You should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including information in the section of this document entitled “Cautionary Note Concerning Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’s Common Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Risks Related to our Financial Condition

Our auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our stockholders will lose all or some of their investments.

Rose, Snyder & Jacobs LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, has included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, indicating that our current liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to improve our liquidity position, we may not be able to continue as a going concern. This has continued as of the date of this Report.

We have sustained recurring losses and we have had working capital and stockholders’ equity deficits. These prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. In addition, continued operations and our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing in the near future and thereafter, and there are no assurances that such financing will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to generate additional funds in the future through sales of our products, financing or from other sources or transactions, we will exhaust our resources and will be unable to continue operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months.

In order to continue and fund its operations, the Company will be required to obtain additional resources through sales and issuances of equity to successfully execute its business plans and keep the Common Stock listed on the NYSE American. No assurances can be given the Company will be successful in raising additional capital, if needed, or on acceptable terms. Sales of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents would have the effect of diluting existing stockholders. If we are unable to raise the necessary capital on favorable terms, within the timeframes needed or at all, we could be forced to cease operations, and you could lose all or some of your investment.

Because we lack the required $6 million of minimum stockholders’ equity currently as well at December 31, 2025, our Common Stock may be delisted by the NYSE American.

On April 7, 2025, the NYSE American notified the Company that as a result of its failure to comply with the applicable continued listing rules including maintaining the required minimum stockholders’ equity, it determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s Common Stock from the exchange. The Company appealed the determination.

On June 25, 2025, we acquired our Water Assets by issuing the Seller shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series C contains a stated value of $20 million. Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, we accounted for this issuance by including $20 million of non-current assets on our balance sheet. On April 14, 2026, the Company rescinded the transaction and canceled the Series C in accordance with the provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement, effective December 31, 2025. If we can complete the acquisition of Medterra, we expect we will have stockholders’ equity substantially above the $6 million minimum requirement. We cannot assure you that we will complete the acquisition of Medterra or that the NYSE American will permit our Common Stock to remain listed both prior to the planned closing and after the closing of the Medterra acquisition.

Because we lack the capital to acquire inventory and market our products, we have generated no revenue in 2025 after the three months ended March 31, 2025, making our ability to remain in operation more difficult, and there are substantial doubts as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

As reflected in this the consolidated financial statements contained in this Report, we had only $442,732 in net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025. In fact, we did not generate any revenue in fiscal year 2025 after the three months ended March of 2025 due to a lack of operating capital which has hindered the Company’s ability to generate sales since that time. In order to generate material revenue, we estimate requiring at least $2,000,000 of working capital in order to acquire inventory and re-commence minimal operations. This does not include our plans for the Chispo tequila business which will require substantial additional capital. Specifically, management estimates needing approximately $500,000 to achieve its full year goals. In addition, we need approximately $3 million in working capital to grow our business, pay our current management, including benefits, an accounting consultant and the public company costs we are required to pay.

We have also entered into the Letter of Intent with Medterra contemplating a potential business combination with that entity. Assuming we enter into a definitive Agreement with Medterra and close the acquisition, we expect we will need approximately $10,000,000 to pay its indebtedness and the income taxes of Medterra’s investors and are working with capital partners and investors to attempt to raise an additional $25,000,000 at or subsequent to the closing of the proposed transaction to expand Medterra’s existing operations and sales inclusive of their participation in the recently launched federal CMS pilot program, additional working capital, and reserves. See “Risk Factors - Risks Related to. Our Business.”

Our lack of cash resources has prevented us from carrying on our commercialization activities. In addition, our lack of working capital has prevented us from marketing our products. Further, even if we can access the necessary capital, the Company must determine whether and what extent to invest such capital into various aspects of our business, including recommencing sales of beverage products, and we may be unsuccessful in developing and executing a business plan in this regard. Unless we raise enough money to not only pay our ongoing general and administrative expenses but also market our products and purchase inventory, we will not be able to remain operational.

We have experienced recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities and anticipate that we will continue to incur significant operating losses before reaching profitability.

We have experienced recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses related to our ongoing operations and generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. The size of our losses will depend, in part, on the rate of future expenditures, our ability to execute our business plan and our ability to generate revenues. We incurred a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $25.2 million including $14.2 million of non-cash items for the year ended December 31, 2025.

We may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays, and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our financial condition. Our prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. If our products do not achieve sufficient market acceptance and we do not generate significant revenues, we may never become profitable. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, for which we can provide no assurance, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Our failure to become and remain profitable would decrease the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, diversify our product offerings or continue our operations. A decline in the value of our Company could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

We may become subject to litigation in connection with our cancellation of the Series C that we had previously issued under the Asset Purchase Agreement related to certain water assets.

Following the cancellation of the Series C that we had previously issued to the Seller under the Asset Purchase Agreement related to certain water assets located in Costa Rica, the Seller may determine to sue us challenging our position with respect to such cancellation. Specifically, Section 1.04 of the Asset Purchase Agreement required the Seller to deliver the water assets by December 31, 2025 or pay the Company $20 million in cash, and further stated that failure to deliver either the water assets or the $20 million by December 31, 2025 rendered the Series C to be “null, void, and of no further force or effect.” As a result, the Company cancelled the Series C effective December 31, 2025. While the Company believes that it has adequate evidence demonstrating that the Seller failed to comply with either requirement, the Seller may nonetheless seek to sue the Company claiming that the Company was not entitled to cancel the Series C. Any resulting litigation which may arise from the foregoing could require us to incur significant costs and expenses, subject us to uncertainty with respect to our outstanding capital stock and any potential future transactions (including the potential business combination with Medterra), and divert our limited personnel and resources away from operational matters and strategic initiatives.

Risks Related to our Business

If we are unable to enter into a definitive agreement and close an acquisition of Medterra following our entry into a non-binding Letter of Intent on March 4, 2026 as described elsewhere in this Report, the Company and its stockholders will not receive the anticipated and intended benefits of such acquisition, and the Company would be forced to pursue alternative acquisitions or strategic transactions.

As disclosed elsewhere in this Report, we recently entered into a Letter of Intent with Medterra, a leading manufacturer and multi-brand operator of cannabinoid wellness products. Pursuant to the Letter, the parties agreed in principal on the terms of a potential business combination between Medterra and the Company, subject to due diligence and execution of a definitive written agreement and other applicable agreements, receipt of the 2025, audited financial statements of Medterra and customary closing conditions. In addition, the Company needs approximately $10.4 million of cash to close the transaction. The proposed terms for the transaction represent an enterprise value of Medterra of $37.6 million or the issuance of approximately 54,400,000 shares of Common Stock, which assumes repayment of its outstanding debt. This would represent substantial dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders.

