SOBR Safe, Inc.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2025

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS, AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SOBR Safe, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) is a hardware and software company headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado. Our Company integrates proprietary software, SOBRsafe TM, with our patented touch-based personal alcohol awareness tracking products, SOBRcheck TM and SOBRsure®, enabling non-invasive personal alcohol awareness tracking, biometric identity verification, and qualified, real-time cloud-based, informational alerts and reporting. We operate as a single segment designed to enable customers to purchase products directly through channel partners, sales agents or through our enterprise and consumer digital channels. Currently our principal markets are located in North America.

On May 16, 2022, our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Markets exchange (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “SOBR.” Prior to this, our common stock was quoted on the “OTCQB” tier of the OTC Markets, also under the ticker symbol “SOBR.”

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as promulgated in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the presentation of annual financial information.

In management’s opinion, the audited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including reclassifications and normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and results of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary, TransBiotec, Inc. (“TBT”), of 98.6%. We have eliminated all intercompany transactions and balances between entities consolidated in these audited financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of audited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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. Specifically, such estimates were made by the Company for the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, and our intellectual technology, stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial Instruments

The Company is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy is based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on reliability of the inputs as follows:

Level I: Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to SOBRsafe for identical assets or liabilities.

Level II: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level III: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued interest payable, related party payables, notes payable, and other liabilities. The Company believes that the recorded values of our financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have financial instruments requiring valuation from observable or unobservable inputs to determine fair value on a recurring basis.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. The Company does not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024.

Accounts Receivable

Customer accounts are monitored for potential credit losses based upon management’s assessment of expected collectability and the allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed periodically to assess the adequacy of the allowance. In making this assessment, management takes into consideration any circumstances of which the Company is aware regarding a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, and any potential prevailing economic conditions and their impact on the Company’s customers. The Company had $30,000 and $25,000 in allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory is comprised of component parts and finished product and is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of substantially all the Company’s inventory is determined by the FIFO cost method. The Company evaluates the valuation of inventory and periodically adjusts the value for estimated excess based upon estimates of future demand and market conditions, and obsolete inventory based upon otherwise damaged or impaired goods. The Company had no reserves for obsolescence at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Prepaid Expenses

Amounts incurred in advance of contractual performance or coverage periods are recorded as prepaid assets and recognized as expense in the period service or coverage is provided.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt using the effective interest method. The unamortized amount is presented as a reduction of debt on the audited consolidated balance sheet.

Preferred Stock

Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. The Company classifies conditionally redeemable preferred shares (if any), which includes preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control, as temporary equity. At all other times, the Company classifies preferred shares in stockholders’ equity.

Noncontrolling Interest

A subsidiary of the Company, TBT, has minority members representing ownership interests of 1.4% at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company accounts for this noncontrolling interest whereby gains and losses in a subsidiary with a noncontrolling interest are allocated to the noncontrolling interest based on the ownership percentage of the noncontrolling interest, even if that allocation results in a deficit noncontrolling interest balance.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company records intangible assets based on estimated fair value on the date of acquisition. Long-lived assets consist of net property and equipment and intangible assets. The finite-lived intangible assets are intellectual property and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the assets.

The Company assesses impairment of long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: (i) significant decreases in the market price of the asset; (ii) significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal or regulatory factors; (iii) or, expectations that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

If the estimated future discounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, from the use of an asset are less than the carrying value, a write-down would be recorded to reduce the related asset to its estimated fair value.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles held for use are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, or at least annually. If the sum of discounted expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset or if changes in facts and circumstances indicate, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the asset’s fair value. An impairment loss of $456,377 was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025. No impairment loss was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Revenue Recognition

The Company enters contracts with customers and generates revenue through various combinations of software products and services which include the sale of cloud-based software solutions, tracking, and data collection hardware devices, and cloud-based data reporting and analysis services. Depending on the combination of products and services detailed in the respective customer contract, the identifiable components may be highly interdependent and interrelated with each other such that each is required to provide the substance of the value of the Company’s offering and accounted for as a combined performance obligation, or the specific components may be generally distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized when control of these software products and/or services are transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for respective services and devices.

The Company determines revenue recognition through five steps which include: (1) identification of the contract or contracts with a customer; (2) identification of individual or combined performance obligations contained in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price detailed within the contract; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the specific performance obligations; (5) recognition of revenue as the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied according to the terms of the contract.

