Usio, Inc.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Usio, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or "Usio") have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission" or the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form10-K for the year ended* December 31, 2024*, as filed with the Commission on* March 26, 2025 (the "2024 Annual Report"). Results of operations for interim periods arenot* necessarily indicative of results that* maybe expected for any other interim periods or the full fiscal year. References in this quarterly report to "the quarter" or the "third quarter" mean thethree* month period ended* September 30, 2025* or2024, as applicable unless otherwise noted.

Change in Accounting Policy:On December 31, 2024,we changed our policy for cash flows presentation purposes to include settlement processing assets as cash and cash equivalents consistent with the accounting treatment for other forms of cash assets held for customers and controlled by the Company. Additionally, we changed the presentation for prepaid card load obligations on the statement of cash flows from an operating activity to a financing activity, and the amount is now characterized within "assets held for customers". Per Accounting Standards Codification230 and related interpretations, funds held on behalf of others can be reported as either operating activities or financing activities within the statement of cash flows depending on the obligations surrounding the funds being held. Upon further assessment of changes in our operations over time, it was determined that reflecting these activities as assets held for customers within financing activities provides a more predictable measure of operating cash flows. Accordingly, this change in presentation is accounted for retrospectively, with each comparable period being revised to reflect such change in presentation. As a result of the retrospective change in presentation of prepaid card load obligations to be included as a component of assets held for customers, operating cash flows for thenine months ended* September 30, 2024* were increased by $9.5 million with a corresponding decrease in assets held for customers reflected as a financing activity. The election to include settlement processing assets as part of cash and cash equivalents increased assets held for customers by $14.6 million. This policy change hadno effect on working capital, total assets, total liabilities, total equity or net loss as of, and for thenine months ended* September 30, 2025*.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and other money market instruments. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

Settlement Processing Assets and Obligations: Settlement processing assets and obligations represent intermediary balances arising in the Company's settlement process for merchants. The Company earns interest on these underlying processing assets, which is recognized as revenue in the Automated Clearing House, or ACH, and complementary services business line.

Prepaid Card Load Assets: The Company maintains pre-funding accounts for its customers to facilitate prepaid card loads as initiated by its customers. These prepaid card load assets are carried on the Company's balance sheet with a corresponding liability. The Company earns interest on these prepaid card load assets and obligations, which is recognized as revenue in the prepaid card services business line.

Customer Deposits: The Company holds customer deposits primarily for postage expenses to ensure the Company isnot out of pocket for amounts billed daily by the United States Postal Service, or USPS. These customer deposits are carried on the Company's balance sheet with a corresponding liability. The Company earns interest on these customer deposits, which is recognized as revenue in the business line of the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Usio Output Solutions, Inc., or Output Solutions.

Merchant Reserves: The Company has merchant reserve requirements associated with ACH transactions. The merchant reserve assets are carried on the Company's balance sheet with a corresponding liability. Merchant Reserves are set for each merchant. Funds are collected from each merchant and held as collateral to minimize contingent liabilities associated with any losses that* mayoccur under the merchant agreement. While this cash isnot* restricted in its use, the Company believes that designating this cash to collateralize Merchant Reserves strengthens its fiduciary standing with the Company's member sponsors and is in accordance with the guidelines set by the card networks. The Company earns interest on these Merchant Reserves, which is recognized as revenue in its ACH and complementary services business line.

Accounts Receivable/Allowance for Estimated Credit Losses: Accounts receivable are reported as outstanding principal net of an allowance for estimated credit losses of $324,000 at* September 30, 2025* and* December 31, 2024*.

The Company maintains an allowance for estimated credit losses representing estimated losses expected to result from the inability or failure of its customers to make required payments. The Company determines the allowance based on an account-by-account review, taking into consideration such factors as the age of the outstanding balance, historical pattern of collections and financial condition of the customer. Past losses incurred by the Company due to credit losses have been within its estimates. If the financial condition of its customers deteriorates, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make contractual payments, additional allowances might be required. Estimates for credit losses are variable based on the volume of transactions processed and could increase or decrease accordingly. The Company normally doesnot charge interest on accounts receivable.

