When used in this annual report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this annual report relating to our business strategy, our future operating results, and our liquidity and capital-resources outlook. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of future performance. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward-looking statements.

●

our ability to manage our research, development, expansion, growth, and operating expenses;

 

●

our ability to evaluate and measure our business, prospects, and performance metrics;

●

our ability to protect our intellectual property and to develop, maintain, and enhance a strong brand; and

 

●

other factors relating to our industry, our operations, and results of operations.

 

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.

 

Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

INNO HOLDINGS INC. (“INNO,” “we,” “us,” or “Company”) is an innovative technology company that engages in the business of recycled consumer electronic devices. We source and purchase pre-owned consumer electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets from suppliers and sell the electronic devices to wholesalers that re-sell these products to their wholesale and/or retail customers in Southeast Asia, Middle East Asia, Europe and other regions. We conduct our business of recycled consumer electronic devices through two Hong Kong-based wholly-owned subsidiaries Lear Group Limited and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited, acquired by the Company in October and December 2024, respectively.

 

Previously the Company engaged in the business of manufacturing cold-formed-steel and offering a range of services required to transform raw materials into precise steel framing products and prefabricated homes. In the second quarter of 2025, the Company decided to discontinue its cold-formed-steel business and sold all of the Company’s ownership in the subsidiaries through which the Company conducted its cold-formed-steel business. From March 2025 till April 2025, the Company completed the disposition of all its ownership or membership interests in its former wholly- and partially-owned subsidiaries, namely Inno Metal Studs Corp, Inno AI Tech Corp., Inno Disrupts Inc., and Castor Building Tech LLC.

 

Our Products

 

Recycled consumer electronic devices

 

 

The recycled consumer electronic devices offered by us include smartphones (various models of iPhone) and tablets (various models of iPad). For the years ended September 30, 2025, revenues generated from recycled iPhones accounted for 100% of our revenue.

 

We expect to expand our products into more categories in the future including but not limited to laptops, such as MacBook, and other accessories, such as smartwatches and headphones.

 

Our Customers

 

Currently we derive all of our revenues from wholesale customers. Such wholesaler customers purchase recycled consumer electronic devices from us and then re-sell them in Southeast Asia, Middle East Asia, Europe and other regions.

 

Our Suppliers

 

We currently rely on a limited number of suppliers that collect pre-owned consumer electronic devices from network carriers, companies, and individuals. For the year ended September 30, 2025, two suppliers accounted for all of the Company’s total purchases. We endeavor to broaden our supplier base. However, we maintain a high standard requirement for supplies of recycled consumer electronic devices. Before purchasing products from a new supplier, the Company will perform a background check, taken into consideration the new supplier’s past track record.

 

 

Our Competitive Strengths

 

Purchase and sale of high quality Like-New products

 

Recycled consumer electronic devices vary greatly in their quality. Our business strategy is purchasing and selling high quality Like-New electronic devices that have minimal signs of use, scratches, cracks or scuffs to the screen or rear housing. Such business strategy contributes to not only high efficiency on inspection, testing and refurbishment of the purchased products but also extremely low return rate from our global customers.

 

Dynamic inventory level management

 

We maintain a dynamic level of inventories of recycled consumer electronic devices, based on our knowledge of the prevailing market trend and estimation of electronic devices price fluctuation. We continuously adjust our inventory levels by lowering inventory of products in downward trend and increasing inventory of those in upward trend.

 

Fast response to our customers’ needs

 

We respond fast to our customers’ needs. The fast response is enabled by the inventories maintained in our leased warehouse in Hong Kong that are ready for shipping to our customers. Also, since our products are high quality Like-New devices, our warehouse personnels can quickly package and ship the goods via third party couriers. These measures help shorten the time between our receipt of customers’ orders and the delivery of the goods. Fast response to our customers’ needs contribute to higher level of customer loyalty to our products.

 

Flexible product pricing algorithm

 

We have developed a database and algorithm for pricing strategies in purchase and sales of recycled consumer electronic devices. We are able to set prices in a flexible way to balance demands and profitability by comprehensively considering factors including the current market price of similar products, historical transaction prices of similar products, size of the order, specifications of the products, and the quantity of the products.

 

Strategic location of Hong Kong

 

Our operating subsidiaries, Lear Group Limited and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited, are located in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is one of the busiest ports and enjoys the advantage of duty-free status, making it a major hub for the global recycled electronic devices industry. Located in Hong Kong, the Company can conveniently receive recycled electronic devices from, and have them dispatched to, most of the regions in the world.

 

Marketing

 

We endeavor to broaden our customer base. Our marketing strategy is a long-term plan to achieve our Company’s mission by understanding the needs of customers and creating a distinct and sustainable competitive advantage. We intend to leverage our marketing and sales efforts to establish new potential customers. We also intend to leverage customer referrals, which in the past have been a source of new business. We believe that the reputation we have developed with our current customers represents an important part of our marketing effort.

 

We have a digital market channel and a social media presence. Our marketing channels include creating and implementing ad campaigns, and word of mouth. Also, we are actively conducting market research to determine the viability of our new products and new patents. We have increased our marketing budget and formed a professional sales team to increase our online marketing, which we believe can help us grow our revenue.

 

 

Business Plan

 

Diversify the product portfolio

 

We built a solid business model of recycling and reselling smartphones and tablets. With the experience and capital gained over the years, we plan to further diversify our product portfolio by participating in laptops, such as MacBook, and other accessories, such as smartwatches and headphones.

 

Expand into strategic overseas markets

 

The Company expects the recycled consumer electronic devices market to experience robust growth in Southeast and Middle Asia in the near future. To shorten the supply chain and better interact with the clients located in these strategic markets, the Company intends to set up offices in Singapore, Malaysia, Dubai and other areas in Southeast and Middle Asia in the next five years. We expect this strategic move to help increase its revenues and market presence.

 

Expand the wholesale business and develop a B2B Marketplace Platform

 

We plan to further expand our wholesale customer base in recycled consumer electronic devices. The Company is now in process of developing a Business to Business (“B2B”) marketplace platform that will facilitate manufacturers and distributors as suppliers to sell direct to business buyers as wholesalers. This marketplace platform, empowered by cloud computing, big data, and high-frequency matchmaking technology, will provide sellers with marketplace technology to enhance and grow their business while offering buyers access to an exclusive collection of top brands at or below wholesale prices. The platform is expected to supplement the Company’s traditional business model of individual negotiations and attract potential customers. We expect to obtain more customers and suppliers through this marketplace platform.

 

Potential acquisitions for horizonal and vertical integration

 

In accordance with our growth strategy, the Company intends to pursue horizonal and vertical integration by acquiring companies operating within the industry of recycled consumer electronic devices. The objective of this horizonal and vertical integration is to strengthen and expand our capabilities within the market. We will position ourselves to offer a comprehensive range of solutions encompassing the entire value chain of recycled consumer electronic devices.

 

To fortify our supply chain and augment our capabilities, we will consider the strategic acquisition of distributors/wholesalers with the proceeds from our equity and/or debt financing activities to pursue potential acquisitions. The targeted companies would include the ones that enjoy the popularities in the industry, including but not limited to the companies that have already built stable sales connection to whole and retail customers in regions that we currently do not reach to, such as North and South America. The Company may also consider the strategic acquisition of its competitors within the industry in order to strengthen its capabilities of inspection, testing and refurbishment as well as pricing.

 

Recruit additional employees

 

We plan to employ additional personnel to meet the Company’s growth needs. Our hiring plan includes the recruitment of marketing personnel to build and improve our brand recognition, the sales personnels to meet and satisfy the increased wholesale demands from our existing and new customers, and also a financial and accounting team to strengthen our financial control system.

 

Enhance business infrastructures

 

The Company plans to upgrade its business infrastructure to better prepare for its future growth, including the inventory management and information system. In order to improve our dynamic inventory management, we plan to upgrade the inventory management system so that the Company’s inventories of recycled consumer electronic devices can be maintained at a more efficient and flexible level. In addition, the Company may develop a proprietary device testing software to further facilitate the inspection and testing process of purchased recycled consumer electronic devices. With the updated infrastructures, we expect to increase the efficiency and data security in our business operations.

