We are an industrial automation equipment manufacturer in start-up stage currently focused on developing and designing robots, drones, Web3 infrastructure, IoT equipment and other related products. Our operations currently span across the globe. Our principal executive offices are located at 2-18-23, Nishiwaseda, Shinjuku-Ku, Tokyo, 162-0051, Japan. The Companys website is https://www.world-scan-project.com/. The Company has elected October 31th as its year end. **SkyFight-X Drone Business** SkyFight-X, which was originally developed and designed by our Chief Executive Officer, specifically for the hobbyist drone race known as SKY FIGHT, which is organized by Drone Net, a Japanese Company. Drone Net began running a drone school in 2017, and a drone race in 2019. Our CEO, Ryohei Uetaki, was in the planning stages of a new small sized drone product, and believed that his products would have higher performance capabilities than the drones at the time used by Drone Net, which prompted him to propose collaboration between the Company and Drone Net. Currently, Drone Net administrates 16 racetracks in Japan, specifically designed for drone use. Although SkyFight-X was designed for Sky Fight, the drones can also be used outside the facilities designed exclusively for drone racing, and they can be used for recreational and miscellaneous purposes. The following includes details regarding the SkyFight-X which we currently offer for sale. As mentioned later on, we have plans to expand our reach to more customers, but at this time it should be noted our only customer is Drone Net. **Schematics of SKYFight-X** - The weight of SKYFight-X is approximately 40 grams. * Product packaging - One Main body of machine - One Transmitter (2.4 GHz) - One Battery - Four Spare propellers - One USB charging cable - One user manual **Marketing** Our marketing plan, at present, is not yet complete and is still being researched and developed. SkyFight-X, our current primary product, is being marketed solely by our primary customer, Drone Net. We believe that Drone Nets sales of our products will result in increased demand, from Drone Net, for future products, but this is not directly related to any marketing activities conducted by the Company itself. We do not currently engage in any marketing efforts, with the exception of the companys website located at: https://www.world-scan-project.com/ **Flylly: Small sized drone with 4K camera** The Flylly is an extra small sized drone with 38 grams in weight, and not subject to the revised Aviation Act. K camera is installed for photo shooting, and angles can be adjusted manually by tilting the camera. Automatic flights are also programmable for simple flight plans. Flylly and a smartphone is what the users need for operation: download the dedicated app, SKY Drone Go, to the smartphone to connect and control Flylly via Wi-Fi Schematics of Flylly - The weight of Flylly is approximately 38 grams.

The purpose of the application is to provide 3D data such as historical heritage as VR video content. The main function of the application is image reproductions of VR images and 360 degree images, with VR images of World Heritages, historical heritages, and natural heritage both in Japan and overseas as its contents. Currently, all contents in the applications are free of charge, although this does not preclude us from monetizing META DIVER in the future. Pine Hill Productions, Inc., a New York corporation, (Pine Hill) is currently supervising the development of META DIVER. **ZEXABOX** ZEXABOX is made pursuant to, what we believe to be, strict Japanese guidelines for quality. The device is a GPU Mining Rig, comprised of computer components, used to mine digital currency. In laymans terms, mine is defined as the process of solving complex math problems that verifying transaction(s) in the digital currency or blockchain, which, generally speaking, results in a predetermined amount of digital currency to be gained. As of October 31, 2024 the company offers for sale the following types of Zexabox machines: PRO, MINI, ULTIMA, DIV, ULTIMA EX, PRO TYPE-C, DIV, and DIV. * **Current Operations Relating to Zexabox** Sales activities pursuant to ZEXABOX are outsourced to 3rd party marketing companies in Japan. All products are purchased from Web3 Computing Corp., formerly known as Cellessence Corp., an unrelated third party. Installation services for the products are conducted by Web3 Computing Corp. **Marketing** **** Sales and marketing activities pursuant to ZEXABOX are outsourced to 3rd party marketing companies in Japan. At present, companys marketing activities are constrained to our company website located at: https://www.world-scan-project.com/, through which recent news and updates are released, and general advertising to direct potential customers to our website. Additionally, from time to time the company attends industry specific exhibitions and trade shows. **Future plans** World Scan Project, Inc., as an industrial automation equipment manufacturer, plans to further develop and apply our technologies in designing/developing Web3 infrastructure, IoT equipment (Zexabox) and other related products, in