**PART I**
**Item 1. BUSINESS**
**Company History and Background.**
Focus Universal Inc. (the Company,
we, us, or our) is a Nevada corporation. We are based in the city of Ontario, California, and
were incorporated in Nevada in 2012. In December of 2013, we filed an S-1 registration statement that went effective on March 14, 2014.
From March 14, 2014, through August 30, 2021, our securities traded on the OTCQB Market. From August 31, 2021, through January 27, 2022,
our securities traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. From January 28, 2022, to September 22, 2024, our securities traded on the Nasdaq
Global Market. On September 23, 2024, our securities were transferred for trading to the Nasdaq Capital Market. We hold 28 patents and
patents pending in various phases of the patent process.
We operate through multiple subsidiaries, including
Perfecular Inc. (Perfecular), AVX Design and Integration, Inc. (AVX)
also doing business as Smart AVX, Focus Universal (Shenzhen) Technology Company LTD (Focus Shenzhen), and Lusher, Inc. (Lusher).
Perfecular Inc. was founded in September 2009,
is headquartered in Ontario, California, and is engaged in designing certain digital sensor products, and sells a broad selection of horticultural
sensors and filters in North America and Europe.
AVX, incorporated on June 16, 2000, in the state
of California, is an IoT installation and management company specializing in high performance and easy to use audio/video systems, home
theaters, lighting control, automation and integration systems for houses, apartments, commercial complexes, and office spaces. AVX also
markets and sells our internet of things (IoT) products, such as high-end LED, and live wall panel products and cameras, under the Smart
AVX name.
On December 23, 2021, we founded Focus Shenzhen
in China for manufacturing procurement expertise and to support research and development activities. Focus Shenzhen is designed to function
as a branch office accessing high level research and development support, and the ability to source products and build relationships with
Chinese manufacturers.
On April 30, 2024, we founded Lusher Inc. to develop,
market, and commercialize an automation financial reporting software called One Touch Financial.
In August of 2024, we decided to discontinue the
operations of one of our subsidiaries AT Tech Systems LLC (AT Tech). AT Tech specialized in commercial and industrial smart
IoT installation projects in areas throughout Southern California.
On November 29, 2024, we held our 2024 annual
shareholders meeting, and the shareholders approved of an amendment to the Companys Articles of Incorporation to increase the number
of authorized shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Common Stock), from 75,000,000
to 150,000,000.
On January 28, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate
Change pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 78.209 with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a 1-for-10
reverse stock split of the Companys (i) authorized Common Stock shares and (ii) issued and outstanding Common Stock shares. The
reverse stock split became effective on January 31, 2025. All shares of Common Stock, options, warrants and securities convertible or
exercisable into Common Stock have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to this reverse stock split for all periods presented. As
a result of the reverse split, the Company was authorized to issue 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
On September 8, 2025, the Company filed its Second
Amendment and Restatement to its Articles of Incorporation to increase the total number of its authorized capital stock to 30,000,000
shares with 25,000,000 shares designated as Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares designated as preferred stock.
On October 20, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate
of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock (the Series B Designation) that had the effect of designating 15,000 shares of
its 5,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.
On October 21, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate
of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock (the Series A Designation) that had the effect of designating 1,000,000 shares
of its 5,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock.
On November 17, 2025, the Company increased the
total number of authorized capital stock from 30,000,000 shares to 1,100,000,000 shares and designated 1,000,000,000 shares as Common
Stock and designated 100,000,000 shares as preferred stock by filing a Third Amendment and Restatement to the Articles of Incorporation.
On December 5, 2025, the Company filed an amendment
and restatement to the Series B Designation (the Amended Series B Designation) that provided for (i) a fixed floor price,
adjusted in the event if reverse splits and/or subdivisions, (ii) the method of calculating the conversion price in the event of a reverse
splits and/or subdivisions and (iii) grant of redemption rights to the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.
| | 1 | | |
On February 9, 2026, the Company effected a reverse
stock split of its outstanding common stock on a 1-for-10 basis. No adjustment was made to the Companys authorized shares of capital
stock. As such, the Companys authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 100,000,000 shares of
preferred stock with 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock designated as Series A Preferred Stock and 15,000 shares of preferred stock designated
as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.
Our principal executive offices are located at
1515 W Cameron Avenue, Ste. 210, West Covina, CA 91790. Our telephone number is (626) 272-3883, and our website is www.focusuniversal.com.
Our website and the information contained therein, or connected thereto, are not intended to be incorporated into this Annual Report.
Our current focus is on commercializing our universal
smart technology and financial reporting software. We plan to utilize our universal smart technology for smart meters and automation systems,
which will be incorporated into IoT devices. To generate revenues, we will focus on product development, technological upgrades, technical
service and customer data collection. We believe this technology has applications in several industries and have completed the development
of a system for horticulture applications. Our financial reporting software is an artificial intelligence (AI) enabled software designed
to aid accounting professional with the preparation of reports based on financial statements, such reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K.
We intend to commercialize this product under a software as a service (SaaS) model.
Other than our financial reporting software, the
technologies, products and services that we have developed, and are currently developing, we believe will have significant applications
in the IoT industry. The IoT refers to the overarching network created by billions of internet-compatible devices and machines that share
data and information worldwide. As the sophistication of both hardware and software in the consumer electronics industry skyrockets, an
increasing share of the electronic devices produced around the world are manufactured with internet connectivity. Forecasts suggest that
by 2030, around 50 billion of these IoT devices will be in use worldwide, creating a massive web of interconnected devices spanning everything
from smartphones to kitchen appliances. We believe that IoT will soon reach a critical limit; we do not have enough human labor and natural
resources to support its growth. Fifty billion IoT devices will challenge existing resources. To address these challenges, we have segmented
our operations and developed the technologies and products described below.
In addition to our universal smart technology
and financial reporting software, we are current researching and developing the following:
**
*Device on a Chip*
We have developed an innovative device
on a chip (DoC) technology, which combines the required electronic circuits of various integrated circuit components
onto a single, integrated chip (IC). Our DoC technology works as a single component but is capable of handling entire IoT
device functions (excluding sensors and architecture-specific components). Our DoC technology includes both the hardware and software,
and decreases the number of interconnections between components. We believe that incorporating our DoC technology into our product offering,
will simplify the manufacturing process, lowering our costs and allowing us to achieve a fast time-to-market. Our planned DoC technology
allows devices to achieve interoperability with one another and to be interchangeable, both features where traditional IoT devices fall
short.
Our research and development suggest that the
existing IC integration in IoT devices is mainly focused on hardware-to-hardware integration, not incorporating software solutions. This
lack of incorporating software under a common operating system, application software, and extra interface into ICs, limits IC integration
to the component level. Software is a critical component in electronics, and the more tightly integrated the software, the better the
power and performance. Software also adds an element of flexibility and allows multiple discrete ICs to be integrated into a single IC.

5G Ultra-narrowband Technology*
**
Fifth generation (5G) telecommunications
networks are expected to revolutionize the digital economy by enabling new applications that depend on ultra-fast communications on an
industrial scale. 5G promises to deliver an improved end-user experience by offering new applications and services through gigabit speeds
and significantly improved performance and reliability. A World Economic Forum report stated that by 2035 5G networks would contribute
$13.2 trillion in economic value globally and generate 22.3 million jobs in the 5G global value chain from direct network investments
and residual services. 5G networks and their related applications are expected to add three million jobs and $1.2 trillion to the economy
in the U.S.
Though 5G offers a significant increase in speed
and bandwidth over previous generation telecommunication networks, its more limited range for high-speed internet will require further
infrastructure investments. A 5G network requires spectrum across low, mid, and high spectrum bands to deliver widespread coverage and
support a wide range of use cases.
*
High band, mmWave spectrum is used primarily
for urban and dense urban markets. The characteristics of high band, mmWave spectrum is that it is very wide and provides a significant
increase in capacity. Because of the greater spectrum width, speed is increased, and transmission latency is reduced. However, the drawback
is that high-band spectrum does not propagate over a large coverage area. For example, a 28 GHz mmWave spectrum can only travel 500 feet.
Low-band frequencies can travel long distances
and penetrate buildings but can only carry a limited amount of data. High-band frequencies can carry a substantial amount of data, but
due to their shorter wavelength, they travel shorter distances and are more susceptible to buildings and trees blocking the signal.
Unlike 4G LTE, which operates on established frequency
bands below 6GHz, 5G requires frequencies up to 300GHz. Wireless carriers still need to bid for the costly higher spectrum bands, as they
build and roll out their respective 5G networks. Adding the hardware required for 5G networks can significantly increase operating expenses.
According to THALES, total global spending on 5G is set to reach $620 billion by 2025.
A typical 5G base station consumes up to twice
or more power than a 4G base station. Energy costs increase at higher frequencies due to a need for more antennas and a denser layer of
small cells. Edge computing facilities needed to support local processing and new IoT services will also add to overall network power
usage.
Our ultra-narrowband (UNB) wireless communication
5G+ technology aims to achieve **both** low band 5G coverage and 1 Gbps high-band speed because we employ an ultra-narrow spectrum
channel (<1kHz) to establish an ultra-long-distance link between the 5G base station and the receiver.
| | 3 | | |
UNB allows for long-range coverage, making it
an optimal low-power wide-area network solution for industrial IoT systems. Additionally, its ultra-high power spectral density creates
endurance against interference and jamming, which enables the friendly coexistence of UNB on shared frequency bands. The narrower the
bandwidth, the fewer occurrences of noise and interference entering the bandwidth. In addition, UNBs transmission of energy concentrates
on ultra-narrowband width, resulting in a very high concentration of power in a very narrow frequency band.
Figure 4. Comparison between Ultra-Narrowband
and Broadband
We developed an ultra-narrowband technology that
offers a potential alternative and/or complementary solution to the broadband technology used in 5G networks and meets the challenging
5G demands. A comparison of our ultra-narrowband technology with 4G and 5G is illustrated in the table below:

As shown by the above table, our internal testing
shows that our finished ultra-narrowband technology can achieve speeds of 4 Mbps per second at a bandwidth of less than 1000 Hz. The spectral
efficiency of our finished technology has reached 4000 bits/sec/Hz. Development work of our ultra-narrowband technology is underway for
speeds of 64 Mbps at a bandwidth of 64 MHz with spectral efficiency of over 4000 bits/sec/Hz.
Our internal testing suggests that a single 5G+
subcarrier wave has the potential to provide speeds of 64 to 256 Mbps. Moreover, multiple UNB subcarriers may be combined, which effectively
increases bandwidth. Given anticipated data rates of 64 Mbps, we believe only 4 to 16 5G+ subcarrier waves would be needed to achieve
the current 5G speeds, and just 40 to 160 5G+ subcarrier waves would be needed to achieve 6G speeds. By contrast, 5G technology requires
3,276 subcarrier waves to achieve its current speeds. Fewer subcarriers translate into cost savings because they are more compact and
consume less energy. Our goal is to increase the speed of 5G networks while simultaneously reducing the number of subcarriers.
Our internal testing suggests that to achieve
speeds of 1 Gbps, our 5G+ technology would only require bandwidths of 4 to 16 kHz, which is narrow enough to be operated in lower frequency
spectrums. This would mean that 5G+ providers would not need to purchase the higher frequency spectrums required by 5G technology. Accordingly,
a 5G+ provider would realize significant savings from not having to bid for costly higher spectrum band licenses. Operating in relatively
lower frequency spectrum bands, when compared to 5G, also means that 5G+ would have a more extensive coverage area than that of 5G, in
many cases three to ten times larger. It would also mean that we could reduce the number of subcarriers and reduce the overall costs of
the 5G networks infrastructure.

Ultra-narrowband Power Line Communication (PLC) Technology*
Our patented PLC is innovative communication technology
that enables sending data over existing power cables in the electric grid. Because PLC uses the existing power lines, it does not require
substantial new investment for a dedicated wiring infrastructure. Existing power lines already form a distribution network that penetrates
every residential, commercial, and industrial property. This makes PLC the most cost-effective, scalable interconnectivity approach for
the backbone communication infrastructure required for IoT. PLC allows IoT devices to be plugged into power outlets to establish a connection
using the existing electrical wiring, permitting data sharing without the substantial investment and inconvenience of running dedicated
network cables.
The power line network was not originally designed
to function as a communication channel. The harsh electrical noise present on power lines and variations in equipment and standards make
communications over the power grid difficult and present several challenges for data transfer. Signals propagating along the power line
are subjected to substantial amounts of noise, attenuation, and distortion. This is why previous attempts at implementing PLC technology
resulted in power companies and internet service providers deciding that the technology is not a viable means of delivering data or broadband
internet access.
We have successfully developed ultra-narrowband
PLC technology that can transfer data through the power grid. According to our internal testing, our ultra-narrowband PLC technology can
send and receive data without the customary interference that occurs in standard office and residential environments, achieving speeds
of 4 Mbps at a bandwidth of less than 1000 Hz. To test noise interference and disturbance, we utilized six industrial blowers simultaneously
when testing, and no significant interference was found. By comparison, a single hair dryer will render our competitors legacy
PLC technology completely useless. We have completed the development of our 4Mbps PLC modules and the printed circuit board layout. These
modules will be used for IoT systems involving over 1,000 sensors.
*Natural Integrated Programming Language (NIPL)*
We have developed a patented user interface
machine auto generation platform (UIMAGP) to replace manual software design. This platform is used to build IoT user
interfaces. The natural integrated programming language we have developed is like the language humans use to communicate with each other,
which makes it is easy for humans to learn, while still being understood by a machine. The UIMAGP simplifies the process of software programming
by saving hundreds of lines of code into a micro code that can be saved to a sensor module. When that sensor module is plugged into a
universal smart instrumentations platform (USIP), the user interface specification codes saved to the sensor module is sent to the platform
and a universal display, such as a smartphone, a computer, or a display unit. The UIMAGP saved on the universal display automatically
generates the user interface within milliseconds. An embedded coding hardware engineer can design sensor module hardware and provide the
user interface specification code achieving the hardware-defining software.
The UIMAGP and user interface specification codes
work collectively to perform the function of traditional customized software, enabling UIMAGP to be shared by the estimated 20 billion
IoT devices worldwide,[7][8] a feat that to our knowledge, current manual software designs have not been able not achieve.
*Universal Smart Instrumentation Hardware and Software Platform (USIP)*
USIP is an advanced hardware and software integrated
instrumentation platform with a large-scale modular design approach. USIP integrates technologies, including cloud technology, wired and
wireless communication technology, software programming, instrumentation technology, artificial intelligence, PLC, sensor networking,
and IoT technology into a single platform. This results in circuit designs that we believe are vastly cheaper and faster than those constructed
of discrete integrated circuit components designed from scratch.
USIP has primary functionalities and an open architecture
capable of incorporating a variety of individual instruments, functions, sensors, and probes from different industries and vendors into
a single unit. With USIP, Instruments, sensors, or probes ranging from a few to several hundred or even thousands in any combination from
various industries and vendors can share or reuse the same platform. Adding, removing, or changing instruments or sensors is all the platform
requires to switch from one type of device to another without revising the software and redesigning the hardware. We believe our USIP
will revolutionize the field of instrumentation, measurement, control, and automation.
| | 5 | | |
The development of USIP is closely associated
with the development and proliferation of computers and mobile devices that provide the foundation and technical support to the universal
smart instrument such as an attractive graphical user touch screen interface, data processing and analysis capabilities, video and audio,
cameras, GPS, ubiquitous wireless connectivity, artificial intelligence, cloud-based communications and a diverse number of functions
and software available to users that are not contained in traditional instruments. These features embody the advantages of USIP, which
are lacking in stand-alone instrument systems. When compared with traditional instrument systems, USIPs biggest advantage is cost
savings. Other distinctive features include universality, interoperability, flexibility, compatibility, upgradeability, expandability,
scalability, security, modularity, fast prototyping, reducing inventory, plug-and-play operation, remote accessibility, simplification,
standardization, and cloud instrumentation.
We subdivide instruments into a reusable foundation
component to the maximum extent possible, architecture-specific components, and sensor modules, which perform traditional instruments
functions at a fraction of their cost. For most instruments, 90% of the design, parts, and firmware are the same. These parts can be replaced
by USIP.
USIP utilizes a computer or a mobile device as
its display and control to communicate with a group of sensors, instruments, probes, or controllers manufactured by different vendors
in a manner that requires the user to have little or no knowledge of their unique characteristics.
The portable version of USIP, is a universal device
called Ubiquitor, is illustrated below. When a blood pressure sensor is plugged into the Ubiquitor, the user interface specification code
saved on the blood pressure sensor is sent to the Ubiquitor, and a computer or smartphone will then generate the user interface for the
blood pressure device based on the interface specification code saved in the sensor.
*
Figure 5. A blood pressure sensor is
connected to our universal device, which we call the Ubiquitor, and changes our device into a blood pressure measurement instrument.
| | 6 | | |
Similarly, if we remove the blood pressure sensor
and connect our Ubiquitor to both a pH sensor and a CO2 sensor, the Ubiquitor changes to a two-sensor device capable of measuring pH and
CO2 concentration. Each sensor has its own user interface automatically generated based on the user interface specification code saved
in each sensor.
Figure 6. A pH sensor and a CO2 sensor
are connected to our universal device, and our device changes into a two-sensor device. A computer or smartphone can also be used for
display.
As illustrated below, when a light sensor is also
plugged into our Ubiquitor using a three-way splitter, the Ubiquitor becomes a three-sensor device.
Figure 7. A pH sensor, a CO2 sensor,
and a light sensor are connected to the Ubiquitor , and the device changes into a three-sensor device. A computer or smartphone can also
be used for display.
As illustrated in Figure 8, the Ubiquitor can
connect any number of sensors in any combination.
Figure 8. Any number of sensors in any
combination can be connected to the Ubiquitor and changed it into a multiple sensor device. A computer or smartphone can also be used
for the display.
| | 7 | | |
The Ubiquitor is a handheld, fully modular system
with a universal sensor node and gateway system that uses a smartphone as the output display module that displays the readings of various
probe modules. We implemented our Ubiquitor in the configuration pictured in Figure 9. This configuration demonstrates that the Ubiquitor
simultaneously controls 27 light sensors, 21 pH sensors, and 23 temperature humidity sensors (which have 23 temperature sensors and 23
humidity sensors), representing one device controlling a total of 72 devices and 95 sensors. Our Ubiquitor also controls two lights in
this configuration, which it can control by turning the lights on or off (including on a schedule) or by using a light sensor to control
the lights output intensity.
Figure 9. Our USIP simultaneously monitors
and controls 72 different devices and 95 sensors.
To illustrate, the entire horticulture industry
has only a few hundred devices from different vendors for various measurement and control purposes. One Ubiquitor and corresponding sensors
or actuators can replace them all at a fraction of the cost. Leveraging the same technical principles discussed above, we can simplify
the smart control and monitoring in this and related industries (including agriculture and aquaculture) with a platform that requires
little design work for interoperability between sensors and control devices.

