Debt
Current report
Please see Notes 11 and 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a description of the terms of our outstanding debt.
Current report
Asset Acquisitions. Acquisitions of assets that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for using the cost accumulation and allocation model. The cost accumulation and allocation model requires us to measure the assets acquired based on their cost, which is then allocated to the assets on a relative fair value basis. The cost of the assets includes direct acquisition-related costs such as fees paid to external advisors, attorneys, and accountants. When the cost of the acquired assets is greater than the fair value of the group, the excess cost is allocated to the nonfinancial assets acquired. Contingent consideration included in an asset acquisition is first assessed as to whether it qualifies as a derivative instrument. If it does, we would measure the contingent consideration at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. If the contingent consideration is not a derivative instrument, we will recognize the contingent consideration when it is probable and estimable and subsequent changes are recorded as adjustments to the carrying amount of the assets acquired. Determining the fair value of assets acquired, for purposes of allocating cost based on their relative fair values, requires management to use significant judgment and estimates including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. Estimates of fair value are based on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from those estimates.
Current report
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment and intangible assets. Long-lived assets are tested for impairment when events and circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired by first comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of the asset or asset group to the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized based on the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. As a result of the analysis, we recognized an impairment loss of $261,250 in general and administrative expenses on our customer relationship intangible asset during the year ended June 30, 2025. No other long-lived assets were determined to be impaired for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Subsequent evaluations will be performed annually on June 30, per our policy.

Distributor Agreement
Previous report
On September 10, 2024, we entered into a sole distributorship agreement with Consensus B.V., pursuant to which Consensus B.V. will act as sole distributor of our products in the European Union, United Kingdom, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates. The agreement is for a term of five years and may be terminated by either party upon not less than four months’ notice; provided that either party may terminate the agreement immediately upon a substantial breach of the agreement, as more particularly described in the agreement.
Previous report
We believe that reviewing our operating results for the year ended June 30, 2023, by combining the results of the successor period (October 17, 2022 to June 30, 2023) and the predecessor period (July 1, 2022 to October 16, 2022) is more useful in discussing our overall operating performance compared to the results of the year ended June 30, 2024 (successor). We do not see any potential risks associated with utilizing this combined presentation.
Previous report
Revenue. We generate revenue from sales of our cleaning products. Our revenue decreased by $836,383, or 34.26%, to $1,604,973 for the year ended June 30, 2024 from $2,441,356 for the year ended June 30, 2023. This reduction in revenue was primarily due to the fact that our previous largest customer decided to make its own units instead of ordering from us commencing at the start of calendar year 2023. Revenue to this customer declined by 96% during the fiscal year, which represented over 80% of total revenue decline. The remaining decline is the result of management’s strategy of shifting focus to selling at higher margins direct to end users instead of selling through regional distribution groups at lower margins.

Business Combinations. Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The fair value of total purchase consideration is allocated to the fair values of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the remaining amount being classified as goodwill. All assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed in a business combination are recorded at their fair values at the date of acquisition. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgment and estimates including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. Estimates of fair value are based on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from those estimates. During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill. At the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the statements of operations. Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in our statements of operations.

As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales decreased from 70.09% for the year ended June 30, 2023 to 50.42% for the year ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to our strategy of selling direct to end users instead of selling via regional distribution groups.

Our cost of sales increased by $277,208, or 34.26%, to $1,086,369 for the year ended June 30, 2025 from $809,161 for the year ended June 30, 2024. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales increased from 50.42% for the year ended June 30, 2024 to 52.41% for the year ended June 30, 2025.

The following discussion relates to critical accounting policies for our company. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Intangible Assets. Intangible assets primarily consist of existing technology, customer relationships, and trademarks obtained as a result of the acquisition on October 17, 2022. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized based on their pattern of economic benefit over their estimated useful lives and reviewed periodically for impairment. Our trademarks are deemed to have an indefinite life. The estimated useful life of the acquired technology is 15 years while the estimated useful life of the customer relationships is 5 years.

Stock-based Compensation. Compensation expense is recognized for all share-based payments to employees and nonemployees, including stock options, restricted stock awards, and warrants, in the statements of operation based on the fair value of the awards that are granted. As necessary, our stock price at the date of grant was estimated using an acceptable valuation technique such as the probability-weighted expected return model. The fair value of stock options and warrants are estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the fair market value of our class B common stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense for restricted stock awards with performance-based vesting conditions is calculated based on the number of awards that are expected to vest during the performance period if it is probable that the performance metrics will be achieved. Generally, measured compensation cost, net of actual forfeitures, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the related share-based compensation award. We account for forfeitures of stock-based awards as they occur.