addition to the robots and drones we have been offering to the market globally. (1) To begin direct sales to consumers in Japan The Company has tentative plans to evaluate the possibility of directly selling its products via web-based direct sales in Japan. It is possible that we may evaluate, and even begin to do so in 2025, but we do not currently have any definitive plans to do so at this point in time. | | (2) | To expand the sales volume for our digital currency mining rigs | | The Company is planning to gain sales agents and agencies to expand the sales of its new product named XEXABOX series. (3) To start selling products overseas, mainly in the USA The Company has intentions to begin developing its own sales agencies, and at such time to begin to sell products through such agencies, overseas beginning, potentially, in 2025. These plans remain speculative in nature, however, in order to begin to progress these efforts, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pine Hill Productions, Inc., a New York corporation (Pine Hill) on March 3, 2020. Pine Hill shall support the Company to expand its business operations into the USA. The consulting fee due to Pine Hill is $3,000 per month. As of October 31, 2024, there has been no material progress to disclose as pertains to this agreement. (4) To sell new products The Company intends to sell core products other than drones and digital currency mining rigs. (5) The Company also has tentative plans, to evaluate the possibility of working on developing an underwater drone and a hover bike (flying bike). At this time, we are developing a magnetic exploration system, and the hover bike has been successfully tested in flight. The magnetic exploration system is called JIKAI, and the hovercraft bike is called FREAP. At present neither of these potential products are available for sale as testing remains ongoing. However, we are still exploring the feasibility of these endeavors, and there is no guarantee that such plans will come to fruition. **Government Regulations in Japan** Currently, given that the entirety of our operations are conducted within Japan, and our customers reside in Japan, only the rules and regulations pertaining to drones within Japan are presently applicable to the Companys operations. Based on the revised Civil Aeronautics Act of 2020, registration of Unmanned Aircraft has been mandated. Based on the amendment to the Civil Aeronautics Act in 2020, unregistered Unmanned Aircraft flights will be banned. From June 20, 2022, Unmanned Aircraft will have to be marked with a registration ID to identify them and be fitted with a Remote ID function. The exclusion for Unmanned Aircraft was changed from those weighing less than 200g to those weighing less than 100g. This means that all Unmanned Aircraft of 100g or more are subject to registration. Acceptance of pre-registration began on December 20, 2021 and mandatory registration of all unmanned aircrafts began on June 20, 2022. The registration system for Unmanned Aircraft has been established to ensure safety and security in the expanded use of Unmanned Aircraft. While this regulation does not directly impact our ability to conduct any of our operations, it has placed the burden of registering autonomous drones onto the consumer, which we believe has had, and will continue to have, a detrimental impact upon our sales. **PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS** The following table is the list of patent registered.. | Application Number | Name | Applicant | Application Date | Country | Record Date | | | 2021-501939 | Unmanned flight equipment, management equipment, operating equipment, and flight management methods | World Scan Project Corporation | 2020/02/14 | Japan | 2022/07/22 | | | 2021-145931 | Supporting equipment | World Scan Project Corporation | 2021/09/08 | Japan | 2023/10/10 | | **Employees** As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company, and its subsidiary, collectively have a total of 14 full-time employees.

Market for Registrants Common Equity, Related Shareholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.** **Market Information** Our common stock was quoted on the over-the-counter market (the OTC Markets) in the Pink Open Market (the Pink Market) under the symbol WDSP. Prior to the filing of this report, due to our delinquent SEC Reporting status, we were demoted by OTC Markets to the "Expert Market" tier. After the filing of Form 10-K for the period ending October 31, 2023, our Form 10-Q for the quarter ending January 31, 2024, our Form 10-Q for the quarter ending April 30, 2024 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ending July 31, 2024, we were current with our SEC Reporting obligations, and our common stock was resumed for quotation in the Pink Market on the OTC Markets. **Holders** As of our fiscal year end, there are approximately 90 shareholders of record of our common stock and 11,560,350 shares of common stock deemed issued and outstanding. Also, as of the date of this report, there are approximately 116 shareholders of record of our common stock and 11,997,350 shares of common stock deemed issued and outstanding.

