Current report
In February 2026, the United States and Israel launched military operations against Iran, resulting in an armed conflict that has caused significant disruption to global energy markets and international shipping, including the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict and resulting instability in the Middle East and broader Gulf region could reduce overall demand for oil and natural gas or disrupt our operations and supply chains, potentially putting downward pressure on demand for our products and services and causing a reduction in our revenue. The ultimate scope and duration of the conflict, and its impact on the global economy, remain uncertain.
Current report
Subsequent to the close of fiscal 2026, Semap Pte Ltd entered into a trade finance facility with The Hong Kong Bank Corporation Limited, Singapore Branch (“HSBC Singapore”) for the issuance from time to time of letters of credit or bank guarantees.

Previous report
In addition, spurred by increasing concerns regarding climate change, the oil and gas industry faces growing demand for corporate transparency and a demonstrated commitment to sustainability goals. Environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) goals and programs, which typically include extralegal targets related to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and corporate governance, have become an increasing focus of investors and shareholders across the industry. While reporting on ESG metrics remains voluntary, access to capital and investors is likely to favor companies with robust ESG programs in place. Ultimately, these initiatives could increase operational costs and make it more difficult for companies, including our current and potential customers, to secure funding for exploration and production activities and, thus, reduce demand for our products and services.

We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks, such as the COVID-19 or novel coronavirus, or fear of such an event.
Previous report
Our business could be adversely affected by a widespread outbreak of contagious disease, such as the outbreak of respiratory illness caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic. If there are extended or additional facility closures, or other interruptions to our business, including as a result of impact on third-party suppliers, contract manufacturers and service providers, related to health epidemics and other outbreaks, such disruptions could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations.

Previous report
While we seek to minimize our exposure to third-party losses of our cash and cash equivalents, we hold our balances in a number of large financial institutions. If the banks where we hold deposits were to experience a failure, any such loss or limitation on our cash and cash equivalents would adversely affect our business.
Reworded paragraphs (14)
Previous wording
We typically sell equipment to a relatively small number of customers, the composition of which changes from year to year as customers’ equipment needs vary. Therefore, at any one time, a large portion of our revenues may be derived from a limited number of customers. In fiscal 2025 and 2024, our single largest customer accounted for approximately 36% and 21%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues. Together, our five largest customers accounted for approximately 73% of our consolidated revenues in fiscal 2025. There has been consolidation among certain of our customers and this trend may continue. This consolidation could result in the loss of one or more of our customers and could result in a decrease in the demand for our equipment. The demand for our government-related services is generally driven by the level of government program funding. The state of the economy, competing political priorities, public funds and the timing of payment of these funds may influence the amount and timing of spending by our customers who are government agencies. The loss of any one of our largest customers or a sustained decrease in demand by any of such customers could result in a substantial loss of revenues and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Therefore, at any one time, a large portion of our revenues may be derived from a limited number of customers. In fiscal 2026 and 2025, our single largest customer accounted for approximately 18% and 36%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues.

Previous wording
If our customers experience financial difficulties or their own customers delay payment to them, they may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable owed to us. Disruptions in the financial markets or other macro-economic issues, such as volatility in price of oil or other hydrocarbons or a worldwide pandemic, such as the global pandemic, could exacerbate financial difficulties for our customers. Any inability of customers to pay us for products and services could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Previous wording
As of January 31, 2025, we had approximately $12.1 million of gross customer accounts receivable, of which approximately $4,000 was over 180 days past due. Contractual payment terms vary by customer and by contract and, under certain circumstances, we may grant extended payment terms to our customers. As of January 31, 2025, we had an allowance for credit losses of approximately $332,000 related to accounts receivable from continuing operations. For fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, we had no charges to our provision for credit losses. Significant payment defaults by our customers in excess of our allowance for credit losses would have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Previous wording
If there is a shortage of a key component and the component cannot be easily sourced from a different supplier, the shortage could disrupt our production activities. Additionally, lead times for other components have increased in some cases. A shortage of key components may cause a significant disruption to our production activities, which could have a substantial adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Previous wording
We have not been directly impacted by the Israel-Hamas conflict. However, the historic volatility in the Middle East, including as a result of recent events in Israel and Gaza, may result in political instability and societal disruption could reduce overall demand for oil and natural gas, potentially putting downward pressure on demand for our services and causing a reduction in our revenue.