Contracts with a Single License/Service Performance Obligation

For contracts with a single performance obligation consisting of a license and/or data services, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Where the Company provides a performance obligation as licensed software or data services, revenue is recognized upon delivery of the software or services ratably over the respective term of the contract.

Contracts for Purchase of Hardware Devices Only

Where hardware devices are sold separately by the Company, the entire transaction price is allocated to the device as an individual performance obligation and revenue recognized at a point in time when either legal title, physical possession, or the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Generally, these requirements are satisfied at the point in time the Company ships the product, as this is when the customer obtains control of the asset under SOBR’s standard terms and conditions of the purchase.

Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations

Where a Company’s contract with a respective customer contains multiple performance obligations and due to the interdependent and interrelated nature of the licensed software, hardware devices and data reporting services, the Company accounts for the individual performance obligations if they are distinct in nature and the transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation(s) on a directly observable standalone sales price basis. Determining whether products and services are distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately or combined as one unit of accounting may require significant judgment. Standalone selling prices are primarily based upon the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. The Company may be able to establish a standalone sales price based upon observable products or services sold or priced separately in comparable circumstances, competitor pricing or similar customers. Where the performance obligations are either not distinct or directly observable, the Company estimates the standalone sales price of the performance obligations based upon the overall pricing objectives taking into consideration the value of the contract arrangement, number of licenses, number and types of hardware devices and the length of term of the contract. Professional judgement may be required to determine the standalone sales price for each performance obligation where not directly observable. Revenue for contracts with multiple performance obligations is recognized on a ratable basis for each respective performance obligation as allocated under the prescribed Transaction Price identification model applied.

The Company requires customers to make payments related to subscribed software licenses and data services on a monthly basis via authorized bank account ACH withdrawal or an automatic credit card charge during the approved term of the respective agreement. The collectability of future cash flows are reasonably assured with any potential non-payment easily identified with future services being discontinued or suspended due to non-payment.

The Company’s contracts are generally three to twelve months in duration, billed monthly, and non-cancelable. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. The Company generally has an unconditional right to consideration when customers are invoiced, and a receivable is recorded. A contract asset (unbilled revenue) is recognized when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing, or a contract liability (deferred revenue) when revenue will be recognized subsequent to invoicing.

The Company has elected to charge shipping, freight, and delivery costs to customers as a source of revenue to offset respective costs when control has transferred to the customer.

The Company reports revenue net of sales and other taxes collected from customers to be remitted to government authorities.

Estimated costs for the Company’s standard one-year warranty are charged to cost of goods and services when revenue is recorded for the related product. Royalties are also charged to cost of goods and services.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are considered short-term leases and are not recognized on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet for leases with an expected term greater than twelve months. Operating lease ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset over the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at inception based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When the rate implicit in the lease is not determinable, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease expense for fixed lease payments is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments are included in the lease expense when the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company uses the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (warrants, options, and restricted stock units). The fair value of each warrant and option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model that uses assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. The Company has not paid dividends historically and does not expect to pay them in the future. Expected volatilities are based on weighted averages of the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, estimated over the expected term of the awards. The expected term of options granted is derived using the “simplified method” which computes expected term as the average of the sum of the vesting term plus the contract term as historically the Company had limited activity surrounding its awards. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the period of the expected term. The grant date fair value of a restricted stock unit equals the closing price of our common stock on the trading day of the grant date.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurs research and development costs as it acquires new knowledge to bring about significant improvements in the functionality and design of its products and software.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs were $1,685,992 and $323,469 during the years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Income Tax

Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company has not recorded any deferred tax assets or liabilities at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 as these have been offset by a 100% valuation allowance.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share gives the effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, including stock options, warrants and convertible instruments. Diluted net loss per share excludes all potentially issuable shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because the effect of the Company’s dilutive securities is anti-dilutive, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.

The following outstanding and potentially issuable shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted shares outstanding, as they could have been anti-dilutive:

Concentration of Risk

*Credit Risk –*Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consisted primarily of cash. The Company maintains its cash at two domestic financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of a default by the financial institutions to the extent that cash balances are in excess of the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of up to $250,000 per institution. The Company places its cash with high-credit quality financial institutions and is managed within established guidelines to mitigate risk. To date, the Company has not experienced any loss on its cash.

