All forward-looking statements included in this report are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and, except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth herein under Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this report. See also “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” beginning on page 1 of this report.
Removed
The following should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this report. Overview We are an AI technology and consumer electronics holding company with two primary business units – SemiCab and Singing Machine. SemiCab is an AI-enabled software logistics business operated through our subsidiary, SemiCab Holdings, LLC.
Removed
Singing Machine is a home karaoke consumer products business that designs and distributes karaoke products globally to retailers and ecommerce partners through our subsidiary, The Singing Machine Company, Inc. SemiCab SemiCab is a cloud-based Collaborative Transportation Platform built to achieve the scalability required to predict and optimize loads and the use of trucks.
Removed
To orchestrate collaboration across manufacturers, retailers, distributors, and their carriers, SemiCab uses real-time data from API-based load tendering and pre-built integrations with TMS and ELD partners. To build fully loaded round trips, SemiCab uses AI/ML techniques and advanced predictive optimization models. Since 2020, SemiCab has enabled major retailers, brands and transportation providers to address their transportation needs.
Removed
SemiCab’s Orchestrated Collaboration™ AI model has proven to increase transportation capacity, improve asset utilization, reduce empty miles, lower logistics costs, and provide visibility into the entire transportation network. Models show that the technology has the capability of reducing costs through optimization. Additionally, SemiCab’s technology has the potential to play a key role in the improved sustainability model.
Removed
Based on its proven ability to improve truck utilization rates, this could result in a dramatic reduction in the carbon footprint of the industry. The optimization of existing truck utilization can add trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles which addresses common problems plaguing the industry like severe driver shortage and road congestion.
Removed
Trucking optimization could also reduce carbon emissions attributable to road freight. Singing Machine Through Singing Machine, we engage in the development, marketing, and sale of consumer karaoke audio equipment, accessories, and musical recordings.
Removed
We are a leading global karaoke and music entertainment company that specializes in the design and production of quality karaoke and music enabled consumer products for adults and children.
Removed
Our products are among the most widely available karaoke products internationally. 48 Our mission is to “create joy through music.” To deliver on this mission, we are focused on a multi-prong approach. In the short-term, we seek to improve profitability by optimizing operations and continue to expand gross margins.
Removed
In the mid-to-long-term, we seek to continue to expand our business into new verticals including automotive and connected-TV devices and grow our global distribution for our consumer karaoke products. Recent Corporate Events Change in Fiscal Year During 2023, our board of directors approved a change in our fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31.
Removed
In accordance with SEC regulations, our consolidated financial statements are comprised of our balance sheets at December 31, 2024 and 2023 and our statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023.
Removed
As a result, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is comparing our results of operations for the full year ended December 31, 2024 with our results of operations for only the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023.

Name and Symbol Change Effective September 5, 2024, our Certificate of Incorporation was amended to change our name from “The Singing Machine Company, Inc.” to “Algorhythm Holdings, Inc.” In addition, effective September 8, 2024, our ticker symbol was changed from “MICS” to “RIME.” Reverse Stock Split and Increase in Authorized Shares On January 13, 2025, our stockholders voted to authorize our board of directors to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of our common stock at a specific ratio within a range of 1-for-10 to a maximum of 1-for-250 and to amend our certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized common stock from 100,000,000 to 800,000,000 shares.

On January 14, 2025, our board of directors approved a reverse stock split of 1-for-200 ratio and approved the filing of a certificate of amendment to our certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split and to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 800,000,000. The reverse stock split took effect on February 10, 2025.
Removed
In accordance with SEC rules and regulations, all share numbers and prices throughout this report and our consolidated financial statements reflect post-reverse stock split numbers. Strategy Our SemiCab and Singing Machine businesses are each in very different stages of development.
Removed
Accordingly, our plans for growing each of them are very different. 49 SemiCab is an early-stage business that is not yet contributing a material amount of revenue to us. We intend to invest in our SemiCab business to develop and grow it into a significant revenue producer for us.