and control devices.

Device.
All household measurement and control devices,
such as air conditioner controls, swimming pool controls, garage door controls, sprinkler controls, lighting controls, and motorized curtain
controls, can be replaced by a single Ubiquitor and accessories.

all these household control devices.

**Current Product Offering**
In an effort to continually develop our product
lines, we plan to phase out the traditional, lower-margin products and are preparing to launch a new line of products that have been in
development for several years. These newer technology products will be released in phases, and we intend that increasing amounts of technology
will be layered upon these products. Additionally, we plan to continue to increase our efforts in protecting more intellectual property
rights. We have developed products in both the controlled agriculture industry and home automation industries, taking advantage of our
existing relationships in both sectors.
We are building a U.S. sales team to market our
product lines. We have already begun marketing our current Smart AVX-branded large format multimedia touch screens, surveillance camera
system (cameras and network video recorders (NVRs)), indoor and outdoor LED screens, and Focus Universal-branded VOIP phone service systems,
both via our sales staff and the Internet.
Ubiquitor - Universal Smart Device*
**
The initial, simplified version of universal smart
IoT technology is our universal smart device, the Ubiquitor. The Ubiquitors efficient and cost-effective approach to the cost of
connected sensors is illustrated above. The Ubiquitor was first showcased at the Consumer Technology Associations CES 2024 trade
show, which attracted significant interest from potential customers.
*Smart Home Installation*
Our Ubiquitor device will be used to offer residential
customers an entire smart home product line. We have finished designing smart devices for lighting control, air conditioner control, sprinkler
control, garden light control, garage door control, and heating control and are in the process of developing a swimming pool control device,
smoke detector, and carbon monoxide monitor.
| | 10 | | |
We believe smart installation based on the USIP,
and our Ubiquitor together will include more functionalities than the current systems offered by our competitors. It is our goal that
our smart systems would integrate, exchange data, interact and connect utilizing our forthcoming PLC technology. As a result, the installation
process would be simplified, and its costs would be reduced.
The Ubiquitor will be central to our smart installation
systems. The Ubiquitors connectivity capabilities will allow our systems to be expanded and customized in the future.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, should we be unable
to successfully integrate the Ubiquitor into our smart installations, the Ubiquitor will continue to be a flagship product of our Company
that can be applied to various other industrial and commercial purposes.
In addition to the development of the universal
smart IoT platform, Focus Universal has showcased the production model of Ubiqutors and scientific sensors developed by their team. These
sensors include quantum photosynthetic active radiation sensors, TDS sensors, pH sensors, total dissolved oxygen sensors, pressure sensors,
ORP sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, carbon dioxide sensors, water level sensors, chlorine sensors, and turbidity sensors.
These sensors are designed for use in agriculture, aquaculture, and the beverage industry. They are ready for marketing and have garnered
significant interest at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. These sensors can be sold individually with Ubiquitors or bundled together to form an integrated
IoT solution.
*SEC Financial Reporting Software*
Our subsidiaries Perfecular Inc. and Lusher Inc.
are developing and designing a software to streamline SEC financial reporting for financial reporting and tax firms, which we named, One
Touch Financial. Currently, we have completed the SEC financial reporting software in a Microsoft Word format. Our team is focused on
streamlining the entire SEC financial reporting process for SEC attorneys, PCAOB accounting firms, and other financial reporting professionals.
Our goal is that with a single click, our software automatically retrieves financial data from external accounting systems and generates
consolidated financial statements and SEC reports in WORD, PDF, HTML, and XBRL formatsall within just a few minutes. Our developers
are trying to completely eliminate human involvement when it comes to manually updating the numbers. This automation is designed to create
an error-free, seamless process. Focus Universal expect to showcase the software to public in 2026.
**Strategy and Marketing Plan**
The Company plans to market the USIP to the industrial
sector first, including key growth industries such as indoor agriculture. Once the technology is established in that industry, the core
technologies of universality and interoperability through a readily available device, such as a mobile device or smartphone, may be ported
to products specifically intended for the consumer and residential markets.
While industrial markets are large, the consumer
and residential markets are even more significant. This two-phase approach will allow for continuous and increasing revenue growth. Moreover,
during the industrial phase of development, the Company will test and refine its products to ensure that they are ready for the consumer
and residential markets.
We will continue to design, manufacture, market,
and distribute our electronic measurement devices, such as temperature humidity meters, digital meters, quantum PAR meters, pH meters,
TDS meters, and CO2 monitors. The universal smart technology has been applied to our existing traditional devices and demonstrated significant
functional improvement and hardware cost savings. We believe hardware cost reductions of up to 90% have been achieved. However, promoting
universal smart technology and universal smart IoT devices to our customers, including traditional instrument manufacturers, will be
the central focus of our future business.
| | 11 | | |
Our goals over the next three years include:
| 
| 
| 
Raise capital to move into full sales and marketing team for our Ubiquitor device and growing product lines; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Partner with manufacturers and promote the adoption of our Ubiquitor device in a USIP; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Acquire a stable market share of the sensor device market; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Continue performing research and development on PLC technology; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Focus on building our smart home offerings so that we can reduce the cost of smart home implementation to expand smart home installation and implementation beyond luxury homes; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
File additional patents to expand our intellectual property portfolio related to the many uses of our Ubiquitor device; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Commercialize our financial reporting software under a SaaS model; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
File patents to protect our PLC technology. | |
To achieve these goals, we intend to focus on the following initiatives:
| 
| 
| 
Position the Ubiquitor device as the industry standard in universal sensor reading technology; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Establish strategic supply chain channels to facilitate efficient production operations; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Communicate the product and service differentiation through direct networking and effective marketing. | |
**Growth Strategy**
*Growth through Mergers and Acquisitions*
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A)
represent a significant part of our growth strategy because M&A can fill business gaps or add key business operations without requiring
us to wait years for marketing and sales cycles to materialize. We have used this growth strategy in our acquisition of AVX, and in the
future intend to continue to use M&A to find and secure opportunities that will either: (i) achieve the objective of growth in our
market segments; or (ii) provide an area of expansion that will add to the Companys products and/or service lines in markets that
we are currently not serving, but could serve if we had the appropriate expertise. The resulting combination of our existing products
and services, new key personnel, and strategic partnerships through M&A will allow us to operate in new markets and provide new offerings
to our existing market.
Acquiring key competitors may allow the addition
of key personnel to our team. These additions may include people with vast industry knowledge, which can act as a catalyst to further
our growth and lead to the development of new products and business lines. We will seek to target synergistic acquisitions in the same
industry, targeting different geographic locations, which will allow us to actively compete on a regional or national scale in the IoT
segment. If we target businesses in the same sector or location, we hope to combine resources to reduce costs, eliminate duplicate facilities
or departments and increase revenue. We believe this strategy will allow for accelerated growth and maximize investor returns.
| | 12 | | |
One of our key strategies to grow through M&A
is to acquire smaller businesses that focus on IoT installation technology (industrial or residential) and in the USIP or PLC industries.
In addition to providing potential adjacent technologies and other useful resources, these businesses also possess important distribution
channels which would allow for distribution of our main products including the Ubiquitor. The company would also consider targets which
would solely allow for distribution channels for our platforms or adjacent products.
*Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
Engineering Consulting and Design Services*
Universal smart technology is new to most electronic
engineers and manufacturers. One way to promote our universal smart technology is to provide direct OEM engineering design consulting
services to potential industrial customers. Direct, on-site consulting will educate our industrial consumers on the many ways our technology
can be implemented in a variety of industrial applications. We believe that we are well positioned to perform product design and engineering
consulting services for future OEM customers. We believe we can operate as a seamless extension of our customers engineering organizations
and add scale, flexibility, and speed to their design processes. Through our engineering consulting services strategy, we intend to become
our customers engineering partner at all stages of their system design cycle so that we may effectively assist them in transforming
ideas into production-ready products and accelerate time to market for our universal smart technology products.
*Technology Licensing*
We may also consider entering into licensing arrangements
with our customers for our technology. We believe that once we educate our industrial consumers, they may want to integrate our universal
smart technology into their own technology through licensing agreements. We believe licensing our intellectual property may provide a
revenue stream with no additional overhead, all while allowing us to retain proprietary ownership and create long-term industrial consumers
who rely on our products. By creating incentives, such as cost incentives, to license our IP rather than design their own technology,
we believe potential customers could save on design costs and create business development opportunities. Licensing may also allow us to
rely on the expertise, capacity, and skill of a licensee to commercialize our IP, which is especially valuable if we lack the infrastructure,
financial resources, and know-how to bring a product to market independently.
****
*Distribution Method*
**
We intend to engage in relationships
predominantly with standard U.S. component manufacturers and similar electronics providers for the manufacturing of unassembled
parts of the Ubiquitor and its sensor nodes, and to then ship such parts to our Ontario, California facility where we assemble the
Ubiquitor devices and sensor nodes. Afterwards, we intend to distribute our Ubiquitor devices to distributors and retailers directly
and ship directly to traditional industrial instrument manufacturers. We have a sales department operating out of our Ontario,
California office. We intend to market the Ubiquitor to industrial end-users through direct business-to-business sales channels and
also directly to consumers via e-commerce internet platforms. For our quantum light meters, we intend to implement a direct sales
method via Amazon.com and other online retailers.
*Raw Materials*
The electronic components used in the Ubiquitor
are common and can be easily purchased through a variety of suppliers with little advanced notice. We predominantly use large-scale manufacturers
in the United States such as Texas Instruments and Intel for the major components. Other key suppliers we could consider include Analog
Devices, Skyworks Solutions, Infineon, STMicroelectronics, NXP Semiconductors, Maxim Integrated, On Semiconductor, and Microchip Technology.
Production and assembly lines are also available worldwide if we needed to outsource or increase our capacity, though we intend to complete
our assembly in our Ontario, California facility.
**
| | 13 | | |
*Manufacturing and Assembly*
**
We have an assembly facility in Ontario, California
where we assemble the Ubiquitor from parts sourced predominantly in the United States. Our quantum light meters and handheld sensors are
also manufactured in our Ontario, California facility.
**Key Competitive Advantages and Opportunities
and Strengths**
Across the world, everyday internet connected
devices are getting incorporated in tandem, including thermostats, water meters, home alarms, kitchen gadgets, medical equipment, factory
machinery and even vehicles. Collectively, this ecosystem represents the next frontier in the digital revolution. Unlike the simple automation
of machinery, IoT is mobile and virtual, and features continuous Internet connectivity. IoT can help companies increase productivity,
cut costs, offer new products and services, and deploy new business models.
Despite this forward technological momentum, a
sector-wide study conducted by Cisco showed that 60 percent of IoT initiatives stalled at the very-early Proof of Concept (PoC) stage
and only 26% of companies have had an IoT initiative that they considered a complete success. Herein lies both the key advantage of the
platforms of the Company and its opportunities and strengths. Our combined platforms are able to eliminate redundant work and production
costs in the early-stage development in the IoT sector, whereby project developers do not need to begin from scratch each time they develop
a new IoT product, eliminating a significant part of their workload.
**Competitors**
*Sensor Node Industry*
There are several competitors we have identified
in the sensor node industry, including traditional instruments or devices manufacturers such as Hanna Instruments or Extech Instruments.
Hach developed and launched the SC1000 Multi-parameter
Universal Controller, a probe module for connecting to 32 digital sensors or analyzers. However, their products are not compatible with
smart phones yet; and we believe their price point is still prohibitive to consumers.
Monnit Corporation offers a range of wireless
and remote sensors. Many of Monnits products are web-based wireless sensors that usually are not portable because of their power
consumption. Also, the sensors real-time updates are slow; and we believe security of the web-based sensor data acquisition may
be a concern. In addition to purchasing the device, consumers usually have to pay a monthly fee for using web-based services.
*IoT Installation Industry*
There are several companies that compete with
AVX in smart home installations, including Vivint Smart Home, Crestron and Control4. However, we believe we can distinguish ourselves
from our competitors by offering a substantially lower price. An installation by Crestron ranges between $20,000 and $100,000 and by Control4
between $20,000 and $40,000. The cheapest competitor we can identify in this sector is Vivint Smart Home, which costs less than $5,000
to install; however, we understand that the Vivint Smart Home focuses on security systems only and that users have no other smart applications,
which our smart home product line would include.

