NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1– Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Netcapital Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended July 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and footnotes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2023.

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023.

The Company accounts for allowance for credit losses under the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model for its financial assets, including accounts receivable, and presents the net amount of the financial instrument expected to be collected. The CECL impairment model requires an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of an instrument, which considers forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. Based on this model, the Company estimates the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable at the end of each reporting period based on the aging of the receivable balance, current and historical customer trends, communications with its customers, and macro-economic conditions. Amounts are written off after considerable collection efforts have been made and the amounts are determined to be uncollectible.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

Note 2 – Concentrations

For the three-month period ended July 31, 2023, the Company had one customer that constituted 37% of revenues and a second customer that constituted 37% of revenues. For the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, the Company had one customer that constituted 52% of its revenues and a second customer that constituted 24% of its revenues.

Note 3 – Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition under ASC 606

The Company recognizes service revenue from its consulting contracts, funding portal and game website using the five-step model as prescribed by ASC 606:

• Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

• Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

• Determination of the transaction price;

• Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

• Recognition of revenue when or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company identifies performance obligations in contracts with customers, which primarily are professional services, listing fees on our funding portal, and a portal fee of 4.9% of the money raised on the funding portal. The transaction price is determined based on the amount the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring the promised services to the customer. The transaction price in the contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation in an amount that represents the relative amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied. The Company usually bills its customers before it provides any services and begins performing services after the first payment is received. Contracts are typically one year or less. For larger contracts, in addition to the initial payment, the Company may allow for progress payments throughout the term of the contract.

Judgments and Estimates

The estimation of variable consideration for each performance obligation requires the Company to make subjective judgments. The Company enters into contracts with customers that regularly include promises to transfer multiple services, such as digital marketing, web-based videos, offering statements, and professional services. For arrangements with multiple services, the Company evaluates whether the individual services qualify as distinct performance obligations. In its assessment of whether a service is a distinct performance obligation, the Company determines whether the customer can benefit from the service on its own or with other readily available resources, and whether the service is separately identifiable from other services in the contract. This evaluation requires the Company to assess the nature of each individual service offering and how the services are provided in the context of the contract, including whether the services are significantly integrated, highly interrelated, or significantly modify each other, which may require judgment based on the facts and circumstances of the contract.

When agreements involve multiple distinct performance obligations, the Company allocates arrangement consideration to all performance obligations at the inception of an arrangement based on the relative standalone selling prices (SSP) of each performance obligation. Where the Company has standalone sales data for its performance obligations which are indicative of the price at which the Company sells a promised service separately to a customer, such data is used to establish SSP. In instances where standalone sales data is not available for a particular performance obligation, the Company estimates SSP by the use of observable market and cost-based inputs. The Company continues to review the factors used to establish list price and will adjust standalone selling price methodologies as necessary on a prospective basis.

Service Revenue

Service revenue from subscriptions to the Company's game website is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contractual subscription term beginning on the date that the platform is made available to the customer. Payments received in advance of subscription services being rendered are recorded as a deferred revenue. Professional services revenue is recognized over time as the services are rendered.

When a contract with a customer is signed, the Company assesses whether collection of the fees under the arrangement is probable. The Company estimates the amount to reserve for uncollectible amounts based on the aging of the contract balance, current and historical customer trends, and communications with its customers. These reserves are recorded as operating expenses against the contract asset (accounts receivable).

Contract Assets

Contract assets are recorded for those parts of the contract consideration not yet invoiced but for which the performance obligations are completed. The revenue is recognized when the customer receives services. Contract assets are included in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets and will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenues represent billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and are recognized upon transfer of control. Balances consist primarily of annual plan subscription services and professional services not yet provided as of the balance sheet date. Deferred revenues that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period are recorded as current deferred revenues in the consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder recorded as other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Costs to Obtain a Customer Contract

Sales commissions and related expenses are considered incremental and recoverable costs of acquiring customer contracts. These costs are capitalized as other current or non-current assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which approximates the benefit period. The benefit period was estimated by taking into consideration the length of customer contracts, technology lifecycle, and other factors. All sales commissions are recorded as consulting fees within the Company's consolidated statement of operations.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company's subscription terms are typically less than one year. All of the Company’s revenues in the three-month periods ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, which amounted to $1,519,809 and $1,340,573, respectively, are considered contract revenues. Contract revenue as of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, which has not yet been recognized, amounted to $600 and $661, respectively, and is recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue. The Company expects to recognize revenue on all of its remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Revenue is from U.S.-based companies with no notable geographical concentrations in any area. A distinction exists in revenue source; revenues are either generated online or from consulting services.

