On August 29, 2022, we acquired the operations of Airborne Response LLC, a Florida limited liability company originally formed in August 2016. Airborne Response LLC changed its name to Airborne Response Corp. (“Airborne Response”) and converted from a limited liability company to a corporation. Airborne Response currently serves an existing base of enterprise customers, including Florida Power & Light (“FPL”), Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, and Motorola Solutions under long-term contracts and was actively engaged in supporting state and local agency response, relief, and recovery efforts in the aftermath of Category 4 Hurricane Ian in October 2022. In November 2023, Airborne Response was awarded its first Drone as a First Responder (“DFR”) services contract by a city police department in South Florida under which, it provides operational support for law enforcement, public safety, and other first responders, assisting them to utilize advanced, U.S.-friendly (Blue-UAS) drone technologies for both “Blue Sky” normal business operations as well as “Gray Sky” rapid incident management and disaster response operations. During 2025, Airborne Response was awarded two aerial drone services contracts by two power utility customers serving millions of central Florida residents.

We currently maintain a fleet of eleven drones through Airborne Response Corp. In the aftermath of natural disasters when our clients require additional support, we bring on outside contractors that have obtained a Remote Pilot Certificate from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). These outside contractors supply their own drones to complete fieldwork that is then reviewed by the Airborne Response team. Further, we provide a system for imagery data from third-party drones operated by outside contractors to be uploaded and analyzed leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Safe Pro AI LLC

On March 9, 2023, we acquired the assets and intellectual property of Demining Development LLC, a New York limited liability company formed on February 22, 2021. On August 30, 2023, the Company changed its name to Safe Pro AI LLC (“Safe Pro AI”). Safe Pro AI is a developer of patented artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning (“ML”) and computer vision systems technologies for the rapid processing and analysis of drone-based imagery. Safe Pro AI’s capabilities enable the rapid, automated processing of aerial imagery (collectively referred to as “Safe Pro Object Threat Detection” or “SPOTD”) making it an ideal solution for several photogrammetry applications including demining, military, law enforcement and security as well as critical infrastructure inspection and agriculture. Powered by the Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) Cloud, Safe Pro AI’s technology is initially being applied to the identification, classification, and clearance of landmines. The SPOTD technology is also integrated into a real-time, locally processed Windows-based personal computer application called ONSIGHT which enables real-time visual indications and alerts of threats. ONSIGHT is also being incorporated into a turnkey, standalone hardware/software solution called NODE (“Navigation, Observation & Detection Engine”) which provides local /edge computing and processing of drone-based imagery to create maps without requiring connectivity to the internet. Built with an extensive proprietary landmine and unexploded ordnance (“UXO”) dataset, Safe Pro AI and its SPOTD technology can rapidly detect and identify threats present in drone imagery, plot detections on maps, and relay precise GPS location and actionable reporting information to decision makers and ground personnel. This capability greatly increases situational awareness for soldiers and helps address the scale and improve the efficacy of remediation efforts versus existing human and dog-based identification methods. Through the combination of AI, ML, and drone technologies, Safe Pro AI’s new solutions directly address the limitations of current mine/UXO threat detection and clearance methodologies which can be slow, expensive, and dangerous.

The Company intends to utilize its AI, ML and computer vision analysis and reporting technology to create and analyze large datasets for a number of uses outside of demining where it can uniquely be utilized to rapidly analyze imagery collected from drones to provide actionable intelligence on the area of interest through the creation of detailed, high resolution orthomosaic maps and real-time visual threat indications. The Company is currently building on over three years of real-world experience in Ukraine, expanding SPOTD into a broad array of military and defense markets where its integration into existing tactical hardware platforms (e.g., the US Army’s Tactical Assault Kit or TAK system) can be used in force protection applications. For example, the Company’s SPOTD technology can integrate seamlessly with military communication systems, ground vehicles, and C6ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Combat systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) frameworks enabling soldiers to access real-time threat alerts on mobile devices, vehicle displays, and tactical networks, providing unmatched precision in navigating hazardous environments. Additionally, its comprehensive mapping capabilities enable route planning featuring 3D terrain modeling in support of safe autonomous, unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) operations.

Highlighted Market Opportunities

Artificial Intelligence and Dataset Development

The Company intends to utilize Safe Pro AI’s technology, which enables the capture and rapid processing of large amounts of visual imagery to create new high-fidelity maps and data outputs utilizing AI and proprietary datasets for customers to analyze their existing data. These AI datasets and related software tools and reporting capabilities would help enterprise and government customers quickly assess the situation in agriculture fields, around critical infrastructure, sensitive facilities or any location of interest (ex: borders, ports, runways, etc.). Safe Pro AI’s product is specialized application of artificial intelligence in the large AI image analysis and recognition market, specifically focused on applying machine learning to the processing of drone-based imagery for object identification.

Landmine Detection and Remediation

The threat of anti-personnel landmines and/or unexploded ordnance is present in approximately 60 countries across Africa, the Middle East, South America, Southeast Asia, and throughout mainland China and Russia (source: Statista). The current methodology for the detection and remediation of landmines and UXO requires the use of specially trained personnel using handheld detectors and dogs which can be slow, expensive, and dangerous.

The Ukraine Crisis: In Ukraine, The World Bank, The Ukraine Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment, February 2025, estimates that more than 138,500 km2 or nearly 53,000 square miles, will require a non-technical survey to determine the level of contamination with land mines and unexploded ordnance. The non-technical survey is the first step in analyzing an area for contamination.

The Safe Pro Solution: To address this scale and scope of the demining challenge in both conflict and non-conflict zones, we utilize AI, ML and computer vision capabilities and drones to enable the rapid, automated processing of aerial and ground-based imagery to detect threats including landmines and UXO. Safe Pro AI’s software, called SpotlightAITM provides an efficient and scalable solution to detect, map, and categorize different types of landmines, UXO, and sub-munitions and other ERW (“Explosive Remnants of War”) on the surface, greatly enhancing the speed and accuracy with which a non-technical survey can be produced. This visual dataset can be uploaded to the Cloud or processed locally on a portable Windows-based personal computer, to provide ground personnel with detailed, actionable intelligence about the location and type of hazard present, dramatically improving the efficiency, speed, and safety of any operation. As of March 2026, SpotlightAITM, powered by AWS, has processed over 2.4 million drone images and detected over 45,000 real-world explosive threats in Ukraine. Additionally, ground personnel can be equipped with an array of advanced personal ballistic protective equipment, thereby providing customers with a complete solution for the remediation of landmines and other hazardous remnants of war. Once an area is cleared, an additional survey can be done to evaluate the clearance efforts. We have been providing Safe Pro AI’s technology to customers on a limited trial basis. As of March 2026, SpotlightAI™ has analyzed more than 2,470,927 drone images from Ukraine, identifying more than 45,689 landmines and unexploded remnants of war across 12,111 hectares (29,914 acres) of Ukrainian territory.

During 2025, the Company entered multiple Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with government, commercial and university entities in Ukraine including its National Mine Action Center of Excellence, the country’s leading grain export and agricultural organization NIBULON Ltd., and the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, Ukraine’s largest technical university. Through these relationships, the Company will conduct research and collaborate on the development of new technologies, education and training programs incorporating cutting-edge AI technology for applications including demining, environmental safety, agricultural and rare earth geology projects as well as infrastructure reconstruction.

Force Protection for the Military

Operations by ground personnel (i.e., soldiers) are inherently dangerous. Troop movement, on foot or by vehicle, exposes soldiers and assets to the risk of a wide array of explosive threats including landmines, anti-personnel mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Currently, we believe there are no well-adapted real-time systems fielded to alert personnel to the presence of potentially deadly small threats.

The Safe Pro Solution: To address this gap in force protection and safety, we are utilizing our AI, ML and computer vision capabilities with drones to enable the real-time, automated processing of aerial imagery to detect and identify possible threats and use that information to provide enhanced force protection through better situational awareness. Utilizing our “Safe Pro Object Threat Detection” or “SPOTD” technology, we are seeking to provide potentially lifesaving “know before you go” information on discrete threats which may be present in the area of operations. The Company’s SPOTD technology can integrate seamlessly with military communication systems, ground vehicles, and C6ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Combat systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) frameworks. Acting like a back-up camera in modern automobiles, with SPOTD, soldiers can gain access to real-time threat alerts on mobile devices, vehicle displays, and tactical networks, providing unmatched precision in navigating hazardous environments. The capability is immediately synergistic with the increased utilization of technologies such as the Tactical Assault Kit (TAK) for restricted US Army/military users or Team Awareness Kit (TAK) for non-restricted government users, which facilitate real-time coordination between team members including the sharing of video feeds and/or mapping applications. Additionally, in response to end-user demand for a solution that could enable the rapid collection and processing of drone-based imagery to identify emerging surface-level threats on the modern battlefield, creating 2D and 3D interactive, high-resolution maps locally at the tactical edge without requiring internet connectivity, the Company recently introduced and demonstrated its newly created SPOTD NODE (Navigation, Observation & Detection Engine). Based upon preliminary feedback received by potential end users, the Company believes there is demand for this unique solution within the U.S. armed forces and with international governments.

To address this opportunity, the Company intends to leverage industry relationships to access current and future contracting opportunities. As such, through Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with Ondas Holdings Inc. (Ondas), Unusual Machines Inc. (Unusual Machines), and Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (Red Cat), leaders in the U.S. drone industry, signed in August and September 2025, the Company intends to collaborate on the development and integration of the Company’s patented AI-powered drone imagery analysis and computer vision technologies into their respective hardware and software offerings.

Finally, during 2025, the Company conducted a series of presentations and demonstrations with U.S. Government and military potential end users and has been invited to participate in several U.S. Army exercises in 2026 where its technology solutions will be showcased as a potential tool for supporting force protection and mission planning operations.

Aerial Managed Services

The adoption of drone-based remote sensing technology has been rapid, enabled by its ability to quickly capture and relay high-resolution visual information and data quickly and accurately. Beyond the use of drones in military applications, technology has increasingly been utilized in applications including by government and commercial enterprise markets. These commercial markets include a wide array of sectors including agriculture, real estate, insurance, and the inspection of critical infrastructure such as telecommunications towers, rail and roadways, bridges, and power and utility grids

In response to greater use of drones in security, law enforcement and public safety applications, the Company’s Airborne Response is developing Drone as a First Responder (“DFR”), a new service that can provide autonomous drone operations in support of public safety agencies, critical infrastructure providers, security firms, and other mission-critical sectors that will garner substantial value from the gathering of information and/or carriage of cargo via advanced uncrewed aerial platforms. Once fully deployed, this advanced network will offer rapid incident response and assessment, capturing, and relaying real-time video and other relevant information to first responders for use in efficiently allocating resources and developing a response plan. We are currently under contract with a city police department in South Florida and are completing operational training ahead of expected system deployment and routine operations.

