BUSINESS** **General Overview** Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. (Sparta, we, us, or the Company) is a Nevada corporation with headquarters in New York, New York, and a corporate website at www.spartacommercial.com, with subsidiary addresses in Stamford, CT. We operate as a multi-disciplined parent corporation across four primary business sectors: FinTech Services, Financial Services, E-Commerce & Mobile Technology, and Health and Wellness. Our operations are conducted through wholly owned subsidiaries and joint ventures that provide specialized financing products, technology-driven solutions, and consumer wellness offerings. Spartas origins are in the Powersports consumer finance industry, historically providing retail installment loans and leases through authorized motorcycle dealerships in 33 states, supported by financing lines of credit from institutional lenders. We built and maintained a full underwriting and servicing platform for our portfolio until discontinuing our consumer loans and leases business after the 2008 financial crisis. **I. FINTECH SERVICES** **Agoge Global USA, Inc. Cross-Border Trade Finance and Blockchain Solutions** Formed in December 2022 as a subsidiary of Sparta Crypto, Inc., Agoge Global USA, Inc. (Agoge) was established to address inefficiencies in cross-border trade between the United States and Brazil. Agoge entered into a joint venture with WeDev Group Ltda., a Brazilian technology and blockchain development firm, to create and operate a comprehensive digital platform for international trade finance. The joint venture developed EZBroker360, a blockchain-enabled platform utilizing stablecoins and distributed ledger technology to: - Reduce transaction times from days to hours; - Lower cross-border payment costs; and - Improve security, transparency, and auditability. In addition to payment processing, EZBroker360 provides: - Staged financing for freightage, customs duties, and taxes; - Assistance with Brazilian tax and regulatory compliance; - Import/export documentation preparation; - Industry introductions and market entry facilitation; and - Reselling and distribution support in other jurisdictions. Agoge focuses on financing gaps in trade transactions that are not traditionally served by conventional banks. Since inception, the Companys loan deployment has reached $2 million, supported by repeat client engagement and organic referrals. Clients, such as Patta Brazil, have reported enhanced cash flow flexibility, increased import volumes, avoidance of demurrage fees, and operational scaling. Patta Brazils CEO has credited Agoges financing solutions for supporting a projected 50% revenue increase and enabling additional hiring. | Page 3 of 62 | | Building on its technology foundation, the joint venture has developed iGoCards, a virtual card and expense management platform for globally oriented businesses. iGoCards will enable fund loading via USD or stablecoins, incorporate multi-user controls, and offer advanced expense management features. A planned Receive capability will allow clients to manage both payables and receivables, positioning Agoge as a comprehensive financial ecosystem provider for international commerce. **** **II.

Eligible nonprofits include both public charities and private foundations. Through this program, we finance essential equipment such as police motorcycles, cruisers, buses, fire trucks, EMS vehicles, and related public safety equipment. We are a preferred financing source for BMW Motorrad USA Police Motors. Financing is offered on a pass-through basis with a Midwest bank. Marketing channels have included direct outreach, trade shows, targeted industry publications, and referrals from manufacturers, dealerships, and existing municipal clients. **III.

Our reports are marketed under: - Cyclechex Motorcycle history reports (www.cyclechex.com); - RVchex Recreational vehicle history reports (www.rvchex.com); and - Truckchex Heavy-duty truck history reports (www.truckchex.com).

COMPETITIVE POSITIONING** We believe our targeted focus in underserved markets provides distinct competitive advantages: - Fintech Services Our staged-based trade finance solution offers specialized financing not widely available from traditional lenders. - Financial Services Our municipal leasing program offers custom financing solutions to municipalities, schools, and non-profit organizations nationwide for all of their essential equipment needs. - E-Commerce & Mobile Technology Our mobile application and website products provide cost-effective, customizable solutions for small- and medium-sized businesses, backed by industry-specific expertise. - Vehicle History Reports Our products address specialty vehicle categories not fully served by the dominant automotive report providers. - Health and Wellness Our U.S.-sourced supplement line appeals to consumers seeking premium, transparently sourced products. We compete on the basis of service quality, niche market focus, and the ability to develop and deploy proprietary technology solutions across multiple industries. of the RV space and do not intend to compete directly with either CarFax or AutoCheck. | Page 5 of 62 | | **Employees** As of April 30, 2025, we had four full-time employees and three part-time employees. **ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS** The Companys forward-looking statements are subject to uncertainties and risks, among them the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Companys operations from supply chain and distribution are impacted by government regulations and legislation, the economic landscape, revenue fluctuations, diminished customer base, competing products, regulatory changes, common share price volatility, availability of capital, successful integration of new businesses, and including but not limited to risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading Risk Factors in this MD&A and the Companys other filings with the SEC. The impact of any risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as these are interdependent, and the Companys future course of action depends on Managements assessment of all relevant information available at the time. Except to the extent required by law, the Company assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made in this MD&A, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, attributable to the Company or persons acting on the Companys behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. We are subject to certain risks and uncertainties in our business operations that are described below. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known or that are currently deemed immaterial may also impair our business operations. **Risks Related To Our Financial Condition** **We have a history of operating losses.** Through our fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, we have incurred significant expenses and have sustained significant losses. We have an accumulated deficit of $68,918,984 at April 30, 2025 and a negative working capital of $9,569,218. | Page 6 of 62 | | **Our business requires additional amounts of capital, and we will need to obtain additional financing in the near future.** To expand our business, we need raise additional capital to support our operations until we become cash flow positive. We will have to raise approximately $1 million over the next twelve months to support our business. As our business grows, we will need to seek additional financing to fund growth. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient capital or be able to secure credit facilities when needed. The failure to obtain additional funds, when required, on satisfactory terms and conditions, would have a material and adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition, and ultimately could result in the cessation of our business. To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution. In addition, any new equity securities may have greater rights, preferences or privileges than our existing common stock. A material shortage of capital will require us to take drastic steps such as reducing our level of operations, disposing of selected assets or seeking an acquisition partner. If cash is insufficient, we will not be able to continue operations. **We have a significant amount of debt which could impact our ability to continue to implement our business plan.** We have incurred total liabilities of $11,349,644 as of April 30, 2025. Unless we can restructure some or all this outstanding debt, and raise sufficient capital to fund our continued development, we will be unable to pay these obligations as our current operations do not generate significant revenue. **Our auditors opinion expresses doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.** The independent auditors report on our April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024 consolidated financial statements state that our historical losses raise substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate revenues or maintain any line of business that might prove to be profitable. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales, or obtaining credit lines or loans from various financial institutions where possible. If we are unable to develop our business, we may have to discontinue operations or cease to exist, which would be detrimental to the value of our common stock. We can make no assurances that our business operations will develop and provide us with significant cash to continue operations. **Risks Related to the Company** **We are a small company in the information technology business.** We are a relatively new entrant into the businesses of providing vehicle history reports and building mobile apps. We indirectly compete with major, well capitalized, suppliers of automobile history reports. While these companies do not presently offer motorcycle or RV history reports, there is no guaranty they will not do so in the future. Many small players characterize the mobile app development business. While we believe we are better suited to build, service, and market mobile apps than our competitors, there is no assurance that we can continue to do so. **We will require additional capital to implement our business plan and marketing strategies which we may be unable to secure.** Under our business plan, we intend to build and expand our operations substantially over the next several years. Our cash on hand is insufficient for our operational needs. We therefore need additional financing for working capital purposes and to grow our business. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to obtain additional financing as needed, we may be required to reduce or halt our anticipated expansion plans and our business and results of operations could be materially, adversely affected. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms deemed to be acceptable by us, and in our stockholders interests. | Page 7 of 62 | | **We face security risks related to our electronic processing of sensitive and confidential customer and associate data.** Given the nature of our business, we and/or our service providers collect process and retain sensitive and confidential customer data, including credit card information. Despite our current security measures, our facilities and systems, and those of our third-party service providers, may be vulnerable to information security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses or other similar attacks. An information security breach involving the disclosure of confidential data could damage our reputation and our customers willingness to shop on our websites, and subject us to possible legal liability. In addition, we may incur material remediation costs as a result of an information security breach, including liability for stolen customer or associate data, repairing system damage or providing credit monitoring or other benefits to customers or associates affected by the breach. **We could be harmed by data loss or other security breaches** As a result of our services being web-based and the fact that we process and/or our service providers, store and transmit large amounts of data, including personal information, for our customers, failure to prevent or mitigate data loss or other security breaches, including breaches of our vendors technology and systems, could expose us or our customers to a risk of loss or misuse of such information, adversely affect our operating results, result in litigation or potential liability for us and otherwise harm our business. We use third party technology and systems for a variety of reasons, including, without limitation, encryption and authentication technology, employee email, content delivery to customers, back-office support and other functions. Although we and our service providers have developed systems and processes that are designed to protect customer information and prevent data loss and other security breaches, such measures cannot provide absolute security. **A variety of factors and economic forces may affect our operating results.** Our operating results may differ from current forecasts and projections significantly in the future because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control. These factors include, without limitation, the receipt of revenues, which is difficult to forecast accurately, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the expansion of our operations, the introduction of new products or services by us or our competitors, borrowing costs, pricing changes in the industry, technical difficulties, general economic conditions, and economic conditions specific to our marketplace. The success of an investment in a vehicle history report and mobile app-based venture is dependent, at least, in part, on extrinsic economic forces, including the supply of and demand for such services. No assurance can be given that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to cover our cost of doing business. Furthermore, our revenues and results of operations will be subject to fluctuations based upon general economic conditions. Economic factors like unemployment, interest rates, and the availability of credit generally, municipal government and corporate budget constraints affecting equipment and technology purchases, the rate of inflation, and consumer perceptions of the economy may affect the volume of history report purchases. **We are dependent on our management and the loss of any officer could hinder our implementation of our business plan.** We are heavily dependent upon management, the loss of any one of whom could have a material adverse effect on our ability to implement our business plan. While we have entered into an employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer, this employment agreement could be terminated for a variety of reasons. We do not presently carry key man insurance on the life of any employee. If, for some reason, the services of management, or of any member of management, were no longer available to us, our operations and proposed businesses and endeavors may be materially adversely affected. Any failure of management to implement and manage our business strategy may have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance that our operating and financial control systems will be adequate to support our future operations. Furthermore, the inability to continue to upgrade the operating and financial control systems, the inability to recruit and hire necessary personnel or the emergence of unexpected expansion difficulties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. | Page 8 of 62 | | **Our business is dependent on intellectual property rights and we may not be able to protect such rights successfully.** Our intellectual property, including our license agreements and other agreements, which establish our rights to proprietary intellectual property, our Cyclechex, RVchex, and Truckchex vehicle history reports and our SMA and iMA mobile apps are of great value to our business operations. Infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property could materially harm our business. We rely on a combination of trade secret, copyright, trademark, and other proprietary rights laws to protect our rights to this valuable intellectual property. Third parties may try to challenge our intellectual property rights. In addition, our business is subject to the risk of third parties infringing or circumventing our intellectual property rights. We may need to resort to litigation in the future to protect our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights could have a material adverse effect on our business and competitive position. **COVID-19.** In December 2019, a novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was reported and in January 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. On February 28, 2020, the WHO raised its assessment of the COVID-19 threat from high to very high at a global level due to the continued increase in the number of cases and affected countries, and on March 11, 2020, the WHO characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. COVID-19 has impacted some of our customers. Our business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. While the Companys day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 have been impacted, we have suffered less immediate impact as most staff could work remotely during the height of the pandemic and can continue to develop our product offerings. Post-pandemic, we have adjusted our employees schedules to allow for both remote and non-remote hours as needed. Notwithstanding, revenues relating to mobile applications in certain verticals such as dealerships and racetracks fell and resulted in forbearance or cancellations during the pandemic. **Risks Related to our Subsidiary, New World Health Brands, Inc. (NWHB)** **NWHB has limited operating history.** NWHB is still in an early phase and is just beginning to implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that it will ever operate profitably. The likelihood of its success should be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays usually encountered by companies in their early stages of development, with low barriers to entry. NWHB may not be successful in attaining the objectives necessary for it to overcome these risks and uncertainties. **We need to raise additional capital to meet our future business requirements, and such capital raising may be costly or difficult to obtain and could dilute current stockholders ownership interests.