Concentration of Customers – To date, the Company’s sales have been made to a limited number of customers. Should the Company continue to conduct sales to a limited number of customers and remain highly concentrated, revenue may experience significant period-to-period shifts and may decline if the Company were to lose one or more of its customers, or if the Company were unable to obtain new customers.

Concentration of Suppliers – The Company relies on a limited number of component and contract suppliers to assemble its product. If supplier shortages occur, or quality problems arise, production schedules could be significantly delayed or costs significantly increased, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Related Parties

Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amended guidance enhances income tax disclosures primarily related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This guidance requires disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and further information on reconciling items meeting a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amended guidance requires disaggregating income taxes paid (net of refunds received) by federal, state, and foreign taxes. It also requires disaggregating individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid, net of refunds received, is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid, net of refunds received. The amended guidance was effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025. The guidance can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025. As the Company has net operating losses (“NOLs”) and did not incur material cash income taxes, adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, although the enhanced disclosures required by the standard are included in the accompanying notes.

The Company has reviewed recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements will be expected to have a material impact on its financial condition or the results of operations.

ASU 2024-03 and ASU 2025-01,Income Statement - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). These ASUs require additional disclosure of disaggregated income statement expenses in the notes to the financial statements. The standards are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these ASUs on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

ASU 2025-03,Determining the Accounting Acquirer in a Business Combination Involving a Variable Interest Entity. This ASU clarifies guidance for identifying the accounting acquirer when the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on future business combinations.

ASU 2025-05,Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses. This ASU introduces a practical expedient for credit loss measurement for certain accounts receivable and contract assets. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact on its financial statements.

ASU 2025-06,Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements. This ASU amends the internal-use software capitalization criteria. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2025-11,Interim Reporting (ASC 270). This ASU clarifies guidance on when interim reporting applies and specifies required interim disclosures. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance.

The Company does not expect that the adoption of any of the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements; however, the full effect will depend on future transactions, guidance, and interpretations.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. None of these reclassifications had a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and has limited cash liquidity and capital resources to meet future capital requirements. The Company’s ability to meet future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s ability to sell and develop products, generate cash flow from operations, and assess competing market developments. The Company may need additional capital resources in the future. Sources of debt financing may result in additional interest expense. Any financing, if available, may be on unfavorable terms. If adequate funds are not available or obtained, the Company may be required to reduce or curtail operations.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $107,300,000. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company also experienced negative cash flows from operating activities of approximately $7,000,000. These principal conditions and events, when considered in the aggregate, could indicate it is probable that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. However, the Company has identified factors that may mitigate the probable conditions that have raised substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Based on an evaluation of current operating cash usage, management identified several areas in which the Company is capable to reduce spend should it be needed. This includes reductions in operating headcount, discretionary sales & marketing spend, investor relations initiatives, and product/software research and development planning. Ongoing activities to identify and reduce monthly expenses by management will continue in perpetuity until such time financial liquidity and substantial cash flow from sales are realized.

Management believes that cash balances of approximately $4,800,000 and positive working capital of approximately $3,500,000 at December 31, 2025, do not provide adequate capital for operating activities for the next twelve months after the date these financial statements are issued. However, management believes the release of its second generation SOBRsure device in the fourth quarter of 2024 and a comprehensive 2025 marketing plan have positioned the Company to generate improvement in the generation of both revenue and positive cash flows from sales. In addition, the Company’s plans and ability to access capital sources and implement expense-reduction tactics to preserve working capital provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern as of December 31, 2025. These plans are contingent upon the actions to be performed by the Company, and these conditions have not been met on or before April 10, 2026. As such, substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated as of December 31, 2025.

NOTE 3. INVENTORY

Inventories consist of the following:

NOTE 4. PREPAID EXPENSES

Prepaid expenses consist of the following:

On July 1, 2025, the Company entered into a financing agreement for payment of its annual insurance premiums for coverage from July 2025 through June 2026 totaling $341,306. The financing agreement required an initial down payment of $68,261 withthe remaining amount of $273,045 financed for a nine-month period at an annual interest rate of 8.6% with monthly payments of $31,441 beginning August 2025.

