Current report
Our reliance on U.S. and non-U.S. suppliers to secure parts, components and sub-systems used in our products also exposes us to volatility in the prices and availability of these materials and services. In some instances, we depend upon a single source of supply, manufacturing, services support or assembly or we may be subject to specific procurement requirements that limit the types of materials we use, which may further limit the suppliers and subcontractors we may utilize. Although the components and materials we require may be available from other suppliers, any attempt to transition our supply arrangement to one or more other suppliers could entail expense and could lead to delays in production. If we are unable to arrange for sufficient supply of the components and materials we require, we may encounter difficulty in meeting customer requirements or increases in our operating costs which could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
Current report
On October 24, 2025, we submitted a request to Nasdaq for an additional 180-day period (the “Second Compliance Period”) to provide additional time for us to demonstrate compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. On October 29, 2025 we received written notice from Nasdaq (the “Extension Letter”) granting us an extension through April 27, 2026 (the “Extension Deadline”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The Extension Letter has no immediate effect on the Nasdaq listing or trading of our common stock. However, if we fail to timely regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the Second Compliance Period our shares will be subject to delisting from Nasdaq.
Current report
The market price of our securities has been and may continue to be volatile. The price of our securities may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, and investors in our securities may experience decreases in the value of those securities, including decreases unrelated to our operating performance. In addition, price volatility may be greater if the public float and trading volume of our Class A Common Stock is low.
Current report
Factors that could cause the market price of our securities to fluctuate or decline include, among others:
Current report
In addition, broad market and industry factors, including those unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance, may materially and adversely affect the market price of our securities. As a result, you may not be able to resell such securities at or above the price you paid and may lose all or part of your investment.
Removed paragraphs (13)
Previous report
Although our products could be produced by other manufacturers, any attempt to transition our supply arrangement to one or more other manufacturers could entail expense and could lead to delays in production. If we are unable to arrange for sufficient production capacity among our contract manufacturers or if our contract manufacturers encounter production, quality, financial, or other difficulties, we may encounter difficulty in meeting customer demands as we seek alternative sources of supply. If any of the risks discussed above materialize, costs could significantly increase, and our ability to meet demand for our products could be impacted.
Previous report
We have begun implementation of a plan to remediate these material weaknesses, which we expect will result in significant future costs for us.
Previous report
Fluctuations in the price of our securities could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Prior to the Closing, there was no public market for the stock of Legacy Mobix or our Class A Common Stock. Although we have listed the Class A Common Stock on Nasdaq, an active trading market may not be sustained. If an active market for the Class A Common Stock is not sustained, it may be difficult for you to sell shares at an attractive price or at all.
Previous report
Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our securities and our securities may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of our securities may not recover and may experience a further decline. Factors affecting the trading price of our securities may include:
Previous report
Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general and Nasdaq have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected.
Previous report
Our management may experience difficulties with operating a public company.
Previous report
Our executive officers have limited experience in the management of a publicly traded company. Our management team may experience difficulties with effectively managing and operating a public company that is subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Their limited experience in dealing with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies could be a disadvantage in that it is likely that an increasing amount of their time may be devoted to these activities, which will result in less time being devoted to the management our operations and growth. We believe that we will need to continue to seek additional personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience, and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal controls over financial reporting required of public companies in the United States. The development and implementation of the standards and controls necessary for us to achieve the level of accounting standards required of a public company in the United States will require significant costs, and these may be greater than expected. We believe that we will be required to expand our employee base and hire additional employees to support our operations as a public company, which will increase our operating costs in future periods.
Previous report
We anticipate that our stockholders will experience dilution in the future.
Previous report
We believe these provisions may benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law and federal securities laws by chancellors and judges, as applicable, particularly experienced in resolving corporate disputes, efficient administration of cases on a more expedited schedule relative to other forums and protection against the burdens of multi-forum litigation. If a court were to find the choice of forum provision that is contained in our Charter and Bylaws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. For example, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a forum selection provision as written in connection with claims arising under the Securities Act.
Previous report
Under the Amendment to the Warrant Agreement, claims that may be brought against us must be resolved by final and binding arbitration, which follows a set of procedures and may be more restrictive than litigation.
Previous report
The amendment to the warrant agreement entered into by Chavant and Continental Stock Transfer, dated December 21, 2023 (the “Amendment to the Warrant Agreement”), provides that any dispute, controversy, or claim, whether in contract or tort, arising or relating to the Amendment to the Warrant Agreement or the enforcement, breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration in Orange County, California, before one neutral and impartial arbitrator, in accordance with the laws of the state of New York. As a result, warrant holders will not be able to pursue litigation in federal or state court against us, and instead, will be required to pursue such claims through a final and binding arbitration proceeding.
Previous report
The Amendment to the Warrant Agreement provides that such arbitration proceedings would generally be administered by JAMS and conducted in accordance with the rules and policies set forth in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. These rules and policies may provide significantly more limited rights than litigation in a federal or state court. The mandatory arbitration provisions of the Amendment to the Warrant Agreement may discourage warrant holders from bringing, and attorneys from agreeing to represent such parties in, claims against us. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in the warrants shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the mandatory arbitration provisions.
Previous report
The mandatory arbitration provisions in the Amendment to the Warrant Agreement do not relieve us of our duties to comply with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. We believe the provisions of the Amendment to the Warrant Agreement are enforceable under both federal and state law, including with respect to federal securities law claims; however, there is uncertainty as to their enforceability, and it is possible that they may ultimately be determined to be unenforceable.