** At this time, we have not secured or identified any additional financing to support NWHB. We do not have any firm commitments or other identified sources of additional capital from third parties or from our officers and directors or from other shareholders. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us, or that, if available, it will be on terms satisfactory to us. Any additional financing will involve dilution to our existing shareholders. If we do not obtain additional capital on terms satisfactory to us, or at all, it may cause us to delay, curtail, scale back or forgo some or all of our business operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results and investors would be at risk to lose all or a part of any investment in our Company. | Page 9 of 62 | | **Our future success will depend on our ability to increase revenues.** The market for health, wellness and performance products is large, highly fragmented and intensely competitive. Current and prospective participants include specialty retailers, supermarkets, drugstores, mass merchants, multi-level marketing organizations, online merchants, mail-order companies and a variety of other smaller participants. We believe that the market is also highly sensitive to the introduction of new products, which may rapidly capture a significant share of the market. In the United States, we compete for sales with heavily advertised national brands manufactured by large pharmaceutical and food companies, as well as other brands, some of which have greater market presence, both brick and mortar and online, name recognition and financial, marketing and other resources, including some competitors that may spend more aggressively on advertising and promotional activities than we do. In addition, as some products become more mainstream and achieve broader distribution, we may experience increased price competition and adverse impacts to category share and growth for those products as more participants enter the market or we otherwise fail to retain market share. Further, if we fail to build out our e-commerce platform or fail to provide our customers with a desired omni-channel experience, we may lose business to online retailers with a more robust and engaging e-commerce platform. Further, the ability of consumers to compare prices on a real-time basis through the use of smartphones and digital technology puts additional pressure on us to maintain competitive pricing. We compete in multiple product categories and sales channels, including traditional large store and specialty store formats, mass merchants, and catalog; and increasingly internet-based and direct-sell retailers and vendors. Many factors affect the extent to which competition could affect our results, including as it relates to pricing, quality, assortment, marketing, promotions and advertising, service, locations, capital expenditures, category share and reputation, and prolonged competitive pressures, any of which could have a material effect on our results of operations. In order to be successful, we must increase our revenues from the sale of our products to individuals and marketing affiliates. In order to increase our revenues, we must successfully: | | | create and implement a marketing plan to attract individuals and retailers to our Wellness products; | | | | | increase traffic to our website by developing relationships with popular websites; | | | | | convert online visitors to clients; | | | | | attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel with marketing and product development experience to serve in various capacities, including sales and marketing positions; | | | | | respond effectively to competitive pressures from other providers of Wellness products; | | If we are not successful in the execution of these strategies, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially adversely affected. **NWHB has losses which we expect to continue and there is no assurance our future operations will result in profitable revenues. If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably or are unable to raise additional funds, we may consider a merger, acquisition, joint venture, strategic alliance, a roll-up, or other business combination to increase business.** Many of our existing competitors, as well as several potential competitors, may have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than we do. This may enable them to respond more quickly to new or emerging consumer demands, or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, and sale of their products than we can. These competitors and potential competitors may be able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more attractive offers to potential employees. In addition, current and prospective competitors may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to improve their ability to address the needs of our existing and prospective customers. If these events occur, they could have a materially adverse effect on our revenue. Increased competition could also result in price reductions, reduced margins or loss of market share, any of which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. See Description of Business and Competition. We also believe our ability to compete depends on several factors outside of our control, including: | | | the prices at which others offer competitive products, including aggressive price competition and discounting; | | | | | the ability of our competitors to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns than we can; and | | | | | the extent of our competitors responsiveness to customer needs. | | In order to be competitive, we must have the ability to respond promptly and efficiently to the ever-changing marketplace. We must establish our name as a reliable and constant source of the highest quality products. | Page 10 of 62 | | **We may not be successful in increasing our brand awareness which would adversely affect our business, result of operations, and financial condition.** Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to increase the brand awareness of our website and the products we offer. If our marketing efforts are unsuccessful or if we cannot increase our brand awareness, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. In order to build our brand awareness, we must succeed in our marketing efforts, provide high quality products and increase traffic to our website. **We may not be able to successfully manage our growth.** For NWHB to succeed, it needs to experience significant expansion. There can be no assurance that it will achieve this expansion. This expansion, if accomplished, may place a significant strain on the Companys management, operational and financial resources. To manage any material growth, the Company will be required to implement operational and financial systems, procedures and controls. It also will be required to expand its finance, administrative and operations staff. There can be no assurance that the Companys current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support its future operations at any increased level. The Companys failure to manage growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition. **If we do not successfully establish and maintain our brand as highly trusted and respected or are unable to attract and retain clients, we could sustain loss of revenues, which could significantly affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.** In order to attract and retain a client base and increase business, we must establish, maintain and strengthen our name and the products we provide. In order to be successful in establishing our reputation, clients must perceive us as a trusted source for quality products and customer service. If we are unable to attract and retain clients with our current marketing plans, we may not be able to successfully establish our name and reputation, which could significantly affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. **Uninsured Losses** NWHB may obtain comprehensive insurance, including liability, fire and extended coverage, as is customarily obtained by business entities. Certain types of losses of a catastrophic nature, however, such as losses from floods, tornados, thunderstorms, hurricanes and earthquakes, are uninsurable or not economically insurable to the full extent of potential loss. Other uninsurable events such as Acts of God, work stoppages, pandemics, regulatory actions, or other causes, could interrupt operations and adversely affect NWHBs results of operations. **RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY** **We are dependent on third party merchant credit card processors.** Our future success will depend, in significant part, upon third party credit card processing firms. Loss of our merchant services credit card processing firm and the inability to rapidly replace that firm could have a substantial negative effect on our business. **We are dependent on the Internet infrastructure.** Our future success will depend, in significant part, upon the maintenance of the various components of the Internet infrastructure, such as a reliable backbone network with the necessary speed, data capacity and security, and the timely development of enabling products, such as high-speed modems, which provide reliable and timely Internet access and services. To the extent that the Internet continues to experience increased numbers of users, frequency of use or increased user bandwidth requirements, we cannot be sure that the Internet infrastructure will continue to be able to support the demands placed on it or that the performance or reliability of the Internet will not be adversely affected. Furthermore, the Internet has experienced a variety of outages and other delays as a result of damage to portions of its infrastructure or otherwise, and such outages or delays could adversely affect our website and the websites of our co-branded partners, as well as the Internet service providers and online service providers our customers use to access our services. In addition, the Internet could lose its viability as a commercial medium due to delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols that can handle increased levels of activity. We cannot predict whether the infrastructure and complementary products and services necessary to maintain the Internet as a viable commercial medium will be developed or maintained. The threat of hacking is an ongoing one and to the best of our ability we will monitor our servers, maintain up-to-date anti-virus and anti-malware programs and keep our employees advised as to proper computer security. | Page 11 of 62 | | **Risks Related to Investment in our Company** **The market for our common stock could be volatile and could decline when you want to sell your holdings.** Our common stock trades on the OTCQB under the symbol SRCO. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include but are not limited to: (i) actual or anticipated changes in our earnings, fluctuations in our operating results or our failure to meet the expectations of financial market analysts and investor; (ii) changes in financial estimates by us or by any securities analysts who might cover our stock; (iii) speculation about our business in the press or the investment community; (iv) stock market price and volume fluctuations of other publicly traded companies and, in particular, those that are in our industry; (v) our potential inability to pay back outstanding notes or debentures, or contractual obligations related to the cancellation thereof; (vi) investor perceptions of our respective industries in general and our company in particular; (vii) the operating and stock performance of comparable companies; (viii) general economic conditions and trends; (ix) major catastrophic events; (x) announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or divestitures; (xi) changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretation or principles; (xii) sales of our common stock, including sales by our directors, officers or significant stockholders; and (xiii) additions or departures of key personnel. Moreover, securities markets may from time-to-time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us. **Our common stock will be subject to the penny stock rules of the SEC, which may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell our common stock.** The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a penny stock, for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require (i) that a broker or dealer approve a persons account for transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a persons account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form (i) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. The regulations applicable to penny stocks may severely affect the market liquidity for our common stock and could limit an investors ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market. | Page 12 of 62 | | **We are subject to variable conversion prices and adjustments related to certain of our convertible notes and our common stock purchase warrants which could cause significant dilution to stockholders and adversely impact the price of our common stock.** Certain of our securities are subject to variable conversion prices and adjustments. As a result, future conversion of debt into shares of common stock or issuance of new convertible debt may result in significant dilution to our shareholders. There were approximately 42 million potential shares at April 30, 2025. The number of potential shares will likely vary based on fluctuations in the trading price of our stock. We are negotiating potential settlements of debt to reduce the number of potential shares. (SEE ITEM # 3 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS). **Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results and stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.** Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our operating results could be harmed. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, regardless of whether we are required to maintain such controls, could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price. Because of our limited resources, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting may not be effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Furthermore, we have not obtained an independent audit of our internal controls and, as a result, we are not aware of any deficiencies which would result from such an audit. Further, at such time as we are required to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may incur significant expenses in having our internal controls audited and in implementing any changes which are required. **We have not paid dividends on our common stock in the past and do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.** No cash dividends have been paid on our common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future operations and growth. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the near future. Payment of dividends would depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available for those dividends, and other factors as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investors investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates. **The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert managements attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members.** We are a public company and are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. For example, Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that our management report on, and our independent auditors attest to, the effectiveness of our internal controls structure and procedures for financial reporting. Section 404 compliance may divert internal resources and will take a significant amount of time and effort to complete. We may not be able successfully to complete the procedures and certification and attestation requirements of Section 404 by the time we will be required to do so. If we fail to do so, or if in the future our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or independent registered public accounting firm determines that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective as defined under Section 404, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Furthermore, investor perceptions of our company may suffer, and this could cause a decline in the market price of our common stock. Regardless of compliance with Section 404, any failure of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our stated results of operations and harm our reputation. If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting or financial results and could result in an adverse opinion on internal controls from our independent auditors. We may need to hire a number of additional employees with public accounting and disclosure experience in order to meet our ongoing obligations as a public company, which will increase costs. Our management team and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to new compliance initiatives and to meeting the obligations that are associated with being a public company, which may divert attention from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. | Page 13 of 62 | | **Future sales of our equity securities could result in downward selling pressure on our securities, and may adversely affect the stock price.** In the event that our equity securities are sold or convertible debt is converted into equity securities, there is a risk of downward pressure may result, making it difficult for an investor to sell his or her securities at any reasonable price, if at all. Future sales of substantial amounts of our equity securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could put downward selling pressure on our securities, and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. **We have authorized several classes of preferred stock that may alter the rights of common stockholders by giving preferred stockholders greater dividend rights, liquidation rights and voting rights than our common stockholders have.