Prior Operations

Organizational history

Groove Botanicals, Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly known as Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc.), was originally incorporated in Colorado on April 25, 1991 under the name Snow Runner (USA), Inc. The Company was the general partner of Snow Runner (USA) Ltd.; a Colorado limited partnership to sell proprietary snow skates under the name “Sled Dogs” which was dissolved in August 1992. In late 1993, the Company relocated its operations to Minnesota and in January 1994 changed its name to Snow Runner, Inc. In November 1994 we changed our name to the Sled Dogs Company. In May 1999, we changed our state of domicile to Nevada and our name to XDOGS.COM, Inc. On July 31, 1998, the Company split their shares One (1) for Fifty-Four (54). On August 24, 2000, the Company split their shares One (1) for Five (5) and changed our name from XDOGS.COM to XDOGS, Inc. We changed our symbol from XDGS to XDGI. On June 22, 2005, the Company changed our name from XDOGS, Inc. to Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc. We changed our symbol from XDGI to AOGS. On July 22, 2005, the Board of Directors and a majority of the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change the Company’s name to Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., and to increase the authorized number of shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 1,000,000,000 shares par value of $0.001. On May 15, 2007, the Company split its shares One (1) for Twenty (20). We changed our symbol from AOGS to AOGN. On June 4, 2012, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to a reverse split of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (“Shares”) such that each holder of Shares as of the record date of June 4, 2012 shall receive one (1) post-split Share on the effective date of June 4, 2012 for each three hundred (300) Shares owned. The reverse split was effective on July 23, 2012. On September 28, 2012, we held a special meeting of Avalon’s shareholders and approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation such that the Company would be authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock. We filed an amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State on April 10, 2013, to increase our authorized shares to 200,000,000. On July 23, 2012, the Company split their shares One (1) for Three Hundred (300). On May 14, 2018, the Company changed its name from Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc., to Groove Botanicals, Inc. We changed our symbol from AOGN to GRVE. On August 2, 2021, we filed a Form 15-12B to suspend our duty to file reports under sections 13 and 15(d) of the securities exchange act of 1934. Since inception we have operated unsuccessfully, in various different industries.

Present Operations

We plan to assemble a portfolio of early-stage EV Battery Technologies developed from Universities in Norway, Sweden and Finland, and seek grants from the State of Minnesota Department of Economic Development to find and identify corporate partners to commercialize these technologies and ultimately produce revenues for the Company. The Company does not currently own any patents or technologies related to the EV battery industry, and the process to acquire patents and technologies can be costly, and as such, the Company is not guaranteed to acquire any such patents.

Management believes that the technologies available in the specialized energy industry present a stable business model with high growth potential and we are actively working towards an impactful acquisition in this space.

As the Company continues its business development and asset acquisitions, the Company anticipates our capital needs to be between $500,000 and $5,000,000 (varying based on growth strategies).

Principal Products

We do not currently have any products. We are working to assemble a portfolio of early-stage EV Battery Technologies.

Marketing, Sales and Customer Service

We currently are not undertaking any marketing or sales activities.

Competition

Entering the Green Energy Market is highly competitive and there are many large companies focusing on the industry. Several small companies have entered the space and caused it to become fragmented and the barrier for entry to the market is more complicated.

Intellectual Property

The Company does not currently own any patents or technologies related to the EV battery industry, and the process to acquire patents and technologies can be costly, and as such, the Company is not guaranteed to acquire any such patents.

Government and Industry Regulation

The Biden-Harris Administration and 117th Congress have passed critical legislation that will establish U.S. leadership in electric transportation and maintain our global competitiveness in the automotive industry. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3684), and the Inflation Reduction Act (https://electrificationcoalition.org/work/federal-ev-policy/inflation-reduction-act/) are historic acts that invest hundreds of millions into the EV sector. They will bolster U.S. manufacturing and supply chains to support the transition for both the light-duty and medium- and heavy-duty sectors.

Beginning January 1, 2023, the Clean Vehicle Credit (CVC) provisions removed the manufacturer sales caps for vehicles sold after January 1, 2023, expanded the scope of eligible vehicles to include both EVs and FCEVs, and required that the battery powering the vehicle has a capacity of at least seven kilowatt-hours (kWh).