While the closing of the acquisition would result in us becoming the parent holding company of a leading manufacturer and seller of cannabinoid products, the closing may not occur, including due to regulatory challenges arising from cannabis laws and the NYSE American requirements, our ability to raise the necessary cash and negotiate the definitive agreement, due diligence, the appearance of a competitive bid from another prospective purchaser, or the seller’s inability to maintain its operations for a sufficient time to allow the transaction to close, and other events and requirements that may not occur on favorable terms or at all and subject any potential transaction to substantial uncertainty. The Letter is non-exclusive and does not provide us with any recourse if Medterra were to decline to move forward with a transaction with us. The Letter also envisions us being required to raise a substantial amount of additional capital shortly following the closing of the business combination, which would further dilute our existing stockholders and could subject us to onerous terms that harm our ability to operate or pursue strategic transactions and alternatives. Even if we do acquire Medterra and raise the necessary capital to fund post-transaction operations in the future, there can be no assurance that such a development will yield the intended or expected benefits, result in sustained increases in prices and or volume of trading in our Common Stock, or otherwise create a meaningful return on investment or value to our stockholders.

Further, if we fail to enter into a definitive written agreement or a business combination does not close, all of the time and capital resources expended by the Company in such pursuit of such a transaction may be lost and unrecoverable by the Company or its stockholders. Unanticipated issues which may be beyond our control or that of the seller may arise that force us to suspend our pursuit of the target, including those referred to elsewhere herein. Such risks are inherent in any search for a new business and investors should be aware of them before investing in an enterprise such as ours.

Our strategic initiatives including acquisitions and divestitures may not be successful and may divert our management’s attention away from operations, and could create general customer uncertainty.

We have begun to explore strategic alternatives to our beverage business. Our growth strategy is based in part on growth through strategic initiatives including both acquisitions and divestitures of brands and assets, which poses a number of risks. We may not be successful in identifying appropriate acquisition candidates, achieving targeted values as part of a disposition, consummating an acquisition or divestiture on satisfactory terms, integrating any newly acquired or expanded business with our current operations, or separating a divested business or commingled operation effectively. We may issue additional equity, incur long-term or short-term indebtedness, spend cash or use a combination of these for all or part of the consideration paid in future acquisitions or expansion of our operations, which may not be available to us on terms we find advantageous or acceptable, if at all. In addition, subject to any requirements in the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness, we may have significant discretion in how we employ the consideration received in a divestiture and our management may not apply such consideration in a way that is ultimately accretive to our business.

The execution of our strategic initiatives will likely entail incurring goodwill assets or repositioning or similar actions that in turn require us to record impairments, restructuring and other charges. Any such charges would result in additional expense. We cannot guarantee that any future business acquisitions or divestitures will be pursued or that any acquisitions or divestitures that are pursued will be consummated.

Additionally, any acquisition or disposition (including the successful integration and separation of operations, products and personnel) may place a significant burden on our management and other internal resources. The diversion of management’s attention, and any difficulties encountered in such a process, could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

If we fail to successfully integrate acquired assets or businesses, or if integrated, failure to further the Company’s business strategy, may result in the Company’s inability to realize any benefit from such acquisition or other adverse consequences.

As disclosed above under “Business-Letter of Intent”, we are in discussions concerning a potential acquisition of Medterra contemplated by the Letter of Intent with that entity. Unidentified liabilities or other issues may arise with respect to the businesses and assets we have acquired or may in the future acquire, which could expose us to litigation, unexpected costs, regulatory actions and other negative events that could materially harm our business and financial condition. Further, we intend for = any such acquisitions to be a critical part of our business plan moving forward, subject to accessing the necessary capital, and such acquisitions may not yield the benefits expected or desired for our business.

In addition, even if we can access the necessary capital, we may face challenges in integrating and utilizing any acquired business or assets, particularly given any such undertaking will require the investment of resources to monetize and integrate into our other operations. Even if we can access the necessary capital to further these efforts we may be unable to effectively manage these efforts without incurring extensive additional costs or at all. This would put a further strain on our already limited personnel and resources. Further, the long-term commercial success of any such undertaking will depend on our ability to timely and in a cost-effective manner pursue and develop an infrastructure and network to obtain and distribute products in high quantities and in compliance with applicable regulatory and commercial requirements. If we are unsuccessful in navigating these challenges with respect to any acquired business or assets, it could fail to result in benefits to our Company, and we could be materially adversely affected by any of the foregoing events.

In general, the consummation and integration of any acquired business or assets into the Company may be complex and time-consuming and, if such businesses and assets are not successfully integrated, the Company may not achieve the anticipated benefits, cost-savings or growth opportunities. Furthermore, these acquisitions and other arrangements, even if successfully integrated, may fail to further the Company’s business strategy as anticipated, expose the Company to increased competition or other challenges with respect to the Company’s products or geographic markets, and expose the Company to additional liabilities associated with an acquired business, technology or other asset or arrangement. There are no guarantees that the Company will successfully consummate such acquisitions, and even if the Company consummates such acquisitions, the procurement of applications for licenses required to sell or distribute related products may never result in the grant of a license by any state or local governmental or regulatory agency and the transfer of any rights to licenses may never be approved by the applicable federal, state and/or local governmental or regulatory agency.

Demand for our products may be adversely affected by changes in consumer preferences or any inability on our part to innovate, market or distribute our products effectively, and any significant reduction in demand could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We aim to sell beverages comprised of a number of unique brands with reputations and consumer imagery that have been built over time. Our investments in marketing as well as our strong commitment to product quality are intended to have a favorable impact on brand image and consumer preferences. If we do not adequately anticipate and react to changing demographics, consumer and economic trends, health concerns and product preferences, our financial results could be adversely affected.

Additionally, failure to introduce new brands, products or product extensions into the marketplace as current ones mature and to meet the changing preferences of consumers could prevent us from gaining market share and achieving long-term profitability. Product lifecycles can vary, and consumer preferences and loyalties change over time. Although we try to anticipate these shifts and innovate new products to introduce to our consumers, we may not succeed. Consumer preferences also are affected by factors other than taste, such as health and nutrition considerations and obesity concerns, shifting consumer needs, changes in consumer lifestyles, increased consumer information and competitive product and pricing pressures. Sales of our products may be adversely affected by negative publicity associated with these issues. If we do not adequately anticipate or adjust to respond to these and other changes in consumer preferences, we may not be able to maintain and grow our brand images, and our sales may be adversely affected.

Volatility in the price or availability of the inputs we depend on, including raw materials, packaging, energy and labor, could adversely impact our financial results.