Removed
This will involve investments in the continued research and development of its technology, the hiring of additional qualified employees, marketing and advertising initiatives, and back-office support. While SemiCab is a nascent business, it has already acquired some multinational consumer products companies as customers.
Removed
We believe that as existing customers experience the benefits of our SemiCab logistics and distribution solutions, they will begin to increase their use of SemiCab.
Removed
We also believe that SemiCab’s proven ability to improve truck utilization rates and improve trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles will be of substantial interest to additional companies that can benefit from SemiCab. We acquired the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024.
Removed
We may make additional investments in companies operating in the AI distribution and logistics space that we believe are complementary to our SemiCab business. Our investments could involve an acquisition of the assets or equity of complementary companies or businesses, or could involve a strategic partnership or joint venture with complementary companies or businesses.
Removed
We believe that additional investments could provide us with new AI logistics and distribution technologies, services and resources that we can implement across our entire SemiCab business, or could help us to more quickly expand our SemiCab footprint into other parts of the world.
Removed
We are actively evaluating additional opportunities to expand our SemiCab business through investments in complementary AI logistics and distribution businesses and companies. In contrast to our SemiCab business, our Singing Machine business has been successfully operating worldwide for decades. Our karaoke products are well-known and established with retailers and consumers in the countries in which we sell them.
Removed
Our plan for Singing Machine is to continue to focus on customer retention through loyalty programs for the online and brick-and-mortar retailers offering our products and compelling offer promotions, discounts, and special deals to attract customers and increase conversions.
Removed
We also intend to reduce costs through overhead trimming and the use of new selling and marketing methodologies, leverage data analytics to better understand new trends in consumer preferences for our products, explore new product features and product offerings, and support our new and existing products with fun and exciting digital marketing and advertising initiatives.
Removed
We may also explore entering new markets that may offer more profitable avenues for our products. Financial Results We generated net sales of $23,494,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $29,198,000 for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023.
Removed
The decrease was primarily due to decreases in sales to Walmart that resulted from us not participating in Walmart’s national Black Friday promotion and decreases in sales due to the loss of retail shelf space at Target.
Removed
Gross profit decreased $1,409,000 to $4,781,000, or 20.4% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $6,190,000, or 21.2% of net sales, for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023.
Removed
The decrease was due primarily to the decrease of $5,704,000 for net sales, partially offset by a corresponding decrease of $4,295,000 for cost of goods sold associated with less products being manufactured for sale.
Removed
Our operating expenses increased $6,373,000 to $18,706,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 from $12,333,000 for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses incurred for the growth and development of our SemiCab business, a loss on the issuance of warrants incurred in connection with our December 2024 public offering of securities, legal and accounting expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition of SemiCab, Inc.’s business in July 2024 and the capital raising activities that we engaged in during 2024, and impairment of goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of the SemiCab, Inc.’s business.
Removed
As a result, we incurred a loss from operations of $13,925,000 during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Removed
We generated net losses available to common stockholders of $23,257,000, or $353.87 per share of common stock, for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $6,398,000, or $263.04 per share of common stock, for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023. We had total assets of $18,302,000 and $27,715,000 at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Removed
Net cash used by operating activities was $8,556,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $411,000 for the nine- month transition period ended December 31, 2023. 50 The most significant contributors to the increase in our net loss available to common stockholders were a one-time, non-cash charge of $3,592,000 for impairment of goodwill and a one-time, non-cash loss of $8,889,000 on the issuance of warrants.
Removed
We incurred a one-time, non-cash charge of $3,592,000 for impairment of goodwill in connection with our acquisition of SemiCab, Inc.’s business on July 3, 2024. We tested the recorded amount of goodwill for impairment on December 31, 2024 to see if the carrying amount of goodwill exceeded its carried value.
Removed
We calculated a market-based valuation utilizing inputs classified as level 3 on the fair value hierarchy by multiplying one by projected 2025 revenue for the SemiCab, Inc.’s business and determined an impairment charge of $3,592,000 should be recorded as of December 31, 2024.
