. Our team keeps our clients ahead of the technology curve instead of chasing it. Our ability to identify audiences in granular ways other tech companies have given up on, positions us well to deliver better results at lower costs. By delivering ads to more targeted audiences, our clients enjoy the benefit of focusing their digital spend on audiences that make sense for their products and services. While the large social media/tech companies are eliminating or limiting access to targeting tools, we continue to add better targeting tools all the time.
As digital marketing continues to evolve, we often find ourselves with an incredibly unique opportunity to evolve our digital marketing tool and services to better serve the needs of our broader market. While the large tech companies and social media firms are removing targeting mechanisms from their platforms, businesses are waking up to the fact that more targeted audiences lower their cost per acquisition and dramatically improve their return on investment (“ROI”). As each day goes by, business owners have learned that the less targeted their campaigns are the more money and time they waste. Reaching the audiences they were easily able to reach just a few years back is made more expensive with the removal of targeting mechanisms. It is all done in the name of political correctness, but it is obvious to most, that their true motivation is to drive ad spend up to drive revenue for themselves.
All of these events put us in a great position to acquire new clients in mass. Our capital raises will in large part be used to grow our sales team in two regions initially and then expand quickly thereafter. The two regions we are starting with are the Tampa and New England markets and will be targeting medium sized clients with revenues between $5 million and $25 million (“Target Market”). The revenue target speaks to both retainer and retention. We know that clients with this type of revenue typically have internal marketing teams that are more suited to understand analytics and can more easily track results and leverage our digital marketing tools and services. When this is the case, these clients stay longer and are more active in running the campaign making it far easier to produce new creative campaigns and get it approved more quickly, a critical component for campaign optimization.
We know from experience in the marketplace that clients in our Target Market spend on average $5,100 per month and this data point is important because it enable us to set our pricing at levels that can sustain projected profitability after accounting for sales expenses and the overhead required to execute a digital marketing campaign for a client. Both Tampa and the New England region have a plethora of companies that fall into our Target Market approach.
We believe our 2025 focus will continue to be achieving sequential revenue growth and adding additional vertically integrated marketing solution capabilities our clients demand. We expect a portion of our capital raise in 2025 will be spent on business development, development and/or acquisition of additional digital marketing capabilities and hiring subject matter expertise to support our infrastructure and public company reporting requirements. Having a well-trained staff in place will not only allow for the expeditious on-boarding of new clients but will also go a long way in retaining clients we bring on. Strong client retention is foundational to long-term success in our business. We have already automated much of what we do so the length of time required to properly train people is drastically reduced.
Tech Incubator
In the digital marketing space, there are numerous opportunities for project completion. Men and women across the country have great ideas but not the resources to finish their projects. Our model is simple, once we identify these opportunities, we will negotiate an equity share position in return for using our resources to complete the buildout. These resources include our website design team, programmers, graphic designers, digital marketers and management.
Due to the nature of what we do, we welcome these projects with both the ability to help complete and market them. We can identify the audience most likely to use them and then aggressively advertise to that audience. Our goal in doing so is to spin them off into their own company and then take our profit when the time is right.

Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying audited financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2024, we incurred a net loss of $615,261 and used cash of $361,875 in operating activities. Although we have been able to generate revenue from contracts with customers since inception, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise capital to implement our business plan and then generate sufficient revenues to generate positive net income and cash flow.
During 2024, our ability to raise additional equity capital was delayed due to circumstances beyond our control when we learned about the SEC’s enforcement proceedings against our former audit firm BF Borgers CPA PC. We dismissed BF Borgers CPA PC as our external audit firm and hired CM3 Advisory who completed the reaudit of our 2022 and 2023 financial statements and reviewed our quarterly financial statements for 2024.
As a reminder there is no guarantee that we will be able to raise sufficient capital or generate a level of revenue to sustain our planned operations or that we will ever be profitable. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we ultimately be unable to continue as a going concern.
Competition
We operate in a highly competitive and fragmented industry. We compete for business and talent with the operating subsidiaries of large global holding companies such as Omnicom Group Inc., Interpublic Group of Companies, Inc., WPP plc, Publicis Groupe SA, Dentsu Inc. and Havas SA, as well as with numerous independent agencies that operate in multiple markets. Our Partner Firms also face competition from consultancies, like Accenture and Deloitte, tech platforms, media companies and other services firms that offer related services. We must compete with all of these other companies to maintain and grow existing client relationships and to obtain new clients and assignments.
We compete at this level by providing clients with innovative marketing solutions that leverage the full power of data, technology, and superior creativity. Specificity also benefits from cooperation among its entrepreneurial Partner Firms, which enables Specificity to service the full range of global clients’ varied marketing needs through custom integrated solutions. Additionally, Specificity’s maintenance of separate, independent operating companies enables Specificity to effectively manage potential conflicts of interest by representing competing clients across its network.
Clients
As discussed above in more detail under the section titled “Our Target Market in Digital Marketing”, our Target Market is medium sized clients with revenues between $5 million and $25 million that exhibit a long term retention with an average of $5,100 per month in digital marketing services or spend. Our general geographic focus currently is in the Tampa Bay and New England areas. We will expand scope of our geographic focus in the future as we develop success in our primary markets. Due to the nature of our business and the relative size of certain contracts, which are entered into in the ordinary course of business, the loss of any single significant customer would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In future periods, we will continue to focus on diversifying our revenue by increasing the number of our customer contracts and seeking out partnerships that will allow us to increase our customer reach beyond our limited reach.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property rights are important to our business. We believe we will come to rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, service mark, trade secret and other rights in the United States and other jurisdictions, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary technology, processes and other intellectual property. We will protect our intellectual property rights in a number of ways including entering into confidentiality and other written agreements with our employees, customers, consultants and partners in an attempt to control access to and distribution of our documentation and other proprietary technology and other information. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, third parties may, in an unauthorized manner, attempt to use, copy or otherwise obtain and market or distribute our intellectual property rights or technology.
