SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION
CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current expectations, assumptions or forecasts of future events based on information currently available to our management. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Form 10-Q. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions; prospective products, applications, customers and technologies; future performance or results of anticipated products; anticipated expenses; and projected financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
● | our history of losses; |
● | our ability to implement our growth strategy and achieve profitability; |
● | our limited operating history with recent acquisitions; |
● | our ability to obtain adequate financing in the future as needed; |
● | our ability to continue as a going concern; |
● | our status as a foreign private issuer; |
● | impact of our expected delisting from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), and our ability to trade on an over-the-counter market maintained by OTC Markets Group Inc. (“OTC Markets”); |
● | customer demand for or acceptance of the products and services we develop or supply; |
● | the impact of competitive or alternative products, technologies and pricing; |
● | emerging competition and rapidly advancing technology in our industry that may outpace our technology; |
● | our ability to manufacture or distribute any products we develop or supply, and to secure and maintain strategic supply and manufacturing arrangements; |
● | our ability to protect our intellectual property; |
● | impact of any changes in existing or future regulatory and tax regimes applying to our business; |
● | our ability to successfully consummate strategic transactions and integrate companies or technologies we acquire; |
ii
● | our ability to attract and retain management and other employees who possess specialized knowledge and technical skills; |
● | our ability to develop and maintain effective internal controls; |
● | general economic conditions and events and the impact they may have on us and our customers, including, but not limited to escalating tariff and non-tariff trade measures imposed by the United States and other countries, increases in inflation rates and rates of interest, supply chain challenges, increased costs for materials and labor, cybersecurity threats, volatility in the financial and stock markets, and geopolitical conflicts such as those in Russia/Ukraine and Israel/Hamas; | |
● | the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings; |
● | our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items; and |
● | other factors discussed in this Form 10-Q. |
We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this Form 10-Q, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Some of these risks and uncertainties may be amplified in the future and there may be additional risks that we currently consider immaterial, or which are unknown.
You should read this Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Form 10-Q completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Form 10-Q is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
About the Company
On December 27, 2023 (the “record date”), we were spun off by our former parent company, XTI Aerospace Inc., formerly known as Inpixon (the “Parent”), by means of a transfer of all of our then outstanding common shares held by the Parent (the “spinoff shares”) to the Grafiti Holding Inc. Liquidating Trust (the “trust”), to be held for the benefit of holders of the Parent’s common stock, preferred stock and those outstanding warrants that were contractually entitled to participate in the distribution (collectively, the “participating Parent securityholders”). Following the effectiveness of our registration statement on Form 10-12B filed in connection with the spinoff (the “Form 10 Registration Statement”) on November 12, 2024, the trust delivered the spinoff shares to the participating Parent securityholders, as beneficiaries of the trust, pro rata in accordance with their ownership of shares or underlying shares of the Parent’s common stock as of the record date.
On November 13, 2024, we completed a business combination transaction with Damon Motors Inc. (“Damon Motors”), resulting in Damon Motors becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Business Combination”). Upon completion of the Business Combination with Damon Motors, we changed our corporate name from “Grafiti Holding Inc.” to “Damon Inc.” For further information about these transactions, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K filed by the us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 18, 2024 (the “November 18, 2024 8-K”).
Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, “we,” the “Company,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to Damon Inc. (“Damon”), formerly known as Grafiti Holding Inc. (“Grafiti Holding”), and as appropriate, its subsidiaries.
About Our Foreign Private Issuer Status
As a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, the Company qualifies as a “foreign private issuer,” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) in the United States, based on the applicable criteria as of the last business day of the Company’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter, ended December 31, 2024. Notwithstanding the Company’s qualification as a foreign private issuer, the Company has voluntarily chosen to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) periodic and current reports and registration statements on forms prescribed for U.S. domestic issuers, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, including this quarterly report, current reports on Form 8-K, and registration statements on Form S-1, instead of filing on the reporting and registration forms available to foreign private issuers.
Although the Company has voluntarily chosen to file periodic reports and current reports, as well as registration statements, on U.S. domestic issuer forms, the Company maintains its status as a foreign private issuer. Accordingly, as a foreign private issuer, the Company remains exempt from the U.S. federal proxy rules pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and Regulations 14A and 14C thereunder, Regulation FD, and its officers, directors, and principal shareholders are not subject to the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Additionally, the Company elects to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise required under the listing rules of Nasdaq, as further discussed under Part II, Item 5 of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2024 filed on February 14, 2025, as amended on March 17, 2025, and under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A in such quarterly report.

DAMON
INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 AND 2024
1. Nature and continuance of operation
Damon
Inc. (“Damon” or “the Company”, formerly Grafiti Holding Inc. or “Grafiti”) was originally incorporated
in British Columbia, Canada on
On October 23, 2023, Grafiti and XTI Aerospace, Inc. (then parent company of Grafiti) entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Damon Motors, Inc. (“Damon Motors”), in which Damon Motors would amalgamate with a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Grafiti (“Amalco Sub”), with Damon Motors continuing as the surviving entity (“Business Combination”). Damon Motors is developing motorcycles and other personal mobility solutions, integrating proprietary electric powertrain, shifting, and predictive awareness technologies to drive innovation through data intelligence and strategic partnerships.
On November 13, 2024, Damon Motors and Amalco Sub amalgamated to continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grafiti (the “Amalgamation”). Following the Amalgamation, Damon Motors became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grafiti and Grafiti was immediately renamed to “Damon Inc.” (also referred to herein as the “Pubco,” or the “combined company”). Throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, the “Company,” “we”, “us” or “our” and similar terms refer to Damon Motors and its subsidiary prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, and Damon and its subsidiaries after the consummation of the Business Combination.