Removed
We incurred a one-time, non-cash loss of $8,889,000 in connection with the public offering of securities that we completed on December 6, 2024.
Removed
In that offering, we sold Series A warrants and Series B warrants that had certain features and were subject to certain contingencies that resulted in us having to record a warrant liability of $16,603,000 on our balance sheet and a loss on the issuance of warrants of $8,889,000 on our income statement.
Removed
All of the contingencies that the Series A warrants were subject to were satisfied in January 2025, and of the Class B warrants were exercised in full in January 2025. As a result, we expect that the warrant liability will be reclassified as equity on our balance sheet for our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Removed
Outlook We expect net sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products to decrease over the next 12 months due to the negative impact on our business of recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China.
Removed
However, we expect revenue generated from our SemiCab business to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business from our growing customer base in the United States. As a result, total net sales are expected to increase over the next 12 months.
Removed
We expect gross profit to improve over the next 12 months as costs of goods sold remain at similar levels, subject to uncertainty surrounding the recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China, and sales of our higher margin, newer streaming technology karaoke machines increase as a percentage of total net sales.
Removed
We expect operating expenses to remain flat, if not decrease, over the next 12 months as we implement initiatives designed to reduce general and administrative expenses, particularly those related to marketing and advertising initiatives.
Removed
The reductions achieved may be partially offset by legal and accounting expenses that we incur as we engage in additional capital-raising activities as needed to fund our business and expenses that we incur to fund the growth and development of our SemiCab business.
Removed
Net loss available to common stockholders is expected to decrease substantially during the next 12 months primarily due to the fact that we do not expect to incur any non-cash losses in connection with the issuance of warrants requiring liability classification.
Removed
We also expect net loss available to common stockholders to decrease due to the aforementioned improvements in gross profit that we expect to realize and the decreases in general and administrative expenses that we intend to generate. 51 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event we complete additional acquisitions of controlling or non-controlling financial interests in other complementary businesses or companies through mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic initiatives, such as the acquisition of the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024, our financial results will include and reflect the financial results of the target entities.
Removed
Accordingly, the completion of any such transactions in the future may have a substantial beneficial or negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Removed

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
Removed
When making these estimates and assumptions, we consider our historical experience, our knowledge of economic and market factors and various other factors, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ under different estimates and assumptions.
Removed
The accounting estimates and assumptions discussed in this section are those that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and procedures, see our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this report.
Removed
Reserve for Sales Returns and Returns Asset While we have no overstock return privileges in its vendor agreements with its customers, we do accept defective returns, warranty exchanges and overstock from seasonal customers.
Removed
We estimate the sales value of goods to be returned from our allowance programs for goods returned from the customer for various reasons, whereby a reserve for sales returns is recorded based on historic return amounts, specific events as identified and management estimates. We estimate the net realizable value of these expected future sales returns.
Removed
The net realizable value of these estimated returns is classified as return assets as part of current assets on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. 52 Inventory Inventory is comprised primarily of electronic karaoke equipment, microphones, and accessories, and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, as determined using the first in, first out method.
Removed
We reduce inventory on hand to its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis when it is apparent that the expected realizable value of an inventory item falls below its original cost. A charge to cost of sales results when the estimated net realizable value of specific inventory items declines below cost.
Removed
Management regularly reviews our investment in inventories for such declines in value. Warrant Liability We classify the Series A and B warrants issued in our December 2024 public offering as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date.
Removed
With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in our statement of operations. The fair value of these warrants requires significate estimates by management derived from unobservable inputs. Deviations from these estimates could result in a significate difference to our financial results.
Removed
Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023- 07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). This ASU requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss.
Removed
The standard also requires disclosure of the composition of other segment items included in the measure of segment profit or loss that are not separately disclosed. All disclosure requirements under ASU 2023-07 are also required for public entities with a single reportable segment.