On July 1, 2024, the Company entered into a financing agreement for payment of its annual insurance premiums for coverage from July 2024 through June 2025 totaling $330,083. The financing agreement required an initial down payment of $66,017 withthe remaining amount of $264,066 financed for an eight-month period at an annual interest rate of 9.1% with monthly payments of $34,150 beginning in July 2024. The principal balance and any accrued interest related to the premium financing note payable was paid in full in March 2025.

NOTE 5. LEASES

The Company leases its corporate headquarters office space and certain office equipment under arrangements classified as operating leases.

The Company entered into a lease agreement to rent office space for atwelve-month period beginning July 1, 2022, with a monthly base rent of $9,744. The lease did not contain renewal options and was considered a short-term lease at inception. In April 2023, the Company executedan amendment to extend the term of the lease from July 1, 2023, through September 30, 2026. The amended lease provides for monthly base rent of $9,310 through September 2024, with fixed escalating monthly base rent for each year thereafter, and no rent due for the months of July through September 2023.

The Company determined that the amendment results in a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate contract. Further, due to the extension of the lease term beyond the initial twelve months, the office lease can no longer be considered a short-term lease. The Company has recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability as of April 17, 2023 (the effective date of the amendment) based on the modified terms and conditions of the amended lease.

The Company entered into a lease agreement for copier equipment in June 2023, requiring monthly lease payments of $329 through May 2026.

Total operating lease expense was $201,713, which included $86,014 of variable lease expense during the year ended December 31, 2025. Total operating lease expense was $198,361, which included $82,662 of variable lease expense during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Operating lease obligations recorded on the audited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 are as follows:

Future lease payments included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities on the audited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 are as follows:

The weighted average remaining lease term is 9 months, and the weighted average discount rate is 10%.

Total interest expense for non-related party notes was $21,777 and $76,965 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Convertible Notes Payable with Warrants – 2023 Debt Offering

On March 7, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Offering (the “2023 Debt Offering”) pursuant to a Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) and Registration Rights Agreement with institutional investors. The 2023 Debt Offering closed on March 9, 2023. The 2023 Debt Offering includes 15% Original Issue Discount Convertible Notes (the “Notes”) and Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Warrants”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company received $3,000,001 from the Purchasers and in exchange issued the Notes in principal amounts of $3,529,412 and Warrants to purchase up to 352 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Notes may be converted voluntarily by the Purchaser at any time the principal amounts are outstanding into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $2,508. The Notes are due March 10, 2025, and accrue interest quarterly at 5% per annum. The accrued interest is compounded quarterly, payable on the maturity date, if not sooner converted. The Warrants are exercisable at any time through March 9, 2028, into shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2,772 per share. The Company received approximately $2,500,000 of net proceeds from the 2023 Debt Offering after offering-related costs.

On May 10, 2023, noteholders elected to convert a total of $341,998 (the “Conversion Amount”) pertaining to the 2023 Debt Offering into 137 shares of the Company’s common stock at $2,508 per share. As provided for in the Agreement, the Conversion Amount included original note principal of $309,688, as well as accrued interest of $32,311.

On March 4, 2024, the Company entered into inducement offer letter agreements (the “Inducement Letters”) with each holder (collectively, the “Holders”, and individually, a “Holder”) of the Notes issued on March 9, 2023. Pursuant to the Inducement Letters, the Holders agreed to convert some or all of the Applicable Notes at a reduced conversion price equal to $682 per share (such reduced conversion price, the “Notes Conversion Price”). Simultaneously with the execution of the Inducement Letters, the Company received conversion notices from such Holders for the conversion of approximately $804,000 aggregate principal amount of the Applicable Notes, representing approximately 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Applicable Notes. In connection with such conversion, the Notes Conversion Price was permanently reduced to $682. The Company recognized conversion expense of $585,875 for the induced conversion.

In March, May, and June 2024 noteholders elected to convert an aggregate total of $3,556,234 (the “Conversion Amount”) pertaining to the 2023 Debt Offering into 5,214 shares of the Company’s common stock at $682 per share. As provided for in the Agreement, the Conversion Amount included original Convertible Note principal of $3,219,724, as well as $336,510 of accrued interest incurred in both fiscal 2023 and 2024.