The PPE market includes an array of product types including hard and soft products including plates and vests, each offering different levels of protection, primarily level IIA, level II, level IIIA, level III, level IV as determined by government and industry standards. Currently, the GSA has made one purchase of EOD and PPE. In October 2023, Safe-Pro USA was certified as a HUBZone small business concern by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) program’s purpose is to provide Federal contracting assistance for qualified small business concerns located in historically underutilized business zones, in an effort to increase employment opportunities, investment, and economic development. The HUBZone program includes unique access to certain federal government contracts, set-aside opportunities, and priority consideration in competitive procurements for certified companies in compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). In late 2024 and through 2025, Safe-Pro USA has been designing and producing a series of new ultra-light and ultra-thin high-performance body armor plate products designed in compliance with the latest National Institute of Justice (NIJ) publication, Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor, NIJ Standard 0101.07, which specifies minimum performance requirements and test methods for the ballistic resistance of body armor used by U.S. law enforcement that is intended to protect the torso against handgun and rifle ammunition. It is a revision of National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Standard 0101.06, Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor, published in 2008. As of January 2026, Safe-Pro USA has multiple high performance, ultra-lightweight and ultra-thin hard armor plates undergoing certification testing by the NIJ for compliance with NIJ 0101.07 ballistic standard with certifications expected throughout 2026.

With respect to each of the above referenced product areas our market penetration is minimal. However, we believe that in each product area we are able to differentiate our services from our competitors such that we will be able to increase our market penetration.

Supplier Concentration

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we purchased 68.0% of our inventory from four suppliers, Avient Protective Materials, Lincoln Fabrics, Skydio, Inc., and Hisco/Precision Converting. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we purchased 35.7% of our inventory from two suppliers, Minelab Electronics and Southeast Drone Technologies. The loss of these suppliers may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. However, we believe that, if necessary, alternative vendors could supply similar products in adequate quantities to avoid material disruptions to operations.

Our Competition

As a combined, single organization, we compete in several industry segments including AI analysis, aerial managed services and body armor/personal protective equipment. Additionally, through our Safe Pro AI operation, we compete in the rapidly emerging AI-driven analytics market. Each of these industries are characterized by rapidly advancing technologies and material science, intense competition, and a strong emphasis on proprietary products. While we believe that our technology, knowledge and proven expertise in conducting drone-based operations and in the fabrication of protective gear utilizing advanced materials including composites and ceramics, provide competitive advantages, we face potential competition from many different sources. These sources include both domestic and international manufacturers of body armor and protective gear (such as Armor Express, MIRA Safety, RTS Tactical, Spartan Armor Systems), providers of drone services (such as Phoenix Drone Services LLC, Cyberhawk, Sky-Futures, DroneDeploy, Terra Drone Corporation, AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc., Aerodyne Group, Aerial Drone Services Inc., Sharper Shape Inc., Arch Aerial LLC, Australian UAV Pty Ltd., Drone Services Canada Inc., Dronegenuity, and FlyGuys.) and a large number of software technology development organizations.

Many of our competitors may have significantly greater financial resources, and expertise in research and development, manufacturing, government contracting, obtaining regulatory approvals, and marketing than we do. These competitors may also compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified software programmers, material engineers and fabricators and management personnel, as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to or necessary for our services. Smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly in regard to software development and software analytics through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies.

The key competitive factors affecting the success of our products vary by sector:

In body armor and protective gear, efficacy, safety, convenience, and price are principal selection criterion. Product pricing can be a major competitive consideration in certain international markets where customers may consider lower-cost/lower performance foreign-manufactured product options instead of high-quality/higher-performance Made in America products. As such, we may not be able to compete solely on pricing and our ability to compete in this market will be dependent on customers prioritizing what we believe are higher quality and higher performance products.
In aerial managed services, proximity to infrastructure or location and flight crew availability are major competitive factors. We are currently focused solely on providing these services in Florida and, as such, we may only compete in this market and not expand into new markets in the near future.
In AI development, software development expertise and system design can have a significant impact on customer selection. Additionally, expertise in dataset collection and processing capabilities is critical. Our ability to compete in this market is dependent on our software continuing to stay current with new technologies and developments, which will require continued research and development in this area. As a smaller company, we may be unable to compete with larger and better financed entities in this market.

Research and Development

Research and Development expenses consist of costs associated with personnel and contractor fees associated with the design and development of our products, product certification, travel, recruiting and information technology. We generally recognize research and development expenses as incurred. Development costs incurred prior to establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. We expect our research and development costs to continue to increase as we develop new products and modify existing products to meet the changes within our markets.

We continue to make significant investments in research and development relating to our technologies and products. Investments in new technology and processes are inherently speculative. Technical obstacles and challenges we encounter in our research and development process may result in delays in, or our abandonment of, product commercialization, substantially increase the costs of development and negatively affect our results of operations.

Research and Development expenses were $394,207 and $90,372 for the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $303,835 or 336.2%. The increase is primarily attributable to expanded development efforts and the engagement of external contractors to support enhancements to the artificial intelligence business.

Intellectual Property

Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we currently rely on a combination of trade secrets, including know-how, employee and third-party non-disclosure agreements, and other contractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology.

We maintain a program designed to identify technology that is appropriate for patent and trade secret protection, and we file patent applications in the United States and, when appropriate, certain other countries for inventions that we consider significant. On November 19, 2024, we were granted our first patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), for our technology that identifies, locates and maps explosives. The newly issued patent, US Patent No. 12,146,729 includes all 21 claims made in the Company’s original patent application entitled, “Systems and Methods for Detecting and Identifying Explosives.” These claims cover autonomous detection, identification, and labeling of explosives in orthomosaic images using AI processing of drone imagery. The patent expires in 2043. In December 2024, the Company filed a provisional patent application titled, “Object Detection Precision Enhancement Methods, Tools and Systems” which seeks intellectual property (IP) protection for the Company’s technology which utilizes drones and artificial intelligence and proprietary algorithms to reduce the false positive rate when identifying objects such as small explosives, landmines and unexploded ordnances. The Company filed a formal patent application on this system in December 2025. We may acquire patents through acquisitions or direct prosecution efforts and engage in licensing transactions to secure the right to use third parties’ patents. Although our business is not materially dependent upon any one patent, our patent rights and the products made and sold under our patents, taken as a whole, are a significant element of our business.

We also possess other intellectual property, including trademarks, know-how, trade secrets, design rights and copyrights. We control access to and use of our software, technology and other proprietary information through internal and external controls, including contractual protection with employees, contractors, customers and partners. Our software is protected by U.S. and international copyright, patent and trade secret laws. Despite our efforts to protect our software, technology and other proprietary information, unauthorized parties may still copy or otherwise obtain and use our software, technology and other proprietary information. In addition, we have expanded our international operations, and effective patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret protection may not be available or may be limited in foreign countries.

Companies in the industry in which we operate frequently are sued or receive informal claims of patent infringement or infringement of other intellectual property rights. We may receive such claims from companies, including from competitors and customers, some of which have substantially more resources and have been developing relevant technology similar to ours. As and if we become more successful, we believe that competitors will be more likely to try to develop products that are similar to ours and that may infringe on our proprietary rights. It may also be more likely that competitors or other third parties will claim that our products infringe their proprietary rights. Successful claims of infringement by a third party, if any, could result in significant penalties or injunctions that could prevent us from selling some of our products in certain markets, resulting in settlements or judgments that require payment of significant royalties or damages or require us to spend time and money developing non-infringing products. We cannot assure you that we do not currently infringe, or that we will not in the future infringe upon any third-party patents or other proprietary rights but will not and have never done so intentionally.

Regulation

Each of our operating subsidiaries is subject to different types of government regulation. We are not subject to any specific environmental regulation and do not incur any costs associated with compliance with any environmental regulation.

Safe-Pro USA LLC

Safe-Pro USA sells body armor and related protective personnel equipment. Exporting body armor from the United States involves compliance with various regulations governed by multiple federal agencies. These regulations are designed to control the distribution of military and dual-use items to ensure national security and foreign policy interests. The primary regulatory frameworks include the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) of the U.S. Department of Commerce, and trade sanctions regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Controls of the U.S. Treasury Department.

1. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR)

ITAR is administered by the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) and applies to defense articles and services listed on the U.S. Munitions List (USML). Level IV body armor is classified as defense articles. They are listed under Category X (Protective Personnel Equipment) of the USML. Exporting ITAR-controlled items requires a license from the DDTC.

Currently, we do not export Level IV body armor. Our protective equipment is exported for the use of non-governmental organizations in humanitarian demining efforts. While we are not currently subject to these export regulations, we are registered with DDTC.

2. Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

EAR is administered by U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) and regulates dual-use items (commercial items with potential military applications) listed on the Commerce Control List (CCL). Body armor intended for civilian use or law enforcement are classified as dual-use items. NIJ (National Institute of Justice) level III body armor formerly on the USML is now under ECCN 1A613 and is exempt from export licensing. The license requirements are dependent upon an item’s technical characteristics, the destination, the end-use, and the end-user, and other activities of the end-user. Some exports may qualify for exceptions under specific conditions (e.g., shipments to certain friendly countries or under specific value thresholds).

3. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) Regulations

OFAC is administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and regulates economic, and trade sanctions based on U.S. foreign policy and national security goals. OFAC limits or prohibits the export of certain items to countries, people and organizations. We do not export to Sanctioned Countries or Specially Designated Nationals for which a license would be required.

Additional Restrictions and Obligations

U.S. regulators may also impose new restrictions on previously non-controlled emerging or foundational items and technologies for which exports to countries such as China are deemed to present undesirable national security risks. Even without such legislative or regulatory action, we would be prohibited from exporting our products to any foreign recipient if we have knowledge that a violation of U.S. export regulations has occurred, is about to occur or is intended to occur in connection with the item. We maintain compliance with these various regulations by employing consultants with specific knowledge of ITAR and EAR compliance.

Safe Pro AI LLC

There is currently no state or federal regulation regarding the development of artificial intelligence or machine learning tools. Safe Pro AI does not collect personally identifiable information and is not subject to laws and regulations governing such information, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act. Safe Pro AI’s primary product, SpotlightAI™, is accessed through the web on a subscription basis. The subscription does not give a subscriber access to the code, only the right to the output of processed information. The code is executed on servers located in the United States and is not exported.

