Current report

NextTrip, Inc. is an early-stage, technology-forward travel and media company operating at the intersection of premium video content and online travel commerce. Our strategy is to bring together premium travel content, global audience reach, proprietary booking technology, and concierge-supported travel services into a single, integrated ecosystem that guides consumers across the full travel journey—from inspiration and discovery, through planning, to booking and post-sale servicing. We refer to this integrated model as our “Watch. Scan. Book. Go.” content-to-commerce strategy.

Current report

We operate and report our business in two segments—Travel and Media—that are designed to function as a single, mutually reinforcing ecosystem. Our Media segment builds awareness and audience scale, generates advertising revenue, and channels high-intent travel consumers into our Travel segment, where those consumers transact through our proprietary booking platforms. The discussion that follows in this Item 7 should be read together with the more detailed description of our business in Part I, Item 1 (Business), the risk factors in Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors), and our consolidated financial statements and related Notes in Part II, Item 8.

Current report

Our Travel segment comprises our travel booking and commerce operations. It includes our proprietary NXT2.0 booking platform and all booking-oriented brands and products, including NextTrip Vacations (direct-to-consumer leisure), Five Star Alliance (luxury hotel and cruise bookings), TA Pipeline (group and MICE travel), NextTrip Cruise, the Groups Platform, the Travel Agent Platform, JournyGO (our agentic AI-powered “Watch. Scan. Book. Go.” booking ecosystem launched on March 31, 2026), and Travel Magazine Pro™ (our advisor-focused, content-to-commerce platform). The Travel segment also includes our PayDlay deferred-payment booking option.

Current report

Travel segment revenue is generated principally through commissions, markups, and service fees on travel bookings across hotels, vacation rentals, cruises, packages, and related travel services, as well as advisor-driven commissions and attribution-based fees through Travel Magazine Pro™. Product sales are structured either as commission-based transactions, where the supplier or wholesaler controls pricing (which is the case for most Five Star Alliance product), or under direct, negotiated supplier contracts in which we set retail pricing (which is the case for most NXT2.0 product). Commission-based travel is generally lower margin than direct-contract travel. Our strategy emphasizes higher-value travel categories—luxury, cruise, and groups—which we believe offer higher transaction values, repeat-purchase behavior, and stronger service economics.

Current report

Our Media segment comprises our content creation, audience development, media distribution, and advertising monetization operations. It includes JOURNY.tv (our owned global travel media network, into which we are integrating the GoUSA TV content library and distribution assets acquired from Brand USA in February 2026), our joint venture with KC Global Media for international expansion across India, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Australia/New Zealand, and Travel Magazine, our editorial travel content platform. We expect combined JOURNY.tv and GoUSA TV assets to support media distribution reaching approximately 250 million viewers globally in 2026 across FAST, OTT, connected TV, mobile, and digital platforms.

Current report

Media segment revenue is generated primarily through advertising, sponsorships, branded content, and destination marketing programs. In addition to direct monetization, the Media segment functions as a demand-generation engine for the Travel segment by engaging travel audiences at scale and reducing our reliance on third-party paid-marketing channels. We believe that as our audience grows, advertising rates and inventory utilization will rise, and our ability to convert viewer engagement directly into bookings—particularly through JournyGO and our perpetually licensed Promethean interactive video overlay technology—will increase the effective yield of our Media assets.

Current report

Our platform is organized around four core elements that, taken together, form the “Watch. Scan. Book. Go.” pathway from discovery to confirmed booking:

Current report

Promethean, our perpetually licensed interactive video overlay platform, is the connective tissue of this model: it embeds contextual advertisements and bookable calls-to-action directly within streaming video content, allowing viewers to move from JOURNY.tv into NXT2.0 transactions without leaving the viewing experience. We believe this integration is intended to reduce customer acquisition costs over time by leveraging owned media audiences, while also generating an independent stream of advertising revenue.

Current report

Several transactions and product launches during, and shortly after, the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026 materially expanded the scope of our operations and the basis for the period-over-period comparisons that follow. These developments shape the discussion of results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources in this Item 7 and are summarized below.

