Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 –The Business
Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated in February 1984. The Company is a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government and commercial operation. Since April 2016, the Company’s primary business has been to provide products, services, and solutions to the drone industry. Beginning in January 2020, the Company expanded the scope of its drone products and services through five acquisitions, including:
| A. | In January 2020, the Company acquired Rotor Riot, a provider of First Person View (“FPV”) drones and equipment, primarily to consumers. The purchase price was $1,995,114. Rotor Riot was sold in February 2024 to Unusual Machines. |
| B. | In November 2020, the Company acquired Fat Shark Holdings, Ltd. (“Fat Shark”), a provider of FPV video goggles to the drone industry. The purchase price was $8,354,076. Fat Shark was sold in February 2024 to Unusual Machines. |
| C. | In May 2021, the Company acquired Skypersonic which provided hardware and software solutions that enable drones to complete inspection services in locations where GPS is either denied or not available, yet still record and transmit data even while being operated from thousands of miles away. The purchase price was $2,791,012. Skypersonic’s technology has been redirected to military applications and its operations consolidated into Teal. |
| D. | In August 2021, the Company acquired Teal Drones, Inc. (“Teal”), a leader in commercial and government Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (“UAV”) technology. The purchase price was $10,011,279. |
| E. | In September 2024, the Company acquired FlightWave Aerospace Systems Corporation, an industry-leading provider of VTOL drone, sensor and software solutions, under an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”). As part of the acquisition, the Company created a new subsidiary, FW Acquisition Inc. (“FlightWave”) for ongoing operations. The purchase price was $14,000,000. See Note 3 for additional information. |
Note 2 –Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation with respect to the interim financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the eight month transition period ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s Transition Report on Form 10-KT.
Principles of Consolidation –Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries which include Teal, FlightWave (beginning on September 5, 2024), Skypersonic, as well as Rotor Riot and Fat Shark through the sale date of February 16, 2024. Non-majority owned investments, including the formerly wholly owned subsidiaries Rotor Riot and Fat Shark, were accounted for using the equity method when the Company was able to significantly influence the operating policies of the investee. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The Consumer segment businesses are characterized as discontinued operations in these financial statements. The operating results and cash flows of discontinued operations are separately stated in those respective financial statements. See Note 4.
Use of Estimates –The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates reflected in these financial statements include those used to (i) complete purchase price accounting for acquisitions, (ii) the evaluation of long-term assets, including goodwill, for impairment, (iii) the evaluation of other-than-temporary-impairment of equity method investments, and (iv) valuations of convertible notes payable.
**Concentration of Credit Risk **– Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, include trade receivables. In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers. Accordingly, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, generally does not require collateral and considers the credit risk profile of the customer from which the receivable is due in further evaluating collection risk. Customers that accounted for 10% or greater of accounts receivable, net as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Customer A | 33% | - * |
| Customer B | 27% | - * |
| Customer C | 17% | - * |
| Customer D | - * | 36% |
| Customer E | - * | 17% |
| Customer F | - * | 15% |
| * | Accounts Receivable was less than 10% |
|---|
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, three customers accounted for equal to or greater than 10% of total revenue, totaling 31%26% and 17%, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, three customers accounted for equal to or greater than 10% of total revenue, totaling 33%22% and 20%, respectively. The Company does not believe the loss of one or more of these customers would be significant to operations.
Fair Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities, and Related Disclosures – The fair value measurements and disclosure guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with this guidance, the Company has categorized its recurring basis financial assets and liabilities into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2: Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.
The Company’s financial instruments mainly consist of cash, accounts receivable, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and convertible notes payable. The recorded carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable are considered to approximate their estimated fair values due to their short-term nature. Liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets consist of convertible notes payable. These items are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Fair value is defined as the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments at fair value based on the fair value hierarchy for each class of instrument:
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Convertible notes payable | $— | $— | $25,132,556 | $25,132,556 |
Convertible Notes Payable
The Company measures its convertible notes payable at fair value based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which caused them to be classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the fair value of the convertible notes payable related to updated assumptions and estimates were recognized as a convertible notes payable fair value adjustment within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
In determining the fair value of the convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2025, the Company used a market-based approach. The valuation method utilized a negotiated discount rate and a market yield rate which are unobservable inputs.
