Certain Recent Developments
Current report
See “Item 1. Business – Certain Recent Developments” above.
Current report
Other (expense) income, net went from a $0.8 million of other income in fiscal year 2024 to a $0.7 million other expense in fiscal year 2025. The $1.5 million or 186% change was driven by the $1.2 million of interest expense incurred on the $4.4 million loan payable that we took out in September 2024.
Current report
Benefit from income taxes increased by $0.2 million or 13% from fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2025 as a result of the increased loss before income taxes as described above.
Current report
Revenue decreased from $7.3 million in fiscal 2024 to $6.7 million in fiscal 2025 which was a decrease of $0.6 million or 8%. The decrease in revenue was in our bakery business and was due to a temporary cancellation of certain product categories sold to national grocery chains during fiscal 2025.
Current report
Operating income decreased by $0.2 million or 55% which was driven by a non-recurring cost of goods sold adjustment coupled with a depreciation charge taken for its solar electricity system and partially offset by increased profits from the sale of higher margin products at our bakery business.
Current report
Beauty products revenue decreased by $0.3 million or 10% driven by the efforts to control the discounted price of products sold online by unauthorized resellers. For the past year Original Sprout has been reducing the number of unauthorized Internet sales channels, recovering control over its price points, and repositioning its products for a larger presence on store shelves.
Current report
Marygold US incurred an operating loss of $4.7 million in fiscal 2025 compared to an operating loss of $5.7 million in fiscal 2024. Since the Marygold US app earned only de minimis revenues since its launch in June 2023, Marygold US decided to pause operations of the app in the U.S. effective March 31, 2025. As such, the losses and negative cash flows from Marygold US are expected to be reduced going forward as the Company assesses whether it will continue further development of the app for the U.S. market; discontinue development of the app other than for the U.K market; or license or sell the app to a third party, of which there can be no assurance. In order to further develop the app for the U.S. market, the Company anticipates it would need to raise additional debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise such additional financing or upon terms acceptable to it.
Current report
The overall financial services revenue driven by Marygold UK increased by $0.2 million or 32% driven by having a full year of revenue in fiscal 2025 from Step-By-Step which was acquired in April 2024. Marygold UK released a narrower version of the mobile Fintech app in the UK during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The development, marketing and support of the UK Fintech app negatively impacted the financial performance of Marygold UK during fiscal 2025 but was offset due to reduced expenses of Marygold US. The overall financial services operating loss decreased by $0.3 million, or 5%, as a result.
Current report
Operating loss for the corporate headquarters increased by $0.7 million or 21% driven by higher stock-based compensation expenses of $0.4 million and the transition of certain employees from the financial services segment to the parent company.
Current report
As described below, in September 2024 we entered into a financing arrangement under which we borrowed $4.4 million and have the potential to borrow an additional $2.2 million. The financing arrangement also gives the lender the right but not the obligation to provide an additional $10.0 million in financing to us on the same terms as the initial loans. Also as described below, on January 28, 2025, we received $1.8 million in net proceeds from the sale of our shares in a firm commitment underwritten offering. Also, on July 1, 2025, the Company sold Brigadier to a related party. As of June 30, 2025, $0.7 million had been received as a deposit, and the Company received the remaining proceeds of $1.6 million in accordance with the schedule described in Note 16, Subsequent Events to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K.

Recent Equity Financing
Current report
On January 28, 2025, we closed on the sale of an aggregate of 2,050,000 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) at a price to the public of $1.10 per share (before deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions) in a firm commitment underwritten public offering (“Offering”) pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated January 26, 2025 (“Underwriting Agreement”), between us and the Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”), as sole underwriter and book-running manager for the Offering. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we granted Maxim a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 307,500 shares of Common Stock at the public offering price before deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions (“Overallotment Option”). Maxim did not exercise its Overallotment Option.
Current report
The net proceeds of the Offering to us, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, were $1.8 million.

On March 7, 2025, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (“EDA”) with Maxim pursuant to which we may sell from time-to-time shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $4.65 million through or to Maxim, as sales agent or principal. We have agreed to pay Maxim a commission equal to three percent (3%) of the aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of any shares through Maxim under the EDA, reimburse Maxim for certain legal fees and disbursements, and have agreed to indemnify Maxim against certain liabilities under the Securities Act. The EDA requires that, until May 28, 2025, the date of the expiration of the standstill period in our Underwriting Agreement with Maxim for the Offering described above, sales of our shares of common stock be made at a minimum price per share of $1.50 unless, at any time, Maxim and the Company mutually agree upon a lower minimum price per share. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, we did not sell any shares pursuant to the EDA.