Current report

Our revenue strategy is built on two complementary streams that we expect, over time, to reinforce one another. The Travel segment generates revenue through commissions, markups, and service fees on travel bookings, with our higher-margin direct-contract inventory supplemented by broad third-party API content from suppliers including Expedia, Nuitée, Global Distribution Systems, and Signature Travel Network (via Five Star Alliance). The Media segment generates revenue through advertising, sponsorships, branded content, and destination marketing programs across JOURNY.tv (including integrated GoUSA TV) and Travel Magazine, with revenue per audience member expected to scale as audience size and engagement grow. We expect the deployment of JournyGO and the Promethean overlay technology to further enhance both streams by converting Media viewership into Travel bookings and supporting higher advertising CPMs through demonstrated audience action rates.

Current report

We are in the early stages of rolling out this two-segment model. While the products introduced to date are functional and have generated nominal revenues, those revenue streams remain small and variable relative to established travel industry leaders. Our ability to capitalize on the platform is constrained by the level of funding available for marketing programs. The timing of planned rollouts is therefore dependent on our ability to raise additional capital, although we believe that most planned programs can be delivered within approximately 180 days of obtaining the necessary funding.

Current report

We experience seasonal fluctuations in demand for our Travel segment products and services. Bookings on our platforms tend to be highest from January to June, moderate from July through September, and lower from October through December. Because revenue for most of our travel products is recognized when the travel takes place rather than when it is booked, recognized travel revenue typically lags bookings by several weeks to several months, with the majority of revenue recognized in the summer months (June, July, and August) and during the winter holidays (November and December). Our Media segment revenues are also subject to seasonal advertising market conditions, with advertising spend typically higher in the second half of the calendar year. The reader should consider these seasonal dynamics when evaluating period-over-period comparisons that follow in this Item 7.

Current report

We evaluate performance on a segment basis. Additional information regarding our Travel and Media segments, including segment results of operations and the impact of the fiscal 2026 acquisitions and product launches described above, is provided in the “Results of Operations” discussion that follows in this Item 7 and in the segment reporting note to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8.

Current report

For most items such as cash, receivables, and payables, fair value is straightforward because of their short-term nature. However, two obligations we assumed in connection with our acquisition of TA Pipeline LLC involve more judgment and could have a meaningful effect on our results.

Current report

Because the fair value of these obligations depends on factors outside of our control, such as our stock price and TA Pipeline’s revenues, the amounts we record may change from period to period. For example, a change in our assumed stock price volatility could change the value of the Put Option liability, while a similar change in projected revenues could affect the Milestone Payment liability.

Current report

Because changes in these assumptions can significantly affect the estimated fair value, our stock-based compensation expense could vary materially from period to period. For instance, higher assumed volatility or longer expected option lives generally increase the fair value of options, leading to higher compensation expense.

Current report

Segment reporting is considered a critical accounting policy because it requires management to exercise judgment in identifying operating segments, determining how those segments are aggregated into reportable segments, and determining the information reviewed by our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. Our determination of reportable segments is based on multiple factors, including the nature of the products and services offered, the types of customers served, the economic characteristics of each business, and the manner in which financial information is reviewed by our CODM. Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer.

Current report

In response to acquisitions and expanded business activities, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, our CODM requested changes in the information that he regularly reviews for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. This change was driven primarily by acquisitions completed during fiscal year 2026, including FSA and TA Pipeline, which expanded our travel-related operations, and JOURNY.tv, which expanded our media operations. As a result of these changes, we updated our internal reporting structure and, beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, we report our financial performance based on two reportable segments: Travel and Media.

Current report

Our Travel segment provides travelers with a full range of travel services through our NXT2.0 booking engine, which offers extensive inventory and a platform for curating personalized experiences and efficient trip planning and booking. In addition, Five Star Alliance provides luxury and cruise offerings, and TA Pipeline provides a group-travel agency platform for conferences, conventions, weddings, and affinity groups. Our Media segment consists of JOURNY.tv, a Connected TV Channel broadcast as Free Ad Supported Streaming TV (“FAST”) and Advertising Video on Demand (“AVOD”) that specializes in travel, adventure, and culture-focused content, and Travel Magazine, an online travel magazine that provides articles, tips, guides, and inspiration for travelers. We leverage our media brands as strategic tools to generate travel bookings by integrating content, marketing, and booking technology, as well as generating advertising revenues from third-party content.

Current report

Our primary measure of segment performance is Operating Income (Loss). Operating Income (Loss) for the Travel and Media segments includes direct expenses attributable to each segment, as well as allocations of certain expenses, primarily salaries and benefits, third-party contractors, sales and marketing, and technology costs. These allocations are based primarily on transaction volumes and other usage-based metrics. Shared corporate expenses, including accounting, human resources, certain information technology costs, legal, audit, investor relations, directors’ compensation, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and corporate development costs, are not allocated to the reportable segments and are included within Corporate.