Regulations Relating to Drone Services

The UAS-based services we offer to customers within the United States are limited by federal laws and rulemaking, including the commercial drone regulations (Part 107) adopted by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (the “FAA”) at the end of August 2016. Our ability to develop and provide new services for use in the United States will be limited by federal law and regulations, which can be slow and subject to delays based on political turnover and disruptions in federal funding, among other reasons. The Part 107 rules limit the altitude, available airspace and weight of a drone and also requires the certification of remote pilots that can operate a drone for commercial purposes in the United States. We, or our customers, may seek waivers from the Part 107 rules for expanded operations; however, the processing of waivers is lengthy and uncertain. Political limits on the ability to issue new regulations could slow the growth of this market.

We are also subject to various domestic and international anti-corruption laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar anti-bribery and anti-kickback laws and regulations in other places where we do business. These laws and regulations generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from offering or making improper payments to governmental, political and certain international organization officials for the purpose of obtaining, retaining or directing business. Our exposure for violating these laws and regulations increases as our international presence expands and as we increase sales and operations in foreign jurisdictions.

In addition, we are subject to, or are expected to facilitate our customers’ compliance with, environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate or sell our products. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, the handling and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes, employee health and safety and the use of hazardous materials in, and the recycling of, our products.

Environmental Matters

Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including those governing the discharge, treatment, storage, transportation, remediation and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes; the restoration of damage to the environment; and health and safety matters. We believe that our operations are in material compliance with these laws and regulations. We incur expenses in complying with environmental requirements and could incur higher costs in the future as a result of more stringent requirements that may be enacted.

Some environmental laws, such as the U.S. federal Superfund law and similar state laws, can impose liability, without regard to fault, for the entire cost of the cleanup of contaminated sites on current or former site owners and operators or parties who sent waste to such sites. Based on currently available information, we do not believe that environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition; however, we could incur substantial additional costs in the future as a result of any additional obligations imposed or conditions identified at these or other sites in the future.

Employees

As of December 31, 2025, we employed fifteen full-time employees , and twenty-nine independent contractors. We have never had a work stoppage, and none of our employees are represented by a labor organization or under any collective bargaining arrangements. We consider our employee relations to be good. Certain employees are subject to contractual agreements that specify requirements regarding confidentiality and restrictions on working for competitors, as well as other standard matters.

Certain of our employees are licensed to fly our drones. Currently, two employees of our subsidiary, Airborne Response Corp., are licensed drone operators with FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificates. Employees of our remaining subsidiaries, Safe Pro AI LLC and Safe-Pro USA LLC, are not required to be licensed pilots, as neither subsidiary operates drones.

Properties

We do not own any real property. We currently rent our executive office space in Aventura, Florida, which also houses employees of our Airborne Response business unit. We also lease a 7,000 square foot facility located in Hialeah, Florida that is used for the manufacturing operations of our Safe-Pro USA business unit. We believe that our facilities are sufficient to meet our current needs and that suitable space will be available as and when needed.

Risk factors

As filed, 77,207 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. The risks described below include all the material risks to investors in this report that are known to our company. You should carefully consider such risks before participating in this report. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially harmed by these risks. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you might lose all or part of your investment. When determining whether to buy our common stock, you should also refer to the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

We lack an established operating history on which to evaluate our consolidated business and determine if we will be able to execute our business plan, and we can give no assurance that our operations will result in profits.

While Safe-Pro USA LLC has conducted business operations since 2008, Airborne Response Corp. has conducted business operations since 2016, and Safe Pro AI LLC has conducted business since 2021, they were later combined under Safe Pro Group on June 7, 2022, August 29, 2022, and March 9, 2023, respectively. We have a limited operating history as a consolidated company upon which you may evaluate our business and prospects. Our business operations are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties, expenses, and difficulties associated with early-stage enterprises. You should consider an investment in our company in light of these risks, uncertainties, expenses, and difficulties. Such risks include:

the absence of an operating history in our current business and at our current scale;
our ability to raise capital to develop our business and fund our operations;
expected continual losses for the foreseeable future;
our ability to anticipate and adapt to developing markets;
acceptance by customers;
limited marketing experience;
competition from competitors with substantially greater financial resources and assets;
the ability to identify, attract and retain qualified personnel; and
reliance on key personnel.

Because we are subject to these risks, and the other risks discussed below, you may have a difficult time evaluating our business and your investment in our company.

We incurred net losses in the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, we cannot assure you as to when, or if we will become profitable and generate positive cash flows.

We have incurred significant net losses since our inception. For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, we have incurred net losses of $14,322,779 and $7,428,461, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $28,573,530. If our revenue grows more slowly than is currently anticipated, or if operating expenses are higher than expected, we may be unable to consistently achieve profitability, our financial condition will suffer, and the value of our common stock could decline. Even if we are successful in increasing our sales, we may incur losses in the foreseeable future as we continue to develop and market our products and services. If sales revenue from any of our current products or any additional products that we develop in the future is insufficient, or if our product development is delayed, we may be unable to achieve profitability and, in the event, we are unable to secure financing for prolonged periods of time, we may need to temporarily cease operations and, possibly, shut them down altogether. Furthermore, even if we can achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase such profitability on a quarterly or annual basis, which would adversely impact on our financial condition and significantly reduce the value of our common stock.

We may need to raise additional capital to grow our business and satisfy our anticipated future liquidity needs, and we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Growing and operating our business will require significant cash outlays, liquidity reserves and capital expenditures and commitments to respond to business challenges, including developing or enhancing new or existing products. As of December 31, 2025, we had cash on hand of $16,793,088. If cash on hand is not sufficient to meet our cash and liquidity needs, we may need to seek additional capital, potentially through debt or equity financing. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of additional equity or convertible securities, your ownership interest may be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and a portion of our operating cash flows, if any, being dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on such indebtedness. In addition, debt financing may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that impose operating restrictions, such as restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt, the making of certain capital expenditures or the declaration of dividends. Any additional fundraising efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our products. Even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans, we may seek additional capital if market conditions are favorable or considering specific strategic considerations. If we are unable to obtain funding on a timely basis, we may be required to significantly curtail, delay or discontinue one or more of our research or product candidate development programs or the commercialization of any product candidate or be unable to expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities, as desired, which could materially affect our business, operating results and prospects and cause the price of the common stock to decline.

If we are unable to obtain additional funding when needed, our business operations will be harmed, and if we do obtain additional financing, our then-existing shareholders may suffer substantial dilution.

As we take steps in the commercialization and marketing of our products and technologies or respond to potential opportunities and/or adverse events, our working capital needs may change. We anticipate that if our cash and cash equivalents are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we will require additional funding to sustain our ongoing operations and to continue our research and development activities. We do not have any contracts or commitments for additional funding, and there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all, if needed. The inability to obtain additional capital will restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing to finance a revised growth plan, we will likely be required to curtail such plans or cease our business operations. Any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing shareholders.

Raising capital in the future could cause dilution to our existing shareholders and may restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights.

In the future, we may seek additional capital through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financing and collaborations and strategic and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a shareholder. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions such as incurring debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaboration or strategic alliance arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our future revenue streams or product candidates on terms that are not favorable to us.

Rapid technological change in our market and/or changes in customer requirements could cause our products to become obsolete or require us to redesign our products, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions and enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changing customer demands and evolving industry standards, any of which can render existing products obsolete. We believe that our future success will depend in large part on our ability to develop new and effective products in a timely manner and on a cost-effective basis. As a result of the complexities inherent in our products, major new products and product enhancements can require long development and testing periods, which may result in significant delays in the general availability of new releases or significant problems in the implementation of new releases. In addition, if we or our competitors announce or introduce new products our current or future customers may defer or cancel purchases of our products, which could materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. Our failure to develop successfully, on a timely and cost-effective basis, new products or new product enhancements that respond to technological change, evolving industry standards or customer requirements, would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Product development is a long, expensive and uncertain process, and our failure to develop marketable products in our various markets could adversely affect our business, prospects and financial condition.

The development of our technologies and products, particularly for our AI based UXO detection software, is a costly, complex and time-consuming process, and the investment in product development often involves a long wait until a return, if any, is achieved on such an investment. We continue to make significant investments in research and development relating to our technologies and products. Investments in new technology and processes are inherently speculative. Technical obstacles and challenges we encounter in our research and development process may result in delays in, or our abandonment of, product commercialization, substantially increase the costs of development and negatively affect our results of operations.

We compete with companies that have significantly more resources for their research and development efforts than we have or have received government contracts for the development of new products.

A number of our competitors have received considerable funding from the government or government-related sources to develop various technologies or products. Most of these organizations and many of our other competitors have greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and sales resources and capabilities than we do. In addition, with respect to products we are developing for certain markets, we anticipate increasing competition because of industry consolidation, which has enabled companies to enhance their competitive position and ability to compete against us. These organizations also compete with us to:

attract parties for acquisitions, joint ventures or other collaborations;
license proprietary technology that is competitive with the technology we are developing;
attract funding; and,
attract and hire talented and other qualified personnel.

Our competitors may succeed in developing and commercializing products earlier than we do. Our competitors may also develop products or technologies that are superior to those we are developing and render our technology candidates or technologies obsolete or non-competitive. If we cannot successfully compete with new or existing products and technologies, our marketing and sales will suffer, and our financial condition would be adversely affected.

Successful technical development of our products does not guarantee successful commercialization.

Even if we successfully complete the technical development for one or all of our product development programs, we may still fail to develop a commercially successful product for a number of reasons, including, among others, the following:

failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals for their use;
prohibitive production costs;
competing products;
lack of innovation of the product;

continuing technological changes in the market rendering the product obsolete;
failure to scale up our operations sufficiently to satisfy demand for our products;
ineffective distribution and marketing;
lack of sufficient cooperation from our partners; and
demonstrations of the products not aligning with or meeting customer needs.

Although we have sold our Safe-Pro USA and Airborne Response products and services, our success in the market for the products we develop will depend largely on our ability to prove our products’ capabilities. Upon demonstration, our products may not have the capabilities they were designed to have or that we believed they would have. Furthermore, even if we do successfully demonstrate our products’ capabilities, potential customers may be more comfortable doing business with a larger, more established, more proven company than ours. Moreover, competing products may prevent us from gaining wide market acceptance of our products. We may not achieve significant revenue from new product investments for a number of years, if at all.

Product quality problems, defects, errors or vulnerabilities in our products could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We may experience quality control problems in our manufacturing operations. We produce complex products that incorporate advanced materials and technologies and that we believe to be state-of-the-art for our industry. Despite our testing prior to their release, our products may contain undetected defects or errors, including design, manufacturing or quality issues, especially when first introduced or when new versions are released. Product defects or errors in the future could affect the performance of our products and could delay the development or release of new products or new versions of products. In addition, undetected quality problems may prompt unexpected product returns and adversely affect warranty costs. Allegations of unsatisfactory performance could cause us to lose revenue or market share, damage our reputation in the market and with customers, and increase our warranty costs and related returns, which could negatively impact our gross margins, cause us to incur substantial costs in redesigning the products, cause us to lose significant customers, subject us to liability for damages or divert our resources from other tasks, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In terms of potential product liability lawsuits, we maintain a commercial general liability policy for all products produced by its Safe-Pro USA subsidiary.