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) established the Battery Safety Initiative for Electric Vehicles (Initiative) to coordinate research and other activities relating to electric vehicle (EV) battery safety. The Initiative is responsible for:

	•	Collecting and analyzing data related to EV batteries;
	•	Examining field incidents and conducting battery safety investigations from EV crash and non-crash events;
	•	Researching and evaluating EV battery health, battery management systems and cybersecurity, and high-voltage battery charging failures and effects; and,
	•	Investigating safety-related battery defects.

The NHTSA Initiative also participates in the development of Global Technical Regulation (GTR) No. 20 for EV Safety(PDF) (https://unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/trans/main/wp29/wp29wgs/wp29gen/wp29registry/ECE-TRANS-180a20e.pdf) which includes battery fire safety. For more information, see the NHTSA’s Initiative (https://www.nhtsa.gov/battery-safety-initiative) website.

The Secretaries of Transportation and Energy jointly established an EVWG to make recommendations regarding the development, adoption, and integration of light-, medium-, and heavy-duty electric vehicles (EVs) into the transportation and energy system of the United States. The EVWG is comprised of 25 members from federal agencies, the automotive industry, the energy industry, state and local governments, labor organizations, and the property development industry. The EVWG will produce three reports describing the status of EV adoption, including barriers and opportunities to scale up EV adoption, and recommendations for EV issues including EV charging station needs, manufacturing and battery costs, EV adoption for low- and moderate-income individuals and underserved communities, and EV charging station permitting and regulatory issues. The first report must be submitted within 18 months of the EVWG establishment, and the second and third reports each two years thereafter. Based on the EVWG reports, the Secretaries of Transportation and Energy must jointly develop, maintain, and update an EV strategy that includes how the federal, state, and local governments, and industry can establish quantitative transportation electrification targets, overcome barriers, provide public EV education and awareness, identify areas of opportunity in research and development to lower EV cost and increase performance, and expand EV charging station deployment. The Secretaries and the Working Group will use existing federal resources such as the Alternative Fuels Data Center (https://afdc.energy.gov/), the Energy Efficient Mobility Systems (https://www.energy.gov/eere/vehicles/energy-efficient-mobility-systems/) program, and the Clean Cities and Communities Coalition Network (https://cleancities.energy.gov). The EVWG was established on June 8, 2022, and will terminate upon the submission of the third and final report. For more information, see the EVWG (https://driveelectric.gov/ev-working-group/) website.

New Policies which may impact our business plan:

“Donald Trump’s return to the presidency has brought sweeping changes to the electric vehicle (EV) and battery sectors. Among the most consequential moves, Trump revoked a 2021 executive order targeting 50% EV sales by 2030, a change certain to disrupt automakers’ strategies. The 2021 order had been instrumental in shaping automakers’ strategies and fostering EV adoption in the U.S. While the target was nonbinding, it was supported by major automakers, who now face significant uncertainties.

Trump’s administration has also frozen $5 billion allocated for EV charging stations, a move that will potentially slow the expansion of critical infrastructure needed to support widespread EV adoption. The administration also aims to eliminate state emissions waivers, such as California’s, which set stricter rules for phasing out gasoline-powered vehicles by 2035. If successful, this could stall progress in the transition to EVs in multiple states, affecting automakers who have invested heavily in EV development in response to these

regulations. Instead, Trump’s policies favor reallocating funds to bolster domestic battery manufacturing for “national defense supply chains.”

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been directed to reevaluate rules requiring automakers to increase EV production to meet stricter emissions controls by 2032. The administration’s swift policy reversal has already led to market volatility and raised concerns about the future of U.S. EV and battery initiatives.

Financial markets react to policy uncertainty

The financial impact of these changes has been immediate. Shares in Asian automakers and battery makers dropped following Trump’s announcements, highlighting the global ripple effects of U.S. policy shifts. South Korean battery manufacturers, such as LG Energy Solution and SK Innovation, experienced declines of 4.3% and 3.7%, respectively, as reported by Reuters. Japanese automakers also faced challenges, with Mazda Motor and Honda Motor shares falling 2% and 0.3%.