The principal raw materials we use include glass bottles, aluminum cans, polyethylene terephthalate, fiber-board, labels and cardboard cartons, flavorings and sweeteners. These component and ingredient costs are subject to fluctuation and environmental regulation. If there were to be substantial increases in the prices of these products, to the extent that they cannot be recouped through increases in the prices of finished beverage products, it would increase our operating costs. If our supply of these raw materials is impaired or if prices increase significantly due to tariffs or any other reason, it could affect the affordability of our products and reduce revenues.

If we are unable to secure sufficient ingredients or raw materials including glass, sugar, and other key supplies at acceptable prices, within a reasonable timeframe, at the locations needed or in general, we might not be able to satisfy demand on a short-term basis.

International trade developments, including tariffs and geopolitical conflicts, could adversely impact our business.

International trade developments, including heightened tariffs imposed by the United States under the Trump Administration on goods imported from various countries, tariffs imposed by foreign countries in retaliation, and litigation and uncertainties surrounding these developments, could adversely impact our business. Further, geopolitical conflicts such as the conflict with Iran and its proxies have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on supply chains and the costs of purchasing and transporting goods. We and third parties on which we depend source various supplies used in our products from foreign countries, and tariffs and other international trade developments could therefore result in inflationary pressures that directly impact our costs for manufacturing and marketing products. These developments could also adversely impact global supply chains which could further increase costs for us and/or delay delivery of key inventories and supplies.

Significant new or increased tariffs, import and excise duties, or other taxes on or impacting beverage products, including raw and packaging materials, such as on imports from Mexico and exports to countries in which we plan to sell our products such as the United Arab Emirates from which we source many of our supplies for our products, and any additional retaliatory tariffs imposed by those governments on products imported into the U.S., could have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations. These developments continue to pose a significant risk to our business as well as the U.S. and global economies, including by shifting consumer behaviors, inhibiting sales, increasing costs, causing further economic and supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures, and reducing economic activity. For example, if the costs of our products increase, we and our collaborators may be forced to increase the prices at which such products are sold, which could in turn reduce demand for and sales of those products, thereby negatively impacting our operating results. Alternatively, the heightened production costs would also have a negative impact on operating results even absent a decline in sales. Further, increases in the cost of oil and other resources used in the production and transportation of products could have a material adverse effect on the acquisition and use of such resources and gross margins.

The extent and duration of the tariffs and the resulting impact on our business and general economic conditions are uncertain and depend on various factors, including negotiations between the United States and affected countries, the outcome of the United States tariff litigation, the responses of other countries or regions, exemptions or exclusions that may be granted, availability and cost of alternative sources of supply, and demand for our products in affected markets. To the extent we need to locate new sources of raw materials and products as a result of tariffs, we may be unable to locate alternative sources on favorable terms or in the timeframes needed, and actions we may take to adapt to new tariffs or trade restrictions may force us to modify our operations or forgo business opportunities. Likewise, tariffs and import and export regulations could also limit the availability of our products, prompt consumers to seek alternative products, and provide an opportunity for competitors not subject to such tariffs to more effectively compete with us in markets where we conduct our business.

Our business, operations, financial position and timelines, could be materially adversely affected by government action and geopolitical conflicts.

Following President Trump’s inauguration in January 2025, certain trends and events have unfolded and continue to evolve and develop which are affecting and have the potential to further affect the global and United States capital markets and economies, including the inflation caused by the conflict with Iran, the continued high central bank interest rates, the imposition and threat of tariffs as well as subsequent developments and uncertainties surrounding tariffs, trade wars among nations and ongoing wars and geopolitical conflicts, and uncertain capital markets with significant volatility and declines in leading market indexes thus far 2026. The duration and scope of these events and their impact are at best uncertain, and their continuation may result in negative consequences on the U.S. or global economies.

The impositions of tariffs by the U.S. and any retaliatory actions by foreign countries, as well as refunds on tariffs following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling to strike down certain tariffs, could contribute to higher inflation and reduced economic activity for a prolonged period of time, thereby delaying any rate reductions or potentially resulting in rate increases in the future, as well as reduced demand for mortgages. Similarly, the wars in the Middle East and the Ukraine could also contribute to increased and prolonged inflation including by increasing the price of oil and causing adverse impacts on supply chains. These uncertainties and developments could result in supply chain issues, higher prices for goods and services or other adverse consequences on us and our vendors. In addition, these events come with an increased probability for an economic downturn or recession by making it more difficult for businesses to borrow money and individuals to maintain employment.

These developments follow the increase in interest rates that began in 2022 as the Federal Reserve in U.S. and central banks in other jurisdictions have sought to combat inflation. While in the U.S. inflation has declined, the conflict with Iran seems likely to having another inflationary impact. Further many economists view additional increases in inflation as a likely or possible consequence of these developments. Uncertainty surrounding rising or elevated prices and concerning the state and prospects for the U.S. and global economies and capital markets in the near term remains and has amplified due to the factors described above. If inflation does not fall low enough and/or the Federal Reserve declines to reduce interest rates in the near term, or tariffs and related developments adversely impact the economy, the result could be tipping the U.S. economy into a recession. In the wake of these events, the U.S. and global capital markets have demonstrated substantial volatility in the first quarter of 2026, as many investors consider economic outlooks to be uncertain and consider the risk of a recession and a decline in the marketplace to be increasingly probable or imminent. Ultimately the economy may turn into a recession with uncertain and potentially severe impacts upon the public capital markets and us. Among the potential consequences could be a substantial decline in stock prices including ours, a reduction in demand for securities of public companies (which may be more prevalent for smaller companies such as us) and more difficulty for us to raise capital we need and accessing capital on favorable terms or at all as a result.

As our ability to continue to operate will be dependent on raising capital, any adverse impact to markets as a result of these developments, including due to increased market volatility, decreased availability in third-party financing and/or a deterioration in the terms on which it is available (if at all), could negatively impact our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, and/or prospects. The extent of any potential impact is not yet determinable, however.

We compete in an industry that is brand-conscious, so brand name recognition and acceptance of our products are critical to our success.

Our business is dependent upon awareness and market acceptance of our products and brands by our target markets. In addition, our business depends on acceptance by our independent distributors and retailers of our brands as beverage brands that have the potential to provide incremental sales growth. If we are not successful in the revitalization and growth of our brand and product offerings, or in maintaining and expanding upon the brands we offer, we may not achieve and maintain satisfactory levels of acceptance by independent distributors and retail consumers. Any failure of our brands to maintain or increase acceptance or market penetration would likely have a material adverse effect on our revenues and financial results.

Our brands and brand images are keys to our business and any inability to maintain a positive brand image could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our success depends on our ability to develop brand images for our existing products and effectively build up brand images for new products and brand extensions. We cannot predict whether our advertising, marketing and promotional programs will have the desired impact on our products’ branding and on consumer preferences. In addition, negative public relations and product quality issues, whether real or imagined, could tarnish our reputation and images of the affected brands and could cause consumers to choose other products. Our brand images can also be adversely affected by unfavorable reports, studies and articles, litigation, or regulatory or other governmental action, whether involving our products or those of our competitors.