If we lose our rights to use software we currently license from third parties, we could be forced to seek alternative technology, which could increase our operating expenses and could adversely affect our ability to compete.

We license certain software for our products from a third party, generally on a non-exclusive basis. While currently, the license costs has not been material, we expect this to change. As revenue increases the costs of the licenses to support the revenue will increase as well. The termination of any of these licenses, or the failure of the licensors to adequately maintain or update their software, could delay our ability to ship our products while we seek to implement alternative technology offered by other sources and could require significant unplanned investments on our part if we are forced to develop alternative technology internally. In addition, alternative technology may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms from other sources. In the future, it may be necessary or desirable to obtain other third-party technology licenses relating to one or more of our products or relating to current or future technologies to enhance our product offerings. There is a risk that we will not be able to obtain licensing rights to the needed technology on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

We are dependent upon our distributors in certain jurisdictions to provide localized support and other local services which assist us in avoiding certain costs and investments.

We currently sell a number of our body armor products in certain markets through distributors, allowing us to avoid certain costs relating to operating in those markets, including but not limited to local support costs, costs of maintaining a local legal entity, administration costs and logistics. If we choose or are required to sell direct in these markets (due to customer preference, termination of a distributor relationship or other reasons), the cost advantages described will no longer be available to us, which could result in an increase in our operating costs.

If critical components or raw materials used to manufacture our products become scarce or unavailable, then we may incur delays in manufacturing and delivery of our products, which could damage our business.

We rely on a limited number of suppliers for the raw materials and hardware components necessary to manufacture our products. We do not have any long-term agreements with any of our suppliers that oblige them to continue to sell their materials or products to us. Our reliance on these suppliers involves significant risks and uncertainties as to whether our suppliers will provide an adequate supply of the required raw materials, component parts, and products. Lead-times for limited-source materials and components can be as long as six months, vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for a component at a given time. During the COVID-19 pandemic, shortages in allocations of components and materials resulted in delays in receiving materials. Shortages and delays in obtaining components and materials in the future could impede our ability to meet customer orders. In addition, as the demand for these components and other products increases, it is likely that the price of these components and materials will increase. If we are unable to obtain the raw materials or components used in our products, we may not be able to deliver our products on a timely or cost-effective basis, which could cause our customers to terminate their contracts with us, increase our costs and materially harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Furthermore, if our suppliers are unable or unwilling to supply the raw materials or components we require, we will be forced to locate alternative suppliers and possibly redesign our products to accommodate materials or components from alternative suppliers. This would likely cause significant delays in manufacturing and shipping our products to customers and could materially harm our business.

Our dependence and exposure on component suppliers are heightened when we introduce new products. New products frequently include materials components that we do not use in other product lines. When we introduce new products, we must secure reliable sources of supply for those products at volumes that will be dictated by end-customer demand. Demand is often difficult to predict until the new product is better established. Constraints in our supply chain can slow the progress of new product rollouts, adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition.

However, should we experience delays in getting the raw materials required for the production of our products, we believe we will be able to source additional suppliers that have the ability to supply the materials needed. We believe the use of these alternative suppliers can mitigate the risk of disruption if we are unable to obtain materials from our primary suppliers, but we will not be able to eliminate all delays if we are required to source new suppliers without notice.

Our potential customers for our Safe-Pro USA products are likely to include U.S. Government or Government-related entities that are subject to appropriations by Congress. Reduced funding for defense procurement and research and development programs would likely adversely impact on our ability to generate revenues.

We anticipate that a significant portion of our revenue to be derived from our ballistic protection products and a substantial percentage of our revenue to be derived from those product sales, at least in the near term, will come from U.S. Government and Government-related entities, including the U.S. Department of Defense and other departments and agencies. Government programs in which we may seek to participate must compete with other programs for consideration during Congress’ budget and appropriations hearings, and may be affected by changes not only in political power and appointments but also general economic conditions and other factors beyond our control. A government closure based on a failure of Congress to agree on federal appropriations or the uncertainty surrounding a continuing resolution may result in termination or delay of federal funding opportunities we are pursuing. Reductions, extensions, or terminations in a program in which we are seeking to participate, or overall defense or other spending could adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and realize any profits. We cannot predict whether potential changes in security, defense, communications, and intelligence priorities will afford opportunities for our business in terms of research and development or product contracts, but any reduction in government spending on such programs could negatively impact our ability to generate revenues. In addition, our ability to participate in U.S. Government programs may be affected by the adoption of new laws or regulations relating to government contracting or changes in existing laws or regulations, changes in political or public support for security and defense programs, and uncertainties associated with the current global threat environment and other geo-political matters.

Opportunities for expanded uses of our drone-based services in the United States are limited by federal and state laws and rulemaking.

Rapidly evolving technological advances in aviation, aerospace, automation, and/or remote sensing may reduce demand for some of our service offerings.

As technology improves, the capabilities surrounding the tools we use may render some of our service offerings obsolete. The regulatory and technological environment may evolve to the point where demand for remote pilots’ services are detrimentally impacted, resulting in a reduction in demand for our aerial-based services.

One of our key customers may bolster its in-house aerial drone capabilities, thereby reducing dependency on our services.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, UAS services provided to Florida Power & Light (FPL) represented approximately 22.9% and 49.0%, respectively, of our overall revenue. Our contract with FPL allows them to call upon us to provide UAS services under defined criteria at a defined price. While FPL maintains their own UAS fleet, it is currently not large enough to cover their entire Florida service area, particularly in times of natural disasters. Therefore, they call upon Airborne Response to provide services from time to time. However, should FPL decide to expand their in-house UAS fleets and flight teams, they would have a diminished need for our services, thereby reducing our revenue.

Some of our products may be subject to government regulations pertaining to exportation, which may limit the markets in which we can sell some of our products.

International sales of certain of our products, including our ballistic protection equipment and AI products, may be subject to U.S. laws, regulations and policies like the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”) and other export laws and regulations and may be subject to first obtaining licenses, clearances or authorizations from various regulatory entities. If we are not allowed to export our products or the clearance process is burdensome, our ability to generate revenue would be adversely affected. The failure to comply with any of these regulations could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business and generate revenues, as well as increase our operating costs. Members of management are registered with the Defense Trade Controls Compliance (“DTCC”) program with the United States Department of State and maintain relations with additional subject matter experts on the topic of ITAR and international export controls. Currently, our sales do not require us to be registered with the DTCC, but sales of future products may require such registration. If in the future we are required to have personnel registered with the DTCC for new business opportunities, and if we lose such personnel, we will be unable to pursue such new business.

Economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide could adversely affect our revenues.

Our revenues and operating results depend on the overall demand for our products and services. If the U.S. and worldwide economies weaken, either alone or in tandem with other factors beyond our control (including war, political unrest, pandemic, shifts in market demand for our services, actions by competitors or other causes), we may not be able to maintain or expand the growth of our revenue.

Sales to customers outside the United States or with international operations expose us to risks inherent in international sales.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 17.0% and 19.3%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from sales outside of the United States. While our near-term focus is on the North American market, a key element of our growth strategy is to expand our worldwide customer base and our international operations, initially through agreements with third-party resellers, distributors and other parties that can market and sell our products in foreign jurisdictions. Supporting our distributors operating in international markets may require significant resources and management attention and may subject us to regulatory, economic and political risks that are different from those in the United States. While our Safe-Pro USA subsidiary has operating experience in some international markets, we cannot assure you that our expansion efforts into other international markets will be successful. Our experience in the United States and other international markets in which we already have a presence may not be relevant to our ability to expand in other international markets. Our international expansion efforts may not be successful in creating further demand for our products outside of the United States or in effectively selling our products in the international markets we enter. In addition, we face risks in doing business internationally that could adversely affect our business, including:

the need and expense to localize and adapt our products for specific countries, including translation into foreign languages, and ensuring that our products enable our customers to comply with local telecommunications industry laws and regulations, some of which are frequently changing;
data privacy laws which require that customer data be stored and processed in a designated territory;
difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations, including employee laws and regulations;
different pricing environments, longer sales cycles and longer accounts receivable payment cycles, and collections issues;
new and different sources of competition;
weaker protection for intellectual property and other legal rights than in the United States and practical difficulties in enforcing intellectual property and other rights outside of the United States;
laws and business practices favoring local competitors;
compliance challenges related to the complexity of multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations, including employment, tax, privacy and data protection, and anti-bribery laws and regulations;
increased financial accounting and reporting burdens and complexities;
restrictions on the transfer of funds;
our ability to repatriate funds from abroad without adverse tax consequences;
adverse tax consequences, including the potential for required withholding taxes;
fluctuations in the exchange rates of foreign currency in which our foreign revenues or expenses may be denominated;
changes in trade relations and trade policy, including the status of trade relations between the United States and China, and the implementation of or changes to trade sanctions, tariffs, and embargoes;
public health crises, such as epidemics and pandemics, including COVID-19; and
unstable regional and economic political conditions in the markets in which we operate.

Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Some of our customers also have international operations and are subject to the risks described above. Even if we are able to successfully manage the risks of international operations, our business may be adversely affected if our customers are not able to successfully manage these risks, which could adversely affect our business.

Geopolitical and macroeconomic events and conditions could adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows.

Our business is sensitive to geopolitical and security issues, including foreign policy actions taken by governments such as tariffs, sanctions, embargoes, export and import controls and other trade restrictions, which can affect the demand for our products and services, the ability to sell our products and services, and disrupt our supply chain, all of which could adversely affect our business.

Global conflicts, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, have significantly elevated global geopolitical tensions and security concerns. In addition, the U.S. Government and other nations have implemented broad economic sanctions and export controls targeting Russia, which, combined with the Ukraine conflict, has indirectly disrupted the global supply chain and increased pressures on certain resources. The Ukraine conflict also has increased the threat of malicious cyber activity from nation states and other actors.

Heightened levels of inflation and the potential worsening of macro-economic conditions, including slower growth or recession, changes to fiscal and monetary policy, tighter credit, higher interest rates and currency fluctuations, present a risk for us, our suppliers and the stability of the broader defense industrial base. If we are unable to successfully mitigate the impact of inflation, our profits, margins and cash flows, particularly for existing fixed-price contracts, may be adversely affected. Although we believe defense spending is more resilient to adverse macro-economic conditions than many other industrial sectors, our suppliers and other partners, many of which are more exposed to commercial markets or have fewer resources, may be adversely impacted to a more significant degree than we are by an economic downturn, which could affect their performance and adversely impact on our operations. In addition, macroeconomic conditions could cause budgetary pressures for our government customers resulting in reductions or delays in spending, which could adversely impact our business.

