Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of the inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, with a company have been prevented or detected on a timely basis. Even disclosure controls and procedures determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance that their objectives are achieved.
As of December 31, 2025, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective at the reasonable assurance level.
Our size has prevented us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation. Therefore, it is difficult to effectively segregate accounting duties which comprises a material weakness in internal controls. We also lack effective board oversight and formal accounting controls for the timely and accurate closing of financial information.
To the extent reasonably possible given our limited resources, we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned weaknesses, including, but not limited to, increasing the capacity of our qualified financial personnel to ensure that accounting policies and procedures are consistent across the organization and that we have adequate control over our Exchange Act reporting disclosures.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management utilized the criteria established in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) to conduct an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have identified a material weakness due to lack of segregation of duties and have therefore concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to existence of following material weaknesses:
Segregation of Duties. Our size has prevented us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties. It is therefore difficult to effectively segregate accounting duties, which constitutes a material weakness in internal controls.
Insufficient Accounting and Financial Reporting Personnel. The Company lacks sufficient financial reporting and accounting personnel with appropriate knowledge of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and SEC reporting requirements. This deficiency has resulted in errors and adjustments identified during the audit process for the year ended December 31, 2025, and increases the risk that material misstatements in the consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in our internal controls over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The Company is implementing measures designed to improve its internal control over financial reporting and remediate the identified material weaknesses, including the following:
| ● | Increasing the capacity of qualified financial personnel to ensure that accounting policies and procedures are consistent across the organization and that we have adequate controls over our Exchange Act reporting disclosures. |
| ● | Providing more regular training on an ongoing basis to our accounting personnel covering a broad range of U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting topics. |
| ● | Implementing enhanced review procedures over the financial statement close process and disclosures to reduce the risk of misstatement. |
There can be no assurance that these measures will be sufficient to remediate the identified material weaknesses or prevent future material weaknesses from arising.
As an emerging growth company, management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control procedures over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our year ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