 

 

Seasonality

 

We experience a moderate level of seasonality in our business primarily as a result of new product launches by consumer electronic devices manufacturers and promotional campaigns by e-commerce platforms. New product launches by major cell phone brands such as Apple each year also boost our customer traffic and purchase orders. All of these activities can affect our results for those quarters. The seasonality in our business also results from major promotions and holidays such as Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas Holiday. Overall, the historical seasonality of our business has been relatively moderate. Our financial condition and results of operations for future periods may continue to fluctuate.

 

Radio Dealers License (unrestricted)

 

Our operating subsidiaries Lear Group Limited and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited have obtained the Radio Dealers License (Unrestricted), the document required to conduct the trade or business in apparatus or material for radio-communications or any components part thereof, including the performing of repairs and refurbishment, and the import and export of radio-communications transmitting apparatus. The current term of the License of Lear Group Limited and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited will expire on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2025, respectively. We will comply with the requirements and keep the license valid.

 

Competition

 

The recycled consumer electronic wholesale industry in Hong Kong is competitive and relatively fragmented, with approximately 1,000 wholesalers engaged in sourcing, grading, refurbishing and resale of pre-owned consumer electronic devices. The major competitors of the Company include the following:

 

●

Guang Yi Co. Ltd., founded in 2020, is primarily engaged in the international wholesaling and trading of cellphones and other consumer electronic devices in various grades, including brand new, nearly new, and average grading. Suppliers of Guang Yi Co. Ltd. include telecommunication companies and over 100 other vendors. In addition, the Guang Yi Co. Ltd. has built a global buy-back network to recycle pre-owned cellphones through a B2C channel.

 

●

Brightway Trading Co., established in 2013, is focusing on the submarket of cell phones returned by customers. Brightway Trading Co. sources cellphones of all conditions from Europe, the U.K., the U.S.

 

●

CommNet Telecom Limited, a Hong Kong based consumer electronic devices recycling firm that started its business in 2004, specializes in the import and export of brand new and used cell phones. The majority of CommNet Telecom Limited’s suppliers are located in the U.S. and the U.K.

 

Government Regulations

 

As we conduct business in Hong Kong through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, our business operations are subject to various regulations and rules promulgated by the Hong Kong government. The following is a brief summary of the Hong Kong laws and regulations that currently and materially affect our business. This section does not purport to be a comprehensive summary of all present and proposed regulations and legislation relating to the industries in which we operate.

 

Hong Kong Laws and Regulations Relating to Trade Descriptions

 

Trade Descriptions Ordinance (Chapter 362 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “TDO”), which came into full effect in Hong Kong on April 1, 1981, aims to prohibit false or misleading trade description and statements to goods and services provided to the customers during or after a commercial transaction. Pursuant to the TDO, any person in the course of any trade or business applies a false trade description to any goods or supply or offers to supply them commits an offence and a person also commits the same offence if he/she is in possession for sale or for any purpose of trade or manufacture of any goods with a false description. The TDO also provides that traders may commit an offence if they engage in a commercial practice that has a misleading omission of material information of the goods, an aggressive commercial practice, involves bait advertising, bait and switch or wrong acceptance of payment. It is also an offence for any person to have in his possession for sale or for any purpose of trade or manufacture any goods to which a false trade description is applied. To amount to a false trade description, the falsity of the trade descriptions has to be to a material degree. Trivial errors or discrepancies in trade descriptions would not constitute an offence. What constitutes a material degree will vary with the facts.

 

 

Contravention of the prohibitions in the TDO is an offence, with a maximum penalty of up to HK$500,000 and five years’ imprisonment. However, the TDO also provides regulators with the ability to accept (and publish) written undertakings from businesses and individuals not to continue, repeat or engage in unfair trade practices in return of which regulator will not commence or continue investigations or proceedings relating to that matter. Regulators will also be empowered to seek an injunction against businesses and persons engaging in unfair trade practices or who have breached an undertaking.

 

Hong Kong Laws and Regulations Relating to Sale of Goods

 

Pursuant to Sale of Goods Ordinance (Chapter 26 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “SOGO”), which came into full effect in Hong Kong on August 1, 1896, in every contract of sale, there is an implied warranty that the goods are free, and will remain free until the time when the property is to pass, from any charge or encumbrance not disclosed or known to the buyer before the contract is made and that the buyer will enjoy quiet possession of the goods except so far as it may be disturbed by the owner or other person entitled to the benefit of any charge or encumbrance so disclosed or known. The SOGO provides that there is an implied condition that the goods shall correspond with the description where there is a contract for the sale of goods by description, and there is any implied condition or warranty as to the quality or fitness for any particular purpose of goods supplied under a contract of sale. Where the seller sells goods in the course of a business, there is an implied condition that the goods supplied under the contract are of merchantable quality, except that there is no such condition (i) as regards defects specifically drawn to the buyer’s attention before the contract is made; or (ii) if the buyer examines the goods before the contract is made, as regards defects which that examination ought to reveal; or (iii) if the contract is a contract for sale by sample, as regards defects which would have been apparent on a reasonable examination of the sample. Where there is a contract for sale by sample, there are implied conditions that (i) the bulk shall correspond with the sample in quality, (ii) the buyer shall have a reasonable opportunity of comparing the bulk with the sample, and (iii) the goods shall be free from any defect, rendering them unmerchantable, which would not be apparent on reasonable examination of the sample. Under SOGO, where any right, duty or liability would arise under a contract of sale of goods by implication of law, it may (subject to the Control of Exemption Clauses Ordinance (Chapter 71 of the Laws of Hong Kong)) be negatived or varied by express agreement, or by the course of dealing between the parties, or by usage if the usage is such as to bind both parties to the contract.

 

Telecommunications Ordinance (Chapter 106 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the ‘‘TO’’)

 

Under the TO, a license, namely Radio Dealers License (Unrestricted), is required for dealing in the course of trade or business in apparatus or material for radio communications or in any component part of any such apparatus or in apparatus of any kind that generates and emits radio waves whether or not the apparatus is intended, or capable of being used, for radio communications. However, the above requirement does not apply to licensed exempted radio communications apparatus (e.g., mobile phones, short-range walkie-talkies, cordless phones) meeting prescribed specifications. Under the Radio Dealers License (Unrestricted), the licensee is permitted to deal in radio communications apparatus pursuant to section 9 of the TO. A Radio Dealers License (Unrestricted) is generally valid for a period of 12 months, and is renewable on payment of the prescribed fee, at the discretion of Office of the Communications Authority (“OFCA”).

 

Our operating subsidiaries Lear Group Limited and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited are licensees of the Radio Dealers Licenses (Unrestricted). The material licensing conditions are: (a) to store the licensed apparatus at a specified address, (b) to display the license at the licensed premises, (c) to keep and maintain complete and accurate registers for the last twelve months, of the licensed apparatus and of the licensee’s dealings and transactions therewith, except those apparatus which have been exempted, (d) not to deal locally in radio apparatus which is not of a type approved by the Communications Authority or not licensable in Hong Kong; and to only deliver radio apparatus to a customer if (i) they have been exempted by statute, (ii) the customer is not a tourist and is licensed to possess or use the apparatus, or (iii) the customer is a tourist who intends to export the apparatus after purchase.

 

 

Radio Dealers Licenses have different dates of grant and are valid for a period of 12 months. Lear Group Limited’s and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited’s radio dealers license will expire on September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and will be renewed upon expiry (subject to the discretion of OFCA). We will renew the Radio Dealers Licenses in accordance with the Telecommunications Regulations (Chapter 106A of the Laws of Hong Kong) by paying the required renewal fee to OFCA. We are not aware of any legal impediment to renew the Radio Dealers Licenses subject to the conditions below: (I) We have to pay to OFCA the required renewal fee as may from time to time be determined and required by OFCA on or before the respective date of expiry of the Radio Dealers Licenses; and (II) We have to comply with the “General Conditions to be observed by Licensee of Radio Dealers License (Unrestricted)” and the “Conditions” set out in the Radio Dealers Licenses.

 

Consumer Goods Safety Ordinance (Chapter 456 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “CGSO”) and Consumer Goods Safety Regulation (Chapter 456A of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “CGSR”)

 

The CGSO is enacted to impose a duty on manufacturers, importers and suppliers of certain consumer goods to ensure that the consumer goods they supply are safe. Electrical products and any other goods the safety of which is controlled by specific legislation are not covered by the CGSO.