We intend to pursue strategic transactions in the future, which could be difficult to implement, disrupt our business or change our business profile significantly.

We intend to continue to pursue potential strategic transactions, which could involve acquisitions of businesses or assets, joint ventures or investments in businesses, products or technologies that expand, complement or otherwise relate to our current or future business. We also intend to consider, from time to time, opportunities to engage in joint ventures or other business collaborations with third parties to address particular market segments. However, we may be unable to find suitable acquisition candidates or other suitable partners or products or may be unable to complete acquisitions or strategic transactions on favorable terms, if at all. For example, while the historical financial and operating performance or an acquisition or joint venture partner are among the criteria we evaluate in determining which acquisition or joint venture targets to pursue, there can be no assurance that any business or assets we acquire or contract with will continue to perform in accordance with past practices or will achieve financial or operating results that are consistent with or exceed past results. Any such failure could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

In addition, any completed acquisition or other transaction may not result in the intended benefits for other reasons and any completed acquisition or other transaction will create or involve a number of other risks such as, among others:

the need to integrate and manage the businesses and products acquired with our own business and products;
additional demands on our resources, systems, procedures and controls;
disruption of our ongoing business; and
diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns.

Moreover, these transactions could involve:

substantial investment of funds or financings by issuance of debt or equity securities that could result in dilution to our stockholders, impacting our ability to service our debt within scheduled repayment terms or include covenants or other restrictions that would impede our ability to manage our operations;
substantial investment with respect to technology transfers and operational integration; and,
the acquisition or disposition of product lines or businesses.

Also, such activities could result in one-time charges and expenses and have the potential to either dilute the interests of existing stockholders or result in the issuance of or assumption of debt.

Such acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or other business collaborations may involve significant commitments of financial and other resources of our company. Any such activity may not be successful in generating revenue, income or other returns to us, and the resources committed to such activities will not be available to us for other purposes. Moreover, if we are unable to access capital markets on acceptable terms or at all, we may not be able to consummate acquisitions or may have to do so on the basis of a less than optimal capital structure. Our inability to (i) take advantage of growth opportunities for our business or for our products or (ii) address risks associated with acquisitions or investments in businesses may negatively affect our operating results. Additionally, any impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets acquired in an acquisition or in an investment or charges to earnings associated with any acquisition or investment activity may materially reduce our earnings. These future acquisitions or joint ventures may not result in their anticipated benefits, and we may not be able to properly integrate acquired products, technologies or businesses with our existing products and operations or combine personnel and cultures. Failure to do so could deprive us of the intended benefits of those acquisitions.

If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, we could lose our ability to compete in the marketplace.

Our intellectual property and proprietary rights are important to our ability to remain competitive and for the success of our products and our business. Patent protection can be limited, and not all intellectual property is or can be patented. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws as well as confidentiality agreements and procedures, non-competition agreements and other contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property, other proprietary rights and our brand. We have little protection when we must rely on trade secrets and nondisclosure agreements. Our intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by third parties. We may not be able to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of our technical knowledge or other trade secrets by employees or competitors. Furthermore, our competitors may independently develop technologies and products that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies and/or products, which could result in decreased revenues for us. Moreover, the laws of foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs to us and substantial diversion of management’s attention. If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property, our competitors could use it to enhance their products. Our inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business and financial condition and the value of our brand and other intangible assets.

If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would be negatively affected.

Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our intellectual property and technologies. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual property rights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. We have filed an international patent application, and many companies have had difficulty protecting their proprietary rights in foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.

The patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting our technologies by obtaining and enforcing patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following:

there can be no guarantee that any patents will issue from pending patent applications or future patent applications, if any, and there can be no guarantee that any issued patents will adequately protect our intellectual property, as the legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of patent and other intellectual property rights are complex and often uncertain and are subject to change that can affect validity of patents issued under previous legal standards, particularly with respect to the law of subject matter eligibility;
patents that may be issued or licensed may be challenged, invalidated, declared unenforceable, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage;
our competitors, many of which have substantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or may already have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and license our technologies either in the United States or in international markets;
there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other international governmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for technologies that prove successful as a matter of public policy regarding security concerns;
countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws than those upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competing products.

Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent, or narrow our patents. Third parties may also independently develop technologies similar to ours or design around any patents on our technologies.

In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often required that patent applications concerning software inventions be limited or narrowed substantially and often reject or restrict patent applications that are found to be directed to merely abstract ideas, thereby potentially limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus, even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.

Our success depends on our pending patent applications, patents that may be licensed exclusively to us, and other patents to which we may obtain assignment or licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications, or published literature that may affect our business by blocking our ability to commercialize our products, preventing the patentability of products or services by us or our licensors, or covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patent applications, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect our ability to market our products and services.

In addition to our pending and issued patent applications, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, and security measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or other proprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitive advantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.

Patent protection and other intellectual property protection are crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is a substantial risk that such protection will prove inadequate.

Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property, which could materially increase our costs and harm our ability to generate future revenue and profit.

We do not believe our product technologies infringe the proprietary rights of any third party, but claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common, and third parties may assert infringement claims against us. It may be difficult or impossible to identify, prior to receipt of notice from a third party, the trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights of a third party, either in the United States or in foreign jurisdictions. Any such assertion may result in litigation or may require us to obtain a license for or otherwise restrict our use of the intellectual property rights of third parties. If we are required to obtain licenses to use any third-party technology, we would have to pay royalties, which may significantly reduce any profit on our products. In addition, any such litigation could be expensive and disruptive to our ability to generate revenue or enter into new market opportunities. If any of our products are found to infringe other parties’ proprietary rights and we are unable to come to terms regarding a license with such parties, we may be forced to modify our products to make them non-infringing or to cease production of such products altogether.

Security breaches, including cybersecurity incidents and other disruptions could compromise our information, expose us to liability and harm our reputation and business.

In the ordinary course of our business we collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, personal information, our proprietary business information and that of our customers, suppliers and business partners, and personally identifiable information of our customers and employees in our data centers and on our networks. The secure maintenance and transmission of this information is critical to our operations and business strategy. We rely on commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring to provide security for processing, transmission, and storage of confidential information. Computer hackers may attempt to penetrate our computer systems and, if successful, misappropriate personal or confidential business information. In addition, an associate, contractor, or other third-party with whom we do business may attempt to circumvent our security measures in order to obtain such information and may purposefully or inadvertently cause a breach involving such information. Despite the security measures we have in place and any additional measures we may implement in the future to safeguard our systems and to mitigate potential security risks, our facilities and systems, and those of our third-party service providers, could be vulnerable to security breaches. Any such compromise of our data security and access, public disclosure, or loss of personal or confidential business information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, regulatory penalties, disruption of our operations, damage to our reputation, loss of our customers’ willingness to transact business with us, and subject us to additional costs and liabilities which could materially adversely affect our business.

We do not carry insurance against all potential risks and losses, and our insurance might be inadequate to cover all of our losses or liabilities or may not be available on commercially reasonable terms.

We have limited, and potentially insufficient, insurance coverage for expenses and losses that may arise in connection with the quality of our products, property damage, work-related accidents and occupational illnesses, natural disasters, and environmental contamination. In addition, we have no insurance coverage for loss of profits or other losses caused by the death or incapacitation of our senior management. As a result, losses or liabilities arising from these or other such events could increase our costs and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We intend to reevaluate the purchase of insurance, policy limits and terms annually or when circumstances warrant from time to time. Future insurance coverage for our industry could increase in cost and may include higher deductibles or retentions than we could obtain now. In addition, some forms of insurance may become unavailable in the future or unavailable on terms that we believe are economically acceptable. No assurance can be given that we will be able to maintain insurance in the future at rates that we consider reasonable, and we may elect to continue to maintain minimal or no insurance coverage. We may not be able to secure additional insurance or bonding that might be required by new governmental regulations. This may cause us to restrict our operations in certain jurisdictions, which might severely impact on our financial position. The occurrence of a significant event, not fully insured against, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The nature of our business involves significant risks and uncertainties that may not be covered by insurance or indemnity.

We develop and sell products where insurance or indemnification may not be available, including:

designing and developing products using advanced and unproven technologies and drones in intelligence and homeland security applications that are intended to operate in high demand, high risk situations; and,
designing and developing products to collect, distribute and analyze various types of information.

Failure of certain of our products could result in loss of life or property damage. Certain products may raise questions with respect to issues of civil liberties, intellectual property, trespass, conversion, and similar concepts, which may raise new legal issues. Indemnification to cover potential claims or liabilities resulting from a failure of technologies developed or deployed may be available in certain circumstances, but not in others. We are not able to maintain insurance to protect against all operational risks and uncertainties. Substantial claims resulting from an accident, failure of our product, or liability arising from our products in excess of any indemnity or insurance coverage (or for which indemnity or insurance is not available or was not obtained) could harm our financial condition, cash flows, and operating results. Any accident, even if fully covered or insured, could negatively affect our reputation among our customers and the public, and make it more difficult for us to compete effectively.

AI and ML technologies and services are highly competitive, rapidly evolving, and require significant investment, including development and operational costs. Other companies may develop AI and/or ML products and technologies similar or superior to our technologies, or more cost-effective to deploy. Other companies may also have or obtain patents or other proprietary rights that would prevent or interfere with our ability to make, use, or sell our own AI and ML products and services. In addition, governments have passed laws and are likely to pass additional laws regulating AI and ML software technologies and associated intellectual property. Laws and regulations focused on the development, use, protection, and provision of AI and ML technologies and other digital products and services could result in regulatory actions or compliance costs.

If a successful product liability claim was made against us, our business could be seriously harmed.

Our agreements with our customers typically, although not always, contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to potential product liability claims. Despite this, it is possible that these limitations of liability provisions may not be effective as a result of existing or future laws or unfavorable judicial decisions. We have not experienced a material product liability claim to date; however, the sales and support of our products may entail the risk of those claims, which are likely to be substantial in light of the use of our products in critical applications. A successful product liability claim could result in significant monetary liability for us and could seriously harm our business.

If we are unable to recruit and retain key management, technical and sales personnel, our business will be negatively affected.

For our business to be successful, we need to attract and retain highly qualified technical, management and sales personnel. The failure to recruit additional key personnel when needed with specific qualifications and on acceptable terms or to retain good relationships with our partners might impede our ability to continue to develop, commercialize and sell our products. To the extent the demand for skilled personnel exceeds supply, we could experience higher labor, recruiting and training costs in order to attract and retain such employees. The loss of any members of our management team may also delay or impair the achievement of our business objectives and result in business disruptions due to the time needed for their replacements to be recruited and become familiar with our business. We face competition for qualified personnel from other companies with significantly more resources available to them and thus may not be able to attract the level of personnel needed for our business to succeed.