Competition from traditional and large, well-financed non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverage manufacturers may adversely affect our distribution relationships and may hinder development of our existing markets, as well as prevent us from expanding our markets.

The beverage industry is highly competitive. We compete with other beverage companies not only for consumer acceptance but also for shelf space in retail outlets and for marketing focus by distributors, all of whom also distribute other beverage brands. Our products will compete with a broad range non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages, many of which are marketed by companies with substantially greater financial and marketing resources than ours. Management believes that some of these competitors are placing severe pressure on independent distributors not to carry competitive brands offered by smaller enterprises such as ours. We will also compete with regional beverage producers and “private label” brands.

Increased competitor consolidations, market-place competition, particularly among branded beverage products, and competitive product and pricing pressures could impact our earnings, market share and volume growth. If, due to such pressure or other competitive threats, we are unable to sufficiently maintain or develop our distribution channels, we may be unable to achieve our current revenue and financial targets. Competition, particularly from companies with greater financial and marketing resources than ours, could have a material adverse effect on our existing markets, as well as on our ability to expand the market for our products.

Our reliance on distributors, retailers and brokers could affect our ability to efficiently and profitably distribute and market our products, maintain our existing markets and expand our business into other geographic markets.

Our ability to maintain and expand our existing markets for our products, and to establish markets in new geographic distribution areas, is dependent on our ability to establish and maintain successful relationships with reliable distributors, retailers and brokers strategically positioned to serve those areas. All of the distributors, retailers and brokers we have used in the past sell and distribute competing products, including non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages, and our products may represent a small portion of their businesses. The success of this network will depend on the performance of the distributors, retailers and brokers of this network. There is a risk that the mentioned entities may not adequately perform their functions within the network by, without limitation, failing to distribute to sufficient retailers or positioning our products in localities that may not be receptive to our product. Further, these third parties could reduce or terminate their relationship with us for any reason without liability to us. Our ability to incentivize and motivate distributors to manage and sell our products is affected by competition from other beverage companies, some of which may have greater resources than we do. To the extent that our distributors, retailers and brokers are distracted from selling our products or do not employ sufficient efforts in managing and selling our products, including re-stocking the retail shelves with our products, our results of operations could be adversely affected. Furthermore, such third-parties’ financial position or market share may deteriorate, which could adversely affect our distribution, marketing and sales activities.

Our ability to establish and expand our distribution network and attract additional distributors, retailers and brokers will depend on a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. Some of these factors include:

These third-party service providers and business partners are also subject to similar risks as we are relating to cybersecurity, privacy violations, business interruption, and systems and employee failures, and are subject to legal, regulatory and market risks of their own. Our third-party service providers and business partners may not fulfill their respective commitments and responsibilities in a timely manner and in accordance with the agreed-upon terms. In addition, while we have procedures in place for selecting and managing our relationships with third-party service providers and other business partners, we do not have control over their business operations or governance and compliance systems, practices and procedures, which increases our financial, legal, reputational and operational risk. If we are unable to effectively manage our third-party relationships, or for any reason our third-party service providers or business partners fail to satisfactorily fulfill their commitments and responsibilities, our financial results could suffer.

It is difficult to predict the timing and amount of our sales because our distributors are not required to place minimum orders with us.

Once we re-commence sales, we plan to use independent distributors who will not be required to place minimum monthly or annual orders for our products. In order to reduce their inventory costs, independent distributors typically order products from us on a “just in time” basis in quantities and at such times based on the demand for the products in a particular distribution area. Accordingly, we cannot predict the timing or quantity of purchases by any of our independent distributors or whether any of our distributors will purchase products from us in the same frequencies and volumes as they may have done in the past. Additionally, our larger distributors and national partners may make orders that are larger than we have historically been required to fill. Shortages in inventory levels, supply of raw materials or other key supplies could negatively affect us including by such distributors and national partners locating competitive brands to meet their demand.

Once we re-commence sales, we will need to maintain adequate inventory levels to be able to deliver products to distributors on a timely basis. Our inventory supply will depend available cash and on our ability to correctly estimate demand for our products. Our ability to estimate demand for our products is imprecise, particularly for new products, seasonal promotions and new markets. If we materially underestimate demand for our products or are unable to maintain sufficient inventory of raw materials, we might not be able to satisfy demand on a short-term basis. If we overestimate distributor or retailer demand for our products, we may end up with too much inventory, resulting in higher storage costs, increased trade spend and the risk of inventory spoilage. Additionally, our maintenance of inventory as needed to meet demand is contingent upon our access to sufficient capital, and due to our limited liquidity we have in the past and expect to continue in the future to be unable to obtain sufficient inventory unless and until we can gain access to the necessary capital. These challenges and the related risks will be heightened by recent developments such as the imposition of tariffs and any impacts thereof on us, the prices of supplies we utilize and the products we sell, delays and supply chain disruptions, similar factors relating to our vendors, and consumers and their demand for products at varying price points and quantities. If we fail to manage our inventory to meet demand, we could damage our relationships with our distributors and retailers and could delay or lose sales opportunities, which would unfavorably impact our future sales and adversely affect our operating results. In addition, if the inventory of our products held by our distributors and retailers is too high, they will not place orders for additional products, which would also unfavorably impact our sales and adversely affect our operating results.

If we fail to maintain relationships with our independent contract manufacturers, our business could be harmed.

We do not manufacture tequila but have instead outsourced the manufacturing process to third-party bottlers and independent contract manufacturers (co-packers). We do not own the plants or the majority of the equipment required to manufacture and package these brands. Our ability to maintain effective relationships with contract manufacturers and other third parties for the production and delivery of our beverage products in a particular geographic distribution area is important to the success of our operations within each distribution area. Our agreements with third parties enable such parties to terminate our relationship within a relatively short period of time. We may not be able to maintain our relationships with contract manufacturers or establish satisfactory relationships with new or replacement contract manufacturers, whether in existing or new geographic distribution areas. The failure to establish and maintain effective relationships with contract manufacturers for a distribution area could increase our manufacturing costs and thereby materially reduce gross profits from the sale of our products in that area. Poor relations with any of our contract manufacturers could adversely affect the amount and timing of product delivered to our distributors for resale, which would in turn adversely affect our revenues and financial condition. In addition, our agreements with our contract manufacturers are terminable at any time, and any such termination could disrupt our ability to deliver products to our customers.