In accordance with ASC 805- Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), the Business Combination between Damon (formerly Grafiti) and Damon Motors was accounted for as a reverse acquisition for financial reporting purposes, with Damon (formerly Grafiti) as the legal acquirer and Damon Motors treated as the accounting acquirer. Damon (formerly Grafiti) remains the continuing registrant and reporting company. Accordingly, the historical financial and operating data of the Company, which covers periods prior to the closing date of the Business Combination, reflects the assets, liabilities, and results of operations for Damon Motors and does not reflect the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Damon (formerly Grafiti) for the periods prior to November 12, 2024 (Note 3 – Business Combinations).
The common shares of the combined company are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “DMN”. Following a delisting determination by Nasdaq, trading of the Company’s common shares was halted on April 29, 2025. To enable the Company’s common shares to trade on an alternative market, the Company has determined to forego its right to appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination. The Nasdaq staff has informed the Company that its common shares will resume trading on Nasdaq for one trading day, on May 19, 2025, prior to suspending the common shares as of the following trading day. The Company expects its shares to begin trading on the OTC Pink Current Market on May 20, 2025, and is also seeking to have its shares posted for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”), though no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to satisfy the criteria for trading on the OTCQB or that the staff of OTC Markets will approve the posting of the Company’s shares for trading on the OTCQB.
The accompanying condensed interim unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation one year after the date these financial statements are issued and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
The Company is subject to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, the need for successful development of products, the need for additional capital (or financing) to fund operating losses (see below), competition from substitute products and services from larger companies, protection of proprietary technology, patent litigation, dependence on key individuals, and risks associated with changes in electric automotive technology. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to fund its research and development, complete the construction of a manufacturing facility or secure third-party manufacturing arrangements for the eventual production of electrical motorcycles and other personal mobility products and meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.
F-6
The
Company has utilized $
When substantial doubt exists, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.
Management’s plans to address the uncertainty that the Company will continue as a going concern include obtaining sufficient debt and equity financing for the Company’s operations and development plans. There is no assurance that the Company will obtain sufficient financing in a timely manner. As such, the substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated by management’s plans.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual audited financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended June 30, 2024 and the related notes thereto included in Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 10.
The condensed interim unaudited consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Grafiti Limited (formerly known as “Inpixon Limited”), Damon Motors Inc. and Damon Motors Corporation, over which the Company has control. Control occurs when the Company has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns. All intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and the subsidiary are eliminated upon consolidation.
Basis of measurement
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at their fair value as explained in the accounting policies set out below. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.
Significant accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from the estimates made by management.
Estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
F-7
Estimates include the following:
● | Estimating the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred of the acquired business |
● | Estimating the recoverable amount of non-financial assets, to determine and measure impairment losses on goodwill and intangible assets | |
● | Estimating the fair value of the Company’s common shares |
● | Classification and measurement of financial instruments |
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business acquisitions under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The total purchase consideration for an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets acquired, equity instruments issued and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. Costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets (including intangible assets), liabilities assumed (including contingent liabilities) and noncontrolling interests in an acquisition are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized if the fair value of the total purchase consideration and any noncontrolling interests is in excess of the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. A bargain purchase gain is recognized within other income (expense), net, on the consolidated statement of operations if the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed is in excess of the fair value of the total purchase consideration and any noncontrolling interests. The results of operations of the acquired business are included in the consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred for business combinations over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually on June 30 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.
Intangible assets
Intangible
assets with definite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s
sole intangible asset consists of the customer list acquired from the Business Combination, which had a remaining estimated useful life
of
Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets
The Company test for impairment of goodwill and intangible assets at the reporting unit level. The Company has two reporting units – electric personal mobility products unit and scientific software products and services reporting unit. The goodwill and intangible assets belong to scientific software products and services reporting unit.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025,
we identified indicators that the goodwill and intangible assets were impaired due to underperformance for revenue growth and estimated
future operating cash flow from the scientific software products and services reporting unit. A quantitative impairment test on goodwill
and intangible assets determined that the fair value was below the carrying value. The Company estimated fair value using a combination
of discounted cash flows and market comparisons. As a result, the Company recorded impairment of goodwill in the amount of $
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when control is transferred of the promised products or services to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. The Company derives revenue from the sale of software and software as a service.
F-8
License Revenue Recognition
The Company enters into contracts with its customers whereby it grants a non-exclusive license for the use of its proprietary software. The contracts provide for either (i) a one year stated term with a one-year renewal option, (ii) a perpetual term or (iii) a two-year term with the option to upgrade to a perpetual license at the end of the term. The contracts may also provide for yearly on-going maintenance services for a specified price, which includes maintenance services, designated support, and enhancements, upgrades and improvements to the software (the “Maintenance Services”), depending on the contract. Licenses for on-premises software provide the customer with a right to use the software as it exists when made available to the customer. All software provides customers with the same functionality and differ mainly in the duration over which the customer benefits from the software.
The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition related to the licensing revenue stream is dependent on whether the software licensing agreement entered into represents a good or service. Software that relies on an entity’s IP and is delivered only through a hosting arrangement, where the customer cannot take possession of the software, is a service. A software arrangement that is provided through an access code or key represents the transfer of a good. Licenses for on-premises software represents a good and provide the customer with a right to use the software as it exists when made available to the customer. Customers may purchase perpetual licenses or subscribe to licenses, which provide customers with the same functionality and differ mainly in the duration over which the customer benefits from the software. Revenue from distinct on-premises licenses is recognized at a point in time when the software is made available to the customer.