If we are required to reclassify independent contractors as employees, we may incur additional costs and taxes which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We engage a significant number of independent contractors in our operations, particularly in our research and development efforts, for whom we do not pay or withhold any federal, state or provincial employment tax. There are a number of different tests used in determining whether an individual is an employee, or an independent contractor and such tests generally take into account multiple factors. There can be no assurance that legislative, judicial, or regulatory (including tax) authorities will not introduce proposals or assert interpretations of existing rules and regulations that would change, or at least challenge, the classification of our independent contractors. Although we believe we have properly classified our independent contractors, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or other U.S. federal or state authorities or similar authorities of a foreign government may determine that we have misclassified our independent contractors for employment tax or other purposes and, as a result, seek additional taxes from us or attempt to impose fines and penalties. If we are required to pay employer taxes or pay federal withholding with respect to prior periods with respect to or on behalf of our independent contractors, our operating costs will increase, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting may, until remedied, cause errors in our financial statements or cause our filings with the SEC to not be timely.

At the end of the period December 31, 2025, our certifying officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We believe our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a lack of; segregation of duties within accounting functions and formalized accounting procedures. Should we not remedy our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures, there may be errors in our financial statements that could require a restatement, or our filings may not be timely made with the SEC. We continue to implement additional policies and procedures to remedy our effectiveness and continue to upgrade our accounting software, as well as, seeking additional staff. We have engaged third parties to assist in the documentation of our corporate policies and to further address our personnel needs. We expect to have remedied the effectiveness of our controls and procedures during the second quarter of 2026. Moreover, no control environment, no matter how well designed and operated, can prevent or detect all errors or fraud. We may identify material weaknesses and control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting in the future that may require remediation and could lead investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.

Risks Relating to our Common Stock

A sustained, active trading market for our common stock may not be maintained, which may limit investors’ ability to sell shares at all or at an acceptable price.

As we are in our early stage of development, an investment in our Company will likely require a long-term commitment, with no certainty of return. We cannot predict whether an active market for our shares of common stock will ever develop or be sustained in the future. In the absence of an active trading market:

investors may have difficulty buying and selling or obtaining market quotations;
market visibility for our common stock may be limited; and,
a lack of visibility for our common stock may have a depressive effect on the market price for our common stock.

The lack of an active market impairs your ability to sell your shares of common stock at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of your shares of common stock. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling shares of common stock and may impair our ability to acquire additional assets by using our shares of common stock as consideration.

Our stock price may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors and litigation.

In addition to changes to market prices based on our results of operations and the factors discussed elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, the market price of and trading volume for our common stock may change for a variety of other reasons, not necessarily related to our actual operating performance. The capital markets have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. In addition, the average daily trading volume of the securities of small companies can be very low, which may contribute to future volatility. Factors that could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly include:

the results of operating and financial performance and prospects of other companies in our industry;
strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;
announcements of innovations, increased service capabilities, new or terminated customers or new, amended or terminated contracts by our competitors;
the public’s reaction to our press releases, other public announcements, and filings with the SEC;
lack of securities analyst coverage or speculation in the press or investment community about us or market opportunities in the defense industry;
changes in government policies in the United States and, as our international business increases, in other foreign countries;
changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities or research analysts who track our common stock or failure of our actual results of operations to meet those expectations;
market and industry perception of our success, or lack thereof, in pursuing our growth strategy;
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;
any lawsuit involving us, our services or our products;
arrival and departure of key personnel;
sales of common stock by us, our investors or members of our management team; and,
changes in general market, economic and political conditions in the United States and global economies or financial markets, including those resulting from natural or man-made disasters.

Any of these factors, as well as broader market and industry factors, may result in large and sudden changes in the trading volume of our common stock and could seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. This may prevent you from being able to sell your shares at or above the price you paid for your shares of our common stock, if at all. In addition, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, stockholders often institute securities class action litigation against that company. Our involvement in any class action suit or other legal proceedings could divert our senior management’s attention and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be dependent upon our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, applicable contractual restrictions and other such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant.

There is an increased potential risk for new public companies similar to ours of rapid and substantial price volatility which may add to the risk of investing in our company.

There have been recent instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and stock price volatility seemingly unrelated to company performance following a number of recent initial public offerings, particularly among companies with relatively smaller public floats. Additionally, our common stock may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility, including any stock-run up, which may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our shares of common stock. As a result, you may suffer a loss on your investment.

We may need to raise additional capital in the future. Additional capital may not be available to us on reasonable terms, if at all, when or as we require. If we issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that may be convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, our common stock, our existing stockholders will experience further dilution and could trigger anti-dilution provisions in outstanding warrants.

We may need to raise additional capital in the future. Future financing may involve the issuance of debt, equity and/or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our equity securities. These financings may not be available to us on reasonable terms or at all when and as we require funding. If we are able to consummate such financings, the trading price of our common stock could be adversely affected and/or the terms of such financings may adversely affect the interests of our existing stockholders. Any failure to obtain additional working capital when required would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition and may result in a decline in our stock price. Any issuances of our common stock, preferred stock, or securities such as warrants or notes that are convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for, our capital stock, would have a dilutive effect on the voting and economic interest of our existing stockholders.

Our officers and directors are entitled to indemnification from us for liabilities under our certificate of incorporation, which could be costly to us and may discourage the exercise of stockholder rights.

Our certificate of incorporation provide that we possess and may exercise all powers of indemnification of our officers, directors, employees, agents and other persons and our bylaws also require us to indemnify our officers and directors as permitted under the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). We also have contractual indemnification obligations under our agreements with our directors and officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors, officers, and employees for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our stockholders against our directors, officers, and employees even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and stockholders. During 2025, the Company obtained D&O liability insurance with a term of one year, which was renewed until August of 2026.

Our bylaws and Delaware law may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our management, which could have the result of depressing the trading price of our common stock.

Certain anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring us, even if the acquisition arguably could benefit our stockholders.

Section 203 of the DGCL is a company anti-takeover statute. Section 203 prohibits a stockholder from engaging in a business combination with a company for three years after the stockholder acquires 15% or more of the company’s voting equity. If a company’s board pre-approves such a business combination, however, the Section 203 anti-takeover protections do not apply.

Various provisions of our bylaws may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt of us that a stockholder might consider in his or her best interest. Our bylaws may be adopted, amended or repealed by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of our outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote for the election of directors, and except as provided by Delaware law, our board of directors shall have the power to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws by a vote of not less than a majority of our directors. The interests of these stockholders and directors may not be consistent with your interests, and they may make changes to the bylaws that are not in line with your concerns.

These provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace members of our board of directors, which is responsible for appointing the members of our management.

If equity research analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade our common stock, the market price of our common stock will likely decline.

The trading market for our common stock will rely in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts, over whom we have no control, publish about us and our business. We may never obtain research coverage by securities and industry analysts. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of our company, the market price for our common stock could decline. In the event we obtain securities or industry analyst coverage, the market price of our common stock could decline if one or more equity analysts downgrade our common stock or if those analysts issue unfavorable commentary, even if it is inaccurate, or cease publishing reports about us or our business.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provides that the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forums for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provides that the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for the following types of actions or proceedings:

any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf;
any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to us or to our stockholders;
an action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL; or
any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusive forum provisions will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. or any claim for which the federal courts have exclusive or concurrent jurisdiction.

While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such an action in other jurisdictions and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions.

These exclusive forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees. If a court were to find either exclusive forum provision in our certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur further significant additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, all of which could harm our business.

Our certificate of incorporation allows our board of directors to create a new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of our preferred stock. Currently our board of directors has the authority to designate and issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our “blank check” preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq could result in de-listing of our common stock.

If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq, such as the corporate governance requirements or the minimum closing bid price requirement, the Nasdaq may take steps to de-list our common stock. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a de-listing, we would take actions to try to restore our compliance with the Nasdaq marketplace rules, but our common stock may not be listed again, and such actions may not stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with the Nasdaq marketplace rules.

If we are a “controlled company” under the rules of Nasdaq, we may choose to exempt our company from certain corporate governance requirements that could have an adverse effect on our public stockholders.

Under Nasdaq’s rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including, without limitation, (i) the requirement that a majority of the Board of Directors consist of independent directors, (ii) the requirement that the compensation of our officers be determined or recommended to our Board of Directors by a compensation committee that is comprised solely of independent directors, and (iii) the requirement that director nominees be selected or recommended to the Board of Directors by a majority of independent directors or a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors.

As an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements.

As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. We are an emerging growth company until the earliest of:

the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more;
the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our IPO;
the date on which we have, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; or
the date on which we are deemed a “large accelerated filer” as defined under the federal securities laws.

For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

have an auditor report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis);
submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholders advisory votes pursuant to the “say on frequency” and “say on pay” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve compensation of certain executive officers) and the “say on golden parachute” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve golden parachute arrangements for certain executive officers in connection with mergers and certain other business combinations) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010;
include detailed compensation discussion and analysis in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and instead may provide a reduced level of disclosure concerning executive compensation;
may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and,
are eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act.

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions.

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions were already available to us due to the fact that we also qualify as a “smaller reporting company” under SEC rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation and report regarding management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

We cannot predict if investors will find our securities less attractive due to our reliance on these exemptions. If investors were to find our common stock less attractive as a result of our election, we may have difficulty raising proceeds.

Cybersecurity

As filed, 3,328 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

There have been an increasing number of cyberattacks on companies around the world, which have caused operational failures, compromised sensitive corporate or customer data, and/or resulted in significant financial damages. These attacks have occurred over the internet, through malware, viruses or attachments to e-mails, or through inside actors with access to systems within an organization.

Risk Management and Strategy

We utilize third party applications and resources to support our information technology (“IT”) needs. All of the applications we use are Software as a Service (“SaaS”) offerings. As our applications are developed and managed by third parties, we are dependent on these providers for many functions including disaster recovery during a disaster or cyber incident. Our goal is to utilize the most secure and trusted providers for our IT needs. Our business continuity plans are evaluated against evolving security and service level standards, which includes evaluating those cybersecurity threats associated with our use of key third party service providers.

Our cybersecurity management strategy consists of utilizing a combination of preventative controls and detective controls. For instance, suspicious emails are quarantined by our email service provider and must be reviewed before they are downloaded to an individual computer. Our process and cybersecurity posture will continue to be refined.