Despite these setbacks, Chinese EV manufacturers’ shares rose after Trump refrained from targeting Beijing in his inauguration speech, reflecting the intricate dynamics of global EV competition. Takahide Kiuchi, chief economist at Nomura Research Institute, told Reuters that additional tariffs and policy changes could worsen export conditions for Asian countries reliant on U.S. markets.

Impact on EV incentives and US manufacturers

Trump’s rollback of EV mandates includes a push to reconsider the popular $7,500 federal tax credit for EV purchases. Narrowing eligibility criteria for this tax credit could potentially reduce the number of qualifying vehicles, influencing consumer behavior by raising the effective cost of EVs. Automakers may need to adjust their strategies to account for this shift. While fully repealing the tax credit would require Congressional action, Trump’s administration may narrow eligibility criteria, reducing the number of vehicles that qualify for incentives. This could disproportionately impact companies like Tesla, General Motors, and Ford, which have invested heavily in U.S.-based battery factories to benefit from previous subsidies.

Automakers with Mexican manufacturing operations are also under pressure. Trump has indicated potential 25% tariffs on vehicles imported from Canada and Mexico, starting as early as February. These tariffs would significantly affect companies like Honda and Mazda, which rely on Mexican plants to supply the U.S. market. Nissan, which exports approximately 300,000 vehicles annually from Mexico to the U.S., also faces heightened risks.

Broader industry repercussions

The EV industry’s growth has been closely tied to stable incentives and policies. According to PwC, U.S. EV adoption was on track to reach 27 million vehicles by 2030, driven by government support. Trump’s abrupt policy reversals could stall this momentum, affecting both domestic and global manufacturers. The Financial Times noted that regulatory overhauls, while not immediate, could have a chilling effect on the market as automakers and investors adapt to new uncertainties.

Trump’s decision to resume issuing export permits for liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects and his emphasis on energy independence signal a broader shift away from clean energy initiatives.

Challenges ahead for automakers and battery makers

As the U.S. EV market adjusts to these sweeping changes, automakers and battery manufacturers must navigate an increasingly complex landscape. Legal challenges to Trump’s policies are likely, but the administration’s swift actions have already created significant market disruptions. For now, the industry faces an uncertain future, with stakeholders bracing for the long-term implications of these policy shifts.”

Item 1C. Cybersecurity

We recognize the importance of developing, implementing, and maintaining robust cybersecurity measures to protect our information systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our data. Presently our information systems are limited to databases maintained by third parties. As a result, we have limited policies and procedures to assess, identify, and manage material risk from cybersecurity threats. We assess risks from cybersecurity threats against our third-party information systems that may result in adverse effects on our information systems or any information residing therein. We conduct periodic and ad-hoc assessments to identify cybersecurity threats. Presently we do not believe there are any material threats to our systems.

Following these risk assessments, if needed, we evaluate whether and/or how to re-design, implement, and maintain reasonable safeguards to mitigate identified risks and reasonably address any identified gaps in existing safeguards. We do not yet have an IT manager given our limited exposure to risks, and therefore the review of our limited systems is undertaken by our President to manage the risk assessment and mitigation process. When applicable to our corporate structure and when we believe exposure to risks within our systems exceeds the current limited levels of exposure, we will monitor and test our safeguards and train our employees on the implementation of such safeguards, in collaboration with human resources, IT, and management, as available. We aim to promote a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management as we grow in size.

Risks from Cybersecurity Threats

As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any cybersecurity incidents, that have had a materially adverse effect on our operations, business, results of operations, or financial condition.

b) Holders

On March 31, 2025, there are approximately 720 holders of record of our common stock.

c) Dividends

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Holders of Series A Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series A Preferred equal (on an as-converted to common stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on our common stock.

