  The company reiterated substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, with only $216,366 in cash and a $142,609 quarterly operating cash burn, indicating a very short cash runway.

• Ineffective Internal Controls

  Management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026, citing material weaknesses including limited formalized controls, lack of an audit committee, and inadequate segregation of duties.

• Matured Related-Party Debt Unpaid

  Two promissory notes totaling $500,000 from a related party matured in May 2026 and remain outstanding, adding immediate liquidity pressure to the company's precarious financial position.

• Net Income Driven by Non-Cash Gain

  A reported net income of $177,803 for the quarter was primarily due to a non-cash gain of $706,056 on derivative liability remeasurement, masking an underlying cash-basis operating loss of $171,199.