Inventory: Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. At* September 30, 2025* and* December 31, 2024*, inventory consisted primarily of printing and paper supplies used for Output Solutions.

Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three toten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated useful lives or remaining lease period. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Accounting for Internal Use Software: The Company capitalizes the costs associated with software being developed or obtained for internal use until both the preliminary project stage is substantially completed and it is probable that computer software being developed will be completed and placed in service. Capitalized costs include only (i) external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software, (ii) payroll and other related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal-use software project, and (iii) interest costs incurred, when material, while developing internal-use software. The Company ceases capitalization of such costsno later than the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. During thenine months ended* September 30, 2025and2024*, the Company capitalized software costs of $846,375 and $575,882, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk: Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. The Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent account balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC, which is*$250,000.* Accounts receivable potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. The Company’s customer base operates in a variety of industries and is geographically dispersed. The Company closely monitors extensions of credit. Estimated credit losses have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Recent credit losses have been within management's expectations. No single customer accounted for more than10% of revenues in2025 or2024.

Valuation and Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets: The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived and intangible assets at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value* maynot* be recoverable. Factors considered important, which could trigger an impairment review, include the following: significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future cash flows; significant changes in the manner of use of the assets or the strategy of the overall business; and significant negative industry trends. When management determines that the carrying value of long-lived and intangible assets* maynot* be recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized, which is measured as the excess of the assets’ carrying value over the estimated fair value (with the estimated fair value determined based upon the estimated future cash inflows attributable to the asset, less estimated future cash outflows). No impairment losses were recorded in2024 or during thenine months ended* September 30, 2025*. Management isnot aware of any impairment charges that* may*currently be required; however, the Company cannot predict the occurrence of events that might adversely affect the reported values in the future.

Fair Value Measurements: The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized inone of the following levels:

• Level1 inputs - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date;

• Level2 inputs - other than quoted prices included in Level1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

• Level3 inputs - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs arenot available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Reserve for Processing Losses:If, due to insolvency or bankruptcy ofone of the Company’s merchant customers, or for any other reason, the Company isnot able to collect amounts from its credit card, ACH or prepaid customers that have been properly "charged back" by the customer, or if a prepaid cardholder incurs a negative balance, the Company must bear the credit risk for the full amount of the transaction. The Company* mayrequire cash deposits and other types of collateral from certain merchants to minimize any such risks. In addition, the Company utilizes multiple systems and procedures to manage merchant risk. ACH, prepaid and credit card merchant processing loss reserves are primarily determined by performing a historical analysis of the Company’s loss experience, considering other factors that could affect that experience in the future, such as the types of transactions processed and nature of the merchant relationship with its consumers and the Company’s relationship with the Company’s prepaid card holders. This reserve amount is subject to the risk that actual losses maybe greater than the Company’s estimates. Estimates for processing losses are variable based on the volume of transactions processed and could increase or decrease accordingly. At September 30, 2025* and* December 31, 2024*, the Company’s reserve for processing losses was $751,937 and $897,116, respectively, which is recorded on the Company's balance sheet as an accrued expense, and in the statement of cash flows as a change in accrued expenses.