** Our board is empowered to issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock, on one or more series, with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. From time to time, we have designated, and may in the future designate, series of preferred stock carrying various preferences and rights different from, and greater than, our common stock. As of April 30, 2025, we have three series of preferred stock outstanding. Preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the company. **Risks Relating to our Fintech Segment** **Our fintech unit operating results may significantly fluctuate** Our operating results may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in accordance with market sentiments and movements in the broader crypto-economy and a variety of other factors, many of which are unpredictable and in certain instances are outside of our control, including: our ability to attract, maintain, grow, and engage our customer base; changes in the legislative or regulatory environment, or actions by U.S. or foreign governments or regulators, including fines, orders, or consent decrees; regulatory changes or scrutiny that impact our ability to offer certain products or services; pricing for or temporary suspensions of our products and services; our ability to establish and maintain partnerships, collaborations, joint ventures, or strategic alliances with third parties; market conditions of, and overall sentiment towards, the crypto-economy; macroeconomic conditions, including interest rates, inflation, and instability in the global banking system; adverse legal proceedings or regulatory enforcement actions, judgments, settlements, or other legal proceedings, and enforcement-related costs; the development and introduction of existing and new products and services by us or our competitors; the amount and timing of our operating expenses related to the maintenance and expansion of our business and operations, including investments we make in the development of products and services; system failures, outages, or interruptions, including with respect to our platform and third-party crypto networks; our lack of control over decentralized or third-party blockchains and networks that may experience downtime, cyberattacks, critical failures, errors, bugs, corrupted files, data losses, or other similar software failures, outages, breaches, and losses; breaches of security or privacy; inaccessibility of our platform due to our or third-party actions; our ability to attract and retain talent; and our ability to compete with our competitors. As a result of these factors, it is difficult for us to forecast growth trends accurately and our business and future prospects are difficult to evaluate, particularly in the short term. Therefore, our operating results could fluctuate significantly as a result of changes in the demand for our subscription and service offerings, in interest rates, and to our ongoing relationships with third parties. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of our business and the crypto-economy, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be meaningful, and you should not rely upon them as an indication of future performance. Quarterly and annual expenses reflected in our financial statements may be significantly different from historical or projected rates. Our operating results in one or more future quarters may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. As a result, the trading price of our common stock may increase or decrease significantly. **** **** | Page 14 of 62 | | **** **Our total fintech revenue will be substantially dependent on the volume of transactions conducted on our platforms. If volume declines, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected and the price of our common stock could decline.** We generate a large portion of our total fintech (and corporate) revenue from transaction fees on our platforms. Transaction revenue is based on transaction fees. Such revenue has grown over time. Declines in the volume of crypto related transactions, if any, among other reasons, may result in lower total revenue to us. The price of crypto assets and associated demand for buying, selling, and trading crypto assets and conversions back and forth with fiat have historically been subject to significant volatility. If the volume of such transactions declines in the future, our ability to generate revenue, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition and cause the price of our common stock to decline. The transaction volume of any crypto asset is subject to significant uncertainty and volatility, depending on a number of factors, including: market conditions of, and overall sentiment towards, crypto assets and the crypto-economy, including, but not limited to, as a result of actions taken by or developments of other companies in the crypto-economy; trading activities on other crypto platforms worldwide, many of which may be unregulated, and may include manipulative activities; investment and trading activities of highly active consumer and institutional users, speculators, miners, and investors; the speed and rate at which crypto is able to gain adoption as a medium of exchange, utility, store of value, consumptive asset, security instrument, or other financial assets worldwide, if at all; decreased user and investor confidence in crypto assets and crypto platforms; negative publicity and events relating to the crypto-economy; unpredictable social media coverage or trending of, or other rumors and market speculation regarding, crypto assets; the ability for crypto assets to meet user and investor demands; the functionality and utility of crypto assets and their associated ecosystems and networks, including crypto assets designed for use in various applications; consumer preferences and perceived value of crypto assets and crypto asset markets; increased competition from other payment services or other crypto assets that may exhibit better speed, security, scalability, or other characteristics; adverse legal proceedings or regulatory enforcement actions, judgments, or settlements impacting crypto-economy participants; regulatory or legislative changes, scrutiny, and updates affecting the crypto-economy; the characterization of crypto assets under the laws of various jurisdictions around the world; the adoption of unfavorable taxation policies on crypto asset investments by governmental entities; | Page 15 of 62 | | ongoing technological viability and security of crypto assets and their associated smart contracts, applications, and networks, including vulnerabilities against hacks and scalability; speed and fees associated with processing crypto asset transactions, including on the underlying blockchain networks and on crypto platforms; financial strength of market participants; the availability and cost of funding and capital; the liquidity and credit risk of other crypto platforms and other participants of the crypto-economy; interruptions or temporary suspensions or other compulsory restrictions in products or services from or failures of major crypto platforms; availability of an active derivatives market for various crypto assets; availability of banking and payment services to support crypto-related projects; instability in the global banking system and the level of interest rates and inflation; monetary policies of governments, trade restrictions, and fiat currency devaluations; and national and international economic and political conditions. There is no assurance that any supported crypto asset will maintain its value or that there will be meaningful levels of trading activities. In the event that the price of crypto assets or the demand for trading crypto assets decline, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected and the price of our Common Stock could decline. **** **Cyberattacks and security breaches of our platform, or those impacting our customers or third parties, could adversely affect our brand, reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition.** Our business involves the collection, storage, processing, and transmission of confidential information, customer, employee, service provider, and other personal data, as well as information required to access customer assets. We have built our reputation on the premise that our platform offers customers a secure way to trans act business.. As a result, any actual or perceived security breach of us or our third-party partners may: harm our reputation and brand; result in our systems or services being unavailable and interrupt our operations; result in improper disclosure of data and violations of applicable privacy and data protection laws; result in significant regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties, and other legal, regulatory, and financial exposure; cause us to incur significant remediation costs; lead to theft or irretrievable loss of our or our customers fiat currencies or crypto assets; reduce customer confidence in, or decrease customer use of, our products and services; divert the attention of management from the operation of our business; | Page 16 of 62 | | result in significant compensation or contractual penalties payable by us to our customers or third parties as a result of losses to them or claims by them; and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. Further, any actual or perceived breach or cybersecurity attack directed at other financial institutions or crypto companies, whether or not we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of customer confidence in the crypto-economy or in the use of technology to conduct financial transactions, which could negatively impact us, including the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures and technology infrastructure. An increasing number of organizations, including large merchants, businesses, technology companies, and financial institutions, as well as government institutions, have disclosed breaches of their information security systems, some of which have involved sophisticated and highly targeted attacks, including on their websites, mobile applications, and infrastructure. Attacks upon systems across a variety of industries, including the crypto industry, are increasing in their frequency, persistence, and sophistication, and, in many cases, are being conducted by sophisticated, well-funded, and organized groups and individuals, including state actors. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper, or illegal access to systems and information (including customers personal data and crypto assets), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners. Certain types of cyberattacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, attacks may be designed to deceive employees and service providers into releasing control of our systems to a hacker, while others may aim to introduce computer viruses or malware into our systems with a view to stealing confidential or proprietary data. Additionally, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable until launched against a target, and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Although we have developed systems and processes designed to protect the data we manage, prevent data loss, and other security breaches, effectively to respond to known and potential risks, and expect to continue to expend significant resources to bolster these protections, there can be no assurance that these security measures will provide absolute security or prevent breaches or attacks. We may experience in the future, breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities, or other irregularities. Unauthorized parties may attempt to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our customers, partners, and third-party service providers, through various means, including hacking, social engineering, phishing, and attempting to fraudulently induce individuals (including employees, service providers, and our customers) into disclosing usernames, passwords, payment card information, or other sensitive information, which may in turn be used to access our information technology systems and customers crypto assets. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. Certain threat actors may be supported by significant financial and technological resources, making them even more sophisticated and difficult to detect. If we acquire a third-party entity, as to which we do not have any current plans, that acquisition may expose us to unexpected security risks or increase costs to improve the security posture of the acquired company. Further, there has been an increase in such threat actor activities as a result of the increased prevalence of hybrid and remote working arrangements in recent years. As a result, our costs and the resources we devote to protecting against these advanced threats and their consequences may continue to increase over time. Outages and disruptions of our platform, including any caused by cyberattacks, may harm our reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition. | Page 17 of 62 | | **** **We are subject to an extensive, highly-evolving, and uncertain regulatory landscape and any adverse changes to, or our failure to comply with, any laws and regulations could adversely affect our brand, reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition.** Our business is subject to extensive laws, rules, regulations, policies, orders, determinations, directives, treaties, and legal and regulatory interpretations and guidance in the markets in which we operate, including those governing financial services and banking, federal government contractors, trust companies, securities, derivative transactions and markets, broker-dealers and alternative trading systems (ATS), commodities, credit, crypto asset custody, exchange, and transfer, cross-border and domestic money and crypto asset transmission, commercial lending, usury, foreign currency exchange, privacy, data governance, data protection, cybersecurity, fraud detection, payment services (including payment processing and settlement services), consumer protection, escheatment, antitrust and competition, bankruptcy, tax, anti-bribery, economic and trade sanctions, anti-money laundering, and counter-terrorist financing. Many of these legal and regulatory regimes were adopted prior to the advent of the internet, mobile technologies, crypto assets, generative artificial intelligence (AI) and related technologies and may not directly apply to our fintech business. As a result, some applicable laws and regulations do not contemplate or address unique issues associated with the crypto-economy, are subject to significant uncertainty, and vary widely across US. federal, state, and local and international jurisdictions. These legal and regulatory regimes, including the laws, rules, and regulations thereunder, evolve frequently and may be modified, interpreted, and applied in an inconsistent manner from one jurisdiction to another, and may conflict with one another. Moreover, the complexity and evolving nature of our business and the significant uncertainty surrounding the regulation of the crypto-economy requires us to exercise our judgment as to whether certain laws, rules, and regulations apply to us, and it is possible that governmental bodies and regulators may disagree with our conclusions. To the extent we have not complied with (or are deemed not to have complied with) such laws, rules, and regulations, we could be subject to significant fines, revocation of licenses, limitations on or temporary or permanent suspensions of our products and services, reputational harm, and other regulatory consequences, each of which may be significant and could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. Governmental and regulatory bodies, including in the United States, may introduce new policies, laws, and regulations relating to crypto assets and the crypto-economy generally, and crypto asset platforms in particular. Other companies failures of risk management and other control functions could contribute to stricter oversight of crypto asset platforms and the crypto-economy. Furthermore, new interpretations of existing laws and regulations may be issued by such bodies or the judiciary, which may adversely impact the development of the crypto-economy as a whole and our legal and regulatory status in particular by changing how we operate our business, how our products and services are regulated, and what products or services we and our competitors can offer, requiring changes to our compliance and risk mitigation measures, imposing new licensing requirements, or imposing a total ban on certain crypto asset transactions, as has occurred in certain jurisdictions in the past. If we are unable to comply with any new requirements, our ability to offer our products and services in their current form may be adversely affected. Additionally, under recommendations from the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), and the Financial Action Task Force, the United States and several foreign jurisdictions have or are likely to impose the Funds Travel Rule and the Funds Transfer Rule (commonly referred to collectively as the Travel Rule) on financial service providers in the crypto-economy. We may face substantial costs to operationalize and comply with the Travel Rule and may be further subject to administrative sanctions for technical violations or customer attrition if the user experience suffers as a result. There are substantial uncertainties regarding the scope of these requirements in practice, and we may face substantial costs to operationalize and comply with these rules. Moreover, we may offer in the future products and services whose functionality or value depends in part on our management of token transaction smart contracts, liquid staking, asset tracking, or other applications that provide novel forms of customer engagement and interaction delivered via blockchain protocols. We may also offer products and services whose functionality or value depends on our ability to develop, integrate, or otherwise interact with such applications within the bounds of our legal and compliance obligations. The legal and regulatory landscape for such products, including the law governing the rights and obligations between and among smart contract developers and users and