Removed
The ASU is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2023-07 effective December 31, 2024 with additional disclosures detailed in the subsequent notes. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures .
Removed
This ASU is intended to enhance the usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring entities to disclose specific rate reconciliations, amount of income taxes separate by federal and individual tax jurisdictions, and the amount of income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) disaggregated between federal, state and foreign.
Removed
ASU 2023-09 is effective for us for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) .
Removed
This ASU requires disclosure on an annual and interim basis, in the notes to the financial statements, of disaggregated information about specific categories underlying certain income statement expense line items. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective basis.
Removed
We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) . This ASU clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion.
Removed
ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. Adoption can be on a prospective or retrospective basis.
Removed
We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Removed
We reviewed all other significant newly-issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they either are not applicable to our operations or that no material effect is expected on our consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption. 53 Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2024 and the Nine-Month Transition Period Ended December 31, 2023 Net Sales Net sales consist primarily of sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products.
Removed
We generated only a minimal amount of sales from our SemiCab business. Net sales decreased $5,704,000 to $23,494,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $29,198,000 for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023.
Removed
The decrease in net sales was due primarily to decreases of $7,700,000 in sales to Walmart that resulted from us not participating in Walmart’s national Black Friday promotion and $1,200,000 in sales due to the loss of retail shelf space at Target.
Removed
The decrease of $8,900,000 from those two customers was partially offset by an increase of $3,196,000 in sales to Costco and other customers. We expect net sales of our Singing Machine karaoke products to decrease over the next 12 months due to the negative impact on our business of recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China.
Removed
However, we expect revenue generated from our SemiCab business to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business from our growing customer base. As a result, total net sales are expected to increase over the next 12 months.
Removed
Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold consists primarily of costs for raw materials and the manufacturing of our Singing Machine karaoke products. We incurred only a minimal amount of costs in connection with our SemiCab business.
Removed
Cost of goods sold decreased $4,295,000 to $18,713,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $23,008,000 for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in cost of goods sold was due primarily to a decrease of $3,553,000 for product manufacturing costs.
Removed
Our decrease in net sales resulted in a corresponding decrease in products manufactured, resulting in lower manufacturing costs. The decrease was also due to a non-cash inventory impairment charge of $1,827,000 that we recorded during the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023 that negatively impacted our cost of goods sold during the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023.
Removed
This was partially offset by an increase of $1,663,000 for our inventory reserve. We expect cost of goods sold to remain at similar levels over the next 12 months, subject to uncertainty surrounding the recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China.
Removed
Gross Profit Gross profit decreased $1,409,000 to $4,781,000, or 20.4% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $6,190,000, or 21.2% of net sales, for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023.
Removed
The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to a decrease of $5,704,000 for net sales, partially offset by a decrease of $4,295,000 in cost of goods sold. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in higher margin sales of newer streaming technology karaoke machines as a percentage of total net sales.
Removed
We expect gross profit to improve over the next 12 months as costs of goods sold remain at similar levels, subject to uncertainty surrounding the recently implemented tariffs on our products manufactured in China, and sales of our higher margin, newer streaming technology karaoke machines increase as a percentage of total net sales. 54 Operating Expenses Operating expenses consist of selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, and impairment of goodwill.

SemiCab is an AI-enabled software logistics and distribution business that utilizes our SemiCab technology platform to enable retailers, brands and transportation providers to address common supply chain problems globally. We operate our SemiCab business through our subsidiary, SemiCab Holdings. Prior to August 1, 2025, we had a second business, which was Singing Machine.
Removed
Policies and Practices related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information We have a strict policy of not granting securities to our executive officers, directors and employees when material nonpublic information is known or a material transaction is anticipated to occur.
Added
Singing Machine was a home karaoke consumer products business that designed and distributed karaoke products to retailers and ecommerce partners globally through our subsidiary, The Singing Machine Company, Inc. We sold our Singing Machine business on August 1, 2025. Accordingly, we no longer own or operate the Singing Machine business.