Current wording
Since our inception in 2020, we have invested a significant amount of time and expense into the design and development of technology for our current and anticipated future products, including mmWave wireless technology. We have also grown through acquisitions of other businesses, including our fiscal year 2024 acquisitions of RaGE Systems and EMI Solutions, which expanded our operations to the aerospace, military, defense, medical and other markets. However, it remains difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risks and challenges we may encounter. Risks and challenges we have faced or expect to face include, but are not limited to, our ability to:
Previous wording
Since inception, we have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows, primarily due to our ongoing investment in product development. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred losses from operations of $46.4 million and $35.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $104.5 million. Since then, we have continued to incur losses from operations, and we expect this trend to persist, along with negative cash flows from operations, for the foreseeable future.

Since inception, we have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows, primarily due to our ongoing investment in product development. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we incurred losses from operations of $37.7 million and $46.4 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $150.6 million. Since then, we have continued to incur losses from operations, and we expect this trend to persist, along with negative cash flows from operations, for the foreseeable future.
Previous wording
We believe that there is substantial doubt concerning our ability to continue as a going concern as we currently do not have adequate liquidity to meet our operating needs and satisfy our obligations beyond the next approximately ninety days. We will need to raise additional working capital to continue our normal and planned operations. We will need to generate and sustain significant revenue levels in future periods in order to become profitable, and, even if we do, we may not be able to maintain or increase our level of profitability. In addition, as a public company, we will continue to incur increased accounting, legal, and other expenses which make it necessary for us to continue to raise additional working capital. Our efforts to grow our business may be costlier than expected, and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to offset our increased operating expenses. We may incur significant losses in the future for a number of reasons, including unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays, and other unknown events. Accordingly, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern, and we cannot assure you that we will achieve sustainable operating profits as we continue to expand our business and otherwise implement our growth initiatives and strategies.
Current wording
We believe that there is substantial doubt concerning our ability to continue as a going concern as we currently do not have adequate liquidity to meet our operating needs and satisfy our obligations for at least the next twelve months. We will need to raise additional working capital to continue our normal and planned operations. We will need to generate and sustain significant revenue levels in future periods in order to become profitable, and, even if we do, we may not be able to maintain or increase our level of profitability.

Previous wording
The financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been prepared on a going concern basis. We may not be able to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. We plan to continue to provide for our capital needs through sales of our securities, issuance of debt, and/or related party advances. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Previous wording
Markets for our 5G semiconductor products are still developing and may not develop at the speed and scale as expected.
Current wording
Markets for mmWave wireless semiconductor products are still developing and may not develop at the speed and scale as expected.
Previous wording
The markets for our products designed for the 5G network are relatively new and still developing, which makes our business and future prospects difficult to evaluate, and thus the estimates and forecasts of total addressable market and serviceable addressable market are subject to significant uncertainty. We and our customers are pursuing opportunities in markets that are undergoing rapid changes, including technological and regulatory changes, and it is difficult to predict the timing and size of the opportunities. Many of the wireless and wired applications we and our customers are working towards commercializing require complex technology and are subject to uncertainties with respect to, among other things, the heavy capital investment required to commercialize those applications, the competitive landscape, the rate of consumer acceptance and the impact of current or future regulations. Regulatory, safety or reliability developments, many of which are outside of our and our customers’ control, could also cause delays or otherwise impair commercial adoption of new technologies and solutions, which may adversely affect our growth.