 

The CGSO prohibits a person from supplying, manufacturing, or importing into Hong Kong consumer goods unless the consumer goods comply with the general safety requirement or an approved standard for consumer goods. Currently there is no approved standard which has been approved in any regulation to the CGSO. Contravention with the above requirement is an offence and the offender is liable on first conviction to a fine at HK$100,000 and to imprisonment for one year, and on subsequent conviction to a fine of HK$500,000 and to imprisonment for two years.

 

It is a defense to the above offence if the commission of the offence was due to (a) the act or default of another person or reliance on information given by another, and (b) that it was reasonable in all the circumstances for him to have relied on the information, having regard in particular (i) to the steps which he took, and those which might reasonably have been taken, for the purpose of verifying the information; and (ii) to whether he had any reason to disbelieve the information. A court may take into consideration the existence of a certificate from an approved laboratory showing that the samples of consumer goods which are the subject of the prosecution had been tested before being sold and had complied with the safety standard or safety specification set out in the certificate.

 

The CGSR requires any warning or caution affixed on any consumer goods or their packages to be in both the English and the Chinese languages. The warning or caution shall be legible and be placed in a conspicuous position on (a) the consumer goods; (b) any package of the consumer goods; (c) a label securely affixed to the package; or (d) a document enclosed in the package. Any person who supplies consumer goods which do not comply with the above requirements commits an offence and is liable (a) on first conviction to a fine at HK$100,000 and to imprisonment for one year; and (b) on subsequent conviction to a fine of HK$500,000 and to imprisonment for two years.

 

Hong Kong Laws and Regulations Relating to Intellectual Properties Rights

 

Trade Marks Ordinance (Chapter 559 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (“TMO”), which came into full effect in Hong Kong on April 4, 2003 provides the framework for the Hong Kong’s system of registration of trademarks and sets out the rights attached to a registered trade mark, including logo and a brand name. The TMO restricts unauthorized use of a sign which is identical or similar to the registered mark for identical and/or similar goods and/or services for which the mark was registered, where such use is likely to cause confusion on the part of the public. The TMO provides that a person may also commit a criminal offence if that person fraudulently uses a trademark, including selling and importing goods bearing a forged trade mar, or possessing or using equipment for the purpose of forging a trademark. However, pursuant to section 20 of the TMO, a registered trade mark is not infringed by the use of trade mark in relation to goods which have been put on the market anywhere in the world under that trade mark by the owner or with his consent (whether express or implied or conditional or unconditional), unless the condition of the goods has been changed or impaired after they have been put on the market, and the use of the registered trade mark in relation to those goods is detrimental to the distinctive character or repute of the trade mark.

 

Patents Ordinance (Chapter 514 of the Laws of Hong Kong), which came into full effect in Hong Kong on June 27, 1997 provides the framework for “re-registration” system of Chinese, UK and European patents in Hong Kong. Pursuant to Patents (Amendment) Ordinance 2016, which came into full effect in Hong Kong on December 19, 2019 provide a new framework for a new patent system — an “original grant patent” system, running in parallel with the “re-registration” system.

 

 

Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (“CO”), which came into full effect in Hong Kong on June 27, 1997 provides comprehensive protection for recognized categories of underlying works such as literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works. The CO restricts unauthorized acts such as copying and/or making available copies to the public of a copy right work. The CO provides that a person commits an offence if he, without the license of the copyright owner of a copyright work imports an infringing copy of the work into Hong Kong, at any time within 15 months beginning on the first day of publication of the work in Hong Kong or elsewhere, otherwise than for his private and domestic use.

 

Human Capital Resources

 

The success of our business depends in large part on our ability to attract, retain, and develop a workforce of skilled employees at all levels of our organization. We provide employees with base wages and salaries that we believe are competitive and consistent with each employee’s position. We also work with local, regional, and state-wide agencies to facilitate workforce hiring and development initiatives. We had five and four full-time employees as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information in this Item. Nonetheless, we are voluntarily providing risk factors herein. You should consider carefully the following risk factors when evaluating our business and financial condition, together with all the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in our other public filings with the SEC. The occurrence of any of the following risks could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or growth prospects or cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements we have made in this report and those we may make from time to time. In addition, these risks are not the only ones faced by the Company. Additional risks not summarized hereafter or not presently known to the Company or that the Company currently believes are immaterial may also impair business operations and financial results.

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Operations

 

We have shifted our primary business focus.

 

As of the date of this report, we were primarily engaged in the business of recycled consumer electronic devices. We source and purchase pre-owned consumer electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets from suppliers and sell the electronic devices to wholesalers that re-sell these products to their wholesale and/or retail customers in Southeast Asia, Middle East Asia, Europe and other regions. In the second quarter of 2025, we discontinued our previous business in cold-formed-steel business and sold all of the Company’s ownership in the subsidiaries through which the Company conducted its cold-formed-steel business.

 

Our experience in the business of recycled consumer electronic devices is limited. This strategic shift exposes us to uncertainties and risks associated with operating in a new industry. Our ability to execute our new business model, secure stable supply, maintain customer relationships, compete effectively and achieve profitability is uncertain. We also may face challenges in developing the operational infrastructure, internal controls and industry expertise required for this business. In addition, we may continue to incur transitional costs or potential liabilities associated with our discontinued operations. Any of these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our future growth strategies may not be as effective as we expect.

 

We are actively seeking to expand our business into new industry sectors. As previously announced and disclosed in our filing with the SEC, we entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Megabyte Solutions Limited (“MEGABYTE”), a Web3 technology service provider. We plan to form a strategic partnership with MEGABYTE to jointly deploy the in-depth application of Web3 technology in the Company’s cross-border B2B marketplace platform under development. Additionally, in response to the supply chain and trade needs of B2B businesses, we and MEGABYTE plan to launch an innovative decentralized, blockchain-powered service model integrating hardware and software.

 

These initiatives remain in early stages, and there is no assurance that the partnership will be finalized, that the planned technologies will be successfully developed or commercialized, or that market acceptance will meet our expectations. Web3 and blockchain technologies are evolving rapidly and are subject to regulatory, operational and adoption risks. We may face challenges in securing required technical expertise, integrating new technologies into our platform, or achieving the anticipated synergies and economic benefits. If our growth strategies fail to generate the expected results, our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

We are operated primarily in Hong Kong.

 

As of the date of this report, we operate primarily in Hong Kong, and our business, financial condition and results of operations are subject to the economic, political, legal and regulatory environments of Hong Kong. Any adverse developments in these conditions (such as changes in trade policies, geopolitical tensions, regulatory requirements, data and cybersecurity laws, taxation rules, labor conditions, or market demand) could materially and adversely affect our operations.

 

 

We face concentration risks in our revenue as we rely on our major customers.

 

A significant portion of our revenue is generated from a limited number of our major customers. For the year ended September 30, 2025, two customers accounted for 77% of the Company’s total revenues. For the year ended September 30, 2024, four customers accounted for 90% of the Company’s total revenues. If any of these customers reduces its purchase volume, experiences financial difficulties, delays payments, or terminates its relationship with us, our revenue and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. Our dependence on a small customer base also limits our ability to negotiate favorable pricing and terms. If we fail to diversify our customer base or replace lost customers in a timely manner, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially harmed.

 

We face concentration risks in our purchases as we rely on our major suppliers.

 

We depend on a limited number of major suppliers for the purchase of pre-owned electronic device products. For the year ended September 30, 2025, two suppliers accounted for 100% of the Company’s total purchases. For the year ended September 30, 2024, two suppliers accounted for 58% of the Company’s total purchases. Any disruption in these supplier relationships could materially affect our ability to source inventory and meet customer demand. Our reliance on a concentrated supplier base also exposes us to risks associated with supplier financial instability, operational disruptions, and competitive pressures. If we are unable to diversify our supplier base or secure alternative sources of supply on commercially reasonable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will be profitable.

 

There is no assurance that we will earn profits in the future, or that profitability will be sustained. There is no assurance that future revenues will be sufficient to generate the funds required to continue our business development and marketing activities. If we do not have sufficient capital to fund our operations, we may be required to reduce our sales and marketing efforts or forego certain business opportunities.