Further, if third parties on which we depend to manufacture products increases their prices, we may not be able to secure alternative suppliers, and may not be able to raise the prices of our products to cover all or even a portion of the increased costs. Also, any failure by these third parties to perform satisfactorily or handle increased orders, or delays in shipping, could cause us to fail to meet orders for our products, lose sales, incur additional costs and/or expose us to product quality issues. We are also dependent upon such third parties continued liquidity and factors which affect such third parties ability to operate including:

In turn, this could cause us to lose credibility in the marketplace and damage our relationships with distributors, ultimately leading to a decline in our business and results of operations. If we are not able to renegotiate these contracts on acceptable terms or find suitable alternatives, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively impacted.

If we experience disruption within our supply chain, manufacturing or distribution channels, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Once we re-commence sales, our ability, through our suppliers, business partners, manufacturers, independent distributors and retailers, to make, move and sell products is critical to our success. Damage or disruption to our suppliers or to manufacturing or distribution capabilities due to weather, natural disaster, fire or explosion, terrorism, pandemics, labor strikes, geopolitical events or other reasons, could impair the manufacture, distribution and sale of our products. Many of these events are outside of our control. Failure to take adequate steps to protect against or mitigate the likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We expect to rely upon our ongoing relationships with our key flavor suppliers. If we are unable to source our flavors on acceptable terms from our key suppliers, we could suffer disruptions in our business.

In the past, we have purchased our flavor concentrate from various flavor concentrate suppliers, and seek to continually develop other sources of flavor concentrate for certain of our products. Generally, flavor suppliers hold the proprietary rights to their flavor-specific ingredients. Although we have the exclusive rights to flavor concentrates developed with our current flavor concentrate suppliers, and while we have the rights to the ingredients for our products, we do not have the list of ingredients for our flavor extracts and concentrates, and in the event of a termination or failure to perform by these suppliers, we may be unable to obtain these exact flavors or concentrates from alternative suppliers on short notice. If we have to replace a flavor supplier, we could experience disruptions in our ability to deliver products to our customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are dependent on a distiller in Mexico to provide us with our finished tequila product. Failure to obtain satisfactory performance from them or a loss of their services could cause us to lose future sales, incur additional costs, and lose credibility in the marketplace.

The Company estimates that it requires a minimum of approximately $500,000 of additional capital to begin pursuing its Chispo business strategy beyond the Senior Frog opportunity. If we can raise sufficient capital to pursue this business strategy, we will depend on a distiller in Jalisco, Mexico for the tequila certification, production, bottling, labeling, capping and packaging of our finished tequila product. We do not have a written agreement with our distiller in Mexico obligating it to produce our product. The termination of our relationship with our distiller in Mexico or an adverse change in the terms of its services could have a negative impact on our business. If our distiller in increases its prices, we may not have alternative sources of supply at comparable prices and may not be able to raise the prices of our products to cover all, or even a portion, of the increased costs. In addition, if our distiller in Mexico fails to perform satisfactorily, fails to handle increased orders, or we lose the services of our distiller in Mexico, along with delays in shipments of products, it could cause us to fail to meet orders, lose sales, incur additional costs, and/or expose us to product quality issues. In turn, this could cause us to lose credibility in the marketplace and damage our relationships with our customers and consumers, ultimately leading to a decline in our business and results of operations.

If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, our efficiency and operations would be adversely affected; in addition, management turnover causes uncertainties and could harm our business.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain highly qualified employees in such areas as finance, sales, marketing and product development. We compete to hire new employees, and, in some cases, must train them and develop their skills and competencies. We may not be able to provide our employees with competitive salaries, and our operating results could be adversely affected by increased costs due to increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover or increased employee benefit costs. We are dependent on our core management team whose knowledge, experience and connections in the industry are critical to our operations and business plan. The loss of these individuals or any other key personnel would therefore have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to operate and compete effectively.

Further, Robert Nistico, our former Chief Executive Officer, resigned as Chief Executive Officer (but not as a director) effective November 14, 2025 and William Devereux, our former Chief Financial Officer, resigned as Chief Financial Officer effective November 30, 2025. Following these resignations, William Meissner, our President, became our principal executive officer, and we hired Marty Scott as our Interim Chief Financial Officer. We may be unable to attract, hire our maintain sufficient management-level employees and key personnel within a reasonable timeframe or under favorable terms, including due to the uncertainties relating to our lack of capital as well as the fierce competition for qualified candidates for such positions both within our industry and for public companies generally.

Changes to operations, policies and procedures, which can often occur with the appointment of new personnel, can create uncertainty, may negatively impact our ability to execute quickly and effectively, and may ultimately be unsuccessful. In addition, management transition periods are often difficult as the new employees gain detailed knowledge of our operations, and friction can result from changes in strategy and management style. Management turnover inherently causes some loss of institutional knowledge, which can negatively affect strategy and execution.

Further, to the extent we experience additional management turnover, our operations, financial condition and employee morale could be negatively impacted. In addition, competition for top management is high and it may take months to find a candidate that meets our requirements. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified management personnel, our business could suffer.

If we fail to protect our trademarks and trade secrets, we may be unable to successfully market our products and compete effectively.

We rely on a combination of trademark and trade secrets, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property rights and interests in our operations, products and processes. Failure to protect or maintain our intellectual property could harm our brand and our reputation, and adversely affect our ability to compete effectively. Further, enforcing or defending our intellectual property and related rights and interests could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We regard our intellectual property, particularly our trademarks and trade secrets to be of considerable value and importance to our business and our success, and we actively pursue the registration of our trademarks in the United States and internationally. However, the steps taken by us to protect these proprietary rights may not be adequate and may not prevent third parties from infringing or misappropriating our trademarks, trade secrets or similar proprietary rights, particularly outside of the United States where intellectual property rights may not be fully enforceable. In addition, other parties may seek to assert infringement claims against us, and we may have to pursue litigation against other parties to assert our rights. Any such claim or litigation could be costly. In addition, any event that would jeopardize our proprietary rights or any claims of infringement by third parties could have a material adverse effect on our ability to market or sell our brands, profitably exploit our products or recoup our associated costs.

As part of the licensing strategy of our brands, we enter into licensing agreements under which we grant our licensing partners certain rights to use our trademarks and other designs. Although our agreements require that the use of our trademarks and designs is subject to our control and approval, any breach of these provisions, or any other action by any of our licensing partners that is harmful to our brands, goodwill and overall image, could have a material adverse impact on our business.

If we encounter product recalls or other product quality issues, our business may suffer.

Product quality issues, real or imagined, or allegations of product contamination, even when false or unfounded, could tarnish our image and could cause consumers to choose other products. In addition, because of changing government regulations or implementation thereof, or allegations of product contamination, we may be required from time to time to recall products entirely or from specific markets. Product recalls could affect our profitability and could negatively affect brand image.

Because our business is subject to many regulations, noncompliance is costly.

