Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED APRIL 30, 2025 AND 2024

1. Description of Business and Summary of Accounting Principles

Description of Business

Netcapital Inc. (“Netcapital,” “we,” “our,” or the “Company”) is a fintech company with a scalable technology platform that allows private companies to raise capital online and provides private equity investment opportunities to investors. The company’s consulting group, Netcapital Advisors, provides marketing and strategic advice and takes equity positions in select companies with disruptive technologies. The Netcapital funding portal is registered with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), a registered national securities association. Netcapital Securities is a broker-dealer registered with FINRA.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company’s fiscal year ends April 30.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries after the elimination of significant intercompany balances and transactions. The wholly owned subsidiaries are Netcapital Funding Portal Inc., an equity-based funding portal registered with the SEC, Netcapital Advisors Inc., which provides marketing and strategic advice to select companies, MSG Development Corp, a business valuation company, which was acquired in November 2021, and Netcapital Securities Inc., which was organized in 2024 and was approved by FINRA to operate as a broker dealer.

Reverse Stock Split

On July 29, 2024, following shareholder approval we filed articles of amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with the Utah Department of Commerce, Division of Corporations and Commercial Code to effectuate a 1-for-70 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, which Articles of Amendment became effective on August 1, 2024. The Reverse Stock Split became effective at 4:01 pm Eastern Time on August 1, 2024, and our common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis at the open of trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on August 2, 2024. Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, every seventy (70) shares of our common stock issued and outstanding were automatically reclassified and combined into one share of our common stock, without any change in the par value per share. Additionally, equitable adjustments corresponding to the Reverse Stock Split ratio were made to (i) the exercise prices of and number of shares of common stock underlying the Company’s public and private warrants in accordance with their terms, (ii) the number of shares of common stock underlying the Company’s outstanding equity awards in accordance with their terms, and (iii) the number of shares of common stock issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plan. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Any stockholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share instead became entitled to receive one whole share of Common Stock in lieu of such fractional share. Following the Reverse Stock Split, we had 718,934 shares of our common stock outstanding, which includes 139,781 shares of our common stock that were issued for rounding up fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split. All share and per share data in the accompanying financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates in a single operating segment, which is the provision of fintech services. This determination is based on the following factors:

1.Centralized Decision-Making: The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), makes strategic and resource allocation decisions across all subsidiaries and entities within the Company. This centralized approach ensures that the operations are managed as a single, cohesive unit.
2.Integrated Operational Ecosystem: The Company’s subsidiaries and entities operate within a unified fintech ecosystem, sharing resources, technology, and objectives. This integration reflects a singular operational framework focused on delivering cohesive fintech solutions.
3.Uniform Review Process: The performance of all entities and subsidiaries is reviewed as a whole by the CODM. This holistic review process supports the identification of the Company as a single operating segment rather than discrete financial segments.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income and the reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible.

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the tax authorities. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in income tax expense. The Company has determined that it had no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition or disclosure.

Revenue Recognition under ASC 606

The Company recognizes service revenue from its consulting contracts, funding portal and game website using the five-step model as prescribed by ASC 606:

●Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
●Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
●Determination of the transaction price;
●Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
●Recognition of revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company identifies performance obligations in contracts with customers, which primarily are professional services, listing fees on our funding portal, and a portal fee of 4.9% of the money raised on the funding portal. Beginning in fiscal year 2024, the funding portal also receives a fee of 1% of the equity sold by an issuer that utilized the funding portal’s services. The transaction price is determined based on the amount the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring the promised services to the customer. The transaction price in the contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation in an amount that represents the relative amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied.

Judgments and Estimates

The estimation of variable consideration for each performance obligation requires the Company to make subjective judgments. The Company may enter into contracts with customers that regularly include promises to transfer multiple services, such as digital marketing, web-based videos, offering statements, and professional services. For arrangements with multiple services, the Company evaluates whether the individual services qualify as distinct performance obligations. In its assessment of whether a service is a distinct performance obligation, the Company determines whether the customer can benefit from the service on its own or with other readily available resources, and whether the service is separately identifiable from other services in the contract. This evaluation requires the Company to assess the nature of each individual service offering and how the services are provided in the context of the contract, including whether the services are significantly integrated, highly interrelated, or significantly modify each other, which may require judgment based on the facts and circumstances of the contract.