Previous wording
We purchase a portion of our supplies from suppliers in China and other foreign countries. The commerce we conduct in the international marketplace makes us subject to tariffs, trade restrictions and other taxes when the supplies that we purchase, and the products we ship, cross international borders. Trade tensions between the United States and China, as well as those between the United States and Canada, Mexico and other countries have escalated recently. Trade tensions have led to a series of tariffs imposed by the United States on imports from China, as well as retaliatory tariffs imposed by China on imports from the United States. Additionally, the current Trump presidential administration has announced plans to impose broad-based tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico and countries in the European Union. If supplies we purchase from China and other international suppliers become subject to tariffs, our operation costs could increase. Products we sell into certain foreign markets could also become subject to similar retaliatory tariffs, making the products we sell uncompetitive to similar products not subjected to such import tariffs. Further changes in United States trade policies, tariffs, taxes, export restrictions or other trade barriers or restrictions, may limit our ability to produce products, increase our manufacturing costs, decrease our profit margins, reduce the competitiveness of our products, or inhibit our ability to sell products or purchase supplies, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial conditions. The majority of our imports are made in Singapore and Malaysia and, therefore, are not directly impacted by the current and proposed tariffs or trade restriction involving the United States.

Trade tensions have led to a series of tariffs imposed by the United States on imports from China, as well as retaliatory tariffs imposed by China on imports from the United States. Additionally, the current Trump presidential administration has imposed broad-based tariffs on imports from numerous countries. The scope, legal authority and durability of these tariffs remain uncertain and subject to change.

Previous wording
We are exposed to inventory risks that may adversely affect our operating results as a result of changes in product cycles and pricing, defective products, changes in customer demand and spending patterns, and other factors. In fiscal 2025 we recorded inventory obsolescence charges of approximately $68,000 compared to approximately $341,000 in fiscal 2024. We endeavor to accurately predict these trends and avoid over-stocking or under-stocking components in order to avoid shortages, excesses or obsolete inventory. Demand for components, however, can change significantly between the time inventory or components are ordered/assembled and the dates of customer orders. In addition, when we begin marketing a new product, it may be difficult to determine appropriate component selection and accurately forecast demand. The acquisition of certain types of inventory or components may require significant lead-time and they may not be returnable. We carry a broad selection and significant inventory levels of certain components, and we may be unable to sell them in sufficient quantities. Any one of the inventory risk factors set forth above may adversely affect our operating results.

Finally, increasing concentrations of GHGs in the Earth’s atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, hurricanes, floods, drought and other climatic events. If any such climatic events were to occur, they could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and the financial condition and operations of our customers. Notwithstanding potential risks related to climate change, the International Energy Agency estimates that oil and gas will continue to represent a substantial major share of global energy use through 2030, and other private sector studies project continued growth in demand for the next two decades.

Previous wording
As of January 31, 2025, we had approximately 146 employees and we expect to increase our number of employees and expand the scope and location of our operations. To manage our anticipated development, expansion and incurrence of additional expenses, we must continue to implement and improve our managerial, operational and financial systems, expand our facilities and continue to recruit and train additional qualified personnel. Members of our management team may need to divert a disproportionate amount of their attention away from their day-to-day activities and devote a substantial amount of time to managing these development activities. Due to our limited resources, we may not be able to effectively manage the expansion of our operations or recruit and train additional qualified personnel. This may result in weaknesses in our infrastructure, give rise to operational mistakes, loss of business opportunities, loss of employees and reduced productivity among remaining employees. The physical expansion of our operations may lead to significant costs and may divert financial resources from other projects. If our management is unable to effectively manage our expected development and expansion, our expenses may increase more than expected, our ability to generate or increase our revenue could be reduced and we may not be able to implement our business strategy.