Current report

Because the Travel and Media segments were newly formed during fiscal year 2026, the financial reporting framework supporting segment reporting continues to evolve. While the CODM currently uses Operating Income (Loss) in the monthly financial review process to assess segment performance, he is continuing to review and refine the nature, level of detail, and frequency of the financial information provided in order to determine how it will ultimately be used in decision-making, including resource allocation, budgeting, forecasting, and performance evaluation. As the segments mature, the metrics reviewed by the CODM, the cost allocation methodologies applied, and the presentation of segment information may change to better reflect how the business is managed.

Current report

The CODM does not regularly review asset information by segment, and as a result, depreciation and amortization are excluded from the segment performance measure. Accordingly, we do not report segment assets, as such information would not be meaningful.

Current report

The change in reportable segments did not result from a change in accounting principle, but rather reflects a change in internal reporting and management approach following fiscal year 2026 acquisitions and expanded business activities. Segment information for prior periods has been recast to conform to the current presentation to provide consistency and comparability across periods. Any future refinements to segment reporting will reflect changes in management’s internal reporting and decision-making processes rather than changes in accounting principles. When applicable, we will disclose such changes and recast prior-period segment information as necessary to maintain comparability.

Current report

Revenue for the twelve months ended February 28, 2026 was $3,715,528, as compared to $501,423 for the same period in 2025, an increase of $3,214,105, or 641%. The increase was primarily due to group travel-related revenues, a payment from Signature Travel Network as a result FSA’s membership in the Signature consortia, and commission income generated in connection with the Five Star Alliance luxury travel bookings. In addition, our Media segment generated $94,723, primarily from direct advertising sales and programmatic revenues.

Current report

Our gross margin for the twelve months ended February 28, 2026 was 18%, as compared to 1% for the same period in 2025. The improvement in gross margin is primarily attributable to revenue from FSA travel bookings, group travel bookings which have higher margins than NextTrip travel bookings, and direct advertising sales.

Current report

Our total operating expenses for the twelve months ended February 28, 2026 were $17,017,660, as compared to $7,416,731 for the same period in 2025, an increase of $9,600,929, or 129%. The increase was primarily attributable to stock options granted to former directors and an increase in professional services expenses, as further discussed below. Non-cash expenses, primarily consisting of stock-based compensation, stock options granted to former directors, common shares issued to third parties for services, depreciation and amortization, and asset impairment charges totaled $8,891,821, or 52% of our operating expenses for the twelve months ended February 28, 2026, and $1,142,204, or 15% of our operating expenses for the same period in 2025.

Current report

We incurred general and administrative costs of $202,774 during the twelve months ended February 28, 2026, as compared to $95,341 in the same period in 2025, an increase of $107,433, or 113%. The increase was primarily the result of (a) $58,958 in travel expenses incurred for conferences; (b) an increase of $36,594 for various compliance fees and minimum payments, and penalties for California state tax filings; (c) an increase in office equipment and postage of $4,648; (d) an increase in telephone expense of $7,009; and (e) an increase of $15,047 in bad debt expense related to uncollectable accounts receivable; partially offset by a decrease in rent and utilities expenses of $9,959 and a decrease in payroll service fee of $4,864 as a result of changing payroll service providers.

Current report

We incurred marketing costs of $486,739 during the twelve months ended February 28, 2026, as compared to $307,166 during the same period in 2025. The increase of $179,573, or 58%, was for (a) an increase in a consulting contract for marketing services of $30,204; (b) increased Travel Magazine expenses of $78,776 aimed at driving traffic and generating business across all of our brands; (c) an increase in media consulting expenses of $103,532 due to the engagement of a social media influencer agency; (d) an increase in contract labor $45,363 due to the completion of project based initiatives; and (e) an increase in conference entrance fees of $2,704. Partially offsetting the increase was a decrease of $69,620 in fees previously incurred from a former media advertising firm, and a decrease in advertising and promotional services of $11,386.