When agreements involve multiple distinct performance obligations, the Company allocates arrangement consideration to all performance obligations at the inception of an arrangement based on the relative standalone selling prices (SSP) of each performance obligation. Where the Company has standalone sales data for its performance obligations which are indicative of the price at which the Company sells a promised service separately to a customer, such data is used to establish SSP. In instances where standalone sales data is not available for a particular performance obligation, the Company estimates SSP by the use of observable market and cost-based inputs. The Company continues to review the factors used to establish list price and will adjust standalone selling price methodologies as necessary on a prospective basis.

Service Revenue

Service revenue from subscriptions to the Company’s game website is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contractual subscription term beginning on the date that the platform is made available to the customer. Payments received in advance of subscription services being rendered are recorded as a deferred revenue. Professional services revenue is recognized over time as the services are rendered.

When a contract with a customer is signed, the Company assesses whether collection of the fees under the arrangement is probable. The Company estimates credit losses based on the aging of receivables, historical collection experience, and customer-specific factors, including recent communications. Estimated credit losses are recognized as operating expenses and recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable.

Contract Assets

Contract assets are recorded for those parts of the contract consideration not yet invoiced but for which the performance obligations are completed. The revenue is recognized when the customer receives services. Contract assets are included in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets and will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenues represent billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized upon transfer of control. Balances consist primarily of annual plan subscription services not yet provided as of the balance sheet date. Deferred revenues that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period are recorded as current deferred revenues in the consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder recorded as other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Costs to Obtain a Customer Contract

Sales commissions and related expenses are considered incremental and recoverable costs of acquiring customer contracts. These costs are capitalized as other current or non-current assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which approximates the benefit period. The benefit period was estimated by taking into consideration the length of customer contracts, technology lifecycle, and other factors.

All sales commissions are recorded as consulting fees within the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company’s subscription terms are typically less than one year. All of the Company’s revenues in the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, which amounted to $869,460 and $4,951,435, respectively, are considered contract revenues. Contract revenue as of April 30, 2025 and 2024, which has not yet been recognized, amounted to $330 and $466, respectively, and is recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue. The Company expects to recognize revenue on all of its remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Our revenue is from U.S.-based companies with no notable geographical concentrations in any area. A distinction exists in revenue source; our revenues are either generated online or from personal services.

Revenues disaggregated by revenue source consist of the following:

Year Ended April 30, 2025 · Year Ended April 30, 2024
Consulting services$-$3,633,900
Fees from online services869,4601,317,535
Total revenues$869,460$4,951,435

Costs of Services

Costs of services consist of direct costs that we pay to third parties to provide the services that generate revenue.

Earnings Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of vested, unrestricted common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the if-converted method.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents during fiscal 2025 and 2024. The Company uses three financial institutions for its cash balances and has maintained cash balances that exceed federally insured limits.

Accounts Receivable

The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, maintaining an allowance for potential credit losses. Accounts receivable are reported net of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s estimate of the dollar amount of accounts receivable that will not be collected. This estimate is determined through a detailed review process, which includes several factors:

1.Historical Loss Experience: The Company analyzes its historical write-offs to establish a baseline for expected credit losses.
2.Aging of Receivables: Accounts receivable are categorized based on the age of the outstanding balance. Older balances generally have a higher likelihood of being uncollectible.
3.Customer Creditworthiness: The Company performs credit evaluations on its customers to assess their financial health and payment history.
4.Economic Conditions: Current and forecasted economic conditions are considered, as they may impact the ability of customers to pay their invoices.
5.Industry Trends: Trends and conditions specific to the industry in which the Company operates are evaluated.

Based on management’s comprehensive review, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $353,455 as of April 30, 2025 and 2024.

Notes Receivable

The Company occasionally provides loans to other entities and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its notes receivable portfolio. An allowance for credit losses is established when necessary to reflect management’s estimate of expected losses over the life of the loans.