**Patent, Trademark, License and Franchise Restrictions
and Contractual Obligations and Concessions**
On November 4, 2016, we filed a U.S. patent application
number 15/344,041 with the USPTO. On March 5, 2018, we issued a press release announcing that the USPTO had issued an Issue Notification
for U.S. Patent Application No. 9924295 entitled Universal Smart Device, which covers a patent application regarding the
Companys Ubiquitor. The patent was granted on March 20, 2018.
After our internal research and development efforts,
we filed with the USPTO on June 2, 2017, a patent application regarding a process for improving the spectral response curve of a photo
sensor. We believe that the small and cost-effective multicolor sensor and its related software protected by the patent could achieve
a spectral response that approximates an ideal photo response to measure optical measurement. The patent was issued on February 26, 2019.
On November 29, 2019, the Company filed an international
utility patent application through the patent cooperation treaty as application PCT/US2019/63880, titled System and Method of Power
Line Communication. In April 2020, the Company was notified that it received a favorable international search report from the International
Searching Authority regarding this patent application, which patents the Companys PLC technology. The World International Property
Organization report cited only three category A documents, indicating that the Companys application met both the
novelty and non-obviousness patentability requirements. The Company has since obtained two patents based on this patent applicationU.S.
Patent Nos. 11546017 and 11984942, issued January 3, 2023 and May 14, 2024, respectively. Consequently, the Company is optimistic that
the patent covering the claims for its PLC technology will be issued in due course and will allow the Company to implement strong protections
on the PLC technology worldwide.
On May 19, 2021, we filed thirteen provisional
patent applications with the USPTO that we had been researching and developing for years, encompassing a broad spectrum of technology
areas including sensor technology, wired and wireless communications, power line communications, computer security, software solutions,
interconnected technological communications, smart home systems and methods for both home and hydroponic areas, dynamic password cipher,
local file security, payment card security, infrared sensor, and a method and apparatus for high data rate transmission.
In addition, the Companys patent number
11,488,468 was allowed and subsequently issued on November 1, 2022. The patent, titled Sensor for Detecting the Proximity of an IEEE 802.11
Protocol Connectable Device.
On April 3, 2023, the United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) issued an Issue Notification for U.S. Patent No. 11580558 entitled Dynamic Anti-Counterfeit
System and Method. The USPTO also issued an Issue Notification for U.S. Patent Application No. 11546017 entitled System
and Method of Power Line Communication. Both patents cover patent applications regarding the Companys PLC business.
In 2024, we retained the law firm of Dority &
Manning, P.A. to serve as outside intellectual property counsel for the Company. With the help of Dority & Manning, we are maintaining
existing patent rights and have improved the sustainability of our patent portfolio by filing omnibus continuation-in-part applications
to maintain intellectual property rights where possible. We filed 3 patents in 2023, and 4 patents in 2024, which would all be classified
as omni-bus patents encompassing more patents consolidating the patent portfolio into a more manageable size in order to reduce budget.
**Research and Development Activities**
For the year ended December 31, 2025, we spent
a total of $919,965 on research and development activities; and for the year ended December 31, 2024, we spent a total of $1,381,937.
A significant portion of our research and development activities are conducted in China by Focus Shenzhen.
**Compliance with Environmental Laws**
We are not aware of any environmental laws that
have been enacted, nor are we aware of any such laws being contemplated for the future, that impact issues specific to our business.
| | 15 | | |
**Employees**
As of the date of this report we have a total of 37 full-time employees.
We do not have any part-time employees. The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Secretary is Dr. Desheng Wang, and our Chief Financial
Officer is Irving Kau. We have 29 full-time electrical and computer engineers (and engineering management staff) working on the research
and development of our products. We have six full-time marketing employees and three full-time employees are working on administrative
tasks. We also have a full-time accounting manager/controller.
**Reports to Securities Holders**
We provide an annual report that includes audited
financial information to our shareholders. We make our financial information equally available to any interested parties or investors
through compliance with the disclosure rules for a small business issuer under the Exchange Act. We are subject to disclosure filing requirements
including filing Form 10-K annually and Form 10-Q quarterly. In addition, we will file Form 8-K and other proxy and information statements
from time to time as required. We do not intend to voluntarily file the above reports in the event that our obligation to file such reports
is suspended under the Exchange Act. The public may read and copy any materials that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission
at the SECs Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549.
The public may obtain information on the operation
of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains
reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.
**Item 1A. RISK FACTORS**
****
**Risks Related to our Business and Industry**
****
**We have a history of operating losses and
going concern basis, and we may not be able to sustain profitability.**
We were incorporated on December 4, 2012; and
as of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $31,023,411. Our current liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has assessed its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from
the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The Company has a net loss of $4,787,769 and $3,200,138 for the years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $31,023,411 and $25,782,308 as
of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and negative cash flow from operating activities of $5,102,771 and $4,656,754 for the years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. If we are not successful in growing revenues and controlling costs, we will not achieve
profitable operations or positive cash flow, and even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability
in subsequent periods.
**We require significant funding to develop, manufacture and market
our Ubiquitor wireless sensor.**
We may ultimately require up to $20 million to
fund the development, manufacturing, assembly and marketing strategy for the Ubiquitor. Once we achieve this fund-raising goal, we intend
to position ourselves in the small device market, establishing the price at below a few hundred dollars. Due to superior functionality
and low price, we expect to capture this section of the market easily. Once our product and service mature, and the Company becomes better
known, we believe we could gain market share in the high-end market. None of this will be possible if we fail to obtain the funding we
require. There is no guarantee that additional funding can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all.
**We depend on key personnel.**
Our future success will depend in part on the
continued service of key personnel, particularly, Desheng Wang, our Chief Executive Officer and Irving Kau, our Chief Financial Officer.
If any of our directors and officers choose to
leave the company, we will face significant difficulties in attracting potential candidates for replacement of our key personnel due to
our limited financial resources and operating history.
| | 16 | | |
**Regulatory actions could limit our ability
to market and sell our products.**
Many of our products and the industries in which
they are used are subject to U.S. and foreign regulation. Government regulatory action could greatly reduce the market for our Ubiquitor
device and for smart home installation. For example, the power line grid, which is the communications grid that could be used by some
of our products, is subject to special regulations in North America, Europe and Japan. In general, these regulations limit the ability
of companies such as ours to use power lines as a communication medium. In addition, some of our competitors have attempted or may attempt
to use regulatory actions to reduce the market opportunity for our products or to increase the market opportunity for their own products.
**We outsource our product manufacturing and
are susceptible to problems in connection with procurement, decreasing quality, reliability and protectability.**
We assemble our Ubiquitor devices by using fully
manufactured parts, the manufacturing of which has been fully outsourced. We have no direct control over the manufacturing processes of
our products. This lack of control may increase quality or reliability risks and could limit our ability to quickly increase or decrease
production rates.
****
**Our potential inability to adequately protect
our intellectual property during the outsource manufacturing of n products in China could negatively impact our performance.**
****
In connection with our manufacturing outsourcing
arrangements, we rely on third-party manufacturers to implement customary manufacturer safeguards onsite, such as the use of confidentiality
agreements with employees, to protect our proprietary information and technologies during the manufacturing process. However, these safeguards
may not effectively prevent unauthorized use of such information and technical knowhow or prevent the manufacturers from retaining them.
We face risks that our proprietary information may not be afforded the same protection in China as it is in countries with more comprehensive
intellectual property laws, and local laws may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of confidential
information. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights in China,
and failure to obtain or maintain intellectual property or trade secret protection could adversely affect our competitive business position.
If the third-party manufacturers of our proprietary products misappropriate our intellectual property, our business, prospects and financial
condition could be materially and adversely affected.
**Our business operations in China may negatively
affect our ability to protect our intellectual property and our financial position.**
On December 31, 2021, we set up a branch office
in mainland China. Historically, China has not protected intellectual property rights to the same extent as the United States, and infringement
ofintellectualpropertyrights continues to pose a seriousriskof doing business inChina. Monitoring
and preventing unauthorized use is difficult. The measures we take to protect our intellectual property rights may not be adequate. Any
unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights could harm our competitive advantages and business. Furthermore, the application
of laws governing intellectual property rights in China is uncertain and evolving and could involve substantial risks to us. If we are
unable to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, we may lose these rights and our business may suffer materially. Moreover,
the complexities that arise from operating in a different tax jurisdiction inevitably led to an increased exposure to international taxation.
Should review of our tax filings result in unfavorable adjustments, our operating results, cash flows, and financial position could be
materially and adversely affected.
**The size and future growth in the market
for our Ubiquitor device or our PLC technology has not been established with precision and may be smaller than we estimate, possibly materially.
If our estimates and projections overestimate the size of this market, our sales growth may be adversely affected.**
Our estimates of the size and future growth in
the market for our Ubiquitor device or our PLC technology is based on several internal studies, reports and estimates. In addition, our
internal estimates are based on current feedback from clients using current generation technology and our belief is that the use and implementation
of our technologies in the United States and worldwide will be extensive. While we believe we are using effective tools in estimating
the total market for Ubiquitor device or our PLC technology, these estimates may not be correct and the conditions supporting our estimates
may change at any time, thereby reducing the predictive accuracy of these underlying factors. The actual demand for our products or competitive
products, could differ materially from our projections if our assumptions are incorrect. As a result, our estimates of the size and future
growth in the market for the Ubiquitor device or our PLC technology may prove to be incorrect. If the demand is smaller than we have estimated,
it may impair our projected sales growth and have an adverse impact on our business.

