LASER PHOTONICS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
Laser Photonics Corporation (the “Company”) was formed under the laws of Wyoming on November 8, 2019, and changed its domicile to Delaware on March 5, 2020. The Company, located in central Florida, is a vertically integrated manufacturing company for photonics-based industrial products and solutions, primarily disruptive laser cleaning technologies.
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses which includes amendments that require disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation, amortization and depletion expenses for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. The amendments are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, the Company’s management has evaluated whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, included an explanatory paragraph regarding there being substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
The
Company has incurred recurring operating losses and experienced negative operating cash flows. For the three months ended March 31, 2026,
the Company reported a net loss of $
| 7 |
The improvement in working capital during the quarter was primarily attributable to financing activities completed during the period, including a February 2026 public offering, warrant exercises, and repayment of outstanding obligations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends on its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The Company has financed its working capital requirements through borrowing from various sources and the sale of its equity securities.
Management’s
plans to address these conditions include continued capital raising initiatives, including warrant exercise and inducement transactions
completed subsequent to quarter-end that generated approximately $
Accordingly, management concluded that substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern continues to exist.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Laser Photonics Corporation (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the financial statements of the Company’s wholly owned operating subsidiary, Control Micro Systems, Inc. (“CMS”). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes and significant accounting policies included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES & USE OF ESTIMATES.
ASC-280 Segment Reporting
The Company operates as a single reportable segment, as determined by the chief operating decision maker, who evaluates financial performance on a consolidated basis.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods. Estimates and assumptions include valuation of financial instruments, valuation of intangibles, stock-based compensation, revenue recognition, inventory valuation, depreciable lives, and deferred tax valuation allowances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Accounts Receivable
Trade
accounts receivable are recorded net of allowance for expected credit losses. The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal
course of business and performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers. The allowance is based upon an estimate of expected credit
losses over the life of outstanding receivables and involves an assessment of customer creditworthiness, historical payment experience,
an assumption of future expected credit losses, and the age of outstanding receivables. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the
Company’s allowance for expected credit losses was $
| 8 |
Inventories
Inventories are stated at a lower cost or net realizable value using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. The Company has four principal categories of inventory:
Equipment parts inventory - This inventory represents components and raw materials that are currently in the process of being converted to a certifiable lot of saleable products through the manufacturing and/or equipment assembly process. Inventories include parts and components that may be specialized in nature and subject to rapid obsolescence. The Company periodically reviews the quantities and carrying values of inventories to assess whether the inventories are recoverable. Because of the Company’s vertical integration, a significant or sudden decrease in sales activity could result in a significant change in the estimates of excess or obsolete inventory valuation. The costs associated with provisions for excess quantities, technological obsolescence, or component rejections are charged to the cost of sales as incurred.
Work in process inventory - Work in process inventory consists of inventory that is partially manufactured or not fully assembled as of the date of these financial statements. This equipment, machines, parts, frames, lasers and assemblies are items not ready for use or resale. Costs are accumulated as work in process until sales ready items are compete when it is moved to finished goods inventory. Amounts in this account represent items at various stages of completion at the date of these financial statements.
Finished goods inventory - Finished goods inventory consists of inventory that is complete and ready for commercial application without further cost other than delivery and setup. Finished goods inventory includes items that have been purchased in finished form as well as units that have been fully manufactured or assembled by the Company through its production process. Finished goods inventory includes demo and other equipment, lasers, software, machines, parts or assemblies..
Consignment inventory – Consignment inventory held at third-party locations is included in inventories on the accompanying balance sheets and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company retains title to consignment inventory until the inventory is sold to an end customer.
On March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively, our inventories consisted of the following:

Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period.
| 9 |
Depreciation
is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes.
The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. Depreciation expense for the
periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $

Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived
assets, other than goodwill and indefinite-lived assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (“triggering
events”) indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment is measured by comparing the carrying value of the
long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from use of the assets and their ultimate disposition.
An impairment loss, equal to the difference between the asset’s fair value and its carrying value, is recognized when the estimated
future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying amount.