5
U.S. patent filings are intended to provide the holder with a right to exclude others from making, using, selling or importing in the United States the inventions covered by the claims of granted patents. Our patents, including our pending patents, if granted, may be contested, circumvented or invalidated. Moreover, the rights that may be granted in those issued and pending patents may not provide us with proprietary protection or competitive advantages, and we may not be able to prevent third parties from infringing those patents. Therefore, the exact benefits of our issued patents and, if issued, our pending patents and the other steps that we have taken to protect our intellectual property cannot be predicted with certainty.
Seasonality
Our business is not seasonal. However, our revenues and operating results may vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter, due to revenues earned on contracts due to one or more of the following reasons:
· | Onboarding of clients and launching their specific digital marketing services |
· | Large one-time digital marketing campaigns requested by our clients |
· | Seasonality of a client’s business which impacts digital marketing services and spend requirements |
· | Product or service launches or discontinuation by a client |
· | Change in control of ownership events that may affect client spend and timing |
· | Directed increase or decreases in marketing campaigns as directed by a client |
· | The commencement and completion of contracts during any particular quarter. |
Because a portion of our expenses, such as personnel and platform costs, are fixed in the short term, successful contract performance and variation in the volume of activity as well as in the number of contracts commenced or completed during any quarter may cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter.
Employees
As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately 8 full-time employees. We contract with independent consultants and employ temporary or full-time employees as needed. Potential employees possessing the unique qualifications required are readily available for both part-time and full-time employment. The primary method of soliciting personnel is through recruiting resources directly utilizing all known sources including electronic databases, public forums, and personal networks of friends and former co-workers.
We believe that our future success will depend in part on our continued ability to offer competitive market compensation packages to attract and retain highly skilled, highly motivated and disciplined managerial, technical, sales and support personnel. In addition, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements are in place with many of our clients, employees and consultants and such agreements are included our policies and procedures. None of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.
Corporate Information
We incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 25, 2020, as Specificity, Inc. On September 13, 2022, we filed Form S-1 with the SEC, which was deemed effective on August 2, 2023.

Our principal executive offices are located at 8429 Lorraine Rd., Suite 377, Lakewood Ranch, FL 34202. Our telephone number is (813) 364-4744. Our internet address www.specificityinc.com. Information on our website is not incorporated into this Form 10-K. We make available free of charge through our website our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC at http://www.sec.gov.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Generally, as a smaller reporting and emerging growth company, we are permitted to omit risk factors. However, we believe the following Risk Factors are material to our business. These do not encompass all risks related to our operations.
You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this annual report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated herein that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, you may lose all or part of your investment. In addition to the other information provided in this prospectus, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business before purchasing any of our common stock.
Risks Related to Our Financial Condition
Since our inception, we have been insolvent and have required debt and equity financing to maintain operations.
Since our inception, we have failed to create cashflows from revenues sufficient to cover our costs and this makes it difficult for us to evaluate our future business prospects with any degree of certainty. We expect we will continue to rely on debt and equity financing. Equity financing, in particular, has created a dilutive effect on our common stock, which has hampered our ability to attract reasonable financing terms. For the foreseeable future, we will continue to rely upon debt and equity financing to maintain operation of our company.
We have generated minimal revenues from operations, which makes it difficult for us to evaluate our future business prospects and make decisions based on those estimates of our future performance.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, we generated insufficient revenues to cover our operating expenses. As a consequence, it is difficult, if not impossible, to forecast our future results based upon our historical data. Our projections are based upon our best estimates on future growth. Because of the related uncertainties, we may be hindered in our ability to anticipate and timely adapt to increases or decreases in our digital marketing revenues, cost of revenues, or general and administrative expenses. If we make poor budgetary decisions as a result of unreliable data, we may never become profitable or incur losses, which may result in a decline in our stock price.
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and if we are unable to generate significant revenue or secure additional financing, we may be unable to implement our business plan and grow our business.
We are an emerging growth company with growing revenues; however, we are not yet at scale. We are in the process of ramping up our sales capabilities and future developing and refining our digital marketing services. We have an accumulated deficit and have incurred operating losses since our inception and expect losses to continue next fiscal year. Our independent registered public accounting firm has indicated in their report that these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from the issuance date of this report. The continuation of our business as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from our stockholders.
7
There is uncertainty regarding our ability to grow our business to a greater extent than we can with our existing financial resources, also described above, without additional financing. We entered into a 24-month Strata Purchase Agreement with a private investor who committed to purchase up to $5,000,000 of our registered common stock at a discounted price to market. We intend to leverage this Strata Purchase Agreement to raise equity necessary to execute its full business plan upon completion of our 2024 annual audit. This source of financing is a short-term solution to our financing and growth needs. We have no other firm agreements, commitments, or understandings to secure additional financing at this time. Our long-term future growth and success is dependent upon our ability to continue selling our digital products and services, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing on favorable terms. There is no assurance that we will be able to continue selling our digital products and services, generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of common stock or borrow additional funds. Our inability to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow our business to a greater extent than we can with our existing financial resources, also described above.
Expenses required to operate as a public company will reduce funds available to implement our business plan and could negatively affect our stock price and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.
Operating as a public company is more expensive than operating as a private company. Public companies have additional administrative and transactional costs to comply with securities laws and periodic compliance filing requirements, which require us to engage third party firms that provide legal, accounting, tax planning and compliance, investor relations, stock transfer agent fees (which are often transactional and expensive) and other professionals that could be costlier than planned if we enter into more complex business transactions. We may reach a point where we may be required to hire an internal team of similar experts to comply with additional SEC reporting requirements as we grow and scale our business. We anticipate that the cost of SEC reporting will be approximately $150,000 annually to meet our regulatory compliance filing requirements. We expect annual costs to rise as many of these third party firms are experiencing staffing cost increases and are passing those costs onto their clients.
Our failure to comply with reporting requirements and other provisions of securities laws could negatively affect our stock price and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. If we fail to meet these requirements, we will be unable to secure a qualification for quotation of our securities on the OTCQB, or if we have secured a qualification, we may lose the qualification and our securities would no longer trade on the OTCQB. Further, if we fail to meet these obligations and consequently fail to satisfy our SEC reporting obligations, investors will then own stock in a company that does not provide the disclosure available in quarterly, annual reports and other required SEC reports that would be otherwise publicly available leading to increased difficulty in selling their stock due to our becoming a non-reporting issuer.
Risks Related to Our Securities
Our controlling stockholder has significant influence over the Company.