**If we are unable to properly forecast future
demand of our products, our production levels may not meet demands, which could negatively impact our operating results.**
Our ability to manage our inventory levels to
meet our customers demand for our products is important for our business. Our production levels and inventory management are based
on demand estimates six to twelve months forward considering supply lead times, production capacity, timing of shipments, and dealer inventory
levels. If we overestimate or underestimate demand for any of our products during a given season, we may not maintain appropriate inventory
levels, which could negatively impact our net sales or working capital, hinder our ability to meet customer demand, or cause us to incur
excess and obsolete inventory charges.
**Demand for our Ubiquitor product may be
affected by new entrants who copy our products and/or infringe on our intellectual property.**
The ability to protect and enforce intellectual
property rights varies across jurisdictions. An inability to preserve our intellectual property rights may adversely affect our financial
performance. Competitors and others may also initiate litigation to challenge the validity of our intellectual property or allege that
we infringe their intellectual property. We may be required to pay substantial damages if it is determined our products infringe on their
intellectual property. We may also be required to develop an alternative, non-infringing product that could be costly and time-consuming,
or acquire a license on terms that are not favorable to us. Protecting or defending against such claims could significantly increase our
costs, divert managements time and attention away from other business matters, and otherwise adversely affect our results of operations
and financial condition.
**Internal system or service failures, including
as a result of cyber or other security incidents, could disrupt business operations, result in the loss of critical and confidential information,
and adversely impact our reputation, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our connected products potentially
expose our business to cybersecurity threats.**
Some of our products connect to the internet and
potentially expose our business to cybersecurity threats. Global cybersecurity threats and incidents can range from uncoordinated individual
attempts to gain unauthorized access to our systems to sophisticated and targeted measures known as advanced persistent threats directed
at our products, our customers and/or our third-party service providers, including cloud providers. There has been an increase in the
frequency and sophistication of cyber and other security threats we face, and our customers are increasingly requiring cyber and other
security protections and standards in our products, and we may incur additional costs to comply with such demands.
The potential consequences of a material cyber,
or other security incident include financial loss, reputational damage, negative media coverage, litigation with third parties, which
in turn could adversely affect our competitiveness, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
**Our sensor segment is subject to risks associated
with operations as we diversify away from a single dominant customer.**
While in the past we were subject to volatility
as a result of having only one dominant customer, diversification away from a single customer also poses some risks associated with the
migration, While the company will possess more revenues streams, the migration away from a single steady customer poses risks as we begin
to build new relationships. Along with new marketing efforts, we need to continue to cater to the needs of these new customers or the
business may fluctuate or vanish.
| | 18 | | |
**Prices and availability for the electronic
parts and plastics we need to assemble the Ubiquitor could fluctuate.**
The principal raw materials that we use for our
Ubiquitor device are standard industrial electronics parts and plastics that are generally easily available through a variety of U.S.
domestic and foreign manufacturers. Such raw materials can experience price fluctuations due to a variety of factors, such as tariffs,
import/export fees and delays, and availability. If there is scarcity, then larger competitors could be given purchasing priority with
major suppliers that could make it so smaller companies like us experience volatility in costs and/or availability issues. We expect added
volatility as new import tariffs may be imposed on imports from China, Mexico and Canada. Because this is a recent development, we have
not been able to fully assess this risk or its effects in the manufacturing and import of our products. Also, since we have not yet manufactured
in large numbers, our management team might not have the expertise to mitigate such price fluctuations or availability concerns. Thus,
suppliers could stop selling to us because of demand. Even though it is possible to find alternative suppliers, changing to new suppliers
could delay production and affect the quality of certain products, and there is no guarantee that new tariffs will not be levied upon
goods imported from such new suppliers.
**Changes in tariffs, import or export restrictions,
Chinese regulations or other trade barriers may reduce gross margins.**
We currently source products from manufacturers
in China, including digital, analog, and quantum light meters and certain components for our Ubiquitor device. Currently, the prices we
offer to our U.S. customers are FOB (Free on Board) China. Only the cost of delivering the goods to the nearest port is included and the
customer is responsible for the shipping from China and responsible for all other fees, including tariffs, associated with delivering
the goods to the ultimate destination. If our customers changes the term to CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) United States, then we
would be responsible for the shipping costs and the tariff costs, which may reduce our gross margin, specially now that new tariffs may
be imposed on goods imported from China. Thus, we may incur increases in costs due to changes in tariffs, import or export restrictions,
other trade barriers, or unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, any of which could reduce our gross margins. Moreover, volatile
economic conditions may impact the ability of our suppliers to make timely deliveries; and if a supplier fails to make a delivery, there
is no guarantee that we will be able to timely locate an alternative supplier of comparable quality at an acceptable price.
Since the beginning of 2025, the U.S. has taken
executive orders to increase tariffs against imports from Chinese, Mexican and Canadian goods, but it is difficult to determine at this
time if more tariffs will be imposed on goods imported from other countries. It is difficult to anticipate the impact on our business
caused by the increased tariffs or whether additional changes in tariffs will materialize in the future. Given the relatively fluid regulatory
environment in China and the United States, there could be additional tax, tariffs, or other regulatory changes in the future, and China
could retaliate against the tariffs recently imposed by the U.S. Any such changes could directly and materially adversely impact our business,
financial condition, and operating results.
**Our failure to respond to rapid change in
the technology markets could cause us to lose revenue and harm our competitive position.**
Our future success will depend significantly on
our ability to develop and market new products that keep pace with technological developments and evolving industry standards for technology.
We are currently developing products, including our Ubiquitor device, universal smart monitors, and controllers, distributed shared universal
smart home products, and smart products for the gardening industry, for MacOS, PC, as well as mobile operating systems such as Android
and iOS, that transmit data over Wi-Fi signals, cellular signals, Bluetooth, certain power line systems, traditional wired systems, and
other radio frequency systems that enable data transmission. Our delay or failure to develop or acquire technological improvements, adapt
our products to technological changes or provide technology that appeals to our customers may cause us to lose customers and may prevent
us from generating revenue which could ultimately cause us to cease operations.
| | 19 | | |
**Our business depends on our ability to keep
manufacturing costs low; and we may lack the expertise necessary to negotiate and maintain favorable pricing, supply, business and credit
terms with our potential vendors.**
It may be difficult to negotiate or maintain favorable
pricing, supply, business or credit terms with our potential vendors, suppliers and service providers. In addition, product manufacturing
costs may increase if we fail to achieve anticipated volumes. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage these
risks. In summary, we can offer no assurance that we will be able to obtain a sufficient (but not excess) supply of products on a timely
and cost-effective basis. Our failure to do so would lead to a material adverse impact on our business.
**Since wireless networks are susceptible
to interference and other limitations, and one advantage of our Ubiquitor device and our USIP platform is that it can connect to wireless
networks as one way to transmit data, wireless network limitations may reduce the competitive advantage of the Ubiquitor and USIP platform
in the marketplace.**
Our Ubiquitor and USIP platform relies on both
wired and wireless networks to transmit data, which is a major advantage of the Ubiquitor device and the USIP platform. Wireless networks
allow multiple users to access large amounts of information without the hassle of running wires to and from each IoT device. However,
wireless networks have technological limitations and there are several disadvantages that our Ubiquitor device may face when using a wireless
network. Wireless networks are typically expensive; it can cost up to four times more to set up a wireless network than to set up a wired
network. The range of a wireless network is limited, and a typical wireless router will only allow individuals located within 150 to 300
feet to access the network. Wireless networks are extremely susceptible to interference from radio signals, radiation, and other similar
types of interference. Such interference may cause a wireless network to malfunction. Wireless networks can be accessed by any IoT device
within range of the networks signal so information transmitted through the network (including encrypted information) may be intercepted
by unauthorized users. Wireless networks are typically slower than wired networks, sometimes even up to 10 times slower. Walls and floors
can seriously limit the range of your wireless network. Since wireless networks have severe limitations, these limitations may reduce
the competitive advantage that the Ubiquitor provides in the marketplace which might prevent widespread adoption.
**Demand for our products is uncertain and
depends on our currently unproven ability to create and maintain superior performance.**
Our future operating results will depend upon
our ability to provide our products or services and to operate profitably in an industry characterized by intense competition, rapid technological
advances, and low margins. This, in turn, will depend on several factors, including:
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to generate significant sales and profit margin from the Ubiquitor device; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Worldwide market conditions and demand for sensor devices and other products we may continue to add as we move forward; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Our success in meeting targeted availability dates for our products and services; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to develop and commercialize new intellectual property and to protect existing intellectual property; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to maintain profitable relationships with our distributors, retailers and other resellers; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to maintain an appropriate cost structure; | |
| | 20 | | |
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to attract and retain competent, motivated employees; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to comply with applicable legal requirements throughout the world; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Our ability to successfully manage litigation, including enforcing our rights, protecting our interests, and defending claims made against us. | |
These factors are difficult to manage, satisfy
and influence and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to generate significant demand for and sales of our products.
**The Ubiquitor device could fail to gain
traction in the marketplace for several reasons that would adversely impact our financial results and cause our investors to lose money.**
Future rollout of the Ubiquitor entail numerous risks such as:
| 
| 
| 
Any lack of market acceptance of the Ubiquitor; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Failure to maintain acceptable arrangements with product suppliers, particularly considering lower than anticipated volumes; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Manufacturing, technical, supplier, or quality-related delays, issues, or concerns, including the loss of any key supplier or failure of any key supplier to deliver high quality products on time; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Competition; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Potential declines in demand for sensor devices; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Risks that third parties may assert intellectual property claims against our products. | |
To compete successfully, we must accurately forecast
demand, closely monitor inventory levels, secure quality products, continuously drive down costs, meet aggressive product price and performance
targets, create market demand for our brand and hold sufficient, but not excess, inventory.
**Our Ubiquitor device greatly depends on
the growth and adoption of the IoT market, and other next-generation internet and smartphone-based applications.**
The Internet may ultimately prove not to be a viable commercial marketplace
for IoT applications for several reasons, including:
| 
| 
| 
unwillingness of consumers to shift to and use other such next-generation Internet-based, smartphone-assisted applications; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
refusal to purchase our products and services; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
perception by end-users with respect to the quality of our wireless sensors in an industry historically dominated by wired sensors; competition; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
inadequate development of smartphone infrastructure to keep pace with increased levels of use; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
increased government regulations in a relatively unregulated marketplace. | |
| | 21 | | |
**There is a risk that the market will not
adapt to using the smartphone readout as a substitute platform for sensor devices, causing our products to fail in the marketplace.**
Most products on the small sensor device market
do not currently use smartphones to collect and analyze sensor data. There is no guarantee that using smartphone technology will cut production
costs and be well received. If our USIP using smartphone technology is not well received, there is a risk that device manufacturers will
develop new monitoring and operating components that are incompatible with our current platform instead of developing the traditional
sensors that are compatible with our technology. Updating our platform to stay compatible with new components could increase our costs
unexpectedly.
**Using wireless transmission technologies
such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth may create security risks.**
There is also a risk of failure based on the wireless
transmission of data used by our smartphone platform. If there is instability in a wireless network, Bluetooth sensor, or other network
problems that are out of our control, our new platform may not be well received. Our smartphone platform relies on the wireless transmission
of data through Wi-Fi networks and Bluetooth sensors. These networks are often deemed less secure than a hard-wired network. The security
of a wireless network is often out of our control. However, any breach of security could result in the market and sensor device manufacturers
to fail to embrace our platform.
**Our business involves the use, transmission
and storage of confidential information, and the failure to properly safeguard such information could result in significant reputational
harm.**
We may at times collect, store, and transmit information
of, or on behalf of, our clients that may include certain types of confidential information that may be considered personal or sensitive,
and that are subject to laws that apply to data breaches. We believe that we take reasonable steps to protect the security, integrity,
and confidentiality of the information we collect and store, but there is no guarantee that inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure will
not occur or that third parties will not gain unauthorized access to this information despite our efforts to protect this information,
including through a cyber-attack that circumvents existing security measures and compromises the data that we store. If such unauthorized
disclosure or access does occur, we may be required to notify persons whose information was disclosed or accessed. Most states have enacted
data breach notification laws and, in addition to federal laws that apply to certain types of information, such as financial information,
federal legislation has been proposed that would establish broader federal obligations with respect to data breaches. We may also be subject
to claims for breach of contract for such unauthorized disclosure or access, investigation and penalties by regulatory authorities and
potential claims by persons whose information was disclosed. The unauthorized disclosure of information, or a cyber-security incident
involving data that we store, may result in the termination of one or more of our commercial relationships or a reduction in client confidence
and usage of our services. We may also be subject to litigation alleging the improper use, transmission, or storage of confidential information,
which could damage our reputation among our current and potential clients and cause us to lose business and revenue.
**Product liability associated with the production,
marketing, and sale of our products, and/or the expense of defending against claims of product liability, could materially deplete our
assets and generate negative publicity which could impair our reputation.**
The production, marketing and sale of digital
products have inherent risks of liability in the event of product failure or claim of harm caused by product operation. Furthermore, even
meritless claims of product liability may be costly to defend against. We do not currently have product liability insurance for our products.
We may not be able to obtain this insurance on acceptable terms or at all. Because we may not be able to obtain insurance that provides
us with adequate protection against all or even some potential product liability claims, a successful claim against us could materially
deplete our assets. Moreover, even if we can obtain adequate insurance, any claim against us could generate negative publicity, which
could impair our reputation and adversely affect the demand for our products, our ability to generate sales and our profitability. For
the products we sell in the U.S., we also do not carry product liability insurance. It is our managements position that these handheld
battery-operated products do not carry substantial product liability risk and to the extent there are any product liability risks, such
risks are born by the distributor, who does carry product liability insurance coverage for the products we provide to them, and they sell
to their customers. However, it is possible that we could face liability in a products liability lawsuit for manufacturing defects or
defective design since we design or manufacture the products sold by certain U.S. distributors.
| | 22 | | |
Some of the agreements that we may enter with
manufacturers or distributors of our products and components of our products may require us:
| 
| 
| 
to obtain product liability insurance; or | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
to indemnify manufacturers against liabilities resulting from the sale of our products. | |
If we are not able to obtain and maintain adequate
product liability insurance, then we could be in breach of these agreements, which could materially adversely affect our ability to produce
our products and generate revenues. Even if we can obtain and maintain product liability insurance, if a successful claim in excess of
our insurance coverage is made, then we may have to indemnify some or all of our manufacturers or distributors for their losses, which
could materially deplete our assets.
**We may not be able to identify suitable
acquisition targets or otherwise successfully implement a growth strategy reliant on mergers and acquisitions.**
To expand our business, we hope to pursue mergers
and acquisitions to acquire new or complementary businesses, services or technologies. We expect to continue evaluating potential strategic
acquisitions of businesses, services, and technologies. However, we may not be able to identify suitable candidates, negotiate appropriate
or favorable acquisition terms, obtain financing that may be needed to consummate such transactions or complete proposed acquisitions.
Any such future mergers and acquisitions would be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in acquisitions of companies, including,
among other things, the difficulty of integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired companies; the potential disruption of
the Companys ongoing business; the inability of management to incorporate successfully acquired technology and rights into the
Companys services and product offerings; additional expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets; the maintenance
of uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies; and the potential impairment of relationships with employees, customers and strategic
partners.
**Our growth strategy includes licensing our intellectual property,
and we run the risk that a licensee could become a competitor.**
As part of our growth strategy, we anticipate
licensing our intellectual property. Licensing our intellectual property could potentially damage our business if a licensee becomes a
competitor, especially once the statutory rights to our intellectual property have expired or the licensing arrangement with a licensee
has terminated. A licensee could develop modifications of our intellectual property and choose to compete with us in the marketplace.
Litigation may be necessary to protect our rights to our intellectual property. Even if we are successful, litigation could result in
substantial costs and be a distraction to our management team. If we are not successful, we could lose valuable intellectual property
rights.
**Product defects could result in costly fixes,
litigation, and damages.**
Our business exposes us to potential product liability
risks that are inherent in the design, manufacture, and sale of our products. If there are claims related to defective products (under
warranty or otherwise), particularly in a product recall situation, we could be faced with significant expenses in replacing or repairing
the product. For example, our Ubiquitor devices obtain raw materials, machined parts and other product components from suppliers who provide
certifications of quality which we rely on. Should these product components be defective and pass undetected into finished products, or
should a finished product contain a defect, we could incur significant costs for repairs, re-work and/or removal and replacement of the
defective product. In addition, if a dispute over product claims cannot be settled, arbitration or litigation may result, requiring us
to incur attorneys fees and exposing us to the potential of damage awards against us.
| | 23 | | |
**Only two officers have public company experience
on our management team which could adversely impact our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of U.S. securities laws.**
Amongst our officers, only Dr. Desheng Wang, our
CEO, and Irving Kau, our CFO, have public company experience. Our CEO and CFO are ultimately responsible for complying with federal securities
laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a materially
adverse effect on our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which is necessary
to maintain our public company status. If we were to fail to fulfill those obligations, our ability to continue as a U.S. public company
would be in jeopardy in which event you could lose your entire investment in our Company.
**Some of our officers, directors, consultants,
and advisors are involved in other businesses and not obligated to commit their time and attention exclusively to our business and therefore
they may encounter conflicts of interest with respect to the allocation of time and business opportunities between our operations and
those of other businesses.**
Another example of a conflict of interest are
so called self-dealing transactions. If a conflict-of-interest transaction is negotiated and approved, in a manner that
approximates arms-length negotiations, the transaction is accepted unless a shareholder proves in court that the transaction is not entirely
fair to the company or its shareholders. The burden is on the shareholder to show lack of entire fairness. A self-dealing transaction
is considered invalid if challenged, unless the interested director proves in court that the transaction is entirely fair to the Company.
The burden is on the director to show entire fairness.
If, because of these conflicts, we may be deprived
of business opportunities or information, the execution of our business plan and our ability to effectively compete in the marketplace
may be adversely affected. If our audit committee becomes aware of such conflict of interests, we will take an immediate action to resolve
it. Each conflict of interest will be handled by the Company based on the nature of the conflict and the individual involved in it.
We are not aware of any current or potential conflict of interests
with our consultants or advisors.
**We have concluded that we have not maintained
effective internal control over financial reporting through the years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. Significant deficiencies
and material weaknesses in our internal control could have material adverse effects on us.**
It is important for us to maintain effective internal
control over financial reporting, which is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
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 the Companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely manner.
A material weakness in our internal control over
financial reporting could adversely impact our ability to provide timely and accurate financial information. If we are unsuccessful in
implementing or following our remediation plan, we may not be able to timely or accurately report our financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows or maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures. If we are unable to report financial information timely
and accurately or to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures, we could be subject to, among other things, regulatory or
enforcement actions by the SEC, any one of which could adversely affect our business prospects.
| | 24 | | |
**Our executive officers and directors collectively
have the power to control our management and operations and have a significant majority in voting power on all matters submitted to the
stockholders of the Company.**
Our CEO, Dr. Desheng Wang, owns approximately
22% of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of the date of this report. Our executive officers, directors, and 5% stockholders
together own 39.7% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, our directors have a significant influence in determining
the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all
of our assets. They also have the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of our directors may differ from the interests
of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders.
Management currently beneficially owns most of
our outstanding common stock. Consequently, management can influence control of the operations of the Company and, acting together, will
have the ability to influence or control substantially all matters submitted to stockholders for approval, including:
| 
| 
| 
Election of our board of directors; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Removal of directors; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Amendment to the Companys Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Adoption of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination. | |
These stockholders have complete control over
our affairs. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership by itself may have the effect of impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover
or other business consolidation, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer for the common stock.
**If we fail to maintain an effective system
of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and
potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.**
Members of our Board of Directors are inexperienced
with U.S. GAAP and the related internal control procedures required of U.S. public companies. Management has determined that our internal
audit function is also significantly deficient due to insufficient qualified resources to perform internal audit functions.
We are a smaller reporting company with limited
resources. Therefore, we cannot assure investors that we will be able to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting
based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that
there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements will not
be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The Company has deficiencies over financial statements in areas of recording revenue and expenses
in proper cut off as well as proper classification of accounts. For these reasons, we are considering the costs and benefits associated
with improving and documenting our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures, which includes (i) hiring
additional personnel with sufficient U.S. GAAP experience and (ii) implementing ongoing training in U.S. GAAP requirements for our CFO
and accounting and other finance personnel. If the result of these efforts are not successful, or if material weaknesses are identified
in our internal control over financial reporting, our management will be unable to report favorably as to the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting and/or our disclosure controls and procedures, and we could be required to further implement expensive
and time-consuming remedial measures and potentially lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports
which could have an adverse effect on our stock price and potentially subject us to litigation.
| | 25 | | |
**The requirements of being a public company
may strain our resources and distract our management.**
We are required to comply with various regulatory
and reporting requirements, including those required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Complying with these reporting and other
regulatory requirements is time-consuming and may result in increased costs to us and could have a negative effect on our business, results
of operations and financial condition.
As a public company, we are subject to the reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,
as amended, or SOX. These requirements may place a strain on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires that we file annual,
quarterly, and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. SOX requires that we maintain effective disclosure
controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. Compliance with these rules and regulations will increase our
legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming, or costly and increase demand on our systems
and resources.
These activities may divert managements
attention from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards
relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance
costs, and making some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in
many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided
by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated
by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and
standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of managements time
and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards
differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may
initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed.
We also expect that being a public company and
these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required
to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for
us to attract and retain qualified members of our Board of Directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee,
and qualified executive officers.
**Risks Related to the Ownership of our Common
Stock**
**Our common stock is subordinated to our
preferred stock.**
As described in the Certificate of Designations,
Preferences and Rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, shares of Series A and Series B Preferred Stock rank
senior to shares of Common Stock, with respect to rights on the distribution of assets in any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolutions
or winding up of the affairs of the Company.
****
**Starting on January 19, 2026, the outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be redeemable at the holder of such shares option.**
****
Beginning on January 19, 2026, the outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock is redeemable at the Series B holders option during certain periods over two (2) years. Redemption
of the Series B Preferred Stock would result in the Company to meet such redemption obligations in cash or by finding a third party to
purchase such shares of Series B Preferred Stock. No assurances can be given that we will have the funds available in the event a holder
of Series B Preferred Stock elects to exercise the redemption rights nor that any third party will be willing to purchase such shares
of Series B Preferred Stock. Our ability to meet such redemption obligations will depend on our earnings and cash flow. Furthermore, in
the event of a redemption, the Companys requirement to meet such redemption obligations could reduce funds available to further
our business and business strategy. On January 19, 2026, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock provided the Company with Redemption
Notices requesting the Company to redeem all of their outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. While the allotted time period for
redemption (20 days), has passed, the Company and the Series B Holders remain engaged in negotiations to find an amicable solution. On
February 19,2026, the Series B investors sent a redemption demand letter for 3,716 outstanding Series B Preferred shares, totaling $3,158,600.
This demand letter was subsequently rescinded by the Series B holders while the Series B holders and management attempted to negotiate
a settlement. On March 17, 2026, after the parties could not negotiate a successful settlement, the Series B investors renewed their redemption
requests by emailing Company management a notice of default. The Company has engaged external advisors to assist in discussions
with the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and is currently engaged in ongoing negotiations to determine the most appropriate resolution
that maximizes value for all stockholders, including the Series B shareholders.