The methodology for determining the allowance includes the following considerations:

1.Borrower Credit Risk: Evaluation of the borrower’s creditworthiness at origination and during the life of the loan.
2.Historical Loss Experience: Review of historical default rates and recovery trends, adjusted for current circumstances where appropriate.
3.Loan Performance Monitoring: Ongoing assessment of payment history, covenant compliance (if applicable), and the borrower’s current financial condition.
4.Collateral Value: For secured loans, the estimated fair value and liquidity of the collateral.
5.Macroeconomic Factors: Consideration of current and expected future economic conditions that may affect borrowers’ ability to repay.

The allowance is adjusted as new information becomes available or as conditions change. During the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a charge of $174,400 and $0, respectively, to write off notes receivable that were determined to be uncollectible. These amounts were removed from both the notes receivable balance and the related allowance.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are measured at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The useful life is based on the term of the underlying agreement or the period over which the asset is expected to contribute to future cash flows. These assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment exist, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset group to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated. If the carrying amount exceeds those cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset group.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of funding portal technology acquired in a business combination. The technology enables the operation of the Company’s Regulation Crowdfunding, Regulation A and Regulation D platform and is expected to generate benefits over an indefinite period due to its ongoing user base and regulatory approvals. The fair value of the funding portal technology is estimated based on a market approach, considering the number of active users and investors, engagement metrics, and comparable market transactions. If the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount of the excess.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Authoritative guidance requires that certain assets be reviewed for impairment and, if impaired, remeasured at fair value whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Impairment loss estimates are primarily based upon management’s analysis and review of the carrying value of long-lived assets at each balance sheet date, utilizing an undiscounted future cash flow calculation. The Company recorded an impairment loss of $19,915,556 and $1,048,430 in fiscal 2025 and 2024.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation which requires all share-based payments to employees, including the vesting of restricted stock grants to employees, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and credited to common stock and capital in excess of par value during the period during which services are rendered.

The Company follows ASC Topic 505-50, formerly EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods and Services,” for common stock issued to consultants and other non-employees. These shares of common stock are issued as compensation for services provided to the Company and are accounted for based upon the fair market value of the common stock. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense, or to prepaid expenses in instances where stock was issued under a contractual arrangement to a consultant who agreed to provide services over a period of time.

Advertising Expenses

Advertising and marketing expenses are recorded separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and are expensed as incurred.

Equity Securities

All investments in equity securities are initially measured at cost. Cost is based upon either the cost of the investment, the fair value of the services provided or the estimated market value of the investment at the time it was acquired, whichever can be more clearly determined.

The Company has elected the measurement alternative for equity securities without readily determinable fair values. Under this alternative, if the Company identifies an observable price change in an orderly transaction for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, the Company measures the equity security at fair value as of the date that the observable transaction occurred. Any adjustments resulting from observable price changes are recognized in earnings.

The Company monitors these investments for changes in observable prices from orderly transactions and assesses them for impairment. If an equity security is deemed to be impaired, an impairment loss is recognized in earnings, measured as the difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value at the impairment assessment date.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments in several areas, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, valuation of equity securities, income taxes, and valuation of long-lived assets including intellectual property and purchased technology. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events, interpretation of regulations, and expectations about actions we may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public companies to provide additional disclosures on the nature and amount of certain expense line items, such as employee compensation, depreciation, and other costs, to improve transparency of operating results. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its future financial statement disclosures.

In January 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards. This ASU includes illustrative examples to clarify when profits interest awards or similar arrangements should be accounted for under ASC 718. The standard is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the applicability of this guidance to any future equity-based compensation arrangements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

Note 2 –Concentrations

For the year ended April 30, 2025, the Company had one customer that constituted 20% of its revenues, and a second customer that accounted for 11% of its revenues. For the year ended April 30, 2024, the Company had one customer that constituted 25% of its revenues, a second customer that constituted 22% of its revenues, and a third customer that constituted 22% of its revenues.