 

The Company may not have the ability to manage its growth.

 

The Company anticipates that significant expansion will be required to address potential growth in its customer base and market opportunities. The Company’s anticipated expansion is expected to place a significant strain on the Company’s management, operational, and financial resources. To manage any material growth of its operations and personnel, the Company may be required to improve existing operational and financial systems, procedures, and controls and to expand, train, and manage its employee base. There can be no assurance that the Company’s planned personnel, systems, procedures, and controls will be adequate to support the Company’s future operations, that management will be able to hire, train, retain, motivate, and manage required personnel, or that the Company’s management will be able to successfully identify, manage, and exploit existing and potential market opportunities. If the Company is unable to manage growth effectively, its business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

 

We rely on the leadership of our management team and the performance of highly skilled personnel.

 

The Company is, and will be, heavily dependent on the skill, acumen, and services of the management and other employees of the Company. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate, and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. Qualified individuals are in high demand, and we may incur significant costs to attract them. In addition, the loss of any of our senior management or key employees could materially adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan, and we may not be able to find adequate replacements. During the financial year ended September 30, 2025, we experienced changes in senior management, including the replacement of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. All of our officers and employees are at-will employees, which means they may terminate their employment relationship with us at any time, and their knowledge of our business and industry would be extremely difficult to replace. The loss of any of our senior management or key employees could materially adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan, and we may not be able to find adequate replacements. We cannot ensure that we will be able to retain the services of any members of our senior management or other key employees. If we do not succeed in attracting well-qualified employees or retaining and motivating existing employees, our business could be harmed.

 

 

We have incurred costs in our compliance measures as a public company.

 

As a public company, we are required to comply with extensive regulatory, reporting, corporate governance and internal control requirements. These obligations have resulted in increased legal, accounting, administrative and compliance costs, and we expect such costs to continue. We may also be required to dedicate significant management time and resources to maintain and enhance our compliance programs. If we fail to comply with applicable requirements or if our compliance efforts become more costly than anticipated, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

Litigation is costly and time-consuming and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and reputation.

 

The Company, as well as the Company’s directors and officers, may be subject to a variety of civil or other legal proceedings relating to the business affairs of companies with which they are, were or may be in the future affiliated, with or without merit. From time to time in the ordinary course of the Company’s business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings — including commercial, employment, and other litigation and claims — as well as governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources, and cause us to incur significant expenses. Furthermore, because litigation is inherently unpredictable, the results of any such actions may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition.

 

Even if the claims are without merit, the costs associated with defending these types of claims may be substantial, in terms of time, money, and management distraction. In particular, patent and other intellectual property litigation may be protracted and expensive, and the results are difficult to predict and may require us to stop offering certain features, purchase licenses, or modify our products and features while we develop non-infringing substitutes or may result in significant settlement costs.

The results of litigation and claims to which we may be subject cannot be predicted with certainty. Even if these matters do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor or without significant cash settlements, these matters, and the time and resources necessary to litigate or resolve them, could harm our business, results or operations, and reputation.

 

Risks Related to Our Financing Activities

 

We may need new or additional financing in the future to expand our business, and our inability to obtain capital on satisfactory terms or at all may have an adverse impact on our operations and our financial results.

 

We may need new or additional financing in the future to expand our business, refinance existing indebtedness, or make strategic acquisitions, and our inability to obtain capital on satisfactory terms or at all may have an adverse impact on our operations and our financial results. As we grow our business, we may have to incur significant capital expenditures. We may make capital investments to, among other things, build new or upgrade our existing facilities, purchase or lease new equipment, and enhance our production processes. If we are unable to access capital on satisfactory terms and conditions, we may not be able to expand our business or meet our payment requirements under our existing credit facilities. Our ability to obtain new or additional financing will depend on a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. We may not be able to obtain new or additional financing because we may have substantial debt, our current receivable and inventory balances may not support additional debt availability, or we may not have sufficient cash flows to service or repay our existing or future debt. In addition, depending on market conditions and our financial performance, equity financing may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all. Moreover, if we raise additional funds through issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our current stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. If we are unable to access capital on satisfactory terms and conditions, this could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

 

Future issuances of our shares or other equity securities may result in significant dilution to our existing shareholders.

 

To raise additional capital, we have issued and may continue to issue additional shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for our shares of common stock. Any such issuance would dilute the ownership interests of our existing shareholders and could adversely affect the market price of our securities. We cannot predict the timing, size or terms of future issuances, and shareholders may suffer significant and substantial dilution.

 

Our financing activities may negatively affect our cash flows and financial flexibility.

 

Our financing transactions may require us to incur expenses, pay interest or other financing costs, or allocate cash to service obligations. These payments may reduce funds available for operations, limit our financial flexibility, and increase our vulnerability to adverse business conditions. If our cash flows are insufficient to meet financing obligations, our business and results of operations could be harmed.

 

 

Frequent or unfavorable financing transactions may harm our reputation and investor confidence.

 

If we engage in repeated or sizable capital raising activities, particularly at discounts to market price, investors may perceive us as overly reliant on external financing. Such perception may adversely affect investor confidence, harm our reputation in the capital markets, and contribute to downward pressure on the trading price of our securities. Negative market perception could also make future financings more difficult or costly to complete.

 

We may not be able to access the capital markets when needed, which could adversely affect our operations.

 

Our ability to raise capital through public or private offerings of securities depends on market liquidity, our business and financial performance, our trading volume, regulatory developments and general economic conditions. Market volatility, declining stock price, or low investor demand may restrict our ability to obtain financing in a timely manner or on acceptable terms. If we cannot raise capital when required, we may be unable to execute our business plans, meet working capital needs or respond to competitive pressures.

 

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Securities

 

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and could, following any offering or sale, decline significantly and rapidly.

 

The price at which our securities are offered or sold in any registered or exempt offering will be determined by negotiations between us and the applicable underwriter, placement agent or investor, and such price may not be indicative of the prices that will prevail in the open market following the offering. The market price of our common stock may decline below the offering price, and you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the price you paid, or at all. Following any such offering, the public price of our common stock in the secondary market will continue to be determined by private buy-and-sell transactions effected through broker-dealers and may fluctuate significantly in response to various factors, many of which are outside our control.

 

We may experience extreme stock price volatility unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance, financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our common stock.

 

Recently, a number of publicly traded companies, particularly those with relatively small public floats, have experienced extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and elevated volatility. We have been and may continue to be susceptible to significant stock price volatility, extreme price run-ups, lower trading volume and reduced liquidity than large-capitalization companies. Our common stock may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility, low volumes of trades and wide bid-ask spreads. Such volatility, including any rapid price appreciation followed by decline, may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance, financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for investors to assess the value of our common stock.

 

In addition, if the trading volumes of our common stock are low, persons buying or selling in relatively small quantities may easily influence the price of our common stock. Low trading volume could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly, including large percentage changes in a single trading day. Holders of our common stock may not be able to readily liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices due to limited liquidity. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and political conditions may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our common stock. A decline in the market price of our common stock could adversely affect our ability to issue additional common stock or other securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future. No assurance can be given that an active or liquid market for our common stock will be sustained, and if an active market does not continue, holders of our common stock may be unable to readily sell their shares or may not be able to sell their common stock at all.

 

We may not be able to satisfy the listing requirements of Nasdaq to maintain a listing of our common stock.

 

As a company listed and publicly traded on Nasdaq, we must meet certain financial and liquidity criteria to maintain such listing status. If we violate the maintenance requirements for continued listing of our common stock, our common stock may be delisted. In addition, our board may determine that the cost of maintaining our listing on a national securities exchange outweighs the benefits of such listing. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq may materially impair our stockholders’ ability to buy and sell our common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our common stock. In addition, the delisting of our common stock could significantly impair our ability to raise capital in the future.

 

We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert our management’s attention.

 

The market price of our securities may be volatile, and in the past, companies that experienced volatility in the market price of their securities were subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention from other business concerns.

 

 

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

 

We acknowledge the increasing importance of cybersecurity in today’s digital and interconnected world. Cybersecurity threats pose significant risks to the integrity of our systems and data, potentially impacting our business operations, financial condition and reputation.

