PART 1

ITEM 1.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Unless otherwise noted, the terms “MetAlert, Inc.”, the “Company”, “MLRT” “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the ongoing business operations of MetAlert, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Global Trek Xploration, Inc., Level 2 Security Products, Inc.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

MetAlert, Inc. (OTC Pinks: MLRT) is a pioneer in location sensitive remote patient health monitoring devices and wearable technology products industry.

MetAlert and its subsidiaries are engaged in designing, developing, manufacturing, distributing, and selling products and services in GPS/BLE wearable technology, personal location, wandering assistive technology, and health data collection and monitoring. The company offers a global end-to-end hardware, software, and connectivity solution, in addition to developing two-way tracking technologies, which seamlessly integrate with consumer products and enterprise applications.

With over 20 years of experience and an extensive patent portfolio with more than twenty-five patents, MetAlert provides solutions for consumers/patients afflicted with Alzheimer, Dementia, and Autism (ADA). This market represents approximately 2.9% of the world’s population (approximately 34 million people in 24 developed countries). Due to specific behaviors (problems with memory, adversity to wearing unknown items, etc.) consumers/patients in this market segment, cannot use products such as an iPhone or Fitbit. This has created a significant market with very few competitors for MetAlert.

Using its award-winning patented GPS SmartSole® as a hub for collecting and transmitting data to the cloud in real-time, MetAlert is expanding its value proposition to consumers and increasing its revenue per user (RPU) while creating the largest database of health statistics for ADA consumers/patients. MetAlert generates revenue from product sales, recurring subscriptions, intellectual property licensing, and professional services. The company has international distributors servicing customers in over 35 countries and is an approved U.S. military government contractor. Customers include public health authorities and municipalities, emergency and law enforcement, private schools, assisted living facilities, NGOs, small business enterprises, senior care homes and consumers.

The Company is headquartered in Los Angeles, California, has a sales office in London, England, and distributors across the globe.

The Company was originally founded in 2002 as Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and, as part of a reverse merger, became publicly traded in 2008 as a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of GTX Corp, a Nevada corporation, under its former name “Deeas Resources Inc.” During the periods covered by this report, MetAlert, Inc. and its subsidiaries were engaged in business operations that design, manufacture and sell various interrelated and complementary products and services in the wearable technology, security and Personal Location Services marketplace. In September of 2023, we acquired Level 2 Security, LLC and merged it into a new 100% wholly owned subsidiary Level 2 Security Products, Inc. During that period, the operations of LOCiMobile, Inc., another 100% wholly owned subsidiary, was consolidated under Global Trek Xploration and the corporate entity was dissolved. MetAlert now owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its two operating subsidiaries - Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and Level 2 Security Products, Inc. The LOCiMOBILE digital assets are now under the management of the parent company MetAlert and remain there, post dissolution, of the corporate entity (LOCiMobile, Inc.). The Company’s digital platform which has been at the forefront of Smartphone application (“App”) development since 2008 designs mobile applications that turn the iPhone, iPad, Android and other GPS enabled handsets into a tracking device which can then be tracked from any mobile device or through our proprietary tracking portal or on any connected device with internet access.

Global Trek Xploration, Inc. is a wearable technology company which designs, manufactures, sells, and distributes tracking and remote patient monitoring solutions for humans. Utilizing patent protected proprietary hardware, software, connectivity, Global Positioning System (“GPS”) and Bluetooth Low Energy (“BLE”) monitoring and tracking platform, which provides real-time tracking and monitoring of people. Utilizing a miniature quad-band GPRS transceiver, antenna, circuitry, battery and inductive charging pad our solutions can be customized and integrated into numerous products whose location and movement can be monitored in real time over the Internet through our 24x7 tracking portal or on a web enabled cellular telephone. Our core products and services are supported by an IP portfolio of patents, patents pending, registered trademarks, copyrights, URL’s and a library of software source code, all of which is managed by Global Trek.