Revenue Recognition: Revenue (other than for Output Solutions) consists primarily of fees generated through the electronic processing of payment transactions and related services. Revenue is recognized during the period in which the transactions are processed or when the related services are performed. The Company complies with ASC606-10 and reports revenues at gross as a principal versus net as an agent. Although some of the Company's processing agreements vary with respect to specific credit risks, the Company has determined for each agreement that it is acting in the principal role. Merchants* maybe charged for these processing services at a bundled rate based on a percentage of the dollar amount of each transaction and, in some instances, additional fees are charged for each transaction. Certain merchant customers are charged a flat fee per transaction, while others mayalso be charged miscellaneous fees, including fees for chargebacks or returns, monthly minimums, and other miscellaneous services. Revenues derived from electronic processing of credit, debit, and prepaid card transactions that are authorized and captured throughthird*-party networks are reported gross of amounts paid to sponsor banks as well as interchange and assessments paid to credit card associations. Certain card distributors remit payment of fees earned45 days after the end of the processing period. Prepaid card distributors have payment terms of30 days following the end of the month. Sales taxes billed are reported directly as a liability to the taxing authority and arenot included in revenue. Output Solutions provides bill preparation, presentment and mailing services. Revenue from Output Solutions is recognized when the related services are performed for printing and delivered to USPS for postage. We also earn revenues from interest and fees earned on certain assets underlying customer balances. Interest earned on assets directly related to our core business line operations are recorded in the revenue source underlying the associated customer balances. Customer balances held on which the Company earns interest revenues include balances from our ACH and complementary services, prepaid card services, and Output Solutions business lines.

The following table presents the Company's consolidated revenues by source:

Legal Proceedings:In addition to the legal proceedings disclosed in this quarterly report, the Company maybe involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in the legal proceedings disclosed in this quarterly report or other matters that* mayarise from time to time may*harm our business.

*Accounting for Income Taxes:*Our annual tax rate is based on our income, statutory tax rates, and available tax planning opportunities. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective government taxing authority. Significant judgement is required in determining our tax expense and in evaluating our tax positions, including evaluating uncertainties. We review our tax positions yearly and adjust the balances as new information becomes available.

Deferred tax assets represent amounts available to reduce income taxes payable on taxable income in future years. Such assets arise because of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, as well as from net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. We evaluate the recoverability of these future tax deductions and credits by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including reversal of taxable temporary differences, forecasted operating earnings, and available tax planning strategies. These rely heavily on estimates that are based on a number of factors, including historical data, and business forecasts. To the extent deferred tax assets arenot expected to be realized, we record a valuation allowance.

We recognize and measure uncertain tax positions in accordance with GAAP, pursuant to which we only recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely thannot that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities.

As with all businesses, the Company’s tax returns are subject to periodic examination. The Company’s federal returns for the past four years remain open to examination. The Company is subject to the Texas franchise tax and Tennessee franchise tax. Management isnot aware of any tax positions that would have a significant impact on its financial position.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB, the SEC or other standard setting bodies that donot require adoption until a future date arenot expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Reclassifications:We have reclassified certain prior period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in order to be consistent with the current period presentation. These reclassifications hadno effect on net income, total assets, total liabilities or equity.

Note4. Loans

Equipment Loans

On* March 20, 2021,the Company entered into a debt arrangement to finance $165,996 for the purchase of an Output Solutions sorter. The loan was for a period of 36 months with a maturity date of March 20, 2024and annual interest of 3.95%. Monthly principal and interest payments were required in the amount of $4,902. Principal payments for thethree* months ended* September 30, 2025* and2024 were $0. Principal payments for thenine months ended* September 30, 2025and2024* were $0 and $14,312, respectively, and are reflected on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This loan was paid in full on its maturity date.

On* October 1, 2023**,* the Company entered into a debt arrangement to finance $811,819 for the purchase of an Output Solutions folder and inserter. The loan is for a period of 66 months with a maturity date of* April 5, 2029and annual interest of 6.75%. Monthly principal and interest payments are required in the amount of $16,017, with monthly interest only payments in the amount of $4,744 required for thefirst* six months of the loan term. Total interest and principal payments on this folder and inserter equipment loan were $47,953 for each of thethree months ended* September 30, 2025* and* September 30, 2024*. Total interest and principal payments on this folder and inserter equipment loan were $143,859 for thenine months ended* September 30, 2025* and $98,121 for thenine months ended* September 30, 2024*.