 

 

 

 

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

 

We lease our principal executive office and warehouse which is located at RM1, 5/F, No. 43 Hung To Road, Kwun Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong 999077. The lease for this principal executive office and warehouse had a 12-month term beginning on November 1, 2024 and ending on October 31, 2025. On June 1, 2025, this lease was terminated without penalty and a new lease agreement was entered with the landlord. The new lease term is from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2026, with a monthly rent of $12,000. The facility consists of approximately 1,400 square feet of indoor space.

 

The lease agreement contains standard commercial lease terms including but not limited to provisions regarding utilities, alterations, maintenance and repair, insurance and indemnification.

 

We believe that our current leased property is in good condition and suitable for the conduct of our business.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, investigations or claims. From time to time, we involve in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of our business. There can be no assurance that such matters will not arise in the future or that any such matters in which we are involved, or which may arise in the ordinary course of our business, will not at some point proceed to litigation or that such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

 

Not applicable.

 

 

PART II

 

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

 

Market Information

 

We have our common stock listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “INHD”.

 

Holders

 

As of September 30, 2025, there were 19 stockholders of record of our common stock. The actual number of stockholders is greater than this number of record holders, and includes stockholders who are beneficial owners, but whose shares are held in street name by brokers and other nominees. This number of holders of record also does not include stockholders whose shares may be held in trust by other entities.

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

On November 30, 2022, the Company effected a forward stock split (the “Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of the common stock at a split ratio of 2-for-1. Further on July 24, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of the common stock at a split ratio of 1-for-2 such that every holder of common stock of the Company shall receive one share of common stock for every two shares of common stock held and to reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 100,000,000. Shortly after the Reverse Stock Split, the Board of Directors of the Company approved issuance of additional shares to preserve the original purchase price per share of the shares sold in the period from February 1 to June 30, 2023.

 

On October 9, 2024, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, no par value, (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each share of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to October 9, 2024 were automatically converted into one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. The Common Stock began trading on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on October 10, 2024. The trading symbols for the Common Stock remains “INHD”. The Reverse Stock Split did not reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and did not change the par value of the Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split affected all stockholders uniformly. Except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split resulted in the stockholders’ fractional shares being rounded up, no other effects affect stockholder’s ownership percentage of the Company’s shares of Common Stock. 199,787 fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.

 

All common share and per-share amounts in this Form 10-K have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have not declared any cash dividends since inception, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Instead, we anticipate that all of our earnings will be used to provide working capital, to support our operations, and to finance the growth and development of our business. The payment of dividends is within the discretion of the Board and will depend on our earnings; capital requirements; financial condition; prospects; applicable Texas law, which provides that dividends are only payable out of surplus or current net profits; and other factors our Board might deem relevant. There are no restrictions that currently limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock other than those generally imposed by applicable state law.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.

 

Overview

 

We are an innovative technology company that engages in the business of recycled consumer electronic devices. We source and purchase pre-owned consumer electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets from suppliers and sell the electronic devices to wholesalers that re-sell these products to their wholesale and/or retail customers in Southeast Asia, Middle East Asia, Europe and other regions. We conduct our business of recycled consumer electronic devices through two Hong Kong-based wholly-owned subsidiaries Lear Group Limited and Baymax High Technology Co., Limited, acquired by the Company in October and December 2024, respectively.

 

 

Previously the Company engaged in the business of manufacturing cold-formed-steel and offering a range of services required to transform raw materials into precise steel framing products and prefabricated homes. In the second quarter of 2025, the Company decided to discontinue its cold-formed-steel business and sold all of the Company’s ownership in the subsidiaries through which the Company conducted its cold-formed-steel business. From March 2025 till April 2025, the Company completed the disposition of all its ownership or membership interests in its former wholly- and partially-owned subsidiaries, namely Inno Metal Studs Corp, Inno AI Tech Corp., Inno Disrupts Inc., and Castor Building Tech LLC.

Revenues

 

Revenue for the year ended September 30, 2025 increased 100% to $2,846,250 in comparison to $Nil for the year ended September 30, 2024. Revenue for the year ended September 30, 2025 consists solely of the Company’s new business of electronic products trading that started since October 2024. The new business of electronic products trading contributes to the increase in revenue for the year ended September 30, 2025 against the comparable period in 2024.

 

Our revenues are significantly impacted by demand for economic conditions including costs of labor, materials and other variables that impact the cost of our finished goods. We cannot ensure that growth will continue, and our business may be adversely affected by the negative overall economic conditions currently being experienced.

 

Costs of Materials and Labor

 

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) includes electronic products purchased from our suppliers. COGS for the year ended September 30, 2025 increased to $2,790,500 in comparison to $Nil for the year ended September 30, 2024. COGS for the year ended September 30, 2025 consists solely of electronic products purchased from our suppliers in the Company’s new business of electronic products trading that started since October 2024. The new business of electronic products trading contributes to the increase in COGS for the year ended September 30, 2025 against the comparable period in 2024.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended September 30, 2025, increased 423% to $4,414,709 in comparison to $844,844 for the comparable period in 2024. This increase was primarily driven by stock compensation, legal expenses, auditing expenses and consulting expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimate

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of significant accounting policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our most recently filed Form 10-K, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our critical accounting estimates, identified in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of our most recently filed Form 10-K, include the discussion of estimates used for revenue recognition, inventory valuation, going concern assessment, and our provision for income taxes. Such accounting estimates require significant judgments and assumptions to be used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q, and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported.

 

New Accounting Standards

 

From time to time, the FASB or other standards-setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update. To understand the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted, please review the information provided in Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of significant accounting policies, “Recently issued but not yet adopted accounting pronouncements”, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Inno Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company incurred an accumulated deficit of $14,818,007 and a negative cash flow from operations amounting to $4,728,738 for year ended September 30, 2025. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s 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 consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the United States federal securities laws. and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

INNO HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1 — Nature of business and organization

 

INNO HOLDINGS, INC., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), was incorporated on September 8, 2021. The Company is principally engaged in the marketing and sale of construction products along with full-scope construction services in the US.

 

On January 18, 2022, the Company formed a limited liability company, Castor Building Tech LLC (“CBT”), in California. The Company owned 53% of the equity interest in CBT. On October 16, 2023, the Company and the noncontrolling interest parties reached a new ownership agreement that the Company’s ownership increased to 55%. According to the new ownership agreement, the ownership percentage change is retroactively effective from January 18, 2022. The impact of historical noncontrolling interest allocation from this ownership percentage change is immaterial.

 

Effective as of January 21, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of the ordinary shares of Inno Metal Studs Corp. (“IMSC”), a Texas corporation incorporated on October 31, 2019. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement with IMSC’s former sole owner and CEO of the Company, Mr. Dekui Liu, the Company issued 15,170,000 shares of its common stock to Mr. Dekui Liu in exchange for his 100% ownership in IMSC. Upon completion of the transaction, IMSC became a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Inno Research Institute LLC (“IRI”), a Texas limited liability company was formed on September 8, 2021, is a 65% owned subsidiary of IMSC. On January 27, 2024, IRI was voluntarily terminated and resulted in a disposal loss of $23,715. The R&D activities carried out by IRI will be transferred to Inno AI Tech Corp, a new subsidiary of the Company.

 

On January 21, 2024, the Company incorporated Inno Disrupts Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary in Texas.

On October 18, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 10,000 shares of Lear Group Limited (“Lear”), a Hong Kong company, from its shareholder for a total consideration of $1,300. As a result of this transaction, Lear became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Lear was undertaken to support the Company’s entry into a new business initiative focused on electronic product trading.

 

On December 13, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 10,000 shares of Baymax High Technology Co., Limited (“Baymax”), a Hong Kong company, from its shareholder for a total consideration of $1,300. As a result of this transaction, Baymax became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of significant accounting policies

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company’s fiscal year end date is September 30.

 

Consolidated principles of consolidation

 

The Consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts on the prior year’s consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations and cash flows were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, with no effect on ending stockholders’ equity.

 

Going concern

 

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had total cash and cash equivalent of $10,130,942 and accumulated deficit of $14,818,007. For the year ended September 30, 2025, the Company had incurred a net loss of $7,009,846 and net cash used cash in operations of $4,728,738. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Based on our current operating and investing plan, the management has concluded that substantial doubt is not alleviated regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

 

The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.

