Current report

The challenge facing the Company is to acquire a new business line, or to establish a new profitable product line, whether the licensing of the Connected Chef or another product line, before the cost of marketing and penetrating a new product marketing company impose unsustainable financial burdens and losses on the Company. The License Agreement for the Connected Chef was terminated by mutual agreement of the Company and Licensee during the first week of November 2025, as a result of the prospective Chinese OEM refusing to produce a product developed by an American company. Consequently, the Company and Licensee ended the License Agreement during the first week of November 2025. The Company is not considering further efforts to license the Connected Chef as of the date of the fling of this Form 10-Q, but the Company may reconsider efforts to license the Connected Chef if trade relations between the U.S. and China improve, or an OEM who does not require upfront money and located outside of China can be located by the Company.

Current report

The lack of adequate working capital significantly hinders and may undermine ongoing or future business development efforts. There is also substantial uncertainty about the Company as a going concern and its ability to operate beyond early 2026.

Current report

The Company did not experience any cybersecurity incidents for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Current report

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, other general and administrative expenses were approximately $34,000 as compared to $27,000 in 2024 for an increase of $7,000 or 26%, related to bank fees.

Previous report

The challenge facing the Company is to acquire a new business line, or to establish a new profitable product line, whether the licensing of the Connected Chef or another product line, before the cost of marketing and penetrating a new product market company impose unsustainable financial burdens and losses on the Company. There are no assurances that the new management members will result in the development of a new business line for the Company or will enhance the ability or capabilities of the Company’s management to develop or acquire a new business line for the Company. The funding under the New Note and the financial support of essential corporate overhead expenses of the Company under the MTA, if provided in accordance with the MTA, will allow the Company to continue efforts to develop a new business line in 2025. Funding from Coppermine under the New Note and MTA is the sole source of working capital funding for the Company as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q. Additional funding from Coppermine is uncertain and there is no assurances of any additional funding from Coppermine or any other funding sources.

Previous report

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, other general and administrative expenses were approximately $56,200 as compared to $64,400 in 2024 for a reduction of $8,000 of 15%. The Company was cognizant to reduce expenses as a result of not having a revenue generating product line as of the period ended June 30, 2025.

As an ongoing strategic plan, the Company intends to develop or acquire a new business line that is not involved in the production of consumer products that are discretionary purchases for consumers, which was the Company’s prior business line.

LED Lighting Product Line. Historically, LED lighting products were the Company’s core consumer product business. The Capstone Lighting andHoover Home LED brands, combined, sold millions of LED lighting products, but by 2023 the LED lighting products had matured and ceased to garner sufficient orders to maintain production.

As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Connected Chef licensing arrangement described in the following paragraph has been the only commercialization of the Connected Chef.

Health, Fitness and Social Activities Business. During 2024, the Company commenced its business development of a business line or software development project focused on year-round health, fitness and social activities (this business line being referred to as “HFS” or “HFS business”). Due to the popularity of sports like pickle ball and flag football, health, fitness and social activities at dedicated facilities are being developed nationwide. Pickle ball has been the fastest growing sport in America since 2021 and its popularity is based in large part in that it can be played by all fitness active demographics groups (e.g. children, adults and elders (since it does not require the skills and athleticism of tennis or other physically demanding sports)) and can be played as a recreational or competitive amateur/collegiate and professional sport. Professional pickle ball is increasingly popular sports entertainment. A typical HFS facility offers sports like indoor and outdoor pickle ball, padel and often another recreational sport or sports (e.g. martial arts, swimming, basketball, racquetball, tennis) with a food-drink-entertainment area. Some HFS facilities add field sports like soccer, lacrosse, and football (traditional and flag) in order to host tournaments, local school competitions, or recreational league play. The HFS facilities typically seek individual, family and group memberships charging periodic fees as well as additional fees for special offerings or events. Special events consist of children summer camps, birthday parties, corporate employee outings, or corporate sponsor events promoting their specific products (e.g. drinks, cooler products, drink ware, sporting equipment, apparel) through branding which may be performed in house by the HFS facility.

Besides the license of the Connected Chef kitchen appliance product, the Company is seeking to establish revenue generating operations in the HFS business by internal development of HFS operations or acquiring or being acquired by an existing, operating HFS company. Management is closely monitoring its operations, liquidity, and capital resources and is actively working to minimize the current and future impact of this unprecedented situation.

Current wording

Besides the efforts to license the Connected Chef kitchen appliance product, which effort has not successfully commercialized the Connected Chef product or resulted in any production of that product as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company is seeking to establish revenue generating operations in the HFS business by internal development of HFS operations or acquiring or being acquired by an existing, operating HFS company. Management is closely monitoring its operations, liquidity, and capital resources and is actively working to minimize the current and future impact of this unprecedented situation.

Previous wording

The strategic focus of the Company’s business operations in 2025 are the pursuit of the HFS Business and related apparel and logo branding business of the HFS industry, development of a customer registration and management application (“CRM Application”) for the HFS industry, and the third-party licensing of the Connected Chef. The long-term business strategy of the Company is focused on the HFS Business (including the apparel and logo branding business) and development of the CRM application and potential licensing to other HFS businesses, with the third-party licensing of the Connected Chef as a secondary business. The Company has expanded the scope of its HFS business strategy in the first half of 2025 due to perceived opportunities in that segment of the HFS industry. The implementation of the long-term business strategy will depend on having adequate working capital until revenue flow from operations replaces third party funding as the principal means of funding overhead. We have third party funding for basic operational overhead through the third fiscal quarter of 2025. We may be unable to achieve sufficient working capital when and, in the amounts, required to meet operational overhead beyond three fiscal quarters of 2025.