The production, marketing and sale of our beverages, including contents, labels, caps and containers, are subject to the rules and regulations of various federal, foreign, state and local health and other agencies. The regulations to which we are subject impose requirements on production, distribution, marketing, advertising and labelling of products. We are required to comply with these regulations and to maintain various permits and licenses. We will be required to conduct business only with holders of licenses to import, warehouse, transport, distribute and sell our products. We cannot assure you that these and other governmental regulations applicable to our industry will not change or become more stringent. Moreover, because these laws and regulations are subject to interpretation, we may not be able to predict when and to what extent liability may arise. Additionally, due to increasing public concern over alcohol-related societal problems, including driving while intoxicated, underage drinking, alcoholism and health consequences from the abuse of alcohol, various levels of government may seek to impose additional restrictions or limits on advertising or other marketing activities promoting beverage alcohol products. Failure to comply with any of the current or future regulations and requirements relating to our industry and products could result in monetary penalties, suspension or even revocation of our licenses and permits. Costs of compliance with changes in regulations could be significant and could harm our business, as we could find it necessary to raise our prices in order to maintain profit margins, which could lower the demand for our products and reduce our sales and increase our losses.

Also, the distribution of beverage alcohol products is subject to extensive taxation (at both the federal and state government levels), and beverage alcohol products themselves are the subject of national import and excise duties in most countries around the world. An increase in taxation or in import or excise duties could also significantly harm our revenues and margins, both through the reduction of overall consumption and by encouraging consumers to switch to lower-taxed categories of beverage alcohol.

If a regulatory authority finds that a current or future product or production batch or “run” is not in compliance with any of these regulations, we may be fined, forced to recall products, or production may be stopped, which would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Similarly, any adverse publicity associated with any noncompliance may damage our reputation and our ability to successfully market our products. Furthermore, the rules and regulations are subject to change from time-to-time, we cannot anticipate whether changes in these rules and regulations will impact our business adversely. Additional or revised regulatory requirements, whether labeling, environmental, tax or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

If we complete the acquisition of Medterra, its CBD business will face substantial and challenging regulations. Government regulation of cannabinoids remains dynamic, multi-layered, and complex. The sale of CBD products are influenced by federal law, state legislation, and international regulatory frameworks, each of which shapes the permissible scope of manufacturing, marketing, labeling, distribution, and sale of such products. If we acquire Medterra, we will therefore be required to devote significant resources to monitoring regulatory developments and adjusting operations accordingly and may not be able to achieve the benefits anticipated or sought from such acquisition due to any adjustments to Medterra’s operations or other adverse developments which may arise from the foregoing.

Government regulations, any changes thereto and/or any failure by us to comply with these regulations, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business and properties are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations, including those governing the production, packaging, quality, labeling and distribution of beverage products. In addition, various governmental agencies have enacted or are considering additional taxes on certain non-alcoholic beverages as well as alcoholic beverages. Further, we are subject to licensing and permitting requirements in the various jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Changes in existing laws or regulations or any failure by us to fully comply with these varying and evolving requirements could require us to incur material expenses and negatively affect our financial results, including through lower sales, higher costs negative publicity and other adverse consequences.

Moreover, because these laws and regulations are subject to interpretation, we may not be able to predict when, and to what extent, liability may arise. Additionally, due to increasing public concern over alcohol-related societal problems, including driving while intoxicated, underage drinking, alcoholism and health consequences from the abuse of alcohol, various levels of government may seek to impose additional restrictions or limits on advertising or other marketing activities promoting beverage alcohol products. Failure to comply with any of the current or future regulations and requirements relating to our industry and products, could result in monetary penalties, suspension or even revocation of our licenses and permits. Costs of compliance with changes in regulations could be significant and could harm our business, as we may find it necessary to raise our prices in order to maintain profit margins, which could lower the demand for our products and reduce our sales and profit potential.

In addition, the distribution of beverage alcohol products is subject to extensive taxation both in the United States and internationally (and, in the United States, at both the federal and state government levels), and beverage alcohol products themselves are the subject of national import and excise duties in most countries around the world. An increase in taxation or in import or excise duties could also significantly harm our revenue and margins, both through the reduction of overall consumption and by encouraging consumers to switch to lower-taxed categories of beverage alcohol.

We will be exposed to product liability or other related liabilities which could have significant negative financial repercussions on our solvency.

Although we maintain general liability insurance and take certain other measures in an effort to reduce the risk of liabilities, these measures may not be sufficient for us to successfully avoid or limit product liability or other related liabilities. The Company has not generated any revenue since March 2025, and it does not currently carry product liability insurance. The Company intends to acquire product liability insurance prior to shipping any products, but may not have the capital to do so. Further, any contractual indemnification and insurance coverage we have in the future from parties supplying our products is limited, as a practical matter, to the creditworthiness of the indemnifying party and the insured limits of any insurance provided by these suppliers. Extensive product liability claims could be costly to defend and/or costly to resolve and could harm our reputation or business, and we may face uninsured or underinsured claims and liabilities due to the factors described above.

We could face issues including the risk of contamination of our products and/or counterfeit or confusingly similar products.

The success of our brands depends upon the positive image that consumers have of them. Contamination, whether arising accidentally or through deliberate third-party action, or other events that harm the integrity or consumer support for our brands, could affect the demand for our products. Contaminants in raw materials purchased from third parties and used in the production of our products or defects in the production processes, including third party manufacturers on which we rely and over which we lack control, could lead to low beverage quality, as well as illness among, or injury to, consumers of our products and could result in reduced sales of the affected brand or all of our brands and potentially serious damage to our reputation for product quality, as well as product liability claims. Also, to the extent that third parties sell products that are either counterfeit versions of our brands or brands that look like our brands, consumers of our brands could confuse our products with products that they consider inferior. This could cause them to refrain from purchasing our brands in the future and in turn could impair our brand equity and adversely affect our sales and operations.

Contamination of any of our products could force us to destroy inventory we hold and could cause the need for a product recall, which could significantly damage our reputation for product quality.

Significant additional labeling or warning requirements may inhibit sales of affected products.

Various jurisdictions may seek to adopt significant additional product labeling or warning requirements relating to the chemical content or perceived adverse health consequences of certain products. These types of requirements, if they become applicable to one or more of our products under current or future environmental or health laws or regulations, may inhibit sales of such products. For example, in California, a law requires that a specific warning appear on any product that contains a component listed by the state as having been found to cause cancer or birth defects. This law recognizes no generally applicable quantitative thresholds below which a warning is not required. If a component found in one of our products is added to the list, or if the increasing sensitivity of detection methodology that may become available under this law and related regulations as they currently exist, or as they may be amended, results in the detection of an infinitesimal quantity of a listed substance in one of our beverages produced for sale in California, the resulting warning requirements or adverse publicity could affect our sales.