Selected Financial Data.** Not applicable because the Company is a smaller reporting company. **Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.** **Liquidity and Capital Resources** As of October 31, 2024 we had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $1,634,200. Currently, our cash balance is sufficient to fund our operations without the need for additional funding. The decrease in cash from operations is mainly related to decreased revenue and increased inventory purchases in the year ended October 31, 2024. **Revenues** We recorded revenues of $25,208,229 for the year ended October 31, 2024. We recorded revenues of $30,986,882 for the year ended October 31, 2023. This decrease in revenues was due mainly to a decrease in the sales of crypto miners. During the year ended October 31, 2024, contracts with crypto miner customers changed to the extent that management changed the Companys reporting from sales by agent, net of cost of goods sold, to that of gross sales with related cost of goods sold (see Note 8). **Net Income(Loss)** **** We recorded a net loss of $768,431 for the year ended October 31, 2024. We recorded a net loss of $3,416,587 for the year ended October 31, 2023. **Cash flow** For the year ended October 31, 2024, we had negative cash flows used in operations in the amount of $16,864,420 as compared to negative cash flow used in operations of $170,461 for the year ended October 31, 2023. The decrease in operating cash flow is attributed to decreased crypto miners revenue and increased inventory purchases during this period (see Note 8). For the year ended October 31, 2024, we had negative cash flows from investing activities in the amount of $126,427, due mainly to the purchase of software, as compared to cash flow used in investing activities of $1,627,413 for the year ended October 31, 2023. For the year ended October 31, 2024, we had cash flows provided by financing activities in the amount of $13,720,084, due to the sale of common shares and the receipt of funds pending the allotment of shares (see Note 13), as compared to cash flow provided by financing activities of $1,862,361 for the year ended October 31, 2023. **Item 7A.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended October 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. **Basis for Opinion** These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our 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 consolidated 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 our audits, 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. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. **Critical Audit Matters** The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relates. - Revenue Recognition As discussed in Note 2 and 9 of the financial statements, the Company enters into transactions for the sale of mining machines under agreements with vendor. Under the Basic Agreement, the vendor procures the mining machines, stores them, and in some cases manages them on behalf of the Company or the Companys customers. The Company determined it acts as the principal in these transactions and recognizes revenue on a gross basis, rather than as an agent on a net basis, under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. We identified the evaluation of the Companys role in these transactions as a principal or agent as a critical audit matter because it involved significant management judgment in assessing the indicators in ASC 606-10-55-36 through 55-40, including whether the Company controls the goods before transfer to customers, is responsible for fulfilling the contract, and has inventory risk. Auditing this assessment required a high degree of auditor judgment, including reading the Basic Agreement, evaluating the flow of goods and title transfer terms, and assessing the relevance of storage and management arrangements between vendor and the Companys customers. Revenue for the sale of such products was recognized when the products were delivered to the customers and the customers completed the inspection of the same. Addressing this matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence as part of forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included (i) reviewing and analyzing the relevant contractual terms with the third-party manufacturer; (ii) evaluating the Companys assessment of the transfer of inventory risk and rewards; and (iii) inquiries and discussions with Management in relation to Companys responsibility against the contract. We also evaluated the appropriateness of the gross revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606. **** - Research and Development Expense As discussed in Notes 2 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company engages in research and development activities for various technologies, primarily through subcontracting to third-party vendors. For the year ended October 31, 2024, the Company incurred research and development expenditures totaling approximately $0.77 million, mainly relating to three significant projectsHover Bike, SUNVA, and Jikai. Management concluded that these activities fall within the scope of ASC 730, Research and Development, and determined that all costs incurred in the period should be expensed as incurred because the projects were in the research or preproduction prototype stage as of year-end and had not yet reached the point at which capitalization would be appropriate under U.S. GAAP. We identified the evaluation of the appropriate recognition and accounting treatment of research and development expenditures as a critical audit matter because it involves significant management judgment in assessing the stage of completion of projects, the establishment of technical feasibility, and whether costs meet the criteria for capitalization. The assessment also requires management to consider whether expenditures relate to research and development activities as defined in ASC 730 or to other activities that may require different accounting treatment. Auditing this matter involved a high degree of judgment due to the estimation uncertainty and the need to evaluate evidence such as project milestones, prototypes, and contractual terms. Our audit procedures included, among others, obtaining and reading agreements with third-party vendors, evaluating the nature of the work performed and the stage of completion for significant projects, and reviewing managements assessment of technical feasibility and alternative future use. We inquired of management and key project personnel regarding project status and future commercialization plans,. We also assessed the appropriateness of the application of ASC 730 to the expenditures and considered whether any portion should have been capitalized under applicable U.S. GAAP guidance. - Impairment of Software As discussed in Notes 6 and 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company capitalized certain internally developed software costs related to NFT applications (NFT Apps) in accordance with ASC 985, Software Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed*. At October 31, 2024, the carrying value of these software assets was JPY 189.6 million (USD 1.23 million). Management performed an impairment assessment under ASC 985-20-35 and determined that the carrying amount of certain projects exceeded their net realizable value, resulting in a write-down of JPY 176.4 million. We identified the evaluation of software impairment as a critical audit matter because it involved significant management judgment in estimating future net realizable value, including assumptions about sales prices, units sold, gross margin, commercialization timing, and the likelihood of achieving projected revenues. The assessment also required judgment in determining whether indicators of impairment existed and in evaluating the impact of changes in the Companys mid-term business plan. Auditing these estimates involved a high degree of subjectivity and the use of significant audit effort. Our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating managements process for identifying indicators of impairment; testing the reasonableness of key assumptions used in the net realizable value analysis, including sales forecasts, pricing, and cost estimates; comparing historical forecasts to actual results; and assessing the consistency of the assumptions with other internal documents such as the mid-term business plan and marketing plans. We also evaluated the mathematical accuracy of the impairment calculations and the appropriateness of the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. - Investments in Securities As discussed in Notes 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company holds an equity investment in a Company A, recorded at JPY 240 million (USD 1.6 million) as of October 31, 2024. The investment is classified as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value and is measured at cost, less impairment, in accordance with ASC 321. Management performed qualitative impairment assessments to evaluate whether indicators of impairment existed as of year-end. These assessments included evaluating Companys financial condition and business prospects, industry and market conditions, regulatory and technological developments, and other qualitative indicators. In addition, management performed a simplified valuation analysis using a discounted cash flow method to support that the estimated fair value of its investment exceeded carrying value. Based on these assessments, management concluded that no impairment was necessary as of October 31, 2024. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures related to impairment of investments constitutes a critical audit matter included (i) the significant judgment exercised by management in identifying and evaluating qualitative impairment indicators and developing assumptions used in the valuation analysis, and (ii) the high degree of auditor judgment required in evaluating the reasonableness of those assumptions, particularly given the early-stage nature of companys operations and limited operating history. Addressing this matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence as part of forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others: (i) obtaining an understanding of managements process for performing the impairment assessment; (ii) evaluating companys financial performance, cash flow forecasts, and business plans, including comparison against actual results; (iii) assessing relevant external factors such as market, regulatory, and technological conditions; (iv) testing the appropriateness of key assumptions used by management in its discounted cash flow analysis, including revenue growth, operating margins, and discount rate, with the involvement of valuation specialists; and (v) performing sensitivity analyses to evaluate the impact of changes in key assumptions on the estimated fair value of the investment. We determined that there are no other critical audit matters. ***** **/s/ BCRG Group** BCRG Group (PCAOB ID 7158) We have served as the Companys auditor since 2025. Irvine, CA September 2, 2025 -F2- Table of Contents **** **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm** **** **** **To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of World Scan Project, Inc.** **** **Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements** **** We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of World Scan Project, Inc. and its subsidiary (the Company) as of October 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at October 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. **** **Basis for Opinion** **** These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our 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 consolidated 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 our 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. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. **** **Critical Audit Matter** The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relates. **Research and Development Expense** As discussed in Notes 2 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company records expenses for research and development activities based on Managements estimates of services received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with vendors that conduct research and development on the Companys behalf. The financial terms vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows as compared with services performed or products delivered. As a result, the Company is required to estimate research and development expenses incurred during the period, which impacts the amount of Advance payments and prepaid expenses balances related to such costs as of each balance sheet date. Management estimates the amount of work completed through discussions with internal personnel and the contract research and contract manufacturing entity as to the progress or stage of completion of the services. The Companys estimates are based on a number of factors, including the Companys knowledge of the status of each of the research and development project milestones. Management makes significant judgments and estimates in determining the accrued balance at the end of each reporting period. The Company incurred Research and Development expenditure totaling $18,717,456 in respect of various technologies mainly for two products Company intends to offer for sale in the future during the year ended October 31, 2023. All the technologies were in progress as on October 31, 2023, and all the expenditure incurred till year end was expensed in accordance with ASC 985 Software Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed and ASC 730 Research and Development Costs. Subsequent to year ended October 31, 2023, the Company has made a capitalization in accordance with ASC 985 Software Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed. Such capitalization has been made by the Company considering the fact that the Net realizable value/Future Economic Benefits exceeds unamortized cost. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures related to management's assessment of recognizing Research and Development expenditures constitutes a critical audit matter include: (i) the significant judgment exercised by management in determining the recognition and accounting treatment of such costs; (ii) the higher degree of auditor judgment required in evaluating the results of audit procedures, due to the subjectivity and estimation uncertainty involved; and (iii) the involvement of professionals with specialized skills and expertise in assessing the appropriateness of the related estimates. Addressing this matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence as part of forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included: (i) inquiring with Company personnel responsible for overseeing the research and development activities to understand the progress of these activities, including project milestones and contract terms; (ii) discussing management's underlying assumptions regarding future economic benefits and treatment of such Research and Development cost; and (iii) Analyzing the terms of contracts between the Company and its contract research and manufacturing organizations, reviewing correspondence between the Company and these organizations regarding project completion status. We used this information to develop an independent estimate of the Advance payments and prepaid expenses and compared it to the amounts recorded by the Company. **Revenue Recognition** As discussed in Note 2 and 9 of the financial statements, the Company acted as an agent in facilitating the sales of crypto miners, produced by a third-party manufacturer, to customers of the Company during the year ended October 31, 2023. Net revenue for the sale of such products was recognized when the products were delivered to the customers and the customers completed the inspection of the same. Management assessed the Companys contracts with the third-party manufacturer and customers in consideration of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and determined the Company as the agent in said transactions. We identified the recognition of revenue as a critical audit matter. Higher degree of auditor judgement is required in relation to Managements assessment for revenue recognition and transfer of significant risk rewards associated with the sale of crypto miners. Addressing this matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence as part of forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included (i) reviewing and analyzing the relevant contractual terms with the third-party manufacturer; (ii) evaluating the Companys assessment of the transfer of inventory risk and rewards; and (iii) inquiries and discussions with Management in relation to Companys responsibility to act as an agent. **** **** **** **/s/ Mercurius & Associates LLP** (Formerly known as AJSH & Co LLP) * We have served as the Companys auditor from 2024 to 2025.

ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS** World Scan Project, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 25, 2019. On October 25, 2019, Ryohei Uetaki, our officer and director, paid for expenses involved with the incorporation of the Company with personal funds on behalf of the Company, in exchange for 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share and 10,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which issuance was exempt from the registration provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of such same said act. The value of the stock provided to Mr. Uetaki, based on the par value of $.0001 per share of common stock and Series A Preferred Stock, is valued at $2,000. On October 25, 2019, Ryohei Uetaki was appointed as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Director, Secretary, and Treasurer. On January 25, 2020, the Company entered into and consummated a Share Contribution Agreement with Ryohei Uetaki. Pursuant to this agreement Mr. Uetaki gifted to the Company, at no cost, 300 shares of common stock of World Scan Project Corporation, a Japan corporation (WSP Japan), which represented all of its issued and outstanding shares. The Company has since gained a 100% interest in the issued and outstanding shares of WSP Japans common stock and WSP Japan is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company and WSP Japan were under common control at the time of the acquisition. WSP Japan was incorporated under the laws of Japan on January 22, 2020. Currently, WSP Japan is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. The Companys primary business is focused on developing and manufacturing of autonomous aerial vehicles including drones. On February 19, 2020, Ryohei Uetaki gifted 7,000,000 shares of our Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which represented all of our issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the time, to SKYPR LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company (referred to herein as SKYPR LLC). Our CEO Ryohei Uetaki owns and controls 100% of the membership interests in SKYPR LLC. In September, 2020, the Company entered into subscription agreements with 41 shareholders. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company issued 647,350 shares of common stock in total to these shareholders and received $323,675 as aggregate consideration. At the time of purchase the price paid per share by each shareholder was the equivalent of about 0.50 USD. These shares were sold pursuant to the Companys effective S-1 Registration Statement deemed effective on August 28, 2020 at 4pm EST. In June and August of 2023, the Company entered into subscription agreements with 10 shareholders. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company issued 170,000 shares of Common Stock in total to these shareholders and received $1,740,000 as aggregate consideration. At the time of purchase the price paid per share by each shareholder was approximately 10.00 USD. These shares were sold pursuant to the Companys effective S-1 Registration Statement deemed effective on May 25, 2023 at 4pm EST. This offering has been completed and is no longer ongoing. On August 13, 2024, we filed a Form 8-K with the SEC to announce that Mr. Ryohei Uetaki had chosen to extend the offering period of the S-1 Registration Statement, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission at 4:00 PM EST on August 23, 2023 by an additional 90 calendar days. As a result, the offering period was extended to and ended on November 21, 2024. We operate through our wholly owned subsidiary, World Scan Project Corporation, a Japanese Company. We are a start-up stage company currently focused on developing, designing and selling small sized drones which may be used for a variety of purposes. Our principal executive offices are located at 2-18-23, Nishiwaseda, Shinjuku-Ku, Tokyo, 169-0051, Japan. The Company has elected October 31stas its year end. **NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** **Principles of Consolidations** The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, World Scan Project Corporation, whose registered address is 2-18-23, Nishiwaseda, Shinjuku-Ku, Tokyo, 162-0051, Japan. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. **** **Basis of Presentation** This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Companys financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. **Reclassification** Certain amounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. **Use of Estimates** The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Advertising and Promotion** All advertising, promotion and marketing expenses, including commissions, are expensed when incurred. **Leases** The Company capitalizes all leased assets pursuant to ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liability, initially measured at present value of the lease payments, on its balance sheet for leases with terms longer than 12 months and classified as either financing or operating leases. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less from Topic 842 as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. **Related party transaction** A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Companys securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Companys management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company conducts business with its related parties in the ordinary course of business. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arms-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arms-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated. **Cash and Cash Equivalents** The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of six months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. **Accounts Receivable and Credit Policies** Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. If there is a claim for a defect of product within four days after arrival of goods, the Company shall accept a goods return. **** **Customer Advance Payments and Prepaid Expenses** Advance payments and prepaid expenses are cash paid amounts that represent costs incurred from which a service or benefit is expected to be derived in the future. **Inventories** Inventories, consisting of products available for sale, are primarily accounted for using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, and are valued at the lower of cost or market value. This valuation requires the Company to make judgments, based on currently available information, about the likely method of disposition, such as through sales to individual customers, returns to product vendors, or liquidations, and expected recoverable values of each disposition category. **Fixed assets and depreciation** **** Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation and impairment loss. The initial cost of the assets comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the respective assets as follows: computer software developed or acquired for internal use, 5 years; leasehold improvements, 10 years; and tools, furniture and fixtures, 2 to 15 years. **Investment and Securities** In accordance with ASC 321-10-35-2, the Company elected to measure an equity security without a readily determinable fair value at its cost subject to impairment. The Company has not identified any observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. -F8- [Table of Contents](#table) **Foreign currency translation** The Company maintains its books and records in its local currency, Japanese YEN (JPY), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which its operation is conducted. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations. The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollars (US$) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, Translation of Financial Statement, assets and liabilities of the Company whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average quarterly rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of shareholders equity. **Comprehensive income or loss** ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income or loss as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of shareholders equity consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. **Revenue recognition** The Company adopted ASC 606 Revenue from contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. Revenue amount represents the invoiced value, net of a value-added tax (Consumption Tax) and applicable local government levies. The Consumption Tax on sales is calculated at 10% of gross sales. The Company is subject to consumption taxes in Japan for the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023. *Revenue from product sales* Revenue for products is recognized when the products are delivered to the customer and the customer completes the product inspection. Cash receipts for undelivered products are recorded as advance received. As of October 31, 2024, the Company had no advance received related to this stream. As of October 31, 2024, the Company had advances received related to the sale of crypto miners totaling $3,391,942. *Revenue from crypto miners sales, net* ** During the period ended October 31, 2023, the Company acted as an agent in facilitating the sales of crypto miners, produced by a third-party manufacturer, to customers of the Company. Revenue for the sale of crypto miners was recognized when the miners were delivered to the customers and the customers completed the inspection of the miners. Management assessed the Companys contracts with the third-party manufacturer and customers in consideration of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and determined the Company as the agent in said transactions. **Research and Development** The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with ASC subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (ASC 730-10). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved as defined under the applicable agreement. The Company also applies the principles of ASC 985-20, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed (ASC 985-20). ASC 985-20 requires that software development costs incurred in conjunction with product development be charged to research and development expense until technological feasibility is established. The Company records expenses for research and development activities based on Managements estimates of services received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with vendors that conduct research and development on the Companys behalf. The financial terms vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows as compared with services performed or products delivered. As a result, the Company is required to estimate research and development expenses incurred during the period, which impacts the amount of Advance payments and prepaid expenses balances related to such costs as of each balance sheet date. Management estimates the amount of work completed through discussions with internal personnel and the contract research and contract manufacturing entity as to the progress or stage of completion of the services. The Companys estimates are based on a number of factors, including the Companys knowledge of the status of each of the research and development project milestones. **Income Taxes** The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. The Company recognized deferred tax assets of $436,572 and $27,841 as of October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, respectively. **** **Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share** The Company computes basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260,*Earnings per Share*. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. Each shareholder of Series A Preferred Stock may convert their shares at the option of the holder thereof into an equal amount of shares of any other class or series of the Companys stock on a one to one basis, therefore the Company computes diluted earnings (loss) per shares by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of the total of weighted average number of common shares and total preferred shares outstanding. Basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows: | | | October 31, | | | | | | | | | | | | 2024 | | 2023 | | | | Basic earnings per share | | $ | (0.07) | | $ | (0.32) | | | | Diluted earnings per share | | $ | (0.04) | | $ | (0.17) | | | **Fair Value of Financial Instruments** The Companys balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. ASC 820,*Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures*, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1)market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2)an entitys own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which 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 are described below: - Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. - Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. - Level 3 Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. **** **Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements** **** The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. **** **Concentration of Purchases** Net purchase from suppliers accounting for 10% or more of total purchases are as follows: For the year ended October 31, 2024, 45.85% of the inventories were purchased from CU Holdings Co., Ltd, a trading company for Web3 Computing Corp, in the amount of $8,067,098, 13.25% of the inventories were purchased from Musashi, Inc., a trading company for Web3 Computing Corp, in the amount of $2,331,489, and 12.88% of the inventories were purchased from Web3 Computing Corp in the amount of $2,266,128.