Stock Warrants

On March 6, 2024, pursuant to the Adjustment terms ofthe September 2021 and the March 2022 Armistice Warrants as a result of the Inducement Letters, the Company issued an aggregate 2,418 warrants (the “Armistice Warrants”) consisting of (i) 1,934 warrants pursuant to the Adjustment terms under the September 2021 Armistice Warrant, and (ii) 484 warrants pursuant to the Adjustment terms of the March 2022 Armistice warrant. In addition, the Armistice Warrants include conditions where the warrant exercise price may be adjusted downward in the event securities instruments or exercise prices are subsequently issued or reduced, respectively, below the then current exercise prices of $1,485 per unit of the Armistice Warrants. Where the Inducement Letters stipulate a reduction in the warrant securities exercise prices below the Armistice Warrant exercise price of $1,485 per unit, the conditions of a downward adjustment were met reducing the Armistice Warrants exercise price permanently to $682 per unit. The additional issuance of the Armistice Warrants expire seven years from the date of the original issuance on September 28, 2021, and March 30, 2022, respectively. The difference with respect to the adjusted additional warrants is treated as a deemed dividend and a reduction in net income available to common stockholders of $23,270.

On March 6, 2024, pursuant to the Inducement letters, the exercise price for Common Stock Purchase Warrants issued on September 30, 2022, in relation to the PIPE Offering were permanently reduced to $682 per share. The difference with respect to the adjusted warrant exercise price is treated as a deemed dividend and a reduction in net income available to common stockholders.

In June 2024, the Company entered into a Warrant Inducement with a certain holder of its existing warrants to exercise for cash an aggregate of 9,382 shares of the Company’s common stock at a reduced exercise price of $297 per share. The value of the adjusted warrant exercise price of $341,297 was recorded as a reduction to Retained Earnings in conjunction with a deemed dividend of $1,455,805. The exercised warrants included warrants issued in the Amended and Restated common stock Purchase Warrants, with an initial exercise date of September 27, 2021, dated September 2022, the Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrants, with an initial exercise date of March 30, 2022, dated September 2022, and warrants issued under the Waiver agreement dated March 30, 2022. As part of the Warrant Inducement, the Company agreed to issue new unregistered warrants to purchase up to 18,763 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable upon the Company obtaining stockholder approval for purposes of complying with applicable Nasdaq rules with an exercise price of $297 per share. The warrants will expire five years following the issuance date. The total gross proceeds from the Warrant Inducement was $2,786,174 with net proceeds of $2,425,418 after deducting $360,756 in commissions and transaction costs.

Upon the close of the transaction, the Company issued the holder 5,184 of the 9,382 shares of common stock that were issuable upon exercise of the existing warrants. Due to the beneficial ownership limitation provisions in the inducement offer letter agreement, the remaining 4,198 shares were initially unissued, and reserved in abeyance with the Company’s transfer agent for the benefit of the holder until notice from the holder that the shares may be issued in compliance with the agreement. Upon notice from the holder on June 24, 2024, the Company issued 4,198 shares of common stock previously held in abeyance.

On June 4, 2024, pursuant to the Warrant Inducement, the exercise price for Common Stock Purchase Warrants issued on September 30, 2022, in relation to the 2022 PIPE Offering were permanently reduced to $297 per share. The difference with respect to the adjusted warrant exercise price is treated as a deemed dividend of $42,539 and a reduction in net income available to common stockholders.

In October 2024, the Company entered into a private investment in public equity offering (the “PIPE 2024 Offering”) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement and registration rights agreement where the Company agreed to issue an aggregate of 202,470 units (the “Units”) at a purchase price of $40.50 per unit, each Unit consisting of one share of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company, or one pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof, two Series A Warrants, each to purchase one share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $38 per share, and one Series B Warrant to purchase such number of common stock as will be determined on the Reset Date. The Series A Warrants also include a reset feature, where, on the Reset Date, the exercise price shall be adjusted to equal the lower of (i) the exercise price then in effect and (ii) the Reset Price determined as of the date of determination. Upon such reset of the exercise price pursuant to the Series A Warrant, the number of warrant shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the aggregate exercise price on the issuance date for the warrant shares then outstanding. In accordance with the terms of the Series A and Series B Warrant Agreements and determination of the Reset Exercise Price in effect at December 31, 2025, the issuance of 1,603,370 Series A Warrants and 640,864 Series B Warrants. Under the terms of the Warrant Agreements, at the conclusion of the Reset Period and final determination of the Reset Exercise Price on the Reset Date, January 15, 2025, additional Series A and Series B Warrants may be issued.

