Added paragraphs (6)
Current report
The Company’s financial condition is further impacted by a non-renewal notice received on April 29, 2025 and effective September 26, 2025 from a significant customer, expected to result in an annual revenue loss of approximately $4.0 million. While the customer’s non-renewal requires a one-time buyout payment to the Company of approximately $1.6 million, this amount alone may not fully offset the anticipated revenue impact.
Current report
The remaining FPA holders holding shares as on September 30, 2025 have requested cash for their shares. Some FPA holders have sold some of their shares in the open market, reducing the amount they are owed.
Current report
There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq, and if we fail to maintain compliance with the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, our Class A ordinary shares could be delisted, negatively impacting their price, liquidity, and our ability to access the capital markets.
Current report
Our Class A ordinary shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “AERT.” On September 30, 2025, the Company received a notification letter from the Nasdaq notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s Class A ordinary shares listed on Nasdaq was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, the Company no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2), requiring a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares. In accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days from September 30, 2025, or until March 30, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time before March 30, 2026, the bid price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
Current report
The notification letter also disclosed that in the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by March 30, 2026, the Company may be eligible for additional time. To qualify for additional time, the Company would be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and would need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, Nasdaq will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days to regain compliance. However, if it appears to the staff of Nasdaq (the “Staff”) that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, the Staff would notify the Company that its securities will be subject to delisting. In the event of such notification, the Company may appeal the Staff’s determination to delist its securities, but there can be no assurance the Staff would grant the Company’s request for continued listing.
Current report
If we do not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule and maintain compliance with other rules for continued listing on the Nasdaq, our securities may be delisted. If our securities were delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market, it could, among other things, lead to a number of negative implications, including reduced liquidity in our common stock, the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws and greater difficulty in obtaining financing.

Previous wording
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations, management has identified conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company reported a net profit of $1.68 million for this period.
Current wording
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations, management has identified conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had a cash balance of $1.87 million with a net operating cash inflow of $2.39 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025. The Company reported a net profit of $2.32 million for this period.
Previous wording
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $10.62 million, primarily due to current liabilities related to the FPAs of $3.78 million (as defined below), short term borrowings of $5.40 million and remaining due to other current liabilities such as accrued compensation benefits and other accruals.
Current wording
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $8.45 million primarily due to current liabilities related to the FPAs of $4.14 million (as defined below), short term borrowings of $4.37 million, and certain business combination related payable balances.
Previous wording
These FPAs were liquidity arrangements entered into as part of the Business Combination consummated as of November 6, 2023. Under these liquidity arrangements, certain investors agreed not to redeem their holdings in WWAC in exchange for the Company entering into the FPAs. As of the date of this Form 10-Q report, the remaining balance owed to the FPA holders is approximately $3.78 million. The maturity consideration may be settled either in cash or equity at the option of the FPA holders. We do not have sufficient cash from operations or cash reserves to pay the maturity consideration in cash. Paying the maturity consideration in cash would reduce the amount of cash on hand or available debt capacity to fund our operations, which could adversely affect our ability to make necessary investments, and, therefore, could affect our results of operations.

Previous wording
We may be required to make a cash payment of approximately $3.78 million or issue certain additional Class A ordinary shares to the investors with whom we entered into Forward Purchase Agreements in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, which would reduce the amount of cash available to us to fund our operations or dilute the percentage ownership held by the investors

Previous wording
We are required to make a cash payment of $2.00 per FPA Share, or issue additional Class A ordinary shares to such FPA holders at a price of $2.50 per share, for each FPA share held by the FPA holders who continued to hold their FPA Shares at the Maturity Date. If we are required to satisfy our obligations under the FPA with cash payments to the FPA holders, the amount of cash on hand to fund our operations would be reduced accordingly, which could adversely affect our ability to make necessary investments, and, therefore, could affect our results of operations. If we are required to issue additional Class A ordinary shares in respect of the FPA Shares, the ownership percentage held by our current shareholders will be diluted.