On* September 19, 2025**,* the Company entered into a debt arrangement to finance $1,017,954 for the purchase of an Output Solutions printer. The loan is for a period of66 months with a maturity date of* March 19, 2031and annual interest of 6.75%. Monthly principal and interest payments are required in the amount of $20,088, with monthly interest only payments in the amount of $5,758 required for thefirst* six months of the loan term beginning in* October 2025.As of September 30, 2025,*only $226,212 in proceeds have been drawn from the loan and presented on the Company's balance sheet with the remaining commitment of $791,742 still available.

As of* September 30, 2025*, the Company maintained an undrawn line of credit and an outstanding letter of credit, both of which were established in connection with a bond required for the Company's appeal of the court’s decision in the KDHM lawsuit. See "Note11. Commitments and Contingencies" for further information.

Line of Credit

The Company has an unsecured revolving line of credit with a maximum borrowing capacity of $475,000. The facility was established on* May 29, 2024and matures on June 5, 2026.As of September 30, 2025*, no amounts had been drawn under this line of credit since its origination. This line of credit was obtained to support the bond requirement in the KDHM lawsuit appeal but remains fully available.

Letter of Credit

The Company has an irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of $474,229, issued on* June 3, 2024,with a maturity date of June 3, 2026.*This letter of credit was obtained as part of the bonding requirement for the KDHM lawsuit appeal and hasnot been drawn upon since its issuance.

These credit facilities were arranged to comply with legal requirements related to the Company’s KDHM lawsuit appeal and provide additional liquidity resources if needed. Management continues to monitor its financial position and believes that existing cash balances, along with these credit facilities, are sufficient to meet operational needs and legal obligations.

Future principal payments on current debt arrangements are as follows at* September 30, 2025*:

Note5. Stockholders' Equity

Stock Warrants: On* December**15,* 2020, the Company issued warrants to purchase 945,599 shares of the Company's common stock with an initial exercise price of $4.23 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the warrant agreement governing the warrants, to Information Management Solutions, LLC ("IMS"), which were issued in connection with our acquisition of substantially all of the assets of IMS in* December 2020.IMS's warrants became fully vested on December 15, 2023.Each warrant is exercisable for a period offive years beginning on the date it vested. At the time of issuance, these warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used were as follows: (i) the fair value of the underlying stock was$0.58 per share; (ii) the risk-free interest rate was 0.09%; (iii) the contractual life was 5 years; (iv) the dividend yield was 0%; and (v) the volatility was 59.9%. The fair value of the warrants at the time of issuance amounted to $552,283 and was recorded as an increase in the customer list asset and a corresponding amount to additional paid in capital. The amortization of these warrants, which is included in the total amortization expense of the customer list intangible asset, totaled $27,615 and $82,842 in each of thethree* andnine months ended* September 30, 2025and2024*, respectively.

Note6. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share (EPS) was computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS differs from basic EPS due to the assumed conversion of potentially dilutive awards and options that were outstanding during the period. Holders of unvested restricted stock awards have the right to receive nonforfeitable dividends on the same basis as common shares; therefore, unvested restricted stock is considered a participating security for the purpose of calculating EPS. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and diluted per share computations for net income (loss) for thethree andnine months ended* September 30, 2025* and2024.

The warrants to purchase shares of common stock that were outstanding at* September 30, 2025and2024* that werenot included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive, are as follows:

Note7. Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured by the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are computed with the presumption that they will be realizable in future periods when taxable income is generated. Predicting the ability to realize these assets in future periods requires judgment by management. GAAP prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Income tax benefits that meet the “more likely thannot” recognition threshold are recognized.

At* September 30, 2025* and* December 31, 2024*, the Company had a deferred tax asset of approximately $4.6 million net of a valuation allowance of approximately $2.7 million. Management considered the realizability of this asset in light of historical operating results and forecasted results, and determined that it was more likely thannot that the Company will have taxable income in the future sufficient to utilize the deferred tax asset. The Company reviews the assessment of the deferred tax asset and valuation allowance on an annual basis or more often when events indicate that a change to the valuation allowance* maybe warranted. If applicable, the Company will recognize interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense. As of September 30, 2025*, the Company hadno accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax provisions.

