SemiCab
Current report
Since 2020, SemiCab has enabled major retailers, brands and transportation providers to address their transportation needs. SemiCab’s Orchestrated Collaboration™ AI model has proven to increase transportation capacity, improve asset utilization, reduce empty miles, lower logistics costs, and provide visibility into the entire transportation network. Models show that the technology has the capability of reducing costs through optimization. Additionally, SemiCab’s technology has the potential to play a key role in the improved sustainability model. Based on its proven ability to improve truck utilization rates, this could result in a dramatic reduction in the carbon footprint of the industry. The optimization of existing truck utilization can add trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles which addresses common problems plaguing the industry like severe driver shortage and road congestion. Trucking optimization could also reduce carbon emissions attributable to road freight.

Strategy
Current report
Our SemiCab and Singing Machine businesses are each in very different stages of development. Accordingly, our plans for growing each of them are very different.
Current report
SemiCab is an early-stage business that is not yet contributing a material amount of revenue to us. We intend to invest in our SemiCab business to develop and grow it into a significant revenue producer for us. This will involve investments in the continued research and development of its technology, the hiring of additional qualified employees, marketing and advertising initiatives, and back-office support. While SemiCab is a nascent business, it has already acquired several multinational consumer products companies as customers. We believe that as existing customers experience the benefits of our SemiCab logistics and distribution solutions, they will begin to increase their use of SemiCab. We also believe that SemiCab’s proven ability to improve truck utilization rates and improve trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles will be of substantial interest to additional companies that can benefit from SemiCab.
Current report
We acquired the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024 and acquired the India component of our SemiCab business on May 2, 2025. We may make additional investments in companies operating in the AI distribution and logistics space that we believe are complementary to our SemiCab business. Our investments could involve an acquisition of the assets or equity of complementary companies or businesses, or could involve a strategic partnership or joint venture with complementary companies or businesses. We believe that additional investments could provide us with new AI logistics and distribution technologies, services and resources that we can implement across our entire SemiCab business, or could help us to more quickly expand our SemiCab footprint into other parts of the world. We are actively evaluating additional opportunities to expand our SemiCab business through investments in complementary AI logistics and distribution businesses and companies.
Current report
In contrast to our SemiCab business, our Singing Machine business has been successfully operating worldwide for decades. Our karaoke products are well-known and established with retailers and consumers in the countries in which we sell them. Our plan for Singing Machine is to continue to focus on customer retention through loyalty programs for the online and brick-and-mortar retailers offering our products and compelling offer promotions, discounts, and special deals to attract customers and increase conversions. We also intend to reduce costs through overhead trimming and the use of new selling and marketing methodologies, leverage data analytics to better understand new trends in consumer preferences for our products, explore new product features and product offerings, and support our new and existing products with fun and exciting digital marketing and advertising initiatives. We may also explore entering new markets that may offer more profitable avenues for our products.

Financial Results
Current report
We generated net sales of $1,993,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,426,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to the loss of retail shelf space at two major customers. Gross profit decreased $2,000 to $500,000, or 25.1% of net sales, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $502,000, or 20.7% of net sales, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was due primarily to the decrease of $433,000 for net sales, partially offset by a corresponding decrease of $431,000 for cost of goods sold associated with less products being manufactured for sale. Our operating expenses increased $521,000 to $3,310,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, from $2,789,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses incurred for the growth and development of our SemiCab business. As a result, we incurred a loss from operations of $2,810,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2,287,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.
Current report
We generated net losses available to common stockholders of $9,191,000, or $4.66 per share of common stock, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,367,000, or $73.76 per share of common stock, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. We had total assets of $10,461,000 and $18,302,000 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Net cash used by operating activities was $3,108,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2,557,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.
