Business** **Background** Nocopi Technologies, Inc. develops and markets specialty reactive inks for multiple applications across various industries. Our specialty inks are used by our customers for a range of purposes from bringing entertainment products to life with a variety of color activations to providing document and brand authentication for security purposes aimed at reducing losses caused by fraudulent document reproduction or by product counterfeiting and/or diversion. Our primary markets are the large educational and toy products industry and the document and product authentication industry. We derive our revenues primarily from licensing our technologies on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis to licensees who incorporate our technologies into their product offering and from selling products incorporating our technologies to our licensees or to their licensed printers. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the **Company**, **we**, **our** or **us** and other similar terms means Nocopi Technologies, Inc., a Maryland corporation. Our website address is www.nocopi.com. Also, this report on Form 10-K includes the trade names of other companies. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the use or display by us of such other parties names and trade names in this report is not intended to and does not imply a relationship with, or endorsement or sponsorship of us by, any of these other parties. **Industry Overview and Market Trends** The key ingredients to an ink are pigments, dyes, resins, surfactants, dryers, oils, solvents, water, waxes, and various other additives. There are many different types of both printing processes and print applications, so the mixing or preparation of formulations for these quantities widely vary. Pigments and dyes are the key ingredient that comprise the inks color and are formulated from substances with certain characteristics that make them suitable for use on printed products. The printing inks market is seeing a shift as companies transition from manufacturing petroleum-based printing inks to manufacturing environmentally friendly, more sustainable printing inks. Green printing inks are based on sustainable materials such as soy and other plant-based sources and do not contain the heavy metals or other dangerous and toxic substances that petroleum-based printing inks do; thus they do not cause excessive pollution in the landfill. Examples of more environmentally friendly printing inks include water-based and oil-based printing inks. The use of green printing inks also reduces emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) associated with the printing process. In 2025, the global printing ink industry was estimated to be worth $35.8 billion and forecasted to grow between 2025 and 2030 by 2.4% CAGR to $40.2 billion according to Smithers report *The Future of Global Ink Markets to 2030*. The water-based printing inks market consists of sales of water-based printing inks and related services used for printing on fabric and paper. Water-based printing inks are referred to as aqueous inks and are dye and pigment inks and can be segmented by type into acrylic water-based inks, maleic water-based inks, and shellac water-based inks. Our Company does not produce commodity-based pigments. Rather, we source various pigments, dyes and other raw materials for ink, and then employ additional chemistry in formulating those materials into a highly engineered, specialty ink for a specific use. We are a specialty ink formulator within the ink industry that custom formulates, tests, and produces specialty inks that best meet our customers product needs and color demands. While our sale of green inks were slightly lower year-over-year, we believe our customers demands continue to shift with the trend towards utilizing more green printing inks. In 2025, approximately 35.3% of the ink sales were green printing inks, compared to 38.3% in 2024. As the green printing ink market continues to grow, we expect to continue to transition towards manufacturing environmentally friendly, more sustainable printing inks and away from manufacturing petroleum-based printing inks. We do not expect the green printing ink trend to adversely affect any aspects of our operations. | 1 | | | | | **Products and Technology** We are a niche formulator of specialty inks and our specialty ink portfolio is backed by years of research and development efforts, trade secrets, and patents we have been granted in the United States, Canada, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Luxembourg, and Liechtenstein. We currently have patent protection on substantially all our of security inks including our Rub & Reveal system and our Rub-It & Color technology. Our goal is to provide our customers with specialized ink formulations with rapid design, test and production capabilities. We aim to serve our customers demand for unique product needs and security needs from our specialty inks through applying our industry knowledge, our technical expertise, our raw material procurement leverage, our product breadth, and our manufacturing operations capabilities to deliver ink formulations both domestically and internationally. We believe that our role in our customers value chain remains an essential component of their product offering as our customers continually rely upon supplier partners, such as our Company, that provide advanced solutions to improve their products appeal, marketability, differentiation, performance, and overall competitive advantage. We currently serve end markets that include children entertainment and toy products and anti-counterfeiting, anti-diversion segments that include industrial marking, security packaging for cosmetics and consumer products, and point of sales protection. We derive our revenues primarily from product sales of our inks as well as from licensing and royalty fees of our technologies on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis to licensees who incorporate our technologies into their product offering and from selling products incorporating our technologies to our licensees or to their licensed printers. We are currently seeking to expand into other markets. *Entertainment and Toy Technologies and Products* Across the Entertainment and Toy Products category, we market our Rub-it & Color technology which consists of specialty inks that are produced in a variety of colors and can be revealed by rubbing with a fingernail or other firm object such as a plastic pen cap. Rub-it & Color ink technology can be used for coloring books, activity kits, play sheets, single use place mats, greeting cards, board games, promotional products, or any other paper-based application that needs some fun factor added. Two key features of our Rub-it & Color ink technology is that its safe and non-toxic, conforms to ASTM D4236 and F-963 and other toxicology tests. Our customers in the Entertainment and Toy Technologies and Products category capitalize on our mess free and non-toxic features of our ink products. Our patented, revolutionary, and award-winning Rub-it & Color technology can be utilized across a variety of products and applications needing some fun factor as well as providing safe and non-toxic conditions that conform to ASTM D4236 and F-963 and other toxicology tests. We license our Rub-it & Color technology through various license agreements that can be for exclusive and non-exclusive uses. These agreements cover both domestic and international geographies and can include specific distribution channels and specific lines of products and applications. Historically our license agreements have ranged anywhere from two to four years, but can also vary depending on our customer, use, and geography of the agreement. Certain of our license agreements with licensees contain renewal options and/or guaranteed minimum royalties, while others do not. We cannot assure you that any of our existing licenses will be renewed or will generate significant operating revenues for our Company in the future. In each of the years 2025 and 2024, we derived approximately 84% and 95%, respectively, of our total revenues from our licensees and their licensed printers in the entertainment and toy products market. We continue to pursue additional licensing opportunities for our Rub-it & Color ink technology in the large worldwide entertainment and toy products market and we also seek to renew our existing license agreements that are near expiration for extension terms. *Anti-Counterfeiting and Anti-Diversion Technologies and Products* ** Continuing developments in copying and printing technologies makes it easier than ever before to counterfeit a wide variety of documents. Counterfeit products are increasingly problematic for consumers, governments, and corporations. According to The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) data on counterfeiting and international trade, the total value of counterfeit and pirated goods was $1.023 trillion in 2023. And according to Corsearch, the value is set to reach approximately $1.79 trillion in 2030. Product labels and packaging, retail receipts, event and transportation tickets and the like are all susceptible to counterfeiting, causing economic losses to manufacturers of brand name products. With improvements in the copying and printing technologies making it easier to counterfeit labeling and packaging and increasing the losses to businesses from such counterfeiting activities. Our Copimark and Rub & Reveal technologies provide proprietary document authentication systems that are useful to businesses and brand owners desiring to authenticate a wide variety of printed materials and products. Our Copimark system enables businesses to print invisibly on certain areas of a document or packaging. When authentication of certain document or packaging is required, our invisible printing can be activated or revealed by use of a special highlighter pen. Other variations of our Copimark technology involve multiple color responses from a common pen, visible marks of one color that turn another color with the pen or visible and invisible marks that turn into a multicolored image. Our Rub & Reveal system permits the invisible printing of an authenticating symbol or code that can be revealed by rubbing a fingernail over the printed area. | 2 | | | | | Our technologies provide users with the ability to authenticate documents and detect counterfeit documents. Applications include the authentication of documents having intrinsic value, such as merchandise receipts, checks, travelers checks, gift certificates and event tickets, and the authentication of product labeling and packaging. When applied to product labels and packaging, our systems allow detection of counterfeit products, the labels and packaging of which would not contain the authenticating marks invisibly printed on the packaging or labels of the legitimate product. Our marketing efforts for these technologies are focused on specific industries we believe may be affected by product counterfeiting. These technologies also combat product diversion (i.e. sale of legitimate products through unauthorized distribution channels or in unauthorized markets). Another of our related technologies, our invisible inkjet technology, permits manufacturers and distributors to track the movement of products from production to ultimate consumption when coupled with proprietary software. The track and trace capability provided by this technology is an attractive capability to brand owners. Our ink technology is also utilized in retail receipt and document fraud markets through licensing arrangements with four printers and distributors in the United States and Canada who provide loss prevention products to retailers and other outlets. We market these technologies through the use of licensed printers and distributors. Contrast Technologies, formerly known as Euro-Nocopi, S.A., is a former affiliate of our Company that, since June 2003, has held a perpetual royalty-free license to utilize certain of our anti-counterfeiting and anti-diversion technologies in Europe. **Product Revenue** The following table illustrates the approximate percentage of our Companys total revenues accounted for by each type of its products for each of the last two fiscal years: | | | Year Ended December 31, | | | | Product Type | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Entertainment and Toy Technologies and Products | | | 84 | % | | | 95 | % | | | Anti-Counterfeiting and Anti-Diversion Technologies and Products | | | 16 | % | | | 5 | % | | **Marketing** Our current marketing efforts are focused on commercializing our developed technologies across current and new geographic and market areas. We sell products through both multiyear license agreements with our existing customers as well as direct sales to a range of end customers through our sales staff. We primarily use truck carriers and freight service providers to transport our products