As of December 31, 2024, Jason Wood, our Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, owns approximately 48% of the outstanding common stock. Additionally, Mr. Wood also holds 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred which have voting rights, at all times, equal to 80% of all voting rights. As a result, Jason Wood possesses significant economic influence over our affairs. His stock ownership and position as a director of the company may have the effect of delaying or preventing a future change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combinations or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the company, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Minority shareholders will be unable to affect the outcome of stockholder voting as long as Jason Wood retains a controlling interest.

OTCB Market May Delist Our Securities From Trading On Its Exchange, Which Could Limit Investors’ Ability To Make Transactions In Our Securities And Subject Us To Additional Trading Restrictions.
Our common stock is listed on the OTCQB. We cannot assure you that our securities will be, or will continue to be, listed on the OTCQB or any other stock exchange in the future. In order to be eligible to continue listing our common stock on the OTCQB our common stock must have a minimum bid price of $0.01, maintain a minimum freely traded float of at least 10% of our total issued and outstanding common stock, maintain at least 50 beneficial shareholders each holding a minimum of 100 shares, not be in bankruptcy, be in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the company is organized or conducts business, and file all required applications and fees with the OTCQB. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet those initial listing requirements at that time. Our inability to maintain a listing on the OTCQB could significantly limit an individual investors ability to buy or sell our securities, if at all.
We may enter into arrangements whereby we may issue our securities to investors at a price which is less than the prevailing market price of our publicly traded common stock.
In order to establish a more reliable source of equity capital, we may issue shares to investors in private placement transactions (so-called PIPE transactions) at a discount to market ranging from 10-20% and include other terms and inducements including issuing stock warrants. In the event we execute a PIPE transaction, our shareholders may experience both price depreciation and share dilution after the transaction closes.
Our independent auditors have issued an audit opinion for Specificity, Inc. that includes a statement describing our going concern status. Our financial status creates doubt whether we will continue as a going concern.
As described in Note 2 of our accompanying audited financial statements, our auditors have issued a going concern opinion regarding the Company. This means there is substantial doubt we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty regarding our ability to continue in business. As such, we may have to cease operations and investors could lose part or all of their investment in our company.
Risks Related to Our Business
We have a limited operating history and have losses that we expect to continue into the future until we are able to scale our business and generate positive cash flow and a net profit.
There is no assurance our future operations will result in profitable revenues. If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably, we may suspend or cease operations. As reflected in the financial statements, the Company has $1,559,296 in assets, and an accumulated deficit and working capital deficit of $8,081,892 and $1,171,822, respectively, as of December 31, 2024, and incurred a net loss and cash used in operations of $615,261 and $361,875, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Based upon our current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will be investing in sales resources to grow our Target Market base that may outpace our revenues in the short run.
We do not have any additional source of funding for our business plans and may be unable to find any such funding if and when needed, resulting in the failure of our business.
In 2023, we entered into a 24-month Strata Purchase Agreement (“Strata Agreement”) with a private investor who committed to purchase up to $5,000,000 of our registered common stock. We are presently unable to utilize this agreement due to our non-compliance with periodic financial reporting compliance which we anticipate will be remediated upon filing of our Form 10-K and first quarter 2025 quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We intend to leverage this Strata Agreement to raise equity necessary to execute our full business plan. Even with the Strata Agreement, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues in the future. In the event the Company is unable to generate sufficient revenues, it may be required to seek additional funding. Such funding may not be available or may not be available on terms that are beneficial and/or acceptable to the Company. In the event the Company cannot generate sufficient revenues and/or secure additional financing, the Company may be forced to cease operations and investors will likely lose some or all of their investment in the Company. Other than a short term bridge loan and shares offered by previous Offerings as reflected in our regulatory filings, no other source of capital has been identified or sought. However, our CEO and our directors have indicated a willingness to loan funds as needed during the start-up phase of our operations to cover any shortfall in funds required to pay for offering costs, filing fees, and correspondence with our shareholders. However, our directors have not guaranteed any loans to cover a shortfall in funds should our Offerings fail. As a result, we do not have an alternate source of funds should we fail to complete previous Offerings. If we do find an alternative source of capital, the terms and conditions of acquiring such capital may result in dilution and the resultant lessening of value of the shares of stockholders.

If we are not successful in raising sufficient capital to execute our business plan, we will be faced with the following options:
1. | abandon our business plans, cease operations and go out of business; |
2. | continue to seek alternative and acceptable sources of capital; or |
3. | bring in additional capital that may result in a change of control and/or significant shareholder dilution. |
In the event any of the above circumstances occur, you could lose a substantial part or all of your investment. In addition, there can be no guarantee that the total proceeds raised in previous Offerings will be sufficient, as we have projected, to fund our business plans or that we will be profitable. As a result, you could lose any investment you make in our shares.
We operate in an intensely competitive business environment where our competitors are working on incorporating AI into their business models.
We operate in a highly competitive environment in an industry characterized by numerous advertising and marketing agencies of varying sizes, with no single advertising and marketing agency or group of agencies having a dominant position in the marketplace. Our competitors may be larger, more diversified, better funded, and have access to more advanced technology, including AI. Competitive factors include creative reputation, management, personal relationships, quality and reliability of service and expertise in particular niche areas of the marketplace. Our ability to be competitive and successful as a digital marketing company requires investment in our people, efficient use of technology capabilities (including AI solutions) and results for our clients in the form of new customers and/or expanded business relationships.
Recent changes in technology have been closing the gap between small and large competitors in our marketplace. Many of our competitors are actively experimenting with incorporating AI into their marketing services and products, which may allow them to innovate better and more quickly, which could allow them to compete more effectively on quality and price, causing us to lose business and negatively affect our ability to fully implement our business plan. AI may lower barriers to entry in our industry, and we may be unable to effectively compete with the products or services offered by new competitors. AI-related changes to the products and services on offer may affect our customers’ expectations, requirements, or tastes in ways we cannot adequately anticipate or adapt to, causing our business to lose sales, market share, or the ability to operate profitably and sustainably.