Removed
The timing of equity award grants is determined with consideration to a variety of factors, including but not limited to, the achievement of pre-established performance targets, market conditions and internal milestones. We do not follow a predetermined schedule for the granting of equity awards.
Added
SemiCab SemiCab is an AI-enabled, cloud-based collaborative transportation platform built to achieve the scalability required to predict and optimize loads and the use of trucks. To orchestrate collaboration across manufacturers, retailers, distributors, and their carriers, SemiCab uses real-time data from API-based load tendering and pre-built integrations with TMS and ELD partners.
Removed
Instead, each grant is considered on a case-by-case basis to align with our strategic objectives and to ensure the competitiveness of our compensation packages. In determining the timing and terms of an equity award, our board of directors and compensation committee consider material nonpublic information to ensure that such grants are made in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Added
To build fully loaded round trips, SemiCab uses AI/ML techniques and advanced predictive optimization models. Since 2020, SemiCab has enabled major retailers, brands and transportation providers to address their transportation needs. SemiCab’s Orchestrated Collaboration™ AI model has proven to increase transportation capacity, improve asset utilization, reduce empty miles, lower logistics costs, and provide visibility into the entire transportation network.
Removed
Procedures utilized by our board of directors and compensation committee to prevent the improper use of material nonpublic information in connection with the granting of equity awards include consultation with legal counsel and, where appropriate, the delay of the grant of applicable equity awards until the public disclosure of such material nonpublic information has been completed.
Added
Models show that our SemiCab technology has the capability of reducing costs through optimization. Additionally, our SemiCab technology has the potential to play a key role in the improved sustainability model. Based on our proven ability to improve truck utilization rates, this could result in a dramatic reduction in the carbon footprint of the industry.
Removed
We are committed to maintaining transparency in its executive compensation practices and to making equity awards in a manner that is not influenced by the timing of the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
Added
The optimization of existing truck utilization can add trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles which addresses common problems plaguing the industry like severe driver shortage and road congestion.
Removed
We regularly review our policies and practices related to equity awards to ensure that they meet the evolving standards of corporate governance and continue to serve the best interests of us and our stockholders.
Added
Trucking optimization could also reduce carbon emissions attributable to road freight. 38 Singing Machine Through Singing Machine, we engaged in the development, marketing, and sale of consumer karaoke audio equipment, accessories, and musical recordings.
Removed
During the year ended December 31, 2024, no securities were granted to our named executive officers within four business days prior to, or one business day following, the filing or furnishing of a periodic or current report by us that disclosed material nonpublic information. 71
Added
We were a leading global karaoke and music entertainment company that specializes in the design and production of quality karaoke and music enabled consumer products for adults and children. Our products were among the most widely available karaoke products internationally. We sold our Singing Machine business on August 1, 2025.
Added
Accordingly, we no longer own or operate the Singing Machine business line. Strategy We intend to invest in our SemiCab AI logistics and distribution business to develop and grow it into a significant revenue producer for us.
Added
This will involve investments in the continued research and development of our technology, the hiring of additional qualified employees, marketing and advertising initiatives, and back-office support. While this is a nascent business, it has already acquired several large, fast-moving consumer products companies as customers.
Added
We believe that as existing customers experience the benefits of our SemiCab logistics and distribution solutions, they will begin to increase their use of our services.
Added
We also believe that our ability to improve truck utilization rates and improve trucking capacity without adding more trucks, drivers or driven miles will be of substantial interest to additional companies that can benefit from our service.
Added
We acquired the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024 and acquired the India component of our SemiCab business on May 2, 2025. We may make additional investments in companies operating in the AI distribution and logistics space that we believe are complementary to our business.
Added
Our investments could involve an acquisition of the assets or equity of complementary companies or businesses or could involve a strategic partnership or joint venture with complementary companies or businesses or digital asset treasury strategies.