Renewals or extensions of licenses are evaluated as distinct licenses (i.e., a distinct good or service), and revenue attributed to the distinct good or service cannot be recognized until (1) the entity provides the distinct license (or makes the license available) to the customer and (2) the customer is able to use and benefit from the distinct license. Renewal contracts are not combined with original contracts, and, as a result, the renewal right is evaluated in the same manner as all other additional rights granted after the initial contract. The revenue is not recognized until the customer can begin to use and benefit from the license, which is typically at the beginning of the license renewal period. Therefore, the Company recognizes revenue resulting from renewal of licensed software starting at the beginning of the license renewal period.
The Company recognizes revenue related to software as a service evenly over the service period using a time-based measure because the Company is providing continuous service and the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s performance as the services are performed.
Contract Balances
The
timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. The Company records a receivable
when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes
the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company
had deferred revenue of $
Costs to Obtain a Contract
The Company does not have a history of incurring incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer, but if the Company incurs these costs in the future, the Company will recognize these costs as an asset that will be amortized over the expected contract term.
Cost to Fulfill a Contract
The Company incurs costs to fulfill their obligations under a contract once it has obtained, but before transferring goods or services to the customer. The Company has determined that these costs are immaterial. Therefore, the Company expenses the costs as they are incurred.
F-9
Multiple Performance Obligations
The Company enters into contracts with customers for its technology licenses that may include multiple performance obligations. Each distinct performance obligation was determined by whether the customer could benefit from the good or service on its own or together with readily available resources. The Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. The Company’s contracts with its customers outline the terms of the number of software licenses to be issued and any Maintenance Services, along with the agreed-upon prices. The price for both the licenses and any related Maintenance Fees are fixed and stated in the contract.
Sales and Use Taxes
The Company presents transactional taxes such as sales and use tax collected from customers and remitted to government authorities on a net basis.
Segment reporting
Operating
segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by
the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing
performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s operations consist of
Foreign currency translation
The Company and its subsidiaries’ functional currency is U.S. dollars (“USD”), except for the functional currency of Grafiti Limited is British Pound.
Each entity within the consolidated group records transactions using its functional currency, being the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the respective functional currency of each entity using the foreign currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Period-end balances of monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency are translated to the respective functional currencies using period-end foreign currency rates. Foreign currency gains and losses arising from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations that have a functional currency other than USD are translated into USD at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period. The resulting translation gains and losses are included within other comprehensive loss. The cumulative deferred translation gains or losses on the foreign operations are reclassified to net income, only on disposal of the foreign operations.
Fair value measurements
The Company follows the accounting guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, for its fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
The accounting guidance requires fair value measurements be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, for similar assets or liabilities that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.
F-10
Our financial assets include cash and accounts receivable. Our financial liabilities include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, short -term debt, pre-paid purchase, financial liability convertible to equity, convertible notes and lease liabilities. The carrying amounts of these instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and trade payables and accrued liabilities, are considered to be representative of their fair values because of their short-term nature.
Share-based compensation classified as mezzanine equity
Share-based compensation subject to possible redemption are classified as mezzanine equity based on the guidance provided under ASC 480-10-S99-3A and SAB Topic 14E. See also Note 11 for additional information on share-based compensation granted to the underwriter in connection with an offering of common stocks and warrants.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of principally cash and cash equivalents, bank
deposits and certain receivables. The Company holds cash and cash equivalents with highly rated financial institutions. Balances with
these institutions exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured amount of $
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to increase the transparency and usefulness of income tax information through improvements to the income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effects of the new guidance. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, that requires public companies to disclose, in interim and reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the financial statements. For public business entities, it is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on the Company’s disclosures within the consolidated financial statements.

During
the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company determined that based on its qualitative assessment for scientific software products
and services reporting unit, factors existed which required the Company to test its goodwill and intangible assets for impairment. These
factors included underperformance for revenue growth and operating cash flow from the scientific software products and services reporting
unit, decline of the market price of the Company's common stock, and general economic and market volatility. A quantitative impairment
test on goodwill and intangible assets determined that the fair value was below the carrying value. The Company estimated fair value using
a combination of discounted cash flows and market comparisons. It is also determined that the decline of the fair value of the scientific
software products and services reporting unit is not temporary. As such, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded
a non-recurring level 3 valuation charge, including impairment of goodwill in the amount of $

From
August through September 2022, the Company entered into multiple SAFE agreements certain investors and received $
The SAFEs are valued by management at each measurement date based on the Company’s estimated enterprise value implied by the most comparable transaction and allocating the value to each of the Company’s equity-linked instruments (preferred shares, SAFE agreements, convertible promissory notes, share purchase warrants, stock options and common shares) based on their respective characteristics and rights. In arriving at the value attributable to each instrument, the Company applies an option pricing model. The Company’s model values the preferred shares, SAFEs, common shares, and stock options as call options on the Company’s equity value with exercise prices based on the conversion options of the respective instruments.
The model used for the valuation of convertible promissory notes, share purchase warrants and SAFEs used certain assumptions as of June 30, 2024, including volatility, risk free rates and management’s best estimate of the expected time for the occurrence of a conversion event as described in Note 8 above.

As of March 31, 2025, the warrant liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis were based on the pricing model with assumptions of stock price and warrant exercise price, which were generally observable (Level 2).