Previous report

NextTrip is an early-stage, technology-driven travel company developing an integrated travel booking and media platform designed to connect leisure, group and business travelers to the world. Our travel booking platform is powered by our proprietary NXT2.0 booking engine, which offers extensive inventory, supporting both travelers and distributors with a platform for curating personalized experiences and efficient trip planning and booking. We market our travel services through several core brands including NextTrip Vacations (direct-to-consumer leisure travel), Five Star Alliance (luxury and cruise bookings) and NextTrip Business (small-to-mid-sized corporate travel) and differentiate our platform through specialty features, including specialized widgets for our Groups Platform and Travel Agent Platform, as well PayDlay, a delayed payment booking option. Complementing our booking engine are our media properties, including Journy.tv, Compass.tv and Travel Magazine, which provide destination content that we believe will drive high-intention traffic into our booking funnel and, over time, constitute a separate high-margin advertising revenue stream.

Previous report

Our offerings include a mixture of direct contracts and third-party API content which span leisure and business travel, alternative lodging, wellness travel, and media solutions, engaging customers throughout their travel journey with both individual and packaged options. One of the key pillars of the NextTrip ecosystem is NextTrip Vacations, which is our core platform, powered by NXT2.0, delivering seamless booking and customizable travel options across airlines, hotels, cruise, ground activities, and more. We have enhanced our offerings to include luxury travel products and services with our recent acquisition of Five Star Alliance, providing travelers with curated packages and detailed trip planning information through an intuitive booking system and/or its concierge help desk. Such additional product offering highlights include:

Previous report

Our ambition is to build a next-generation travel solution for consumers, allowing them to better research and explore desired travel destinations.

Previous report

Our revenue strategy and business model focuses on integrating our Media and Travel divisions, offering users a comprehensive ecosystem designed to guide and support them throughout the travel experience. Presently, we generate revenue through two core methods: travel bookings and advertising revenue. Leisure travel bookings currently generate the majority of our nominal revenues. This includes the sale of travel products such as airline tickets, hotel rooms, and cruises as well as travel services such as travel insurance and ground activities. We also currently generate nominal advertising revenues through our media and advertising ecosystem. Our advertising revenue strategy is two-pronged: (1) as the number of viewers/users of Travel Magazine, Journy.tv and Compass.tv grows, it drives the advertising rates we can charge third-parties to promote travel products and services to our audience and (2) outside of the direct advertising dollars generated from our media platforms, which are expected to become a key driver of higher margin revenue than those earned from travel product sales, growth in our audience will provide additional opportunities for us to promote our own travel offerings to highly targeted viewers, thus lessening the need for spending significant marketing dollars through other mediums to attract consumers.

Previous report

We are in the early stages of development and roll out of our comprehensive travel and media model. While the products we have introduced to date (See above “NXT2.0 Platform Features – Existing Features”) are now functional and responsible for the current, nominal revenue generation of the Company, the corresponding revenue streams are currently both small and unpredictable relative to the established travel industry leaders. Our ability to capitalize on our existing travel technology platforms is severely restricted due to the lack of funding to drive marketing programs. Enhancements to the existing platforms along with the introduction of new programs under development (See above “NXT2.0 Platform Features – Features in Development”) are needed to complete the model.

Previous report

Receivables from NextPlay under the promissory note, as described in Note 1 – Business Description and Going Concern in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Report, were $0 and $1,000,000 at February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, respectively. Management has determined that, since NextPlay is in involuntary bankruptcy proceedings and is in default under the terms of the promissory note, collectability of the entire related party receivable as of February 28, 2025 is uncertain, and has therefore established an allowance for credit losses of $2,567,665.

Previous report

During the year ended February 28, 2025, we recognized revenue of $501,423 as compared to $458,752 in the same period in 2024, an increase of $42,671, or 9%. The increase was a result of the continued implementation of our booking engine and expanded product offerings.

Previous report

Operating expenses totaled $7,416,731 for the year ended February 28, 2025, versus $5,740,577 for the year ended February 29, 2024.

Partially offsetting these increases were a decrease in stock based compensation expenses of $48,638, a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $56,765, a decrease in sales and marketing expenses of $177,084, and a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $755,526.

Previous report

Salaries and benefits expenses were $2,630,663 for the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to $1,604,487 for the same period in 2024. The increase of $1,026,176 or 64% was the result of an increase in salary expense of $762,052 and payroll taxes of $138,669 due to an increase in headcount, and increased benefits costs of $82,125 due to higher insurance premiums and an increase in the employer contribution toward employee health plans, an increase in bonus expense of $40,000, and an increase in severance expense of $38,141. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in SARs compensation of $34,926.

Previous report

Stock based compensation totaled $67,874 for the year ended February 28, 2025, versus $116,512 for the year ended February 29, 2024, a decrease of 48,638, or 42%. The decrease of $75,368 was attributable to the accelerated vesting of employee stock options in connection with the reverse acquisition in fiscal 2024; partially offset by $26,760 in stock granted to a former employee as part of a separation agreement.