An increase or decrease in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material increase or decrease in the estimated fair value. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value.
The Company calculated the estimated fair value of the convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2025 using the following assumptions:
| Issuance date | 2/10/2025 |
|---|---|
| Maturity date | 2/10/2026 |
| Stock price | 5.88 |
| Expected volatility factor | 124.8% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.08% |
The following table presents changes in the Level 3 convertible notes payable measured at fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2025:
| Balance, January 1, 2025 | $— |
|---|---|
| Additions | 14,432,879 |
| Fair value measurement adjustments | 10,699,677 |
| Balance, March 31, 2025 | $25,132,556 |
Warrants
The fair value of the warrants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The significant unobservable inputs for the Monte Carlo model include the stock price, exercise price, risk-free rate of return, time to expiration, and the volatility. An increase or decrease in the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material increase or decrease in the estimated fair value. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value. Additionally, if certain provisions are triggered, reset adjustments may be required in the future. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, no value was assigned to the warrants due to the fair market value of the convertible note payable being in excess of the proceeds received.
Revenue Recognition – The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. This standard includes a comprehensive evaluation of factors to be considered regarding revenue recognition including (i) identifying the promised goods, (ii) evaluating performance obligations, (iii) measuring the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations if there are multiple components, and (v) recognizing revenue as each obligation is satisfied. The Company’s revenue transactions include the shipment of goods to customers as orders are fulfilled, completion of non-recurring engineering, completion of training, and customer support services. The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of product or prototypes unless otherwise specified in the purchase order or contract. Customer deposits totaled $220,517 and $227,484 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by revenue type:
| Three months ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Product related | $1,629,662 | $6,614,029 |
| Contract related | — | — |
| Total | $1,629,662 | $6,614,029 |
**Product Warranty -**The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based upon both current and historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. Product warranty reserves are recorded in current liabilities under accrued expenses. Warranty liability was $642,401 and $661,357 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements –Management does not believe that recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share – Basic and diluted net loss per share has been calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share of common stock because they were anti-dilutive. The conversion or exercise of these common stock equivalents would dilute earnings per share if we become profitable in the future. Outstanding securities not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive include:
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Series B Preferred Stock, as converted | 3,896 | 3,896 |
| Stock options | 5,011,820 | 5,242,308 |
| Warrants | 1,831,433 | 914,056 |
| Restricted stock | 1,272,599 | 1,544,027 |
| Total | 8,119,748 | 7,704,287 |
Related Parties – Parties are considered to be related to us if they have control or significant influence, directly or indirectly, over us, including key management personnel and members of the Board of Directors or are direct relatives of key management personnel of members of the Board of Directors. Related Party transactions are disclosed in Note 18.
Liquidity and Going Concern –The Company has never been profitable and has incurred net losses related to acquisitions, as well as costs incurred to pursue its long-term growth strategy. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $23,123,351 and used cash in operating activities of $15,907,737. As of March 31, 2025, working capital totaled $506,116. These financial results and our financial position at March 31, 2025 raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has recently taken actions to strengthen its liquidity through additional financings. Additionally, in November 2024, the Company was selected as the winner of the U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) Program of Record which the Company is currently in negotiations regarding the initial purchase. The Company is currently in the process of scaling our production manufacturing facility in order to increase revenue and improve gross margins in hopes to increase cash flows from operations. As described in Note 12, the Company closed financings with proceeds of $7,681,000, $5,775,000, $14,432,880 in September 2024, November 2024, and February 2025, respectively. Additionally, the Company’s Form S-3 became effective on December 11, 2024 and as described in Note 19, on April 10, 2025, the Company raised an additional $30 million. Management has concluded that these recent positive developments alleviate any substantial doubt about our ability to continue our operations, and meet our financial obligations, for twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued.
