Company Overview

We are a Nevada corporation with our principal place of business in Orlando, Florida. We sell and manufacture drones and drone components across a diversified brand portfolio, which includes Fat Shark, the leader in FPV (first-person view) ultra-low latency video goggles for drone pilots. We also retail small, acrobatic FPV drones and equipment directly to consumers through the curated Rotor Riot e-commerce store. Beginning in the second half of 2024, we launched our business-to-business (“B2B”) channel selling drone parts to commercial customers. With a changing regulatory environment, we seek to be a dominant Tier-1 parts supplier to the fast-growing multi-billion-dollar U.S. drone industry. The Company recently opened a drone motor manufacturing facility in Orlando, Florida, is expecting to open a fulfillment facility in Orlando, Florida in December 2025, and expects to open a drone manufacturing facility in the coming months in Orlando, Florida.

Recent Developments, Challenges and Uncertainties

At the Market Agreement

On August 28, 2025, we entered into a Capital on Demand Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement”) with Jones Trading Institutional Services LLC ("Jones”), pursuant to which we may issue and sell over time and from time to time up to $300,000,000 worth of shares of our common stock (the "Shares”). Sales of the Shares, if any, may be made by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act”), including without limitation sales made directly on or through the NYSE American, the trading market for the Company’s common stock, or any other existing trading market in the United States for the Company’s common stock, sales made to or through a dealer other than on an exchange or otherwise, sales made directly to Jones as principal in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or in any other method permitted by law. Jones will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell on behalf of us all the Shares requested to be sold by us, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, subject to the terms of the Sales Agreement.

Under the Agreement, Jones will be entitled to compensation of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sales of the Shares sold under the Sales Agreement. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse Jones for the fees and disbursements of its counsel, in an amount not to exceed $55,000. In addition, we shall reimburse Jones for legal fees of its counsel up to $3,750 for each quarterly due diligence update. The Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement filed with the SEC.

During the month of October 2025, we sold 4,666,600 shares of common stock at an average price of $15.46 per share under the Agreement for total gross proceeds of approximately $72.1 million. We paid Jones approximately $2.2 million related to the sales of common stock under the Sales Agreement.

On July 14, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors for the purchase and sale of 5,000,000 shares of common stock in a registered direct offering at a public offering price of $9.70 per share. On July 15, 2025, the offering closed and we received aggregate gross proceeds of $48.5 million before deducting placement agent fees and other related expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds of this offering for the purchase of our drone motor manufacturing equipment which we estimate to be approximately $4.0 million, general corporate purposes and working capital.

With the funds received from our recent offerings, we are focusing on growing both our enterprise and retail revenue channels and investing in drone component manufacturing in the United States. During the first quarter of 2025, we added both the Rotor Riot Brave 55A ESC (electronic speed controller), and the Fat Shark Aura FPV (first-person view) Camera to the U.S. Department of Defense Innovation Units Blue UAS Framework (“DIU Blue Framework”). In addition, in July 2025, we added the Fat Shark Aura Video Transmitter (VTX) to the DIU Blue Framework. In furtherance of our B2B business, we have entered into a new lease of a 17,000 square foot facility in Orlando, Florida effectively August 1, 2025, where we recently opened a drone motor manufacturing plant. See Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements. While we continued to see top line revenue growth during the first half of 2025, our continued future plans for retail revenue growth and margins are subject to uncertainties outside of our control, including changes to trade policy with respect to tariffs and other impacts to our global supply chain cost structure. We are continually evaluating the tariff landscape and working to find reliable and high quality suppliers in multiple countries including the United States and Taiwan that we anticipate will have the least amount of impact to our retail costs and overall margin. Because of the tariff uncertainties, we cannot predict the impact tariff policies in the United Staes and other countries will have on our business. But our consumer business (“B2C”) relies heavily on China so retaliatory tariffs can adversely affect us especially our B2C business. See “Item 1A – Risk Factors” for more information on the risks associated with the uncertainty of the imposition of tariffs on our business.

Rotor Lab Acquisition

On June 12, 2025, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) to acquire 100% of the capital stock of Rotor Lab Pty Ltd., an Australian company (“Rotor Lab”) from its existing shareholders. We agreed to issue the sellers a total of $4,000,000 of shares of our common stock, plus additional earnout consideration of up to $3,000,000 worth of shares of our common stock. $800,000 of the initial consideration will be restricted and subject to forfeiture in the event of a breach of representations and warranties and indemnification. The acquisition of Rotor Lab was finalized on September 3, 2025 with the issuance of 656,642 shares of our common stock.

Recent Customer Purchase Orders

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Controls and procedures

As filed, 2,883 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025, were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms because of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company did not maintain effective controls, segregation of duties, and procedures to support the identification of, accounting for, and the evaluation and disclosure of certain transactions, as limited individuals, either the Principal Executive Officer or Principal Financial Officer, initiates all transactions and they also review, evaluate, and approve these same transactions.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we have continued to strengthen our internal controls including hiring of a Controller that will help provide additional segregation of duties, additional processes related to our financial reporting, and starting the documentation of our internal control process. This includes certain segregation of duties including the recording of financial records in NetSuite, the creation of purchase orders by our purchasing team that is approved in accordance with our authorization matrix, the receipt of inventory in NetSuite by our operations team in Orlando, FL, and dual approvals of all outgoing cash payments. As the implementation of NetSuite occurred, we experienced changes to our processes and procedures which in turn, resulted in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. We expect NetSuite to strengthen our internal financial controls. Management will continue to evaluate and monitor our internal controls as processes and procedures in each of the affected areas evolve and plan to document our internal control framework and related activities.