Added
We believe that additional investments could provide us with new AI logistics and distribution technologies, services and resources that we can implement across our entire business or could help us to more quickly expand our footprint into other parts of the world.
Added
We are actively evaluating additional opportunities to expand our SemiCab business through investments in complementary AI logistics and distribution businesses and companies. Financial Results We generated net sales of $4,391,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $297,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
The increase in revenue was due primarily to the addition of net sales generated by our SemiCab business resulting from our acquisition of SMCB on May 2, 2025. Cost of sales was $5,706,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $491,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
The increase in cost of sales was due primarily to the addition of freight, handling and servicing costs incurred by SMCB resulting from our acquisition of SMCB on May 2, 2025. 39 Our operating expenses were $6,629,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $8,248,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
The decrease in operating expenses was due primarily to a decrease of $3,592,000 related to the impairment of goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of SemiCab, Inc’s business during the year ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by the increase in general and administrative expenses incurred in the growth and development of the SemiCab business during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Added
We incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $15,210,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $18,884,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
The most significant contributors to the decrease in the net loss from continuing operations were decreases in non-cash charges of $3,592,000 for impairment of goodwill and $8,889,000 for loss on the issuance of warrants.
Added
This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $6,468,000 for non-cash charges for changes in the fair value of warrants liability and increases in general and administrative expenses incurred in the growth and development of the SemiCab business.
Added
We generated net loss from continuing operations of $15,210,000, or $5.86 per share of common stock, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $18,884,000, or $270.44 per share of common stock, for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
The decrease was due primarily to an increase of $4,094,000 for net sales and a decrease of $3,592,000 for impairment of goodwill. This was partially offset by an increase of $5,215,000 for cost of sales. We had total assets of $12,724,000 and $18,302,000 at December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
Added
Net cash used by operating activities attributable to continuing operations was $7,309,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $3,985,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
Outlook We expect net sales to increase substantially over the next 12 months as we generate more business through our growing customer base in India and as we begin to generate business in the United States and Europe.
Added
We expect costs of sales to increase over the next 12 months in connection with the increase in net sales that we expect to generate from our SemiCab business. We expect operating expenses and net loss available to common stockholders to increase over the next 12 months as we continue to fund the growth and development of our SemiCab business.
Added
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event we complete additional acquisitions of controlling or non-controlling financial interests in other complementary businesses or companies through mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic initiatives, such as the acquisition of the United States component of our SemiCab business on July 3, 2024 and the acquisition of the India component of our SemiCab business on May 2, 2025, our financial results will include and reflect the financial results of the target entities.
Added
Accordingly, the completion of any such transactions in the future may have a substantial beneficial or negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 40 Critical Accounting Estimates This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our audited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Added
The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
Added
When making these estimates and assumptions, we consider our historical experience, our knowledge of economic and market factors and various other factors, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ under different estimates and assumptions.
Added
The accounting estimates and assumptions discussed in this section are those that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and procedures, see our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this report.
Added
Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. All revenue is generated from contracts with customers. We recognize revenue when services are performed for the customer in an amount, referred to as the transaction price, that reflects the consideration to which we are expected to be entitled in exchange for those services.
Added
We determine revenue recognition utilizing the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract (promised services that are distinct); (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when, or as, we transfer control of the service for each performance obligation.
Added
Our performance obligations are established when a customer submits a purchase order notification and we accept the order. We identify performance obligations as the delivery of the requested service at the location specified in the customer’s contract and/or purchase order.
Added
Revenue from sales of services is recognized at the point in time when we transfer control to the customer, typically at the time when the services are performed in full, at which time there are no further performance obligations remaining. Our contracts with customers consist of one performance obligation, which is the performance of services.
Added
Our contracts have no financing elements. Payment terms are generally less than 90 days and have no further contract asset or liability obligations once control of the service is transferred to the customer. Revenue is recorded in the amount of consideration we expect to receive for the sale of the service.
Added
We utilize independent contractors and third-party carriers to perform transportation services in connection with our SemiCab business. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations, we evaluate the terms of agreements with customers and vendors to determine whether we act as principal or agent in each arrangement.