to customers from our manufacturing facility. Our marketing approach utilizes our dynamic production capabilities of our products and technologies. **Acquisition Strategy** Our growth strategy includes expanding our business through acquisitions of other companies with competing or complementary services, technologies or businesses in order to expand our product and service offerings to grow our free cash flow. We are currently actively engaged in the process to identify acquisition candidates and negotiate transactions. As of the date of this report on Form 10-K, we have no agreements to make any acquisition. We expect to fund our business expansion through the issuance of debt or equity securities, the payment of cash, the exchange of services, or any combination thereof. **Major Customers** During 2025, we made sales or obtained revenues equal to 10% or more of our Companys 2025 total revenues from two non-affiliated customers who individually accounted for approximately 23% and 52%, respectively, of 2025 revenues of our Company. During 2024, we made sales or obtained revenues equal to 10% or more of our Companys 2024 total revenues from two non-affiliated customers who individually accounted for approximately 18% and 70%, respectively, of 2024 revenues of our Company. Additional information concerning our major customers is contained in Note 11 to the Financial Statements, attached as Appendix A to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. | 3 | | | | | **Manufacturing** Our Company operates a manufacturing facility located at our corporate headquarters at 480 Shoemaker Road, Suite 104, King of Prussia, Pennsylvania 19406. At this location, we also have product development, sales, and administrative operations located adjacent to our production floor area. Our formulation and production methodologies aim to consistently achieve the highest technical standards while simultaneously reaching fast lead times of production and delivery for our customers. We have established a quality control program that currently entails laboratory analysis of developed technologies; and when warranted, our specially trained technicians travel to third party production facilities to train client staff and monitor our manufacturing process. We also strive to improve our production efficiencies and data controls to target less material waste as well as attempt more sustainable sourcing of raw materials. **Patents** Our Company has been granted various patents in the United States, Canada, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Luxembourg, and Liechtenstein. Patents may exist for 20 years from filing date and we actively monitor the marketplace to employ management processes designed to rigorously enforce our legal ownership of intellectual property. We currently have patent protection on substantially all of our security inks including our RUB & REVEAL system, and on our Rub-it & Color technology. Our latest patent protects our newly developed technology that may have applications in the entertainment and toy products market. In the United States and some other countries, patent applications are automatically published at a specified time after filing. Since we are obligated to pay annuities from time to time on our patents to keep them in force, we annually evaluate our patent portfolio to determine which patents we will continue to maintain. In Europe, annuities for European patents are paid by Contrast Technologies, formerly known as Euro-Nocopi, S.A., since Europe is where they hold a perpetual royalty-free license to exploit certain of our anti-counterfeiting and anti-diversion technologies. **Research and Development** Our research and development activities are primarily focused on advancing our portfolio of ink technologies. We aim to successfully develop new chemistry formulations, new market-changing technologies and new customer driven solutions. Our research and development efforts support our commercial development activities while also attempting to improve our manufacturing operations. We are presently conducting research and development activities in the following three areas: (1) refining our present product portfolio, (2) developing specific customer applications, and (3) expanding our technology into new areas of implementation. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we spent approximately $179,900 and $178,200, respectively, on research and development. We continue to focus our research and development activities to develop and market additional new products and applications. **Competition** We compete in the fragmented specialty ink industry which is highly competitive. Competition is based on several key criteria which include quality, price, service, performance, product innovation, product recognition, speed, and delivery. Our competitors range from large, publicly owned international companies with broad product offerings to local, privately held independent specialty producers offering a specific market niche or product. Overall, many participants tend to offer a varied and broad array of product lines designed to meet specific customer requirements. The ink industry has become increasingly global as participants have focused on establishing and maintaining leadership positions outside of their home markets. Many of these participants product lines face increasing competition due to industry consolidation, pricing pressures and competing technologies. Nonetheless, we believe our patented and proprietary technologies provide a unique and cost-effective solution for our customers. To improve our competitive position, we are building and leveraging our corporate brand as a differentiator to create value and better communicate our specialty production capabilities which we believe make it easier to introduce new product lines and applications to provide scale to our operations and ultimately enable us to successfully compete in the market. **** | 4 | | | | | **Employees and Human Capital** We currently have seven full-time employeesand believe that we have good relations with our employees. We are committed to providing a healthy environment and safe workplace by operating in accordance with established health and safety protocols within our facility and maintaining a strong health and safety compliance program. We prioritize, manage, and carefully track safety performance at our facility and integrate sound safety practices in every aspect of our operations. **Regulation of our Business** We are subject to common business, tax and regulations pertaining to the operation of our business. We believe that we are in compliance with all applicable governmental regulations. **Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations** We conduct our business operations solely within the United States; however, we have licensees and customers in Europe, South America, Asia and Australia. These licensees and customers accounted for approximately 61% of our gross revenues in 2025 and approximately 77% of our gross revenues in 2024. Additional information concerning our foreign and domestic operations is contained in Note 11 to our Financial Statements, attached as Appendix A to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. **Available Information** We are required to file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. Information that we file with the SEC is available at the SECs website at www.sec.gov. We also make available free of charge on or through our website, at www.nocopi, our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with the SEC. The information on our website is not, and shall not be deemed to be, a part hereof or incorporated into this or any of our other filings with the SEC. **Item 1A. Risk Factors** *Our Companys operating results, financial condition and stock price are subject to certain risks, some of which are beyond its control. These risks could cause our Companys actual operating and financial results to differ materially from those expressed in its forward-looking statements, including the risks described below and the risks identified in other documents which are filed and furnished with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.* **We are dependent upon major customers.** We are dependent on our licensees to develop new products and markets that will generate increases in its licensing and product revenues. The inability of our licensees to maintain at least current levels of sales of products utilizing our technologies could adversely affect our operating results and cash flow. To the extent that our licensees are adversely affected by negative economic conditions, our revenues may also be negatively impacted. We derive a significant percentage of our revenues through licensing relationships with two major customers. Revenues obtained directly from these customers and indirectly, through our customers third party licensed printers, equaled approximately 80% of our Companys revenues in 2025. Receivables from these two licensees and their third party authorized printers were approximately 93% of our Companys net accounts receivable at December 31 2025. One of our license agreements expires in 2028 and contains guaranteed minimum royalties, which historically are met. The other license agreement expires in 2027. Both license agreements contain renewal options; but there can be no assurances that one or both of the licenses will continue in force at the same or more favorable terms beyond their current termination dates, nor can there be any assurances that the relationships with these two licensees will generate increased revenues for our Company in the future. | 5 | | | | | **We may be unable to develop new business.** Our management believes that any significant improvement in our Companys cash flow must result from increases in revenues from traditional sources and from new revenue sources, potentially including acquired businesses. Our ability to develop new revenues may depend on the extent of its marketing activities, acquisition activities and its research and development activities, all of which are limited. We cannot assure you that the resources that our Company can devote to marketing, finding suitable acquisitions and to research and development will be sufficient to increase its revenues to levels that will enable it to maintain positive operating cash flow in the future. **Our inability to successfully acquire and integrate other businesses, assets, products or technologies could harm our operating results.** We are actively evaluating business acquisitions that we believe could complement or expand our existing product and service offerings. From time to time, we may enter into letters of intent with companies with which we are negotiating potential acquisitions or as to which we are conducting due diligence. Although we are currently not a party to any binding definitive agreement with respect to potential business acquisitions, we may enter into these types of arrangements in the future, which could materially decrease our amount of available cash or require us to seek additional equity or debt financing. We have limited experience in successfully acquiring and integrating businesses, products and technologies. We may not be successful in negotiating the terms of any potential acquisition, conducting thorough due diligence, financing the acquisition or effectively integrating the acquired business, product or technology into our existing business and operations. Our due diligence may fail to identify all of the problems, liabilities or other shortcomings or challenges of an acquired business, product or technology, including issues related to intellectual property, product quality regulatory compliance practices, revenue recognition or other accounting practices, or employee or customer issues. We may encounter difficulties retaining key employees of the acquired company or integrating diverse business cultures. Additionally, in connection with any business acquisitions we complete, we may not achieve the synergies or other benefits we expect to achieve, and we may incur write-downs, impairment charges or unforeseen liabilities that could negatively affect our operating results or financial position or could otherwise harm our business. If we finance acquisitions using existing cash, the reduction of our available cash could cause us to face liquidity issues or cause other unanticipated problems in the future. If we finance acquisitions by issuing equity securities, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders may be diluted, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. Further, contemplating or completing an acquisition and integrating an acquired business could divert management and employee time and resources from other matters. **We may be unable to obtain raw materials and products for resale.