According to the April 2025 McKinsey Quarterly report, AI infrastructure spending is expected to exceed $7 trillion by 2030. AI agents and other solutions are continuing to improve as companies gather large learning data sets to train their AI models, but those models are not yet economical. As global AI infrastructure development stabilizes and if AI programming becomes more economical to implement on a wider scale (other than just large well capitalized companies), it could drive more competition within our industry.
We have invested in acquiring digital technology marketing databases, technology stacks and other tools, including alliances with other vertical providers, to build out what we believe will be the right market offering for digital marketing services for our Target Market. If our target market demands an AI generative solution then we may need to pivot a portion of our capital investment to include AI related solutions, provided the cost offering an AI solution is net accretive to our bottom line.
10
To the extent that we fail to efficiently integrate AI and other emerging technologies into our marketing solutions, maintain existing clients or attract new clients, our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows may be affected in a materially adverse manner.
We possess minimal capital, which may severely restrict our ability to develop our services. If we are unable to raise additional capital, our business will fail.
We possess minimal capital and must limit the amount of marketing we can perform with respect to our services. We feel we require annually a minimum of $1,000,000 in working capital through sales and/or capital raise activities to provide sufficient capital to fully develop our business plan. To increase our revenues over time, we need to expand services with our existing clients or close on new business from new clients. Our ability to generate new client business is heavily tied to the reputation and reach of our employees and our ability to support their creative digital marketing services with our existing digital technologies. To the extent Specificity cannot generate new business from new and existing clients due to these limitations, Specificity’s ability to grow its business and to increase its revenues will be limited.
Specificity’s business could be adversely affected if it loses or fails to attract or retain key executives or employees.
Our business requires us to obtain staff with expertise in brand marketing, creative design and development, digital marketing tools and analytics, B2C media campaigns, technology development, account managers, and other subject matter specialists. Most importantly, our employees’ skills and relationships with our clients, are among our most important assets. An important aspect of our market competitiveness is our ability to retain key employees and management personnel. Compensation for these key employees is an essential factor in attracting and retaining them, and we may not offer a level of compensation sufficient to attract and retain these key employees. As is typically the case with an emerging growth company, we offer a compensation package that includes other forms of compensation including stock. If we fail to hire and retain a sufficient number of key employees, we may not be able to compete effectively. Management succession at our operating units is very important to the ongoing results because as in any service business, the success of a particular agency is dependent upon the leadership of key executives and management and its relationships with its clients. If key executives were to leave our company, the relationships that Specificity has with its clients could be adversely affected.
Specificity is exposed to the risk of client defaults.
Despite our advanced billing approach we are still exposed to the risk of significant uncollectible receivables from our clients in the event we provide services and fail to follow-up on collecting for services. The risk of material loss could significantly increase in periods of severe economic downturn. Such a loss could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position. We often incur expenses on behalf of our clients in order to secure a variety of media time and space. While we take precautions against default on payment for these services (such as billing in advance for services, setting an advertising spend budget, credit analysis, advance billing of clients, and in some cases acting as an agent for a disclosed principal) and have historically had a very low incidence of default.
Specificity is subject to regulations and litigation risk that could restrict our activities or negatively impact our revenues.
Advertising and marketing communications businesses are subject to government regulation, both domestic and foreign. There has been an increasing trend in the United States and in Europe for advertisers to resort to litigation and self-regulatory bodies to challenge comparative advertising on the grounds that the advertising is false and deceptive. Moreover, there has recently been an expansion of specific rules, prohibitions, media restrictions, labeling disclosures, and warning requirements with respect to advertising for certain products. Proposals have been made to ban the advertising of specific products and to impose taxes on or deny deductions for advertising which, if successful, may have an adverse effect on advertising expenditures and consequently, on our revenues.
11
In addition, laws and regulations related to consumer privacy, use of personal information and digital tracking technologies have been proposed or enacted in the United States and certain international markets (including the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, or “GDPR,” the proposed European Union “ePrivacy Regulation” and the recently enacted California Consumer Privacy Act, or “CCPA”). We face increasing costs of compliance in an uncertain regulatory environment and any failure to comply with these legal requirements could result in regulatory penalties or other legal action. Furthermore, these laws and regulations may impact the efficacy and profitability of certain digital marketing and analytics services we provide to clients, making it difficult to achieve our clients’ goals. These and other related factors could affect our business and reduce demand for certain of our services, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position.
Compliance with data privacy laws requires ongoing investment in systems, policies and personnel and will continue to impact our business in the future by increasing legal, operational and compliance costs. While we have taken steps to comply with data privacy laws, we cannot guarantee that our efforts will meet the evolving standards imposed by data protection authorities. In the event that we are found to have violated data privacy laws, we may be subject to additional potential private consumer, business partner or securities litigation, regulatory inquiries, governmental investigations and proceedings and we may incur damage to our reputation. Any such developments may subject us to material fines and other monetary penalties and damages, divert management’s time and attention, and lead to enhanced regulatory oversight all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
We rely extensively on information technology systems and cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect us.
We rely on information technologies and infrastructure to manage our business, including digital storage of client marketing and advertising information and developing new business opportunities. Increased cybersecurity threats and attacks, which are becoming more sophisticated, pose a risk to our systems and networks. Security breaches, improper use of our systems and unauthorized access to our data and information by employees and others may pose a risk that sensitive data may be exposed to unauthorized persons or to the public. We also have access to sensitive or personal data or information that is subject to privacy laws and regulations. Our systems and processes to protect against, detect, prevent, respond to and mitigate cybersecurity incidents and our organizational training for employees to develop an understanding of cybersecurity risks and threats may be unable to prevent material security breaches, theft, modification or loss of data, employee malfeasance and additional known and unknown threats. In addition, we use third-party service providers, including cloud providers, to store, transmit and process data. Any breakdown or breach in our systems or data-protection policies, or those of our third-party service providers, could adversely affect our reputation or business.
We are dependent upon our current officers.