As of June 30, 2024, the convertible notes and SAFEs that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis were categorized as Level 3. For assets and liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company reassesses categorization to determine whether changes have occurred between the hierarchy levels at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of these Level 3 financial liabilities is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation (see Note 8).
Areas of significant judgement are the risk-free rate, volatility rate, dividend yield, term to liquidation, discount for lack of marketability, most recent financing rounds and implied equity value per letter of intent. These valuations use assumptions and estimates the Company believes would be made by a market participant in making the same valuation. The Company reassesses these assumptions and estimates on an on-going basis as additional data impacting the assumptions and estimates are obtained. A significant increase/decrease in some of those unobservable inputs would result in a significantly higher/lower fair value measurement.

Overview of Our Business
Our Personal Mobility Products Development Business Through Damon Motors
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Damon Motors Inc. (“Damon Motors”), is developing electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products that seek to empower the personal mobility industry through innovation, data intelligence and strategic partnerships. Damon Motors is developing technology and investing in the capabilities to lead an integrated personal mobility ecosystem from individual travels to last mile delivery. With decades of combined management and engineering experience across the team’s careers, and a commitment to low carbon personal mobility solutions, Damon Motors is seeking to introduce existing enthusiasts to high-performance electric products while bringing new riders to the motorcycle community with first of its kind advances in zero emissions motorcycle performance, safety, connectivity and AI.
Founded in 2017, Damon Motors started reimagining the future of motorcycling by means of advanced safety design, electric vehicle powertrain technology and user experience. In 2019, Damon Motors took its first alpha prototype motorcycles and safety systems into the field to test the concept. In 2021, Damon Motors expanded its operations and R&D expertise to accelerate the engineering and development of its HyperDrive platform drive unit and the HyperSport motorcycle. Through core technology advancements, Damon Motors electric motorcycles are in prototype phase of product validation.
Damon Motors’s electric vehicles are developed with a set of proprietary design principles that elevate the brand, deliver differentiated riding experiences and bring emotion to electric propulsion. The initial product portfolio of motorcycle models will be built upon and utilize a single powertrain platform called HyperDrive™. As a patented, monocoque-constructed battery-chassis, HyperDrive houses a proprietary 150 kW 6-phase liquid cooled IPM motor-gearbox and proprietary electronics. This platform approach establishes a capital-efficient path to grow the product line to meet a wide range of future segments and price points, while also supporting a wide range of future motorcycle models and power sizes that share as much as 85 percent common parts. By using the frame of the battery as the motorcycle’s chassis, HyperDrive also achieves valuable weight and cost reduction advantages. With 150 kW of power at its disposal, HyperDrive has been specifically designed to compete with the performance of market leaders in the high-performance motorcycle market, whether internal combustion or electric. Thanks to the energy modularity designed into it, HyperDrive-based motorcycles can be detuned in power, energy and thus cost to support 500 – 1500cc power equivalent classes of motorcycles in both the North American and European markets, with price points ranging from $20,000 - $80,000.
The HyperDrive platform is contrasted by the smaller, less powerful and lower cost HyperLite platform, currently in its early design phase. HyperLite will be developed using a very similar design architecture as HyperDrive, enabling the production of a range of light weight, low to medium cost motorcycles and scooters with milder levels of horsepower that are more common in overseas and developing markets. With these two platforms paired with Damon Motors’s three patented cornerstone technologies, CoPilot™, Shift™ and its AI-enabled cloud platform. Damon Motors’s long-term objective is to build a premium, high-tech, electric motorcycle company that rivals the largest incumbents in both profit and annual volume, by providing a technologically enhanced riding experience that is not currently available from other manufacturers.
CoPilot provides a novel rider assistance and warning system integrated into the motorcycle. Shift allows the handlebars and foot pegs to mechatronically adjust on the fly, addressing issues of ergonomic comfort and allowing users to select different riding positions for changing conditions such as a lower, more aerodynamic position for highway use or a more upright position for urban use. Its AI-enabled cloud will collect environmental and situational data that, paired with over-the-air software updates, can drive a continual loop of collision warning improvements, with an aim to further reduce accident probability over time.
The commercial production of Damon Motors’s motorcycles is expected to commence after passing various internal and external tests and undergoing a self-certification process required for US-bound vehicle homologation. These tests include: the completion of Damon Motors’s ride quality and long-term durability testing, completion of FCC Title 47 certification for the onboard charger, completion of UN 38.3 battery testing, completion of Damon Motors’s internal battery testing, extreme temperature operation verification, brake testing per FMVSS, and an internal and external review of FMVSS compliance with Damon Motors engineering subcontractor TUV of Germany.

Our SAVES Distribution Business Through Grafiti Limited
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Grafiti Limited, distributes in the United Kingdom and certain other European countries data analytics and visualization software products referred to as “SAVES” primarily for scientists and engineers. Grafiti Limited products can be downloaded to a user’s desktop. These products help scientific research in the health and life sciences domain in the discovery of new drugs, in the study of the efficacy of established drugs and therapies, and in epidemic propagation research, among other applications. Engineers use our products for a multitude of applications which include, but are not limited to, conducting surface modelling analysis and curve fitting in order to design new engineering processes, studying signal attenuation and propagation in radio engineering. Potential automobile and motorcycle applications could include surface panel design for aerodynamics, aesthetic symmetry, and calculated asymmetry among others. We believe the Grafiti Limited regression analysis product could also be used for predicting vehicle sharing demand and pricing trends in various markets based on a wide range of variables.
Grafiti Limited’s strategy is to build a broader, long term customer base by increasing its sales of Grafiti Limited’s product offerings which will include cloud and Macintosh compatible data analytics and statistical visualization software products. We believe this will enable the Grafiti Limited business to focus on generating more recurring revenues in the future.