On October 18, 2024, the Company received exercise notices from various institutional investors at a weighted-average exercise price of approximately $47.30. In exchange for the issuance of 19,110 shares of common stock the Company received net proceeds of $902,541.

During December 2024, the Company received exercise notices from various institutional investors at a weighted-average exercise price of approximately $9.60. In exchange for the issuance of 162,129 shares of common stock the Company received net proceeds of $1,652,034.

On January 15, 2025, the Reset Date for the Series A Warrants issued in the 2024 PIPE Offering, the final determination of the Reset Exercise Price was determined to be $8.29 per share. Pursuant to the Reset Date and Reset Exercise Price, the exercise price for Series A Warrants in relation to the 2024 PIPE Offering, and the Common Stock Purchase Warrants issued on September 30, 2022, in relation to the 2022 PIPE Offering, were permanently reduced to $8.29 per share resulting in an additional 225,450 warrants issued to the remaining warrant holders. The difference with respect to the adjusted warrant exercise prices is treated as a deemed dividend and a reduction in net income available to common stockholders.

On April 11, 2024, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Series A Warrants issued on October 9, 2024 in conjunction with the 2024 PIPE Offering, the Company evaluated the impact of the 1-for-10 reverse split of the Company’s common stock, or Share Combination Event, on Nasdaq. The terms of the Series A Warrant Agreement stipulate in the event of Share Combination Event, or reverse split, where the resulting closing share price is lower than the then Exercise Price, the Exercise Price will be reduced to the Floor Price determined in the Warrant Agreement of $7.60 per warrant. Following the Share Combination Event, the Exercise Price of the Series A Warrants was reduced to the Floor Price prescribed in the terms of the respective Warrant Agreement at $7.60 per share resulting in an additional 110,273 warrants issued to the remaining warrant holders. Further, should the resulting closing share price be below the Floor Price during a period of five trading days after the Share Combination Event, the calculated difference between the lowest volume-weighted-average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s stock during the five-trading day period and the Floor Price of the then outstanding Series A Warrants outstanding shall be paid pro rata to the remaining holders of the warrants (the “True-up Payment”), not to exceed $1,640,000. The lowest VWAP during the trading period of $4.71 was determined to be below the Floor Price resulting in a True-up Payment due to the remaining holders of $1,640,000. The True-up Payment balance due was paid in full to the remaining holders in July 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company received exercise notices from various institutional investors at a weighted average exercise price of approximately $8.39. In exchange for the issuance of 579,219 shares of common stock, the Company received net proceeds of $3,680,411.

On December 29, 2025, the Company entered into a private investment in public equity offering (the “PIPE 2025 Offering”) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement and registration rights agreement wherethe Company agreed to issue an aggregate of 370,000 share of common stock at a purchase price of $1.55 per share, 920,324 pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of its common stock at $1.55 per share, 1,290,324 Series C Warrants, each to purchase one share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.30 per share, and 1,290,324 Series D Warrants to purchase one share of common stock at $1.30. The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the offering were $1.7 million, net of commissions and offering expenses.

The rights and privileges of the PIPE 2025 Offering Pre-funded Warrants are set forth in the warrant agreement between the Company and each of the respective warrant holders. The PIPE 2025 Offering Pre-funded Warrants are exercisable at the option of the warrant holder at any time and do not expire. However, as set forth in the warrant agreements with each holder, the number of pre-funded warrants that may be exercised at any given time may be limited if, upon exercise, the warrant holder and any of its affiliates would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the Company’s common stock, or have voting power of more than 9.99% of the Company's common stock. The PIPE 2025 Offering Pre-funded Warrants do not provide any of the rights or privileges provided by the Company's common stock, including any voting rights, until the pre-funded warrants are exercised and settled in underlying shares of common stock.

The Company evaluated the PIPE 2025 Offering Pre-funded Warrants and concluded the warrants are indexed to the Company's common stock, meet the criteria to be classified as equity and are not subject to remeasurement. The proceeds received from the issuance of the pre-funded warrants were recorded as additional paid-in capital. There were no exercises of PIPE 2025 Offering Pre-funded Warrants during the year ended December 31, 2025.