Intangible Assets
The Company has certain intangible assets that were initially recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition. The finite-lived intangible assets consist of trademarks and operational software and website. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of ten years.
The Company reviews all finite-lived
intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If the carrying
value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess carrying value over the fair
value in our consolidated statements of operations. During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no indicators of
impairment were identified and no impairment was recorded, related to the Company’s intangible assets. Amortization expenses
for the period ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 amounted to $
| 10 |
Warrants
The Company issues warrants in conjunction with its capital raise activities. The fair value of a warrant is calculated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect as of the grant date. The expected dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts and is assumed to be zero. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, calculated utilizing a look-back period approximately equal to the contractual life of the stock option being granted. The expected life of the stock option is calculated as the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual term (the “simplified method”). The fair market value of the common stock is determined by reference to the quoted market price of the common stock on the grant date. The expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that warrants are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior; the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common stock; the expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future; and the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option award.
Management evaluates warrants under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including ASC 815-40 applicable to contracts in an entity’s own equity.
Revenue Recognition
Under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and determine those that are performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company also earns revenue through affiliate arrangements. These contracts are evaluated under ASC 606 using the same five-step model. Affiliate revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligations under the affiliate agreement, which typically occurs when the affiliate completes a qualifying transaction or when the Company provides agreed-upon services. The transaction price is determined based on the contractual terms with the affiliate, and revenue is recorded in the amount the Company expects to receive.
Revenue is then recognized for the transaction price allocated to each respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. For our products, revenue is generally recognized upon shipment or pickup by the customer. At this stage, the title on the manufactured equipment is transferred to the customer, and the customer is responsible for transportation expenses, insurance, and any transport-related damage to the equipment in transit. We do not have any obligation to deliver beyond the collection warehouse, and it is the customers’ contractual responsibility to ensure their goods reach their destination. Revenue is recognized when control transfers in accordance with contractual terms.
For certain CMS projects that are customized in nature and expected to extend beyond six months, the Company recognizes revenue over time using a percentage-of-completion method. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on progress toward completion, which is generally measured based on costs incurred relative to total estimated project costs.
Refunds and returns, which are minimal, are recorded as a reduction of revenue. Payments received from customers before satisfying the above criteria are recorded as unearned income on the combined balance sheets.
Payments received as deposits for specific purchase orders or future laser equipment sales to customers are recognized as customer deposits and included in liabilities on the balance sheet. Customer deposits are recognized as revenue when control over the ordered equipment is transferred to the customer.
All revenues are reported net of any sales discounts or taxes.
| 11 |
Deferred revenue primarily consists of customer deposits received for orders not yet initiated or for advance billing arrangements not yet recognized under ASC 606. Contract liabilities primarily represent billings and cash collections related to performance obligations for which revenue recognition criteria have not yet been satisfied. Management evaluates balances each reporting period to ensure classification remains appropriate.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Given
the nature of the revenue recognition process, the Company generates contract liabilities (to the extent that a customer pays on project
progress before the Company fulfills its performance obligations under a contract) or contract assets (to the extent that the Company
has earned by satisfying performance obligations but has not yet billed the customer). Contract assets represent a right to receive payment
in the future once certain conditions are met per the terms of the contract. The balance of contract assets and liabilities as of March
31, 2026 were $
Other Revenue Recognition Matters related to Distributors.
Distributors generally have no right to return unsold equipment. However, in limited circumstances, if the Company determines that distributor stock is commercially obsolete beyond the Company’s new model releases, it may accept returns and provide the distributor with credit against their trading account at the Company’s discretion under its warranty policy. This revenue is recognized on a consignment basis and transfer of control is when an item is sold to end customer at which time the Company recognizes revenue, except where contractual terms require transfer upon end-customer sale.
Share Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees, non-employees, and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to the terms established at the grant’s issuance date. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as an expense in the statement of operations ratably over the requisite service period or vesting period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees occurs in the same period and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.