Our Corporate Strategy
We are pursuing a corporate strategy focused on developing a business offering of end-to-end solutions ranging from personal mobility products to the collection of data to delivering insights from that data to our customers with a focus on safety and data intelligence and engineering services. In connection with such strategy and to facilitate our long-term growth, we continue to evaluate various strategic transactions, including acquisitions of companies with personal mobility products, technologies and intellectual property that complement those goals by adding technology, differentiation, customers and/or revenue. We are primarily looking for accretive acquisitions that have business value and operational synergies, but will be opportunistic for other strategic and/or attractive transactions. We believe these complementary technologies will add value to the Company and allow us to provide a comprehensive integrated personal mobility ecosystem to our customers. In addition, we may seek to expand our capabilities around safety, security, artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality or other high growth sectors. Candidates with proven technologies and personal mobility products that complement our overall strategy may come from anywhere in the world, as long as there are strategic and financial reasons to make the acquisition. We are also exploring opportunities that will supplement our revenue growth. We are primarily looking for accretive acquisitions that have business value and operational synergies, yet also opportunistic for other strategic and/or attractive transactions that we believe may increase overall shareholder value, which may include, but not be limited to, other alternative investment opportunities, such as minority investments and joint ventures. If we make any acquisitions in the future, we expect that we may pay for such acquisitions using our equity securities and/or cash and debt financings in combinations appropriate for each acquisition.
Recent Transactions
Second Amendment to June 2024 Secured Promissory Note
On February 27, 2025, the Company and Streeterville Capital, LLC ( “Streeterville”) entered into a Second Amendment (the “Note Amendment”) to the Secured Promissory Note originally issued by the Company to Streeterville on June 26, 2024, in an original principal amount of $6,470,000 (as previously amended, the “June 2024 Note”).
Pursuant to the Note Amendment, the parties have agreed to amend the June 2024 Note to grant Streeterville the right to convert from time to time at its election, all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the June 2024 Note into common shares, no par value, of the Company (“Conversion Shares”). The number of Conversion Shares deliverable under a conversion notice will be equal to the amount of the outstanding balance of the June 2024 Note being converted, divided by the conversion price, which is 90% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares reported by Bloomberg during the ten trading days preceding the delivery date of a conversion notice. This is subject to a floor price of $0.20 per share (the “June 2024 Note Floor Price”), which will be adjusted accordingly in the event of a share split or combination. If the Company issues any securities with a floor price less than $0.20 per share in the future, the June 2024 Note Floor Price will automatically adjust to be equal to such lower floor price.
2
Upon the closing of the underwritten registered offering on March 21, 2025 as described below (the “Offering”), the outstanding principal amount was partially repaid and reduced to $4,491,700, and the June 2024 Note Floor Price was adjusted to $0.0251.
Amendments to December 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement
On February 27, 2025, the Company and Streeterville entered into an Amendment No. 1 (the “SPA Amendment”) to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 20, 2024 (the “December 2024 SPA”). Under the SPA Amendment, the Company represented as to its foreign private issuer status and ability to follow home country practice instead of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) shareholder approval requirements. The parties agreed that, as long the Company remains a foreign private issuer, the Company is not required to seek shareholder approval for issuing shares pursuant to the December 2024 SPA above the limit set by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). If the Company loses its foreign private issuer status, it must obtain such approval within 90 days. Additionally, in connection with the Offering, the Company agreed to permit Streeterville, beginning 45 days after the closing of the Offering, to unilaterally elect to make pre-paid purchases up to $3,000,000 of the remaining commitment amount under the December 2024 SPA, without affecting the Company’s rights to require Streeterville to make pre-paid purchases in accordance with the terms of the December 2024 SPA.
As of March 31, 2025 and May 19, 2025, under the December 2024 SPA, the Company has received an aggregate of $4,400,000 pursuant to pre-paid purchases made by Streeterville out of the total $10,000,000 committed amount, resulting in an outstanding principal balance of $4,708,000, which excludes any accrued interest and is calculated prior to any purchase of common shares described below. Of the $4,400,000 received, a total of $460,000 has been used to repay the indebtedness under the June 2024 Note.
As of March 31, 2025 and May 19, 2025, Streeterville has purchased, and the Company has issued, a total of 8,133,614 common shares to satisfy pre-paid purchases made through this date, based on the pricing formula described in the December 2024 SPA, and as a result, the outstanding principal balance has been reduced to $3,158,000.
Completion of Registered Underwritten Offering
On March 20, 2025, in connection with the Offering, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Maxim Group LLC, as the sole underwriter (the “Underwriter”) , pursuant to which the Company sold and issued (i) 126,900,000 units (each a “Unit” and collectively, the “Units”) at a public offering price of $0.130 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of (A) one common share of the Company, no par value per share (each a “Common Share” and collectively, the “Common Shares”) and (B) one Series A Warrant (each a “Series A Warrant” and collectively, the “Series A Warrants”) to purchase one Common Share for cash or otherwise acquire such greater number of Common Shares as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Series A Warrant upon an alternate cashless exercise option and (ii) warrants to purchase 6,345,000 Common Shares to the Underwriter (each a “Underwriter’s Warrant” and collectively, the “Underwriter’s Warrants”) for cash or otherwise acquire such greater number of Common Shares as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Underwriter’s Warrant upon an alternate cashless exercise option. The Underwriter’s Warrants are identical to the Series A Warrants except that the Underwriter’s Warrants are subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA.