However, the Company also recorded an impairment expense related to the software asset after an evaluation determined the asset value should be reduced by the amount of the professional fees incurred in the development of the software (see Note 10). **NOTE 12 - INCOME TAXES** For the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had income tax expense(credit) in the amount of $2,495 and ($2,092,461), respectively.The income tax credit for year ended October 31, 2023 was due to the adjustment to income taxes payable resulting from the net loss before taxes for the year ended October 31, 2023 of $3,416,587. During the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company paid income taxes totaling $78,243 and $1,013,417, respectively. United States The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 25, 2019. The U.S. federal income tax rate is 21%. Japan The Company conducts its major businesses in Japan through WSP Japan and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the local tax authority. The Company is subject to a number of income taxes, which, in aggregate, represent a statutory tax rate approximately as follows: | | Companys assessable profit | | | | For the year ended October 31, | Up to JPY 4 million | | Up to JPY 8 million | | Over JPY 8 million | | | 2024 | 23.15% | | 25.73% | | 38.07% | | As of October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, the Company had income tax payable of $334,413 and $117, respectively. As of October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, the Company had deferred tax assets of $31,517 and $27,841, respectively. For the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, the Companys income tax expenses (credit) are as follows: | | | For the Years Ended | | | | | | October 31, | | | | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | Current | | $ | 420,386 | | | $ | (2,352,130) | | | | Deferred | | | 4,515 | | | | 259,669 | | | | Total | | $ | 415,871 | | | $ | (2,092,461) | | | A reconciliation of the effective income tax rates reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations to the Japanese statutory tax rate for the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023 is as follows: | | | For the Years Ended | | | | | | October 31, | | | | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | Japanese statutory tax rate | | | 34.59 | % | | | 34.59 | % | | | Change in valuation allowance | | | - | | | | (0.19) | | | | Tax credit | | | - | | | | (9.00) | | | | Effective tax rate | | | 34.59 | % | | | 25.40 | % | | The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to the deferred tax assets at October 31, 2023 and 2022 are presented below: | | | October 31, | | | October 31, | | | | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | Deferred tax assets | | | | | | | | | | | Business tax payable | | $ | 30,530 | | | $ | - | | | | Loss carry forward | | | 97,797 | | | | 26,255 | | | | Other | | | 987 | | | | 89,684 | | | | Subtotal | | | 129,314 | | | | 115,939 | | | | Less valuation allowance | | | (97,797 | ) | | | (88,098 | ) | | | Total deferred tax assets | | $ | 31,517 | | | $ | 27,841 | | | The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in future periods. The Company regularly assesses the ability to realize its deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance if it is more-likely-than-not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company weighs all available positive and negative evidence, including its earnings history and results of recent operations, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced or increased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight may be given to subjective evidence such as the Companys projections for growth. The adjustments of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets may cause greater volatility in the effective tax rate in the periods in which the valuation allowance is adjusted. For the year ended October 31, 2023, certain valuation allowance was released for WSP Japan considering the collectability of deferred tax assets. As of October 31, 2023, WSP Japan had net operating losses which can be carried forward for income tax purposes of $75,904 to reduce future taxable income. If not used, these carryforwards will expire in 2033. **NOTE 13 - SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY** **Preferred Stock** The authorized preferred stock of the Company consists of 200,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.0001.

The new guidance also requires additional disclosures as detailed below. We adopted this standard on the effective date of November 1, 2020 and used this effective date as the date of initial application. Under this application method, we were not required to restate prior period financial information or provide Topic 842 disclosures for prior periods. We elected the package of practical expedients, which permitted us to not reassess our prior conclusions related to lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs, and we did not elect the use of hindsight. We determine if a contract is a lease at the inception of the arrangement. We review all options to extend, terminate, or purchase the ROUassets, and when reasonably certain to exercise, we include the option in the determination of the lease term and lease liability. We have six operating leases related to our office space in Tokyo with remaining lease terms of 1 to over 3 years. We recognized $266,951 and $293,406 inoperating lease costs for the years ended October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, respectively. Lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date of the lease, based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes any lease incentives. When readily determinable, we use the implicit rate in determining the present value of lease payments. When leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date, including the lease term. The tables below presentfinancial information associated with our leases. As noted above, we adopted Topic 842 using a transition method that does not require application to periods prior to adoption. | | Balance Sheet Classification | October 31, 2024 | October 31, 2023 | | | | | | | | | | | Right-of-use assets | Lease asset long | $ | 677,022 | $ | 788,150 | | | Current lease liabilities | Short-term lease liability | | 233,160 | | 186,351 | | | Non-current lease liabilities | Lease liability long term | | 466,643 | | 626,242 | | | | | | | | | | | Maturities of lease liabilities as of October 31, 2024 are as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | 2025 | 241,145 | | | | | | | 2026 | 94,894 | | | | | | | 2027 | 78,105 | | | | | | | 2028 and beyond | 312,419 | | | | | | | Total | 726,563 | | | | | | | Add(Less): Imputed interest | (26,760) | | | | | | | Present value of lease liabilities | 699,803 | | | | | | **NOTE 15 - ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER PAYABLES** Accrued expenses and other payablesare comprised of trade accounts payable, accrued payroll tax liabilities and accrued expenses.