Previous report

The loss of $1,000,000 on the NextPlay promissory note receivable for the year ended February 28, 2025 is attributable to reserving the remaining balance on the outstanding promissory note receivable from NextPlay. Management has determined that, since NextPlay is in involuntary bankruptcy proceedings and is also in default on the note repayment, collectability of the related party receivable as of February 28, 2025 is uncertain.

Previous report

General and administrative expense for the year ended February 28, 2025 was $95,341, as compared to $152,106 for the year ended February 29, 2024, a decrease of $56,765. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in travel expenses of $10,141, a decrease in rent and utilities expenses of $4,257, a decrease in payroll expense of $24,925, and a decrease in office and other general expenses of $21,878. Partially offsetting the decrease was an increase in license fees of $4,436.

Previous report

Sales and marketing expenses were $307,166 for the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to $484,250 for the same period in 2024. The decrease of $177,084, or 37%, was primarily due to cost-cutting measures, including the absence of a Black Friday campaign in fiscal year 2025

Previous report

Professional service fees were $2,228,481 for the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to $1,421,508 for the same period in 2024.

Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in consulting fees of $125,178 due to the capitalization of development work related to Compass.tv.

Previous report

Technology expenses for the year ended February 28, 2025 were $843,296, as compared to $311,430 for the year ended February 29, 2024. The increase of $531,866, or 171%, was primarily attributable to an increase in dues and subscription expenses of $37,598 for external travel services used in connection with our booking engine, an increase of $207,333 in cloud database and networking expenses related to hosting our booking engine, an increase in Compass.tv expenses of $281,500 due to third party contracted services related to hosting and maintenance, and an increase in information technology expenses of $5,435.

Previous report

Organization costs were $213,613 for the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to $25,000 for the year ended February 29, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to directors’ compensation and shareholder services expenses, including transfer agent fees.

Previous report

The decrease was primarily the result of no new equipment purchases and an increase in fully amortized intangible assets as compared to the same period in 2024.

Previous report

Other expenses totaled $317,061 for the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to $156,522 for the year ended February 29, 2024. The increase of $160,539, or 103%, was primarily due to an increase in D&O insurance premiums of $170,924, partially offset by a $10,386 decrease in bank service charges as a result of a change in our merchant processor and lower processing rates.

Previous report

Other expense was $2,707,609 for the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to other expense of $977,480 for the same period in 2024.

Previous wording

Because we are at an early stage of commercial development and have only nominal revenues to date, our ability to implement our business plan depends on our ability to successfully expand our supplier relationships, attract customers, and secure adequate capital to fund marketing and future product development. There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Current wording

We are at an early stage of commercial development. We have generated only nominal revenues to date, have limited operating history at our current scale, and have minimal brand awareness in our target markets. Our ability to execute our business plan depends on our ability to expand supplier relationships, attract customers, and secure adequate capital to fund marketing initiatives and continued product development. There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Previous wording

Due to uncertainties regarding our ability to meet our current and future operating and capital expenses, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date of filing of Annual Report, and the report of our registered independent public accounting firm on our financial statements as of and for the year ended February 28, 2025 included in Item 15 of this Report contains a going concern qualification.

Current wording

Due to uncertainties regarding our ability to meet our current and future operating and capital requirements, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date of filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026. The report of our registered independent public accounting firm filed with this Annual Report contains a going concern qualification. We expect to continue to incur net losses and negative cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future as we invest in technology enhancements, supplier relationships, media content, and marketing initiatives. Throughout this Item 7, statements regarding operational achievements, integrated ecosystem capabilities, planned product rollouts, or growth opportunities should be read in light of these conditions.

Previous wording

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets, liabilities, sales and expenses in the accompanying financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those that require the most subjective and complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. By their nature, changes in these assumptions and estimates could significantly affect our financial position or results of operations. Significant accounting estimates that may materially change in the near future are revenue recognition, impairment of long-lived assets, values of stock compensation awards and stock equivalents granted as offering costs, and allowance for bad debts. Such critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in Note 1 – Business Description and Going Concern in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Report. However, we do not believe that there are any alternative methods of accounting for our operations that would have a material effect on our financial statements.