We currently are managed by three key officers, and we are entirely dependent upon them in order to conduct our operations. If they should resign or die, there will be no one to run Specificity, and the company has no Key Man insurance. If our current officers are no longer able to serve as such and we are unable to find another person to replace them, it will have a negative effect on our ability to continue active business operations and could result in investors losing some or all of their investment in us.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which, if not remediated, could result in material misstatements in our financial statements.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As of December 31, 2024, we have identified three continuing material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that pertain to:
12
(i) we had not established adequate financial reporting monitoring activities to mitigate the risk of management override, specifically because there are few employees and only one officers with management functions and therefore there is lack of segregation of duties;
(ii) we had inadequate document retention policies and procedures to ensure that all financial transactions were maintained and easily accessible; and
(iii) we had inadequate policies and procedures related to internal control over financial reporting and as such relied heavily on outside consultants and advisors to assist us in the preparation of the annual and quarterly financial statements and partners with us to ensure compliance with US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
In July of 2025 we engaged an outside consultant to provide fractional Chief Financial Officer and SEC Reporting Compliance services. Our outside consultant is developing a remediation plan for 2025 and 2026 which includes (i) building an information repository for all financial transactions, (ii) developing and implementing monthly financial accounting and reporting procedures, (iii) financial management coaching and development; and (iv) collaborating with senior management and operational teams to put in place critical policies and procedures to address our lack of segregation of duties as practical given the staff size. We cannot assure you our remediation efforts will occur within a specific timeframe as we are continuing to develop a formal set of plans.
These identified material weaknesses will not be remediated until all necessary internal controls have been designed, implemented, tested and determined to be operating effectively. In addition, we may need to take additional measures to address the material weakness or modify the planned remediation steps, and we cannot be certain that the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls will be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that our internal controls are effective or to ensure that the identified material weakness- will not result in a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements. Moreover, we cannot assure you that we will not identify additional material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting in the future.
Until we remediate the material weakness, our ability to record, process and report financial information accurately, and to prepare financial statements within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC, could be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common units, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Form 10-K, including “Risk Factors,” and the Financial Statements. The various sections of this discussion contain a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See “Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results may differ materially. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
As used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” except where the context otherwise requires, the term “we,” “us,” “our,” or “the Company,” refers to the business of Specificity, Inc.
Executive Overview
We are a full service digital marketing firm that delivers marketing solutions in real-time to help our clients identify potential customers who are actively in the buying cycle. Our clients can select their digital market service and level that best suits their needs. We are primarily focused on attracting prospective clients that have revenues ranging from $5 million to $25 million with a focus on Business to Business (“B2B”) and Business to Consumer (“B2C”) consumer markets and at least $5,100 in monthly marketing spend. Prospective clients in our target market often have their own marketing teams that can more effectively leverage our flagship Specificity digital marketing services. We have additional digital marketing solutions for small business and do-it-yourself marketing professionals. Our underlying technology solution utilizes BiToS and Mobile Advertising Identifiers (MAIDs) to build audiences, effectively eliminating bot traffic and ad waste and produces real-time messaging opportunities to reach target audiences more efficiently than broad based market messaging platforms. We also implements intuitive ad sequencing, audience ID technology, Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) integration, saturation modeling, conversion funneling, Customer Relationship Management (“CRM”) integration, traffic resolution, and comprehensive analytics reporting.
We primarily generate revenue through recurring fixed monthly digital services agreements for the vast majority of our clients. We bill for our services at the beginning of each month and our services are completed at the end of the month. We also generate revenue through marketing campaigns for product or service launches and other non-recurring events.
15
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 of our audited financial statements. Those material accounting estimates that we believe are the most critical to an investor’s understanding of our financial results and condition are discussed immediately below and are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We do not have significant accounts receivable as our billing practice requires that our clients provide an upfront form of payment prior to commencement of services each billing period. Accordingly, we do not expect to have write-offs or adjustments to accounts receivable which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the portion which is deemed uncollectible is already taken into account when the revenue is recognized. Accounts receivable is recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, if needed. We consider any significant changes to the financial condition of our clients and any other external market factors that could indicate that our client may have difficulty meeting their financial obligations. We do not expect to have write-offs or adjustments to accounts receivable which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the portion which is deemed uncollectible is already taken into account when the revenue is recognized.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification No. 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Our contracts with clients are fee-for-service agreement to deliver digital marketing services. A significant number of our clients are billed a fixed monthly retainer for our services and such retainer is automatically renewed on a monthly basis on the first of the month unless cancelled by the client in accordance with the terms of the service agreement. Revenue is recorded as services are performed which typically all occurs within a calendar month. If any customer pays for digital marketing services in advance for a planned campaign or non-recurring event, those payments are initially recorded as deferred revenue and then recognized as revenue when digital marketing services are delivered. Our contracts with customers do not typically have performance conditions, milestones or other conditions that would prevent revenue from being earned in the month our services are delivered.
Convertible Debt
We may enter into negotiated short term convertible debt agreement to provide bridge capital in between equity raises. Our convertible debt agreements include an original issue discount, freestanding stock awards or warrants as additional consideration, and a common stock conversation feature that may be exercised by the noteholder that is either at or out of the money. We evaluate the terms of convertible debt issue prior to accepting such agreements to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument. If a security or instrument becomes convertible only upon the occurrence of a future event outside the control of the Company, or, is convertible from inception, but contains conversion terms that change upon the occurrence of a future event, then any contingent beneficial conversion feature is measured and recognized when the triggering event occurs, and contingency has been resolved. Our prior convertible debt agreements included inducements such as restricted common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. We account for the following convertible debt features when present:
· | Embedded Derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the convertible debt derivative using the Black Scholes method upon the date of issuance. If the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is higher than the face value of the convertible debt, the excess is immediately recognized as interest expense. Otherwise, the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is recorded as a liability with an offsetting amount recorded as a debt discount, which offsets the carrying amount of the debt. The convertible debt derivative is revalued at the end of each reporting period and any change in fair value is recorded as a gain or loss in the statement of operations. The debt discount is amortized through interest expense over the life of the debt. |
16
· | Warrants issued as consideration with Convertible Debt. We estimate the fair value of any warrants issued in connection with convertible debt and record the fair value of such warrants as a debt discount, which is recorded as a contra-liability against the debt and amortized the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense which is included in the caption “interest expense” in the statement of operations. The offset to contra-liability is recorded as additional paid in capital if the stock consideration is not treated as a derivative. We estimate the fair value of warrants issued using a Black Scholes option pricing model which is a Level 2 fair value measurement. |
· | Stock issued as consideration with Convertible Debt. We estimate the fair value of common stock awarded in connection with the issuance of convertible debt as a debt discount. We record debt discounts as a contra-liability against the debt and amortize the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense which is included in the caption “interest expense” in the statement of operations. The offset to contra-liability is common stock for the par value of common stock issued and the balance is recorded as additional paid in capital if the stock consideration is not treated as a derivative. We estimate the value of stock issued in connection with convertible debt based on quoted market prices for the Company’s common stock which is a Level 1 fair value measurement. |
If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.