Revenues disaggregated by revenue source consist of the following:

Schedule of Disaggregation of Revenue


	Three Months Ended July 31, 2023		Three Months Ended July 31, 2022
Consulting services	$	1,143,700	$	1,161,830
Fees from online services		376,109		178,743
Total revenues	$	1,519,809	$	1,340,573

As of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, the Company owed its principal lender (“Lender”) $0 and $350,000, respectively, under an amended loan and security agreement dated July 26, 2014, amended several times thereafter and paid in full in May 2023.

As of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, the Company’s related-party unsecured notes payable totaled $15,000.

The Company owes $34,324 as of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023 to Chase Bank. For the loan from Chase Bank, the Company pays interest only on a monthly basis, which is calculated at a rate of 10.0% per annum as of July 31, 2023.

On May 6, 2020, the Company borrowed $1,885,800 (the “May Loan”), on June 17, 2020 the Company borrowed $500,000 (the “June Loan”), and on February 2, 2021, the Company borrowed $1,885,800 (the “February Loan”) from a U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loan program.

The May loan bore interest at a rate of 1% per annum and was forgiven in its entirety in fiscal 2022.

The June Loan required installment payments of $2,437 monthly, beginning on June 17, 2021, over a term of thirty years. However, the SBA postponed the first installment payment for 18 months, and the first payment became due on December 17, 2022. The monthly payments of $2,437 are first applied to accrued interest payable. The monthly payments will not be applied to any of the outstanding principal balance until 2026. Consequently, the entire loan balance of $500,000 is classified as a long term liability. Interest accrues at a rate of 3.75% per annum. The Company agreed to grant a continuing security interest in its assets to secure payment and performance of all debts, liabilities, and obligations to the SBA. The June Loan was personally guaranteed by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

The February loan bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum and the due date of the first payment has been postponed by the SBA because the Company has applied for forgiveness of the February Loan.

Note 9 – Fair Value

The Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

●

Level 1: inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

●

Level 2: inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

●

Level 3: inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Under the Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, we base fair value on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is our policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements, in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Fair value measurements for assets and liabilities where there exists limited or no observable market data and, therefore, are based primarily upon management’s own estimates, are often calculated based on current pricing policy, the economic and competitive environment, the characteristics of the asset or liability and other such factors. Therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used.

Note 10 – Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Note 12 – Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with defined useful lives are generally measured at cost less straight-line amortization. The useful life is determined using the period of the underlying contract or the period of time over which the intangible asset can be expected to be used. Impairments are recognized if the recoverable amount of the asset is lower than the carrying amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of either the fair value less costs to sell or the value in use. The value in use is determined on the basis of future cash inflows and outflows, and the weighted average cost of capital. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, such as trade names and trademarks, that have been acquired as part of acquisitions are measured at cost and tested for impairment annually, or if there is an indication that their value has declined.

The following table sets forth the major categories of the intangible assets as of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023

Schedule of intangible assets

	July 31, 2023		April 30, 2023

Total intangible assets	$	15,971,704	$	15,971,704

As of July 31, 2023, the weighted average remaining useful life for technology, trade names, professional practice, literary works and domains is 14.09 years. Accumulated amortization amounted to $124,738 as of July 31, 2023, resulting in net intangible assets of $15,846,966.

PART I

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports filed by the Company from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Company’s management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the Filings, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

Overview

Netcapital Inc. is a fintech company with a scalable technology platform that allows private companies to raise capital online from accredited and non-accredited investors. We give investors the opportunity to access investments in private companies. We believe our model is disruptive to traditional private equity investing and is based on Title III, Reg CF of the JOBS Act. In addition, we have recently expanded our model to include Regulation A (“Reg A”) offerings. We generate fees from listing private companies on our funding portal located at www.netcapital.com. We also generate fees from advising companies with respect to their Reg A offerings posted on www.netcapital.com. Our consulting group, Netcapital Advisors, Inc. (Netcapital Advisors), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary, provides marketing and strategic advice in exchange for equity positions and cash fees. Neither Netcapital Advisors, nor any Netcapital entity, is a broker- dealer, nor do any of such entities operate as a broker-dealer with respect to any Reg A offering listed on the www.netcapital.com website. The Netcapital funding portal is registered with the SEC, is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, a registered national securities association, and provides investors with opportunities to invest in private companies.