The Company assesses whether the life of intangible assets is finite or indefinite. The Company reviews the amortization method and period of use of its intangible assets at least annually. Changes in the expected useful life or period of consumption of future economic benefits associated with the asset are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortization method or period as a change in accounting estimates in profit or loss. The Company has assessed the useful life of its trademarks as indefinite.

Previous wording

Cost of revenue for the year ended February 28, 2025, was $498,121 as compared to $397,532 for the same period in 2024, an increase of $100,589, or 25%. The increase was attributable to the increase in revenue in the year ended February 28, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024.

Current wording

Our cost of revenue for the twelve months ended February 28, 2026 was $3,063,042, as compared to $498,121 for the same period in 2025, an increase of $2,564,921, or 515%. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in sales from fiscal year 2026 as compared to fiscal year 2025.

Previous wording

On May 6, 2025, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (the “MIP Line of Credit”) with Monaco Investment Partners II, LP (“MIP”) providing the Company with a $3,000,000 revolving line of credit. The MIP Line of Credit allows the Company to request advances thereunder from time to time until May 31, 2027, the maturity date. Advances made under the MIP Line of Credit bear simple interest at a rate of 12% per annum, calculated from the date of each respective advance. Accrued interest shall be payable on a monthly basis, no later than the 10th day of the subsequent month. The full outstanding principal balance, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable in full by the Company on the maturity date. The Company may, at its option, prepay any borrowings under the MIP Line of Credit, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the maturity date, without penalty. Mr. Monaco controls MIP.

Current wording

On May 6, 2025, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (the**“MIP Line of Credit”) with Monaco Investment Partners II, LP (“MIP”), which is controlled by Donald P. Monaco, the Chairman of our Board of Directors. Mr. Monaco serves as Managing General Partner of MIP and, in that capacity, controls MIP. The MIP Line of Credit provides a $3,000,000 revolving credit facility. Advances may be requested from time to time through May 31, 2027 (the maturity date) and bear simple interest at 12% per annum, calculated from the date of each advance. Accrued interest is payable monthly, no later than the 10th day of the following month, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest are due in full on the maturity date. The MIP Line of Credit may be prepaid in whole or in part without penalty. The facility is unsecured, contains no financial maintenance covenants, and does not include conversion features. The initial advance of $1,045,000 was used to repay (i) a $400,000 cash advance previously made by the Trust (the“Trust”**) and (ii) $645,000 of outstanding indebtedness under the Trust Notes. Subsequent advances through February 28, 2026 totaled $1,955,000, bringing total advances to $3,000,000 — the maximum amount available under the facility. Because the MIP Line of Credit is fully drawn as of February 28, 2026, it is not available as a source of additional liquidity for the twelve months following the issuance date of these financial statements, absent an amendment.

Previous wording

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K.

Current wording

Our material cash requirements as of February 28, 2026 consist principally of short-term promissory notes, accrued interest, and the outstanding balance on the MIP Line of Credit. Short-term promissory notes outstanding at February 28, 2026 had an aggregate repayment amount due of approximately $473,000 and a net carrying value, net of unamortized discount, of $386,072, with maturities ranging from March 30, 2026 through August 31, 2026, including the September 26, 2025 and October 24, 2025 1800 Diagonal Lending notes (which amortize in installments) and the October 17, 2025 notes issued to Kerry Kennedy and Allen Sanders (maturing May 17, 2026). The MIP Line of Credit has an outstanding principal balance of $3,000,000, with all principal and accrued interest due at the May 31, 2027 maturity date. Interest accrues at 12% per annum and is payable monthly. Subsequent to year-end, on March 24, 2026, we issued an additional short-term promissory note to 1800 Diagonal Lending LLC in the principal amount of $180,550, payable in five installments between September 2026 and January 2027 (seeSubsequent Events below). We have ongoing operating cash requirements for personnel, technology development, marketing, professional fees, and acquisition integration. Based on our current operating plan, we estimate that cash required to fund operations for the twelve months following February 28, 2026 will be approximately $5.5 million, which exceeds our cash balance at year-end. We do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures, and we do not have any material purchase obligations, take-or-pay contracts, or unconditional purchase obligations outside the ordinary course of business. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements (within the meaning of Item 303(b)(1)(ii) of Regulation S-K) that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

The Company assesses whether the life of intangible assets is finite or indefinite. The Company reviews the amortization method and period of use of its intangible assets at least annually. This process requires management to make assumptions and estimates which involve significant judgment. Changes in assumptions could materially affect whether an impairment is recognized and the amount of any impairment charge.
