Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms. These controls also ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Certifying Officers”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As of December 31, 2024, our management, including our Certifying Officers, supervised and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.
(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. This internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparing financial statements for external purposes under GAAP.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:
| 1. | Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and asset dispositions. |
| 2. | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements under GAAP and that our receipts and expenditures are made only under the authorizations of management and directors. |
| 3. | Provide reasonable assurance regarding preventing or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Due to inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any effectiveness evaluation to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” (2013). Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective due to the following material weaknesses:
| 1. | Insufficient Accounting Personnel: We do not employ an adequate number of accounting personnel to ensure proper segregation of duties and to conduct a tolerable risk assessment. |
| 2. | Inadequate Documentation: We have not adequately documented a complete assessment of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting. |
| 3. | Insufficient Controls: We do not have appropriate controls around provisioning of access including assigning business users to privileged access and lack of user access reviews. |
Despite these material weaknesses, management, including our Certifying Officers, believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented, in conformity with GAAP.
(c) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
We are actively engaged in remediation efforts to address the identified material weaknesses. These efforts include enhancing the supervisory review of our accounting procedures and increasing the number of qualified accounting personnel to improve the segregation of duties and risk assessment processes.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, we made the following changes to our internal control over financial reporting:
| ● | Implemented enhanced supervisory review procedures within our accounting department. |
| ● | Initiated the recruitment of additional qualified accounting personnel to strengthen our internal control framework. |
These changes are intended to help us in attempting to remediate the material weaknesses identified above and to enhance the overall effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
(d) Auditor’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As a smaller reporting company, this Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Under SEC rules, such companies can only provide management’s report on internal control over financial reporting in this Annual Report.