Previous wording
As we develop our 5G semiconductor products, we face the risk that potential customers may not value or be willing to bear the cost of incorporating our products into their product offerings, particularly if they believe their customers are satisfied with prior offerings. If we are unable to sell our 5G semiconductor products and new generations of such products, the growth prospects of our 5G semiconductor products may be negatively affected.
Current wording
As we develop mmWave wireless semiconductor products, we face the risk that potential customers may not value or be willing to bear the cost of incorporating our products into their product offerings, particularly if they believe their customers are satisfied with prior offerings. If we are unable to sell mmWave semiconductor products we seek to develop, and subsequent generations of such products, the growth prospects of our mmWave wireless semiconductor products would be negatively affected.
Previous wording
The markets for semiconductor products and solutions are highly competitive. Our future success in commercializing our semiconductor products and solutions will depend on whether we can deliver the technology, products, and solutions solving our target customers’ engineering challenges and continue to develop semiconductor products and solutions in a timely manner. Additionally, it will depend on whether we can stay ahead of existing and new competitors. Some of our existing competitors and potential new competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, more established customer bases, and significantly greater financial, technical, research and development, marketing, and other resources than we do. In some cases, our competitors may be better positioned to initiate or withstand substantial price competition. If we are not able to maintain favorable pricing for our products and solutions, our profit margin and profitability could suffer. Certain competitors may be better positioned to acquire competitive solutions and take advantage of acquisition or other similar expansion opportunities. Increased competition may result in pricing pressure and reduced margins, impeding our ability to increase the sales of our products or causing us to lose market share. Any of these outcomes will adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Previous wording
Our non-wireless connectivity products and solutions are also subject to intense competition. If customer preferences change to demand more lower-priced products, our competitive advantage will be reduced.
Current wording
Our interconnect products are also subject to intense competition.
Previous wording
The markets for our non-wireless and connectivity products and solutions are competitive and fragmented and are subject to changing technology and shifting customer needs. A number of vendors produce and market products and services that compete to varying extents with our offerings, and we expect this competition to intensify. Moreover, the rapid rate of technological change affecting the connectivity market could increase the chances that we will face competition from new products or services designed by companies with whom we do not currently compete.

Current wording
The consolidation of our customers may adversely affect our financial results.
Previous wording
Our industry is characterized by the high costs associated with developing marketable semiconductor products and solutions as well as high levels of investment in production capabilities. As a result, the semiconductor industry has experienced, and may continue to experience, significant consolidation among companies and vertical integration among customers. Larger competitors resulting from consolidations may have certain advantages over us, including, but not limited to, substantially greater financial and other resources with which to withstand adverse economic or market conditions and pursue development, engineering, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of their products; longer operating histories; presence in key markets; patent protection; and greater name recognition. In addition, we may be at a competitive disadvantage to our peers if we fail to identify attractive opportunities to acquire companies to expand our business. Consolidation among our competitors and integration among our customers could erode our market share, negatively impact our capacity to compete and require us to restructure our operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

If we are successful in executing our business strategy, we will need to expand our managerial, operational, financial, and other systems and resources to manage our operations, continue our research and development activities, and, in the longer term, build a commercial infrastructure to support the commercialization of any of our products. Future growth would impose significant added responsibilities on members of our management. It is likely that our management, finance, development personnel, systems, and facilities currently in place may not be adequate to support this future growth. We need to effectively manage our operations, growth, and controls, and we continue to develop more robust business processes and improve our systems and procedures in each of these areas and to attract and retain enough numbers of talented employees. We may be unable to successfully implement these tasks on a larger scale, and, accordingly, may not achieve our growth goals.

Changes in global political, regulatory, and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development, and investment in the territories or countries where we may purchase, manufacture, or sell our products or conduct our business could adversely affect our business. In recent years, the United States has instituted or proposed changes in trade policies that include export control restrictions, the negotiation or termination of trade agreements, the imposition of higher tariffs on imports into the United States, increased economic sanctions on individuals, corporations, or countries, and other government regulations affecting trade between the United States and other countries where we conduct our business or plan to conduct business, including China, where we source materials for our connectivity products and package and test our semiconductor products. A number of other nations have proposed or instituted similar measures directed at trade with the United States in response. As a result of these developments, there may be greater restrictions and economic disincentives on international trade that could adversely affect our business. It may be time-consuming and expensive for us to alter our business operations to adapt to or comply with any such changes, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Previous wording
Currently, our Class A Common Stock and the Public Warrants are traded on Nasdaq. However, we cannot assure you that our securities will continue to be listed on Nasdaq in the future. In order to continue listing our securities on Nasdaq, we are required to maintain certain financial, distribution, and stock price levels. We are required to maintain a minimum market capitalization (generally $50 million) and a minimum number of holders of our listed securities (generally 400 public holders). On August 9, 2024, we received a delinquency notification letter (the “MVLS Notice”) from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) due to the non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) as a result of our failure to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $50 million. In addition, on November 18, 2024, we received a delinquency notification letter (the “Bid Prices Notice”, together with the MVLS Notice, the “Notices”) from the Staff due to the non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), which requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The Notices have no immediate effect on the listing of our shares of Class A Common Stock on Nasdaq and we have a period of 180 calendar days from receipt of each of the Notices to regain compliance. However, if we fail to timely regain compliance with the rules, our shares will be subject to delisting from Nasdaq. As of the date of this Annual Report, we had satisfied the conditions to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
Current wording
Currently, our Class A Common Stock and the Public Warrants are traded on Nasdaq. However, we cannot assure you that our securities will continue to be listed on Nasdaq in the future. In order to continue listing our securities on Nasdaq, we are required to maintain certain financial, distribution, and stock price levels. We are required to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). On April 28, 2025, we received a delinquency notification letter (the “Notice”) from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) due to the non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) as a result of our failure to maintain the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The Notice stated that, as of its date, the stock price of the Class A Common Stock was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days and gave us 180 calendar days, or until October 27, 2025, to regain compliance by maintaining a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days (the “Initial Compliance Period”).
Previous wording
The trading price of our securities is volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Price volatility may be greater if the public float and/or trading volume of the Class A Common Stock is low.
Previous wording
The dual class structure of our Common Stock has the effect of concentrating voting control with the holders of our Class B Common Stock, most of whom are our directors or management; this will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters.
Current wording