Current report
The most significant contributor to the increase in our net loss available to common stockholders was a one-time, non-cash charge of $6,468,000 for the change in fair value of warrants that we issued in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024. In that offering, we sold Series A warrants and Series B warrants that had certain features and were subject to certain contingencies that resulted in us having to record a warrant liability of $16,603,000 on our balance sheet at December 31, 2024. All of the contingencies that the Series A warrants were subject to were satisfied in January 2025, and all of the Class B warrants were exercised in full during January and February 2025. We re-measured the warrant liability for the Class A and B warrants on their respective measurement dates and adjusted the liability to fair value which resulted in us recording the non-cash charge of $6,468,000 for the change in fair value of warrants. The warrant liability was reclassified as equity on our condensed consolidated balance sheet for our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025. As a result, we did not have any warrant liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2025 and will not incur any further non-cash charges for the change in fair value of warrants.
Current report
Outlook
Current report
We expect net sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products to decrease over the next 12 months due to the negative impact on our business from recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China. However, we expect revenue generated from our SemiCab business to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business from our growing customer base in the United States and India. As a result, total net sales are expected to increase over the next 12 months. We expect gross profit to remain at similar levels over the next 12 months as costs of goods sold decrease commensurate with the decrease in net sales of our karaoke products. We expect operating expenses to remain flat, if not decrease, over the next 12 months as we implement initiatives designed to reduce general and administrative expenses, particularly those related to marketing and advertising initiatives. The reductions achieved may be partially offset by legal and accounting expenses that we incur as we engage in additional capital-raising activities as needed to fund our business and expenses that we incur to fund the growth and development of our SemiCab business. Net loss available to common stockholders is expected to decrease substantially during the next 12 months primarily due to the fact that we do not expect to incur any additional non-cash charges for the change in fair value of warrants, and due to the decreases in general and administrative expenses that we intend to generate.
Current report
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event we complete additional acquisitions of controlling or non-controlling financial interests in other complementary businesses or companies through mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic initiatives, such as the acquisition of the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024 and the acquisition of the India component of our SemiCab business on May 2, 2025, our financial results will include and reflect the financial results of the target entities. Accordingly, the completion of any such transactions in the future may have a substantial beneficial or negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Current report
Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024
Current report
Net sales consist primarily of sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products and sales of our SemiCab logistics and distribution solutions. Net sales decreased $433,000 to $1,993,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,426,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to the loss of retail shelf space at two major customers. We expect net sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products to decrease over the next 12 months due to the negative impact on our business from recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China. However, we expect revenue generated from our SemiCab business to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business from our growing customer base in the United States and India.
Current report
Cost of Goods Sold
Current report
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of costs for raw materials and the manufacturing of our Singing Machine karaoke products. We incurred only a minimal amount of costs in connection with our SemiCab business. Cost of goods sold decreased $431,000 to $1,493,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1,924,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. Our decrease in net sales of our karaoke products resulted in a corresponding decrease in products manufactured, resulting in lower manufacturing costs. We expect costs of goods sold to decrease over the next 12 months commensurate with the decrease in net sales of our karaoke products due to the negative impact on our business of recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China.
Current report
Operating expenses consist of selling expenses and general and administrative expenses.
Current report
Selling Expenses
Current report
Selling expenses consist primarily of marketing and advertising expenses that we incur in connection with advertising campaigns and online advertising initiatives that we engage in to generate sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products. We did not incur any selling expenses in connection with our SemiCab business. Selling expenses increased $134,000 to $764,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, from $630,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due primarily to an increase in online marketing and social media advertising campaigns. We expect selling expenses to decrease over the next 12 months as we engage in fewer, but more focused, marketing and advertising initiatives and as we navigate the negative impact of recently implemented tariffs on sales of our karaoke products.
Current report
General and Administrative Expenses
Current report
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll expenses, legal and accounting expenses, warehouse expenses and rent expense associated with our Singing Machine business, and general and administrative expenses incurred in the development and growth of our SemiCab business. General and administrative expenses increased $387,000 to $2,546,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,159,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due primarily to increases of $480,000 for general and administrative expenses incurred in the development and growth of our SemiCab business. We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease over the next 12 months as we implement actions designed to reduce general and administrative expenses. The reductions achieved may be partially offset by an increase in expenses that we incur to fund the growth and development of our SemiCab business.