Share-Based Compensation
Share-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, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director 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 and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Share-based compensation is recorded in the statement of operations. Issuances of share-based compensation to date did not include any service performance element and as such equity awards were expensed and reported as share based compensation in the statement of operations when granted to recipients.
Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2024 as Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2023
Revenues
During the year ended December 31, 2024, our revenue decreased to $991,143 as compared to $1,096,575 in the same period last year. The decrease in revenues was primarily related to delays of new client marketing campaigns that were outside our control. The timing of revenues may vary from time to time depending on the types of marketing services and campaigns authorized by our clients.
Cost of revenues
During the year ended December 31, 2024, cost of revenues slightly decreased to $522,715 as compared to $548,278 last year. The decrease was due to lower market data costs we use to run client marketing campaigns and services. Our total cost of services may fluctuate from time to time depending on the types of marketing services and campaigns we run for our clients.
17
Operating expenses
During the year ended December 31, 2024, operating expenses significantly decreased to $974,128 as compared to $1,322,607 last year. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a reduction in our sales team and administrative staff. We attempted to execute an aggressive sales growth strategy in 2022 and 2023 to test our ability to scale our business model; but later decided near the end of 2023 to scale back and run with a nimbler and more experienced sales team.
Other expenses
During the year ended December 31, 2024, other expenses decreased to $109,561 as compared to $295,326 last year. In 2024, we recorded an extinguishment of debt charge of $11,409 related to our convertible note conversion rate modification and another charge of $29,242 related to our early termination of our operating lease and the remainder related to our working capital funded debt interest costs. In 2023, we had higher interest charges related to original issue discounts tied to convertible debt and related debt inducements and a non-recurring intangible asset impairment charge associated with our decision to discontinue our investor center software solution.
Provision for income taxes
During the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no provision for income taxes as we had a net operating losses. In 2023, we placed a full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets of approximately $2,129,650.
Net loss
During the year ended December 31, 2024, our net loss decreased to $615,261 as compared to $1,069,636 last year due to the reasons stated above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We may need to raise additional capital to fund our operations and there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all. In the short term, we must raise additional capital through debt or equity financing to support our business operations and to grow our business. Over the long term, we must successfully execute our growth plans to increase profitable revenue and income streams to generate positive cash flows to sustain adequate liquidity to meet minimum operating requirements.
Net Working Capital
At December 31, 2024, we had a net working capital deficit of approximately $1,171,822 compared to a net working capital deficit of $920,469 at December 31, 2023. Our immediate sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable; however, these cashflows from operations at this stage of our development will not sustain our operations. As shown in our audited financial statements, we have, since inception, financed operations and limited capital expenditures through the sale of stock and convertible notes and working capital funded debt.
We relied on proceeds from customer payments and financing activities from the private placement sale of common stock in 2024 and 2023 to fund our business operations and growth plans.
We must successfully execute our business plan to increase profitability in order to achieve positive cash flows to sustain adequate liquidity without requiring additional funds from external sources to meet minimum operating requirements. We may need to raise additional capital to fund our operations and there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all.
18
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities provides an indication of our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from our recurring business activities. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in operations was approximately $361,875 driven by current year operating loss, partially offset by stock compensation. For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in operations was $603,658 driven primarily by current year operating loss and accrued liabilities, partially offset by non-cash expenses including debt discount amortization, intangible asset impairment and stock-based compensation.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no inflows or outflows for investing activities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities provides an indication of our debt financing and proceeds from capital raise transactions. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $316,139, primarily due to the proceeds from proceeds specialty funder working capital loans and the sale of common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $629,999, primarily due to the proceeds from working capital funding advances from specialty lenders, proceeds from the sale of a convertible note, proceeds from sale of common stock and proceeds from advances from our CEO.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation and the identification of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our financial reporting disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report , using the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The term “internal control over financial reporting”, as defined under Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, means a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuer’s principal executive officer and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by issuer’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Based upon the evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting at the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective as a result of continuing weaknesses principally due to the following:
§ | We had not established adequate financial reporting monitoring activities to mitigate the risk of management override, specifically because there are few employees and only one officers with management functions and therefore there is lack of segregation of duties. |
§ | We had inadequate document retention policies and procedures to ensure that all financial transactions were maintained and easily accessible. |
§ | We had inadequate policies and procedures related to internal control over financial reporting and as such relied heavily on outside consultants and advisors to assist us in the preparation of the annual and quarterly financial statements and partners with us to ensure compliance with US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements. |
§ | We currently do not have board of directors and audit committee oversight. The lack of oversight of by a board of directors could result in failure to ensure robust financial reporting, internal controls and inaccurate disclosures. Additionally, the lack of oversight could result in a conflict of interest, undermine board objectivity, transparency, and compliance. |
At such time as we raise additional working capital, we plan to add staff, initiate training, add additional subject matter expertise so that we may improve our processes, policies, procedures, and documentation of our internal control processes.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred since last year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

However, there are currently no formal standards for accepting or rejecting such nominations.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023
INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Specificity, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Specificity, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of a matter – Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 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 its 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 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business Overview
Specificity, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 25, 2020 (“Inception”). The Company’s principal headquarters is located at 8429 Lorraine Rd., Suite 377, Lakewood Ranch, FL 34202.
The Company is a full service digital marketing firm that delivers cutting-edge marketing solutions to identify and market in real-time to potential customers who are actively in the buying cycle. The Company’s digital marketing solutions focus on Business to Business (“B2B”) and Business to Consumer (“B2C”) consumer markets and give small and medium sized businesses a fair chance to capture online traffic. The Company’s underlying technology solution utilizes BiToS and Mobile Advertising Identifiers (MAIDs) to build audiences, effectively eliminating bot traffic and ad waste and produces real-time messaging opportunities to reach target audiences more efficiently than broad based market messaging platforms. The Company also implements intuitive ad sequencing, audience ID technology, Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) integration, saturation modeling, conversion funneling, Customer Relationship Management (“CRM”) integration, traffic resolution, and comprehensive analytics reporting.