To operate our business, we rely upon certain third-party service providers to perform a variety of functions, such as outsourced professional services, SaaS platforms, managed services, cloud-based infrastructure, corporate productivity services, and other functions.

To date, there have been no risks identified from cybersecurity threats or previous cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company. However, despite all of the above aforementioned efforts, a cyberattack, if it occurred, could cause system operational problems, disrupt service to clinical trial sites, compromise important data or systems or result in an unintended release of confidential information. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for additional discussion of cybersecurity risks impacting our Company.

Governance

The Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of cybersecurity risk. Our Chief Executive Officer is the member of management responsible for managing and assessing our cybersecurity practices. Our Chief Executive Officer has over 25 years’ experience as a C-Level technology executive for private and public companies. The plan for the future is that our Chief Executive Officer will report to the Audit Committee on cybersecurity on a quarterly basis. Should any cybersecurity threat or incident be detected, our senior management team would timely report such threat or incident to the Audit Committee and provide regular communications and updates throughout the incident and any subsequent investigation, so that the impact, materiality, and reporting requirements of such incident are appropriately identified and assessed for further necessary or appropriate action to be taken.

We believe we are appropriately staffed (as supported by our outsourced IT provider) to support a healthy cybersecurity posture given our size and scope.

Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 39,671 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Business Overview

We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on December 15, 2021. Safe Pro Group Inc. is the parent company of Airborne Response Corp. and Safe-Pro USA LLC, which were both incorporated in Florida, in 2016 and 2008, respectively. On March 9, 2023, Safe Pro Group Inc. acquired Demining Development LLC, a privately held developer of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) and Machine Learning (“ML”) software technology for processing of drone-based imagery and data. On August 30, 2023, Demining Development LLC filed an amended and restated Articles of Organization to change its name to Safe Pro AI LLC. On December 23, 2025, we formed SPAI Ventures LLC. Currently, SPAI Ventures is a non-active wholly owned subsidiary, that was established to pursue both strategic collaborations and investments with Ukrainian and other international tech developers. Through SPAI Ventures, Safe Pro Group, will evaluate opportunities in which to invest or to commercialize technologies that it believes could complement the capabilities of its portfolio of AI and ballistic protective solutions. SPAI Ventures has not made any investments or entered into any agreements.

We are a company focused on innovative security and protection solutions, specifically, advanced artificial intelligence / machine learning (AI/ML) software technology for the creation of robust datasets sourced from the analysis of aerial imagery, bullet and blast resistant personal protection equipment and providing mission-critical aerial managed services.

Through a layered approach to the development and integration of advanced technologies in artificial intelligence, drone-based remote sensing technologies and services, and personal protective gear, Safe Pro Group seeks to provide government, NGOs and enterprises with innovative solutions designed to respond to evolving threats.

Currently, the Company’s revenue is primarily generated by its subsidiaries Airborne Response and Safe-Pro USA. We expect to begin realizing revenue from Safe Pro AI for its Safe Pro Object Threat Detection (SPOTD) technology ecosystem - SpotlightAI™, OnSight and SPOTD NODE (Navigation, Observation & Detection Engine)- as a result of multiple completed demonstrations and evaluations in Ukraine, the Philippines and the United States during 2025, as well as planned demonstrations including events hosted by the U.S. Army in early 2026.

Furthermore, the Company expects to generate revenue through a number of strategic relationships formed during August and September of 2025 with select drone industry vendors introduced through its most recent investors such as Ondas Holdings Inc. and Unusual Machines Inc. Further, the Company expects to generate revenue from Safe Pro AI through the delivery of AI-powered edge processing systems under a $1.0 million U.S. Government subcontract entered in February 2026, marking the Company’s first material government program revenue associated with its AI technology portfolio.

Principle of Consolidation

Our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K include our accounts and those of our active operating subsidiaries: Airborne Response Corp., Safe-Pro USA LLC, and Safe Pro AI LLC from their respective dates of acquisition. Not included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, SPAI Ventures LLC, which is currently a non-operating subsidiary of the company.

Segment Information

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 and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. During the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company operated in three active reportable business segments which consisted of (1) the business of Safe-Pro USA, (2) the business of Airborne Response, and (3) the business of Safe Pro AI. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations and locations.

Significant Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenues. Our revenues are generated primarily from the sale of our products and services, which consist primarily of personal protective gear (“PPE”) and ballistic protective equipment including Explosive Ordnance Disposal (“EOD”) and blast and fragmentation resistant vests and body armor, as well as aerial managed services (drones) for the inspection of customer’s critical infrastructure including radio towers and power grids. At contract inception, we assess the goods and services promised in the contract with customers and identify a performance obligation for each. To determine the performance obligation, we consider all products and services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The timing of satisfaction of the performance obligation is not subject to significant judgment. We measure revenue as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods and services. We generally recognize product revenues at the time of shipment, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit. Gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by various factors, including changes in our supply chain and the evolving product mix. The margin profile of our current products and future products will vary depending on operating performance, features, materials, manufacturer and supply chain. Gross margin will vary as a function of changes in pricing due to competitive pressure, our third-party manufacturing, labor costs for services and depreciation for our drone related fixed assets and, our production costs, which includes depreciation related costs for manufacturing equipment, costs of shipping and logistics, provision for excess and obsolete inventory and other factors. We expect our gross margins will fluctuate from period to period depending on the interplay of these various factors.

Operating Expenses. We classify our operating expenses as salary, wages and payroll taxes, research and development, professional fees, selling, general, administrative, non-production and services related depreciation and amortization. Additionally, we separate depreciation and amortization expense into its own category.

Salary, Wages and Payroll Taxes. Salaries are representative of officer and stock-based compensation and administrative personnel costs. The salary and wages associated payroll tax is reflected here as well.

Research and Development expenses consist of costs associated with personnel and contractor fees associated with the design and development of our products, product certification, travel, recruiting and information technology. Development costs incurred prior to establishment of technological feasibility were expensed as incurred. Software development costs related to design enhancement of the product are capitalized. We expect our research and development costs to continue to increase as we develop new products and modify existing products to meet the changes within our markets.

Professional Fees primarily represent certain costs for legal, audit, accounting, public company expense, investor relations, consulting fees and share-based compensation for services.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses consist of expenses associated with our training programs, trade shows, marketing programs, promotional materials, demonstration equipment, national and local regulatory approvals of our products, travel, entertainment, recruiting, operating supplies such as, computer equipment, drones, EOD testing supplies; and facilities and other supporting overhead costs. For the year ending December 31, 2026, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase, as we ramp up our sales and marketing expansion efforts to correspond with our increased production efforts, relating to our personal protective gear, the availability of additional AI-powered image processing solutions and new drone-based services such as Drone as a Responder (DFR).

Depreciation and Amortization expense consists of depreciation related to computer and related office equipment, as well as amortization related to finite-lived intangibles.

Interest Expense is comprised of interest expense associated with our secured notes payable and convertible notes. The amortization of debt discounts is also recorded as part of interest expense.

Provision for Income Taxes. Current and deferred income tax expense or benefit in any given period will depend upon a number of events and circumstances, one of which is the income tax net income or loss from operations for the period which is usually different from the U.S. GAAP net income or loss, for the period due to differences in tax laws and timing differences. Management assesses our deferred tax assets in each reporting period, and if it is determined that it is not more likely than not to be realized, we will record a change in our valuation allowance in that period.

Net Revenue. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, revenues were $606,681 and $2,169,178, a decrease of $1,562,497 or 72.0%. Comparable sales for Airborne Response decreased $1,089,363, or 85.0%, from $1,280,863 to $191,500. Comparable sales for Safe-Pro USA decreased $532,498, or 61.0%, from $873,274 to $340,776. Comparable sales for Safe Pro AI increased $59,364, or 394.7%, from $15,041 to $74,405.

A substantial portion of revenue for Airborne Response, is with one customer, Florida Power & Light, (“FPL”). If there is positive weather patterns, the electrical power grid remains in stable condition requiring less maintenance and repair work, which results in fewer work orders for Airborne Response. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the decrease in revenue for Airborne Response was primarily attributable to the lack of disruptions to the FPL electrical power grid, as a result of positive weather patterns, which included no active hurricanes. Airborne Response is currently in the process of completing a training program for a new revenue stream, providing nested flight services with FPL/NextEra.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, Safe-Pro USA’s decrease in revenue is attributable to the effects of U.S. Tariffs on Chinese products. The Company imports Security Guards’ uniforms from China. As a result of the high tariffs on goods imported from China, our business model is being reevaluated and recalibrated at this time, with the consequence that business is at its lowest level. Safe-Pro USA is in the process of sourcing additional customers along with obtaining government certifications to become a supplier for the U.S. government.

We expect to begin realizing additional revenue from Safe Pro AI for its Safe Pro Object Threat Detection (SPOTD) technology ecosystem - Spotlight AI™, SpotlightAI™ OnSight and SPOTD NODE (Navigation, Observation & Detection Engine)- as a result of multiple completed demonstrations and evaluations in Ukraine, the Philippines and the United States during 2026, as well as planned demonstrations including events hosted by the U.S. Army in early 2026. As the Company begins to bring on SaaS and subscription customers related to its AI offerings, it is expected that revenue growth will have a more predictable trajectory and decrease the volatility from one-time contracts.

Cost of Sales. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the cost of revenues decreased to $404,503 compared to $1,263,032. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, gross profit margins were 33.3% and 41.8% respectively. The decrease in margin was attributable to a shift in product and service mix toward lower gross profit margin products and services.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $14,747,707, an increase of $6,689,560 or 83.0%, from total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 of $8,058,147. Factors resulting in the increase are described more fully below.

Salaries, wages and payroll taxes were $2,712,929 and $2,263,223 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $449,705 or 19.9%. The increases were primarily attributable to additional compensation expense related to employment agreements and incentive bonuses associated with current-year equity issuances, partially offset by a reduction in officer wages incurred pursuant to the terms of employment agreements with the Chief Executive Officer.

Stock based compensation for wages were $2,826,396 and $2,015,178, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $811,218, or 40.3%. The increase was due to certain contingencies in officers’ employment contracts and options granted for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Research and Development expenses were $394,207 and $90,372 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $303,835 or 336.2%. The increase is primarily attributable to expanded development efforts and the engagement of external contractors to support enhancements to the artificial intelligence business.

Professional fees were $1,466,739 and $1,083,091 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $383,648 or 35.4%. The increases for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to 2024, were attributable to additional public company expenses including legal and investor relations fees, and additional director fees, related to the prior year, consisting of four months of fees versus a full year in 2025.

