In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in the Annual Report are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the information disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” contained in the Annual Report. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report*.*

We have a history of operating losses and going concern basis, and we may not be able to sustain profitability.

We were incorporated on December 4, 2012, and as of June 30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $34,015,113. Our current liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have assessed our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of the issuance of this Quarterly Report. We had a net loss of $2,765,036 and $2,757,026 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively and a net loss of $4,787,769 and $3,200,138 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, we had an accumulated deficit of $31,023,411 and $25,782,308 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and negative cash flow from operating activities of $5,102,771 and $4,656,754 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. If we are not successful in growing revenues and controlling costs, we will not achieve profitable operations or positive cash flow, and even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods.

Our failure to file certain financial statements in connection with the Property acquisition pursuant to Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X and Item 9.01 of Form 8-K will limit our ability to raise capital.

On April 27, 2026, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report the completion of our acquisition of the Property. Based on information available to us, we believe that the acquisition would qualify as a “significant” acquisition under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X and as a result, under Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, we are required to provide (i) historical audited financial statements for the Property and (ii) pro forma historical financial information combined to reflect the Property’s financial information (collectively, the “S-X financial information”).

We are not able to obtain financial information sufficient to be able to provide the S-X financial information. Therefore, there is limited public information regarding the operations of the Property and we are not in compliance with the requirements of Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X. We have requested a waiver from the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to such requirements, but there is no assurance that our request will be granted. Unless we file the S-X financial information, the Securities and Exchange Commission will not declare effective registration statements or post-effective amendments filed by us until twelve months following the date on which we have filed a periodic report with the Securities and Exchange Commission that meets the requirements of Regulation S-X, and affiliates will be not be permitted to make sales of securities pursuant to Rule 144 pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

We have concluded that we have not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting through the six months ended June 30, 2026 or the years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. Significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in our internal control could have material adverse effects on us.

Our management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were, in design and operation, not effective at a reasonable assurance level due to the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, caused principally by inadequate staffing and technical expertise in key positions, resulted in overly relying on outside consultants to make numerous adjustments to our financial statements. It is important for us to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, which is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting could adversely impact our ability to provide timely and accurate financial information. If we are unsuccessful in implementing or following our remediation plan, we may not be able to timely or accurately report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows or maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures. If we are unable to report financial information timely and accurately or to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures, we could be subject to, among other things, regulatory or enforcement actions by the SEC, any one of which could adversely affect our business prospects.

We expect that we will need additional future financing which may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

Unless we generate significant revenue from operations, we will need to raise additional capital to fund our operations, and we cannot be certain that funding will be available to us on acceptable terms on a timely basis, or at all. Unless our revenue increases from past historical revenue, our current cash, including proceeds from our recent completed public offerings and debt issuances, is anticipated to be sufficient to fund operations less than a year. To meet our financing needs, we are considering multiple alternatives, including, but not limited to, additional equity financings, which we expect will include sales of common stock, debt financings, equipment sale leasebacks, and/or funding from partnerships or collaborations. Our ability to raise capital through the sale of securities may be limited by our inability to utilize a registration statement to raise capital due to the late filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing certain financial statements related to the Property. In addition, even if we are able to disclose the required financial information, we will not be able to use a registration statement on Form S-3 until August 2027. In addition, our current outstanding debt holders have certain covenants restricting our ability to raise capital. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants (such as those in our current debt financing) that may impact our ability to conduct our business.

If we are unable to maintain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing standards, including maintenance of at least $2.5 million of stockholders’ equity, maintenance of $5,000,000 of market value of listed securities, if the new Nasdaq continued requirement is enforced, and maintenance of a $1.00 minimum bid price, our common stock may be delisted from Nasdaq.

There can be no assurances that we will be able to maintain our Nasdaq listing in the future. In the event we are unable to maintain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing standards and our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, it could likely lead to a number of negative implications, including an adverse effect on the price of our common stock, reduced liquidity in our common stock, the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws and greater difficulty in obtaining financing. In the event of a delisting, we would take actions to restore our compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.

