However, it references the prior fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, noting that the Company has incurred substantial operating losses.

Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
The primary risk highlighted in the filing is the substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, as previously disclosed in the 2024 financial statements. Management's plans to address this uncertainty are referenced in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements but are not detailed in this 8-K. The Company confirmed that no consultations were held with the new auditor, Mokuolu, regarding accounting principles or audit opinions prior to their appointment.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Review the Company's most recent 10-K or 10-Q to examine Note 1 for specific details on management's plans to secure additional capital.
- Monitor future filings for the appointment of a new auditor's initial audit opinion and any changes to the going concern assessment.
- Confirm the Company's current liquidity position and cash runway given the disclosed need for additional capital.