Previous wording

In terms of any pursuit of the apparel and logo branding business of the HFS industry, the Company is seeking to penetrate an industry that is perceived by the Company as rapidly expanding nationwide with many existing and new companies that have established operations and brand recognition. The HFS industry also has emerging regional or potentially national HFS chains and franchises. The Company may be unable to establish a competitive, sustainable apparel and logo branding business in the face of a rapidly growing industry with competitors who have established operations, greater funding than the Company and established brand recognition. The Company needs to raise sufficient working capital to acquire an existing HFS operation or establish an HFS operation that has offerings that appeal to a broad demographic range of customers. The Company believes that a competitive edge in HFS industry is offerings that appeal to a broad demographic group (children, families and adults) as opposed to offerings that are primarily aimed at appealing to adults seeking pickle ball courts with a sport bar or social activities environment.

With a third-party licensing consumer product, the Connected Chef, the Company competes in competitive consumer market channels that can be affected by volatility from a number of general business and economic factors such as, consumer confidence and preferences, employment levels, new technologies, credit availability, costs and barriers of producing products from foreign original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and commodity costs. Demand for the consumer products like the Connected Chef is highly dependent on economic drivers such as consumer spending and discretionary income. Technological changes can also undermine the appeal of devices like the Connected Chef. Consumers can opt to use a smart cell phone, tablet or laptop for Internet access for recipes and kitchen arts instead of using a dedicated device like the Connected Chef. Further, Amazon.com offers the Echo Show 21-inch kitchen hub with built-in Fire TV and Alexa functions. While the Echo Show is not focused on recipes and kitchen arts like the Connected Chef, being more a general smart TV with Internet connection for the kitchen, it is still potentially competitive to the Connected Chef. The purported market appeal of the Connected Chef is that it’s tailored to kitchen use for recipes and kitchen arts and designed to withstand the conditions of a kitchen, which is not the case for smart cell phones, tablets and laptops. The Connected Chef is counting on consumers preferring a dedicated kitchen device rather than using and risking damage to devices primarily designed and used for other functions and uses.

As is true for any consumer product company, the Company faces competition from numerous competitors in the consumer product industry, foreign and domestic, and some of those competitors have substantially greater market share, brand recognition, distribution and financial and technical resources than the Company. The Company’s strategy has been to develop well designed and well-made products that appeal to a niche market. The Company also relies on the production and engineering resources and technical expertise of its contract manufacturers to compensate for a lack of those resources internally. The lack of working capital hinders the ability of the Company to leverage the development, design and production capabilities of OEMs.

Current wording

As is true for any consumer product and with respect to the Connected Chef, the Connected Chef, if produced and marketed, would face competition from numerous competitors in the consumer product industry, foreign and domestic, and some of those competitors and their products have substantially greater market share, brand recognition, distribution and financial and technical resources than any prospective licensee or the Connected Chef. The Connected Chef has not been produced or sold to consumers. The Company’s strategy in the past has been to develop well designed and well-made products that appeal to a niche market. The Company also relies on the production and engineering resources and technical expertise of its OEMs to compensate for a lack of those resources internally. The lack of adequate working capital hinders the ability of the Company to leverage the development, design and production capabilities of OEMs. With the termination of the License Agreement during the first week of November 2025, the Company is uncertain if it will seek further licensing efforts for the Connected Chef in the foreseeable future, especially while trade relations between U.S. and China remain in flux and tense. With limited working capital, the Company may decide or be forced to dedicate its limited and dwindling working capital to business development efforts outside of consumer product licensing.

Previous wording

Due to working capital constraints, the Company’s focus for the Connected Chef is licensing of the promotion, marketing, production and sales/distribution to third parties. A typical arrangement would be a distributor or product company licensing the right to promote, market, distribute and sell the Connected Chef, which would be ordered from a Company’s authorized contract manufacturer. The Company would be merely the licensor and would not be required to fund or handle the promotion, marketing, production, distribution and sale of the product. The Company is exploring such an arrangement with a limited number of prospective distributors.

The strategic focus of the Company’s business operations in 2025 has been the pursuit of the HFS Business and related apparel and logo branding business of the HFS industry, development of a customer registration and management application (“CRM Application”) for the HFS industry, and the third-party licensing of the Connected Chef. The long-term business strategy of the Company is focused on the HFS Business (including the apparel and logo branding business) and development of the CRM application and potential licensing to other HFS businesses, with the third-party licensing of the Connected Chef as a secondary business. The License Agreement for the Connected Chef was terminated during the first week of November 2025, by the Company and Licensee due to the refusal of the prospective Chinese OEM to produce a product developed by an American company. As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company is also not certain of whether the CRM application for Coppermine will proceed to making an actual proposal, which proposal work is required to proceed with a proposal to develop the CRM application, due to Coppermine’s re-evaluation of its operational needs. As such, the Company does currently anticipate any revenue from the licensing of the Connected Chef or CRM proposal work or the CRM proposal project in the foreseeable future, if at all.