** We use a large volume of raw materials. From time to time, our Company is required to pay cash in advance of shipment to certain of its suppliers. Our inability to obtain materials on a timely basis and the possibility that certain vendors may permanently discontinue supplying our Company with needed products and services may result in delayed shipments to customers and further impact our Companys ability to service its customers, thereby adversely affecting our Companys relationships with its customers and licensees. We cannot assure you that our Company will be able to maintain its vendor relationships in an acceptable manner. **We may experience uneven patterns of quarterly and annual operating results.** Our Companys revenues, which are derived primarily from licensing and sales of products incorporating its technologies as well as royalties from these products, are difficult to forecast; such forecasting difficulty is due to, among other reasons, the long sales cycle of our Companys technologies, the potential for customer delay or deferral of implementation of our Companys technologies, the size and timing of inception of individual license agreements, the success of our Companys licensees and strategic partners in exploiting the market for our licensed products, modifications of customer budgets, and uneven patterns of royalty revenue and product orders. As our revenue base is not substantial, delays in the finalization of license contracts, the implementation of our technology to initiate the revenue stream and the ordering decisions of customers can have a material adverse effect on our Companys quarterly and annual revenue expectations. As our operating expenses are substantially fixed, income expectations will be subject to a similar adverse outcome. As licensees for the entertainment and toy products markets are added, the predictability of our Companys revenue stream may be further impacted. Other important factors that could cause our revenue and operating results to fluctuate from quarter to quarter include: | | | our ability to retain existing customers, attract new customers and satisfy our customers requirements; | | | | | general economic conditions; | | | | | changes in our pricing policies; | | | | | our ability to expand our business; | | | | | our ability to successfully integrate our acquired businesses; | | | | | new product and service introductions; | | | | | technical difficulties or interruptions in our services; | | | | | costs associated with future acquisitions of businesses; and | | | | | extraordinary expenses such as litigation or other dispute-related settlement payments. | | Some of these factors are not within our control, and the occurrence of one or more of them may cause our operating results to vary widely. As such, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. **Our intellectual property rights may not be fully protected.** Our Company relies on a combination of protections as may be available under applicable domestic, foreign or international patent, trademark and trade secret laws. We also rely on confidentiality, non-analysis and licensing agreements to establish and protect our rights in its proprietary technologies. While we attempt to protect these rights, our technologies may be compromised through reverse engineering, independent invention or other means. In addition, our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights through appropriate legal action has been and will continue to be limited by its tight liquidity. We cannot assure you that our Company will be able to protect the basis of its technologies from discovery by third parties or to preclude third parties from conducting activities that infringe on our Companys rights. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to prosecute new patents and maintain issued patents. As a result, our customer and licensee relationships could be adversely affected, and the value of our technologies and intellectual property (including their value upon liquidation) could be substantially diminished. **Our Companys revenue is susceptible to changes in general economic conditions.** Our Companys revenue is susceptible to changes in general economic conditions. Our sales, liquidity and overall results of operations may be negatively affected by decreasing consumer confidence, slowdowns in consumer spending or other downturns in the U.S. economy as a whole or in any geographic markets from which we derive revenue. In addition, these factors may result in decreased customer and licensee demand for our products and may negatively impact our ability to develop new customers and licensees. Due to uncertainties surrounding the worldwide economy, we are unable to predict the effect of such conditions on our customers and licensees. Consequently, we cannot predict the scope or magnitude of the negative effect resulting from ongoing global financial uncertainties or economic slowdowns. **We are subject to regulatory compliance related to our operations.** We are subject to various U.S. governmental regulations related to occupational safety and health, labor and business practices. Failure to comply with current or future regulations could result in the imposition of substantial fines, suspension of production, alterations of our production processes, cessation of operations, or other actions, which could harm our business. **We currently, and may in the future, have assets held at financial institutions that may exceed the insurance coverage offered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the loss of such assets would have a severe negative effect on our operations and liquidity.** We currently maintain, and may in the future maintain, our cash assets at certain financial institutions in the U.S. in amounts that are, and in the future may be, in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit of $250,000. At December 31, 2025, our Companys deposits and short-term investments with a financial institution were $11,303,600in excess of the FDIC deposit insurance coverage of $250,000. In the event of a failure of any financial institutions where we maintain our deposits or other assets, we may incur a loss to the extent such loss exceeds the FDIC insurance limitation, which could have a material adverse effect upon our liquidity, financial condition and our results of operations. **** | 6 | | | | | **We may incur liability arising from the use of hazardous materials.** **** Our business and our facilities are subject to a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the generation, handling, treatment, storage and disposal of certain toxic or hazardous materials and waste products that we use or generate in our operations. Many of these environmental laws and regulations subject current or previous owners or occupiers of land to liability for the costs of investigation, removal or remediation of hazardous materials. In addition, these laws and regulations typically impose liability regardless of whether the owner or occupier knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of any hazardous materials and regardless of whether the actions that led to the presence were taken in compliance with the law. In our business, we use hazardous materials that are stored on site. We use various chemicals in our manufacturing process that may be toxic and covered by various environmental controls. An unaffiliated waste hauler transports the waste created by use of these materials off-site. Many environmental laws and regulations require generators of waste to take remedial actions at an off-site disposal location even if the disposal was conducted lawfully. The requirements of these laws and regulations are complex, change frequently and could become more stringent in the future. Failure to comply with current or future environmental laws and regulations could result in the imposition of substantial fines, suspension of production, alteration of our production processes, cessation of operations or other actions, which could severely harm our business. **We may be unable to protect our information systems from cybersecurity attacks or incidents, or if our information systems are otherwise disrupted.** We depend on information technology, including public websites and cloud-based services, for many activities important to our business. If we do not allocate and effectively manage our resources necessary to build and sustain our information technology infrastructure, if we fail to timely identify or appropriately respond to cybersecurity incidents, or if our information systems are damaged, destroyed or shut down (whether as a result of natural disasters, fires (either directly or through smoke damage), power outages, acts of terrorism or other catastrophic events, network outages, software, equipment or telecommunications failures, user errors, or from deliberate cyberattacks such as malicious or disruptive software, denial of service attacks, malicious social engineering, hackers or otherwise), our business could be disrupted and we could be subject to: transaction errors; processing inefficiencies; the loss of, or failure to attract, new customers; our loss of revenues from unauthorized use, acquisition or disclosure of or access to confidential information; the loss of or damage to intellectual property or trade secrets, including the loss or unauthorized disclosure of sensitive data, confidential information or other assets; damage to our reputation; litigation; regulatory enforcement actions; violation of data privacy, security or other laws and regulations; and remediation costs. As with many innovations, artificial intelligence (or AI) presents risks, challenges, and unintended consequences that could affect its adoption, and therefore our business. AI algorithms and training methodologies may be flawed, ineffective or inadequate. The rapid evolution of AI, particularly the anticipated government regulation of AI, could require significant resources for compliance, whether in the development, testing or maintenance of such systems or software. AI development or deployment practices by us or third-party providers could increase vulnerability to cybersecurity risks and require additional resources to implement heightened cybersecurity measures to protect the security of our data. These deficiencies and other failures of any potential AI systems could subject us to competitive harm, regulatory action, legal liability, and brand or reputational harm. **We conduct significantly all of our business and manufacturing activities at our King of Prussia, PA facility, and circumstances beyond our control may result in considerable business interruptions.** We conduct all of our operations activities at our King of Prussia, PA facility. Our operations are vulnerable to interruption by fire, earthquake, floods or other natural disaster, quarantines or other disruptions associated with infectious diseases, national catastrophe, terrorist activities, war, disruptions in our computing and communications infrastructure due to power loss, telecommunications failure, human error, physical or electronic security breaches and computer viruses, and other events beyond our control. We do not have a detailed disaster recovery plan. **Changes in accounting principles and guidance, or their interpretation, could result in unfavorable accounting charges or effects, including changes to our previously filed financial statements, which could cause our stock price to decline.** We prepare our financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These principles are subject to interpretation by the SEC and various bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting principles and guidance. A change in these principles or guidance, or in their interpretations, may have a significant effect on our reported results and retroactively affect previously reported results. **** **If we fail to maintain an effective internal control environment as well as adequate control procedures over our financial reporting, investor confidence may be adversely affected thereby affecting the value of our stock price.** We are required to maintain proper internal control over our financial reporting and adequate controls related to our disclosures. As defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. If we fail to maintain adequate controls, our business, the results of operations, financial condition or the value of our stock may be adversely impacted. If the Company fails to establish and maintain an effective control environment or ICFR, the Companys consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and it could be required to revise or restate its financial results, which could materially and adversely affect the Companys business, results of operations and financial condition, restrict its ability to access the capital markets, require it to expend significant resources to remediate any such weakness, subject it to fines, penalties or judgments, harm its reputation or otherwise cause a decline in investor confidence, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. | 7 | | | | | **We are a small public company and the requirements of being a public company are a strain on the systems and resources, are a diversion to managements attention, and are costly.