Series A Preferred Stock holds designations of cash dividends at the rate of 8% of the amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock per annum in the form of “Preferred Dividends”, voting rights on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, liquidation preferences, and conversion rights in which each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall, upon conversion, represent 0.51% of the then “Fully-Diluted Shares Outstanding” of the Company. On January 12, 2018, our Board of Directors agreed to amend Designation of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock be amended by changing the ratio for conversion, in Article IV, subparagraph (a), from 0.4% to 0.51% so that upon conversion the number of shares of common stock to be exchanged shall equal 51% of then issued and outstanding common stock. In addition, on January 12, 2018, the Company and the Series A Holder agreed to forgive all accrued interest to date on the Series A, and to pause any accruals until April 1, 2023. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock carries liquidating preference, over all other classes of stock, equal to the amount paid for the stock plus any unpaid dividends. Currently the value of the liquidation preference is $500,000, the amount of debt that the related party converted into the preferred stock. If this Preferred Stock were to be redeemed by the holder, it would result in an aggregate of the $500,000 liquidation preference, on a per share basis, this would equal $5,000 per share. The Company and Series A Preferred Holder agreed to forgive all accrued interest and arrearages in preferred share dividends of Series A Preferred Stock through March 31, 2023. Dividends began to accrue on the Series A Preferred Stock as of April 1, 2023.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the holder of the Series A preferred shares accrued $40,000 in preferred dividends from the Series A preferred shares. A total of $80,000 and $40,000 in dividends was outstanding at March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, respectively.

Series B Preferred Stock holds designations of being ranked junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, cash dividends at the rate of 9% of the amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock per annum in the form of “Preferred Dividends”, a dividend received deduction for federal income tax purposes, liquidation preferences ranked junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock by the Company at 105% of the Stated Value, plus accrued and unpaid Dividends, if prior to the two year anniversary of the Issuance Date, or at 100% of the State Value, plus accrued and unpaid Dividends, if on or after the two year anniversary of the Issuance Date, no voting rights, and right to notice of certain corporate action. All accrued dividends on the Series B have been settled through March 31, 2023, and none currently remains outstanding. Dividends began to accrue on the Series B Preferred Stock as of April 1, 2023.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the holders of the Series B preferred shares accrued $178,468, in preferred dividends from the Series B preferred shares. A total of $356,940 and $178,470 in dividends was outstanding at March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, respectively.

Item 6. Reserved

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains predictions, estimates and other forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors including the risks set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our registration statement on Form 10-12G/A, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 6, 2023, that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this Report. You should read this Report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. We undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they are made, except as required by federal securities and any other applicable law.

The management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The Company relies primarily on its current sole officer and director, Kent Rodriguez to manage its day-to-day business and has outsourced professional services to third parties in an effort to maintain lower operational costs.

Mr. Rodriguez, as the holder of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, holds 51% of the voting rights of the Company. He will be able to influence the outcome of all corporate actions requiring the approval of our stockholders.

Results of Operations

Revenue

We have not generated any revenue since our inception and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products in the near future.

Operating Expenses

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 we had the following operating expenses:

	For the Year ended March 31,
	2025		2024
Operating expenses:
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses	$	73,087	$	73,743
Rent		15,435		18,576
Legal and Professional Expenses		42,312		95,962
Consulting Expense		—		78,300
Total operating expenses	$	130,834	$	266,581