(or the Company) approved the dismissal of Mercurius & Associates LLP (Mercurius) as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, to be effective on May 21, 2025. On May 21, 2025, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of BCRG Group (PCAOB ID: 7158) as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm for the audit of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, and any reviews of interim periods thereafter. -F10- [Table of Contents](#table) **** **Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.** On May 19, 2025, the Board of Directors of World Scan Project, Inc. (or the Company) approved the dismissal of Mercurius & Associates LLP (Mercurius) as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, to be effective on May 21, 2025. The report of Mercuriuson the Companys consolidated financial statements for fiscal years ended October 31, 2023 and 2024 included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that such report expressed substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. There were no (1) disagreements between the Company and Mercurius regarding accounting principles, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, nor (2) reportable events as outlined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. On May 21, 2025, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of BCRG Group (PCAOB ID: 7158) as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm for the audit of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, and any reviews of interim periods thereafter. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, as well as the prior fiscal years, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf, consulted with BCRG Group regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BCRG Group concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K). **Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.** **Disclosure Controls and Procedures** The Company has adopted and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this annual report, is collected, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the SEC. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, the Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Office who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective. Our Chief Executive Officer, Ryohei Uetaki, has reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by the report October 31, 2023 and has concluded that (i) the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission, and (ii) the Companys controls and procedures have not been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. **Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting** The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Companys management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Management conducted an assessment of the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued in 2013. Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of October 31, 2024, the Companys internal control over financial reporting is ineffective based on those criteria. The Companys management, including its Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control processes will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of error or fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that the breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our Chief Executive Officer considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of Treadway Commission were: domination of management by a single individual without adequate compensating controls, lack of a majority of outside directors on board of directors, inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, lack of well-established procedures to identify, approve and report related party transactions, and lack of an audit committee. Management believes that the material weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and inadequate segregation of duties results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods. Management recognizes that its controls and procedures would be substantially improved if we had an audit committee and two individuals serving as officers and as such is actively seeking to remediate this issue. **Managements Remediation Initiatives** In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures: We have increased our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise to remediate material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. We plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us. Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board. We will work as quickly as possible to implement these initiatives; however, the lack of adequate working capital and positive cash flow from operations will likely slow this implementation. **Changes in Internal Control** There have been no changes in internal controls over the financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal fourth quarter, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only managements report in this annual report. **Item 9B. Other Information.** None. -6- [Table of Contents](#table) **PART III** **Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.** Biographical information regarding the Officers and Directors of the Company, who will continue to serve as Officers and Directors of the Company are provided below: **World Scan Project, Inc.** | NAME | AGE | POSITION | | | Ryohei Uetaki | 51 | Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director | | | Yasumasa Ichikawa | 32 | Chief Technology Officer | | **World Scan Project Corporation** | NAME | AGE | POSITION | | | Ryohei Uetaki | 51 | Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director | | | Yasumasa Ichikawa | 32 | Chief Technology Officer | | **Ryohei Uetaki** **** Mr. Ryohei Uetaki graduated from the Osaka Gakuin University Faculty of Commerce in 1997. In 2000, he incorporated Zero Step Ltd and assumed the position of president. In 2006, Zero Step Ltd ceased all operations. In 2006, Mr. Uetaki joined EAZ Holdings Ltd as a director in charge of the companys marketing efforts. Mr. Uetaki remained as director of EAZ until 2007. From 2007 to 2019, he was engaged as an independent business consultant. From 2017 to 2018, he served as an associated professor of Keio University Graduate School.

Currently, he serves as the officer and director of World Scan Project, Inc., World Scan project Corporation, SKYPR LLC, and Kids Cell Technologies Corporation. Due to Mr. Uetakis diverse business experience, the Board has determined it is in the best interest of the company to appoint him as the companys Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Treasurer and Director. **Yasumasa Ichikawa** Mr. Yasumasa Ichikawa graduated from Kyoto Saga University of Arts in 2015. After graduation, he was engaged as an independent computer graphic designer. On November 18, 2019, he was appointed as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of World Scan Project, Inc.

Due to Mr. Ichikawas technological experience, the Board has determined it is in the best interest of the company to appoint him as the companys Chief Technology Officer. **Ethics** The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company's employees, officers and directors as the Company is not required to do so. In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company's board of director(s) (the "Board of Directors" or "Board"), is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company's financial statements and other services provided by the Company's independent public accountants. The Board of directors, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company review the Company's internal accounting controls, practices and policies. **Committees of the Board** Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our sole director believes that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the director(s) can adequately perform the functions of such committees. **Audit Committee Financial Expert** Our director has determined that we do not have a board member that qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(D)(5) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a Board member that qualifies as independent as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined by Rule 4200(a)(14) of the FINRA Rules. We believe that our director(s) are capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The director(s) of our Company does not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee because management believes that the Board of directors can adequately perform the functions of an audit committee. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the stage of our development and the fact that we have not generated any positive cash flows from operations to date. **Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings** Our officers and sole director have not been involved in or a party in any of the following events or actions during the past ten years: | 1. | any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; | | | 2. | any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); | | | 3. | being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or | | | 4. | being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated. | | | 5. | Such person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission to have violated any Federal or State securities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated; | | | 6. | Such person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated any Federal commodities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated; | | | 7. | Such person was the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of:(i) Any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; or(ii) Any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or(iii) Any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or | | | 8. | Such person was the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member. | | **Independence of Directors** We are not required to have independent members of our Board of Directors, and do not anticipate having independent Directors until such time as we are required to do so. **Code of Ethics** We have not adopted a formal Code of Ethics. The Board of Director(s) evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees and determined that since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and state criminal, business conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or Directors expand in the future, we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics. **Shareholder Proposals** Our Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for Directors. The Board of Director(s) believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Director(s) will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