Current report
Other Expenses
Current report
Other expenses consists primarily of a non-cash loss that we incurred for the change in fair value of the warrants in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024. We incurred only a minimal amount of other expenses in connection with our SemiCab business. Other expenses increased $6,456,000 to $6,468,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $28,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due primarily to an increase of $6,468,000 for the change in fair value of warrants.
Current report
Net Loss Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest
Current report
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest consists of the loss allocated to SemiCab, Inc., which owns 20% of the outstanding membership interests of SemiCab Holdings. SemiCab Holdings owns our SemiCab business. We acquired our SemiCab business from SemiCab, Inc. on July 3, 2024, and, as part of the transaction, granted SemiCab, Inc. a 20% membership interest in SemiCab Holdings. The net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of $103,000 represents the amount of loss incurred by SemiCab that was allocated to SemiCab, Inc. through its 20% membership interest in SemiCab Holdings for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. We expect net loss attributable to non-controlling interest to increase over the next 12 months as we continue to invest in the development and growth of SemiCab’s business.
Current report
Since our inception, we have funded our operations primarily through cash generated by our operations, private sales of equity securities and the use of short- and long-term debt. As of March 31, 2025, our cash balance was $3,296,000.
Current report
Net cash used by operating activities was $3,108,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,557,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $551,000 was due primarily to an increase of $6,927,000 for net loss and a decrease of $1,197,000 for accounts receivable. This was partially offset by increases of $6,468,000 for loss on change in fair value of warrants that we incurred in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024 and $892,000 for refunds due to customers.
Current report
Net cash used by investing activities was $673,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. We did not have any cash flows from investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $673,000 was due primarily to increases of $672,000 for advances to SMCB under our loan agreement with them.

Results of Operations
Previous report
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain items related to our consolidated statements of operations as a percentage of net sales as follows:
Previous report
Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
Previous report
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024, decreased to approximately $10,622,000 from approximately $15,931,000 representing a decrease of approximately $5,309,000 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower overall sell-through results during the prior year holiday season, mostly with our largest customer, Walmart, which in turn reduced their forecast for the upcoming holiday season resulting in decreased stock purchases.
Previous report
Gross Profit
Previous report
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased to approximately $2,375,000 from approximately $3,734,000 representing a decrease of approximately $1,359,000 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to the decrease in net sales as described above.
Previous report
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, total operating expenses decreased to approximately $1,118,000, compared to approximately $3,628,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. This represents a decrease in total operating expenses of approximately $2,510,000 from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The Company wrote off the remaining operating lease liability on the hospitality Lease Agreement due to a termination Settlement Agreement and recognized a gain on early termination of the operating lease of approximately $3,874,000 as the related right of use asset had already been written off as impaired in the previous quarter. Selling expenses decreased by approximately $516,000 of variable and discretionary selling expenses commensurate with the decrease in net sales as described above. These decreases in operating expenses were offset by increases in stock-based consulting expenses of approximately $426,000 and increased third-party logistics costs of approximately $213,000 associated with the closing of the Company’s logistics warehouse in the prior year. In addition, there was an increase in operating expenses of approximately $816,000 related to the asset acquisition agreement of SemiCab.

Other Expenses (Income)
Previous report
Other expenses consisted of interest expense of approximately $283,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to interest expense of approximately $53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in interest expense of approximately $230,000 was primarily due to interest incurred on debt from the recently acquired asset purchase of SemiCab. There was a gain on the disposal of warehouse equipment of approximately $44,000 associated with the closing of the logistics facility in California during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Previous report
Income Taxes
Previous report
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 the Company did not recognize any income tax provision. The Company is not recognizing any tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as the Company is not forecasting any taxable income for the current year and had a loss before income tax benefit in the previous year. The Company’s income tax expense differs for the expected tax benefit based on statutory rates primarily due history of losses and forecasts that suggest the Company will not be able to utilize any deferred tax assets in the future.