Recent Note Financing
Current report
On September 19, 2024, we entered into a note purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Holder”), pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to Holder a secured promissory note in an initial principal amount of $4,380,000 (“Initial Note”) payable on or before 24 months from the issuance date (“Maturity Date”) and, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions in the Purchase Agreement, up to one additional secured promissory note (“Subsequent Note,” Initial Note and Subsequent Note, “Notes”). The initial principal amount of the Notes includes an original issue discount of 9% and expenses the Company agreed to pay to the Holder to cover the Holder’s transaction costs. The original issue discount of the Initial Note was $360,000. Interest on the principal amount of the Notes accrues at a rate of 9% per annum. The Company may pay all or any portion of the amount owed under the Notes earlier than it is due. All payments made under the Notes, including any repayments, are subject to an additional amount payable equal to 6% of the portion of the outstanding balance being repaid. The Subsequent Note would have a principal amount of $2,180,000, which will have terms substantially similar to the terms of the Initial Note. The original issue discount on the Subsequent Note, if issued, will be $180,000.
Current report
The Purchase Agreement contains certain covenants and agreements, including that we will not pledge or grant any lien or security interest in our or our subsidiaries’ assets without the Holder’s prior written consent and that we will file reports under the Securities Exchange Act timely, and that our shares will continue to be listed or quoted on the NYSE American or Nasdaq. Also, without the Holder’s prior written consent, we may not: issue, incur or guarantee any debt obligations other than trade payables in the ordinary course; issue any security that has conversion rights in which the number of shares varies with the market price of our shares; issue any securities convertible into our shares with a conversion price that varies with the market price of our shares; issue any securities that have a conversion or exercise price subject to a reset due to a change in the market price of our shares or upon the occurrence of certain events related to our business (but excluding certain standard antidilution protection for any reorganization, recapitalization, noncash dividend, stock split or similar transaction); issue and securities pursuant to an equity line of credit, standby equity purchase agreement or similar arrangement. The Purchase Agreement also contains a most favored nations provision that provides we will grant to the Holder the same terms as we offer any subsequent investor in our debt securities and certain arbitration provisions in the event of a claim arising under the Purchase Agreement and other transaction documents.
Current report
The Notes contain certain trigger events, including in the event that: (a) we fail to pay any amount when due; (b) a receiver or trustee is appointed with respect to our assets; (c) we become insolvent; (d) we make an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (e) we file a petition under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws; (f) an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding is filed against us; (g) a “fundamental transaction” occurs without Holder’s prior written consent: (h) we, USCF Investments or any of the USCF Investments subsidiaries, fail to observe covenants in our agreements with the Holder; (i) we default in observing or performing any covenant in the transaction documents; (j) any representation in the transaction documents is or becomes false or incorrect; (i) we effect a reverse stock split without 20 trading days’ prior written notice to the Holder; (k) any judgment is entered against us for more than $500,000 which remains unstayed for more than 20 days unless consented to by the Holder; (m) our shares cease to be DTC (Depositary Trust Company) eligible; or (n) we breach any covenant or agreement in any other agreement with Holder or in any financing or other agreement that affects our ongoing business operations. A “fundamental transaction” occurs if: we merge with another entity; we dispose of all or substantially all of our assets, we allow more than 50% of our voting shares to be acquired by another person; we enter into a share purchase agreement with a third party that acquires more than 50% of our shares; we recapitalize or reclassify our shares; we transfer a material asset to a subsidiary; we pay a dividend to our shareholders; or any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 50% of the ordinary voting power of our shares. Upon the occurrence of a trigger event, the Holder may increase the amount outstanding under a Note by 10% for an event described in (a) through (h) above or 5% for an event described in (i) through (n) above (a “default amount”). Alternatively, the Holder may treat the trigger event as an event of default and demand repayment of the Note, subject to a five-day cure period, together with any applicable default amount.
Current report
The Company’s obligations under the Note are secured by: (i) a pledge of all the common stock the Company owns in USCF Investments, Inc. and (ii) a security interest in all of the assets of the Company. Further, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer’s trust, the Nicholas and Melinda Gerber Living Trust (“Gerber Trust”), provided: (i) a guaranty of the Company’s obligations to the Holder under the Note and (ii) a pledge of all of the common stock of the Company owned by the Gerber Trust.
Current report