**Our shares may be affected by short selling
practices which may decrease the stock price.**
****
The Company believes that certain individuals
and/or companies may have engaged in manipulative and/or suspected illegal trading practices that may artificially depress our share price.
There is great concern in todays market environment regarding the potential targeting of publicly traded companies in a market
manipulation scheme involving illegal naked short selling of stock. The Company finds such suspected manipulation completely unacceptable
as it distorts the value of the Company and negatively impacts shareholders who have invested their hard-earned money. We are considering
engaging third party service providers to further investigate these practices by aggregating and analyzing repository data from reporting
entities, broker-dealers and shareholders enabling us to proactively track shareholder ownership, identify parties involved in suspicious,
aberrant, or unusual trading activity and deploy corrective action steps to help curtail such activity.
The SEC and other regulatory and self-regulatory
authorities have implemented various rules and taken certain actions, and may in the future adopt additional rules, and take other actions,
that may impact those engaging in short selling activity involving equity securities (including our common stock). Such rules and actions
include Rule 201 of SEC Regulation SHO, the adoption by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and the national securities
exchanges of a Limit Up-Limit Down program, the imposition of market-wide circuit breakers that halt trading of securities
for certain periods following specific market declines, and the implementation of certain regulatory reforms required by the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Any governmental or regulatory action that restricts the ability of investors
to effect short sales of our common stock, borrow our common stock or enter into swaps on our common stock could adversely affect the
trading price and liquidity of our shares.
**An increase of free trading shares of our
common stock could result in substantial sales of common stock on the open market which could cause our stock price to fall substantially.**
As of March 25, 2026, we had 561,765 freely trading
shares, after the Companys Board of Directors approved a 10 to 1 reverse stock split. Any increase in freely trading shares, or
the perception that such shares will or could come onto the market could have an adverse effect on the trading price of the stock. No
prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that sales of these shares, or the availability of such shares for sale, will have on
the market prices prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that substantial amounts of common stock may be sold in
the public market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through
the sale of our equity securities or impair our shareholders ability to sell on the open market.
**You could be diluted from our future issuance
of capital stock and derivative securities.**
As of December 31, 2025, we had 915,097 shares
of common stock outstanding and 7,263 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding. We are authorized to issue up to 1,000,000,000 shares
of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. To the extent of such authorization, our Board of Directors will have the ability,
without seeking stockholder approval, to issue additional shares of common stock or preferred stock in the future for such consideration
as the Board of Directors may consider sufficient. The issuance of additional common stock or preferred stock in the future may reduce
a shareholders proportionate ownership and voting power.
**Substantial future sales of our common stock, or the perception
in the public markets that these sales may occur, may depress our stock price.**
Sales of substantial shares of our common stock
in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the price of our common stock and could impair
our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional shares.
In the future, we may issue our securities if
we need to raise capital in connection with a capital raise or acquisitions. The number of shares of our common stock issued in connection
with a capital raise or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding shares of our common stock and have a
dilutive effect on our shareholders which could have a material negative effect on our stock price.
| | 27 | | |
**Future sales of our common stock by existing
stockholders could cause our stock price to decline.**
If our existing stockholders sell substantial
shares of our common stock in the public market, then the market price of our common stock could decrease significantly. The perception
in the public market that our stockholders might sell shares of common stock also could depress the market price of our common stock.
There are approximately 915,097 shares of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2025, of which approximately 480,006 shares
are freely tradable.
Certain existing holders of most of our common
stock have rights, subject to certain conditions, to require us to file registration statements covering their shares or to include their
shares in registration statements that we may file for ourselves or other shareholders. If the sale of these shares are registered, they
will be freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act. In the event such registration rights are exercised, and many shares
of common stock are sold in the public market, such sales could reduce the trading price of our common stock.
A decline in the price of shares of our common
stock might impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock or other equity securities.
**We do not intend to pay dividends and there will be less ways
in which you can make a gain on any investment in Focus Universal Inc.**
We have never paid any cash dividends and currently
do not intend to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent that we require additional funding currently not provided
for in our financing plan, our funding sources may likely prohibit the payment of a cash dividend. Because we do not intend to declare
cash dividends, any gain on an investment in Focus Universal Inc. will need to come through appreciation of the stocks price.
**Sales of a substantial number of shares
of our common stock in the public market by certain of our shareholders could cause our stock price to fall.**
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our
common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock,
and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We are unable to predict the effect that
sales may have on the prevailing market price of shares of our common stock.
**An active trading market for our common
stock may not be maintained.**
Our common stock is currently
listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol FCUV, but we can provide no assurance that we will be able to maintain
an active trading market on this or any other exchange in the future. A lack of an active market may impair the ability of our stockholders
to sell shares at the time they wish to sell or at a price that they consider favorable. The lack of an active market may also reduce
the fair market value of our common stock, impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability
to use common stock as consideration to attract and retain talent or engage in business transactions (including mergers and acquisitions).
As previously reported, the Company has met the continued listing requirements for Nasdaq Capital Market by submitting a transfer application
from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Capital Market and providing written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second
compliance period to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the Bid Price Rule). The Company was provided
a second compliance period of 180 calendar days or until March 17, 2025, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If, at any time
before the Compliance Date, the bid price of the Companys security is at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive days then this
matter should be closed with respect to the Bid Price Rule.
On February 9, 2026, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its outstanding common
stock on a 1-for-10 basis. No adjustment was made to the Companys authorized shares of capital stock.

**We may not be able to maintain the continued
NASDAQ listing standards.**
NASDAQ requires companies to fulfill specific
requirements in order for their shares to continue to be listed. There is no guarantee that our common stock will maintain NASDAQ continued
listing standards and we may be delisted. If our common stock is delisted from NASDAQ, our shareholders could find it difficult to sell
their common stock.
As previously disclosed, on June 30, 2025, we
received a letter from Nasdaqs Listing Qualifications Department(the Staff)that said our Market Value
of Listed Securities had fallen below $35,000,000, and therefore, we no longer satisfy the requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2)
(the MVLS Rule). The Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until December 29, 2025 (the Compliance
Date), to regain compliance with the MVLS Rule. If at any time before the Compliance Date, the Companys MVLS closes at $35,000,000
or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, then this matter will be closed. If the Company does not regain compliance with
the MVLS Rule prior to the expiration of the Compliance Date, the Company will receive notification from the Staff that its securities
are subject to delisting.
As previously disclosed, on December 22, 2025,
the Company received a conditional compliance letter fromthe Staff of theNasdaq Stock Market (**Nasdaq**)
notifying the Company that based on the Companys disclosure on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 17, 2025, through which
the Company discloses its belief of meeting the requirement of maintaining the minimum $2,500,000 in Stockholders equity, the
Staff has determined that the Company complies with the MVLS Rule. However, the Staff provides that if the Company fails to provide evidence
of compliance upon filing its next periodic report, the Company may be subject to delisting.
If the shares of our common stock were to be delisted
from NASDAQ, we expect that it would be traded on the OTCQB or OTCQX marketplaces, which are unorganized, inter-dealer, over-the-counter
markets that provide significantly less liquidity than NASDAQ or other national securities exchanges. Thus, a delisting from NASDAQ may
have a material adverse effect on the trading and price of our common stock.
**If we are unable to maintain compliance
with NASDAQ continued listing standards, including maintenance of at least $2.5 million of stockholders equity and maintenance
of a $1.00 minimum bid price, our common stock may be delisted from NASDAQ.**
There can be no assurances that we will be able
to maintain our NASDAQ listing in the future. In the event we are unable to maintain compliance with NASDAQ continued listing standards
and our common stock is delisted from NASDAQ, it could likely lead to a number of negative implications, including an adverse effect on
the price of our common stock, reduced liquidity in our common stock, the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws and greater
difficulty in obtaining financing. In the event of a delisting, we would take actions to restore our compliance with NASDAQs continued
listing standards, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to become listed again,
stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the NASDAQ minimum
bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with NASDAQs continued listing requirements.
**Risks Related to AVX**
**Increasing competition within our industry
could have an impact on our business prospects.**
The IoT market is a growing industry where new
competitors are entering the market frequently. These competing companies may have significantly greater financial and other resources
than we have and may have been developing their products and services longer than we have been developing ours. Although our portfolio
of products and related revenue stream sources are broad, increasing competition may have a negative impact on our profit margins.
| | 29 | | |
**The success of our smart home installation
business will depend upon the efforts of management of our subsidiary AVX.**
We can offer no assurance that we will be able
to retain or effectively recruit new additional personnel. The departure of any key members of AVXs management team could make
it more difficult to operate AVX. Moreover, to the extent that we will rely upon their management team to operate AVX, we will be subject
to risks regarding their managerial competence. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our assessment of these individuals will prove
to be correct and that they will have the skills, abilities, and qualifications we expect.
**If we are unable to integrate the Ubiquitor
device into the smart home installation business, we may not be able to distinguish ourselves in the segment and that could negatively
affect our ability to operate in the competitive smart home installation industry.**
The smart home installation business is a highly
competitive market, and we have numerous competitors who are already well-established in the market. We expect our competitors to continue
improving the design and performance of their products and to introduce new products that could be competitive in both price and performance.
The reason we believe that we could become competitive in this market segment is because we anticipate integrating the Ubiquitor device,
and our platforms into AVXs smart home installations. However, there is no guarantee that we can integrate the Ubiquitor device
into AVXs smart home installations. If we are unable to integrate the Ubiquitor device into smart home installations, we will not
be able to achieve the competitive price and performance we anticipate achieving success. Alternatively, we may not be able to achieve
a smart home installation at a cost-effective price that is sufficient to distinguish us from amongst the competition in this market segment.

**Item 1C. CYBERSECURITY RISK MANAGEMENT, STRATEGY
AND GOVERNANCE**
**Risk Management and Strategy**
We have implemented a cybersecurity process that
is designed to assess, identify, manage and govern material risks from cybersecurity threats and requires a firewall for outside connections.
We operate a closed server in a locked room and regularly examine cybersecurity threats that could compromise our information systems
security or data and otherwise maintain our cybersecurity policies and procedures in accordance with industry standard control frameworks
and applicable regulations, laws, and standards.
We regularly check and improve our security measures
and educate our employees about such measures with the help of our information technology (IT) team. Key personnel are made aware of our
cybersecurity process through trainings.
We do not engage third party professionals or
disclose our internal security measures to private parties.
We have never experienced a cybersecurity incident
that was determined to be material, although, like many technology-dependent companies operating in the current environment, we have experienced
cybersecurity incidents in the past. For additional information regarding whether any risks from cybersecurity threats are reasonably
likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, please see the section
titled [Risk Factors.](#k_004)
**Governance**
One of the key functions of our board of directors,
in connection with our IT team, is informed oversight of our risk management process, which includes risks from cybersecurity threats.
Our board of directors monitors and assesses strategic risk exposure, and our executive officers manage the material risks we face.
Our
board of directors manages our cybersecurity policies and processes, including those described in the Risk Management and
Strategy section above. Together,
they stay informed and manage how we identify, address, prevent and resolve cybersecurity issues and related matters. They
also track how we prevent, identify, lessen, and address cybersecurity issues. This is done through checks of our systems,
tests to identify security weaknesses, and encouraging management to maintain an incident response plan.

**Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**
On or about April 13, 2020, Ian Patterson, the
Chief Operations Officer of AVX resigned from his position. On May 5, 2020, Mr. Patterson filed an action in the Superior Court for the
County of Los Angeles, State of California, against the company, et al. The complaint alleges claims including discrimination, wrongful
termination, retaliation and various other provisions of the California Labor Code, and various other claims under California state law.
The complaint seeks unspecified economic and non-economic losses, as well as attorneys fees. On August 29, 2025, the Company and
Former COO entered into a confidential settlement agreement which concluded this matter and releases all claims against the Company. This
settlement has been accounted for in these financial statements and is scheduled to be executed and concluded in early August.
Similarly, on or about April 14, 2020, Devesa
Sarria, the Sales and Marketing Director, was terminated. On May 13, 2020, she filed an action in the Superior Court for the County of
Los Angeles, State of California. The Complaint alleges claims including discrimination, wrongful termination, retaliation and various
other provisions of the California Labor Code, and various other claims under California state law. On August 29, 2025, the Company and
Former Sales and Marketing Director entered into a confidential settlement agreement which concluded this matter and releases all claims
against the Company. This settlement has been accounted for in these financial statements and this is scheduled to be executed and concluded
in early August as well. The conclusion on these two related matters would mark the conclusion of all legal matters with respect to Focus
Universal Inc.
On August 26, 2024, a former software engineer
filed an action against Perfecular Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in the Superior Court for the County of San Bernardino,
State of California alleging wrongful termination and other violations of the California Labor Code. This case was settled for $130,000
plus legal fees, and its impact recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Company has EPLI insurance with a deductible amount
of $100,000. During the quarter, Focus Universal settled and this matter was finally executed and concluded on April 25, 2025.
On October 28, 2024, MGR Real Estate, Inc. a California
corporation, filed an action in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Bernardino, against the Company. The complaint
alleges a variety of things including breach of contract and declaratory relief. The complaint is in connection with a listing agreement
executed between the Company and the plaintiff, which plaintiff alleges gave it exclusive rights to list and sale the property located
at 2311 E. Locust St., Ontario, CA 91761 (the Premises). The complaint seeks damages in a minimum amount of $373,025, plus
interest at a rate of 10% per annum. On April 10, 2025, the Company, Mr. Kau, and MGR Real Estate, Inc. entered into a confidential settlement

| | 31 | | |
On January 19, 2026, the Company received requests
for redemption (the Redemption Notices) from the holders of the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
(Series B Preferred Stock). Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock, as amended, the holders
of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock have the option to require the Company, to redeem all or less than all of the outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock. From the date the Company receives the Redemption Notice, the Company had 20 trading days (the Time
Period) to redeem the shares of Series B Preferred Stock set forth in the notice for a price equal to the Purchase Price multiplied
by the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock subject to such redemption. Since the Company has received the Redemption Notice,
the Time Period the Company had to redeem the shares of Series B Preferred Stock has since lapsed. As provided in the Certificate of Designation,
with respect to redemption, the Company must comply with Nevada state law which prohibits certain distributions or redemptions. Therefore,
management of the Company took the position that under Nevada state law, the Series B Transaction documents do not require the Company
to redeem the Series B holders under the specific conditions demanded by the investors. As of March 16, 2026, a total of 6,447 shares
of Series B Preferred Stock or an aggregate of $5,479,950 remain subject to redemption. On February 19, 2026, the Series B investors sent
a redemption demand letter for 3,716 outstanding Series B Preferred shares, totaling $3,158,600. This demand letter was subsequently rescinded
by the Series B holders while the Series B holders and management attempted to negotiate a settlement. On March 17, 2026, after the parties could not successfully negotiate
a settlement, the Series B investors renewed their redemption requests by emailing Company management a notice of default. The Company has engaged external advisors to assist in discussions
with the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and is currently engaged in ongoing negotiations to determine the most appropriate resolution
that maximizes value for all stockholders, including the Series B shareholders. In addition, management is actively working to identify
potential buyers to purchase the Series B Preferred Stock from holders seeking redemption on mutually acceptable terms.

**Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans**
On December 15, 2018, our Board of Directors presented
the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan to the shareholders. On December 17, 2018, the holders of 63.051% of our issued and outstanding shares
of common stock adopted a resolution by written consent without a meeting adopting the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. The plan reserves an
aggregate of 100,000 shares of the Companys common stock, which provides for the payment of various forms of incentive compensation
to employees, consultants, executives, and directors of the Company. The 2018 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the grant of the following
types of stock awards: (i) incentive stock options; (ii) non-statutory stock options; (iii) stock appreciation rights; (iv) restricted
stock awards; (v) restricted stock unit awards; and (vi) other stock awards. Under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, a ten percent stockholder
will not be granted an incentive stock option unless the exercise price of such option is at least one hundred and ten percent of the
fair market value on the date of grant and the option is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the grant date. The Board
of Directors determines the vesting schedule of the grants with broad discretion. On August 6, 2019, each member of the Board was granted

*The following discussion should be read in
conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because we desire to take

Focus Universal Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
Company, we, us, or our), has developed the five proprietary platform technologies
described in the [Business](#k_003) Section, starting on page 1. These are: (1) device on a chip; (2) universal smart instrumentation
platform (USIP); (3) 5G ultra-narrowband technology; (4) ultra-narrowband power line communication (PLC)
technology; and (5) our financial reporting software.
In an effort to continually develop our product
lines, we plan to phase out the traditional, lower-margin products, such as the first-generation digital light meter, and are preparing
to launch a new line of products that have been in development for several years. These newer technology products will be released in
phases, and we intend that increasing amounts of technology will be layered upon these products. Additionally, we plan to continue to
increase our efforts in protecting more intellectual property and have continued to develop technologies for long-term growth. We have
developed products in both the controlled agriculture industry and home automation industries, taking advantage of our existing relationships
in both sectors.
We are building a U.S.-based sales team to market
our Smart AVX-branded product lines. The team has already begun marketing our current large format multimedia touch screens, surveillance
camera system (cameras and network video recorders (NVRs)), indoor and outdoor LED screens, and Focus Universal-branded voice over internet
protocol (VOIP) phone service systems for use in commercial and corporate settings.
Our products on the home automation front are
beginning the production cycle. Of note, smart wall touch light switches, digital control smart wall touch light switches, smart timers,
and smart controllers are ready for production. Sourcing of electronic parts for these products is completed, the cost analysis of these
products is completed, and most of the tooling for production has been completed.
Currently, our Shenzhen subsidiary mainly focuses
on product development and commercialization. An important electrode with a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) meter
design, with applications in all solubility measurements, was completed and approved by our U.S. management team. The designs of our TDS
sensor, carbon dioxide sensor, new quantum PAR sensor and total dissolved oxygen sensors are also completed. Our testing against the state-of-the-art
sensors on the market suggests to us that the new sensors are at least as good as the best quality sensors on the market. However, we
believe that our sensors are much more cost effective.
| | 35 | | |
Our financial software design team has also made
significant progress during 2025 to our One Touch Financial software product. Having the mathematical and graphical environments created,
our team is focused on developing an automated 3D user interface design. Our public reporting automation software is completed and currently
undergoing extensive testing. We have developed a Microsoft-based add-on software that aims to streamline and automate the financial
reporting preparation process. We believe the software will significantly simplify the Form 10-Q and Form 10-K preparation processes and
make creating, editing and managing documents both simple and accurate. We believe our financial software is ready to commercialize. A
cloud-based version of this software is currently under the development.
We have completed an initial production run of
prototype Ubiquitor devices and intend to proceed into full-scale production during 2025. During 2025, we presented the Ubiquitor at several
trade shows including CES 2024 and 2025. The Ubiquitors sensor analytics system integrates event-monitoring, storage and analytics
software in a cohesive package that provides a holistic view of the sensor data it is reading. The Ubiquitor was first showcased at the
Consumer Technology Associations CES 2024 trade show, which attracted significant interest from potential customers.
We have designed a full line of products for the
gardening industry by integrating the Ubiquitor device into a gardening system. The system includes the Ubiquitor connected to a light
control node, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, digital light sensor, quantum PAR sensor, pH sensor, total dissolved solids (TDS)
sensor and carbon dioxide sensor. We believe the combination of the Ubiquitor with these sensors will offer the same features as a combination
of dozens or even hundreds of different standalone instruments in the gardening industry.
We continue to build upon our existing research
and development with the intention of inventing an ultra-narrowband PLC technology that attempts to tackle: 1) overcoming interference
caused by electronic noise on the power line system; and 2) bandwidth. Preliminary internal testing suggests that we have achieved significant
noise rejection and interference suppression. In our preliminary internal testing, we have been able to increase bandwidth to 4 megabits
per second with the potential for more, while simultaneously effectively dealing with electrical noise and interference. Based on the
promising results of our internal testing, we have begun designing a proprietary PLC microchip and have set an intended launch date for
late 2025 or early 2026 pending further development work from the engineering department.
Two of our products are ready for commercialization.
These are our financial reporting software, One Touch Financial, and universal smart technology for smart meters and automation. We are
currently looking for distribution partners for both products.
On January 21, 2026, the Company entered into
a purchase, sale, and escrow agreement with 901 Corporate Center, LP to acquire a 100,743 sq. ft. office and commercial building, along
with a four-level parking structure, located in Monterey Park, California. While investment in a building is not a core business activity
for the Company, the planned acquisition of a new office building does present the Company with a very low real estate expense, in addition
to a conservative 9-10% cap rate with a desirable location and market, based on industry professional analysis. The additional cash flow
shall be used to offset corporate and general costs while the company continues to expect the IoT and financial software divisions to
be able to generate revenues soon to bear those associated expenses.
While currently, we do not believe that inflation
will play a large role and have a large effect on our current business, as our business grows, inflation may play a larger role as our
need to procure supplies increases and our borrowing requirements increase as well. As we begin to diversify away from a single sector
and a single large customer, we also believe that our exposure to market volatility in that sector will be diminished significantly.
We believe this should have a stabilizing effect on revenues. However, as our new products begin to reach maturity and completion, we
do believe our exposure to our supply chain risk will increase with our need for consistently procuring inputs and raw materials. We
believe supply chain disruption is the largest risk factor for our cash flow as production increases. For a greater description of our
technologies, our business segments and the products we are currently selling, see Part I Item 1. [Business](#k_003)
above.

Selling expense for the year ended December
31, 2025 was $60,289, compared to $100,189 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Selling expense incurred was mainly from third
party advertising fees. The decrease of selling expense was due to a decrease in advertising fees and trade show expenses.
Compensation officers and directors were
$499,852 and $951,845 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in cost was a result in the decrease
in the share price, resulting in a larger stock-based compensation for the directors associated.
Research and development costs were $919,965 and
$1,381,937 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease was due to software costs being capitalized in the
current year.
Professional fees were $1,302,800 during the year
ended December 31, 2025 compared to $1,660,590 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in these professional fees compared
to the prior period was due to a decrease in legal fees for employment litigation defense.
General and administrative expenses for the year
ended December 31, 2025 was $2,075,107, compared to $2,115,891 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Overall, general and administrative
expenses did not vary significantly between 2025 and 2024.

**Cash Flows from Operating Activities**
Our net cash outflows from operating activities
of $5,102,771 for the year ended December 31, 2025, was primarily the result of our net loss of $4,787,769 and changes in our operating
assets and liabilities offset by the add-back of non-cash expenses, and operating activities from discontinued operations.
Our net cash outflows from operating activities
of $4,656,754 for the year ended December 31, 2024, was primarily the result of our net loss of $3,200,138 and changes in our operating
assets and liabilities offset by the add-back of non-cash expenses, and operating activities from discontinued operations.
We expect that cash flows from operating activities
may fluctuate in future periods because of a number of factors, including fluctuations in our net revenues and operating results, utilization
of new revenue streams, collection of accounts receivable, and timing of billings and payments.

| | 39 | | |
Going Concern
The Company has assessed its ability to continue
as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The Company has
a net loss of $4,787,769 and $3,200,138 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, the Company had an
accumulated deficit of $31,023,411 and $25,782,308 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and negative cash flow from operating
activities of $5,102,771 and $4,656,754 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Substantial doubt about the Companys
ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable
that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year from the financial statement issuance date.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of
the Company as a going concern. The Company currently suffered recurring losses from operations, generated negative cash flow from operating
activities, has an accumulated deficit and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover
operating costs over an extended period of time. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.
These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset
amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
At December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and
cash equivalents, and short-term investments, in the amount of $7,957,845. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on
the Company attaining and maintaining profitable operations in the future and raising additional capital to meet its obligations and repay
its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Since inception, the Company has funded its operations primarily
through equity and debt financings, and it expects to continue to rely on these sources of capital in the future. No assurance can be
given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even
if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing,
or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing, or grant unfavorable terms in future licensing agreements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any off-balance-sheet
arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation SK.
On January 21, 2026, the Company entered into
a purchase, sale, and escrow agreement with 901 Corporate Center, LP to acquire a 100,743 sq. ft. office and commercial building, along
with a four-level parking structure, located in Monterey Park, California. The purchase price is $17,700,000, with an escrow deposit of
$525,000. The escrow was initially scheduled to close within sixty days of opening escrow. The $525,000 deposit was placed into the escrow
account on January 26, 2026. Both parties have executed several amendments to extend the closing date from February to March 2026. Subsequently,
on March 20, 2026, the parties entered into a fifth amendment extending the contingency period to April 10, 2026. At this point in time,
the Company has made significant progress towards financing, however there is no assurance that the financing will be completed or that
it will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
On January 19, 2026, the Company received requests
for redemption (the Redemption Notices) from the holders of the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
(Series B Preferred Stock). Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock, as amended, the holders
of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock have the option to require the Company, to redeem all or less than all of the outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock. From the date the Company receives the Redemption Notice, the Company had 20 trading days (the Time
Period) to redeem the shares of Series B Preferred Stock set forth in the notice for a price equal to the Purchase Price multiplied
by the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock subject to such redemption. Since the Company has received the Redemption Notice,
the Time Period the Company had to redeem the shares of Series B Preferred Stock has since lapsed. As provided in the Certificate of Designation,
with respect to redemption, the Company must comply with Nevada state law which prohibits certain distributions or redemptions. Therefore,
management of the Company took the position that under Nevada law, the Series B Transaction documents do not require the Company to redeem
the Series B holders under the specific conditions demanded by the investors. As of March 16, 2026, a total of 6,447 shares of Series
B Preferred Stock or an aggregate of $5,479,950 remain subject to redemption. On February 19, 2026, the Series B investors sent a redemption
demand letter for 3,716 outstanding Series B Preferred shares, totaling $3,158,600. This demand letter was subsequently rescinded by the
Series B holders while the investors and management attempted to negotiate a settlement. On March 17, 2026, after the parties could not
successfully negotiate a settlement, the Series B holders renewed their redemption requests by emailing Company management a notice of
default. The Company has engaged external advisors to assist in discussions
with the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and is currently engaged in ongoing negotiations to determine the most appropriate resolution
that maximizes value for all stockholders. In addition, management is actively working to identify potential buyers to purchase the Series
B Preferred Stock from holders seeking redemption on mutually acceptable terms.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM**
****
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Focus Universal Inc.
West Covina, California
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Focus Universal Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related
statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred
to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and 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.
Going
Concern
The accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has experienced negative cash flows from operating
activities that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these
matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged
to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
| | F-2 | | |
**Critical Audit Matter**
The critical audit matter
communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or
required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated
financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters
does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the
critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
*Issuance of Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock*
Description of the Matter
As described in Note 6 Series B Redeemable
Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock) to the financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company
entered into a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue up to 8,236 shares of Series
B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price of $850 per share (pre-reverse split), for an aggregate purchase price of $7,000,000,
subject to $680,000 direct financing costs, receiving net proceeds of $6,320,000. The Certificate of Designation of the Series B Preferred
Stock, as amended, also contained provisions that would allow the holder certain redemption rights.
The Company accounted for this transaction as
mezzanine (temporary) equity under ASC 480 due to redemption features exercisable at the option of the holder or upon events not solely
within the Companys control. Furthermore, the Company recorded the closing costs as a reduction of the initial carrying amount of
the instrument that will be accreted over the redemption period.
We determined this to be a Critical Audit Matter
as it is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to
be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial
statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
The primary procedures we performed to address
this critical audit matter included:
| 
| 
| 
We obtained and examined the supporting Series B Preferred Stock purchase
agreements including the certificates of designation, to understand the specific terms and conditions, including conversion and redemption features. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
We obtained and tested the Companys analysis of the transaction in accordance with the current accounting guidance, vouched
the receipt of the proceeds and issuance of the shares, and tested the mathematical recalculation of then accretion during the period. | |

**FOCUS UNIVERSAL INC.**
**NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
**DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024**
****
****
**Note 1 Organization and Operations**
****
Focus Universal Inc. (Focus) was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 4, 2012 (Inception). The Company is a universal smart instrument
developer and manufacturer, headquartered in Ontario, California, specializing in the development and commercialization of novel and proprietary
universal smart technologies and instruments. Focus Universal Inc. is also a provider of patented hardware and software design technologies
for Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G. The Company has developed five disruptive patented technology platforms with 28 patents
and patents pending in various phases and 8 trademarks pending in various phases to solve the major problems facing hardware and software
design and production within the industry today. These technologies combined have the potential to reduce costs, product development timelines
and energy usage while increasing range, speed, efficiency, and security. The smartphone or other mobile device, foundation, and sensor
readouts together perform the functions of many traditional scientific and engineering instruments and are intended to replace the traditional,
wired stand-alone instruments at a fraction of their cost.
The Company has multiple subsidiaries, including
Perfecular Inc. (Perfecular), AVX Design & Integration, Inc. (AVX, also doing business as Smart AVX (Smart
AVX)), Focus Universal (Shenzhen) Technology Company LTD (Focus Shenzhen), Lusher Bioscientific, Inc. and Lusher,
Inc. (together Lusher), and until August, 2024, AT Tech Systems LLC (AT Tech LLC), which activities
have since been discontinued.
AT Tech Systems was a subsidiary of Focus and
specialized in commercial and industrial smart IoT installation projects in areas throughout Southern California. On August 5, 2024,
the Company and the segment manager of AT Tech Systems LLC reached a tentative oral agreement to terminate his employment, and the employment
of his two team members. The Company discontinued operations of AT Tech Systems on August 21, 2024, with a termination cost of $22,000
and is now presenting these operations as discontinued. (See Note 9)
**Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**
*Principles of Consolidation*
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Perfecular, AVX, Focus Shenzhen, Lusher, Lusher Inc. and AT Tech
Systems (collectively, the Company, we, our, or us). All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.
*Use of Estimates*
The preparation of consolidated financial statements
in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts,
historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily
apparent from other sources.
The actual results experienced by the Company
may differ materially and adversely from the Companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates
and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements
include the useful lives of property and equipment, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves, accruals for potential liabilities,
assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company regularly
evaluates its estimates and assumptions.
| | F-8 | | |
*Segment Reporting*
The Companys management team is provided
financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. In
addition, substantially all of the Companys revenue and long-lived assets are attributable to operations in the United States for
all periods presented.
The Company currently has two operating segments.
In accordance with ASC 280, *Segment Reporting*(ASC 280), the Company considers operating segments to be components
of the Companys business for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by Management in deciding
how to allocate resources and to assess performance. Management reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes
of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has two operating and reportable
segments. The Company consists of two types of operations. (1) AVX and Smart AVX (inclusive of the smart IoT Products sales under Smart
AVX) cooperatively run our LED and IoT Installation Services segment, which handles our LED and IoT installation and management
business specializing in high performance and easy to use LED and display systems, audio/video systems, home theaters, lighting control,
automation, and integration. This includes the Focus and Focus Shenzhen collectively operate our Corporate and R&D segment
focused on R&D development for the IoT, which involves the non-specific financing, executive expense, operations and investor relations
of our public entity, and the general shared management and costs across the Companys subsidiaries that spread across all functional
categories and research and development of these IoT technology products and of our smart products into the commercial and home automation
sectors. (2) Perfecular and Lusher jointly operate the SEC Financial Software segment, which involves the development, marketing, and
production of our SEC Financial Reporting AI-Driven Automation Software package and also includes our universal smart instruments and
devices in the hydroponic and controlled agriculture segments.
Asset information by operating segment is not
presented as the chief operating decision maker does not review this information by segment. The reporting segments follow the same accounting
policies used in the preparation of the Companys consolidated financial statements.
*Cash*
The Company considers all highly liquid investments
with a maturity of three months or less to be cash. At times, such investments may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC) insurance limit. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, approximately $7,441,498 and $2,781,560 of the Companys cash was not
insured by the FDIC. There were no cash equivalents held by the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
*Accounts Receivable*
The Company grants credit to clients that sell
the Companys products or engage in construction service under credit terms that it believes are customary in the industry and do
not require collateral to support customer receivables. The accounts receivable balances are generally collected within 30 to 90 days
of the product sale.
*Allowance for doubtful accounts*
The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful
accounts based on historical collection trends and review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible
that the Companys estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, allowance for
doubtful accounts amounted to $278,201 and $278,201, respectively.
| | F-9 | | |
*Concentrations of Credit Risk*
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company limits its exposure to credit
loss by investing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions.