Note 3 –Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Net loss per common and diluted share were calculated as follows for the year ended April 30, 2025 and 2024:

Year Ended April 30, 2025Year Ended April 30, 2024

Outstanding vested warrants to purchase 556,973 and 614,533 shares of common stock are not included in the calculation of earnings per share for the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Outstanding vested options to purchase 16,943 and 9,889 shares of common stock are not included in the calculation of earnings per share for the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Note 4 –Principal Financing Arrangements

The following table summarizes components debt as of April 30, 2025 and 2024:

Less: current portion of long-term debt2,183,5611,920,124
Total long-term debt$500,000$500,000

The Company owes $34,324 as of April 30, 2025 and 2024 to Chase Bank. For the loan from Chase Bank, the Company pays interest only on a monthly basis, which represents a rate of 10.5% per annum as of April 30, 2025.

On June 17, 2020 the Company borrowed $500,000 (the “June 2020 Loan”), and on February 2, 2021, the Company borrowed $1,885,800 (the “February 2021 Loan”) from a U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loan program.

The June 2020 Loan required installment payments of $2,437 monthly, beginning on June 17, 2021, over a term of thirty years. However, the SBA postponed the first installment payment for 18 months, and the first payment became due on December 17, 2022. The monthly payments of $2,437 are first applied to accrued interest payable. The monthly payments will not be applied to any of the outstanding principal balance until 2026. Consequently, the entire loan balance of $500,000 is classified as a long term liability. Interest accrues at a rate of 3.75% per annum. The Company agreed to grant a continuing security interest in its assets to secure payment and performance of all debts, liabilities, and obligations to the SBA. The June 2020 Loan was personally guaranteed by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Accrued interest payable for the June 2020 Loan as of April 30, 2025 and 2024 amounted to $20,611 and $31,207, respectively.

The February 2021 Loan bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum and the due date of the first payment has been postponed by the SBA because the Company has applied for forgiveness of the February 2021 Loan. Accrued interest payable for the February 2021 Loan as of April 30, 2025 and 2024 amounted to $80,186 and $61,276, respectively.

On March 26, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with 1800 Diagonal Lending LLC (the “Lender”), pursuant to which the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $181,540 (the “Note”). The Note was issued with an original issue discount (“OID”) of $25,040, and the Company received net proceeds of $150,000 after deducting legal and due diligence fees.

As of April 30, 2025, the unamortized original issue discount was $19,753, and the Note was recorded on the balance sheet at its net carrying amount of $161,787.

The Note bears a one-time interest charge of 12% and was scheduled to mature on January 30, 2026. The Note required repayment in five monthly installments beginning on September 30, 2025, for a total contractual repayment amount of $203,324. Under the terms of the Note, the Company had the option to prepay the outstanding balance. On July 8, 2025, the Company exercised this option and paid the Note in full with a remittance of $197,225.

On April 29, 2025, the Company entered into a private financing transaction with a single accredited investor and issued an unsecured, non-convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $200,000. The note was issued at a 50% OID for gross proceeds of $100,000. The note bears interest at 8% per annum, matures on July 31, 2025, and is prepayable at any time without penalty. In the event of default, the interest rate increases to 20% per annum. As of April 30, 2025, the unamortized OID was $98,350, and the note was recorded on the balance sheet at a net carrying amount of $101,650.

As of April 30, 2025, future payments under debt obligations over each of the next five years and thereafter were as follows:

Twelve months ended April 30:
2025$2,301,664
2026-

Thereafter461,716
Minimum future payments of principal$2,801,664

Note 5 – Income Taxes

For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023, the Company recorded no income tax expense, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0%, due to taxable losses incurred during the year.

For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $2,339,288, representing an effective tax benefit rate of 32%. Included in the benefit is an employee retention credit (“ERC”) of $508,292, available under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The ERC is a refundable tax credit for eligible employers that retained employees during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company hadno material unrecognized tax benefits as of April 30, 2025 and 2024 and does not expect its unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly in the next twelve months. No interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax positions were accrued or recognized during the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax and various state tax jurisdictions. The Company’s tax years ended April 30, 2022 through 2024 remain open to examination by taxing authorities. Earlier periods remain open to the extent of net operating loss or credit carryforwards.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. The significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of April 30, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:

20252024
Deferred tax assets, net:
Net operating loss carry forwards$5,937,000$2,532,000

The Company increased its valuation allowance to $3,666,000 as of April 30, 2025, from $133,000 as of April 30, 2024, due to uncertainty regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, primarily net operating loss carryforwards.