At* September 30, 2025*, the Company had available net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") of approximately $21.8 million. NOLs generated during or prior to2017 ("Pre-2018 NOLs") are available to offset taxable income of future periods and expire20 years after the loss was generated. NOLs generated after2017 donot expire. Our ability to use our NOLs will be dependent on our ability to generate taxable income, and the Pre-2018 NOLs could expire before we generate sufficient taxable income.

Pursuant to Sections382 and383 of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"), federal and state tax laws impose significant restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss and other tax carryforwards in the event of a change in ownership of the Company. The Company doesnot expect IRC Sections382 and383 to significantly impact the utilization of its NOLs and other tax carryforwards. If we were to experience an "ownership change," as determined under Section382 of the IRC, our ability to offset taxable income arising after the ownership change with NOLs generated prior to the ownership change would be limited, possibly substantially. An ownership change would establish an annual limitation on the amount of our pre-change NOLs we could utilize to offset our taxable income in any future taxable year to an amount generally equal to the value of our stock immediately prior to the ownership change multiplied by the long-term tax-exempt rate. In general, an ownership change will occur if there is a cumulative increase in our ownership of more than50 percentage points byone or more*"5%* shareholders" (as defined in the IRC) at any time during a rollingthree-year period.

12

The schedule below outlines when the Company's Pre-2018 NOLs were generated and the year they* may*expire.

As of* September 30, 2025*, there were NOLs totaling approximately $13.0 million that have been generated since the beginning of2018 that donot expire, and can be carried forward to future years to offset taxable income. The schedule below outlines when the Company's net operating losses for2018 and later years were generated.

Management isnot aware of any tax positions that would have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Note8. Related Party Transactions

Note9. Stock Based Compensation

In thenine months ended* September 30, 2025*, we withheld 128,647 shares of our common stock for $218,141 in private transactions based on an average purchase price of $1.70 per share from officers, directors and employees to cover their share of taxes in connection with equity grants. In thenine months ended* September 30, 2024*, we withheld 40,974 shares of our common stock for $65,317 in private transactions based on an average purchase price of $1.59 per share from officers, directors and employees to cover their share of taxes in connection with equity grants.

Legal Proceedings.

Ben Kauder, Nina Pioletti, & Triple Pay Play, Inc.

In2017, Usio acquired Singular Payments, Inc. (“Singular”), another payment processing company with offices in Nashville, Tennessee and St. Augustine, Florida.

Ben Kauder and Nina Pioletti were executives of Singular and, after the acquisition, Usio hired them as executive-level employees. Usio hired Kauder to serve as Senior Vice President of Integrated Payments, and Pioletti was hired to serve as Director of Sales. As a condition of employment, Kauder and Pioletti agreed to be bound by certain Usio policies, including as related to preserving the confidentiality of Usio’s proprietary information. As Usio executives, Kauder and Pioletti were afforded access to and contributed to the development of Usio’s trade secrets and other proprietary informationnot generally known by the public at large, including butnot limited to, financial information, marketing plans, cost and operational/strategic plans, and sales presentations.

In* May 2021,Kauder resigned from Usio followed by Pioletti in July**2022.* Thereafter, Kauder and Pioletti formed Triple Pay Play, another payment processing company which directly competes with Usio.

KDHM, LLC

On* September 1, 2021,KDHM, LLC ("KDHM"), an entity owned by the former owners of IMS, sued PDS Acquisition Corp, now known as Usio Output Solutions, Inc., in the73rd* District Court of Bexar County, Texas claiming a breach of the asset purchase agreement executed by the parties on* December 14, 2020.*The lawsuit alleges that due to a mistake, accident, or inadvertence, certain customer deposits in the amount of $317,000 were improperly transferred to us.

We believe that plaintiff's claims contradict the express terms of the asset purchase agreement, and we intend to continue to vigorously defend this matter. As a result of this post-sale dispute, we subsequently discovered that KDHM and its principals made certain misrepresentations and breached the terms of the asset purchase agreement.