The Company’s digital marketing capabilities were acquired through organic development in-house and through its efforts as a tech incubator and early adopter of innovative marketing tools. The Company principally generates revenue from its primary digital marketing solution; however, it has three other digital marketing solutions for which development is in varying stages of completion and/or waiting to be deployed to the marketplace. Refer to Note 3 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers for additional discussion about our digital marketing solution offerings.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The Company is a development stage corporation. The Company has performed an annual assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern as required under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (“ASU No. 2014-15”) and concluded that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to increase revenues and raise additional funds to implement its full business plan.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming
that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course
of business. As reflected in the financial statements, the Company has $

The Company’s ability to raise additional equity capital has
been delayed due to the SEC’s enforcement proceedings against its former audit firm BF Borgers CPA PC and its owner, Benjamin F.
Borgers, where in the SEC charged them with deliberate and systematic failures to comply with PCAOB standards in their audits and reviews
of hundreds of public companies, which were incorporated in more than 1,500 SEC filings from January 2021 through June 2023. As a result,
the Company was unable to complete and file its annual report and quarterly reports in a timely manner. In the interim, the Company raised
capital through short term bridge loans and also entered into a 24-month Strata Purchase Agreement (“Strata Agreement”) with
a private investor who committed to purchase up to $
In the long run, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to implement the business plan, raise capital, and generate sufficient revenues to generate positive net income and cash flow. There is no guarantee that the Company will ever be able to raise sufficient capital or generate a level of revenue to sustain its operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31st.
Reportable Operating Segments
The Company operates its digital marketing business as a single segment business. We consider a combination of factors when evaluating the composition of potential reportable segments, including the results regularly provided to our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), economic characteristics of our digital marketing services offered, classes of clients (when applicable), geographic considerations (e.g. United States versus the rest of the world), and regulatory environment considerations (if applicable).
Development Stage Company
The Company is a development stage company as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915 “Development Stage Entities.” The Company is devoting substantially all of its efforts on establishing the business and generating sufficient revenue to support its ongoing operations. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company's development stage activities. The Company has elected to adopt application of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. Upon adoption, the Company no longer presents or discloses inception-to-date information and other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates include the valuation of share-based compensation, embedded derivatives within convertible note issuances, and allowance against deferred tax assets.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts in the statement of operations have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less to be cash equivalents for purposes of these financial statements. The Company had
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable is recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, if needed. The Company considers any changes to the financial condition of its financial institutions used and any other external market factors that could impact the collectability of its receivables in the determination of its allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company does not have significant accounts receivable due to their billing practices which require upfront payment for services on or before the first of each month. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to have write-offs or adjustments to accounts receivable which could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the portion which is deemed uncollectible is already taken into account when the revenue is recognized.
Property and Equipment
The Company’s primary property and equipment consists of office equipment. Property and equipment is recorded at historical cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs that do not extend the life of property and equipment are charged to operating expense as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed under the straight line method of depreciation over the assets estimated useful life. Upon sale or retirement of equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed, and any gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations and cash proceeds, if any, are reflected in the statement of cash flows from investing activities.

Intangible Assets
The Company’s primary intangible assets consist of website development
costs and internally developed software used to deliver digital marketing services. The Company expenses website and internally developed
software costs incurred during the planning and content development phases of development. The Company expenses hosting costs incurred
during all stages of development. The Company capitalizes all costs incurred during active development of the application and infrastructure
and graphics, including acquired technology stacks. Software related intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over
an estimated economic life of three (
Right of Use Assets and Liabilities
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and operating lease liabilities in the balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease agreements do not typically provide an implicit rate, as such the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. For lease agreements with lease and non-lease components are generally accounted for separately.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long lived assets (including intangible assets) are reviewed by the
Company’s management when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used in measured by comparing the carrying amount of an
asset or asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying
amount of an asset or asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which
the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset or asset group. Long-lived assets to be
disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of their carrying amounts or their estimated fair values less costs to sell and are not
depreciated. There were
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. The Company categorizes each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
F-9
SPECIFICITY, INC.
Notes to Financial Statements
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
§ | Level 1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 1 investments include U.S. government securities, common and preferred stock, and mutual funds. Level 1 assets and liabilities include those actively traded on exchanges. Level 1 inputs are used to determine the value of shares issued as an inducement in connection with the issuance of convertible debt structures. |
§ | Level 2 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies. Level 2 inputs are used to determine the fair value of preferred issued for no consideration if there is a prior market transaction. |
§ | Level 3 – inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models. Level 3 inputs are used to determine the value of stock warrants, if applicable. |
The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, working capital funding loans, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s principal transactions subject to fair value estimates are share based compensation (Level 1) and stock warrants (Level 2).
Convertible Debt
The Company may enter into negotiated short term convertible debt agreement to provide bridge capital in between equity raises. The Company evaluates the terms of convertible debt issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument. If a security or instrument becomes convertible only upon the occurrence of a future event outside the control of the Company, or, is convertible from inception, but contains conversion terms that change upon the occurrence of a future event, then any contingent beneficial conversion feature is measured and recognized when the triggering event occurs, and contingency has been resolved. Conversion features that appear in convertible notes issued by the Company are accounted for as set forth below:
· | Embedded Derivatives. If the conversion feature within convertible
debt meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, then the Company will estimate the fair value of the convertible debt derivative
using the Black Scholes method upon the date of issuance. If the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is higher than the face
value of the convertible debt, the excess is immediately recognized as interest expense. Otherwise, the fair value of the convertible
debt derivative is recorded as a liability with an offsetting amount recorded as a debt discount, which offsets the carrying amount of
the debt. The convertible debt derivative is revalued at the end of each reporting period and any change in fair value is recorded as
a gain or loss in the statement of operations. The debt discount is amortized through interest expense over the life of the debt. During
the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were |
F-10
SPECIFICITY, INC.