The Company values its equity awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and accounts for forfeitures when they occur. Use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term, and a risk-free interest rate. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, calculated utilizing a look-back period approximately equal to the contractual life of the stock option being granted. The expected life of the stock option is calculated as the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual term (the “simplified method”). The risk-free interest rate is estimated using comparable published federal funds rates.
Derivatives and Liability-Classified Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities as their fair values were determined by using a Binomial pricing model. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting date, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in the statement of operations.
To determine the number of authorized but unissued shares available to satisfy outstanding convertible securities, the Company uses a sequencing method to prioritize its convertible securities as prescribed by ASC 815-40-35, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40-35). At each reporting date, the Company reviews its convertible securities to determine their classification is appropriate.
| 12 |
Lease
The Company leases certain corporate office space under lease agreements. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract is a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. Control is determined based on the right to obtain all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. Operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments. Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in the general and administrative line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s operating lease arrangements did not materially change during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Accordingly, the disclosures required under ASC 842 should be read in conjunction with the lease disclosures included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Income Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method and establishes a valuation allowance when it is more likely than
not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company did not recognize an income tax benefit for the three months ended March
31, 2026 or March 31, 2025. Net operating losses generated during the three months ended March 31, 2026 resulted in a material increase
in the gross deferred tax asset and corresponding valuation allowance from December 31, 2025. Following reassessment of all available
evidence, management concluded that a full valuation allowance remains appropriate as of March 31, 2026. The effective tax rate was
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the earnings (loss) attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings (loss) of the Company. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) available to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period and dilutive potential shares outstanding unless such dilutive potential shares would result in anti-dilution. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company excluded outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. No such potentially dilutive securities were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

NOTE 3 – ASSET ACQUISITION FROM COMMON CONTROLLED ENTITY
On March 31, 2025, ICT Investments, LLC (“ICT”),
an affiliated company under common control, acquired inventories and machinery and equipment from ARCH Cutting Tools – Flushing,
LLC (“ARCH”), related to their Beamer Laser Marking Systems (“Beamer”) product line, for total cash consideration
of $
The purchased assets were subsequently transferred to Fonon Quantum Technologies, Inc. (“FQTI”), an affiliate of both ICT and the Company.
On August 5, 2025, the Company acquired inventories and machinery and equipment associated with the Beamer Laser Marking Systems product line from FQTI.
Because the transaction was between entities under common control, the acquisition was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805-50, Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control. The acquired assets are recognized at their historical carrying amounts rather than at fair value, and no goodwill was recorded. The results of operations attributable to the acquired Beamer assets are included in the Company’s consolidated results for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Comparative prior-period financial statements were not restated.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Report.
Certain statements in this Report constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements which involve risks and uncertainties, regarding, among other things, (a) our projected sales, profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategy, (c) anticipated trends in our industry, (d) our future financing plans, and (e) our anticipated needs for, and use of, working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend,” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. Considering these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except to the extent required by federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
The “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” are references to the business of Laser Photonics Corporation, a Delaware corporation.
Overview
We are a vertically integrated manufacturing Company for photonics based industrial products and solutions, primarily disruptive laser cleaning technologies and applications for the pharmaceutical industry. Our vertically integrated operations allow us to reduce development and advanced laser equipment manufacturing time, offer better prices, control quality and protect our proprietary knowhow and technology compared to other laser cleaning companies and companies with competing technologies.
In 2025, we expanded our product portfolio through the acquisition of Beamer Laser Marking Systems, formerly the laser capital equipment division of ARCH Cutting Tools. Beamer’s IR fiber and CO₂ laser marking systems significantly expand our product offering into high-value industrial marking applications such as serialization, UID marking, medical devices, aerospace traceability, automotive components, and firearms compliance. The Beamer acquisition also provides an established customer base and IP portfolio. The Company has integrated the Beamer assets into its operations and is actively fulfilling orders for both existing and new customers. The revenue contribution from Beamer is expected to increase meaningfully beginning in the third quarter of 2026 and beyond as the Company scales production and expands its customer pipeline in the industrial marking and traceability markets.