the extent to which such relationships entail regulated activity is uncertain and rapidly evolving. Our interaction with those applications, and the interaction of other blockchain users with any smart contracts or assets we may generate or control, could present legal, operational, reputational, and regulatory risks for our business. Due to our business activities, we are subject to ongoing examinations, oversight, and reviews and we may expect in the future, to be subject to investigations and inquiries, by U.S. federal and state regulators and foreign financial service regulators, many of which have broad discretion to audit and examine our business. We may be periodically subject to audits and examinations by these regulatory authorities. As a result of findings from these audits and examinations, regulators may in the future require us to take certain actions, including amending, updating, or revising our compliance measures from time to time, limiting the kinds of customers that we provide services to, changing, terminating, or delaying our licenses and the introduction of new products or services, and undertaking further external audit or being subject to further regulatory scrutiny, including investigations and inquiries. We may in the future receive examination reports citing violations of rules and regulations, inadequacies in existing compliance programs, and requiring us to initiate or enhance certain practices with respect to our compliance program, including due diligence, monitoring, training, reporting, and recordkeeping. Implementing appropriate measures to properly remediate these examination findings may require us to incur significant costs, and if we fail to remediate properly any of these examination findings, we could face civil litigation, significant fines, damage awards, forced removal of certain employees including members of our executive team, barring of certain employees from participating in our business in whole or in part, revocation of existing licenses, limitations on existing and new products and services, reputational harm, negative impact to our existing relationships with regulators, exposure to criminal liability, or other regulatory consequences. Further, we believe increasingly strict legal and regulatory requirements and additional regulatory investigations and enforcement, any of which could occur or intensify, may continue to result in changes to our business, as well as increased costs, and supervision and examination for ourselves, our agents, and service providers. Moreover, new laws, regulations, or interpretations may result in additional litigation, regulatory investigations, and enforcement or other actions, including preventing or delaying us from offering certain products or services offered by our competitors or could impact how we offer such products and services. Adverse changes to, or our failure to comply with, any laws and regulations have had, and may continue to have, an adverse effect on our reputation and brand and our business, operating results, and financial condition. | Page 18 of 62 | | **Any significant disruption in our products and services, in our information technology systems, or in any of the blockchain networks we support, could result in a loss of customers or funds and adversely affect our brand, reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition.** Our reputation and ability to attract and retain customers and grow our business depends on our ability to operate our service at high levels of reliability, scalability, and performance, including the ability to process and monitor, on a daily basis, a large number of transactions that occur at high volume and frequencies across multiple systems. Our platform, the ability of our customers to trade, and our ability to operate at a high level, are dependent on our ability to access the blockchain networks underlying the supported crypto assets, for which access is dependent on our systems ability to access the internet. Further, the successful and continued operations of such blockchain networks will depend on a network of computers, miners, or validators, and their continued operations, all of which may be impacted by service interruptions. The systems of our third-party service providers and certain crypto asset and blockchain networks have experienced from time to time, and may experience in the future service interruptions or degradation because of hardware and software defects or malfunctions, distributed denial-of-service and other cyberattacks, insider threats, break-ins, sabotage, human error, vandalism, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, and other natural disasters, power losses, disruptions in telecommunications services, fraud, military or political conflicts, terrorist attacks, computer viruses or other malware, or other events. In addition, extraordinary trading volumes or site usage could cause our computer systems to operate at an unacceptably slow speed or even fail. If any of our systems, or those of our third-party service providers, are disrupted for any reason, our products and services may fail, resulting in unanticipated disruptions, slower response times and delays in our customers trade execution and processing, failed settlement of trades, incomplete or inaccurate accounting, recording or processing of trades, unauthorized trades, loss of customer information, increased demand on limited customer support resources, customer claims, complaints with regulatory organizations, lawsuits, or enforcement actions. Further, when these disruptions occur, we have in the past, and may in the future, fulfill customer transactions using inventory to prevent adverse user impact and limit detrimental impact to our operating results. A prolonged interruption in the availability or reduction in the availability, speed, or functionality of our products and services could harm our business. Significant or persistent interruptions in our services could cause current or potential customers or partners to believe that our systems are unreliable, leading them to switch to our competitors or to avoid or reduce the use of our products and services, and could permanently harm our reputation and brands. Moreover, to the extent that any system failure or similar event results in damages to our customers or their business partners, these customers or partners could seek significant compensation or contractual penalties from us for their losses, and those claims, even if unsuccessful, would likely be time-consuming and costly for us to address. Problems with the reliability or security of our systems would harm our reputation and the cost of remedying these problems could negatively affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. | Page 19 of 62 | | Because we are a regulated financial institution in certain jurisdictions, interruptions have resulted and in the future may result in regulatory scrutiny, and significant or persistent interruptions could lead to significant fines and penalties, and mandatory and costly changes to our business practices, and ultimately could cause us to lose existing licenses or banking relationships that we need to operate or prevent or delay us from obtaining additional licenses that may be required for our business. In addition, we are continually improving and upgrading our information systems and technologies. Implementation of new systems and technologies is complex, expensive, time-consuming, and may not be successful. If we fail to timely and successfully implement new information systems and technologies, or improvements or upgrades to existing information systems and technologies, or if such systems and technologies do not operate as intended, it could adversely affect our internal controls (including internal controls over financial reporting), and our business, operating results, and financial condition. **If we fail to retain existing customers or add new customers, or if our customers decrease their level of engagement with our products, services and platform, our business, operating results, and financial condition may be significantly harmed.** Our success depends on our ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers, including developers, to increase engagement with our products, services, and platform. To do so, we must continue to offer leading technologies and ensure that our products and services are secure, reliable, and engaging. We must also expand our products and services, and offer competitive prices in an increasingly crowded and price-sensitive market. There is no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so, that we will be able to retain our current customers or attract new customers, or keep our customers engaged. Any number of factors can negatively affect customer retention, growth, and engagement, including if: customers increasingly engage with competing products and services, including products and services that we are unable to offer due to regulatory reasons; we fail to introduce new and improved products and services, or if we introduce new products or services that are not favorably received; we fail to support new and in-demand crypto assets or if we elect to support crypto assets with negative reputations; there are changes in sentiment about the quality or usefulness of our products and services or concerns related to privacy, security, fiat pegging, or other factors; there are adverse changes in our products and services that are mandated by legislation, regulatory authorities, or litigation; customers perceive the crypto assets on our platform to be bad investments, or experience significant losses in investments made on our platform; technical or other problems prevent us from delivering our products and services with the speed, functionality, security, and reliability that our customers expect; cybersecurity incidents, employee or service provider misconduct, or other unforeseen activities cause losses to us or our customers, including losses to assets held by us on behalf of our customers; modifications to our pricing model or modifications by competitors to their pricing models; | Page 20 of 62 | | we fail to provide adequate customer service; regulatory and governmental bodies in countries that we target for expansion express negative views towards crypto asset trading platforms and, more broadly, the crypto-economy; or we or other companies or high-profile figures in our industry are the subject of adverse media reports or other negative publicity. From time to time, certain of these factors may negatively affect customer retention, growth, and engagement to varying degrees. If we are unable to maintain or increase our customer base and customer engagement, our revenue and financial results may be adversely affected. Any decrease in user retention, growth, or engagement could render our products and services less attractive to customers and lead to a decrease in revenue, and our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. If our customer growth rate slows or declines, we will become increasingly dependent on our ability to maintain or increase levels of user engagement and monetization in order to drive growth of revenue. **Our operating expenses may increase in the future and we may not be successful in increasing our revenue to sufficiently offset these higher expenses, which could impact our ability to achieve profitability or positive cash flow from operations on a consistent basis and cause our business, operating results, and financial condition to be adversely affected.** Our operating expenses may increase in the future as we continue to grow our business. While we consistently evaluate opportunities to drive efficiency, we cannot guarantee that these efforts will be successful or that we will not need to accelerate operating expenditures in the future. Our operations may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our net revenue sufficiently to offset these higher expenses. Additionally, our revenue growth may be negatively impacted by, among other things, reduced demand for our offerings, increased competition, adverse macroeconomic conditions, any decrease in the growth or size of the crypto-economy, regulatory uncertainty or scrutiny, changes that impact our ability to offer certain products or services, or failure of new products and services to gain market adoption. As a result, we cannot be certain that we will be able to achieve profitability or achieve positive operating cash flow on any quarterly or annual basis. If we are unable to effectively manage these risks and difficulties as we encounter them, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer. **If we do not effectively manage our growth, including by maintaining and improving our systems and processes, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.** We have experienced, and may experience in the future, periods of significant growth. To manage and capitalize on our growth periods effectively, we will need to manage headcount, capital, and processes efficiently, while making investments, such as expanding our information technology and financial, operating, and administrative systems and controls, and such initiatives could strain our resources. We could experience operating difficulties in managing our business as it expands across numerous jurisdictions, including difficulties in hiring, training, managing, and retaining a remote and evolving employee base. If we do not adapt or scale to meet these evolving challenges, we may experience erosion to our brand, the quality of our products and services may suffer, and our Companys culture may be harmed. Moreover, the failure of our systems and processes could undermine our ability to provide accurate, timely, and reliable reports on our financial and operating results, including the financial statements provided herein, and could impact the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. In addition, our systems and processes may not prevent or detect all errors, omissions, or fraud. Any of the foregoing operational failures could lead to noncompliance with laws and regulations, loss of operating licenses or other authorizations, or loss of bank relationships that could substantially impair or even suspend company operations. Successful implementation of our growth strategy will also require significant expenditures possibly prior to the generation of any substantial associated revenue and we cannot guarantee that these increased investments will result in corresponding and offsetting revenue growth. Because we have a limited history operating our business at its current scale, it is difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects, including our ability to plan for and model future growth. Our limited operating experience at this scale, combined with the rapidly evolving and volatile nature of the cryptoasset market in which we operate, and other economic factors beyond our control, reduces our ability to accurately forecast quarterly or annual revenue accurately. | Page 21 of 62 | | **Due to our limited fintech operating history, it may be difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects, and we may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in any given period.** We established Agoge Global USA, Inc. in December 2022. Following its establishment, our business model has continued to evolve. Our net revenue has grown since that formation. There is no assurance that growth will continue in future periods and you should not rely on growth of our revenue in any given prior quarterly or annual period as an indication of our future performance. If our net revenue were to decline significantly for any extended period of time, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. Our limited operating history and the volatile nature of our business make it difficult to evaluate our current business and our future prospects. We have encountered and will continue to encounter risks and difficulties as described in this section. If we do not manage these risks successfully, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. **Any acquisitions and investments that we make could require significant management attention, disrupt our business, result in dilution to our stockholders, and could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.** As part of our business strategy, we routinely conduct discussions and evaluate opportunities for possible acquisitions, strategic investments, entries into new businesses, joint ventures, and other transactions. Although we have no present plans for future acquisitions, we may make acquisitions of and investments in, among other things, specialized employees and complementary companies, products, services, licenses, or technologies. In the future, the pace and scale of our acquisitions may increase and may include larger acquisitions than we have done historically. In the future, we may not be able to find other suitable acquisition candidates, and we may not be able to complete acquisitions on favorable terms, if at all. In some cases, the costs of such acquisitions may be substantial, and there is no assurance that we will receive a favorable return on investment for our acquisitions. Our acquisitions may not achieve our goals, and any future acquisitions we complete could be viewed negatively by customers, developers, or investors. In addition, if we fail to successfully close or integrate any acquisitions, or integrate the products or technologies associated with such acquisitions into our Company, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. Our ability to acquire and integrate companies, products, services, licenses, employees, or technologies in a successful manner is unproven. Any integration process may require significant time and resources, and we may not be able to manage the process successfully, including successfully securing regulatory approvals which may be required to close the transaction and to continue to operate the target firms business or products in a manner that is useful to us. We may not successfully evaluate or utilize the acquired products, services, technology, or personnel, or accurately forecast the financial impact of an acquisition transaction, including accounting charges. We may have to pay cash, incur debt, or issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. The sale of equity or issuance of debt to finance any such acquisitions could result in dilution to our stockholders, which, depending on the size of the acquisition, may be significant. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could also include covenants or other restrictions that would impede our ability to manage our operations. **** **If we fail to develop, maintain, and enhance our brand and reputation, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.** Our brand and reputation are key assets and a competitive advantage. Maintaining, protecting, and enhancing our brand depends largely on the success of our marketing efforts, ability to provide consistent, high-quality, and secure products, services, features, and support. We believe that the importance of our brand will increase as competition further intensifies. Our brand and reputation could be harmed if we fail to achieve these objectives or if our public image were to be tarnished by negative publicity, unexpected events, or actions by third parties. Unfavorable publicity regarding, for example, our product changes, product quality, litigation or regulatory activity, privacy and data security practices, terms of service, employment matters, the use of our products or services for illicit or objectionable ends, the actions of our customers, or the actions of other companies that provide similar services to ours, has in the past, and could in the future, adversely affect our reputation. Moreover, to the extent that we acquire a company and maintain that acquired companys separate brand, we could experience brand dilution or fail to retain positive impressions of our own brand to the extent such impressions are instead attributed to the acquired companys brand. Such negative publicity also could have an adverse effect on the size and engagement of our customers and could result in decreased revenue, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. | Page 22 of 62 | | **Internal key business metrics and other estimates are subject to inherent challenges in measurement and change as our business evolves, and our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected by real or perceived inaccuracies in those metrics or any changes in metrics we disclose.** We regularly review our internal key business metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, and make strategic decisions. These internal key business metrics are calculated using internal company data and have not been validated by an independent third party. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates for the applicable period of measurement at the time of reporting, there are inherent challenges in such measurements. If we fail to maintain an effective analytics platform, our internal key business metrics calculations may be inaccurate, and we may not be able to identify those inaccuracies. Additionally, we may in the future calculate certain internal key business metrics using third-party data. While we believe the third-party data we may use in the future will be reliable, we may not in the future independently verify the accuracy or completeness of the data contained in such sources and there can be no assurance that such data is free of error. Any inaccuracy in the third-party data we use could cause us to overstate or understate our internal key business metrics. We regularly review our processes for calculating these metrics, and from time to time we have made adjustments that we believe may improve their accuracy. **Our platform may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money laundering, gambling, tax evasion, and scams. If our platform is used to further such illegal activities, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.** Our platform may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money laundering, gambling, tax evasion, and scams. We or our partners may be specifically targeted by individuals seeking to conduct fraudulent transfers, and it may be difficult or impossible for us to detect and avoid such transactions in certain circumstances. The use of our platform for illegal or improper purposes could subject us to claims, individual and class action lawsuits, and government and regulatory investigations, prosecutions, enforcement actions, inquiries, or requests that could result in liability and reputational harm for us. Moreover, certain activities that may be legal in one jurisdiction may be illegal in another jurisdiction, and certain activities that are at one time legal may in the future be deemed illegal in the same jurisdiction. As a result, there is significant uncertainty and cost associated with detecting and monitoring transactions for compliance with local laws. In the event that a customer is found responsible for intentionally or inadvertently violating the laws in any jurisdiction, we may be subject to governmental inquiries, enforcement actions, prosecuted, or otherwise held secondarily liable for aiding or facilitating such activities. Changes in law have also increased the penalties for money transmitters for certain illegal activities, and government authorities may consider increased or additional penalties from time to time. Owners of intellectual property rights or government authorities may seek to bring legal action against money transmitters, including us, for involvement in the sale of infringing or allegedly infringing items. Any threatened or resulting claims could result in reputational harm, and any resulting liabilities, loss of transaction volume, or increased costs could harm our business. Moreover, while fiat currencies can be used to facilitate illegal activities, crypto assets are relatively new and, in many jurisdictions, may be lightly regulated or largely unregulated. Many types of crypto assets have characteristics, such as the speed with which digital currency transactions can be conducted, the ability to conduct transactions without the involvement of regulated intermediaries, the ability to engage in transactions across multiple jurisdictions, the irreversible nature of certain crypto asset transactions, and encryption technology that anonymizes these transactions, that make crypto assets susceptible to use in illegal activity. U.S. federal and state and foreign regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies, such as the Department of Justice, Securities and Exchange Commission, Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Federal Trade Commission, or the Internal Revenue Service, and various state securities and financial regulators have taken and continue to take legal action against persons and entities alleged to be engaged in fraudulent schemes or other illicit activity involving crypto assets. We also support crypto assets that incorporate privacy-enhancing features, and may from time to time support additional crypto assets with similar functionalities. These privacy-enhancing crypto assets obscure the identities of sender and receiver, and may prevent law enforcement officials from tracing the source of funds on the blockchain. Facilitating transactions in these crypto assets may cause us to be at increased risk of liability arising out of anti-money laundering and economic sanctions laws and regulations. | Page 23 of 62 | | **Our compliance and risk management methods might not be effective and may result in outcomes that could adversely affect our reputation, operating results, and financial condition.** Our ability to comply with applicable complex and evolving laws, regulations, and rules is largely dependent on the establishment, maintenance, and scaling of our compliance, internal audit, and reporting systems continuously to keep pace with our customer activity and transaction volume, as well as our ability to attract and retain qualified compliance and other risk management personnel. While we have devoted comparatively significant resources to develop policies and procedures to identify, monitor, and manage our risks, and expect to continue to do so in the future, we cannot assure you that our policies and procedures are and will always be effective or that we have been and will always be successful in monitoring or evaluating the risks to which we are or may be exposed in all market environments or against all types of risks, including unidentified or unanticipated risks. Our risk management policies and procedures rely on a combination of technical and human controls and supervision that are subject to error and failure. Some of our methods for managing risk are discretionary by nature and are based on internally developed controls and observed historical market behavior, and also involve reliance on standard industry practices. These methods may not adequately prevent losses, particularly as they relate to extreme market movements, which may be significantly greater than historical fluctuations in the market. Accordingly, in the future, we may identify gaps in such policies and procedures or existing gaps may become higher risk, and may require significant resources and management attention. Our risk management policies and procedures also may not adequately prevent losses due to technical errors if our testing and quality control practices are not effective in preventing failures. In addition, we may elect to adjust our risk management policies and procedures to allow for an increase in risk tolerance, which could expose us to the risk of greater losses. **The crypto-economy is novel. As a result, policymakers are just beginning to consider what a regulatory regime for crypto would look like and the elements that would serve as the foundation for such a regime. This less developed consideration of crypto may harm our ability to effectively react to proposed legislation and regulation of crypto assets or crypto asset platforms adverse to our business.** As crypto assets have grown in both popularity and market size, various U.S. federal, state, and local and foreign governmental organizations, consumer agencies, and public advocacy groups have been examining the operations of crypto networks, users, and platforms, with a focus on how crypto assets can be used to launder the proceeds of illegal activities, fund criminal or terrorist enterprises, and simultaneously how to ensure the safety and soundness of platforms and other service providers that hold crypto assets for users. Many of these entities have called for heightened regulatory oversight, and have issued consumer advisories describing the risks posed by crypto assets to users and investors. Competitors, including traditional financial services, have spent years cultivating professional relationships with relevant policymakers on behalf of their industry so that those policymakers may understand that industry, the current legal landscape affecting that industry, and the specific policy proposals that could be implemented in order to responsibly develop that industry. The lobbyists working for these competitors have similarly spent years developing and working to implement strategies to advance their industries. Members of the crypto-economy have started to engage policymakers directly and with the help of external advisors and lobbyists. However, these efforts to educate policymakers and advocate for sensible regulation are nascent compared to more established industries, and may be perceived unfavorably by investors and the public and have an adverse impact on our brand and reputation. As a result, new laws and regulations may be proposed and adopted in the United States and internationally, or existing laws and regulations may be interpreted in new ways, that harm the crypto-economy or crypto asset platforms, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. | Page 24 of 62 | | **** **We obtain and process a large amount of sensitive customer data. Any real or perceived improper use of, disclosure of, or access to such data could harm our reputation, as well as adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.** We obtain and process large amounts of sensitive data, including personal data related to our customers and their transactions, such as their names, addresses, social security numbers, visa information, copies of government-issued identification, facial recognition data (from scanning of photographs for identity verification), trading data, tax identification, and bank account information. We face risks, including to our reputation, in the handling and protection of these data, and these risks will increase as our business continues to expand, including through our acquisition of, and investment in, other companies and technologies. Federal, state, and international laws and regulations governing privacy, data protection, and e-commerce transactions require us to safeguard our customers, employees, and service providers personal data. We have administrative, technical, and physical security measures and controls in place and maintain a robust information security program. However, our security measures, those of our vendors or service providers, or the security measures of companies we acquire, may be inadequate or breached as a result of third-party action, employee or service provider error, malfeasance, malware, phishing, hacking attacks, system error, trickery, advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, inadequate facility security or otherwise, and, as a result, someone may be able to obtain unauthorized access to sensitive information, including personal data, on our systems. We could be the target of a cybersecurity incident, which could result in harm to our reputation and financial losses. Additionally, privacy and data protection laws are evolving, and these laws may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our data handling safeguards and practices that could result in fines, lawsuits, and other penalties, and significant changes to our or our third-party partners business practices and products and service offerings. Our future success depends on the reliability and security of our platform. To the extent that the measures we, any companies we acquire, or our third-party service providers, vendors, or business partners have taken prove to be insufficient or inadequate, or to the extent we discover a security breach suffered by a company we acquire following the closing of such acquisition, we may become subject to litigation, breach notification obligations, or regulatory or administrative sanctions, which could result in significant fines, penalties, damages, harm to our reputation, or loss of customers. If our own confidential business information or sensitive customer information were improperly disclosed, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. Additionally, a party who circumvents our security measures could, among other effects, appropriate customer information or other proprietary data, cause interruptions in our operations, or expose customers to hacks, viruses, and other disruptions. Depending on the nature of the information compromised, in the event of a data breach or other unauthorized access to our customer data, we may also have obligations to notify customers and regulators about the incident, and we may need to provide some form of remedy, such as a subscription to credit monitoring services, pay significant fines to one or more regulators, or pay compensation in connection with a class-action settlement. Breach notification laws continue to evolve and may be inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another. In the United States, the SEC has adopted rules for mandatory disclosure of material cybersecurity incidents suffered by public companies, as well as cybersecurity governance and risk management. Complying with these obligations could cause us to incur substantial costs and could increase negative publicity surrounding any incident that compromises customer data. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with these laws may also subject us to enforcement action or litigation, any of which could harm our business. Additionally, the financial exposure from the events referenced above could either not be insured against or not be fully covered through any insurance that we may maintain, and there can be no assurance that the limitations of liability in any of our contracts would be enforceable or adequate or would otherwise protect us from liabilities or damages as a result of the events referenced above. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our business, reputation, operating results, and financial condition. Furthermore, we may be required to disclose personal data pursuant to demands from individuals, regulators, government agencies, and law enforcement agencies in various jurisdictions with conflicting privacy and security laws, which could result in a breach of privacy and data protection policies, notices, laws, rules, court orders, and regulations. Additionally, changes in the laws and regulations that govern our collection, use, and disclosure of customer data could impose additional requirements with respect to the retention and security of customer data, could limit our marketing activities, and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. **** **** | Page 25 of 62 | | **** **We are subject to laws, regulations, and industry requirements related to data privacy, data protection and information security, and user protection where we conduct our business, and industry requirements and such laws, regulations, and industry requirements are constantly evolving and changing. Any actual or perceived failure to comply with such laws, regulations, and industry requirements, or our privacy policies, could harm our business.