The Company has the right to defer such redemption payments that Holder could otherwise elect to make three times by providing advance written notice to Holder. If Company exercises its deferral right, the outstanding balance automatically increases by 0.85% for each instance that the deferral right is exercised by Company, which cannot be exercised more than once every ninety calendar days.
Current report
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, beginning on the date of the issuance and sale of the Note and ending 24 months later, Holder will have the right, but not the obligation, with Company’s prior written consent, to reinvest up to an additional $10,000,000 in the Company on the same terms and conditions as the Notes (structured as two tranches of $5,000,000 each).

Previous wording
We are a diversified holding company whose activities involve the acquisition of operating companies through stock purchase or asset purchase transactions. We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. All the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and amounts attributable to intangible assets, including goodwill, are recorded at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. Determination of fair value involves estimates and assumptions which can be complex, most notably with respect to intangible assets. Critical estimates used in the valuation of intangible assets include, but are not limited to, the amount and timing of projected cash flows, useful lives, and discount rates. While management’s estimates of fair value are based on assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, these assumptions are inherently uncertain as they pertain to forward-looking views of our business and market conditions. The judgments made in this valuation process could materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

Previous wording
The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year, and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Accounting literature also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue decreased by $2.0 million or 6% for fiscal 2024 driven by reduced average Assets Under Management (“AUM”) in our fund management business. Average AUM for fiscal 2024 was $3.3 billion compared to $3.7 billion for fiscal 2023. The reduction in AUM in fiscal 2024 was due to commodity price fluctuations, rising interest rate environment as well as geopolitical and economic uncertainty.
Current wording
Revenue decreased by $2.7 million or 8% for fiscal 2025 driven by reduced revenue of $1.8 million at our fund management segment, $0.6 million at our food products segment and $0.3 million at our beauty products segment. Average Assets Under Management (“AUM”) in our fund management business for fiscal 2025 was $2.9 billion compared to $3.3 billion for fiscal 2024. The reduction in AUM in fiscal 2025 was due to commodity price fluctuations, energy demand as well as geopolitical and economic uncertainty. The decreased revenue in food products was driven by changing our product mix and refocusing production capacity to higher profit margin customers. The decreased revenue in beauty products was driven by the efforts to control the discounted price of products sold online by unauthorized resellers.
Previous wording
Gross profit decreased by $2.0 million or 8% for the reasons described above for the reduced revenue as cost of revenue was relatively flat from fiscal 2024 at $8.7 million compared to fiscal 2023 at $8.8 million.
Current wording
Gross profit decreased by $2.2 million or 9% for the reasons described above for the reduced revenue as the gross profit margin remained consistent from fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2025.
Previous wording
Operating expenses increased by $5.7 million or 23% as a result of the following. General and administrative expenses, including marketing and advertising, increased by $2.4 million or 25% driven by increased costs associated with our Fintech app development including additional software and security infrastructure. We recorded a $1.4 million impairment charge relating to the goodwill and other intangible assets in our beauty products unit as a result of increased losses resulting from pandemic-related changes in its distribution channels and increased costs from the introduction of new product lines. Salaries and compensation increased by $1.1 million or 11% compared to fiscal 2023 driven by increased hiring for the buildout of our mobile Fintech app. Fund operations increased by $0.8 million or 17% driven by increased costs associated with managing more funds.
Current wording
Operating expenses decreased by $1.8 million or 6% as a result of the following. During fiscal 2024, we recorded a $1.4 million impairment charge relating to the goodwill and other intangible assets in our beauty products unit as a result of increased losses resulting from pandemic-related changes in its distribution channels and increased costs from the introduction of new product lines. Our marketing expenses decreased by $0.7 million during fiscal 2025 by putting our US fintech app on pause and reducing the marketing costs at our beauty products segment. Partially offsetting the decreased operating expenses were an increase in stock-based compensation expenses of $0.4 million.
Previous wording
Net loss of $4.1 million generated in fiscal 2024 compared to net income of $1.2 million in fiscal 2023 was driven by the increased costs associated with the investment in our mobile Fintech app, the increased losses including the impairment charge relating to our beauty products unit and the decreased profits from our fund management business due to lower AUM.
Current wording
Net loss of $5.8 million in fiscal 2025 increased by $1.8 million or 43% compared to $4.1 million in fiscal 2024. The increase in net loss was driven by the decreased profits from our fund management business due to lower average AUM, decreased other income as described above and offset by improved net overall profits from our other operating segments.