Our principal executive offices are located at 250 Technology Park, Lake Mary FL, 32746, and our telephone number is (407) 804 1000. Our website address is www.laserphotonics.com. The Company’s annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to such reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and other information related to the Company, are available, free of charge, on that website as soon as we electronically file those documents with, or otherwise furnish them to, the SEC. The Company’s website and the information contained therein, or connected thereto, are not and are not intended to be incorporated into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We intend to continue to stay ahead of the technology curve by researching and developing cutting edge products and technologies for both large and small businesses. We view the small companies as an attractive market opportunity since they were previously unable to take advantage of laser processing equipment due to high prices, significant operating costs and the technical complexities of laser equipment. As a result, we are developing an array of laser cleaning equipment that we have named the CleanTech™ product line, which we believe represents a new generation of high-power laser cleaning systems applicable to numerous material processing operations.
Factors and Trends That Affect Our Operations and Financial Results
In reading our financial statements, you should be aware of the following factors and trends that our management believes are important in understanding our financial performance.
Beamer integration and expected synergies. With the Beamer acquisition, the Company expects near-term integration costs related to engineering alignment, supply chain consolidation, and facility relocation. Management anticipates long-term synergies through shared manufacturing resources, cross-selling opportunities, and expanded participation in regulated industries requiring permanent laser marking solutions.
Supply Chain. We are experiencing increased lead times for certain parts and components purchased from third party suppliers; particularly electronic components. We, our customers and our suppliers, continue to face constraints related to supply chain and logistics, including availability of capacity, materials, air cargo space, sea containers and higher freight rates and import duties. Supply chain and logistics constraints are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and could impact on our ability to supply products and our customers’ demand for our product or readiness to accept deliveries. Notwithstanding these effects, we believe we can meet the near-term demand for our products, but the situation is fluid and subject to change.
Nasdaq Listing Compliance. On May 21, 2026, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC indicating non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) due to the delayed filing of this Quarterly Report. The notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock. As of the filing date of this Quarterly Report, the Company believes it has regained compliance with the Listing Rule.
Net sales. Our net sales have historically fluctuated from quarter to quarter. The increase or decrease in sales from a prior quarter can be affected by the timing of orders received from customers, the shipment, installation and acceptance of products at our customers’ facilities. Net sales can be affected by the time taken to qualify our products for use in new applications in the end markets that we serve. Our sales cycle varies substantially, ranging from a period of a few weeks to as long as one year or more, but is typically several months. The adoption of our products by a new customer or qualification in a new application can lead to an increase in net sales for a period which may then slow until we penetrate new markets or obtain new customers.
| 19 |
Our business depends substantially upon capital expenditures by end users, particularly by manufacturers using our products for materials processing, which includes general manufacturing, automotive including electric vehicles (EV), other transportation, aerospace, heavy industry, consumer, semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and electronics. Although applications within materials processing are broad, the capital equipment market in general is cyclical and historically has experienced sudden and severe downturns. For the foreseeable future, our operations will continue to depend upon capital expenditures by end users of materials processing equipment and will be subject to the broader fluctuations of capital equipment spending.
Gross margin. Our total gross margin in any period can be significantly affected by several factors, including net sales, production volumes, competitive factors, product mix, and by other factors such as changes in foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar. Many of these factors are not under our control. The following are examples of factors affecting gross margin:
● As our products mature, we can experience additional competition which tends to decrease average selling prices and affects gross margin.
● Our gross margin can be significantly affected by product mix. Within each of our product categories, the gross margin is generally higher for devices with greater average power. These higher power products often have better performance, more difficult specifications to attain and fewer competing products in the marketplace.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel-related costs, professional fees, insurance, SEC filing and compliance costs, public company expenses, and corporate overhead.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, advertising and promotional activities, customer acquisition efforts, travel, and commercial support functions..
Research and development expenses. We plan to continue to invest in research and development to improve our existing laser blasting technology and equipment and develop new products, systems and applications. We believe that these investments will sustain our position as a leader in the laser industry and will support the development of new products that can address new markets and growth opportunities. The amount of research and development expenses we incur may vary from period to period.