Total operating expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, were $130,834 compared to total operating expenses of $266,581 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in operating expenses during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, is mainly due to a reduction in consulting expenses from $78,300 (March 31, 2024) to $Nil (March 31, 2025). Consulting expenses recorded in the year ended March 31, 2024 were the result of a consulting agreement with an independent third party settled by shares of common stock valued at $78,300 which terminated in the period ended March 31, 2024. The Company recorded a slight reduction in general and administrative expenses from $73,743 in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, to $73,087 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. Rent remained relatively constant for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, with a slight decrease of $3,141 in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, due to the cancellation of previously rented storage space during the year ended March 31, 2025. Professional fees decreased from $95,962 (March 31, 2024) to $42,312 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 substantially due to a reduction in audit costs and professional fees in the current fiscal year. Increased professional fees in fiscal 2024 were the result of filing a Form 10 with the SEC and the associated requirement for additional legal and accounting fees associated with these filings.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 financing activities consisted solely of related party advances in the amount of $107,776.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are in need of additional cash resources to maintain our operations. As of March 31, 2025 we had cash of $2,042 and prepaid expenses of $2,478. We are in the early stage of development and have experienced net losses to date and have not generated revenue from operations which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There are a number of conditions that we must satisfy before we will be able to acquire, license and acquire products and intellectual property, not the least of which is negotiating and financing any acquisitions. We are in the process of identifying and establishing strategic partners and technologies in order to establish a market and generate commercial orders by customers and licensing which will include effective marketing and sales capabilities for any products. We do not currently have sufficient resources to accomplish any of these conditions necessary for us to generate revenue and expect to incur increasing operating expenses. We will require substantial additional funds for operations, the service of debt and to fund our business objectives. There can be no assurance that financing, whether debt or equity, will always be available to us in the amount required at any particular time or for any particular period or, if available, that it can be obtained on terms favorable to us. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of equity securities, such as through the issuance and exercise of warrants, then existing stockholders will experience dilution of their ownership interest. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other equity instruments, we may be subject to certain limitations in our operations, and issuance of such securities may have rights senior to those of the then existing stockholders. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person or entity to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception and has raised limited capital. The Company had a net loss of $130,834 and $202,089 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s accumulated deficit was $35,196,581 and $34,847,277 as of March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company is taking certain steps to provide the necessary capital to continue its operations. These steps include but are not limited to 1) focus on our new business model and 2) raising equity or debt financing. Our auditors express substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of their evaluation form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in the Notes to our Financial Statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Specifically, such estimates were made by the Company for the valuation of derivative liability, stock compensation and beneficial conversion feature expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.

Disclosure in response to this Item is not required for a smaller reporting company.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The financial statements required by this Item 8 are included in this Annual Report beginning on page F-1.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

On May 8, 2024, the Board of Directors of Groove Botanicals Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) announced that it had settled charges against BF Borgers that it failed to conduct audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). As part of the settlement, BF Borgers agreed to a permanent ban on appearing or practicing before the SEC (the “Ban”). As a result of BF Borgers’ settlement with the SEC, the Company dismissed BF Borgers as its independent accountant.

The reports of BF Borgers on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles other than an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company had not yet engaged a report from BF Borgers for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 as of the date of the Ban.

During the fiscal years ended March, 2023 and 2022, and through the date of termination, May 8, 2024, there were no “disagreements” with BF Borgers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of BF Borgers would have caused BF Borgers to make reference thereto in its reports on the consolidated financial statement for such years. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and through May 8, 2024, there have been no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Registration S-K), except for the identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has advised that, in lieu of obtaining a letter from BF Borgers stating whether or not it agrees with the statements herein, the Company may indicate that BF Borgers is not currently permitted to appear or practice before the SEC for reasons described in the SEC’s Order Instituting Public Administrative and Cease-and-Desist Proceedings Pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 4C and 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 102(e) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions and a Cease-and-Desist Order, dated May 3, 2024.

On June 13, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the appointment of M.S. Madhava Rao, Chartered Accountant (“Rao”) as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately, to perform independent review and audit services for the fiscal years ending March 31, 2024 and 2023. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 and through June 13, 2024, date of engagement, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted Rao regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the consolidated financial statements of the Company, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by Rao that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a "disagreement" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.

As of March 31, 2025, we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of March 31, 2025.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer [and principal financial officer], we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of March 31, 2025, of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under this framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2025 due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

Our internal controls are not effective for the following reasons: (i) there is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives as management is comprised of only one person, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer and, (ii) the Company does not have an audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

In order to mitigate the foregoing material weaknesses, we have engaged an outside accounting consultant with significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

We would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will continue to reassess this matter to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible. In addition, we would need to expand our board to include independent members.

Going forward, we intend to evaluate our processes and procedures and, where practicable and resources permit, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are not “large accelerated filers” nor “accelerated filers” under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information

None.

Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections.

Not applicable.

PART III.