Added
This assessment focuses on whether control of the transportation service is obtained prior to transferring the service to the customer. Based on this evaluation of the control model, we concluded that it acts as the principal and, accordingly we recognize revenue on a gross basis.
Added
In the event we act as an agent, such revenue will be recognized net of the cost of purchased transportation. All revenue earned from contracts are presented net of discounts, allowances, and applicable taxes 41 Warrant Liability We classify the Series A and B warrants issued in our December 2024 public offering as a liability at its fair value.
Added
This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in our statement of operations. The fair value of these warrants requires significate estimates by management derived from unobservable inputs.
Added
Deviations from these estimates could have a significant affect on our financial results. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810).
Added
This ASU provides that a reporting entity involved in a business combination effected primarily by the exchange of equity interests must consider the factors in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-10-55-12 through 55-15 to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer regardless of whether the legal acquiree is a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”).
Added
The amendments in ASU 2025-03 must be applied prospectively to any business combination that occurs after the initial adoption date. ASU 2025-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Added
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-04, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which clarifies the guidance in both ASC 718 and ASC 606 on the accounting for share-based payment awards that are granted by an entity as consideration payable to its customer.
Added
The ASU is intended to reduce diversity in practice and improve existing guidance, primarily by revising the definition of a “performance condition” and eliminating a forfeiture policy election for service conditions associated with share-based consideration payable to a customer.
Added
In addition, the ASU clarifies that the guidance in ASC 606 on the variable consideration constraint does not apply to share-based consideration payable to a customer “regardless of whether an award’s grant date has occurred” (as determined under ASC 718). ASU 2025-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Added
Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Added
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), which provides a practical expedient for measuring expected credit losses on current receivables and contract assets arising under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers .
Added
The ASU allows entities to assume that the macroeconomic conditions existing at the balance sheet date will remain unchanged over the remaining life of those assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted.
Added
We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. 42 In August 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU simplifies the accounting for costs incurred in the development of internal-use software by removing the concept of multiple project stages.
Added
Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits funding to the project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software placed into service. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted.
Added
We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). This ASU clarifies the scope of derivative accounting for certain contracts and provides guidance on share-based, non-cash consideration received from a customer under Topic 606.
Added
The amendments expand a scope exception for contracts whose underlying is based on an entity’s own operations or activities, reducing the number of arrangements that qualify as derivatives. The ASU also clarifies the accounting for share-based consideration received from a customer. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those years.
Added
Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11) .
Added
The purpose of this ASU is to improve the guidance of Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by providing clarity on the current interim reporting requirements. This amendment also provides additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods.
Added
The amendments in this ASU also add to Topic 270 a principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the reporting entity. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all public companies for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2027.
Added
Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Added
We reviewed all other significant newly-issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they either are not applicable to our operations or that no material effect is expected on our consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption. 43 Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 Net Sales Net sales consist of sales generated by our SemiCab business.
Added
Net sales increased $4,094,000 to $4,391,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $297,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in net sales was due primarily to the addition of net sales generated by SMCB, which we acquired on May 2, 2025.
Added
We expect net sales to increase over the next 12 months as we generate more business through our growing customer base in India and as we begin to generate business in the United States and Europe. Cost of Sales Cost of sales consists primarily of freight, handling and servicing costs that we incur in connection with our SemiCab business.

The increase in cost of sales was due primarily to the addition of freight, handling and servicing costs incurred by SMCB, which we acquired on May 2, 2025.
Added
We expect costs of sales to increase over the next 12 months in connection with the increase in net sales that we expect to generate from our SemiCab business. Operating Expenses Operating expenses consist of selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, and impairment of goodwill.
Added
Selling Expenses Selling expenses consist primarily of marketing and advertising activities that we engage in from time to time in connection with our SemiCab business. Selling expenses were $4,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025. We did not incur any selling expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024.