Note 3 –Business Combination
On September 4, 2024, the Company entered into the APA with FlightWave Aerospace Systems Corporation (the “Seller”) to broaden the Company’s range of drone products. The seller sold certain assets used in designing, developing, manufacturing, and selling long range, AI-powered UAVs for commercial use. Pursuant to the APA, the Company has acquired substantially all of the assets owned, controlled or used by the Seller for an aggregate purchase price of $14,000,000 worth of shares of the Company’s common stock, and as such, the asset purchase will be treated as a business combination. The purchase price is payable as follows:
| ● | $7 million worth of the Company’s common stock issued on September 30, 2024, totaling 2,544,991 shares, equal to the VWAP on such date. |
| ● | $7 million worth of the Company’s common stock issued on December 31, 2024, totaling 819,830 shares, equal to the VWAP on such date. |
Goodwill for FlightWave is ascribed to existing relationships with several U.S. government agencies including classification as approved vendors. The Company has reported net losses since its inception and is presently unable to determine when and if the tax benefit of this deduction will be realized.
The summary of the purchase price and its related allocation at fair market value is as follows:
| Shares issued | $14,000,000 |
|---|---|
| Total Purchase Price | $14,000,000 |
| Assets acquired | |

| Customer deposits | 196,476 |
| Operating lease liabilities | 158,139 |
| Total liabilities assumed | 619,108 |
| Total fair value of net assets acquired | $14,000,000 |

The carrying value of brand name is not being amortized but is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end for impairment. Customer relationships and proprietary technology are being amortized over seven years. Backlog is being amortized over two years. The excess of the purchase price above the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill which is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end.

Note 4 –Divestiture of Consumer Segment
On February 16, 2024, the Company closed the sale of Rotor Riot and Fat Shark to Unusual Machines. The sale was conducted pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated November 21, 2022, as amended on April 13, 2023, July 10, 2023, and December 11, 2023 (the “SPA”). The transaction closed concurrently with UMAC’s initial public offering and listing on the NYSE American exchange (“IPO”) under the symbol “UMAC.”
The total consideration received by the Company was valued at $20 million and consisted of i) $1 million in cash, ii) $2 million in a secured promissory note (“Promissory Note”), iii) $17 million in securities of Unusual Machines, and iv) a post-closing adjustment for excess working capital.
Secured Promissory Note
The Promissory Note from Unusual Machines bore interest at a rate of 8% per year, was due 18 months from the date of issue, and required monthly payments of interest due in arrears on the 15th day of each month.
Unusual Machines Securities
The $17 million worth of UMAC common stock was valued at the IPO price for UMAC’s common stock of $4.00 per share, resulting in 4,250,000 shares of UMAC common stock being issued to the Company (representing approximately 49% of UMAC’s issued and outstanding common stock after giving effect to the IPO and to the issuance of common stock to the Company upon closing of the IPO).
Working Capital
The purchase price was adjusted for working capital as of the closing date. Actual working capital excess amounts increased the principal amount of the Promissory Note dollar for dollar. Working capital as of closing was finalized at $2 million in July 2024. As a result, UMAC issued the Company $4,000,000 of its 8% Promissory Notes due November 30, 2025 reflecting (i) satisfaction and settlement of working capital adjustments and (ii) a maturity date extension to November 30, 2025.

Note 12 –Convertible Notes Payable
In September 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “September 2024 SPA”) with Lind Global Asset Management X LLC (“Lind”). Under the September 2024 SPA, the Company received approximately $8,000,000 in funding from Lind in exchange for a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $9,600,000 (the “September 2024 Note”) and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of 750,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $6.50 per share, exercisable forfive years (the “September 2024 Warrant”). The September 2024 Note was secured by substantially all assets of the Company. As additional consideration to Lind, the Company paid a commitment fee in the amount of $280,000. The September 2024 Note, which did not accrue interest, would have been repaid in eighteen consecutive monthly installments in the amount of $533,334 beginning six months from the issuance date. At the Company’s option, monthly payments could have been increased up to $1,000,000 so long as the Company’s market capitalization was at least $50 million. In addition, if the Repayment Share Price (as defined below) was equal to or greater than $2.00, Lind could have at its option, increased the monthly payment amount up to $1,300,000 for up to two months. The monthly payments due under the September 2024 Note could have been made by the issuance of common stock valued at the Repayment Share Price, cash in an amount equal to 1.025 times the required payment amount, or a combination thereof. The Repayment Share Price was defined in the September 2024 Note as ninety percent of the average of the five consecutive lowest daily VWAPs for our common stock during the twenty trading days prior to the payment date, subject to a floor price of $0.75 per share. The fair value of the convertible note and related warrants were estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. No value was assigned to the warrant liability due to the fair market value of the convertible note payable being in excess of the proceeds received. In December 2024, Lind converted the entire $9,600,000 note payable into 1,476,923 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $6.50 per share.