If we are subject to litigation, we may incur significant liabilities and litigation expenses.

We have been subject to and may in the future become party to litigation. Litigation involves significant risks, uncertainties and costs, including distraction of management attention away from our business operations. We evaluate litigation claims and legal proceedings to assess the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and to estimate, if possible, the amount of potential losses. Based on these assessments and estimates, we establish reserves and disclose the relevant litigation claims or legal proceedings, as appropriate. These assessments and estimates are based on the information available to management at the time and involve a significant amount of management judgment. Actual outcomes or losses may differ materially from those envisioned by our current assessments and estimates. Our policies and procedures require strict compliance by our employees and agents with all U.S. and local laws and regulations applicable to our business operations, including those prohibiting improper payments to government officials. Nonetheless, our policies and procedures may not ensure full compliance by our employees and agents with all applicable legal requirements. Improper conduct by our employees or agents could damage our reputation or lead to litigation that could result in civil, administrative or criminal penalties, including substantial monetary fines, as well as disgorgement of profits.

Additionally, there has been public attention directed at the alcoholic beverage industry, which we believe is due to concern over problems related to harmful use of alcohol, including drinking and driving, underage drinking and health consequences from the misuse of alcohol. We could be exposed to lawsuits relating to product liability or marketing or sales practices with respect to our alcoholic products. Adverse developments in lawsuits concerning these types of matters or a significant decline in the social acceptability of beverage alcohol products that may result from lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our industry faces the possibility of litigation including class actions alleging that the continued excessive use or abuse of beverage alcohol has caused death or serious health problems or that we failed to adequately warn consumers of the risks of alcohol consumption. It is also possible that governments could assert that the use of alcohol has significantly increased government-funded healthcare costs. Litigation or assertions of this type have adversely affected companies in the tobacco industry, and it is possible that we, as well as our suppliers, could be named in litigation of this type.

For example, lawsuits have been brought in a number of states alleging that alcoholic beverage manufacturers and marketers have improperly targeted underage consumers in their advertising. Plaintiffs in these cases allege that the defendants’ advertisements, marketing and promotions violate the consumer protection or deceptive trade practices statutes in each of these states and seek repayment of the family funds expended by the underage consumers. While we have not been named in these lawsuits, we could be named in similar lawsuits in the future. Any class action or other litigation asserted against us could be expensive and time-consuming to defend against, depleting our cash and diverting our personnel resources and, if the plaintiffs in such actions were to prevail, our business could be harmed significantly.

We are subject to risks inherent in sales of products in international markets.

Certain of our contemplated operations are outside of the United States, and there can be no assurance that these products that we sell will be accepted or be successful in any particular foreign market, due to local or global competition, product price, cultural differences, and consumer preferences or otherwise. There are many factors that could adversely affect demand for our products in foreign markets, including our inability to attract and maintain key distributors in these markets; volatility in the economic growth of certain of these markets; changes in economic, political or social conditions, tariffs including retaliatory tariffs, the status and renegotiations of the North American Free Trade Agreement, imposition of new or increased labeling, product or production requirements, or other legal restrictions; restrictions on the import or export of our products or ingredients or substances used in our products; currency fluctuations, and increased costs of doing business due to compliance with complex foreign laws and regulations. If we are unable to effectively operate or manage the risks associated with operating in international markets, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected.

The proper functioning of our own information technology (“IT”) infrastructure is critical to the efficient operation and management of our business. We may not have the necessary financial resources to update and maintain our IT infrastructure, and any failure or interruption of our IT system could adversely impact our operations. In addition, our IT is vulnerable to cyberattacks, computer viruses, worms and other malicious software programs, physical and electronic break-ins, sabotage and similar disruptions from unauthorized tampering with our computer systems.

For example, in early 2026 we experienced a hacking incident wherein a malicious third party attempted to impersonate our President to divert funds. While the Company ultimately avoided losses from this incident, this event or similar events in the future could cause substantial financial, reputational and/or operational harm on us or third parties with whom we conduct business. It also delayed us several days from receiving funds we were owed under ELOC Agreement at a time when we had a need for the funds.

This incident reminded us of the need to adopt and maintain appropriate measures to mitigate potential risks to our technology infrastructure and our operations from these IT-related and other potential disruptions. However, given the unpredictability of the timing, nature and scope of any such IT failures or disruptions, as well as our limited resources and personnel, we could potentially be subject to downtimes, transactional errors, processing inefficiencies, operational delays, other detrimental impacts on our operations or ability to provide products to our customers, the compromising of confidential or personal information, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches, other manipulation or improper use of our systems and networks, financial losses from remedial actions, loss of business or potential liability, and/or damage to our reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, competitive position, financial condition or results of operations.

If we fail to comply with personal data protection and privacy laws, we could be subject to adverse publicity, government enforcement actions and/or private litigation, which could negatively affect our business and operating results.

In the ordinary course of our business when we generate sales, we receive, process, transmit and store information relating to identifiable individuals (“personal data”), primarily employees, former employees and consumers with whom we interact. For example, when we operated Qplash we collected and processed personal data concerning consumers who access and purchase products on the platform. As a result, we are subject to various U.S. federal and state and foreign laws and regulations relating to personal data. These laws have been subject to frequent changes, and new legislation in this area may be enacted in other jurisdictions at any time. These laws impose operational requirements for companies receiving or processing personal data, and many provide for significant penalties and fines for noncompliance. These requirements with respect to personal data have subjected and may continue in the future to subject the Company to, among other things, additional costs and expenses and have required and may in the future require costly changes to our business practices and information security systems, policies, procedures and practices. Our security controls over personal data, the training of employees and vendors on data privacy and data security,

and the policies, procedures and practices we implemented or may implement in the future may not prevent the improper disclosure of personal data by us or the third-party service providers and vendors whose technology, systems and services we use in connection with the receipt, storage and transmission of personal data. Unauthorized access or improper disclosure of personal data in violation of personal data protection or privacy laws could harm our reputation, cause loss of consumer confidence, subject us to regulatory enforcement actions (including fines), and result in private litigation against us, which could result in loss of revenue, increased costs, liability for monetary damages, fines and/or criminal prosecution, all of which could negatively affect our business and operating results.

Our results of operations may fluctuate from quarter to quarter for many reasons, including seasonality.

In the past, our sales were seasonal, and we may experience seasonality if we resume generating revenue. Companies similar to ours have historically generated a greater percentage of their revenues during the warm weather months of April through September. The timing of customer purchases will vary each year and sales can be expected to shift from one quarter to another. As a result, management believes that period-to-period comparisons of results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as any indication of future performance or results expected for the fiscal year.

Material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting may cause us to fail to timely and accurately report our financial results or result in a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements.