Results of Operations
Revenue. Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $915,553, compared to $2,290,282 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $1,374,729, or 60%. The decrease was primarily attributable to (i) lower equipment deliveries during the current period, and (ii) timing of customer purchasing decisions, project execution schedules, and revenue recognition milestones. Revenue may fluctuate from period to period based on customer purchasing cycles, project timing, equipment delivery schedules, and product mix.
| 20 |
Cost of Sales / Gross Profit (Loss). Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $1,304,004, compared to $1,389,791 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $85,787, or 6.2%. Despite the reduction in cost of sales, the significant decline in net sales resulted in a gross loss of $388,451 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, reflecting a negative gross margin of 42.4%, compared to gross profit of $900,491 and a gross margin of 39.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The deterioration in gross margin was primarily attributable to lower revenue volume and the resulting inability to absorb fixed manufacturing overhead and production costs, reduced production throughput, and changes in product mix during the current period. Gross margins may fluctuate from period to period depending on sales volume, manufacturing utilization, customer mix, and timing of product deliveries..
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $621,454, compared to $674,582 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $53,128, or 7.9%. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, advertising, promotional activities, customer acquisition efforts, travel, and commercial support functions. The decrease reflects lower discretionary marketing and travel expenditures during the period, consistent with the Company’s ongoing focus on cost management.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $1,638,833, compared to $1,634,965 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, remaining substantially consistent with the prior-year period.
Research and Development Costs. Research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $127,081, compared to $163,469 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $36,388, or 22.3%. Research and development activities remain focused on enhancing existing laser cleaning technologies and equipment and developing new products, systems, and applications. The Company expects research and development expenditures to fluctuate based on project timing, product development priorities, and resource allocation.
Operating Loss. Operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $2,775,819, compared to $1,572,525 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $1,203,294, or 76.5%. The increase in operating loss was primarily attributable to lower revenue and the resulting gross loss during the current period, combined with a significant increase in general and administrative expenses driven by financing-related transaction costs and expanded public company operating costs, partially offset by modest decreases in sales and marketing and research and development costs.
Interest Expenses, Net. Interest expenses, net for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $384,851, compared to $99,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase reflects interest accrued on the Company’s outstanding debt obligations during the quarter, including notes payable and related party borrowings outstanding during the period.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability The change in fair value of derivative liability resulted in a gain of $214,386 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The gain reflects a decrease in the estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative liability associated with the Hudson financing arrangement, driven by changes in the underlying valuation inputs during the quarter.
Total Other Expense. Total other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $170,465, compared to $108,198 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $62,267, or 57.5%. Other expense during the current period consisted of net interest expense of $384,851 on the Company’s outstanding debt obligations, partially offset by a gain of $214,386 recognized from the change in fair value of the Company’s remaining derivative liability associated with the Hudson financing arrangement. The increase compared to the prior-year period was primarily attributable to higher interest expense resulting from the Company’s increased borrowing activity during the quarter, partially offset by the derivative fair value gain.
Net Loss. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $2,946,284, or $(0.11) per basic and diluted share and $(0.16) per share attributable to common shareholders after deducting the deemed dividend of $1,512,480, compared to net loss of $1,680,723, or $(0.12) per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $1,265,561, or 75%. The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to lower revenues, negative gross margin performance, and higher interest expense incurred in connection with the Company’s outstanding debt obligations during the quarter, partially offset by the gain recognized from the change in fair value of the derivative liability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following is a summary of the Company’s cash flows provided and (and used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the three-month periods ended on March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025.