We provide private company investment access to accredited retail and non-accredited retail investors through our online portal (www.netcapital.com), which is operated by our wholly-owned subsidiary Netcapital Funding Portal, Inc. The Netcapital funding portal charges a $5,000 engagement fee and a 4.9% success fee for capital raised at closing. In addition, the portal generates fees for other ancillary services, such as rolling closes. Netcapital Advisors generates fees and equity stakes from consulting in select portfolio and non-portfolio clients. With respect to its services for Reg A offerings, Netcapital Advisors charges a monthly flat fee for each month the offering is listed on the netcapital.com website as well as a nominal administrative flat fee for each investor that is processed to cover out-of-pocket costs.

Netcapital.com is an SEC-registered funding portal that enables private companies to raise capital online, while investors are able to invest from almost anywhere in the world, at any time, with just a few clicks. Securities offerings on the portal are accessible through individual offering pages, where companies include product or service details, market size, competitive advantages, and financial documents. Companies can accept investment from virtually anyone, including friends, family, customers, employees, etc.

In addition to access to the funding portal, Netcapital provides the following services:

● a fully automated onboarding process;

● automated filing of required regulatory documents;

● compliance review;

● custom-built offering page on our portal website;

● third party transfer agent and custodial services;

● email marketing to our proprietary list of investors;

● rolling closes, which provide potential access to liquidity before final close date of offering;

● assistance with annual filings; and

● direct access to our team for ongoing support.

The company's consulting group, Netcapital Advisors helps companies at all stages to raise capital. Netcapital Advisors provides strategic advice, technology consulting and digital marketing services to assist with fundraising campaigns on the Netcapital platform. The company also acts as an incubator and accelerator, taking equity stakes in select disruptive start-ups. In the instances where we take equity stakes in a company, such interests are of the same class of securities that are offered on the Netcapital platform.

Netcapital Advisors’ services include:

● incubation of technology start-ups;

● investor introductions;

● digital marketing;

● website design, software and software development;

● message crafting, including pitch decks, offering pages, and ad creation;

● strategic advice; and

● technology consulting.

Our valuation group, MSG Development Corp., which is also a wholly-owned subsidiary, prepares valuations.

The valuation services include:

● business valuations;

● fairness and solvency opinions;

● ESOP feasibility and valuation;

● non-cash charitable contributions;

● economic analysis of damages;

● intellectual property appraisals; and

● compensation studies.

Recent Developments

On May 23, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to such investors, in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”), 1,100,000 shares (the “Shares”) of our common stock at a price of $1.55 per Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,705,000, before deducting the placement agent's fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Offering closed on May 25, 2023 and we received aggregate net proceeds of $1,468,700. In conjunction with this offering, we issued the placement agent and its designees warrants to purchase 55,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.94.

Repayment of Secured Debt

On May 25, 2023, we paid $367,167 to our secured lender, Vaxstar LLC, to pay off the remaining $350,000 principal balance and $17,167 in interest, using a portion of the net proceeds of the Offering. Following repayment to Vaxstar LLC the facility was closed and all related agreements were terminated in accordance with their terms.

Recent Common Stock Issuances.

In April and May 2023, we issued an aggregate of 450,000 shares of common stock to consultants in consideration of services rendered. In addition, in July 2023, we issued 49,855 shares of common stock to an unrelated third party, in consideration of a release from such third party related to settlement of an outstanding debt between such third-party and Netcapital Systems LLC. In July 2023, we issued 18,750 shares of our common stock in connection with our acquisition of a 10% interest in Caesar’s Media Group, Inc. We did not receive any proceeds from these issuances. Such shares were issued as restricted securities and were issued pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

July 2023 Public Offering

On July 24, 2023 we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,725,000 shares of our common stock, at a price to the public of $0.70 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,207,500, before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses payable by us. In conjunction with this offering, we issued the underwriter and its designees warrants to purchase 86,250 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.875.

Notice from Nasdaq on Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule

On September 1, 2023, we were notified (the “Notification Letter”) by The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) that we are not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of our common stock between July 20, 2023 and August 31, 2023, we no longer meet the minimum bid price requirement. The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market and, at this time, the common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “NCPL.”