** As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Sarbanes-Oxley Act), and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act). The requirements of these rules and regulations increase the legal, accounting and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly and may also place strain on our personnel, systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and operating results. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. In particular, Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (Section 404), requires us to perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our compliance with applicable provisions of Section 404 requires that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management time on compliance-related issues as we implement additional corporate governance practices and comply with reporting requirements. Moreover, if we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 applicable to us in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources. Furthermore, investor perceptions of our Company may suffer if deficiencies are found, and this could cause a decline in the market price of our stock. Irrespective of compliance with Section 404, any failure of our internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our stated operating results and harm our reputation. If we are unable to implement these requirements effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting, or financial results. In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of managements time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be adversely affected. We expect these laws, rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to continue to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to incur substantial costs to maintain appropriate levels of coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee, and qualified executive officers. As a result of being a public company, our business and financial condition is more visible, which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and operating results could be adversely affected, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could divert the time and resources of our management and adversely affect our business and operating results. **** | 8 | | | | | **As a smaller reporting company that is not an accelerated filer, we are subject to scaled disclosure requirements that may make it more challenging for investors to analyze our results of operations and financial prospects.** As a smaller reporting company that is not an accelerated filer we (i) are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in our filings, (ii) are exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that independent registered public accounting firms provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and (iii) have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in our filings with the SEC, including being required to provide only two years of audited financial statements in annual reports. Consequently, it may be more challenging for investors to analyze our results of operations and financial prospects. **Our common stock is subject to volatility.** We cannot assure you that the market price for our common stock will remain at its current level, and a decrease in the market price could result in substantial losses for investors. The market price of our common stock may be significantly affected by one or more of the following factors: | | | announcements or press releases relating to our industry or to our own business or prospects; | | | | | regulatory, legislative, or other developments affecting us or our industry generally; | | | | | sales by holders of restricted securities pursuant to effective registration statements or exemptions from registration; and | | | | | market conditions specific to our Company, our industry and the stock market generally. | | **Future sales of our shares could depress the market price of our common stock.** 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 could occur. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. Any disposition by any of our large shareholders of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such dispositions could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. **** | 9 | | | | | **We do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our securities, so you will not be able to receive a return on your investment unless you sell your shares.** We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our securities. Unless we pay dividends, our security holders will not be able to receive a return on their securities unless they sell them. **There is a limited market for our common stock, which may make it more difficult for you to sell your stock.** Our Companys common stock is quoted on the OTC Market (OTCQB) under the symbol NNUP. The trading market for our common stock is limited, accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any markets that may develop for our common stock, your ability to sell our common stock, or the prices at which you may be able to sell our common stock. **Our common stock may be subject to the penny stock rules in the future. It may be more difficult to resell securities classified as penny stock.** The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define penny stock to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. While our common stock is presently exempt from being considered a penny stock because our net tangible assets exceed $2 million and we have been in continuous operations for at least (3) years, if we are unable to continue to qualify for this exemption, or any other available exemption from the definition of penny stock, our common stock will become a penny stock. These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as established customers or accredited investors. For example, broker-dealers must determine the appropriateness for non-qualifying persons of investments in penny stocks. Broker-dealers must also provide, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, disclose the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, furnish monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account, provide a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and receive the purchasers written agreement to the transaction. Legal remedies available to an investor in penny stocks may include the following: | | | If a penny stock is sold to the investor in violation of the requirements listed above, or other federal or states securities laws, the investor may be able to cancel the purchase and receive a refund of the investment. | | | | | If a penny stock is sold to the investor in a fraudulent manner, the investor may be able to sue the persons and firms that committed the fraud for damages. | | These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock. Many brokerage firms will discourage or refrain from recommending investments in penny stocks. Most institutional investors will not invest in penny stocks. In addition, many individual investors will not invest in penny stocks due, among other reasons, to the increased financial risk generally associated with these investments. For these reasons, penny stocks may have a limited market and, consequently, limited liquidity. We can give no assurance at what time, if ever, our common stock or will not be classified as a penny stock in the future. **** | 10 | | | | | **FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholders ability to buy and sell our stock.** In addition to the penny stock rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative, low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customers financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. The FINRA requirements may make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a stockholders ability to resell shares, as well as overall liquidity, of our common stock. **Provisions in our Companys charter and bylaws may delay or prevent an acquisition of our Company by a third party.** Our Companys charter, bylaws and Maryland law contain provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire our Company without the consent of our board of directors (the Board). Additionally, these provisions could lower the price that future investors might be willing to pay for shares of our common stock. These anti-takeover provisions: | | | authorize the Board to create and issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock, thereby increasing the number of outstanding shares, which can deter or prevent a takeover attempt; | | | | | prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates; | | | | | provide that any vacancy on the Board be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office even if remaining directors do not constitute a quorum; | | | | | provide that the Board be divided into three classes, with approximately one-third of the directors to be elected each year; | | | | | provide that the Board is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal our bylaws; | | | | | provide that our Companys stockholders may only remove any member of the Board by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast by our stockholders generally in the election of directors and, such removal is required to be for cause; and | | | | | provide that the number of directors on the Board shall be fixed only by vote of the Board ; | | Also, under Maryland law, business combinations, including mergers, consolidations, share exchanges, or, in circumstances specified in the statute, asset transfers or issuances or reclassifications of equity securities, between our Company and any interested stockholder, generally defined as any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of our Companys common stock, or any affiliate of an interested stockholder are prohibited for a five-year period, beginning on the most recent date such person became an interested stockholder. After this period, a combination of this type must be approved by two super-majority stockholder votes, unless common stockholders receive a minimum price, as defined under Maryland law, for their shares in the form of cash or other consideration in the same form as previously paid by the interested stockholder for its shares. The statute permits various exemptions from its provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by the Board prior to the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. **Our bylaws designate the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland as the sole and exclusive forum for certain actions, including derivative actions, which could limit a stockholders ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers, other employees, or the Companys stockholders and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.** Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland (the Maryland Circuit Court) (or, if the Maryland Circuit Court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Maryland) (the Exclusive Forum) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (a)(i) any action asserting an Internal Corporate Claim, as such term is defined in the MGCL (other than any action arising under federal securities laws), including, without limitation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of the applicable standard of conduct or any duty owed by any director or officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or to the stockholders of the Company or (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer or other employee of the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the MGCL, the Charter or these Bylaws, or (b) any other action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer or other employee of the Company that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district court for the District of Maryland (the Securities Act Exclusive Forum) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933. Although we believe these exclusive forum provisions benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of Maryland law for the specified types of actions and proceedings, these provisions may limit a stockholders ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers, or other employees and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. **** | 11 | | | | | **Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments** None. **Item 1C. Cybersecurity** **Risk Management and Strategy** We have processes to assess, identify and manage risks from cybersecurity threats as a part of our overall risk assessment process. On a regular basis we implement into our operations these cybersecurity processes, technologies, and controls to assess, identify, and manage material risks. We engage certain external advisors to enhance our cybersecurity oversight. To manage our material risks from cybersecurity threats and to protect against, detect, and prepare to respond to cybersecurity incidents, we undertake the below listed activities: | | | Monitor emerging data protection laws in conjunction with our advisors and implement changes to our processes to comply; | | | | | Maintain firewall and virus protection software; and | | | | | Maintain a cybersecurity insurance policy. | | As part of the above processes, we engage with third party providers to review our cybersecurity program and help identify areas for continued focus, improvement, and compliance. Our processes also include assessing cybersecurity threat risks associated with our use of third-party services providers in the normal course of business use. Third-party risks are included within our cybersecurity risk management processes discussed above. In addition, we assess cybersecurity considerations in our selection and oversight of our third-party services providers, including due diligence on our third parties that have access to our systems and facilities that house systems and data. The Audit Committee of our Board is responsible for oversight of our risk assessment, risk management and cybersecurity risks, and periodically updates our Board on such matters. Members of the Audit Committee engage in discussions with management on cybersecurity-related news events and discuss any updates to our cybersecurity risk management and strategy programs. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have not encountered risks from cybersecurity threats that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our business strategy, results of operations or financial position. **Item 2. Properties** Our corporate headquarters, research and ink production facilities are located at 480 Shoemaker Road, Suite 104, King of Prussia, Pennsylvania 19406. These premises consist of approximately 6,100 square feet of leased space. Our lease commenced in January 2014 and expires in December 2027. Current monthly rent under this lease is $7,397; this amount escalates annually by 3.5%. In addition to rent, we are also responsible for our pro-rata share of the operating costs of the building. We consider this space adequate for our current needs and additional space is available as needed. **Item 3. Legal Proceedings** None. **Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures** Not applicable. **** | 12 | | | | | **PART II** **Item 5. Market For Registrants Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities** **Market Information** Our common stock is traded on the OTCQB tier of the over-the-counter (OTC) market under the symbol NNUP. Investors can find Real-Time quotes and market information on our Company on www.otcmarkets.com. Any over-the-counter market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. **Shareholders** As of March 11, 2026, we have a total of 11,101,789 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, held of record by approximately 335 holders of our common stock, including The Depository Trust Company, which holds shares of our common stock on behalf of an indeterminate number of beneficial owners. **Dividends** Our Company does not pay any cash dividends on its common stock. **Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities** None. **Issuer Repurchases of Equity Securities** None. **Item 6.

Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.* **** | 13 | | | | | **Background Overview** Nocopi Technologies, Inc. develops and markets specialty reactive inks for multiple applications across various industries. Our specialty inks are used by our customers for a range of purposes from bringing entertainment products to life with a variety of color activations to providing document and brand authentication for security purposes aimed at reducing losses caused by fraudulent document reproduction or by product counterfeiting and/or diversion. Our primary markets are the large educational and toy products industry and the document and product authentication industry. We derive our revenues primarily from licensing our technologies on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis to licensees who incorporate our technologies into their product offering and from selling products incorporating our technologies to our licensees or to their licensed printers. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the **Company**, **we**, **our** or **us** and other similar terms means Nocopi Technologies, Inc., a Maryland corporation. **Results of Operations** Our Companys revenues are derived from (a) royalties paid by licensees of our technologies, (b) fees for the provision of technical services to licensees and (c) from the direct sale of (i) products incorporating our technologies, such as inks, security paper and pressure sensitive labels, and (ii) equipment used to support the application of our technologies, such as ink-jet printing systems. Royalties consist of guaranteed minimum royalties payable by our licensees in certain cases and additional royalties which typically vary with the licensees sales or production of products incorporating our licensed technology. Service fees and sales revenues vary directly with the number of units of service or product provided. Our Company recognizes revenue on its lines of business as follows: | | a. | License fees for the use of our technology and royalties with guaranteed minimum amounts are recognized at a point in time when the term begins; | | | | b. | Product sales are recognized at the time of the transfer of goods to customers at an amount that our Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for these goods, which is at the time of shipment; and | | | | c. | Fees for technical services are recognized at the time of the transfer of services to customers at an amount that our Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the services. | | We believe that, as fixed cost reductions beyond those we have achieved in recent years may not be achievable, our operating results are substantially dependent on revenue levels. Because revenues derived from licenses and royalties carry a much higher gross profit margin than other revenues, operating results are also substantially affected by changes in revenue mix. Both the absolute amount of our Companys revenues and the mix among the various sources of revenue are subject to substantial fluctuation. We have a relatively small number of substantial customers rather than a large number of small customers. Accordingly, changes in the revenue received from a significant customer can have a substantial effect on our Companys total revenue, revenue mix and overall financial performance. Such changes may result from a substantial customers product development delays, engineering changes, changes in product marketing strategies, production requirements and the like. In addition, certain customers have, from time to time, sought to renegotiate certain provisions of their license agreements and, when our Company agrees to revise such terms, revenues from the customer may be adversely affected. **Comparison of the Years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024** Revenues for 2025 were $1,493,800, a decrease of approximately 29%, or $624,000, from $2,117,800 in 2024. Licenses, royalties and fees increased in 2025 by approximately 18%, or $93,600, to $605,100 from $511,500 in 2024. The increase in licenses, royalties and fees in 2025 compared to 2024 is due primarily to a new license which commenced on June 1, 2025 and a renewal of an existing license on January 1, 2025 offset by lower royalties from our Companys licensees in entertainment and toy products market. We cannot assure you that the marketing and product development activities of our Companys licensees or other businesses in the entertainment and toy products market will produce a significant increase in revenues for our Company , nor can the timing of any potential revenue increases be predicted, particularly given the uncertain economic conditions presently being experienced. Product and other sales decreased by $717,600, or approximately 45%, to $888,700 in 2025 from $1,606,300 in 2024. The lower level of ink sales in 2025 compared to 2024 is due primarily to lower ink shipments to the third party authorized printer used by two of our Companys major licensees in the entertainment and toy products market. Sales of ink to the licensed printers of its licensees in the entertainment and toy products market were approximately $722,500 lower in 2025 compared to 2024. Sales of security ink in 2025 to our Companys licensees in the retail receipt and document fraud market increased by approximately $3,100 compared to 2024. | 14 | | | | | Our Company derived $1,260,900, or approximately 84% of total revenues, from licensees and other licensed printers in the entertainment and toy products market in 2025 compared to $2,008,700, or approximately 95% of total revenues, in 2024. The decrease in revenues from the licensees and other authorized printers in the entertainment and toy products market in 2025 compared to 2024 is due primarily to the lower ink shipments to the third party authorized printer used by two of our Companys major licensees in the entertainment and toy products market. Our Companys licensees in the entertainment and toy products market continue to develop new products for this market and improve other current offerings; however, other sales will be affected by marketplace reaction to the new and improved products, economic conditions that influence this market segment and the economy as a whole. Revenues that our Company derives from these licensees will be similarly affected. We cannot assure you that the marketing and product development activities of licensees in the entertainment and toy products market will produce increased revenues for our Company in future periods, nor can the timing of any potential revenue increases be predicted, particularly given the uncertain economic conditions presently being experienced. Our Companys gross profit decreased to $813,400, or approximately 54% of revenues, in 2025 from $1,100,300, or approximately 52%, in 2024. The lower gross profit in 2025 compared to 2024 results primarily from higher gross revenues from licenses, royalties and fees offset by lower product and other sales in 2025 compared to 2024. Licenses, royalties and fees have historically carried a higher gross profit than product sales, which generally consist of supplies or other manufactured products that incorporate our Companys technologies or equipment used to support the application of its technologies. These items (except for inks which are manufactured by our Company) are generally purchased from third-party vendors and resold to the end-user or licensee and carry a lower gross profit than licenses, royalties and fees. The lower gross profit in 2025 compared to 2024 reflects higher gross revenues from licenses, royalties and fees offset by lower gross revenues from product and other sales in 2025 compared to 2024. As the variable component of cost of revenues related to licenses, royalties and fees is a low percentage of these revenues and the fixed component is not substantial, period to period changes in revenues from licenses, royalties and fees can significantly affect both gross profit from licenses, royalties and fees as well as overall gross profit. Due primarily to the higher revenues from licenses, royalties and fees in 2025 compared to 2024, the gross profit from licenses, royalties and fees increased to approximately 74% of revenues from licenses, royalties and fees in 2025 from approximately 57% in 2024. The gross profit, expressed as a percentage of revenues, of product and other sales is dependent on both the overall sales volumes of product and other sales and on the mix of the specific goods produced and/or sold. The gross profit from product and other sales was approximately 41% of revenues in 2025 and 50% in 2024. Research and development expenses were $179,900 in 2025 compared to $178,200 in 2024. The increase in 2025 compared to 2024 resulted primarily from rent & occupancy expenses in 2025 compared to 2024. Sales and marketing expenses were $282,600 in 2025 compared to $322,400 in 2024. The decrease in 2025 compared to 2024 is due primarily to lower commission expense on the lower level of revenues in 2025. General and administrative expenses decreased to $952,300 in 2025 from $3,900,000 in 2024. The decrease in 2025 compared to 2024 is due primarily to lower stock-based compensation and employee related expenses offset by higher rent & occupancy expenses. | 15 | | | | | There was no income tax expense (benefit) reflected in the results of operations for 2025 and 2024. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, our Company had federal net operating loss carry forwards of $804,000 and $707,000 respectively, and state net operating loss carryforwards of $3,176,000 and $2,568,000, respectively, which may be used to offset future taxable income. The remaining federal NOL's will not expire but will be limited to 80% of taxable income. Pennsylvania NOL's started to expire in 2024, with $1,307,000 expiring by 2032. The remaining Pennsylvania NOL's expire in 20 years. Florida NOL's will not expire. Other income decreased to $446,500 in 2025 from $621,400 in 2024. The decrease is due to other income in 2024 of $84,000, which was receipt of the 2021 Employee Retention Tax Credit and a decrease in interest income. Our net (loss) of $154,900 in 2025 compared to the net (loss) of $2,678,900 in 2024 resulted primarily from a lower gross profit on a lower level of product and other sales and by lower overhead expenses in 2025 compared to 2024. Our management does not believe that inflation and changing prices have had a significant effect on our revenues and results of operations during the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. **Plan of Operation, Liquidity and Capital Resources** Our Companys cash increased to $11,553,600at December 31, 2025 from $10,839,700 at December 31, 2024. During 2025, our Company provided $713,900 in its operating activities. Our Companys revenues decreased approximately 29% to $1,493,800 in 2025 from $2,117,800 in 2024 primarily as a result of higher licensing revenue from our Companys licensees in the entertainment and toy products market and lower revenue from products and other sales. Our Companys gross profit increased approximately 2% to $813,400 in 2025 from $1,100,300 in 2024 primarily as a result of higher license fees from the licensees in the entertainment and toy products market and lower from product and other sales. Our Companys total expenses decreased in 2025 compared to 2024, our Companys net interest income decreased in 2025 compared to 2024 and our Companys other income decreased in 2025 compared to 2024. The Company had a decrease in stock-based compensation of approximately $2,606,600 in 2025 when compared to 2024. As a result of these factors, our Company generated a net loss of $154,900 in 2025 compared to a net loss of $2,678,900 in 2024. Our Company had positive operating cash flow of $713,900 in 2025. At December 31, 2025, our Company had working capital of $12,711,800 and stockholders equity of $13,603,800. For the full year of 2024, our Company had a net loss of $2,678,900 and had positive operating cash flow of $594,800. At December 31, 2024, our Company had working capital of $12,388,300 and stockholders equity of $12,048,500. We may need to obtain additional capital in the future to further support the working capital requirements associated with our existing revenue base and to develop new revenue sources. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in obtaining such additional capital, if needed. Our plan of operation for the twelve months beginning with the date of this annual report consists of concentrating available human and financial resources to continue to capitalize on the specific business relationships our Company has developed in the entertainment and toy products market. We believe our current cash and cash equivalents, as well as cash provided from our operating activities, is sufficient to meet our ongoing operations for the next 12 months. This includes two licensees that have been marketing products incorporating our Companys technologies since 2012. These two licensees maintain a significant presence in the entertainment and toy products market and are well known and highly regarded participants in this market. We anticipate that these two licensees will expand their current offerings that incorporate our technologies and will introduce and market new products that will incorporate our technologies available to them under their license agreements with our Company. We will continue to develop various applications for these licensees. We also plan to expand our licensee base in the entertainment and toy market. We currently have additional licensees marketing or developing products incorporating our technologies in certain geographic and niche markets of the overall entertainment and toy products market. Our Company maintains its presence in the retail loss prevention market and believes that revenue growth in this market can be achieved through increased security ink sales to its licensees in this market. We will continue to adjust our production and technical staff as necessary and, subject to available financial resources, invest in capital equipment needed to support potential growth in ink production requirements beyond our current capacity. Additionally, we will pursue opportunities to market our current technologies in specific security and non-security markets. There can be no assurances that these efforts will enable our Company to generate additional revenues and positive cash flow. | 16 | | | | | Our Company has received, and may in the future seek, additional capital in the form of debt, equity or both, to support our working capital requirements and to provide funding for other business opportunities. We cannot assure you that if we require additional capital, that we will be successful in obtaining such additional capital, or that such additional capital, if obtained, will enable our Company to generate additional revenues and positive cash flow. As previously stated, we generate a significant portion of our total revenues from licensees in the entertainment and toy products market. These licensees generally sell their products through retail outlets. In the future, such sales may be adversely affected by changes in consumer spending that may occur as a result of an uncertain economic environment in 2025 and beyond and its effect on the global economy, including geopolitical instability such as the Russia-Ukraine war and the related supply chain disruptions as the record inflation, lower demand and significantly higher interest rates currently being experienced in the United States along with the probability of an economic recession both in the United States and globally. As a result, our revenues, results of operations and liquidity may be negatively impacted in future periods. **Contractual Obligations** We conduct our operations in leased facilities under a non-cancelable operating lease expiring on December 31, 2027. Future minimum lease payments under this operating lease at December 31, 2025 are: $88,700 for 2026 and $91,900 for 2027. Total rental expense under operating leases was $83,500 and $70,500 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. **Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements** In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740).* The amendments in this update related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendments allow investors to better assess, in their capital allocation decisions, how an entitys worldwide operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operational opportunities affect its income tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. The other amendments in this Update improve the effectiveness and comparability of disclosures by (1) adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General ApplicationGeneral Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and (2) removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, on a retrospective basis within its annual reporting for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 resulted in enhanced disclosures related to the effective tax-rate reconciliation, including additional disaggregation requirements prescribed by the standard. **Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements** None. **Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk** Not Applicable. **Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data** Our Financial Statements are attached as Appendix A (following Exhibits) and included as part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. A list of our Financial Statements is provided in response to Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. **Item 9. Changes In And Disagreements With Accountants On Accounting and Financial Disclosure** None. **Item 9A. Controls and Procedures** **Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures** As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Company evaluated the effectiveness and design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Our Companys disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that we designed to ensure that our Company records, processes, summarizes, and reports in a timely manner the information that it must disclose in reports that our Company files with or submits to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer reviewed and participated in this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, our Company made the determination that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective. | 17 | | | | | **Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting** Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in *Internal Control Integrated Framework* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025. Our Companys internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of the assets of our Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of our Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of our Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. In addition, the design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and controls may become inadequate if conditions change. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Additionally, given the size of the Company, there is limited segregation of duties within the accounting and finance functions. Specifically, our Chief Financial Officer performs transaction recording functions across multiple areas. Management evaluated this condition, including the impact of compensating controls and mitigating factors, such as executive managements involvement in oversight of financial reporting, including periodic review of financial results, monitoring of revenue activity, and approval of significant transactions. Based on this evaluation, management determined that this condition does not create a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis and, therefore, does not constitute a material weakness. As the Company grows, management will seek to continue enhancing controls designed to mitigate the risks associated with limited segregation of duties, including strengthening the documentation and consistency of review procedures over financial reporting, revenue, and key transactions. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. **Changes in Company Internal Controls** No change in our Companys internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. **Item 9B. Other Information** From time to time, certain of our executive officers and directors have, and we expect they will in the future, enter into, amend or terminate written trading arrangements pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act or otherwise. For the quarter ended December31, 2025, none of our officers or directors adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act and/or any non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement, as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K. **Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections** Not Applicable. | 18 | | | | | **PART III** **Item 10.