Each Series A Warrant is exercisable at an initial exercise price of $0.195 per share (150% of the public offering price per Unit). The Series A Warrants will be exercisable from issuance and will expire two and one-half (2.5) years after issuance. Additionally, under the alternate cashless exercise option of the Series A Warrants, during the period of 90 calendar days following the issue date of the Series A Warrants, a holder of the Series A Warrant has the right to receive, without payment of any additional cash to the Company, an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Common Shares that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series A Warrant and (y) two and a half (2.5). Accordingly, the Company believes it is highly unlikely that a holder of the Series A Warrants would pay an exercise price in cash to receive one Common Share when the holder could instead choose the alternate cashless exercise option and pay no cash to receive 2.5 Common Shares. As a result, the Company will likely not receive any additional funds and does not expect to receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants.
3
In addition, at 4:01 p.m. Eastern time on the 7th trading day after the date of issuance (the “First Reset Date”), the exercise price of the Series A Warrants was reset to $0.0502 per share, which equaled the initial floor price based on the first reset formula provided in the Series A Warrants; and the number of shares issuable upon exercise was increased such that the aggregate exercise price of the Series A Warrants on the issuance date for the Common Shares underlying the Series A Warrants then outstanding remained unchanged. Subsequently, at 4:01 p.m. Eastern time on the 15th trading day after the date of issuance (the “Second Reset Date”), the exercise price of the Series A Warrants was further reset to $0.0251 per share, which equaled the second floor price based on the second reset formula provided in the Series A Warrants; and the number of shares issuable upon exercise was further increased such that the aggregate exercise price of the Series A Warrants on the issuance date for the Common Shares underlying the Series A Warrants then outstanding remained unchanged.
Under the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriter an option to purchase from the Company either up to an additional 19,035,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.129 per share, or up to 19,035,000 Series A Warrants to purchase Common Shares at a price of $0.001 per warrant, or a combination of the two (the “Overallotment Option”). On March 21, 2025, the Underwriter exercised its Overallotment Option with respect to 19,035,000 Series A Warrants.
The Underwriter received a cash fee of six and a half percent (6.5%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Offering as underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company paid $100,000 of the Underwriter’s out-of-pocket accountable expenses in connection with the Offering.
The Offering closed on March 21, 2025. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $15 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, including research and development as well as marketing and sales of the Company’s products. Additionally, the Company used approximately 14% of the net proceeds to repay the outstanding balance of the June 2024 Note.
The Offering was made pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-285872), which was initially filed with the SEC on March 18, 2025, and declared effective by the SEC on March 20, 2025, and a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 285981), which was filed with the SEC on March 20, 2025 and became effective upon filing. The final prospectus relating to the Offering was filed with the SEC on March 21, 2025.
Subsequent Exercise of Series A Warrants
Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company has issued an aggregate of 1,946,710,549 common shares upon exercise of the Series A Warrants pursuant to the alternate cashless exercise provision. The fair value of the exercised warrants in the amount of $14,396,075 were recorded to equity. As of May 19, 2025, 2,352 Series A Warrants remain outstanding, which may result in the issuance of up to 45,681 additional common shares, assuming exercise on an alternate cashless basis at the floor price of $0.0251.
Termination of Loan Documents
On March 29, 2025, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Braebeacon Holdings Inc. (“Braebeacon”) to formally terminate the following loan agreements, under which the Company received no loan funds prior to such termination: (i) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, between the Company and Braebeacon; (ii) the Secured Promissory Note, dated November 13, 2024, issued by the Company to Braebeacon; (iii) the Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, executed by the Company in favor of Braebeacon; (iv) the Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in favor of Braebeacon; (v) the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors, Inc. in favor of Braebeacon; (vi) the Guaranty, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors, Inc. in favor of Braebeacon; and (vii) the Guaranty, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in favor of Braebeacon.

Under the Agreement, EE will be responsible for delivering services in multiple areas including technical compliance, component selection, development and validation testing, and prototyping. The Project is structured into nine development phases continuing through March 2026, with specific milestones and deliverables required at each phase.
The total contract value of the Agreement is €1,581,670, with half of the amount invoiced on the date of the Agreement, and the remaining half tied to milestone-based deliverables for each phase of the Project, to be invoiced in installments following the Company’s acceptance of the corresponding phase.
Pursuant to the Agreement, all work product developed under the Agreement will be owned by the Company upon full payment for the applicable phase, while EE retains ownership of its pre-existing intellectual property and grants the Company an irrevocable, perpetual, nonexclusive, worldwide and paid-up license to use such intellectual property and create derivative works from it when used as part of or in support of the work product developed under the Agreement.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience, current trends, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be affected. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.
There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates as compared to those disclosed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the year ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 included in the information statement filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the amended registration statement on Form 10-12B filed with the SEC on September 26, 2024, except as disclosed below.