Note 8 –Fair Value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures of financial instruments on a recurring basis.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable

In general, carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below as of April 30, 2025 and 2024:

Level 1Level 2Level 3Total
Equity securities at fair value$—$5,748,050$—$5,748,050
Equity securities at fair value$—$25,333,386$—$25,333,386

Determination of Fair Value

Under the Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company bases its fair value on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is the Company’s policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements, in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Fair value measurements for assets and liabilities where there exists limited or no observable market data and, therefore, are based primarily upon management’s own estimates, are often calculated based on current pricing policy, the economic and competitive environment, the characteristics of the asset or liability and other such factors. Therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, that could significantly affect the results of current or future value.

Note 9 –Stock-Based Compensation Plans

In addition to cash payments, the Company enters agreements to issue common stock and options to purchase common stock, and records the applicable non-cash expense in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board.

Note 10 –Deposits and Commitments

The Company utilizes office space at 1 Lincoln Street in Boston, Massachusetts, under an office membership agreement. The Company pays a monthly membership fee of approximately $6,600. The agreement is cancellable by the Company with 60 days’ notice. As of April 30, 2025, the Company had a refundable security deposit of $6,300 related to the agreement.

Note 11 –Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with defined useful lives are generally measured at cost less straight-line amortization. The useful life is determined using the period of the underlying contract or the period of time over which the intangible asset can be expected to be used. The Netcapital Funding Portal acquired brand of $532,118 is subject to amortization over a 15 year period. The acquired users valued at $14,271,836 have an indefinite life. Impairments are recognized if the recoverable amount of the asset is lower than the carrying amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of either the fair value less costs to sell or the value in use. The value in use is determined on the basis of future cash inflows and outflows, and the weighted average cost of capital. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, such as trade names and trademarks, that have been acquired as part of acquisitions are measured at cost and tested for impairment annually, or if there is an indication that their value has declined. As of April 30, 2024, the Company determined that the intangible assets associated with its acquisition of MSG Development Corp. and a website that focused on booking live video calls with retired professional hockey players was impaired, and the Company recorded an impairment expense of $1,048,430 for the year ended April 30, 2024.

The following table sets forth the major categories of the intangible assts as of April 30, 2025 and 2024.

As of April 30, 2025, the weighted average remaining useful life for acquired brand is 12 years. Accumulated amortization amounted to $106,425 as of April 30, 2025 resulting in net intangible assets of $14,697,529.

Note 13 –Going Concern Matters and Realization of Assets

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, as of April 30, 2025, the Company had negative working capital of $5,096,155 and for the year ended April 30 2025, the Company had an operating loss of $8,321,317 and net cash used in operating activities amounted to $5,339,211.

There can be no assurances that we will be able to achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or additional financing through private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support our working capital requirements. The Company has recently received approval from FINRA to generate revenues from Regulation A and D offerings to complement its funding portal business, which was the primary source of cash revenues for the Company. The Company plans to raise money from private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing, and was able to complete two registered direct offerings in July 2025 for aggregate gross proceeds of $8 million. In addition, in May 2025, the Company sold a convertible promissory note, a convertible bridge note, and a non-convertible promissory note for net proceeds of $52,000, $56,000 and $200,000, respectively. On June 10, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 118,750 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $4.00 per share in a private placement to ten accredited investors, resulting in gross proceeds of $475,000. In June 2025, under its existing “at-the-market program,” it received net proceeds of $944,067

The Company’s management has determined, based on its recent history and the negative cash flow from operations, that it is unlikely that its plan will sufficiently alleviate or mitigate, to a sufficient level, the relevant conditions or events noted above. To the extent that funds generated from any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing, if available, are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on acceptable terms. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Company’s management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the issuance date of these financial statements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its business plan objectives or be able to achieve or maintain cash-flow-positive operating results. If the Company is unable to generate adequate funds from operations or raise sufficient additional funds, the Company may not be able to repay its existing debt, continue to operate its business network, respond to competitive pressures or fund its operations. As a result, the Company may be required to significantly reduce, reorganize, discontinue or shut down its operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