*Inventory*
Inventory consists primarily of parts and finished
goods and is valued at the lower of the inventorys cost or net realizable value under the first-in-first-out method. Management
compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower. Inventory
allowances are recorded for obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on assumptions about future demand and marketability of products,
the impact of new product introductions and specific identification of items, such as discontinued products. These estimates could vary
significantly from actual requirements, for example, if future economic conditions, customer inventory levels or competitive conditions
differ from expectations. The Company regularly reviews the value of inventory based on historical usage and estimated future usage. If
estimated realized value of our inventory is less than cost, we make provisions in order to reduce the carrying value to its estimated
market value.
| | F-10 | | |
*Marketable Equity Securities*
The Company invests part of its excess treasury
cash in equity securities and money market funds according to company treasury and investment policies. Marketable securities represent
trading securities bought and held primarily for sale in the near-term to generate income on short-term price differences and are stated
at fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net.
*Property and Equipment*
Property and equipment are stated at cost. The
cost and accumulated depreciation of assets sold or retired are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is included
in earnings. Maintenance and repairs are expensed currently. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized. Depreciation is computed
using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

*Long-Lived Assets*
The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC
Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived
assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present
and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amounts. In that event,
a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived
assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Long-term assets
of the Company are reviewed when circumstances warrant as to whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers assets
to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also re-evaluates the
periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. Based on its
review at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company believes there was no impairment of its long-lived assets.
*Treasury stock*
**
Purchases and sales of treasury stock are accounted
for using the cost method. Under this method, shares acquired are recorded at the acquisition price directly to the treasury stock account.
Upon sale, the treasury stock account is reduced by the original acquisition price of the shares and any difference is recorded in additional
paid in capital, on a first-in first-out basis.
*Share-based Compensation*
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation
to employees in conformity with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Stock-Based Compensation. Stock-based compensation to employees consist
of stock options, grants, and restricted shares that are recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values at the date
of grant.
The measurement of stock-based compensation is
subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the period during which
services are received.
| | F-11 | | |
The Company calculates the fair value of option
grants utilizing the Black-Scholes pricing model and estimates the fair value of the stock based upon the estimated fair value of the
common stock. The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of the awards that
are ultimately expected to vest.
The resulting stock-based compensation expense
for both employee and non-employee awards is generally recognized on a straight- line basis over the requisite service period of the
award.
*Fair Value of Financial Instruments*
The Company follows paragraph ASC 825-10-50-10
for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph ASC 820-10-35-37 (Paragraph 820-10-35-37) to
measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
To increase consistency and comparability in fair
value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted
prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3)
levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
| 
| 
| 
Level 1: Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Level 3: Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data. | |
The following table summarize financial assets
and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

The carrying amount of the Companys financial
assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, inventories, other receivable, prepaid expenses, deposit, accounts and accrued
expenses, payable, treasury stock payable, other current liabilities, customer deposit, approximate their fair value because of the short
maturity of those instruments.
| | F-12 | | |
Transactions involving related parties cannot
be presumed to be carried out on an arms-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not
exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated
on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arms-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
*Comprehensive Income (Loss)*
Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenues,
expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from
net income (loss) as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders equity. Other comprehensive loss for
the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments.
*Revenue Recognition*
Revenue from the Company is recognized under Topic
606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its services and products to customers in return for expected consideration and
includes the following elements:
| 
| 
| 
executed contracts with the Companys customers that it believes are legally enforceable; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
identification of performance obligations in the respective contract; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation. | |
These five elements, as applied to each of the
Companys revenue category, is summarized below:
| 
| 
| 
Product sales revenue is recognized at the time of sale upon the delivery of the equipment to the customer and completion of performance obligation. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Service sales revenue is recognized based on the service been provided and the agreed upon performance obligation has been completed to the customer. | |
Revenue from our project construction is recognized
over time using the percentage-of-completion method under the cost approach. The percentage of completion is determined by estimating
stage of work completed. Under this approach, recognized contract revenue equals the total estimated contract revenue multiplied by the
percentage of completion. Our construction contracts are unit priced, and an account receivable is recorded for amounts invoiced based
on actual units produced. Currently, the software segment is not generating any revenue.
*Cost of Revenue, excluding depreciation & amortization*
Cost of revenue includes the cost of services,
labor and product incurred to provide product sales, service sales and project sales.
| | F-13 | | |
*Software Development Costs*
In accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software
to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, the Company expenses software development costs as research and development until technological feasibility
is established. Technological feasibility is established when the Company has completed all planning, designing, coding, and testing activities
that are necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design specifications, including functions, features, and
performance requirements. Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as research and development.
Subsequent to achieving technological feasibility,
and until the product is available for general release, the Company will capitalize qualifying development costs, which primarily include
payroll and related costs for employees directly involved in coding and testing, fees paid to third-party developers, and other direct
costs incurred to complete the software product. Capitalization ceases when the product is ready for release.
Capitalized software development costs will be
amortized on a product-by-product basis using the greater of (i) the ratio of current gross revenues to total anticipated gross revenues
or (ii) the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product, generally three to five years. Amortization expense
will be included in cost of revenues. Capitalized software will be reviewed for impairment when indicators of loss are present.
*Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock*
The Company accounts for its Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and related SEC guidance for
redeemable equity instruments.
The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock contains
redemption features that are exercisable at the option of the holders and upon the occurrence of certain events that are not solely within
the Companys control. Accordingly, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is classified as temporary equity and presented outside
of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets.
The preferred stock is initially recorded at its
issuance date carrying amount, net of directly attributable issuance costs. The Company subsequently adjusts the carrying amount of the
redeemable preferred stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Changes in redemption value are recognized
immediately as they occur through charges or credits to additional paid-in capital (or accumulated deficit if additional paid-in capital
is not available).
Upon conversion of the preferred stock into common
stock, the related carrying amount is reclassified to stockholders equity.
*Research and development*
Research and development costs are expensed as
incurred. Research and development costs primarily consist of efforts to refine existing product models and develop new product models.
*Income Tax Provision*
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby
deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary
differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred
tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, the Company does not foresee generating taxable income
in the near future and utilizing its deferred tax asset, therefore, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred
tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on
the date of enactment.
Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as
a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination
being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized
on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than not test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company has
no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset
and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in recognizing certain income, expense and credit items
for financial reporting purposes and tax reporting purposes. Such deferred income taxes primarily relate to the difference between the
tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying
enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized.
There was no material deferred tax asset or liabilities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company
did not identify any material uncertain
tax positions.

*Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share*
Net income (loss) per share is computed pursuant
to ASC 260-10-45. Basic net income (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of shares of stock and potentially outstanding shares of stock during the period to reflect the
potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent shares issuance arrangement, stock options or warrants.
Due to the net loss incurred by the Company, potentially
dilutive instruments would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss for all periods presented.
The following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion
would be anti-dilutive.

*Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions*
The reporting and functional currency of Focus
is the USD. The functional currency of Focus Universal (Shenzhen) Technology Co. LTD, a wholly owned subsidiary of Focus located in China,
is the Renminbi (RMB).
For financial reporting purposes, the financial
statements of the Companys Chinese subsidiary, which are prepared using the RMB, are translated into the Companys reporting
currency, USD.Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are
translated using average exchange rates prevailing during each reporting period. Stockholders equity is translated at historical
exchange rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss
in stockholders equity.
Transactions denominated in currencies other than
the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
The resulting exchange difference, presented as foreign currency transaction loss, is included in the accompanying consolidated statements
of operations. The exchange rates used for consolidated financial statements are as follows:

*Going Concern*
The Company has assessed its ability to continue
as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The Company has
a net loss of $4,787,769 and $3,200,138 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, the Company had an
accumulated deficit of $31,023,411 and $25,782,308 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and negative cash flow from operating
activities of $5,102,771 and $4,656,754 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Substantial doubt about the Companys
ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable
that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year from the financial statement issuance date.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of
the Company as a going concern. The Company currently suffered recurring losses from operations, generated negative cash flow from operating
activities, has an accumulated deficit and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover
operating costs over an extended period of time. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.
These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset
amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
| | F-15 | | |
At December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and
cash equivalents, and short-term investments, in the amount of $7,957,845. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on
the Company attaining and maintaining profitable operations in the future and raising additional capital to meet its obligations and repay
its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Since inception, the Company has funded its operations primarily
through equity and debt financings, and it expects to continue to rely on these sources of capital in the future. No assurance can be
given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even
if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing,
or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing, or grant unfavorable terms in future licensing agreements.
**Reverse Stock Splits**
****
On January 31, 2025, we effected a 10 for 1 reverse
stock split of the Companys authorized stock and issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock by filing a Certificate of Change
pursuant to pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) Section 78.209. 
On February 9, 2026, we effected a 10
for 1 reverse stock split of the Companys issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock by filing an Amendment to the
Articles of Incorporation. All share and per share amounts were retroactively adjusted to reflect this split as if it occurred at the earliest
period presented.

**Note 3 Recent Accounting Pronouncement**
In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income
StatementReporting Comprehensive IncomeExpense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement
Expenses. The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to disclose in the notes to the financial statements, among other
things, specific information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation
and amortization expense for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. The update is effective for annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is
permitted, and the amendments may be applied prospectively to reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to all periods
presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing the potential impact
on our financial statement disclosures.
Management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting
pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

6 Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock (Temporary Equity)**
On October 21, 2025, the Company entered into
a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with Spartan Capital Securities, LLC (Spartan), pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, the Investors committed to purchase up to $7,000,000 or 8,236 shares (the
Commitment Amount) of the Companys Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Series
B Preferred Stock) at a price per share of $850.00 (the Series B Private Placement), which represents a 15% original
issuance discount. There were three Closings: (i) $3,000,000 for the purchase of the Series B Preferred Stock funded at the Initial Closing;
(ii) $1,000,000 for the purchase of the Series B Preferred Stock funded on the date the Company files: (a) the Registration Statement
on Form S-1 required by and pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, and (b) the Information Statement with the SEC; and (iii)
$3,000,000 for the purchase of the Series B Preferred Stock funded within two (2) Business Days after: (a) such Registration Statement
is declared effective by the SEC, and (b) the Information Statement has become effective under Rule 14c-2. The Company received net proceeds
of $6,320,000
on December 19, 2025. The proceeds were net of closing costs of $680,000
which was recorded as a discount and will be amortized over the earliest date of the redemption period. On December 5, 2025, the Company
filed the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, Preferences, and Rights of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that
had the effect of altering the conversion price and floor price calculations of the Series B Preferred Stock in the event that the Company
approves a subdivision, reverse stock split, or similar transaction. The amendment to Series B Designation also provided for voluntary
redemption rights at the option of the holder of Series B Preferred Stock and upon the occurrence of events outside the Companys
control. On or after January 19, 2026, and for a period of two years thereafter, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series B shares held by them during
specified periods within the redemption window. The initial redemption period will last ninety days, beginning on January 19, 2026. Subsequent
redemption periods will each last thirty days and commence on the following dates: (i) July 1, 2026; (ii) October 1, 2026; (iii) December
1, 2026; (iv) July 1, 2027; (v) October 1, 2027; and (vi) December 1, 2027.
The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock
may, at any time and from time to time, require the Company to convert their Series B Preferred Stock shares into common stock. The
conversion price shall be equal to 85% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Companys common stock
during the ten trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date or other determination date, subject to the
adjustments set forth herein. In no event, however, shall the conversion price be less than the floor price of $7.84. The Company
classifies the Series B Preferred Stock outside of permanent equity (as temporary equity within the mezzanine section between
liabilities and equity on the consolidated balance sheets) since the redemption of such shares is not solely within the
Companys control. During the year ended December 31, 2025, 973
shares of Series B Preferred Stock were converted into 93,926
shares of common stock, and there was an accretion of the discount of $453,334
which has been reflected as an addition to the net loss allocated to common stockholders. At December 31, 2025, 7,263 shares of the
Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding and the Series B Preferred Stock has been recorded at its redemption value of
$5,946,284. See note 13 for subsequent redemption demand.

**Note 10 ****Segment reporting**
The Company currently has two operating segments.
In accordance with ASC 280, *Segment Reporting*(ASC 280), the Company considers operating segments to be components
of the Companys business for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by Management in deciding
how to allocate resources and to assess performance. Management reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes
of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has two operating and reportable
segments. The Company consists of two types of operations. (1) AVX and Smart AVX (inclusive of the smart IoT Products sales under Smart
AVX) cooperatively run our LED and IoT Installation Services segment, which handles our LED and IoT installation and management
business specializing in high performance and easy to use LED and display systems, audio/video systems, home theaters, lighting control,
automation, and integration. This includes the Focus and Focus Shenzhen collectively operate our Corporate and R&D segment
focused on R&D development for the IoT, which involves the non-specific financing, executive expense, operations and investor relations
of our public entity, and the general shared management and costs across the Companys subsidiaries that spread across all functional
categories and research and development of these IoT technology products and of our smart products into the commercial and home automation
sectors. (2) Perfecular and Lusher jointly operate the SEC Financial Software segment, which involves the development, marketing, and
production of our SEC Financial Reporting AI-Driven Automation Software package and also includes our universal smart instruments and
devices in the hydroponic and controlled agriculture segments.
Asset information by operating segment is not
presented as the Chief Executive Officer does not review this information by segment. The reporting segments follow the same accounting
policies used in the preparation of the Companys consolidated financial statements. The management team reviews financial information
on a consolidated level and allocates resources based on net loss, which also serves as the key metric for evaluating financial performance.
The following tables summarize the financial information
of each operating segment of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025:

**Note 11 Contingencies**
****
On July 16, 2025, a former engineer filed a claim
against Focus Shenzhen, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in the Shenzhen Qianhai Cooperation Zone Peoples Court, alleging
wrongful termination and other violations of the China Labor Code. The Company is currently investigating the matter and intends to vigorously
defend itself. The case has been stayed pending a status conference. However, litigation and investigations are inherently uncertain.
At present, the Shenzhen Qianhai Cooperation Zone Peoples Court has frozen approximately $23,703 (RMB 165,802) in Focus Shenzhens
bank account. While the outcome remains uncertain, it could have a material impact on the Company.
**Note 12 Income taxes**
*The United States of America*
The Company is subject to taxation in the United
States and certain state jurisdictions. The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be provided by applying the
statutory federal income tax rate of 21% to the net loss before provision for income taxes. Accordingly, the Company reevaluated its deferred
tax assets on net operating loss carryforward in the U.S. As of December 31, 2024, due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization,
the Company recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets based upon managements assessment as to their realization.
**
*Peoples Republic of China*
Effective January 1, 2008, the New Taxation Law
of PRC stipulates that domestic enterprises and foreign invested enterprises (the FIEs) are subject to a uniform tax rate
of 25%. Under the PRC tax law, companies are required to make quarterly estimate payments based on 25% tax rate; companies that received
preferential tax rates are also required to use a 25% tax rate for their installment tax payments. The overpayment, however, will not
be refunded and can only be used to offset future tax liabilities.
Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory
federal income tax rate, primarily as a result of the changes in valuation allowance, nondeductible permanent differences, credits, and
state income taxes.
| | F-24 | | |
A reconciliation of the federal statutory income
tax to our effective income tax is as follows:

The Company recognizes valuation allowances to
reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The Companys net deferred income tax asset
is not more likely than not to be realized due to the lack of sufficient sources of future taxable income and cumulative losses that have
resulted over the years. During the year ended December 31, 2025 the valuation allowance increased by $1,364,568.
As of December 31, 2025, we had cumulative net
operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes of $28,597,946, and available tax credit carryforwards of approximately
$739,597 for federal income tax purposes, which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The federal net operating loss
carryforwards consists of $23,821,513 of losses incurred prior to January 1, 2025 and which can be used to offset 100% of future taxable
income and, $1,364,568 of losses incurred after January 1, 2025, which can be used to offset up to 80% of taxable income in subsequent
years.