(the Company) as of December31,2025 and 2024, and the related statements of comprehensive loss, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In the opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December31,2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years in the period ended December31,2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. **** **** **Basis for Opinion** We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Nocopi Technologies, Inc. (the Company) as of December31,2025 and 2024, and the related statements of comprehensive loss, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In the opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December31,2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years in the period ended December31,2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We conducted the audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of the audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. The audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit provides a reasonable basis for the opinion. **Critical Audit Matters** Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved the especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters. /s/ Stephano Slack LLC We have served as the Companys auditor since 2024.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024** **1. Organization of the Company** Nocopi Technologies, Inc. (the Company) is organized under the laws of the State of Maryland. Its main business activities are the development and distribution of document security products and the licensing of its patented reactive ink technologies for the Entertainment and Toy and the Document and Product Authentication markets in the United States and foreign countries. The Company operates in one principal industry segment. **2. Significant Accounting Policies** **Financial Statement Presentation -**Amounts included in the accompanying financial statements have been rounded to the nearest hundred, except for number of shares and per share information. **Estimates** - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Cash and cash equivalents**consist of demand deposits and money-market funds. **Fair Value of Financial Instruments** - The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, short-term investments and trade and other payables. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, short-term investments and trade and other payables approximate their fair value because of their short maturities. The framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described as follows: Level 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company can access. Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means | F-7 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024 | | If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The asset or liabilitys fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. **Accounts receivable and credit policies**- Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms generally requiring payment within 30 days from the invoice date. Customer account balances with invoices dated over 90 days old are considered delinquent. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance that reflects managements best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for credit losses, which is an estimate of amounts that may not be collectible. The Company uses historical loss information based on the aging of receivables, adjusted for managements expectations about current and future economic conditions, as the basis to determine expected credit losses. Management exercises significant judgment in determining expected credit losses. Key inputs include macroeconomic factors, industry trends, and the creditworthiness of counterparties. Management believes that the composition of receivables at year-end is consistent with historical conditions as credit terms and practices and the client base has not changed significantly. **Inventory**consists primarily of ink components and is stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. **Fixed assets** are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Furniture, fixtures and equipment are generally depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated service lives. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of five years or the term of the lease. Major renovations and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance, repairs and minor items are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal, assets and related depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount, less proceeds from disposal, is charged or credited to income. **Patent costs**are charged to expense as incurred. **Revenues** - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. The Companys revenues are derived from royalties paid by licensees of the Companys technologies, fees for the provision of technical services to licensees, and from the direct sale of (i) products incorporating the Companys technologies, such as inks, security paper and pressure-sensitive labels, and (ii) equipment used to support the application of the Companys technologies. Royalties consist of guaranteed minimum royalties payable by certain licensees and additional royalties which vary based on the licensees sales or production of products incorporating the licensed technology. Service fees and product sales revenues vary directly with the number of units provided. Fixed-Fee License Agreements Under certain license agreements, customers are required to pay guaranteed minimum royalties over the term of the contract. Management has determined that these licenses represent the right to use functional intellectual property, as the licensed technology has standalone functionality and does not require ongoing substantive activities affecting its utility. Accordingly, revenue related to guaranteed minimum royalties is recognized at a point in time when the license is made available to the customer, provided the contract is enforceable and collection is probable. Because guaranteed minimum payments are received over multiple years, future payments are discounted to present value when a significant financing component exists. The related interest income is recognized over the collection period using the effective interest method. | F-8 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024 | | License Agreements Future Technology Certain license arrangements provide access to future or evolving ink technologies. Revenue under these agreements is recognized over time as the Company satisfies its performance obligations over the contractual term. Sales-Based Royalties In addition to guaranteed minimum royalties, certain license agreements provide for royalties based on the licensees sales or production volumes. Royalties in excess of guaranteed minimum amounts are recognized in the period in which the underlying customer sales occur. Product Sales Revenue from product sales is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, generally upon shipment under FOB shipping point terms. Significant judgment is required in determining the timing of revenue recognition for license arrangements and in assessing whether a significant financing component exists. **Income taxes** - Deferred income taxes are provided for all temporary differences and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. **Stock-based compensation** - The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the shorter of the vesting period or the requisite service periods using the straight-line method. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with FASB ASU 2017-07, with ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Based Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2018-07), which aligns accounting for share-based payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees under the existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equity-based payments to nonemployees under Subtopic 505-50, Equity - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Non-employee equity-based payments are recorded as an expense over the service period, as if the Company had paid cash for the services. **Earnings per share** - The Company follows FASB ASC 260 resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share are computed using weighted average number of common shares plus dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive, i.e. the exercise prices of the outstanding stock options were greater than the market price of the common stock. Since the Company did not have any common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, basic and diluted earnings per share were the same. **Comprehensive income**- The Company follows FASB ASC 220 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Since the Company has no items of other comprehensive income, comprehensive income is equal to net income. | F-9 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024 | | **** **Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets** - The Company follows FASB ASC 360-35, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances which indicate the existence of an impairment which would be material to the Companys annual financial statements. **Segment Reporting** - The company manages its operations as a single operating segment for the purpose of assessing performance and making operating decisions, and thus reports as a single operating segment. The companys singular focus is on the development of its ink technology. Revenue to date has been generated through the Companys license agreements and sale of ink with its collaborators, see Note 11 and 13 for geographic information of revenue. All tangible assets are held in the United States. **Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements -**In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740).* The amendments in this Update related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendments allow investors to better assess, in their capital allocation decisions, how an entitys worldwide operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operational opportunities affect its income tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. The other amendments in this Update improve the effectiveness and comparability of disclosures by (1) adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General ApplicationGeneral Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and (2) removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, on a retrospective basis within its annual reporting for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 resulted in enhanced disclosures related to the effective tax-rate reconciliation, including additional disaggregation requirements prescribed by the standard. **Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted** - In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, *Income StatementReporting Comprehensive IncomeExpense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*(ASU 2024-03). The new guidance requires disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items on an annual and interim basis. This guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning the year ended December 31, 2027 and for interim periods thereafter. The new standard permits early adoption and can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We are evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. **3. Cash and Cash Equivalents** | Schedule of cash and cash equivalents | | | | | | | | | | | Year ended December 31 | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Cash and cash equivalents | | | | | | | | | | | Cash and money market funds | | $ | 11,553,600 | | | $ | 10,839,700 | | | | Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 11,553,600 | | | $ | 10,839,700 | | | The Company currently maintains, and may in the future maintain, assets at certain financial institutions in the U.S. in amounts that are, and in the future may be, in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit of $250,000. At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $11,303,600 and $10,589,700 in excess of the FDIC insured limit, respectively. In the event of a failure of any financial institutions where the Company maintains deposits or other assets, the Company may incur a loss to the extent such loss exceeds the FDIC insurance limitation, which could have a material adverse effect on liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. Interest income earned was $447,500 and $304,800 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. **4. Inventories** | Schedule of inventories | | | | | | | | | | | Year ended December 31 | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Inventories consist of the following: | | | | | | | | | Raw materials | | $ | 571,100 | | | $ | 428,000 | | | | Finished goods | | | | | | | 7,000 | | | | Inventory gross | | | 571,100 | | | | 435,000 | | | | Less: Allowance | | | (114,200 | ) | | | (85,400 | ) | | | Inventory | | $ | 456,900 | | | $ | 349,600 | | | **** **** | F-10 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024 | | **** **5. Concentration of Credit Risk** The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to cash and short-term investments with a financial institution. See Note 3 for a discussion on excess cash and cash equivalents. In addition, the Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to its accounts receivable due to the concentration of major customers. See Note 11 for a discussion of customer concentration. **6. Long-term Receivables** As of December 31, 2025, the Company had long-term receivables of $775,000 from three of the four licensees representing the present value of fixed guaranteed royalty payments that will be payable over varying periods of two through five years that commenced in the second half of 2022 and terminate in the second quarter of 2028. The fixed guaranteed royalty payments result from amendments to license agreements with three existing licensees and a license agreement with a new licensee. The receivable represents the present value of the fixed minimum annual payments due under the license agreements, discounted at the Companys incremental borrowing rate of 6.32% for two licensees that renewed in 2022, 8.14% for a licensee that renewed in January 2025 and 5.52% for a new licensee in June 2025. The four