In November 2024, the Company entered into a First Amendment (the “November 2024 SPA Amendment”) to the September 2024 SPA with Lind. The November 2024 SPA Amendment amends the terms of the original Securities Purchase Agreement with Lind. Upon closing of the November 2024 SPA Amendment, the Company received approximately $6,000,000 in funding from Lind in exchange for issuance of a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $7,200,000 (the “November 2024 Note”) and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of 326,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $9.20 per share, exercisable for 5 years (the “November 2024 Warrant”). As additional consideration to Lind, the Company paid a commitment fee in the amount of $210,000. The November 2024 Note, which did not accrue interest, would have been repaid in eighteen consecutive monthly installments in the amount of $400,000 beginning six months from the issuance date. At our option, monthly payments could have been increased up to $750,000 so long as our market capitalization was at least $50 million. In addition, if the Repayment Share Price was equal to or greater than $2.00, Lind could have at its option, increased the monthly payment amount up to $975,000 for up to two months. The monthly payments due under the November 2024 Note could have been made by the issuance of common stock valued at the Repayment Share Price, cash in an amount equal to 1.025 times the required payment amount, or a combination thereof. The Repayment Share Price was defined in the November 2024 Note as ninety percent of the average of the five consecutive lowest daily VWAPs for our common stock during the twenty trading days prior to the payment date, subject to a floor price of $0.75 per share. The fair value of the convertible note and related warrants were estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. No value was assigned to the warrant liability due to the fair market value of the convertible note payable being in excess of the proceeds received. In December 2024, Lind converted the entire $7,200,000 note payable into 782,607 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $9.20 per share.
In February 2025, the Company entered into another SPA (the “February 2025 SPA”) with Lind. Under the February 2025 SPA, the Company received approximately $15,000,000 in funding from Lind in exchange for a Senior Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $16,500,000 (the “February 2025 Note”) and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $15.00 per share, exercisable forfive years (the “February 2025 Warrant”). The February 2025 Note is secured by substantially all assets of the Company. As additional consideration to Lind, the Company paid a commitment fee in the amount of $525,000. The February 2025 Note, which does not accrue interest, is due in twelve consecutive monthly installments in the amount of $1,650,000 beginning two months from the issuance date. At the Company’s option, monthly payments could be increased up to $5,000,000 so long as the Company’s market capitalization is at least $400 million. In addition, Lind could, at its option, increase the monthly payment amount up to $5,000,000 so long as the Company’s market capitalization is at least $400 million. The monthly payments due under the February 2025 Note can be made by the issuance of common stock valued at the Repayment Share Price, cash in an amount equal to 1.025 times the required payment amount, or a combination thereof. The Repayment Share Price is defined in the February 2025 Note as ninety percent of the average of the five consecutive lowest daily VWAPs for our common stock during the twenty trading days prior to the payment date. The fair value of the convertible note and related warrants were estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. No value was assigned to the warrant liability due to the fair market value of the convertible note payable being in excess of the proceeds received. See Note 2 for further information. In the event the Company issues or sells additional shares of common stock at an effective price per share that is less than the conversion price of the February 2025 Note as amended, the conversion price upon each such issuance will be reduced to a price equal to the consideration per share paid for additional shares of common stock. Additionally, in the event the Company issues or sells additional shares of common stock at an effective price per share that is less than the exercise price of the February 2025 Warrant as amended, the exercise price upon each such issuance will be reduced to a price equal to the consideration per share paid for additional shares of common stock. The Company’s convertible notes payable balance at March 31, 2025 was $25,132,556.
Subsequent to the quarter end, in April 2025, the Company entered into the First and Second Amendments to the February 2025 SPA with Lind. See Note 19 for further information.