Warrant Liabilities
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, other non-operating loss were $5,857,606, compared to $9,621,158 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease of other non-operating loss of $3,763,552 was primarily due to the following:
● | loss from change in fair value of financial liabilities decreased by $8,201,000; | |

● | finance expense for warrants issuance increased by approximately $4,739,000; |

● | finance expense for warrants issuance increased by approximately $4,739,000; | |
● | interest expense increased by approximately $532,000. |
Net Loss
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $25,163,438, compared to a net loss of $13,096,933 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in net loss is mainly due to the Company recognized impairment of goodwill and intangible assets of $14,119,955 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in net loss was partially offset by the $nil fair value loss recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to a fair value loss of $8,201,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,354,505, compared to a net loss of $25,604,984 for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net loss is mainly due to the income from change in fair value of financial liabilities of $34,333,573 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the loss from change in fair value of financial liabilities of $12,939,830 for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. Upon the completion of Business Combination, the convertible notes were mandatorily converted into 16,496,750 Damon Motor’s common shares. Upon conversion, the carrying value of the convertible debt approximates fair value of the shares issued.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $7,555,820, and working capital deficiency of approximately $21.1 million. The Company’s accumulated deficit and expected future losses cast substantial doubt upon its ability to continue as a going concern. Furthermore, the Company had negative cash flows from operating activities of approximately $14.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025. These operating losses and negative cash flows were mainly the result of on-going operating costs, transaction costs incurred due to the business combination and the public listing exercise and financing cost to sustain its operation. Based on the foregoing and its growth strategy, the Company expects to continue to make significant expenditures to expand its business and develop operations in the future. As a result, the Company may continue to incur operating losses and have negative cash flows in the short term, as it continues to execute on its growth strategy and develop operations to produce the motorcycles to meet delivery of the motorcycles in our order book. As such, the substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated by management’s plans.
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity used in the funding of its operations and the execution of its growth comes from on-going fund raised in the form of issuance of share capital. The Company cannot provide assurance that the Company will secure financing in a timely manner.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act to mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and includes, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, being March 31, 2025. This evaluation was carried out by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025.
We determined material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting relating to ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes, including ineffective monitoring activities to assess the operation of internal controls over financial reporting and lack of sufficient controls designed and implemented for financial information processing and reporting and lacked personnel with requisite skills for financial reporting under U.S. GAAP.
Management is continuing to enhance and document the design and implementation of its internal control systems and has begun performing testing of certain controls, as part of its ongoing efforts to address the identified material weaknesses.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
The material weakness described above has not been remediated as of March 31, 2025. Other than the ongoing progress toward completing documentation and testing of the internal control systems of key financial cycles, there were no changes in our internal controls (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations of the Effectiveness of Control
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On March 7, 2025, the Company was served with a notice of civil claim (the “Notice”), which was filed on February 28, 2025, in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by Damon Jay Mercredi Giraud, former director and CEO of the Company (the “Plaintiff”), against the Company and all of the directors of the Company. The Notice alleges, among other things, that in connection with the Plaintiff’s resignation (i) the Board agreed to certain settlement terms which included provisions related to the payment of a listing bonus contingent on the Company’s successful listing on a recognized stock exchange (the “Listing Bonus”) and backpay for unpaid wages; and (ii) after the effective date of the Plaintiff’s resignation, the Company provided the Plaintiff with a written settlement agreement which fundamentally altered the terms of the previously agreed settlement terms, including the payment date for the Listing Bonus and backpay for unpaid wages; and (iii) that the Company has not discharged its obligations pursuant to the alleged settlement terms and (iv) that the Plaintiff received a letter from major shareholders containing unfounded accusations against the Plaintiff and threatening him with legal action, and that such letter was sent by or at the direction of the Company. The Company is required to respond within 21 days after the date a copy of the Notice was served. As of the date of the filing, neither the Company or its directors have responded to the Notice and the Company denies the allegations of wrongdoing described in the Notice. The relief sought by the Plaintiff includes, among others, specific performance of the allegedly original verbal settlement terms, an order assigning any debts in the Plaintiff’s name owed by the Company to the Company, and special costs, or, in the alternative, breach of an employment contract, and damages for wrongful dismissal.
On April 11, 2025, Andy DeFrancesco (“DeFrancesco”) filed a notice of civil claim (the “Claim”) against the Company in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. In the Claim, DeFrancesco alleges that, in or around October 2023, the Company’s executives verbally agreed to issue $3.2 million worth of the Company’s shares (the “Shares”) to DeFrancesco in exchange for past and future services provided to Damon, including advising and working with the Company on financings and other operational aspects. DeFrancesco further alleges the Shares were to be provided as soon as possible and that he delivered an irrevocable direction regarding delivery of the shares in November 2023, however the Company has refused to issue the Shares. The relief sought by DeFrancesco includes specific performance of the alleged verbal agreement and damages for loss of opportunities caused by the alleged breach of contract or, alternatively, unjust enrichment on a quantum meruit basis for the services allegedly provided by DeFrancesco. The Company filed a response to the Civil Claim (defense) on May 9, 2025, denying all allegations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the risk factors below and the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 filed on March 18, 2025, which are incorporated herein by reference. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by these risks.
The Company is currently subject to a delisting determination by the staff of Nasdaq, and trading of its common shares was halted on April 29, 2025. The Company expects that after its common shares are delisted from Nasdaq, its common shares to begin trading on the OTC Pink Current Market, which may affect the market price and liquidity of the shares and could limit the Company’s ability to raise additional capital.
The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC requires listed companies to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed. On January 7, 2025, the Company received notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of Nasdaq that for the 30 consecutive business days from November 18, 2024 to January 6, 2025, the Company’s Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) was below the minimum of $50 million required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) (the “MVLS Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until July 7, 2025, to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement.
11
On January 22, 2025, the Company received notice from the Staff that the bid price of its common shares had not maintained a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until July 21, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On March 20, 2025, the Company received notice from the Staff that, for the 30 consecutive business days from February 3, 2025 to March 19, 2025, the Company’s Market Value of Publicly Held Shares (“MVPHS”) had not maintained a minimum aggregate market value of $15,000,000 required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(C) (the “MVPHS Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(D), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until September 16, 2025, to regain compliance with the MVPHS Requirement.