agreements grant licenses for the use of certain patented ink technology as it exists at the time that it is granted which is considered functional intellectual property. Under Topic 606, a performance obligation to transfer a license for functional intellectual property is satisfied at a point in time and the fixed consideration could be recognized upfront when the Company transfers control of the licensee if certain criteria are met. Specifically, the minimum royalty guarantee could be recognized upfront if the following conditions are met: | | | The royalty payment is fixed or determinable | | | | | Collection of the royalty payment is considered probable | | | | | The licensee has the ability to benefit from the licensed technology | | The Company determined that the above conditions were met upon execution of the four license agreements. The present value of the fixed guaranteed costs of obtaining the four license agreements (sales commissions) was recorded upon renewal of three existing license agreements and a new license agreement with a new licensee. The sales commissions are amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the pattern of revenue recognition for the underlying four license agreements. The unamortized balance as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, for accrued commission payable was $96,100 and $128,500, respectively, included on the balance sheet in accrued expenses and accrued expenses, non-current. The current portion of the four license agreements, in the amount of $599,400 and $545,700, is included in accounts receivable on the balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The following table summarizes the future minimum payments due under the three license agreements as of December 31, 2025: | Schedule of future minimum payments | | | | | | | Year Ending December 31: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2026 | | | $ | 634,000 | | | | | 2027 | | | $ | 567,500 | | | | | 2028 | | | $ | 270,000 | | | | | Total | | | $ | 1,471,500 | | | The Company has evaluated the collectability of the long-term receivables and believes them to be fully collectible as of December 31, 2025. However, there can be no assurance that the receivables will not be impaired in the future due to changes in the licensees financial condition or other factors. The long-term receivables are recorded at its present value as of December 31, 2025, and the receivable and imputed interest will be amortized over the term of the license agreements using the effective interest method. The book value approximates the fair value for long-tern receivables. The unamortized balance of the long-term receivables as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is $775,000 and $1,292,800, respectively. The unamortized imputed interest balance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $90,200 and $110,500, respectively, which will be recognized as interest income through June 30, 2028. Interest income derived from long-term receivables was $23,100 and $16,100 for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, included in the statements of comprehensive income (loss). **7. Stockholders Equity** The Company maintains the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the Plan), under which equity awards, including stock options, restricted stock, and other share-based awards, may be granted to employees, directors, and consultants. The maximum number of shares of the Companys common stock authorized for issuance under the Plan is 2,000,000 shares. As of December 31, 2025, an aggregate of 375,875 shares had been issued or were subject to outstanding awards under the Plan, and 1,624,125 shares remained available for future grants. **** | F-11 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024 | | **Prior Grant and Replacement Grant** In connection with an employment agreement, the Company granted (the Prior Grant) to an executive a one-time equity award of 1,000,000 restricted stock units (RSUs) of the Companys common stock valued at $3,580,000, fair value, which award was originally set to vest in its entirety on August 18, 2024. The fair market value of the Prior Grant was determined based on the closing price of the Companys common stock on the grant date and was expensed on a straight-line basis to general and administrative expense as stock-based compensation over the one-year vesting term. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for this issuance of $2,435,800 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Under the original terms of the award, to the extent the Company had not established an employee equity compensation plan on or prior to August 18, 2024, the RSUs could have been converted, at the election of the executive, in full or in part, into cash compensation at a rate of $3.58 per share, which was the fair market value of the common stock on October 10, 2023, the date the Board of Directors approved the grant. Because the award permitted cash settlement at the election of the executive, the award was initially classified as a liability award under ASC 718 and remeasured at each reporting period until modification. On August 16, 2024, the executive agreed to cancel and forfeit the Prior Grant and, in lieu of the Prior Grant, the Company granted the executive 1,649,769 RSUs (the Replacement Grant) pursuant to and subject to the Plan and an award agreement approved by the Board of Directors. The fair market value of the Replacement Grant was $3,580,000, determined based on the closing price of the Companys common stock on the grant date. The shares underlying the Replacement Grant vest ratably and quarterly over a two-year period beginning August 16, 2024. The cancellation and issuance of the Replacement Grant was accounted for as a modification under ASC 718. The incremental fair value of $1,410,000, representing the excess of the fair value of the Replacement Grant over the fair value of the Prior Grant immediately before modification, is recognized as additional compensation expense over the remaining vesting period. Upon modification, the award was reclassified from liability to equity classification. On November 16, 2024, 144,805 shares of vested stock were issued at a fair value of $330,800, net of taxes. On December 23, 2024, the executive agreed to forfeit 1,443,548 unvested RSUs under the Replacement Grant at a value of $3,308,800. The forfeiture was accounted for in accordance with ASC 718, resulting in reversal of previously recognized expense associated with unvested awards. **Advisory Shares Private Placement** On September 11, 2023, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement in connection with a private placement for total gross proceeds of $5.0 million. The agreement provided for the issuance of 1,250,000 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share. The sale closed on September 11, 2023. No placement fees or commissions were paid. In addition, as consideration for advisory services through September 11, 2026, the Company agreed to issue 65,790 shares of common stock with a total grant-date fair value of $263,160, which vest in three equal tranches on September 11, 2024, 2025, and 2026. The Company recognizes compensation expense for advisory share grants based on grant-date fair value and recognizes expense on a straight-line basis over the service period. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized consulting expense of $87,600 and $87,900, respectively, related to this stock grant. On September 11, 2024 and September 11, 2025, the Company issued 21,930 shares of common stock at a fair value of $87,700 upon the vesting of the first and second tranches. As of December 31, 2025, unrecognized compensation expense related to the advisory shares was approximately $61,000, which will be recognized over the remaining service period. **** | F-12 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2025 and 2024 | | **Director and Executive Grants** On December 22, 2024, the Company issued 60,000 shares of common stock to an outside director and 60,000 shares to an executive for services rendered. The shares were fully vested upon issuance and had an aggregate grant-date fair value of $200,400, which was recognized as stock-based compensation expense. On December 24, 2024, the Company granted 10,000 RSUs to an executive. Of these, 5,000 vested and were issued immediately at a value of $8,500. The remaining 5,000 vested on December 24, 2025 with 2,640 shares being issued at a value of $4,700, net of taxes. The grant-date fair value was $16,700. The immediately vested portion was recognized as compensation expense on the grant date, and the remaining portion was recognized over the one-year vesting period. On December 29, 2025, executives were granted 40,000 RSUs, of which 20,000 vested and 17,640 shares were issued immediately at a value of $26,500, net of taxes. The remaining 20,000 vest on December 29, 2026. The aggregate grant-date fair value was $60,000, of which $30,000 was recognized in 2025. The remaining amount will be recognized over the remaining vesting period. **Stock-Based Compensation Expense** For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $126,000 and $2,732,500, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested awards was approximately $90,800, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately one year. **8. Income Taxes** The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, on a retrospective basis within its annual reporting for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 resulted in enhanced disclosures related to the effective tax-rate reconciliation, including additional disaggregation requirements prescribed by the standard. For further details, see Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies. There was no income tax expense reflected in the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, because the Company carried forward net losses for tax purposes. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had federal net operating loss carry forwards of $804,000 and $707,000 respectively, and state net operating loss carryforwards of $3,176,000 and $2,568,000 which may be used to offset future taxable income. The remaining federal NOL's will not expire but will be limited to 80% of taxable income. The Pennsylvania NOL's started to expire in 2024, with $1,307,000 expiring by 2032. Remaining Pennsylvania NOL's expire in 20 years. Florida NOL's will not expire. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Deferred tax assets consist primarily of the tax effect of NOL carry-forwards. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets because of the uncertainty regarding its realizability. The tax effects of temporary differences which give rise to deferred tax assets (liabilities) are summarized as follows: | Schedule of deferred tax assets liabilities | | | | | | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Deferred tax assets/(liabilities) | | | | | | | | | | | Net operating loss carryforward | | $ | 412,600 | | | $ | 595,300 | | | | R&D Credits | | | 80,300 | | | | 41,300 | | | | Operating lease assets | | | 2,200 | | | | 800 | | | | Capitalize research & development costs | | | 53,600 | | | | 73,400 | | | | Depreciation & amortization | | | 2,300 | | | | 600 | | | | Total deferred tax assets | | | 551,000 | | | | 711,400 | | | | Valuation allowance | | | (551,000 | ) | | | (711,400 | ) | | | Net | | $ | | | | $ | | | | For the year ended December 31, 2025, the net decrease in valuation allowance was $160,400. | F-13 | | | NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Such limitation of the net operating losses may have occurred, but we have not analyzed it at this time as the deferred tax asset is fully reserved. The Companys policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income taxes in the statement of operations.The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties during 2025 related to unrecognized tax benefits. Tax years ending December 31, 2022 and thereafter remain open to examination for federal income tax purposes and by other major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. **9. Commitments and Contingencies** The Company conducts its operations in leased facilities under a non-cancelable operating lease expiring on December 31, 2027.

The second amendment provides for an extension term to December 31, 2027, and for monthly rent payments of, initially, $7,147, escalating annually by 3.5%. The Company has capitalized the present value of the minimum lease payments commencing June 1, 2025, using an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 6.5%. The minimum lease payments do not include common area annual expenses which are considered to be non-lease components. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the operating lease asset amounted to $161,300 and $32,400, respectively, and operating lease liability amounted to $168,900 and $35,200, respectively.