 

Standby Equity Purchase Agreement

 

On July 4, 2025, the Company entered into the SEPA with the Investors. Pursuant to SEPA, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell, from time to time at the Company’s discretion, up to $6 million of shares of our common stock to the Investors at a price equal to 40%, or a percentage between 20% and 40% as determined by us, of the Minimum Price, or $1.20, subject to specified limitations and conditions, including a $0.5 million minimum per drawdown and a 9.99% beneficial ownership cap per investor. The SEPA has a three-year term and may be terminated earlier by the Company, and the Company expect to use any proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. The SEPA, in its entirety, is classified as a derivative liability because it did not meet the equity classification criteria under ASC 815-10, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-10”). The SEPA derivative is valued based on a scenario-based valuation model utilizing the expected draws, probability of the draws and risk-free rate inputs. The change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Use of estimates and assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of amounts held as cash on hand, bank and money market deposits, and marketable securities with maturities of less than 90 days.

 

From time to time, the Company may maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $250,000, which is currently the maximum amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in noninterest bearing accounts). The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

 

Accounts receivable

 

During the ordinary course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its customers. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect from customers. Management reviews its accounts receivable balances each reporting period to determine if an allowance for credit loss is required.

 

In October 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Topics 326 — Credit Loss, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology, for its accounting standard for its trade accounts receivable.

 

F-10

 

 

The Company continuously monitors the recoverability of accounts receivable. If there are any indicators that a customer may not make payment, the Company may consider making provision for non-collectability for that particular customer. At the same time, the Company may cease further sales or services to such customer. The following are some of the factors that the Company develops allowance for credit losses:

 

	●	the customer fails to comply with its payment schedule;
	●	the customer is in serious financial difficulty;
	●	a significant dispute with the customer has occurred regarding job progress or other matters;
	●	the customer breaches any of its contractual obligations;
	●	the customer appears to be financially distressed due to economic or legal factors;
	●	the business between the customer and the Company is not active; and
	●	other objective evidence indicates non-collectability of the accounts receivable.

 

The adoption of the credit loss accounting standard has no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at carrying amount less an allowance for credit losses, if any. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments based on contractual terms. The Company reviews the collectability of its receivables on a regular and ongoing basis. The Company has also included in the calculation of allowance for credit losses based on its customers’ businesses and their ability to pay their accounts receivable. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. The Company also considers external factors to the specific customer, including current conditions and forecasts of economic conditions. In the event we recover amounts previously written off, we will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses.

 

Equity investment

 

The Company measure investments in equity investments without readily determinable fair value using a measurement alternative that measures these securities at the cost method minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes on a non-recurring basis. Gains and losses on these securities are recognized in other income and expenses.

 

Fair values of financial instruments

 

ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and all other current assets and liabilities are approximate fair values due to their short-term nature.

 

For other financial instruments to be reported at fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

 

Level 1 —	Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2 —	Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3 —	Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.

 

On July 4, 2025, the Company entered into the SEPA with the Investors. Upon execution of the SEPA, the Company determined the fair value of the SEPA derivative liability to be $635,669 based on a scenario-based model. The Company determined the fair value of the SEPA derivative liability to be $370,546 at September 30, 2025; the change in fair value is recognized in other income and expense. The carrying amounts of SEPA derivative liability represent the remeasurement to fair value each reporting period based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, using assumptions made by us, including the market price of our common stock and the observed volatility of a peer group of companies.

The following tables summarize the changes in fair value of SEPA derivative liability for the years ended September 30, 2025. The SEPA derivative liabilities were not present for the year ended September 30, 2024.

 Summary of Changes in Fair Value of  Derivative Liabilities

Level 3 Liabilities		Fair Value at September 30, 2024				Issuances (Settlements)				Change in Unrealized (Gains) Losses				Fair Value at September 30, 2025
SEPA derivative liability		$	-			$	-			$	370,546			$	370,546

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 since its inception and recognizes revenue from product and service sales revenues, net of promotional discounts and return allowances, if any, when the following revenue recognition criteria are met: a contract has been identified, separate performance obligations are identified, the transaction price is determined, the transaction price is allocated to separate performance obligations and revenue is recognized upon satisfying each performance obligation. The Company transfers the risk of loss or damage upon delivery, therefore, revenue from product sales is recognized when it is delivered to the customer. For services, all sales are recognized upon completion based on terms stated in the sales agreements.

 

The Company evaluates the criteria of ASC 606 — Revenue Recognition Principal Agent Considerations in determining whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount earned as commissions. Generally, when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide a specified good or service, the Company is subject to inventory risk before the good or service has been transferred to a customer and the Company has discretion in establishing the price, revenue is recorded at gross.

 

Payments received prior to the delivery of goods to customers are recorded as unearned revenue.

 

Sales discounts are recorded in the period in which the related sale is recognized. Sales return allowances are estimated based on historical amounts and are recorded upon recognizing the related sales. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as selling expenses.

 

Revenue from electronic products trading is recognized at the point of delivery when the customer obtains control of the products.

 

Costs and expenses

 

Costs and expenses are operating expenses, which consist of costs of material and labor, selling, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation, are expensed as incurred.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of material and finished goods ready for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company values its inventory using the FIFO costing method. The Company’s policy is to include as a part of cost of goods sold any freight incurred to ship the product from its vendors to warehouses. Outbound freight costs related to shipping costs to customers are considered periodic costs and are reflected in selling expenses. The Company regularly reviews inventory and considers forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence.

 

If the estimated realizable value of the inventory is less than cost, the Company makes provisions in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated net realizable value. The Company regularly assesses its inventory for obsolescence and records an allowance only when the inventory is no longer suitable for reproduction. The Company’s inventory generally has a long life cycle and does not become obsolete quickly.

 

F-12

 

 

Deferred offering costs

 

The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting and other third-party fees that are directly related to an equity financing that is probable of successful completion until such financing is consummated. After consummation of an equity financing, these costs are recorded as a reduction of the proceeds received as a result of the financing. Should a planned equity financing be abandoned, terminated or significantly delayed, the deferred offering costs are immediately written off to operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of determination.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at their historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation on property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

 Schedule of depreciation on property and equipment

Machinery and equipment		7 years
Office equipment		5 years
Motor vehicles		5 years
Leasehold improvements		the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvements

 

Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

 

Upon sale or disposal of an asset, the historical cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization of such asset were removed from their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the statements of income.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, no impairment expenses for property and equipment were recorded during the year ended September 30, 2025. The Company recorded $23,911 impairment loss during the year ended September 30, 2024 to write down the leasehold improvement balance as a result of the early termination of the lease in Corona CA.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the amount assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized but are subject to impairment testing on an annually basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, regulatory environment, established business plans, operating performance indicators or competition. Potential impairment indicators may also include, but are not limited to, (i) significant changes to estimates and assumptions used in the most recent annual or interim impairment testing, (ii) downward revisions to internal forecasts, and the magnitude thereof, (iii) declines in our market capitalization below our book value, and the magnitude and duration of those declines, (iv) a reorganization resulting in a change to our operating segments, and (v) other macroeconomic factors, such as increases in interest rates that may affect the weighted average cost of capital, volatility in the equity and debt markets, or fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that may negatively impact our reported results of operations.

 

F-13

 

 

Leases

 

On its inception date, the Company adopted ASC 842 — Leases (“ASC 842”), which requires lessees to record right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and related lease obligations on the balance sheet, as well as disclose key information regarding leasing arrangements.

 

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease terms and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company applies ASC No. 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” which requires that share-based payment transactions with employees and nonemployees upon adoption of ASU 2018-07, be measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity instrument and recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period, with a corresponding addition to equity. Under this method, compensation cost related to employee share options or similar equity instruments is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period. In addition to the requisite service period, the Company also evaluates the performance condition and market condition under ASC 718-10-20. For an award which contains both a performance and a market condition, and where both conditions must be satisfied for the award to vest, the market condition is incorporated into the fair value of the award, and that fair value is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period or nonemployee’s vesting period if it is probable the performance condition will be met. If the performance condition is ultimately not met, compensation cost related to the award should not be recognized (or should be reversed) because the vesting condition in the award has not been satisfied.