The fair values of stock warrants granted were determined using the Monte Carlo simulation and Black-Scholes option pricing models based on the following assumptions:

The following table summarizes the changes in the Company’s outstanding warrants:

The following tables summarize the changes in the Company’s outstanding stock options:

NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

On December 6, 2006, Orange County Valet and Security Patrol, Inc. filed a lawsuit against us in Orange County California State Superior Court for Breach of Contract in the amount of $11,164. A default judgment was taken against us in this matter. In mid-2013, we learned the Plaintiff’s perfected the judgment against us, but we have not heard from the Plaintiffs as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has accrued $11,164 plus accrued interest of $22,488. In the event we pay any money related to this lawsuit, IDTEC agreed, in connection with us closing a 2020 asset purchase transaction with IDTEC, to pay the amount for us in exchange for shares of our common stock.

NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the recognition of net operating losses (“NOL”s) for financial reporting purposes and their recognition for income tax purposes. Under the provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), NOL carryforwards may be subject to revised utilization rules and limitations, particularly in connection with ownership changes as defined by the Internal Revenue Code.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred net losses and, accordingly, recorded no current income tax liability. Since commencing operations in 2007, the Company has generated approximately $58,610,000 in federal NOL carryforwards. Consistent with the OBBBA provisions, these NOLs may be carried forward indefinitely; however, their annual utilization may be limited to a specified percentage of taxable income in future periods.

Additionally, pursuant to the ownership change rules under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as modified by the OBBBA, the Company’s NOL carryforwards of approximately $58,610,000 are subject to annual limitations in the event of a significant ownership change. If such a change occurs, the amount of NOLs available to offset taxable income in future years could be materially restricted. Furthermore, cumulative NOL carryforwards for income tax reporting purposes may differ from cumulative financial statement losses due to timing differences between financial accounting and tax recognition.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the deferred tax assets of approximately $14,598,000 and $12,004,000, respectively, created by the NOLs has been offset by a 100% valuation allowance because the likelihood of realization of the tax benefit cannot be determined. The change in the valuation allowance in 2025 and 2024 was approximately $2,595,000 and $2,290,000, respectively.

There is no current or deferred tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company has not filed its tax returns for the years 2012 through 2025; however, management believes there are no taxes due as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following:

The cumulative tax effect at the expected federal tax rate of 21% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows on December 31, 2025 and 2024:

The cumulative tax effect at the expected state tax rate of 5% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows on December 31, 2025 and 2024:

The Company has identified the United States Federal tax returns as its “major” tax jurisdiction. The United States Federal tax return years 2012 – 2025 are still subject to tax examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service; however, we do not currently have any ongoing tax examinations.

NOTE 15. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company is managed as one reportable operating segment, which includes all of our operations primarily designed to enable customers to purchase products and services through channel partners, sales agents or enterprise and consumer digital channels. Substantially all of our consolidated revenues and cash flows are generated in the United States. The segment information aligns with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), designated as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, reviews and manages the Company’s business. The Company’s CODM monitors our consolidated operating income and net earnings/(loss) to evaluate performance and make operating decisions.

Financial information and annual operating plans and forecasts are prepared and reviewed by the CODM at a consolidated level. The CODM assesses performance for the single operating segment and decides how to better allocate resources based on revenues, gross profit/(loss), net income/(loss) and other applicable benchmarks that are reported on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Company's objective in making resource allocation decisions is to optimize the Company’s operating financial results and financial position. The accounting policies of our single operating segment are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies herein. For additional reportable single operating segment level financial information, see the Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure through April 10, 2026, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued and has determined that there are no material subsequent events that require recognition or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements other than those following.

On March 19, 2026, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock remained below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Requirement”).

In addition, the Letter noted thatthe Company effected a 1-for-110 reverse stock split on October 2, 2024, and a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on April 4, 2025, making the cumulative reverse stock split ratio 1-for-1100 (the “Reverse Splits”) over the last two years. As a result of the Reverse Splits, the Company is not eligible for the 180-day compliance period set forth in Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) because the Reverse Splits have a cumulative ratio of over 1-for-250.

The notification has no immediate effect on the Company’s Nasdaq listing and the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “SOBR.” In addition, it does not affect the Company’s business, operations or reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company timely appealed the Staff’s determination and intends to submit a plan to the hearings panel (the “Panel”) to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement, and if necessary, effect a reverse stock split. The hearing request will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Panel following the hearing. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement or otherwise maintain compliance with any of the other listing requirements.