** Various local, state, federal, and international laws, directives, and regulations apply to our collection, use, retention, protection, disclosure, transfer, and processing of personal data. These data protection and privacy laws and regulations are subject to uncertainty and continue to evolve in ways that could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. These laws have a substantial impact on our operations both outside and in the United States, either directly or as a data processor and handler for various offshore entities. In the United States, state and federal lawmakers and regulatory authorities have increased their attention on the collection and use of user data and various laws and regulations apply to the collection, processing, disclosure, and security of certain types of data, including the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA) and state laws relating to privacy and data security. GLBA requires financial institutions to explain their information sharing practices to their customers and to safeguard sensitive data. Additionally, the Federal Trade Commission and many state attorneys general are interpreting federal and state consumer protection laws as imposing standards for the online collection, use, dissemination, and security of data. For example, California has enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act (the CCPA). The CCPA requires covered companies to, among other things, provide disclosures to individuals in California, and affords such individuals new privacy rights such as the ability to opt-out of certain sales of personal information and expanded rights to access and require deletion of their personal information, opt out of certain personal information sharing, and receive detailed information about how their personal information is collected, used, and shared. The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for security breaches that may increase security breach litigation. In addition, other U.S. states have proposed or enacted laws that contain obligations similar to the CCPA that have taken effect or will take effect in coming years. We cannot fully predict the impact of recently proposed or enacted laws or regulations on our business or operations, but compliance may require us to modify our data processing practices and policies incurring costs and expense. Further, to the extent multiple state-level laws are introduced with inconsistent or conflicting standards, it may require costly and difficult efforts to achieve compliance with such laws. Our failure or perceived failure to comply with state privacy laws or regulations passed in the future could adversely affect our business, including how we use personal information, operating results, and financial condition. There is a risk that as we expand, we may assume liabilities for breaches experienced by the companies that we may acquire. Additionally, there are potentially inconsistent world-wide government regulations pertaining to data protection and privacy. Despite our efforts to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and other obligations relating to privacy, data protection, and information security, it is possible that our practices, offerings, or platform could fail, or be alleged to fail to meet applicable requirements. For instance, the overall regulatory framework governing the application of privacy laws to blockchain technology is still highly undeveloped and likely to evolve. Further there are also changes in the regulatory landscape relating to new and evolving technologies. Our failure, or the failure by our third-party providers or partners, to comply with applicable laws or regulations and to prevent unauthorized access to, or use or release of personal data, or the perception that any of the foregoing types of failure has occurred, even if unfounded, could subject us to audits, inquiries, whistleblower complaints, adverse media coverage, investigations, severe criminal, or civil sanctions, damage our reputation, or result in fines or proceedings by governmental agencies and private claims and litigation, any of which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. **ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS** Not applicable. **ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY** We rely on our information technology to operate our business. As such, we have policies and processes designed to protect our information technology systems, some of which are managed by third parties, and resolve issues in a timely manner in the event of a cybersecurity threat or incident. We have designed our business applications and hosting services to minimize the impact that cybersecurity incidents could have on our business and have identified back-up systems where appropriate. We seek to further mitigate cybersecurity risks through a combination of monitoring and detection activities, use of anti-malware applications, employee training, quality audits and communication and reporting structures, among other processes. We engage a third-party consultant to assist us with our cybersecurity risk management framework, including the monitoring and detection of cybersecurity threats and responding to any cybersecurity threats or incidents. Our third-party consultant team is managed by our Vice President Operations who reports to the Chief Executive Officer or the board-level, as appropriate. As of April 30, 2025, we have not identified an indication of a cybersecurity incident that would have a material impact on our business and consolidated financial statements. **ITEM 2. PROPERTIES** Our executive offices are located at 555 Fifth Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, NY 10017. We had an agreement for use of office space at this location under a sub-lease which expired July 31, 2018 and continues on a month-to-month basis thereafter. For the year ending April 30, 2025 and 2024, the rent was $72,000 and $90,946 respectively. **ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS** As of April 30, 2025, there is no pending litigation against Sparta and any and all prior litigation has been discontinued, settled or otherwise resolved with no liability whatsoever against Sparta. | Page 26 of 62 | | **PART II** **ITEM 5.

We have continued to incur significant expenses and have sustained significant losses. Revenues totaled $235,544 in fiscal 2025 compared to revenues of $192,040 in fiscal 2024. The increase was due to increase in merchant financing revenue. **Cost of Revenue** The cost of revenue consists of costs and fees paid to third parties to construct and maintain mobile apps, as well as fees for subscription services related to vehicle history reports. **Operating Expenses** Operating expenses were $1,432,449 during the year ended April 30, 2025, compared to $1,019,762 during the year ended April 30, 2024, an increase of $412,687, or 40% primarily due to increased compensation and related cost of $88,020 or 15% and consulting fees increasing by $336,270 or 459%. The following are the major expense categories: | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Increase (Decrease) | | | % | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compensation and Related cost | | | 687,956 | | | | 599,936 | | | | 88,020 | | | | 15 | % | | | Accounting and Legal Fees | | | 66,929 | | | | 70,661 | | | | (3,732 | ) | | | (5 | )% | | | Consulting Fees | | | 409,560 | | | | 73,290 | | | | 336,270 | | | | 459 | % | | | Rent and Lease | | | 72,000 | | | | 90,946 | | | | (18,946 | ) | | | (21 | )% | | | General office Expenses | | | 196,004 | | | | 184,929 | | | | 11,075 | | | | 6 | % | | | | | | 1,432,449 | | | | 1,019,762 | | | | 412,687 | | | | 40 | % | | **Other income (expense)** Other income (expenses) for the year ended April 30, 2025, primarily comprised of commission on municipal bonds of $21,837, Interest Expense on notes $(656,809) and Loss in derivative liability $(266,658), while in the fiscal year 2024, comprised primarily of convertible notes written off $180,700, commission on municipal bonds of $17,051 and gain on the value of derivative liabilities of $634,827. **Net Income (Loss)** Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended April 30, 2025, was $2,123,634, compared to a net loss of $644,490 for April 30, 2024. The net loss for the year was primarily due to the decrease of gain on the valuation of derivative liabilities, where the gain in value as of April 30, 2025, was $266,658 compared to the previous years gain in valuation of $634,827. **LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES** As of April 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $68,918,984 and a total stockholders deficit of $11,608,515. Our net cash flow from operations had a negative balance of $1,229,677 for the year ended April 30, 2025. This deficit results primarily from our net loss of $2,114,718, which was increased further by noncash expenses from change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $266,658 and offset by an increase in Accounts payables and accrued expenses $831,552. We met our cash requirements during the period through revenue of $235,544 and proceeds from the sale of common shares $764,571 and proceeds from promissory notes of $525,000. | Page 29 of 62 | | We do not anticipate incurring significant research and development expenditures, and we do not anticipate the sale or acquisition of any significant property, plant or equipment, during the next twelve months. At April 30, 2025, we had 6 full time employees, one part time employee, and 2 full-time consultants. If we fully implement our business plan, we anticipate our employment base may increase during the next twelve months. As we continue to expand, we will incur additional cost for personnel. This potential increase in personnel is dependent upon our generating increased revenues and obtaining sources of financing. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required or generating revenues sufficient to fund the potential increase in the number of employees. Our employees are not represented by a union. While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to meet our current and potential future cash flow deficits from operations. We continue to seek additional financing, which may be in the form of senior debt, subordinated debt or equity. We currently have no commitments for financing that are not at the investors election. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required to support our operations. We estimate that we will need approximately $1,000,000 in addition to our normal operating cash flow to conduct operations during the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that additional private or public financing, including debt or equity financing, will be available as needed, or, if available, on terms favorable to us. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and such additional equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our existing common or preferred stock. Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our operating flexibility. However, if we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, and we will have to adjust our planned operations and development on a more limited scale. The effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant. Our operations are located in North America and there are no seasonal aspects that would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. **AUDITORS OPINION EXPRESSES DOUBT ABOUT THE COMPANYS ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN** The independent auditors report on our April 30, 2025 and 2024 financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report states that the Companys historical losses and the lack of revenues raise substantial doubts about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern due to the losses incurred and its lack of significant operations. If we are unable to develop our business, we have to discontinue operations or cease to exist, which would be detrimental to the value of the Companys common stock. We can make no assurances that our business operations will develop and provide us with significant cash to continue operations. In order to improve the Companys liquidity, the Companys management is actively pursuing additional financing through discussions with investment bankers, financial institutions and private investors. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional financing. We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to develop profitable operations. We are devoting substantially all of our efforts to developing our business and raising capital. Our net operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. **Product Research and Development** We do not anticipate incurring significant research and development expenditures during the next twelve months. | Page 30 of 62 | | **Acquisition or Disposition of Plant and Equipment** We do not anticipate the acquisition or sale of any significant property, plant or equipment during the next twelve months. **Number of Employees** From our inception through the period ended April 30, 2025, we have relied on the services of outside consultants for services and currently have four full-time employees and three part-time employees. In order for us to attract and retain quality personnel, we anticipate we will have to offer competitive salaries to future employees. If we fully implement our business plan, we anticipate our employment base may increase during the next twelve months. As we continue to expand, we will incur additional cost for personnel. This projected increase in personnel is dependent upon our generating revenues and obtaining sources of financing. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required or generating revenues sufficient to fund the projected increase in the number of employees. **Inflation** The impact of inflation on our costs and the ability to pass on cost increases to our customers over time is dependent upon market conditions. We are not aware of any inflationary pressures that have had any significant impact on our operations over the past year, and we do not anticipate that inflationary factors will have a significant impact on future operations. **CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions, we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our financial statements, we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments. **Revenue Recognition** During the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), using the cumulative-effect method. The new standard requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The adoption did not have an impact in our consolidated financial statements, other than the enhancement of our disclosures related to our revenue-generating activities. The Company acts as a principal in its revenue transactions as the Company is the primary obligor in the transactions. Revenues from mobile app products and New World Health Brands products are generally recognized upon delivery. Revenues from History Reports are generally recognized upon delivery / download. Prepayments received from customers before delivery (if any) are recognized as deferred revenue and recognized upon delivery. The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts which are refundable. Information Technology: The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable. The Company acts as a principal in its revenue transactions as the Company is the primary obligor in the transactions. | Page 31 of 62 | | Revenues from mobile app products are generally recognized upon delivery. Revenues from History Reports are generally recognized upon delivery / download. Prepayments received from customers before delivery (if any) are recognized as deferred revenue and recognized upon delivery. New World Health Brands: Revenues from New World Health Brands products are generally recognized upon delivery. **Stock-Based Compensation** The Company adopted *Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 718* (ASC 718-10), which records compensation expense on a straight-line basis, generally over the explicit service period of three to five years. ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Companys Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company is using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of valuation for share-based awards. The Companys determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Companys stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Companys expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk free interest rate. **Inventories** The Companys inventories represent finished goods, consist of products available for sale and are accounted for using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory consists of finished goods for the Companys New World Health Brands business. **Convertible Instruments** The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for *Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities* (ASC 815-40). The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when *Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features*, as those professional standards pertain to Certain Convertible Instruments. Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entitys control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability. **Derivative Liabilities** ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as described. | Page 32 of 62 | | **RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS** Recently adopted accounting pronouncements require public companies to disclose the impact of new standards on their financial statements, including details about the standard, the adoption date, method of adoption, and expected effects. These disclosures help investors understand how changes in accounting principles will affect a companys financial performance and position. **Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.**In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update expand segment disclosure requirements, including new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment among other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this standard is on a modified retrospective basis and had no impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations, cash flows or net income per share. As of 2024 and 2023 the Company had one reporting segment, all revenue is reported under this segment Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. Other accounting standards and amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued and have future effective dates are not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements. **Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements** We do not maintain off-balance sheet arrangements, nor do we participate in non-exchange traded contracts requiring fair value accounting treatment. **ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK** Not applicable. | Page 33 of 62 | | **ITEM 8.