 

The Company will recognize forfeitures of such equity-based compensation as they occur.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company uses the management approach in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions, allocating resources and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. During the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker. The Company’s chief operating decision maker regularly reviews consolidated assets and consolidated operating results prepared under U.S. GAAP for the enterprise as a whole when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company. Consequently, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment as defined under ASC 280-10-50.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

F-14

 

 

As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax position, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740 since inception and has analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where the Company is required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in such jurisdictions. The Company has identified the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the states of Texas and California, as its “major” tax jurisdictions. However, the Company has certain tax attribute carryforwards which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

 

The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes.

 

Commitments and contingencies

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to certain contingencies, including legal proceedings and claims arising out of the business that relate to a wide range of matters, such as government investigations and tax matters. The Company recognizes its liability for such contingency if it determines it is probable that a loss has occurred and a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made. The Company may consider many factors in making these assessments including historical and specific facts and circumstances of each matter.

 

Earnings per share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income attributable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities to issue common stock were exercised.

 

Recently issued but not yet adopted accounting pronouncements

 

In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The legislation includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Act and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework, and the restoration of favorable business tax provisions, such as 100% bonus depreciation and the business interest expense limitation, among others. The legislation contains multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. While we are continuing to evaluate the full impact of the legislation, we do not expect the OBBBA to have a material effect on our fiscal 2025 effective tax rate.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new guidance requires enhanced disclosures about income tax expenses. The Company is required to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of the fiscal year 2026. Early adoption is permitted on a prospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our annual income tax disclosures.

 

In June 2022, FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this ASU clarify the guidance in ASC 820 on the fair value measurement of an equity security that is subject to a contractual sale restriction and require specific disclosures related to such an equity security. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

 

F-15

 

 

Subsequent events

 

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date that the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. Material subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in the consolidated financial statements are presented.

Note 9 — Standby Equity Purchase Agreement

 

On July 4, 2025, the Company entered into the SEPA with the Investors. Pursuant to SEPA, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell, from time to time at the Company’s discretion, up to $6 million of shares of our common stock to the Investors at a price equal to 40%, or a percentage between 20% and 40% as determined by us, of the Minimum Price, or $1.20, subject to specified limitations and conditions, including a $0.5 million minimum per drawdown and a 9.99% beneficial ownership cap per investor. The SEPA has a three-year term and may be terminated earlier by the Company, and the Company expect to use any proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. The SEPA, in its entirety, is classified as a derivative liability because it did not meet the equity classification criteria under ASC 815-10, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-10”). Changes in the fair value are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The SEPA is accounted for as a derivative and is recognized as a liability measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820. The Company intends to utilize the SEPA to access capital to fund its operations. 3,200,000 shares have been issued for the year ended September 30, 2025.

 

A third-party independent appraiser was engaged to calculate the estimated fair value of the SEPA. The estimated fair value of the SEPA liability on July 4, 2025, was $635,669, which was determined using a scenario-based valuation model. The liability was remeasured to its fair value was $370,546 as of September 30, 2025, and is classified within non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. This remeasurement resulted in the recognition of a gain of $265,123 for the year ended September 30, 2025, classified as change in fair value of SEPA in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Assumptions used in the valuation are described below:

 Schedule of fair value measurement inputs and valuation techniques

Valuation assumptions:		September 30, 2025				July 4, 2025
Expected draws		$	3,600,000			$	4,950,000
Expected probability of draws			90	%			90	%
Risk-free interest rate			1.07	%			1.39	%

 

The estimated fair value of the liability was determined using a scenario-based valuation model which assigned a probability to a number of different outcomes. The inputs and assumptions utilized in the calculation require management to apply judgment and make estimates including:

 

(a)	total expected draws of $3,600,000 at September 30, 2025;
(b)	the expected probability of the draws on the SEPA, which the Company estimate based on our expectation of the draws being completed; and
(c)	risk-free interest rate, which was determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve for time periods commensurate with the expected term of the agreement in relation to the date of the expected draw.

 

These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with exact precision.

 

On August 27, 2025, the Company sold 3,200,000 shares of common stock under the SEPA, raising approximately $1,536,000.00.

 

Note 10 — Discontinued operations

 

On March 4, 2025, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Architectix Limited, pursuant to which the Company sold all issued and outstanding shares it owns in Inno Metal Studs Corp (“IMSC”) and Inno AI Tech Corp (“AT”) for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000.

 

On March 28, 2025, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Strucraft Group Limited, pursuant to which the Company sold all the membership interest it owns in Castor Building Tech LLC (“CBT”), which represents 55% of the outstanding membership interest in Castor Building Tech LLC, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000.

 

On April 8, 2025, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Strucraft Group Limited, pursuant to which the Company sold all issued and outstanding shares it owns in Inno Disrupts Inc. (“Disrupts”) for an aggregate purchase price of $100. The Company determined that Disrupts was not a significant subsidiary, and the disposition of Disrupts did not constitute a strategic shift that would have a major effect on the Company’s operations or financial results. As a result, the results of operations for Disrupts were not reported as discontinued operations under the guidance of ASC 205 “Presentation of Financial Statements.” The disposition of Disrupts resulted in the recognition of a loss of $26,200 for the year ended September 30, 2025, classified as loss on investment disposal in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Note 12 — Equity

 

The Company was incorporated in Texas on September 8, 2021. The total authorized shares of capital stock were 200,000,000 shares without par value.

 

On November 30, 2022, the Company effected a forward stock split (the “Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of the common stock at a split ratio of 2-for-1. Further on July 24, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of the common stock at a split ratio of 1-for-2 such that every holder of common stock of the Company shall receive one share of common stock for every two shares of common stock held and to reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 100,000,000. Shortly after the Reverse Stock Split, the Board of Directors of the Company approved issuance of additional shares to preserve the original purchase price per share of the shares sold in the period from February 1 to June 30, 2023.

 

On October 9, 2024, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, no par value, (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each share of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to October 9, 2024 were automatically converted into one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. The Common Stock began trading on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on October 10, 2024. The trading symbols for the Common Stock remains “INHD”. The Reverse Stock Split did not reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and did not change the par value of the Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split affected all stockholders uniformly. Except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split resulted in the stockholders’ fractional shares being rounded up, no other effects affect stockholder’s ownership percentage of the Company’s shares of Common Stock. 199,787 fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. All share numbers of the Company’s Common Stock are stated on a post-split basis.

Note 13 — Concentration of risk

 

Credit risk

As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, $420,086 and $1,526,661 respectively, were deposited with various major financial institutions in the United States.

F-23

 

 

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby exposing the Company to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of its customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

 

Customer and vendor concentration risk

 

For the year ended September 30, 2025, two customers accounted for 77% of the Company’s total revenues. For the year ended September 30, 2024, four customers accounted for 90% of the Company’s total revenues. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, $Nil outstanding of accounts receivable.

As of September 30, 2024, accounts payable to two suppliers accounted for 51% of the Company’s total accounts payable.

 

Note 14 — Commitments and contingencies

 

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business.

 

On July 23, 2024, the Company reached a settlement with a subcontractor’s customer for $73,000.

 

In December 2024, a former shareholder of the Company (the “Shareholder”) filed a complaint against the Company and other entities and individuals affiliated with the Company in the Orange County Superior Court of California, alleging financial losses related to his investment in entities affiliated with the Company. The Shareholder claims he invested approximately $500,000 and later sold his shares for $7 million but alleges that, absent interference by an initial public offering organizer, the shares could have been sold for $9 million. Accordingly, he claims to have lost a potential gain of $2 million. The case is currently in the pre-answer stage. The Company has filed a petition to compel arbitration, seeking to move the dispute to arbitration in Texas. A demurrer has also been filed on behalf of one of the individual defendants represented by the Company’s counsel, challenging the legal sufficiency of the complaint. The Company believes that the complaint is without any merit and intends to defend the matter vigorously. Since the case is currently in the pre-answer stage, an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this moment.

 

Except as set forth above, we are not currently a party to any legal proceeding that we believe would adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows and are not aware of any material legal proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities.