**Note 13 Subsequent Events**
**
In January 2026, Focus Universal (Shenzhen) Technology
Co., Ltd. entered into two thirty-six-month commercial leases with a third party for office spaces of approximately 3,700 and 4,230 square
feet. The first lease commenced on January 31, 2026 and will expire on January 30, 2029, with a monthly rent of RMB 14,612 (approximately
$2,033). The second lease commenced on February 1, 2026 and will expire on January 31, 2029, with a monthly rent of RMB 24,771 (approximately
$3,447). The Companys incremental borrowing rate for these leases is 10%, representing the rate it would incur on a collateralized
basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments over a similar term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the
lease term.
On January 19, 2026, the Company received
requests for redemption (the Redemption Notice) from the holders of the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock). Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock, as
amended, the holders of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock have the option to require the Company, to redeem all or
less than all of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. From the date the Company receives the Redemption Notice, the
Company had 20 trading days (the Time Period) to redeem the shares of Series B Preferred Stock set forth in the notice
for a price equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock subject to such redemption.
Since the Company has received the Redemption Notice, the Time Period the Company had to redeem the shares of Series B Preferred
Stock has since lapsed. As provided in the Certificate of Designation, with respect to redemption, the Company must comply with
Nevada state law, which prohibits certain distributions or redemptions. Therefore, management of the Company took the position that
under Nevada law, the Series B Transaction documents do not require them to redeem the Series B holders under the specific
conditions demanded by the investors. As of March 16, 2026, a total of 6,447 shares of Series B Preferred Stock or an aggregate of
$5,479,950 remain subject to redemption. On February 19, 2026, the Series B investors sent a redemption demand letter for 3,716
outstanding Series B Preferred shares, totaling $3,158,600. This demand letter was subsequently rescinded while the investors and
management attempted to negotiate a settlement. On March 17, 2026, after the parties could not successfully negotiate a settlement,
the Series B holders renewed their redemption requests by emailing Company management a notice of default. The Company has engaged external advisors to assist in discussions
with the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and is currently engaged in ongoing negotiations to determine the most appropriate resolution
that maximizes value for all stockholders. In addition, management is actively working to identify potential buyers to purchase the Series
B Preferred Stock from holders seeking redemption on mutually acceptable terms.

On January 21, 2026, the Company entered into
a purchase, sale, and escrow agreement with 901 Corporate Center, LP to acquire a 100,743 sq. ft. office and commercial building, along

$525,000. The escrow was initially scheduled to close within sixty days of opening escrow. The $525,000 deposit was placed into the escrow
account on January 26, 2026. Both parties have executed several amendments to extend the closing date from February to March 2026. Subsequently,
on March 20, 2026, the parties entered into a fifth amendment extending the contingency period to April 10, 2026. At this point in time,
the Company has made significant progress towards financing, however there is no assurance that the financing will be completed or that
it will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
On January 22, 2026, the Company entered into
a Standard Industrial/Commercial Single-Tenant Lease (the Lease) with the Cameron Court, L.P. to lease the Company premises
located at 1515 W Cameron Ave., Ste 210, West Covina, CA 91790 on a month-to-month basis. The commercial property consists of a total
office space of 3,546 square feet.
In January 2026, the Company repurchased 16,890
shares of its common stock for $154,618 in the public market at average price of $9.15 and placed them in treasury.
On February 2, 2026, the Company founded a wholly
owned subsidiary named Lusher Holding LLC. Lusher Holding LLC was established to provide commercial real estate property management services.
As of the filing date, its activities are still in the introductory phase.
On February 27, 2026, the Company was informed
of the unexpected death of Chairman Edward Lee, who passed away on February 26, 2026. Dr. Lee served as a director since 2015 and was,
at the time of his passing, Chairman of our Board. The Company is grateful for Dr. Lees service and leadership over the years.
On March 27, 2026, our Board unanimously approved
to appoint Michael Pope as the Chairman of the Board of Directors and appoint the Companys CFO, Irving Kau, as director until the
next annual meeting of shareholders.

and procedures (as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2025, our Principal Executive
Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable
assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated
to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
**Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal
Controls**
Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods
are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. These include
the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures
such as simple errors or mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established process. Therefore, even those systems determined to
be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent
limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal
control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process.
**Managements Report on Internal Control
over Financial Reporting**
Our management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule
13a-15(f). Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework
in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO
Framework). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
| | 41 | | |
As of December31, 2025, management assessed
the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial
reporting established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework of 2013 issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation under this framework, our management
concluded that as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of the following material
weaknesses:
| 
| 
| 
Due to our small number of employees and resources, we have limited segregation of duties, as a result of which there is insufficient independent review of duties performed. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Due to our small number of employees and resources, we have limited segregation of duties, as a result of which do not have the ability to implement internal controls over the granting of access to our IT environment. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
As a result of the limited number of accounting personnel, we rely on inexperienced staff and outside consultants for the preparation of our financial reports, including tax preparation, which could require adjustments and lead to overlooking items requiring disclosure.As a result, we had ineffective controls over our financial statement closing and reporting process. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
As a result of the Companys limited financial and personnel resources, there may be difficulties in timely analyzing and identifying potential operational and disclosure transactions within management and to comply with financial reporting regulations. | |
We are working to remediate the deficiencies and
material weaknesses. Our remediation efforts are ongoing, and we will continue our initiatives to implement and document policies, procedures,
and internal controls. We have taken steps to enhance our internal control environment and plan to take additional steps to remediate
the deficiencies and address material weaknesses. In addition, we continue to evaluate, remediate and improve our internal control
over financial reporting, executive management may elect to implement additional measures to address control deficiencies or may determine
that the remediation efforts described above require modification. Executive management, in consultation with and at the direction of
our Audit Committee, will continue to assess the control environment and the above-mentioned efforts to remediate the underlying causes
of the identified material weaknesses.
Although we plan to complete this remediation
process as quickly as possible, we are unable, at this time to estimate how long it will take; and our efforts may not be successful in
remediating the deficiencies or material weaknesses.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation
report of the Companys independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements
report was not subject to attestation by the Companys independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC
that permit the company to provide only managements report on internal control in this annual report.
**Changes in Internal Controls**
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rules13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the period ended December 31, 2025 that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial
reporting.

| | 44 | | |
*Committees of our Board of Directors*
Our Board of Directors has established and delegated
certain responsibilities to its standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
Audit Committee
We have a separately designated standing Audit
Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The Audit Committees primary duties and responsibilities
include monitoring the integrity of our financial statements, monitoring the independence and performance of our external auditors, and
monitoring our compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The functions of the Audit Committee also include reviewing
periodically with our independent registered public accounting firm the performance of the services for which they are engaged, including
reviewing the scope of the annual audit and its results, reviewing with management and the auditors the adequacy of our internal accounting
controls, reviewing with management and the auditors the financial results prior to the filing of quarterly and annual reports, reviewing
fees charged by our independent registered public accounting firm and reviewing any transactions between our Company and related parties.
Our independent registered public accounting firm reports directly and is accountable solely to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee
has the sole authority to hire and fire the independent registered public accounting firm and is responsible for the oversight of the
performance of their duties, including ensuring the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee
also approves in advance the retention of, and all fees to be paid to, the independent registered public accounting firm. The rendering
of any auditing services and all non-auditing services by the independent registered public accounting firm is subject to prior approval
of the Audit Committee.
The Audit Committee operates under a written charter.
The Audit Committee is required to be composed of directors who are independent under the rules of the SEC and the listing standards of
The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (NASDAQ).
The current members of the Audit Committee are
directors Michael Pope, the Chairperson of the Audit Committee, Ms. Carine Clark, and Mr. Sean Warren, all of whom have been determined
by the Board of Directors to be independent under the NASDAQ listing standards and rules adopted by the SEC applicable to audit committee
members. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Michael Pope qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under
the rules adopted by the SEC and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Audit Committee met four times during 2025.
Compensation Committee
The primary duties and responsibilities of our
standing Compensation Committee are to review, modify and approve the overall compensation policies for the Company, including the compensation
of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and other senior management; establish and assess the adequacy of director compensation;
and approve the adoption, amendment and termination of the Companys stock option plans, pension and profit-sharing plans, bonus
plans and similar programs. The Compensation Committee may delegate to one or more officers the authority to make grants of options and
restricted stock to eligible individuals other than officers and directors, subject to certain limitations. Additionally, the Compensation
Committee has the authority to form subcommittees and to delegate authority to any such subcommittee. The Compensation Committee also
has the authority, in its sole discretion, to select, retain and obtain, at the expense of the Company, advice and assistance from internal
or external legal, accounting or other advisors and consultants. Moreover, the Compensation Committee has sole authority to retain and
terminate any compensation consultant to assist in the evaluation of director, Chief Executive Officer or senior executive compensation,
including sole authority to approve such consultants reasonable fees and other retention terms, all at the Companys expense.
The Compensation Committee operates under a written
charter. All members of the Compensation Committee must satisfy the independence requirements of NASDAQ applicable to compensation committee
members.
The Compensation Committee currently consists
of directors Ms. Carine Clark, Mr. Sean Warren, and Mr. Michael Pope. Ms. Carine Clark is the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.
Each of the Compensation Committee members has been determined by the Board of Directors to be independent under NASDAQ listing standards
applicable to compensation committee members. The Compensation Committee met four times during 2025.
| | 45 | | |
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
identifies, reviews, and evaluates candidates to serve on the Board; reviews and assesses the performance of the Board of Directors and
the committees of the Board; and assesses the independence of our directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is also
responsible for reviewing the composition of the Boards committees and making recommendations to the entire Board of Directors
regarding the chairpersonship and membership of each committee. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible
for developing corporate governance principles and periodically reviewing and assessing such principles, as well as periodically reviewing
the Companys policy statements to determine their adherence to the Companys Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
has adopted a charter that identifies the procedures whereby Board of Director candidates are identified primarily through suggestions
made by directors, management, and stockholders of the Company. We have implemented no material changes in the past year to the procedures
by which stockholders may recommend nominees for the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director nominees
recommended by stockholders that are submitted in writing to the Companys Corporate Secretary in a timely manner and which provide
necessary biographical and business experience information regarding the nominee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does
not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the criteria considered by the Nominating Committee, based
on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder. The Board of Directors does not prescribe any minimum qualifications
for director candidates, and all candidates for director will be evaluated based on their qualifications, diversity, age, skill and such
other factors as deemed appropriate by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee given the current needs of the Board of Directors,
the committees of the Board of Directors and the Company. Although the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a specific
policy on diversity, it considers the criteria noted above in selecting nominees for directors, including members from diverse backgrounds
who combine a broad spectrum of experience and expertise. Absent other factors which may be material to its evaluation of a candidate,
the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee expects to recommend to the Board of Directors for selection incumbent directors who
express an interest in continuing to serve on the Board. Following its evaluation of a proposed directors candidacy, the Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation as to whether the Board of Directors should nominate the proposed director
candidate for election by the stockholders of the Company.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
operates under a written charter. No member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may be an employee of the Company, and
each member must satisfy the independence requirements of NASDAQ and the SEC.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
currently consists of directors Mr. Sean Warren, who is the Chairperson of the committee, Mr. Michael Pope and Ms. Carine Clark. Each
of the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has been determined by the Board of Directors to be independent under
NASDAQ listing standards. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met four times in 2025.
**Oversight of Risk Management**
Risk is inherent with every business, and how
well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including economic risks, financial risks,
legal and regulatory risks and others, such as the impact of competition. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the
risks that we face, while our Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In
its risk oversight role, our Board of Directors is responsible for satisfying itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented
by management are adequate and functioning as designed. Our Board of Directors assesses major risks facing our Company and options for
their mitigation to promote our stockholders interests in the long-term health of our Company and our overall success and financial
strength. A fundamental part of risk management is not only understanding the risks a company faces and what steps management is taking
to manage those risks, but also understanding what level of risk is appropriate for us. The involvement of our full Board of Directors
in the risk oversight process allows our Board of Directors to assess managements appetite for risk and also determine what constitutes
an appropriate level of risk for our Company. Our Board of Directors regularly includes agenda items at its meetings relating to its risk
oversight role and meets with various members of management on a range of topics, including corporate governance and regulatory obligations,
operations and significant transactions, risk management, insurance, pending and threatened litigation and significant commercial disputes.
| | 46 | | |
While our Board of Directors is ultimately responsible
for risk oversight, various committees of our Board of Directors oversee risk management in their respective areas and regularly report
on their activities to our entire Board of Directors. In particular, the Audit Committee has the primary responsibility for the oversight
of financial risks facing our Company. The Audit Committees charter provides that it will discuss our major financial risk exposures
and the steps we have taken to monitor and control such exposures. Our Board of Directors has also delegated primary responsibility for
the oversight of all executive compensation and our employee benefit programs to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee
strives to create incentives that encourage a level of risk-taking behavior consistent with our business strategy.
We believe the division of risk management responsibilities
described above is an effective approach for addressing the risks facing our Company and that our Boards leadership structure provides
appropriate checks and balances against undue risk taking.
**Code of Business Conduct and Ethics**
Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of ethical
conduct that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and senior financial management. This code of ethical
conduct is embodied within our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to all persons associated with our Company, including
our directors, officers, and employees (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer
and controller). To satisfy our disclosure requirements under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K, we will disclose amendments to, or waivers of, certain
provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics relating to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief accounting
officer, controller or persons performing similar functions on our website promptly following the adoption of any such amendment or waiver.
The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics provides that any waivers of, or changes to, the code that apply to the Companys executive
officers or directors may be made only by the Audit Committee. In addition, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics includes updated procedures
for non-executive officer employees to seek waivers of the code.
**Director Independence**
Our Company is governed by our Board. Currently,
each member of our Board, other than Dr. Desheng Wang and Irving Kau, are an independent director; and all standing committees of our
Board of Directors are composed entirely of independent directors, in each case under NASDAQs independence definition applicable
to boards of directors. For a director to be considered independent, our Board of Directors must determine that the director has no relationship
which, in the opinion of our Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of
a director. Members of the Audit Committee also must satisfy a separate SEC independence requirement, which provides that they may not
accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from us or any of our subsidiaries other than their directors
compensation. In addition, under SEC rules, an Audit Committee member who is an affiliate of the issuer (other than through service as
a director) cannot be deemed to be independent. In determining the independence of members of the Compensation Committee, NASDAQ listing
standards require our Board of Directors to consider certain factors, including, but not limited to: (1) the source of compensation of
the director, including any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee paid by us to the director, and (2) whether the director is
affiliated with us, one of our subsidiaries or an affiliate of one of our subsidiaries. Under our Compensation Committee Charter, members
of the Compensation Committee also must qualify as outside directors for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and as non-employee directors for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange
Act. The independent members of the Board of Directors are Michael Pope, Sean Warren, and Carine Clark.

**Narrative Disclosure Requirement Regarding
Awards of Options**
****
The Board of Directors and Compensation Committee
generally have approved equity grants (including stock options) to our directors at their meetings in or around December of each fiscal
year for the next fiscal year. The equity awards usually are granted on the first trading day of the new fiscal year. The dates for those
Board and Committee meetings generally are set a year in advance and on a fairly consistent cadence year over year.
**Granting of Certain Equity Awards Close
in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information**
We
do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic informationthat is likely to result in changes
to the price of our common stock, and do not time the public release of such information based on award grant dates.During the
last completed fiscal year, we have not made awards to any named executive officer or director during the period beginning four
business days before and ending one business day after the filing of a period report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or the filing or
furnishing of a current report on Form 8-K, and we have not timed the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose
of affecting the value of executive compensation.

(1) Applicable percentage of ownership is based
on 1,025,135 shares of common stock outstanding on March 25, 2026. Percentage ownership is determined based on shares owned together with
securities exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock within 60 days of March 25, 2026, for each stockholder. Beneficial ownership
is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares
of common stock subject to securities exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock that are currently exercisable or exercisable
within 60 days of March 25, 2026, are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding such securities for the purpose of computing
the percentage of ownership of such person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of
any other person. Our common stock is our only issued and outstanding class of securities eligible to vote.
(2) On February 26, 2026, Dr. Edward Lee, who
was our Chairman and Director, passed away and he is survived by his wife, Jennifer Gu, who until further notice, is likely the beneficial
owner of Dr. Lees holdings.
(3) As of March 25, 2026, there were 234,048 shares
of common stock outstanding owned or exercisable by our officers and directors.

**Item 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE**

if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Our director Irving Kau is also our Chief Financial Officer;
our director Desheng Wang is also our Chief Executive Officer. The rest of our directors are independent directors.
**Item 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES**
On January 12, 2024, the Company notified the
Former Auditor that the Company is dismissing it as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company. On January 5, 2024,
the Company engaged Weinberg & Company, P.A. (the New Auditor) as its independent PCAOB registered public accounting
firm for the Companys fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and 2025. The recommendation to engage the New Auditor as the Companys
independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Companys Audit Committee and the Companys Board of Directors
as it being in the best interests of the Company.
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024,
we incurred fees as discussed below:

fees represent fees related to preparation of our corporation income tax returns. Our policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible
non-audit services performed by the independent accountants. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services
and other services.