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

The following table sets forth the name, age and position of each of our executive officers and directors as of the date of this report:

Name		Age		Position
Kent Rodriguez		67		Director, President, Treasurer, Secretary

Background of Executive Officers and Directors

Our directors are elected for a term of one year and serve until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified. Each executive officer serves at the pleasure of the Board.

Kent Rodriguez

Mr. Rodriguez joined the Company as Chief Executive Officer, Secretary, and Principal Financial Officer in May 2009. Since 1995, he has been the Managing Partner of Weyer Capital Partners, a Minneapolis-based venture capital corporation. He has a B.A. degree in Geology from Carleton College, and an Executive MBA from the Harvard Business School. Mr. Rodriguez is the related party who has provided funds to the Company, which are owed back to him and can be found within the Balance Sheets and footnotes referenced throughout this filing as related party payables.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among any of our executive officers or directors.

Board Composition

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors, which presently consists of one member. Our current director will continue to serve as a director until his resignation, removal or successor is duly elected.

Our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws permit our board of directors to establish the authorized number of directors from time to time by resolution. Each director serves until the expiration of the term for which such director was elected or appointed, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

As of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there are no legal proceedings, and during the past ten years there have been no legal proceedings, that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of any of our directors, director nominees or executive officers.

Committees of Our Board of Directors

Our board of directors has not established any committees.

We are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors.

We do not currently have a “financial expert” within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The Company has no nominating or compensation committees at this time. The entire Board participates in the nomination and audit oversight processes and considers executive and director compensation. Given the size of the Company and its stage of development, the entire Board is involved in such decision-making processes. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

The Company has not as yet adopted a code of ethics applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 due to our small size and limited resources and because management’s attention has been focused on matters pertaining to raising capital and the operation of the business.

Risk and Compensation Policies

The following table lists, as of March 31, 2025, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by (i) each person, entity or group (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) known to the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each of our Named Executive Officers and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal stockholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using “beneficial ownership” concepts under the rules of the SEC. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person directly or indirectly has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the SEC rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned and each stockholder’s address is c/o Groove Botanicals Inc., 310 Fourth Avenue South, Suite 700, Minneapolis, MN

Groove Botanicals, Inc.

Minneapolis, MN 55415

Opinion on the financial statements

We audited the accompanying balance sheets of Groove Botanicals, Inc. (“the Company”) as of March 31, 2025 and 2024 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for years then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of the liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $35,196,581 for the year ended March 31, 2025. These factors as discussed in Note 3 of the financial statements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis of Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits. we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters arising from the current period of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosure that are material to the financial statements and (2) involve especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Related party transactions.

As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statement, the Company has borrowed from related parties an amount $608,833 as of the date of March 31, 2025. The procedure performed to address the matter included: obtaining confirmation from related party.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

GROOVE BOTANICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 AND 2024

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Current Operations

Groove Botanicals, Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly known as Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc.), was originally incorporated in Colorado on April 25, 1991, under the name Snow Runner (USA), Inc. The Company was the general partner of Snow Runner (USA) Ltd.; a Colorado limited partnership to sell proprietary snow skates under the name “Sled Dogs” which was dissolved in August 1992. In late 1993, the Company relocated its operations to Minnesota and in January 1994 changed our name to Snow Runner, Inc. In November 1994 we changed our name to the Sled Dogs Company. On May 25, 1999, we filed articles of merger with Xdogs.com Inc., changing our state of domicile to Nevada. On June 22, 2005, the Corporation changed our name from XDOGS.com, Inc. to Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc. On May 14, 2018, the Corporation changed our name from Avalon Oil and Gas, Inc., to Groove Botanicals, Inc. Until August 2, 2021, when we filed a 15-12B to suspend duty to file reports under sections 13 and 15(d) of the securities exchange act of 1934, we were a reporting company. Subsequently, on September 14, 2023, we filed a Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective 60 days later.

Since inception we have operated unsuccessfully, in various different industries. Currently, we plan to assemble a portfolio of early-stage EV Battery Technologies developed from Universities in Norway, Sweden and Finland, and seek grants from the State of Minnesota Department of Economic Development to find and identify corporate partners to commercialize these technologies and ultimately produce revenues for the Company. The Company does not currently own any patents or technologies related to the EV battery industry, and the process to acquire patents and technologies can be costly, and as such, the Company is not guaranteed to acquire any such patents.