On July 22, 2026, the SEC approved Nasdaq’s recently proposed rule changes to (i) adopt Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(6) to require issuers listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5005(a)(23)) (“MVLS”) of at least $5 million for a period of thirty (30) consecutive business days, and (ii) amend Rule 5810 to suspend trading and immediately delist from Nasdaq securities of issuers that do not satisfy the proposed new requirements, and Rule 5815 to set forth the procedures for requesting a hearing before a Hearings Panel and the scope of the Panel’s discretion. MVLS is generally calculated by multiplying the consolidated closing bid price by the number of shares of listed securities outstanding and, where a company has more than one class or series of equity security listed on Nasdaq, the values are aggregated. Under the new rule, if a company’s MVLS remains below $5 million for 30 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will issue a Staff Delisting Determination and immediately suspend trading of the company’s securities. On July 29, 2026, the SEC notified Nasdaq that it had received notices of intention to petition for review of the SEC's July 22, 2026 order approving Nasdaq's proposed rule change requiring listed companies to maintain a minimum MVLS of $5 million. Pursuant to Rule 431(e) of the SEC's Rules of Practice, the July 22, 2026 approval order has been stayed pending further review.

There can be no assurance that our MVLS will remain at or above the $5 million threshold for periods long enough to comply with the new standard. Our MVLS may be adversely affected by factors outside of our control, including general market conditions, macroeconomic uncertainty, sector-specific developments, investor sentiment, and volatility in the trading price of our Common Stock. Because the rule is triggered by 30 consecutive business days below the threshold, even a sustained but temporary decline in our stock price could result in non-compliance and the immediate suspension and delisting of our Common Stock.

If the new continued listing requirement is once again implemented as previously approved, unlike many other Nasdaq continued listing standards, the new MVLS requirement does not provide a compliance or cure period before a Staff Delisting Determination is issued. Additionally, a request for a hearing before the Hearings Panel does not automatically stay the suspension of trading. While the Hearings Panel may reverse a Staff Delisting Determination if it concludes that Nasdaq made an error, or in limited circumstances grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days for a company to demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq’s initial listing standards — which are generally more stringent than the continued listing standards — there can be no assurance that any such relief would be granted. A company may further appeal an adverse Hearings Panel decision to the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council; however, the company’s securities would generally trade in the over-the-counter market during the pendency of any such appeal.

If Nasdaq delists our securities from trading on its exchange at some future date, we would take actions to restore our compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below The Nasdaq Capital Market, minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s listing requirements. In the event of a delisting, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

The loan with East West Bank is secured by our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, and a default thereunder could result in us losing the pledged assets.

The loan from East West Bank has certain negative and affirmative covenants and is secured by our assets. There is no assurance that we will generate sufficient revenue or raise sufficient capital to be able to make the required payments under the loan. We and each of our subsidiaries granted security interests in all of our assets for repayment of the loan. Unless waived, any default on any obligations owed under the loan including the affirmative and negative covenants contained therein, could result in our assets being foreclosed. Any action to proceed against our assets would likely have a serious disruptive effect on our business operations.

Interest rates will impact payments we are required to make under the East West Loan w.

Our loan with East West Bank requires payments floating at the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus (+) 0.25%. If interest rates meaningfully rise we may not generate sufficient revenue to pay the required loan payments. Any default on any obligations owed under the East West Loan including the affirmative and negative covenants contained therein, could result in our assets being foreclosed upon.

We rely upon a limited number of customers, and a significant portion of our revenue was generated from rental income from our Property.

For the six months ended June 30,2026, we derived 35% and 26% of our revenue and accounts receivable from one customer. The loss of such customer would have a material adverse effect on us. A significant portion of our revenue for the six months ended Juen 30, 2026 was derived from rental income from our new Property. There can be no guarantee that we will be successful in operating the Property or that our expenses will not increase in the future beyond the revenue derived from the Property

We recently began operating in a new line of business, which may subject us to additional risks.

In April 2026, we acquired the Property, which generated rents that constituted our principal source of revenue during the quarter ended June 30, 2026. There are risks and uncertainties associated with our activities in the real estate investment business. In developing this line of business, we may invest significant time and resources. In addition, this business may require different strategic management competencies and risk considerations compared to those of our existing management team. External factors, such as regulatory compliance obligations, competitive alternatives, and shifting market preferences, may also impact our success in the real estate investment business. Failure to successfully manage these risks in the this new line of business could have an adverse effect on our other lines of business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Our acquisition of the Property may not result in the strategic benefits that we anticipated.

Our acquisition of the Property was intended to provide certain strategic benefits that we believe would enable us to bring value to our stockholders, including diversifying our operations by adding a new source of revenue and reducing our rent expenses. The market price of our common stock may not reflect the value of these benefits. The market price of our common stock may decline if we do not achieve the perceived benefits of the acquisition as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by us or investors, financial analysts, or industry analysts. There can be no assurance that these anticipated benefits of the acquisition will materialize or that if they materialize will result in increased stockholder value or revenue stream to the company.