Previous wording
Our Class B Common Stock has ten votes per share and Class A Common Stock has one vote per share. Stockholders who hold shares of Class B Common Stock, including certain of our executive officers and directors and their affiliates, together hold a substantial majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. Because of the ten-to-one voting ratio between the Class B Common Stock and the Class A Common Stock, the holders of Class B Common Stock collectively control a majority of the combined voting power of the Common Stock and therefore are able to control all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval. This concentrated control will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters for the foreseeable future.
Current wording
Our Class B Common Stock has ten votes per share and Class A Common Stock has one vote per share. Stockholders who hold shares of Class B Common Stock, including certain of our executive officers and directors and their affiliates, together hold a substantial portion of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. Because of the ten-to-one voting ratio between the Class B Common Stock and the Class A Common Stock, the holders of Class B Common Stock collectively control a substantial portion of the combined voting power of the Common Stock and therefore may be able to significantly influence matters submitted to our stockholders for approval. This may limit the ability of holders of our Class A Common Stock to influence corporate matters.
Previous wording
Transfers by holders of Class B Common Stock will generally result in those shares automatically converting to Class A Common Stock, subject to limited exceptions, such as certain transfers effected for estate planning or charitable purposes. The conversion of Class B Common Stock to Class A Common Stock will have the effect, over time, of increasing the relative voting power of those holders of Class B Common Stock who retain their shares of Class B Common Stock until the automatic conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock after the seventh anniversary of December 21, 2023.

Previous wording
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Class A Common Stock and may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares of our Class A Common Stock at a time and price that investors deem appropriate.

In October 2025, we entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (“Manager”) under which we may offer and sell, from time to time at our sole discretion, up to $15.8 million in shares of our Class A Common Stock through the Manager acting in its capacity as our sales agent.

On April 15, 2024, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act with the SEC to register shares of our Class A Common Stock that may be issued under our equity incentive plans from time to time, as well as any shares of our Class A Common Stock underlying outstanding options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that have been granted or promised to our directors, executive officers and other employees, all of which are subject to time-based vesting conditions. Shares registered under these registration statements will be available for sale in the public market upon issuance subject to vesting arrangements and exercise of options, as well as Rule 144 in the case of our affiliates.

Sales of our Class A Common Stock as restrictions end or pursuant to registration rights may make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. These sales also could cause the trading price of our Class A Common Stock to fall and make it more difficult for you to sell shares of Class A Common Stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate.

As of September 30, 2024, we have warrants outstanding, which are exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 18,675,800 shares of our Class A Common Stock for prices ranging from $0.01 to $5.79 per share (subject to adjustments as set forth in the applicable warrants). To the extent such warrants are exercised, additional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to the holders of Class A Common Stock and will increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market or the fact that such warrants may be exercised could adversely affect the market price of Class A Common Stock.

Our Charter and Bylaws provide, that: (i) unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware) will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or employee of us to us or the stockholders, (c) any civil action to interpret, apply or enforce any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, (d) any civil action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the provisions of the Charter or the Bylaws or (e) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in all cases, subject to the court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants, provided, however, that the foregoing would not apply to any causes of action arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; (ii) unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, provided, however, that the foregoing will not apply to any action asserting claims under the Exchange Act; (iii) any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of us will be deemed to have notice of and consented to these provisions; and (iv) failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause us irreparable harm, and it would be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions.
