• Deepening Financial Losses

  Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025, decreased by 57% to $7.76 million, and the net loss more than doubled to $(6.20) million compared to the prior year period. The six-month net loss widened to $(10.23) million.

• Substantial Doubt About Going Concern

  The company explicitly stated that its financial results and position as of June 30, 2025, raise 'substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern,' despite management's assertion of recent positive steps.

• Multiple Loan Defaults and Lawsuits

  Disclosed defaults on loans with Gemini Finance Corp. (leading to asset foreclosure and a $1.48 million lawsuit settlement via stock issuance) and Grow Hill, LLC (resulting in a $2.1 million lawsuit for breach of contract and fraud). The company is also in payment default on a $395,556 promissory note issued to J Brrothers LLC and faces default judgments from RK Mechanical LLC ($1.51 million) and Action Equipment ($380,932).

• Ongoing Nasdaq Delisting Threats

  The company continues to face multiple Nasdaq listing deficiencies, including failure to file periodic reports, maintain minimum stockholders' equity, meet the minimum bid price, and hold an annual meeting. Nasdaq has granted repeated extensions, with current deadlines set for February 17, 2026, and February 24, 2026.

This 10-Q filing reveals a company in severe financial distress, confirming and elaborating on the critical issues previously hinted at in recent 8-K filings. The financial results for the period ended June 30, 2025, show a significant decline in revenue and a substantial increase in net losses, leading to an explicit 'substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.' The subsequent events section details a cascade of negative developments, including multiple loan defaults, asset sales, and ongoing lawsuits, which have further eroded the company's financial position. The company is also battling severe Nasdaq compliance issues, facing potential delisting due to deficiencies in timely filings, minimum stockholders' equity, minimum bid price, and failure to hold an annual meeting. In a desperate attempt to survive, urban-gro has engaged in highly dilutive financing activities, including a private placement and a proposed reverse merger with Flash Sports & Media, Inc., which would result in existing shareholders owning only approximately 10% of the combined entity. The recent 1-for-25 reverse stock split is another indicator of the company's precarious position. Investors should be aware of the extreme risks, including potential delisting and near-total dilution, associated with this company.