A material weakness exists over our financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As disclosed in this Report under “Item 9A-Controls and Procedures”, we have identified material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls related to a limited segregation of duties due to our limited resources and insufficient accounting employees, resulting in a lack of controls to ensure maintenance of documentation supporting transactions recorded in the Company’s accounting records. Management has determined that these material weaknesses which result in material misstatements of significant accounts and disclosures that could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. In addition, due to limited staffing, we are not always able to detect minor errors or omissions in reporting. Once we obtain sufficient working capital, we intend to remediate the material weaknesses. It is possible that the material weaknesses over our financial reporting or the discovery of additional material weaknesses and their possible effect on our financial and operating results, could have material and adverse effect on our stock price and investor confidence.

Future sales of Common Stock, or the perception of such future sales, by some of our existing stockholders could cause our stock price to decline.

The market price of our Common Stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our Common Stock in the market or the perception that these sales may occur. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell shares in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.

On September 19, 2025 the Company entered into the (“ELOC Agreement”) with C/M Capital Master Fund, LP (“C/M”) pursuant to which, subject to certain terms and conditions set forth therein, the Company may sell and issue to C/M shares of Common Stock for total gross proceeds of up to $35 million. The Company recently registered up to 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the ELOC Agreement. Since then, the Company has sold a total of 4,840,254 shares under the ELOC Agreement for total gross proceeds of $1,917,709 as of April 14, 2026. In addition, pursuant to Registration Rights Agreements entered into in connection with our sale of Series A-1 and accompanying Warrants, Series B, as well as subsequent convertible promissory notes, we recently registered the resale of an additional up to 7,765,238 shares of Common Stock issuable to holders of those securities. See also the Risk Factor titled “We have issued multiple classes of preferred stock and other securities of the Company that will result in dilution to existing stockholders upon their conversion and exercise.”

Due to the passage of time many shares of our Common Stock outstanding or issuable upon conversion or exercise of derivative securities, including securities that were issued in 2025, are or may become sellable under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). In general, from time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their common shares by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement. Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), and current public information and notice requirements.

Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. We cannot predict if and when selling stockholders may sell such shares in the public market.

We have issued multiple classes of preferred stock and other securities of the Company that will result in dilution to existing stockholders upon their conversion and exercise.

The issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of our outstanding convertible preferred stock will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders. These series of preferred stock are convertible into a total of up to 7,635,998 shares of Common Stock, subject to beneficial ownership limitations and certain adjustments. Further, the Series A-1 and Series B each allow the holders to convert at a reduced conversion price equal to 80% of the average of the five trading day volume weighted average price calculated as of the date an applicable conversion notice, subject to a floor price of $1.25. The Series A-1 and Series B each entitle the holders thereof to quarterly dividends which may be paid in Common Stock in lieu of cash. Although conversions are subject to stockholder approval and thereafter holders may not receive shares of Common Stock exceeding 4.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after affecting such conversion, this restriction does not prevent holders from receiving shares up to the 4.99% limit, selling those shares, and then receiving the rest of the shares it is due, in one or more tranches, while still staying below the 4.99% limit. In addition, outstanding Warrants issued in connection with the sales of Series A-1 since June 2025 entitle the holders thereof to receive additional shares of Common Stock upon exercises thereof. If holders choose to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our Common Stock. Additionally, the continued sale of shares issuable upon successive conversions will likely create significant downward pressure on the price of our Common Stock as holders sell material amounts of our Common Stock over time and/or in a short period of time. This could place further downward pressure on the price of our Common Stock and in turn result in holders receiving an ever-increasing number of additional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of its securities, and adjustments thereof, which in turn will likely lead to further dilution, reductions in the exercise/conversion price of holders securities and even more downward pressure on our Common Stock, which could lead to our Common Stock becoming devalued or worthless.

Further, these series of preferred stock contain dividend rights and liquidation preferences in favor of the holders thereof that may operate to limit or reduce the rights of holders of our Common Stock, including with respect to dividends or liquidation events that may occur in the future. For example, the dividend rights of the preferred stock would reduce the Company’s ability to declare dividends while the preferred stock is outstanding. Further, the senior ranking in liquidation preference for the preferred stockholders would operate to reduce or eliminate any amounts which may otherwise have been available to Common Stockholders upon a dissolution or winding up of the Company. These terms could have a material adverse effect on the holders of our Common Stock.

The market price of our Common Stock has been volatile and may continue to be volatile.

The market price and trading volume of our Common Stock has been volatile in recent periods, and it may continue to be volatile. For example, thus far in 2026 through April 10, 2026, our Common Stock has traded as low as $0.34 and as high as $0.98 per share. We cannot predict the price at which our Common Stock will trade in the future, and the price of our Common Stock may decline. The price at which our Common Stock trades may fluctuate significantly and may be influenced by many factors, including our financial results, developments generally affecting the beverage industry, general economic, industry and market conditions, the depth and liquidity of the market for our Common Stock, fluctuations in prices and costs, investor perceptions of our business, reports by industry analysts, negative announcements by our customers, competitors or suppliers regarding their own performances, and the impact of other Risk Factors discussed herein.

Our Common Stock could be further diluted as the result of the issuance of additional Common Stock, convertible securities, warrants or options.

We expect to need to issue additional shares of Common Stock and/or Common Stock equivalents in the near term in order to meet our capital requirements and to close the Medterra acquisition or strategic transaction. Our issuance of additional Common Stock, convertible securities, options and warrants could affect the rights of our stockholders, result in a reduction in the overall percentage holdings of our stockholders, could put downward pressure on the market price of our Common Stock, could result in adjustments to conversion and exercise prices of outstanding notes and warrants, and could obligate us to issue additional Common Stock to certain of our stockholders.

We incur increased costs associated with corporate governance requirements that are become applicable to us as a public company, including rules and regulations of the SEC, under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Customer Protection Act of 2010, and the Exchange Act, as well as the rules of the NYSE American. These rules and regulations significantly increase our accounting, legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time consuming, including due to increased training of our current employees, additional hiring of new employees, and increased assistance from consultants. These rules and regulations also make it more expensive for us to maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board or as executive officers. Furthermore, these rules and regulations increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, our management team must devote substantial attention to interacting with the investment community and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies, which may divert attention away from the day-to-day management of our business, including operational, research and development and sales and marketing activities. Increases in costs incurred or diversion of management’s attention as a result of becoming a publicly traded company may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Our Board of Directors may issue and fix the terms of shares of our preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our Common Stock or any change in control of our Company.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, with par value $0.001 per share, with such designation rights and preferences as may be determined from time-to-time by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). Our Board is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our Common Stock. In the event of such issuances, the preferred stock could be used, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company. Any such issuance would be subject to terms and conditions of any current offering that may disallow any such issuance.