The Notification Letter provides that we have 180 calendar days, or until February 28, 2024, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the bid price of our common stock must have a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. If we do not regain compliance by February 28, 2024, an additional 180 days may be granted to regain compliance, so long as we meet The Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirement for market value of publicly-held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, other than the minimum closing bid price requirement and notifies Nasdaq in writing of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If we do not qualify for the second compliance period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify us of its determination to delist our common stock, at which point the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

We intend to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options, including, but not limited to, implementing a reverse stock split of its outstanding securities, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended July 31, 2023 and 2022

Our revenues for the three months ended July 31, 2023, increased by $179,236, or 13%, to $1,519,809, as compared to $1,340,573 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The increase in revenues was primarily attributed to an increase of 335% in the portal fees that we earn from issuers that sell equity securities on our funding portal, which amounted to $221,856 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, as compared to $51,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. Additionally, funding portal revenue from new issuers signing engagement letters increased by $26,500, or 21%, to $154,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 as compared to $127,500 for the three months ended July 31, 2022. The components of revenue were as follows:

Costs of revenues decreased by $3,010, or 14%, to $18,053 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 from $21,063 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributed to a decrease in cost of sales for our valuation services during the three months ended July 31, 2023.

Payroll and payroll related expenses increased by $267,102, or 35%, to $1,037,042 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, as compared to $769,940 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The increase was attributed to new hires and salary increases.

Marketing expense increased by $234,108, or 3,009%, to $241,888 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, as compared to $7,780 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The increase was to bring awareness to the funding portal operations and the Company to attract new issuers and investors.

Rent expense increased by $2,398, or 14%, to $19,610 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, as compared to $17,212 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The increase was attributed to additional expenses for renting the virtual office space in the corporate headquarters in Boston.

General and administrative expenses increased by $395,997, or 101%, to $788,294 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, from $392,297 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributed to professional fees, including stock-based compensation.

Consulting expense increased by $38,331, or 31%, to $163,942 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 from $125,611 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributed to increased payments of software engineers.

Interest expense decreased by $23,008, or 63%, to $13,304 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, as compared to $36,312 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. The decrease in interest expense was primarily attributed to lower debt amounts that resulted from paying off a secured term loan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,030,618 and negative working capital of $1,638,594 as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $569,441 and negative working capital of $2,622,670 at April 30, 2023.

We have been successful in raising capital by completing public offerings of our common stock.

On July 15, 2022, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 1,205,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase 1,205,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a combined public offering price of $4.15 per share and warrant. The gross proceeds from the offering were $5,000,750 prior to deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering expenses. The warrants have a per share exercise price of $5.19, are exercisable immediately, and expire five years from the date of issuance. With the use of proceeds, we paid $1 million of debt to our secured lender, to reduce the outstanding principal balance to $400,000.

On December 16, 2022 we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,247,000 shares of our common stock, at a price to the public of $1.40 per share. In conjunction with this offering, we issued the underwriter and its designees warrants to purchase 62,350 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.75. The underwriters exercised their over-allotment option and on January 5, 2023, we issued an additional 187,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.40 per share. We received net proceeds of $1,621,459 for the issuance of a total of 1,434,000 shares of common stock in both the initial and over-allotment offering. In conjunction with the exercise of the over-allotment, the Company issued the underwriter and its designees warrants to purchase 9,350 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.75.

On May 23, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to such investors, in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”), 1,100,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price of $1.55 per Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,705,000, before deducting the placement agent's fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Offering closed on May 25, 2023. The Shares were offered and issued and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File 333-267921), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on October 18, 2022 and declared effective on October 26, 2022.

With the use of proceeds, we paid our secured lender $350,000 in principal plus accrued interest of $17,167.23 to retire all outstanding obligations to the secured lender.

We believe that our existing cash investment balances, our anticipated cash flows from operations and liquidity sources including offering of equity and/or debt securities and/or the sale of equity positions in certain portfolio companies for which Netcapital Advisors provides marketing and strategic advice will be sufficient to meet our working capital and expenditure requirements for the next 12 months. Although we believe we have adequate sources of liquidity over the next 12 months, the success of our operations, the global economic outlook, and the pace of sustainable growth in our markets, in each case, in light of the market volatility and uncertainty as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, among other factors, could impact our business and liquidity. Up to this point in time, we believe the pandemic has helped drive people to online investing, as we see regular monthly increases in users and dollars invested, and an increase in issuers seeking to use online fund-raising services in lieu of face-to-face meetings.