Note 14 –Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

In May 2025, the Company completed the sale of debt pursuant to two separate securities purchase agreements with 1800 Diagonal Lending LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, under which it issued the following convertible promissory notes:

●A convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $61,360, for a purchase price of $52,000, reflecting an original issue discount of $9,360. The note carried a one-time interest charge of 12% and is repayable in ten (10) monthly payments of $6,872.30 beginning May 30, 2025. It matures on February 28, 2026 and is convertible into shares of common stock following an event of default, subject to a 25% discount to the then-current market price, subject to Nasdaq shareholder approval limits. The Company prepaid the note in full on July 8, 2025, with a remittance of $52,779 after having made two of the 10 scheduled monthly payments.
●A second convertible bridge note in the principal amount of $64,960, for a purchase price of $56,000, with an original issue discount of $8,960. The note also carried a 12% one-time interest charge and is repayable in five (5) monthly payments beginning October 30, 2025. It shares the same maturity date and default-based conversion rights as the first note. The Company prepaid the note in full on July 8, 2025, with a remittance of $69,845.

On May 1, 2025, the Company completed a private financing transaction with a single accredited investor and issued an unsecured, non-convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $400,000. The note was issued at a 50% OID for gross proceeds of $200,000. The note bears interest at 8% per annum, matures three months from the issuance date, and is prepayable at any time without penalty. In the event of default, the interest rate increases to 20% per annum. The note is due on August 1, 2025.

On June 6, 2025, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Netcapital 2023 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2023 Plan”), subject to stockholder approval (the “Amendment”), to:

Increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2023 Plan to 1,547,556 shares; and

Increase the evergreen limit from 5% to 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares, to provide greater flexibility for future equity awards.

In conjunction with the Amendment, the Company granted additional non-qualified stock options under the Plan to Martin Kay, Chief Executive Officer, and Coreen Kraysler, Chief Financial Officer, each receiving 100,000 options. These options:

Are fully vested as of the grant date;

Have a four-year term;

Have an exercise price of $2.68 per share; and

Are not exercisable unless and until the Amendment is approved by stockholders.

The aggregate grant-date fair value of these options, calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, is $822,900.

On June 9, 2025, the Company also granted stock options under the Plan to Mr. Kay and Ms. Kraysler, each receiving 55,000 options and an additional 45,000 options to an employee of the Company. These options:

Are immediately exercisable and fully vested;

Have a four-year term;

Have an exercise price of $2.68 per share, which was equal to the fair market value on the grant date;

Were structured to qualify as incentive stock options to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Any excess value over the $100,000 statutory threshold will be treated as non-qualified stock options.

The Company also entered into advisory agreements with members of the Crypto and Game Advisory Boards. Each advisor will provide strategic guidance, marketing insight, partnership referrals, and other services relevant to their sector expertise. The initial term of each agreement is eighteen months, extendable by mutual agreement. In consideration, the Company granted 783,722 non-qualified stock options to the advisors under the Plan, as amended by the Amendment.

In addition,80,000 non-qualified stock options were granted to one employee. All 863,722 stock options:

Are fully vested as of the grant date (June 6, 2025);

Are not exercisable unless and until the Amendment is approved by stockholders;

Have a four-year term from the date of grant;

Have an exercise price of $2.68 per share, the fair market value on the date of grant.

The aggregate grant-date fair value of the 863,722 options, calculated under the Black-Scholes option pricing model, is $2,293,000.

On June 10, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 118,750 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $4.00 per share in a private placement to ten accredited investors, resulting in gross proceeds of $475,000.

The subscription agreements for this offering contain a price adjustment feature. If the Company issues additional shares below $4.00 per share during the adjustment period, the investors will be entitled to receive additional shares to effectively reduce their purchase price. However, the effective price per share cannot be adjusted below the Minimum Price, which was $2.68 per share, as defined under Nasdaq Rule 5635(d).

Under its existing “at-the-market” program with H.C. Wainwright, the Company filed a prospectus supplement on June 23, 2025, adding $975,000 to its capacity under the ATM program.