On* September 28, 2021,we filed an answer generally denying the plaintiff’s allegations. On October 5, 2021,we filed a counterclaim andthird*-party petition. Therein, we allege that neither KDHM nor its principals disclosed that KDHM wasnot accounting for the customer deposits in accordance with GAAP. KDHM andthird-party defendants, its principals Henry Minten and Thomas Dowe, affirmatively represented and warranted in section3.1(e) of the asset purchase agreement that “[t]he Annual Financial Statements and the Interim Financial Statements have been prepared from the books and records of Seller in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.”

We subsequently discovered that KDHM by and through its principals failed to disclose that $305,000 in additional customer deposits existed and that these deposits werenot conveyed to us as required by the asset purchase agreement. We believe that KDHM, Minten and Dowe provided us with fraudulent and misleading financial statements that didnot disclose these additional customer deposits. KDHM and the defendants donot dispute that these additional customer deposits existed and that they were purchased by Usio. However, despite a written representation that these funds would be returned, KDHM and its principals have held these funds hostage. Section2.1(b)(x) of the asset purchase agreement provides that the purchased assets include “All of Seller’s deposits from its customers, including without limitation, those customer deposits listed on Schedule2.1(b)(xi) of the Disclosure Schedules.” Finally, we discovered that KDHM didnot provide us with all customer lists, which are identified as purchased assets under the agreement.

On* August 18, 2023,the judge granted a summary motion entitling KDHM to deposits for customer accounts that were printed and mailed prior to the acquisition, and Output Solutions was entitled to deposits for accounts that werenot* yet printed and printed butnot yet mailed prior to the acquisition. Usio has requested a reconsideration of the motion, as it doesnot consider that deposits are only owed to KDHM if they were earned and offset against accounts receivable.

On* March 4, 2024,the court held a hearing on KDHM’s Supplemental Rule166*(G) Motion and the court granted the motion in favor of KDHM. However, Usio believes the court erred in granting the motion and filed a motion for reconsideration on* March 19, 2024.*

On* March 28, 2024,the court heard Usio’s Motion for Reconsideration of Order Granting Plaintiff’s Supplemental Rule166*(g). On* May 2, 2024,the court denied Usio’s motion. On July 12, 2024,we filed an appeal on the lower court's decision. As part of the July 12, 2024appeal, Usio was required to obtain a bond in the amount of $474,229. See Note4* of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this report for more information.

On* April 2, 2025,the Fourth Court of Appeals reversed the trial court’s judgment and rendered judgement that KDHM should take nothing against Usio on its “money had and received claim.” With respect to the remaining claims, the court remanded back to the lower court. On April 11, 2025,KDHM filed a Motion for Reconsideration with the appellate court, which was denied on May 5, 2025.*

On* August 8, 2025,*KDHM filed in the Supreme Court of Texas a Petition for Review from the Fourth Court of Appeals at San Antonio, Texas. We are currently preparing a response to the petition.

We havenot recorded a contingency in relation to this case, as we consider the risk of loss remote as related to this lawsuit. The Company has an unsecured revolving line of credit with a maximum borrowing capacity of $475,000. The facility was established on* May 29, 2024,and matures on June 5, 2026.As of September 30, 2025,no amounts had been drawn under this line of credit since its origination. This line of credit was obtained to support the bond requirement in the KDHM lawsuit appeal but remains fully available. The Company also has an irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of $474,229, issued on June 3, 2024,with a maturity date of June 3, 2026.This letter of credit was obtained as part of the bonding requirement for the KDHM lawsuit appeal and hasnot* been drawn upon since its issuance.

These credit facilities were arranged to comply with legal requirements related to the Company’s appeal and provide additional liquidity resources if needed. Management continues to monitor its financial position and believes that existing cash balances, along with these credit facilities, are sufficient to meet operational needs and legal obligations.

Other proceedings

Aside from these proceedings, the Company* maybe involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. While we believe that such matters are currentlynot* material, there can beno assurance that matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which we are or could become involved in litigation willnot have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