Legislative, regulatory, accounting or tax rules, and any changes to them or actions brought to enforce them, could adversely affect us.

We are subject to a wide range of legislative, regulatory, accounting and tax rules. The costs and efforts of compliance with these laws, or of defending against actions brought to enforce them, could adversely affect us. In addition, if there are changes to the laws, regulations or administrative decisions and actions that affect us, we may have to incur significant expenses in order to comply, or we may have to restrict or change our operations.

We have invested in the Property, which as a real property asset is subject to laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and human health and safety. These laws and regulations generally govern wastewater discharges, noise levels, air emissions, the operation and removal of underground and above-ground storage tanks, the use, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous materials and the remediation of contamination associated with disposals. Environmental laws and regulations may impose joint and several liabilities on tenants, owners or operators for the costs to investigate and remediate contaminated properties, regardless of fault or whether the acts causing the contamination were legal. This liability could be substantial. In addition, the presence of hazardous substances, or the failure to properly remediate these substances, could adversely affect our ability to sell, rent or pledge the Property as collateral for future borrowings. We intend to take commercially reasonable steps when we can to protect ourselves from the risks of environmental law liability; however, we may not always be able to obtain or maintain independent third-party environmental assessments for the Property or any other property we may acquire. In addition, any such assessments that we do obtain may not reveal all environmental liabilities, or whether a prior owner of a property created a material environmental condition not known to us. In addition, there are various local, state and federal fire, health, safety and similar regulations with which we may be required to comply, and that may subject us to liability in the form of fines or damages. In all events, the existing condition of the Property when we bought it, operations in the vicinity of the Property, or activities of unrelated third parties could all affect the Property in ways that lead to costs being imposed on us.

Any material expenditures, fines, damages or forced changes to our business or strategy resulting from any of the above could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our investment in the Property is subject to weather- and climate-related risks.

In April 2026, we acquired the Property, which generated rents that constituted our principal source of revenue during the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The Property is located in an area that may experience catastrophic weather and other natural events from time to time, including hurricanes or other severe weather, flooding fires, snow or ice storms, windstorms or earthquakes. These adverse weather and natural events could cause substantial damages or losses to the Property properties which could exceed our insurance coverage. In the event of a loss in excess of insured limits, we could lose our capital invested in the Property, as well as anticipated future revenue from that Property. We could also continue to be obligated to repay any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the Property. Any such loss could materially and adversely affect our business and our financial condition and results of operations.

To the extent that significant changes in the climate occur, we may experience extreme weather and changes in precipitation and temperature, all of which may result in physical damage to or a decrease in demand for properties located in these areas or affected by these conditions. Should the impact of climate change be material in nature, including destruction of our Property, or occur for lengthy periods of time, our financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, changes in federal and state legislation and regulation on climate change could result in increased capital expenditures to improve the energy efficiency of our Property or to protect it from the consequence of climate change.

Our insurance coverage on the Property may be inadequate to cover any losses we may incur and our insurance costs may increase.

We maintain insurance on the Property. However, there are certain types of losses, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as floods or acts of war or terrorism that may be uninsurable or not economical to insure. Further, insurance companies often increase premiums, require higher deductibles, reduce limits, restrict coverage, and refuse to insure certain types of risks, which may result in increased costs or adversely affect our business. We use our discretion when determining amounts, coverage limits and deductibles, for insurance, based on retaining an acceptable level of risk at a reasonable cost. This may result in insurance coverage that, in the event of a substantial loss, would not be sufficient to pay the full current market value or current replacement cost of our lost investment. In addition, we may become liable for injuries and accidents at the Property that are underinsured. A significant uninsured loss or increase in insurance costs could materially and adversely affect our business, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

The business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition of the Property are affected by the performance of the real estate industry.

The U.S. real estate industry is highly cyclical and is affected by global, national and local economic conditions, general employment and income levels, availability of financing, interest rates, and consumer confidence and spending. Other factors impacting real estate businesses include over-building, changes in traffic patterns, changes in demographic conditions, changes in tenant and buyer preferences and changes in government requirements, including tax law changes. These factors are outside of our control and may have a material adverse effect on our business, profits and the timing and amounts of our cash flows to the extent these are dependent on the Property.