Other than as discussed above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Because of our dependence on a few significant customers, our failure to generate revenue from such customers may impair our ability to achieve our projected financial results.

On October 15, 2025, we announced an order from the U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne Division for 3,500 NDAA-compliant motors produced at the company’s new U.S.-based manufacturing facility. The motors will support the Division’s deployment of the new Attritable Battlefield Enabler (A.B.E.) V1.01 drones. In addition to motors, the order includes U.S.-made, NDAA-compliant, and BLUE UAS-listed components: the Aura Analog Camera, Aura VTX, Brave Flight Controller, and Brave ESC. Together, these components ensure that the drones meet stringent compliance standards. The Army has also indicated plans to expand procurement, targeting an additional order of 20,000 components, including motors, from us in 2026.

On October 3, 2025, we secured an $800,000 purchase order for high-performance drone components from Red Cat. The order includes our BLUE UAS listed Aura Analog Camera, Aura VTX, Brave Flight Controller, Brave ESC, HDO+ Goggles, and motors, that will be integrated into Red Cat's FANG™ drones, supporting ongoing demand for U.S.-made, NDAA-compliant systems in defense, public safety, and other government agency applications.

On September 30, 2025 we announced a $12.8 million purchase order for components supplying Strategic Logix’s (“SL”) Rapid Reconfigurable Systems Line. There is no formal contract backstopping this purchase order. This purchase order represents the largest order that we have received to date and would account for more than our entire revenue over the nine months ending September 30, 2025.

We are dependent on fulfilling our backlog to a small number of customers, and SL in particular, to generate a significant portion of our B2B revenue, and these customers may change periodically. As a result, our financial results may be adversely affected if purchase orders from new or existing or future customers do not meet its assumptions or, if there is a default in payment by SL or any of our other customers. Furthermore, to the extent that any one customer or more accounts for a large percentage of our revenue, the loss of such customers, or changes in their buying patterns or decisions, could materially affect our financial results. If our customers experience financial difficulties or business reversals, or lose orders or anticipated orders, which may reduce or eliminate the need for the products which they ordered from us, they may be unable or unwilling to fulfill their contracts with us.

There is also a risk that SL or our other customers will attempt to impose new or additional requirements on us that reduce the profitability of the orders placed by those customers with us. Further, even if the orders are not changed, these orders may not generate margins equal to our recent historical or targeted results. If we do not book more orders with existing customers, or develop relationships with new customers, we may not be able to increase, or even maintain, our revenue, and our financial condition, results of operations, business and/or prospects may be materially adversely affected

Our failure to effectively manage our growth could harm its business.

Businesses which grow rapidly may have difficulty managing their growth. With our recent B2B orders and commencement of manufacturing, we are experiencing significant growth. Our drone motor manufacturing facility has recently opened and is operational. Further, we expect to open our headset manufacturing facility later in 2025 or in the first quarter of 2026. In addition, we have increased our headcount from 18 employees as of March 31, 2025, to 38 employees as of September 30, 2025, and we anticipate our headcount to continue to increase to over 75 before the end of the year. With our limited executive management team, we may be unable to effectively manage the growth, oversee our manufacturing facilities, integrate our new hires into our company culture and effectively deal with any human resource issues that may arise, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and future result of operations. In addition, with our rapid growth, we need to retain an OSHA consultant to identify, evaluate and control potential workplace hazards to prevent injuries, illnesses and fatalities We intend to retain a consultant to conduct such an assessment but there can be no assurance that any workplace hazards, injuries, illnesses and fatalities may occur which could have a material adverse effect on our business and future result of operations.

Rising threats of international tariffs, including tariffs applied to goods between the United States and China, may materially and adversely affect our business.

Our B2C business has historically been dependent on Chinese imports for our products and operations. For example, a majority of our products were manufactured, directly and indirectly, using Chinese vendors. However, our B2B business we instituted in the second half of 2024 employs a made in the United States model. Recently, the United States has imposed steep and additional tariffs on the importation from China and other countries of goods including the drone components we use in our B2C business. As a result, we have begun sourcing components from other countries including the United States and Taiwan. This creates several issues including increased costs and potential inventory shipment delays. This increase in tariffs imposed could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. These tariffs apply to the vast majority of our consumer inventory that we previously sourced for our B2C business. Except for our Unusual Machines branded products we have increased prices and may in the future be forced to implement additional price increases to adjust to the higher costs of inventory. This in turn creates the risk of reduced demand for such products and lower revenue. While to date, we appear to have not seen resistance based on increases in sales, that may not continue and future increases which we attempt to pass on to our customers may not work. Future inventory increases may require us to increase the prices of our branded products, which may result in decreased sales, particularly since we rely on consumer spending in our B2C channel and our B2C products are typically considered non-essential, and purchases are therefore highly price sensitive. The current status of tariffs remains uncertain and is subject ultimately to a United States Supreme Court ruling on the current administrations authority to impose tariffs.

In addition, changes in the state of China-United States relations, including any tensions relating to potential military conflict between China and Taiwan, are difficult to predict and could adversely affect the operations or financial condition of the Company given that we are shifting inventory for our B2C business to the United States and Taiwan. In addition to Chinese tariffs, one of our first B2B customers was a European company. While the United States and China have an agreement which sets tariffs on Chinese imports at 10%, that agreement is set to expire on November 10, 2025.