Notes to Financial Statements
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
· | Beneficial Conversion Feature. If the conversion feature is not treated as a derivative, the Company assesses whether it is a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF exists if the conversion price of the convertible debt instrument is less than the stock price on the commitment date. This typically occurs when the conversion price is less than the fair value of the stock on the date the instrument was issued. The value of a BCF is equal to the intrinsic value of the feature, the difference between the conversion price and the common stock into which it is convertible and is recorded as additional paid in capital and as a debt discount in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense in the statements of operations. If the debt is retired early, the associated debt discount is then recognized immediately as amortization of debt discount expense which is included in the caption “interest expense” in the statements of operations. There were no beneficial conversion features identified for the Company’s prior outstanding convertible debt. |
· | Warrants issued as consideration with Convertible Debt. The Company
treats the issuance of shares of common stock in connection with the issuance of convertible debt as a debt discount, which is recorded
as a contra-liability against the debt and amortizes the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount
expense which is included in the caption “interest expense” in the statement of operations. The offset to contra-liability
is recorded as additional paid in capital if the stock consideration is not treated as a derivative. The Company determines the value
of warrants issued in connection with convertible debt using a Black Scholes option pricing model which is a Level 2 fair value measurement.
During the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were |
· | Stock issued as consideration with Convertible Debt. The Company treats the issuance of shares of common stock in connection with the issuance of convertible debt as a debt discount, which is recorded as a contra-liability against the debt and amortizes the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense which is included in the caption “interest expense” in the statement of operations. The offset to contra-liability is recorded as additional paid in capital if the stock consideration is not treated as a derivative. The Company determines the value of stock issued in connection with convertible debt based on quoted market prices for the Company’s common stock which is a Level 1 fair value measurement. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not issue additional consideration to its convertible noteholder. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued shares of common stock as additional consideration to its convertible noteholder (see Note 6). |
If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.

Warrants
The Company may issue warrants as additional consideration when issuing convertible note financing as a bridge loan in between equity raises. The Company issues detachable freestanding warrants to purchase common stock for cash. The Company does not issue warrants or other financial instruments indexed to the Company’s stock, change of control or any other factor not closely related to the warrant. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“Binomial Model”) to value warrants issued in connection with capital raise transactions. The estimated fair value of a warrant is determined using Level 2 inputs. Inherent in a binomial options pricing model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates as zero.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.
Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed.
The Company filed its federal corporate tax returns since inception.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company’s performance obligation, associated
with digital marketing solutions generally consist of the promise to deliver digital marketing services. Digital marketing solutions are
delivered as a service and as such the performance obligation is complete once marketing tools or solutions are made available to the
customer, or as determined by the specific terms of the contract, if applicable. The Company charges its clients a fixed monthly retainer
for its services and such retainer is automatically renewed on a monthly basis on the first of the month unless cancelled by the client
in accordance with the terms of the service agreement. If any customer pays for digital marketing services in advance, those payments
are initially recorded as deferred revenue and then recognized as revenue when digital marketing services are delivered. As of December
31, 2024, the Company had
The Company’s standard sales terms generally do not generally allow for a right of return due to the nature of digital marketing services. After completion of the Company’s performance obligation, there is an unconditional right to consideration as outlined in the contract. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contracts with customers are satisfied.
The Company offers three digital marketing solutions within its single segment business.

Advertising, Marketing and Promotion Costs
The Company expenses advertising, marketing and promotion costs related
to its digital marketing offerings in the period in which the expenditure is incurred. Digital marketing services will be promoted through
recognized social media networks and other marketing channels, and at targeted events. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023,

and 2023, the Company incurred capital raise promotion costs of $
Share-Based Compensation
Share-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, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director 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 and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Share-based compensation is recorded in the statement of operations. Issuances of share-based compensation to date did not include any service performance element and as such equity awards were expensed and reported as share based compensation in the statement of operations when granted to recipients.
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 “Earnings per Share (EPS)”. EPS is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive (See Note 11).
New Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The purpose of the amendment is to enable investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. There was no material impact upon adoption of this ASU as the Company’s operates a single segment business and all significant revenues and costs to conduct business are disclosed in its statements of operations.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The ASC is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. The ASC guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new ASU on its financial statements.
On January 1, 2024, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-06—Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The FASB issued ASU 2020-06 in August 2020 which, among other things, simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity and amends the diluted EPS computation for these instruments. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, for smaller reporting companies. Earlier adoption is permitted but not earlier than December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 during the first quarter of 2024 on a modified retrospective basis. There was no material impact upon adoption of this ASU as the Company’s did not previously record any beneficial conversion features in connection with its convertible note issued in 2023.
The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date that amend the original text of ASC. The Company believes those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company, except for those cited above.

Working Capital Funding Loans
The Company finances short term working capital requirements in between capital raises by entering into secured borrowing agreements for which future receivables are pledged to repay these short-term obligations. Funding is generally nonrecourse one-time fixed amount financing arrangements and contain a performance and personal guarantee by the CEO and COO. Repayments are made generally on a weekly basis out of available daily deposits until the financing has been repaid in full. Future sales of revenues are not within the scope of ASC 860 (Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets), as such these arrangements are accounted for under ASC 470 (Debt) as short term secured credit facilities. Accordingly, these secured borrowings are reported as short term financing on the balance sheet. Upon receipt of financing proceeds the Company recognizes a liability equal to the net proceeds received. Interest expense is recognized when payments are made under this arrangement. Interest is computed using the percentage purchased factor times the payment made under the agreement. Working capital funding loans consisted of the following:

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
The Company’s deferred tax assets predominantly consist of temporary differences arising from net operating loss carryforwards, accrued compensation and shared based compensation. In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. A significant piece of objective negative evidence considered in management’s evaluation of the realizability of its deferred tax assets was the limited financial history and forecasted losses during the first full year of operations of the Company. On the basis of this evaluation, management recorded a valuation allowance against all deferred tax assets as the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income during the period in which these temporary differences become deductible.

NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business, it is possible that the Company may be the subject of lawsuits and claims from time to time. The Company’s management, with input from legal counsel, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in proceedings, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that a probable and material loss has been incurred and the amount of liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, is disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. The Company is not party to any pending or threatened litigation in connection with its principal business activities.