Previous wording
Operating income decreased by $2.7 million or 36% driven by the decrease in average AUM as described above and increased fund operations expenses of $0.8 million or 17% as a result of increased licenses and fees as well as fund accounting and administration costs due to an increase in the number of funds managed.
Current wording
Operating income decreased by $1.5 million or 31% driven by the decrease in average AUM as described above and partially offset by decreased operating expenses of $0.3 million or 2% as a result of lower license fees, and variable fund accounting and administration costs due to lower AUM for funds overall.
Previous wording
Revenue increased by $0.3 million or 9% and operating loss increased by $1.9 million or 650% driven by a $1.4 million impairment charge relating to the goodwill and other intangible assets in our beauty products unit as a result of increased losses resulting from pandemic-related changes in its distribution channels and increased costs from the introduction of new product lines.
Current wording
Operating loss decreased by $1.7 million or 82% driven by a $1.4 million impairment charge taken in fiscal 2024 relating to the goodwill and other intangible assets in our beauty products unit as a result of increased losses resulting from pandemic-related changes in its distribution channels and increased costs from the introduction of new product lines. After the impairment charge taken in fiscal 2024, Original Sprout no longer has any amortization charges from the intangible assets that were written down. Original Sprout also reduced its marketing expense by $0.3 million from fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2025.
Previous wording

Current wording
Revenue decreased by $0.2 million or 7% and operating income decreased by $0.1 million or 23% driven by market timing and weather patterns. Revenues from monitoring residual fees remained relatively static while sales and installations of larger commercial installations decreased for fiscal 2025 as compared to 2024. The larger commercial accounts generate more revenue and profit but take longer to complete, thus may produce spikes or declines in revenue and profits for specific reporting periods. Brigadier was sold to a related party on July 1, 2025 (see “Certain Recent Developments – Sale of Brigadier” and Note 16, Subsequent Events to the audited consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K).

As of June 30, 2024, we had $5.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on a consolidated basis as compared to $8.2 million as of June 30, 2023, a decrease of $2.7 million or 33%. Our cash used in operating activities for fiscal 2024 was $1.9 million. For fiscal 2024, USCF Investments invested $3.0 million by seeding one new fund and we made additional expenditures of $5.7 million in Marygold for the mobile Fintech app. We have invested a total of $15.1 million in the Fintech app since Marygold’s inception. We expect that Marygold will require additional capital to fund its losses over the coming 12 months. As the funding requirements become known, we will decide upon the source of the additional capital investment to be made as the need arises. During fiscal 2024, we made a deposit of $1.8 million in connection with the potential acquisition of a 9.9% equity interest in a domestic financial institution that is currently seeking certain regulatory approval. Despite these cash investments and expenses, our working capital position remains strong at $19.0 million as of June 30, 2024.
Current wording
As of June 30, 2025, we had $5.0 million of cash and cash equivalents on a consolidated basis as compared to $5.5 million as of June 30, 2024, a decrease of $0.5 million or 8%. Our cash used in operating activities for fiscal 2025 was $3.3 million. For fiscal 2025, we made additional expenditures of $3.3 million through Marygold US for the development of the mobile Fintech app in the United States. We have invested a total of $19.1 million in the Fintech app through Marygold US since inception. Despite these cash investments and expenses, our working capital position remains strong at $12.4 million as of June 30, 2025.
Previous wording
Based on our current operating plan which includes continued significant investments in the mobile Fintech app, we intend to raise additional capital through one or more debt and/or equity financing to meet our operating and cash needs. There can be no assurance we will be able to raise additional financing or obtain terms that are acceptable to us. In the event we are unable to find additional financing at terms that are acceptable to us, we would slow down the investment in the development of our Fintech app.
Current wording
The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents along with the cash generated from ongoing operations will be sufficient to fund its cash requirements over the next 12 months. However, based on our current operating plan which we expect may include continued additional investments in our mobile Fintech app for the U.K. market, we may need to raise additional funds through one or more debt, equity or equity linked financings to meet our operating and cash needs. There can be no assurance we will be able to raise such additional financing upon terms acceptable to us or at all. In the event we are unable to obtain additional financing in an amount or upon terms acceptable to us, we expect to further reduce or curtail our investment in the development of our Fintech app.