Year over Year Changes

Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $1,464,023 and $1,063,672 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The principal uses of cash from operating activities in the three months ended July 31, 2023 were a net loss of $491,655 and the receipt of equity securities in lieu of cash amounting to $1,170,000. These uses of cash were partially offset by a non-cash item, stock-based compensation of $483,351. The principal sources of cash from operating activities for the three months ended July 31, 2022 was net income of $64,477, a realized loss on investments of $406,060 and stock-based compensation of $32,953. However, these sources of cash were offset by the receipt of equity securities in lieu of cash of $1,200,000, changes in deferred taxes of $297,000 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $135,388.

There were no investing activities during the three months ended July 31, 2023. Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $200,000 in the three months ended July 31, 2022. The cash provided consisted of proceeds from the sale of 606,060 shares of an investment in KingsCrowd Inc.

For the three months ended July 31, 2023, cash provided by financing activities amounted to $1,925,200, which consisted of proceeds of $2,275,200 for the sale of common stock, offset by a $350,000 payment to retire debt from a secured lender. For the three months ended July 31, 2022, cash provided from financing activities amounted to $2,945,917, which included proceeds from the sale of common stock of $3,949,117, a payment of $3,200 for a related party note, and payment of $1,000,000 to a secured lender.

In the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no expenditures for capital assets. We do not anticipate any capital expenditures in fiscal 2024.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer (the “PEO”) and Principal Financial Officer (the “PFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e)) as of July 31, 2022. Based on that evaluation, the PEO and the PFO concluded that, as of July 31, 2023, such controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). A system of internal control over financial reporting is a process designed 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.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the PEO and the PFO, the Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2023, based on the criteria established in a report entitled “2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission” and the interpretive guidance issued by the Commission in Release No. 34-55929. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management has evaluated and concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of July 31, 2023.

The Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2023 does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s registered public accounting firm was not required to issue an attestation on its internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the SEC. The Company will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and procedures on an ongoing basis.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) during the quarter ended July 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2023 as filed with the SEC on July 27, 2023 (“Annual Report”). There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report, except as discussed below. You should carefully consider the risks described in our Annual Report, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations could be negatively affected.

Our ability to have our securities traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market is subject to us meeting applicable listing criteria.

We are currently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”), a national securities exchange. The Nasdaq requires companies desiring to list their common stock to meet certain listing criteria including total number of shareholders: minimum stock price, total value of public float, and in some cases total shareholders’ equity and market capitalization. Our failure to meet such applicable listing criteria could prevent us from listing our common stock on the Nasdaq. In the event we are unable to have our shares traded on Nasdaq, our common stock could potentially trade on the OTCQX or the OTCQB, each of which is generally considered less liquid and more volatile than the Nasdaq. Our failure to have our shares traded on the Nasdaq could make it more difficult for you to trade our shares, could prevent our common stock trading on a frequent and liquid basis and could result in the value of our common stock being less than it would be if we were able to list our shares on the Nasdaq.

On September 1, 2023, we received written notice from Nasdaq that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as the minimum bid price of our common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810, we have a period of 180-calendar days, or until February 8, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive business days during this 180-calendar day period. In the event we do not regain compliance by February 8, 2024, we may be eligible for an additional 180-calendar day grace period so long as we meet The Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirement for market value of publicly-held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, other than the minimum closing bid price requirement and notifies Nasdaq in writing of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If we do not qualify for or fail to regain compliance during the second compliance period, then Nasdaq will notify us of its determination to delist our common stock, at which point we would have an option to appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. We intend to actively monitor the closing bid price of our common stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

If we are unable to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement and Nasdaq delists our common stock and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our shareholders:

●

the liquidity of our common stock;

●

the market price of our common stock;

●

our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;

●

the number of institutional and general investors that will consider investing in our common stock;

●

the number of investors in general that will consider investing in our common stock;

●

the number of market makers in our common stock;

●

the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our common stock; and

●

the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our common stock.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

On July 31, 2023, the Company issued 18,750 shares of its common stock in conjunction with the purchase of a 10% interest in Caesar Media Group Inc. The Company did not receive any proceeds for the issuance of these shares. The issuance was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.

None.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.