 

Note 15 — Income taxes

 

United States

 

On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law H.R.1, formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Legislation”). The Tax Legislation significantly revised the U.S. tax code by (i) lowering the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate from 35% to 21%, (ii) implementing a territorial tax system, (iii) imposing a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries, (iv) requiring a current inclusion of global intangible low taxed income of certain earnings of controlled foreign corporations in U.S. federal taxable income, (v) creating the base erosion anti-abuse tax regime, (vi) implementing bonus depreciation that will allow for full expensing of qualified property, and (vii) limiting deductibility of interest and executive compensation expense, among other changes. The Company has computed its tax expenses using the new statutory rate effective on January 1, 2018 of 21%.

 

Other provisions of the new legislation include, but are not limited to, limiting deductibility of interest and executive compensation expense. These additional items have been considered in the income tax provision for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

 

F-24

 

 

Texas imposes a franchise tax that applies to most business entities that are formed or qualified to do business, or which are otherwise doing business, in Texas. Under the Texas franchise tax, a 0.75% tax is imposed for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 on the Company’s taxable margin that is apportioned to Texas. Taxable margin is generally defined as revenues less certain costs.

 

Hong Kong

 

Lear and Baymax are incorporated in Hong Kong. Under the two-tiered profits tax rates regime in Hong Kong, the first HK$2 million of profits of the qualifying group entity will be taxed at 8.25%, and profits above HK$2 million will be taxed at 16.5%. Lear and Baymax had no taxable income for the periods presented; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

 

The income tax provision for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted of the following:

 

Schedule of income tax provision

		2025				2024

The company has U.S. federal net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $3.9 million and $4.1 million for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The operating losses do not expire. The company also has Hong Kong net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $356 thousand and $0 for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The operating losses do not expire.

Valuation Allowance

 

We periodically assess whether it is more likely than not whether we will generate sufficient taxable income to realize our deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance if it’s we deem that will not likely be able to realize the benefit associated with our deferred tax assets. We consider all available positive and negative evidence and make certain assumptions to make this determination. We review our deferred tax liabilities, historical earnings, history of cycles of earnings and losses within our industry, our business environment and the potential to generate current and future earnings. We cannot determine at this time when we will be able to generate sufficient taxable income to realize our deferred tax assets. We therefore have recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets.

 

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as state income tax in certain jurisdictions. The tax years 2021 to 2025 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. The following is a reconciliation of income tax expenses at the effective rate to income tax at the calculated statutory rates:

 

Schedule of effective rate income tax rate income tax

As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the outstanding income tax payable was $800 and $0, respectively.

 

Note 16 — Segment Information

 

Reportable Segments

 

The Company operates as a single reportable segment, which is consistent with how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer, allocates resources and assesses performance. The Company’s operations are centralized and integrated, with financial results reviewed and managed on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company has one reportable segment under ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting.

 

Measure of Segment Profit or Loss

 

The CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis, using Net Income as the primary measure of segment performance to monitor budget versus actual results and decide where to allocate and invest additional resources to achieve continued growth. Net Income is defined as revenue less cost of goods sold and operating expenses, and other segment items (including interest income, interest expense, other income and other expenses), and income taxes.

 

Significant Segment Expense Categories Provided to the CODM

 

The CODM regularly receives and reviews the following expense categories, which are included in the segment’s measure of profit or loss.

Note 18 — Subsequent events

 

On October 2, 2025, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a non-related party, providing a principal amount of $2,000,000 at an annual interest rate of 4.5%. The loan term is twelve months, with the principal and accrued interest due for repayment on or before October 1, 2026.

 

On November 12, 2025, the Company entered into a sales agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Aegis Capital Corp. (the “Sales Agent”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, to or through the Sales Agent, shares of the Company’s common stock, with no par value, having an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million (the “Placement Shares”).

 

The Company is not obligated to sell any Placement Shares under the Sales Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Sales Agent will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), to sell Placement Shares from time to time based upon the Company’s notice and instructions, up to the amount specified therein. Under the Sales Agreement, the Sales Agent may sell Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, including sales made directly on Nasdaq or on any other existing trading market or directly to the Sales Agent as principal in negotiated transactions. The Sales Agent may also sell Placement Shares by any other method permitted by law, including in privately negotiated transactions, with the Company’s consent.

 

In accordance with the Sales Agreement, the Company will pay the Sales Agent in cash, upon each sale of Placement Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement, an amount equal to three percent (3.0%) of the gross proceeds from each sale of Placement Shares. The Sales Agreement may be terminated by the Company and the Sales Agent at any time upon notice to the other party. If not terminated earlier, the Sales Agreement will automatically terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) May 12, 2026 (the sixth month anniversary of the date of the Sales Agreement), or (ii) the issuance and sale of all of the Placement Shares under the Sales Agreement.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our Board, senior management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

 

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. We continue to review our internal control over financial reporting and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the control deficiencies identified during this evaluation and set forth below, our senior management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025 due to the existence of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as described below.

 

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 our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness identified relates to lack of adequate policies and procedures in internal control function to ensure that proper control and procedures have been designed and implemented over key business cycles, and lack of sufficient in-house accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge and experience in the application of U.S. GAAP. We have initiated remediation efforts, including engaging external consultants and will continue to monitor and enhance our internal controls.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

An evaluation was performed under the supervision of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure 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 the SEC’s rules and forms due to material weaknesses in our internal controls described below.

 

●

Lack of adequate policies and procedures in internal control function to ensure that proper control and procedures have been designed and implemented over key business cycles.

 

●

Lack of sufficient in-house accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge and experience in the application of U.S. GAAP.

 

We plan to hire additional personnel or consultant with relevant experience and qualifications to design and implement internal control over key business cycles to strengthen the internal control system, and plan to hire additional in-house accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge and experience in the application of U.S. GAAP. However, we cannot assure you that we will remediate our material weaknesses in a timely manner.

 

Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Our control systems are designed to provide such reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Other than the ongoing remediation efforts described above, we have made no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight

 

Our Board has responsibility for the oversight of our risk management processes and, either as a whole or through its committees, regularly discusses with management our major risk exposures, their potential impact on our business and the steps we take to manage them.

While the Company has not yet experienced a significant impact related to the situation in Ukraine caused by the Russian invasion, the Board will also closely monitor the risks in relation to such developments, including but not limited to risks related to cybersecurity, sanctions, supply chain, suppliers and service providers. Similarly, our board is monitoring US-China relations to monitor risks such as political disruption, supply chain, and foreign exchange.

 

Board of Directors

 

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board consists of 5 directors, 3 of whom qualify as “independent” under the listing standards of Nasdaq.

 

Directors serve until the next annual meeting and until their successors are elected and qualified. Officers are appointed to serve until their successors have been elected and qualified.

 

Director Independence

 

Our Board is composed of a majority of “independent directors” as defined under the rules of Nasdaq. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

 

Under such definition, our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our Board has determined that Yufang Qu, Tao Tu and Yongbo Mo are all independent directors of the Company.

 

Committees of the Board of Directors

 

Committees of the Board were established and took effect upon the closing of our IPO on December 18, 2023. Our committees include an audit committee and a compensation committee. Each such committee has the composition and responsibilities described below:

In addition, the Company has certified to Nasdaq that the committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual’s financial sophistication.

Director Qualifications

 

The Company does not have a standing nominating committee. Instead, our independent directors collectively fulfill the responsibilities that would otherwise be assigned to a nominating and corporate governance committee, including developing and recommending to our board of directors appropriate criteria, including desired qualifications, expertise, skills and characteristics, for selection of new directors and periodically reviews the criteria adopted by our board of directors and, if appropriate, recommends changes to such criteria. The Board believes that this approach is appropriate given the Company’s size, board composition and current governance structure.

 

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock (“Ten Percent Holders”) to file with the SEC reports of their share ownership and changes in their share ownership of our common stock. Directors, executive officers and Ten Percent Holders are also required to furnish us with copies of all ownership reports they file with the SEC. To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us, the following former directors, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and Ten Percent Holders were complied with, with the exception of the following:

 

Name		Number of Late Reports(1)				Number of Transactions Not Timely Reported				Failure to file Requested Forms(1)
Ding Wei			1				1				1
Mengshu Shao			1				1				1

The above individuals have each confirmed with the Company that they intend to complete filings of the delinquent Section 16(a) reports as soon as commercially practicable.

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jobs Act.