Stock based compensation for services were $4,080,709 and $1,078,806, an increase of $3,001,903 or 278.3%. The increase is primarily attributable to restricted stock awards granted for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to restricted stock awards granted and vested in 2024, and non-cash expenses for share-based professional fees recognized pursuant to contractual agreements.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,131,056 and $1,254,772 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $876,284 or 69.8%. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in D&O insurance premiums, contractor fees and travel fees.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $304,803 and $272,705 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $32,098, or 11.8%. The increase is attributable to amortization related to assets put into service in the prior year.

Impairments of goodwill and other intangibles were $684,867 and $146,001, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2025. There were no such impairments in the year ended December 31, 2024. The impairments resulted from an interim impairment assessment performed during the third quarter of 2025.

We expect our expenses in each of these areas to continue to increase during fiscal 2026 and beyond as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues for our current business. However, we are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the expected increases.

Total Other (Income) Expense. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, total other income (expense) was $222,750 and $(276,460), respectively, resulting in an increase of $499,210 or 180.6%. The increase was primarily driven by higher interest income resulting from increased cash balances associated with the private placements in 2025 and lower interest expense compared to the prior year.

Net Income (Loss). We recorded a net loss of $14,322,779 for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to a net loss of $7,428,461, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase is a result of the factors as described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At December 31, 2025, we had a cash balance of $16,793,088 and working capital of $16,677,602.

Our current assets at December 31, 2025 increased by $15,178,317, or 551.9%, to $17,928,446 from $2,750,129 at December 31, 2024. The increase included an increase in cash of $14,822,369, inventory of $272,963, and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $106,643. These are partially offset by decreases in accounts receivable of $23,658. The increase in cash is primarily a result of the proceeds from the private placements and warrant exercises in 2025.

Our current liabilities at December 31, 2025 increased to $1,250,844 from $893,926 or an increase of $356,918, or 39.9% from December 31, 2024. The increase is comprised of increases in accounts payable of $341,494, accrued expenses of $180,668, due to related parties of $15,739, partially offset by decreases in current portion of lease liabilities of $7,955, accrued compensation of $108,157 and contract liabilities of $64,871. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased primarily due to higher year-end obligations related to contractor fees, professional fees including those related to the treasury stock repurchases, and insurance accruals.

Operating Activities

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $6,216,366 and were primarily attributable to our net loss of $14,322,779 offset by depreciation and amortization expense of $381,330, impairment of goodwill of $684,867, impairment of other intangibles of $146,001, and stock-based compensation and professional fees of $6,907,105. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were reflected by increases in accounts receivable of $23,658, accounts payable of $278,869, accrued expenses of $180,668 and lease liability of $11; offset by decreases in, accrued compensation of $51,619, inventory of $272,963, prepaid and other current assets of $106,643, and contract liabilities of $64,871.

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 amounted to $4,095,434 and were primarily attributable to our net loss of $7,428,461 and lease costs of $9,144, offset by depreciation and amortization expense of $341,083, stock-based compensation and professional fees of $2,852,648, the relative fair value of options granted of $241,336, and amortization of debt discount of $208,006. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were reflected by increases in accounts receivable of $39,643, inventory of $17,098, and accrued expenses of $7,134; offset by decreases in prepaid and other current assets of $265,611, accounts payable of $49,269, accrued compensation of $48,995, and contract liabilities of $902.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $241,353 and $436,389 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we purchased property and equipment for $48,808 and made investments in intangible technologies of $192,545. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we purchased property and equipment for $63,801 and made investments in intangible technologies of $372,588.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $21,280,088 and $5,799,174 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we had proceeds from the sale of our common stock in private placement offerings of $12,945,000, proceeds from the sales of common stock and warrants in private placement offerings of $6,767,500, proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $1,511,570, proceeds from sale of Preferred Series C shares and warrants of $1,050,000, proceeds from exercise of options of $12,750, and proceeds from related party advances of $141,866 and partially offset by payments for employee tax withholdings on net share settlement of $465,601, related party repayments of $69,588, and purchases of treasury stock in connection with our Stock Repurchase Program of $613,409.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we had proceeds from the sale of our common stock offering of $4,179,500, proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $878,708, proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrants of $489,002, proceeds from the sale of convertible notes payable of $275,002, proceeds from the sale of notes payable of $236,500, offset by repayments of notes payable of $236,500, and repayment of due to related party of $23,038.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740*): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*. This ASU requires disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The amendment also includes other changes to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures, including further disaggregation of income taxes paid for individually significant jurisdictions. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on December 31, 2025. The adoption of the standard did not result in any significant disclosure changes in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“*ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and application may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the potential effect that ASU 2024-03 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments,” which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion or extinguishment of convertible debt. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following is not intended to be a comprehensive list of our accounting policies or estimates. Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes. In preparing our financial statements and accounting for the underlying transactions and balances, we apply our accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in the Notes. We consider the policies and estimates discussed below as critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on our judgment, with financial reporting results dependent on estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Specific risks for these critical accounting estimates are described in the following paragraphs. Preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Besides estimates that meet the “critical” accounting estimate criteria, we make many other accounting estimates in preparing our financial statements and related disclosures. All estimates, whether or not deemed critical, affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on experience and other information available prior to the issuance of the financial statements. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known, including for estimates that we do not deem “critical.”

Accounts receivable and other receivables

The Company adopted ASC 326 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” on January 1, 2023. The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable and other receivables in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries under the current expected credit loss method. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts or other accounts considered at risk or uncollectible. The bad debt expense associated with the allowance for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable and other receivables is recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Revenue recognition

In accordance with ASU Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company offers a warranty on its manufactured products. The Company considered the need to make an accrual for warranty expenses that may be incurred. Historically, the Company has incurred no warranty expense and accordingly, the Company believes that no warranty expense accrual is deemed necessary.

Safe-Pro USA

Safe-Pro USA recognizes revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Performance obligations are determined through a review of customer contracts and may differ between customers depending upon contract terms. Revenue from product sales is recognized when the related goods are shipped whereas revenue from training and inspection activities is recognized when the services are completed, and payment is probable. Discounts in multiple elements sold as a single arrangement are allocated proportionately to the individual elements based on the fair value charged when the element is sold separately.

Airborne Response

Airborne Response recognizes revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Performance obligations are determined through a review of customer contracts and may differ between customers depending upon contract terms. Revenues from services are recognized at a point in time when Airborne Response completes services pursuant to its agreements with clients and collectability is probable.

Safe Pro AI

Safe Pro AI will primarily sell subscriptions and licenses to its customers for the use of its software under a software-as-a-service subscription model (“SaaS”), which will allow for the rapid, automated processing of aerial and ground-based imagery uploaded by customers, making it an ideal solution for a number of applications including defense, demining, in law enforcement and border security. In the case of NODE, the combined solution includes specialized, commercially available hardware integrated with Safe Pro AI’s proprietary software. Safe Pro AI’s, SaaS offerings are sold under a license or prepaid or postpaid, usage-based pricing system pursuant to a tiers model, allowing customers to choose the subscription level to be charged based upon their intended usage. The subscription tiers will utilize declining prices as the volume grows. Under this model, customers are charged an upfront fee based upon the number of gigapixels of aerial images uploaded into the system for processing. For customer convenience, Safe Pro AI will initially charge data processing fees on a per hectare basis (1 hectare = 1,000 square meters). Under prepaid pay-as-you-go plans, revenues related to contracts that do not include a specified contract period are recognized upon usage by the customer and satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation. These usage-based revenues are constrained to the amount the Company expects to be entitled to and receive in exchange for providing access to its platform. If professional services are deemed to be distinct, revenue is recognized as services are performed. The Company does not view the signing of the contract or the provision of initial setup services as discrete earnings events that are distinct.

Goodwill and intangible assets

The Company’s business acquisitions typically result in the recording of goodwill and other intangible assets, which affect the amount of amortization expense and possibly impairment write-downs that the Company may incur in future periods.

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization for finite-lived assets, computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life, less any impairment charges.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in business acquisitions. Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is subject to impairment tests at least annually. The Company reviews the carrying amounts of goodwill by reporting unit at least annually, or when indicators of impairment are present, to determine if goodwill may be impaired. To test goodwill impairment, the Company may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. The Company would not be required to quantitatively determine the fair value of goodwill unless it determines, based on the qualitative assessment there are indicators of impairment. Under the quantitative test of goodwill, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, then the goodwill is impaired by the excess amount. The Company performs its annual testing for goodwill during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit.

Intangibles assets, net consists of contractual employment agreements, customer relationships and acquired capitalized internal-use software. All intangible assets determined to have finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The useful life of an intangible asset is the period over which the asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows. The Company periodically evaluates both finite and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment upon occurrence of events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets, including intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation –Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under the FASB’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment.

Business acquisitions

The Company accounts for business acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting where the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are recognized based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Determining the fair value of certain acquired assets and liabilities is subjective in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the selection of appropriate valuation methodology, projected revenue, expenses, and cash flows, weighted average cost of capital, discount rates, and estimates of terminal values. Business acquisitions are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the date of the acquisition.

Asset Acquisitions

The Company evaluates acquisitions pursuant to ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” to determine whether the acquisition should be classified as either an asset acquisition or a business combination. Acquisitions for which substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets are accounted for as an asset acquisition. For acquisition of an asset or a group of assets that does not constitute a business, the Company applies ASC 805-50 which provides guidance on acquisitions of assets rather than a business. Acquisitions of assets are accounted for using the cost accumulation and allocation model. For asset acquisitions, the Company allocates the purchase price of these acquired assets on a relative fair value basis and capitalizes direct acquisition related costs as part of the purchase price. Acquisition costs that do not meet the criteria to be capitalized are expensed as incurred and presented in general and administrative costs in the consolidated statements of operations, if any.

Controls and procedures

As filed, 6,290 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer, and Chief Financial Officer, who is our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting discussed below.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is 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) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our board of directors, 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 generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). 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 annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, management identified a material weaknesses related to lack of; segregation of duties and complete set of formalized accounting procedures. Specifically, due to limited resources and headcount, we did not have multiple people in the accounting function for a full segregation of duties, resulting in reliance on outside consultants for external reporting. Due to the relatively small initial size of the Company, we do not have a complete set of procedures and controls for operations to adhere to. We are implementing additional policies and procedures to remedy our effectiveness and have continued to actively upgrade our accounting software, seeking additional staff and incorporating a general set of policies and controls. We have engaged third parties to assist in the documentation of our corporate policies and to further address our personnel needs. We expect to have remedied the effectiveness of our controls and procedures during the second quarter of 2026. These material weaknesses creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Based on this assessment, management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013).

Plan for Remediation of Material Weakness

We are in the process of; (i) engaging a third party to conduct a full assessment of our controls and procedures and (ii) adding an accounting professional to facilitate segregation of duties.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as disclosed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