On July 29, 2024, Mr. Douglas Barton resigned as a director of the Company.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Stated of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for financial information. Accordingly, they include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, were derived from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at that date.

Basis of Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Groove Botanicals, Inc., and its two 100% controlled non-operating subsidiaries formed in Wyoming, Biotrex, Inc., and Maxidyne, Inc. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, related party payables, dividends payable and other debt. The carrying values of the Company's financial instruments approximate fair value. FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820") establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as 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. ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1—Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs; Level 2—Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, related party payables, accrued dividends and debt approximate fair value based on either their short-term nature or on terms currently available to the Company in financial markets.

Net Loss Per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As the Company has continued to report operating losses for the periods covered by this report, the impact of potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive and therefore is not presented.

Income Taxes

The Company is taxed as a C corporation for income tax purposes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company records interest, net of any applicable related income tax benefit, on potential income tax contingencies as a component of income tax expense. The Company records tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return based upon the amount that is more likely than not to be realized or paid, including in connection with the resolution of any related appeals or other legal processes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes liabilities for certain unrecognized tax benefits based on the amounts that are more likely than not to be settled with the relevant taxing authority. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

Recent Accounting Standard Adopted:

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances the disclosures required for reportable segments in annual and interim financial statements, including additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ended March 31, 2025 retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statement. The adoption of this ASU had no impact on reportable segments identified and had no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted:

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09 – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is available. The Company is still evaluating the full extent of the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2023-09, but believes it will not have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, – Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). This ASU requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the statement of operations as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will evaluate the full extent of the adoption of ASU 2024-03, but believes it will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception and has raised limited capital. The Company had a net loss of $130,834 and $202,089 for the years ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, respectively. The Company’s accumulated deficit was $35,196,581and $34,847,277 as of March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company is taking certain steps to provide the necessary capital to continue its operations. These steps include but are not limited to: 1) focus on our new business model and 2) raising equity or debt financing. Our auditors express substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 – CASH

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s cash consisted of non-restricted cash.

NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had related party payables of $608,833 and $453,057 as of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

Convertible notes payable consisted of a $40,000 Convertible Promissory Note issued on March 5, 2021, by management to a third party in exchange for professional services. Beginning on the issuance date of this note, the outstanding principal balance of this note shall bear annual interest at 10%, with interest commencing on the sixth month anniversary of the Issuance Date. The note had a maturity date of June 30, 2022. Additionally, the note has a fixed conversion feature of $0.02 per share, and therefore the Convertible Note is measured at the net of Debt Discount, calculated based off its Beneficial Conversion Features. The note was booked with a debt discount of the full principal balance of $40,000. As of June 30, 2022, this entire debt discount had been amortized. Further, on March 7, 2022, the Company issued an additional convertible promissory note in the amount of $60,000, with a maturity date of March 7, 2023, an annual interest rate of 10% and a fixed conversion price of $0.02 per share, in exchange for consulting services. The convertible amount is accounted for based off the outstanding principal and related interest pertaining to the portion convertible debt instrument being converted, multiplied by the previously specified conversion rate.

On July 18, 2022, a Letter Agreement was drafted between the Company and the debtholder, which establishes the settlement of these debts once the Company’s Form 10 goes effective. On January 23, 2023 the Company and the convertible note holder mutually agreed to settle any and all amounts owed pursuant to 1) the Consulting Agreement and Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $40,000 dated March 5, 2021; and 2) the Consulting Agreement and a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $60,000 dated March 7, 2022; 3) all interest accrued through settlement date, as follows: $10,000.00 to be paid to Hymers upon execution of this Agreement, with an additional payment of $40,000 30 days after GRVE’s Form 10 has gone effective.

$10,000 was paid on January 24, 2023. $40,000 was paid on December 31, 2023. This resulted in a gain on the settlement of debt in the amount of $71,242, including interest forgiven of $21,242, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the balance of the convertible note was $0.