(the Company) as of April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. **Substantial Doubt About the Companys Ability to Continue as a Going Concern** The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficit of $9,569,218., and accumulated deficit of $68,918,984, as of April 30, 2025. And the Company had a working capital deficit of $9,008,519, and accumulated deficit of $66,795,350 as of April 30, 2024. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. **Basis for Opinion** These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial statements based on our audits. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits 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. Our audits 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 our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. | Page 35 of 62 | | **Critical Audit Matter** The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee equivalent and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. **** **Accounting for Embedded Derivative Liabilities Related to Convertible Notes** As described in Notes A and C to the financial statements, the Company had convertible notes that required accounting considerations and significant estimates. The Company determined that variable conversion features issued in connection with certain convertible notes required derivative liability classification. These variable conversion features were initially measured at fair value and subsequently have been remeasured to fair value at each reporting period. The Company determined the fair value of the embedded derivatives using the Binomial Model. We identified the accounting considerations and related valuations, including the related fair value determinations of the embedded derivative liabilities of such as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination were: (1) the accounting consideration in determining the nature of the various features (2) the evaluation of the potential derivatives and potential bifurcation in the instruments, and (3) considerations related to the determination of the fair value of the various debt and equity instruments and the conversion features that include valuation models and assumptions utilized by management. Auditing these elements is especially challenging and requires auditor judgement due to the nature and extent of audit effort required to address these matters, including the extent of specialized skill or knowledge needed. As of April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, the Company recorded derivative liability related to these Convertible Notes of $1,007,598, and $740,940 respectively. Our audit procedures related to managements conclusion on the evaluation and related valuation of embedded derivatives, included the following, among others: (1) evaluating the relevant terms and conditions of the various financings, (2) assessing the appropriateness of conclusions reached by the Company with respect to the accounting for the convertible notes, and the assessment and accounting for potential derivatives and (3) independently recomputing the valuations determined by Management. | Victor Mokuolu,CPA LLC | | | Victor Mokuolu,CPA LLC PCAOB ID: 06771 We have served as Sparta Commercial Services, Inc.s auditor since 2023.

Revenues from merchant financing is recognized monthly based on the outstanding balance of the loans. | | The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by revenue source: SCHEDULE OF DISAGGREGATION REVENUE | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | | | Year Ended April 30, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Information Technology | | $ | 118,266 | | | $ | 166,670 | | | | Wellness products | | | 37,767 | | | | 25,370 | | | | Merchant financing | | | 79,511 | | | | - | | | | Revenues | | $ | 235,544 | | | $ | 192,040 | | | **** **Cash and Cash Equivalents** The Company considers all highly liquid accounts with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, all of the Companys cash was deposited in major banking institutions. There were no cash equivalents as of April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024. Our cash balances at financial institutions may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Companys (FDIC) insured limit of $250,000 from time to time. **Website Development Costs** The Company recognizes website development costs in accordance with ASC 350-50, Accounting for Website Development Costs.*As such, the Company expenses all costs incurred relate to the planning and post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses. **Fair Value Measurements** The Company adopted ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurements* (ASC 820)*.*ASC 820 establishes a three-level 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 the lowest priority to unobservable inputs to fair value measurements of certain assets and Liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below: | | Level 1 Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets. | | | | | | | | Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. | | | Page 43 of 62 | | | | Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value measurements. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques based on significant unobservable inputs, as well as management judgments or estimates that are significant to valuation. | | This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data when available and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. Observable inputs may not always be available for some products or in certain market conditions. **Income Taxes** We utilize ASC 740 *Income Taxes* which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at year-end based on enacted laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. The Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the financial statements only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Our practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. **Stock Based Compensation** We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 *Compensation Stock Compensation* using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entitys equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. We use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options. The stock-based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods. **Inventories** The Companys inventories represent finished goods, consist of products available for sale and are accounted for using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory consists of finished goods for the Companys New World Health Brands business. **Property and Equipment** Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives of major depreciable assets are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT | | | | | | | Leasehold improvements | | 3 years | | | | Furniture and fixtures | | 7 years | | | | Website costs | | 3 years | | | | Computer Equipment | | 5 years | | | | Page 44 of 62 | | **** **Concentrations of Credit Risk** Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high quality credit institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. **Net Loss Per Share** The Company uses ASC 260-10, *Earnings Per Share,* for calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company has 33,612,875 and 33,395,883 shares of common classified as to be issued at April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, respectively included on the balance sheet were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would reduce net loss per share. **Derivative Liabilities** The Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial instruments as of April 30, 2025, and 2024, which consist of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the Companys common stock, and determined that such derivatives meet the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815. ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as described. The Company determined the fair value of the derivative liabilities of convertible notes using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions, market value of common stock on measurement date, risk free interest rate, expected volatility, expected dividend yields and instrument lives in years. The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. | Page 45 of 62 | | **** **Reclassifications** Certain amounts for the prior year have been revised or reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, including the presentation of Preferred stock C, Preferred stock D and previously included in Additional paid-in-capital. No change in net loss resulted from these reclassifications. **Recent Accounting Pronouncements** Recently adopted accounting pronouncements require public companies to disclose the impact of new standards on their financial statements, including details about the standard, the adoption date, method of adoption, and expected effects.These disclosures help investors understand how changes in accounting principles will affect a companys financial performance and position. **Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.**In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update expand segment disclosure requirements, including new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment among other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods withinfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this standard is on a modified retrospective basis and had no impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations, cash flows or net income per share. As of 2024 and 2023 the Company had one reporting segment, all revenue is reported under this segment Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. Other accounting standards and amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued and have future effective dates are not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements. | Page 46 of 62 | | **NOTE B GOING CONCERN MATTERS** The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements show that the Company has incurred recurring losses and generated negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. As of April 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $68,918,984 and a working capital deficit (total current liabilities exceeded total current assets) of $9,569,218. As of April 30, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $66,795,350 and a working capital deficit of $9,008,519. The Companys cash balance and revenues generated are not currently sufficient and cannot be projected to cover its operating expenses for the next twelve months from the filing date of this report. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The Companys existence is dependent upon managements ability to develop profitable operations. Management is devoting substantially all its efforts to developing its business and raising capital and there can be no assurance that the Companys efforts will be successful. No assurance can be given that managements actions will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its liquidity problems. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. To improve the Companys liquidity, the Companys management is actively pursuing additional equity financing through discussions with investment bankers, private equity groups, and private investors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional equity financing. **NOTE C NOTES PAYABLE AND DERIVATIVES** The Company has outstanding numerous notes payable to various parties. The notes bear interest at rates of 5% - 20% per year and are summarized as follows: SCHEDULE OF NOTES PAYABLE | Notes Payable | | April 30, 2025 | | | April 30, 2024 | | | | Notes convertible at holders option | | $ | 2,667,644 | | | $ | 2,723,197 | | | | Notes convertible at Companys option | | | 335,700 | | | | 335,700 | | | | Non-convertible notes payable | | | 3,063,011 | | | | 2,399,221 | | | | Accrued interest | | | 1,907,405 | | | | 1,710,363 | | | | Notes payable current | | | 7,973,760 | | | | 7,168,481 | | | | Add non-current portion | | | 396,614 | | | | - | | | | Total | | $ | 8,370,374 | | | $ | 7,168,481 | | | Certain notes payable contains variable conversion rates, and the conversion features are classified as derivative liabilities. The conversion prices are based on the market price of the Companys common stock, at discounts of 40% to market value. | Page 47 of 62 | | The Companys derivative financial instruments are embedded derivatives related to the outstanding short-term Convertible Notes Payable. These embedded derivatives included certain conversion features indexed to the Companys common stock. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the derivatives and related items at their fair values as of the inception date of the Convertible Notes Payable and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. In addition, under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging; Contracts in Entitys Own Equity (ASC 815- 40), as a result of entering into the Convertible Notes Payable, the Company is required to classify all other non-employee stock options and warrants as derivative liabilities and mark them to market at each reporting date. Any change in fair value, including modifications of terms, will be recorded as non-operating, non-cash income, or expense at each reporting date. If the fair value of the derivatives is higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the products is lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record non-operating, non-cash income. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities of convertible notes outstanding at April 30, 2025, and 2024 was calculated with the following average assumptions, using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows: SCHEDULE OF DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES ASSUMPTIONS USING BLACK-SCHOLES OPTION | Significant Assumptions: | | | | | | Risk free interest rate | | | 3.6 | % | | | Expected stock price volatility | | | 144 | % | | | Expected dividend payout | | | 0 | | | | Expected options life in years | | | 2 years | | | Changes in derivative liability during the years ended April 30, 2025, and 2024 were: SCHEDULE OF CHANGES IN DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | | | April 30, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Balance, beginning of year | | $ | 740,940 | | | $ | 1,375,767 | | | | Balance | | $ | 740,940 | | | $ | 1,375,767 | | | | Derivative liability reclassified to additional paid in capital | | | - | | | | - | | | | Derivative financial liability arising on the conversion of notes and warrants | | | - | | | | (241,391 | ) | | | Fair value adjustments | | | 266,658 | | | | (393,436 | ) | | | Balance, end of year | | $ | 1,007,598 | | | $ | 740,940 | | | | Balance | | $ | 1,007,598 | | | $ | 740,940 | | | **** **NOTE D LOANS PAYABLE TO RELATED PARTIES** As of April 30, 2025, and 2024, aggregated loans payable to related parties and, without demand to officers and directors were $636,233 and $637,077 respectively. **NOTE E** **EQUITY TRANSACTIONS** **Common Stock** The Company is authorized to issue 750,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. On December 30, 2020, Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. (the Company) filed with the Secretary of State of the state of Nevada, a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the Amendment). The Amendment was effective as of December 30, 2020. On July 9, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company declared July 30, 2020 as the effective date for the 1 for 100 reverse stock split (the Reverse Stock Split), previously approved by the stockholders of the Company by written consent in accordance with the information contained in the Schedule 14C Information Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 9, 2020. FINRA reviewed and authorized the corporate action changing the effective date to December 30, 2020 (the Effective Date). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every one hundred shares of outstanding common stock was automatically be converted into one share of the Companys common stock immediately prior to the opening of trading on the next business day after the Effective Date. If, as a result of the reverse split, a stockholder was left with a fractional share, that stockholder received one full share in lieu of such fractional share. Immediately after the effectiveness of the reverse split, there were 7,027,930 shares of the Companys common stock issued and outstanding. The aggregate number of shares of common stock that the Company is authorized to issue remained the same and was unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split. All outstanding stock options and other contractual rights including the preferred stock entitling the holders of such rights to acquire shares of common stock outstanding at the Effective Date will be appropriately adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split. The Company is authorized to issue 750,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. The Company had 40,133,669 and 29,495,189 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, respectively. The Company had 33,612,875 and 33,395,883 shares of common classified as to be issued at April 30, 2025, and April 30, 2024, respectively.