On April 4, 2025, the Company received notice (the “April 4 Letter”) from Nasdaq that the Staff has determined that as of April 3, 2025, the Company’s common shares had a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days, triggering application of Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) which states in part: if during any compliance period specified in Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), a company’s security has a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days, the Listing Qualifications Department shall issue a Staff Delisting Determination under Rule 5810 with respect to that security. As a result, the Staff has determined to delist the Company’s common shares from the Nasdaq Global Market, unless the Company timely requests an appeal of the Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series.
On April 25, 2025, the Company received a notification letter from the Staff, stating that based on its review of the Company’s public filings with the SEC, its staff has determined to delist the Company’s securities pursuant to its discretionary authority under Listing Rule 5101. Specifically, as set forth in the letter, Nasdaq’s staff determined that the Company’s issuance of securities pursuant to the underwriting agreement dated March 20, 2025, particularly the Series A warrants exercisable on an alternate cashless basis as described in the Company’s prior SEC filings, raises public interest concerns because the issuance resulted in substantial dilution for its shareholders. Accordingly, as set forth in the letter, this matter serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq.
On April 29, 2025, the Nasdaq staff informed the Company that, pursuant to the staff’s authority under Listing Rule 4120(a)(5), trading in its shares on Nasdaq has been halted pending the outcome of the Panel hearing, unless the staff determines to lift the halt prior to the hearing. To enable the Company’s common shares to trade on an alternative market, the Company has determined to forego its right to appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination. The Nasdaq staff has informed the Company that its common shares will resume trading on Nasdaq for one trading day, on May 19, 2025, prior to suspending the common shares as of the following trading day.
The Company currently expects that its common shares will begin trading on the OTC Pink Current Market maintained by OTC Markets on May 20, 2025, in accordance with Rule 15c2-11(f)(1) under the Exchange Act. The OTC Pink Current Market will become the OTCID Basic Market effective as of July 1, 2025. The Company is also seeking to have its shares posted for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”), though no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to satisfy the criteria for trading on the OTCQB or that the staff of OTC Markets will approve the posting of the Company’s shares for trading on the OTCQB.
Delisting from the Nasdaq could make trading our common shares more difficult for investors, potentially leading to declines in our share price and liquidity. In addition, without a Nasdaq market listing, shareholders may have a difficult time getting a quote for the sale or purchase of our shares, the sale or purchase of our shares would likely be made more difficult and the trading volume and liquidity of our shares could decline. Delisting from Nasdaq could also result in negative publicity and make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital. The absence of such a listing may adversely affect the acceptance of our common shares as transaction consideration or the value accorded our common shares by other parties. Further, following delisting, we would also incur additional costs under state blue sky laws in connection with any sales of our securities. These requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of our common shares and the ability of our shareholders to sell our common shares in the secondary market. Once delisted, they may come within the definition of “penny stock” as defined in the Exchange Act and would be covered by Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act. That Rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.
12
While we currently anticipate our common shares will begin trading on the OTC Pink Current Market after our common shares are delisted from Nasdaq, there is no guarantee that such trading will proceed as expected. If we are unable to resume trading, investors will face further limitations in the liquidity of our common shares, and our ability to raise capital, continue as a going concern, and maintain investor confidence could be materially and adversely affected. If our common shares are delisted from Nasdaq and our shares are unable to resume trading on any market, we may also face cash payment obligations and trigger defaults under our existing financing arrangements with Streeterville, which could further strain our liquidity position and ability to continue as a going concern.
Our stock price has been volatile, and the issuance of shares upon the exercise of Series A Warrants has resulted in significant dilution. Additional issuances under our current financing arrangements with Streeterville or other new issuances could further depress the market price of our common shares.
Following the closing of the underwritten registered offering on March 21, 2025 (the “Offering”), investors began exercising their Series A Warrants on an alternate cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 2,293,412,544 common shares by the Company. As of May 19, 2025, 2,352 Series A Warrants remain outstanding, which may result in the issuance of up to 45,681 additional common shares, assuming exercise on an alternative cashless basis at the floor price of $0.0251.
In connection with the Offering, the floor price under the June 2024 Note has been adjusted to $0.0251. As of May 19, 2025, the outstanding principal amount was partially repaid and reduced to $4,491,700, with an additional $570,578 in accrued unpaid interest, which may result in an issuance of 201,684,382 common shares assuming Streeterville will convert the remaining balance under the June 2024 Note at the floor price of $0.0251.
Additionally, as of May 19, 2025, the outstanding principal balance under the December 2024 SPA was $3,158,000, with an additional $97,080 in accrued unpaid interest. Streeterville may make purchases of common shares in satisfaction of outstanding pre-paid purchases pursuant to the pricing formula set forth in the December 2024 SPA. If the Company receives additional funding under the total $10,000,000 commitment or if Streeterville elects to purchase common shares in satisfaction of the outstanding balance under the December 2024 SPA, further issuances of common shares may occur.
In addition to these financing arrangements, the Company may issue additional common shares to settle outstanding obligations, raise capital, or compensate employees and service providers. For example, in connection with the settlement of certain fees owed to a former financial advisor, the Company has agreed to pay either cash or issue common shares in the amount of $1,000,000 no later than May 21, 2025, based on a pricing formula as described in greater detail in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2025; and the Company has also agreed to register any such issued shares no later than one trading day following their issuance. The Company is generally not restricted from issuing additional common shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for common shares. Under our Articles and British Columbia corporate law, we are authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares. Any actual or anticipated future issuances, particularly those at prices below the current market price, could significantly dilute existing shareholders, depress our share price, and impair our ability to raise capital.