| Three Months Ended March 31 | ||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | |||||||
| Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (1,842,774 | ) | $ | (1,157,220 | ) | ||
| Net cash used in investing activities | (97,974 | ) | (22,560 | ) | ||||
| Net cash provided by financing activities | 2,918,009 | 825,000 | ||||||
| Net cash increase (decrease) for period | 977,261 | (354,780 | ) | |||||
| Cash at the beginning of period | 650,339 | 533,871 | ||||||
| Cash at end of period | $ | 1,627,600 | $ | 179,091 | ||||
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash of $1,627,600, total current assets of $4,530,096, and total current liabilities of $8,514,918. The Company’s working capital deficit was $3,984,822, compared with a working capital deficit of $7,344,637 as of December 31, 2025. The improvement in working capital was primarily attributable to financing transactions completed during the quarter and subsequent debt reduction activities.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,842,774 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $1,157,220 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Operating cash outflows during the current period were primarily driven by the Company’s net loss of $2,946,284, partially offset by non-cash items including depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of deferred financing costs, changes in fair value of derivative liabilities, and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Working capital changes included movements in accounts receivable, inventories, contract liabilities, deferred revenue, and accounts payable.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $97,974 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $22,560 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Investing activity during the current period primarily consisted of purchases of property and equipment.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,918,009 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $825,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Financing activity during the current period was primarily attributable to proceeds from the Company’s February 2026 public offering, proceeds received from warrant exercises and warrant inducement transactions, and borrowings under financing arrangements. These inflows were partially offset by offering and transaction costs, repayments of outstanding debt obligations, and repayments of related-party borrowings. Financing transactions completed during the quarter strengthened liquidity and contributed to the improvement in working capital during the period.
The Company continues to require additional liquidity to support operations, strategic initiatives, and working capital requirements. Management expects to continue evaluating debt and equity financing alternatives to support future operations and growth objectives. While management believes additional actions are available to improve liquidity, there can be no assurance that financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
| 22 |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026, the Company did not maintain any material off-balance sheet arrangements, including obligations under guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, obligations under certain derivative instruments, or obligations arising from variable interest entities.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is not required to provide the information required by this Item. Notwithstanding this exemption, the Company provides the following disclosure.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s debt obligations primarily bear fixed interest rates and management does not believe changes in market interest rates had a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Derivative Instruments and Foreign Currency Risk
The Company has outstanding warrants that were evaluated under ASC 815-40. With the exception of the warrant issued to Hudson Global Ventures, LLC, which is classified as a derivative liability and carried at fair value of $124,516 as of March 31, 2026, all remaining outstanding warrants are classified as equity instruments and are not accounted for as derivative liabilities.
We do not currently have any sales or own assets and operate facilities in countries outside the United States and, consequently, we are not affected by foreign currency fluctuations or exchange rate changes. Overall, we believe that our exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate changes is not material to our financial condition or results of operations. as of March 31, 2026.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).
Management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026, due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, which were previously identified and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and which have not yet been fully remediated.
Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, management identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, each of which remained unremediated as of March 31, 2026:
| ● | Continuing Weakness: The system of internal controls failed to identify multiple journal entries that were identified by the external auditor. | |
| ● | Continuing Weakness: Lack of a formal control process related to the identification and approval of related party transactions. |
| 23 |
| ● | Continuing Weakness: The Company is not able to fully maintain segregation of duties within its financial operations due to its reliance on limited personnel in the finance function. | |
| ● | Continuing Weakness: As a smaller company, the Company lacks sufficient resources to perform the internal audit function. | |
| ● | Continuing Weakness: Documentation of all proper accounting procedures is not yet complete. |
Remediation Activities
Management continued to implement remediation activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 intended to address the material weaknesses described above, including: (i) enhancing financial close and reporting processes by implementing additional levels of review over manual journal entries, formalizing account reconciliation procedures, and requiring documented supervisory approval of all non-routine and significant adjustments; (ii) adopting and enforcing a formal written policy and control framework for the identification, review, approval, and disclosure of related party transactions, including periodic related-party questionnaires and review by the Audit Committee; and (iii) strengthening the finance and internal control environment by augmenting finance personnel and reassigning responsibilities to improve segregation of duties, engaging qualified third-party professionals to assist with internal audit-type procedures and ongoing monitoring where internal resources are limited, and completing and maintaining comprehensive documentation of key accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls. Management will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these remediation efforts.
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described above, management performed additional review and validation procedures, including expanded technical accounting review and executive-level review of significant financing and equity transactions, and concluded that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Except for remediation activities associated with the previously identified material weaknesses described above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