During the year ended April 30, 2025, the Company: | | | Converted 12,000 Series C preferred shares to 36,000 shares of common stock | | | | | Converted 30,000 Series D preferred shares to 120,000 shares of common stock | | During the year ended April 30, 2024, the Company: | | | Converted 20,000 Series C preferred shares to 767,578 shares of common stock | | | | | Converted 134,206 Series D preferred shares to 536,824 shares of common stock | | As of April 30, 2025, and 2024 the Company had: SCHEDULE OF PREFERRED STOCK OUTSTANDING SHARES | Preferred stock outstanding shares | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Series A | | | 125 | | | | 125 | | | | Series B | | | - | | | | - | | | | Series C | | | 1,953,157 | | | | 1,965,157 | | | | Series D | | | 773,548 | | | | 803,548 | | | | Preferred stock outstanding shares | | | 773,548 | | | | 803,548 | | | **NOTE F FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS** The Company follows the guidance established pursuant to ASC 820 which established a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., 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 requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Level 3, unobservable inputs when there is little or no market data available, thereby requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions was used. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities of convertible notes outstanding at April 30, 2025, and 2024 was calculated with the following average assumptions, using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows: SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE ASSUMPTIONS | Significant Assumptions: | | | | | | Risk free interest rate | | | Ranging from 3.6 % to 3.85 | % | | | Expected stock price volatility | | | Ranging from 136% to 198 | % | | | Expected dividend payout | | | 0 | | | | Expected options life in years | | | Ranging from 1-2 years | | | | Page 49 of 62 | | The table below summarizes the fair values of financial liabilities as of April 30, 2025: SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES | | | Fair Value at | | | Fair Value Measurement Using | | | | | | April 30, 2025 | | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | | Derivative liabilities | | $ | 1,007,598 | | | | - | | | | - | | | $ | 1,007,598 | | | Fair values of financial liabilities as of April 30, 2024 are as follows: | | | Fair Value at | | | Fair Value Measurement Using | | | | | | April 30, 2024 | | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | | Derivative liabilities | | $ | 740,940 | | | | - | | | | - | | | $ | 740,940 | | | The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for these items: *Derivative liabilities* these instruments consist of certain variable conversion features related to notes payable obligations and certain outstanding warrants. These instruments were valued using pricing models which incorporate the Companys stock price, volatility, U.S. risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life. The Company did not identify any other non-recurring assets and liabilities that are required to be presented in the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 825 The Fair Value Option for Financial Issuances. **NOTE G - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT** Major classes of property and equipment at April 30, 2025, and 2024 consist of the followings: SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Computer equipment, software and furniture | | $ | 213,262 | | | $ | 213,262 | | | | Less: accumulated depreciation | | | (213,262 | ) | | | (213,262 | ) | | | Net property and equipment | | $ | - | | | $ | - | | | All equipment is fully depreciated as of the fiscal year end April 30, 2025, and 2024. No additional investment in equipment for both fiscal years. **NOTE H WARRANTS AND STOCK OPTIONS:** As of April 30, 2025, a total of 14,937,705 stock options were vested. The computed fair value was $546,812. | Page 50 of 62 | | **NOTE I LOANS RECEIVABLE** **** The Company has outstanding loan receivables from short-term lines of credit extended to merchants. These receivables are measured at amortized cost and include an allowance for credit losses based on expected credit loss models. Management assessed that the receivables are subject to minimal credit risk because the lines of credit are secured by liens on merchant assets. Consequently, there is $0 allowance for credit losses as of April 30, 2025, reflecting managements assessment of the collectability of these loans. The Company monitors economic and regulatory developments that could impact the valuation and recoverability of the receivables. **NOTE J - INCOME TAXES** At April 30, 2025, the Company has available for federal income tax purposes a net operating loss-carry forward of approximately $65,434,872 that may be used to offset future taxable income and expiring through the tax year 2036, subject to certain limitation pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, since in the opinion of management based upon the earnings history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized. A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the Companys effective income tax rate is as follows: SCHEDULE OF RECONCILIATION OF INCOME TAX RATE | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | | | Years Ended April 30, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Federal statutory income tax rate | | | (21.0 | )% | | | (21.0 | )% | | | State income taxes, net of federal benefit | | | (7.1 | ) | | | (7.1 | ) | | | Permanent differences | | | 6.7 | | | | 6.7 | | | | Change in valuation allowance | | | 21.4 | | | | 21.4 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provision for income taxes | | | 0.0 | % | | | 0.0 | % | | Components of deferred tax assets as of April 30, 2025, and estimated 2024 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | | | April 30, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Noncurrent: | | | | | | | | | | | Net operating loss-carry forward | | $ | 14,008,164 | | | $ | 13,612,679 | | | | Valuation allowance | | | (14,008,164 | ) | | | (13,612,679 | ) | | | Net deferred tax asset | | $ | - | | | $ | - | | | The difference between the income tax expense of zero shown in the statement of operations and pre-tax book net loss times the change in valuation rate of 21.4% in table above is due to the change in the valuation allowance. **NOTE K - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** **Operating Lease Commitments** Our executive offices are located in New York, NY. We have an agreement for use of office space at this location under a sublease which expired on July 31, 2018, and continues on a month-to-month basis thereafter. The monthly base rent is $6,000. Rent expense was $72,000 and $90,946 for the years ended April 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. **Employment and Consulting Agreements** The Company does not have employment agreements with any of its non-executive employees. The Company has consulting agreements with outside contractors to provide marketing and financial advisory services. The agreements are generally for 12 months from inception and renewable automatically from year to year unless the Company or consultant terminates such engagement by written notice. The Company entered into five-year employment agreements with its CEO, Anthony L Havens and Vice President of Operations, Sandra L Ahman. As part of their employment agreements, Mr. Havens received five year options to purchase 376,256 shares of the Companys common stock at $0.308 per share. The options vest in three equal tranches over three years. Ms. Ahman received five year options to purchase 125,419 shares of the Companys common stock at $0.308 per share. The options vest in three equal tranches over three years. **Litigation** The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims arising in its businesss ordinary course. Sparta can make no representations about the potential outcome of such proceedings. As of April 30, 2025, there is no pending litigation against Sparta and any and all prior litigation has been discontinued, settled or otherwise resolved with no liability whatsoever against Sparta. **NOTE L SUBSEQUENT EVENTS** The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure as of the date the financial statements were available to be issued. No other matters were identified affecting the accompanying financial statements and related disclosures. Subsequent to April 30, 2025, the Company: | | | Issued 781,986 shares valued at $60,000 to accredited investors related to equity investments. | | | | | Issued 450,000 shares valued at $54,435 for consulting services. | | | | | Issued 136,009 shares valued at $19,985 for the extinguishment of debt. | | | Page 51 of 62 | | **** **ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE** **Engagement of New Certifying Accountant** On December 5, 2022 Victor Mokuolu, CPA (VMCPA) was engaged as the Registrants independent auditors, commencing with the financials for the quarter October 31, 2022. During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim period preceding the engagement of VMCPA, Registrant had not consulted with VMCPA regarding either: | i. | the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Registrants financial statements, and either a written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by VMCPA that VMCPA concluded was an important factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or | | | | | | | ii. | any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event identified in response to paragraph (a) (1) (iv) of Item 304, as those terms are used in Item 304 (a) (1) (iv) of Regulations S-B and S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulations S-B and S-K. | | **ITEM 9.01 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS** **(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired.**N/A **ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES** **Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures** We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2025. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and considering the material weaknesses found in our internal controls, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. | Page 52 of 62 | | **Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting** Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2025, using the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the companys financial reporting. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2023, we determined that control deficiencies existed that constituted material weaknesses, as described below: | | lack of documented policies and procedures; | | | | we have no audit committee; | | | | there is a risk of management override given that our officers have a high degree of involvement in our day-to-day operations; | | | | there is no effective separation of duties, which includes monitoring controls, between the members of management. | | Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. As a result, we have not been able to take steps to improve our internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended April 30, 2024. However, to the extent possible, we will implement procedures to assure that the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be performed by separate individuals. Management is currently evaluating what steps can be taken in order to address these material weaknesses. Accordingly, we concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by our internal controls. As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2025 based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by COSO. In light of these significant deficiencies, we performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2025 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K were fairly stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that despite our significant deficiency, our consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2025 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit a smaller reporting company to provide only managements report in its annual report. **Changes in Internal Controls** During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. **ITEM 9B.

None of our directors or officers serves or has served during the past five years as a director of another reporting company or a registered investment company. Based solely in reliance on representations made by our officers and directors, during the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to such persons: no petition under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law was filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer was appointed by a court for the business or property of such persons, or any partnership in which he or she was a general partner or any corporation or business association of which he or she was an executive officer at or within two years before the time of such filing; no such persons were convicted in a criminal proceeding or are a named subject of a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); no such persons were the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of any competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, or of any federal or state authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, their involvement in any type of business practice, or in securities or banking or other financial institution activities; and no such persons were found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Securities and Exchange Commission or by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated any federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated. The number of directors shall be between two (2) and ten (10). The number of directors shall be set by the then current members of the Board of Directors. The size of the Board of Directors is four (4). A director need not be a stockholder. In the case of a vacancy as a result in an increase in the number of directors, the Board of Directors shall fill such vacancy at a special meeting thereof. In seeking candidates for directors, our Board may use their business, professional and personal contacts; accept the recommendations from other Board members, stockholders or management. Current members of the Board are considered for re-election. The process for evaluating candidates and the manner of evaluation is the same regardless of the category of person recommending the proposed candidate. The Board considers business experience, mix of skills and other criteria and qualities appropriate for Board membership, including: intelligence, high personal and professional ethics, values, integrity and sound judgment; education; business and professional skills and experience; familiarity with our business and the industry in general; independence from management; ability to devote sufficient time to Board business; commitment to regularly attend and participate in meetings of our Board and its committees; and concern for the long-term interests of the stockholders. While such factors important in evaluating candidates, we do not impose any specific, minimum qualifications for director nominees. Our Board of Directors does not currently maintain a separately designated standing audit, nominating, or compensation committee, or other similar committee, of the Board of Directors, and we do not have audit, nominating, or compensation committee, or other similar charter. Functions customarily performed by such committees are performed by our Board as a whole as our operations have been limited and we have had a small number of officers and a small number of directors since inception. We are not required to maintain such committees under the applicable rules of the OTC Bulletin Board. None of our directors qualifies as an audit committee financial expert. As all of our Board members are officers or nominees of a substantial stockholder who may not be deemed independent, we have not established separate Board committees. The Board of Directors has not adopted a specific process with respect to security holder communications, but security holders wishing to communicate with the Board of Directors may do so by mailing such communications to the Board of Directors at our offices. **Code of Ethics** We have adopted a code of ethics, as defined by the SEC, which applies to all our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions. | Page 55 of 62 | | **** **Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance** Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires Spartas executive officers, directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of Spartas common stock to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of Spartas common stock. Such persons are also required by Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish Sparta with copies of all such Section 16(a) forms filed by such person. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to Sparta in connection with the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, Sparta is not aware of any material delinquencies in the filing of such reports. **ITEM 11.