MetAlert’s flagship product is its award-winning, patented GPS SmartSole® tracking and monitoring solution, which is the world’s first invisible wearable technology GPS tracking device created for those at risk of wandering due to Alzheimer’s, dementia, autism, and traumatic brain injury. The GPS SmartSole is reimbursable through Medicaid or various insurance providers and government agencies in some U.S. States, Canada, Norway, and the UK.

We answer the “where is” question: such as, where is my mother, child, employee, soldier, pet, drone, artwork, or other high value assets, through our proprietary IoT (“Internet of Things”) enterprise platform.

Level 2 Security Products, Inc., our newly acquired subsidiary, is in the high value non-human asset monitoring and recovery business for items such as firearms, vehicles, bikes, boats, ATVs, and a host of other valuable mobile assets which require oversight monitoring and theft recovery.

BUSINESS UNITS

1)	Human Tracking and Monitoring Technology - Our SmartSole line of wearable footwear technology is designed for people with cognitive memory disorders, such as Alzheimer’s, dementia, autism, and traumatic brain injury (“TBI”). Approximately 9 million people in the U.S. and over 100 million worldwide expected to reach 277 million by 2050 fall under this umbrella of people with cognitive disorders. Typically, these people tend to wander and require some wander guard technology and remote oversight. The SmartSoles are comfortable orthotic insoles embedded with a GPS and cellular tracking module, so that a caregiver can know in real time where a loved one is at the touch of a button from any smartphone or computer. The Company also leverages its technology platform for use in high value asset tracking such as drones, small light weight cargo, and other high value mobile assets that require a robust, small footprint and low power consumption hardware and software platform. MetAlert has been working on expanding this unit to include Short Range and Logistics tracking, utilizing BLE and NFC technology for tracking valuable assets across the supply chain, such as expensive clothing, wines, foods, or pharmaceuticals. BLE - Bluetooth Low Energy and NFC – Near Field Communication are a short-range wireless protocol that triggers data exchange from one device to another. The chip is about the size of a nickel and can be attached, embedded, sewn, glued, embroidered, and even ironed on or otherwise affixed to just about any person or product, including print materials, packaging, and wearables.

2)	Asset Monitoring and Theft Recovery – In 2023 the Company expanded its product line into the high value non-human asset monitoring and recovery business for items such as firearms, vehicles, bikes, boats, ATVs, and a host of other valuable mobile assets which require oversight monitoring and theft recovery.

3)	IP and Technology licensing- many of our patents were issued over the past 10 years and we continue to add new patents to our portfolio, and as GPS and wearable technology becomes more ubiquitous and used in numerous products, the MetAlert intellectual property portfolio is garnering interest within the tech community. MetAlert is currently engaged in a licensing and monetization campaign. Over 150 companies that could potentially license some or all our IP have been identified and so far, the Company has signed 14 licensing agreements and generated over $1 million dollars in license fees.

4)	Medical Supplies – In 2020 the Company expanded its product line from medical devices to high quality Health & Safety protective equipment and supplies, ranging from hearing assisted technology to masks, sanitizing equipment, UV sterilization equipment, and rapid test kits. With many of its products made or sourced in the U.S. This business unit was significant during Covid, however moving forward we will adjust the unit size to account for market conditions and market demands.

CORPORATE STRATEGY

Management’s corporate strategy is to continue to build and grow MetAlert as a health & safety medical and wearable technology company that provides turnkey solutions for the consumer, enterprise, and government. Most of the MetAlert tracking and monitoring products are sold with a monthly, quarterly, or annual subscription service plan or licensing fees ranging from $2.00 to $35.00, per month per monitored asset. In addition to product sales and recurring subscription fees, the Company also generates revenues through software and IP licensing. Many of our patents have filing dates going back to 2004, 2005 and 2006, have ongoing open continuations, with many of patent claims being used in the marketplace today, providing an opportunity for the Company to license its IP to other technology companies. Part of our strategy is to identify new companies or existing companies that launch new products that are a potential licensee candidate.

As part of our long-term growth strategy, we are focused on launching new medical and tracking wearable products, either internally developed or acquired through licensing, that stand alone or can be part of our SmartSole platform that help grow our subscriber base or increase our average revenue per subscriber. New product development can lead to new IP, hence strengthening our IP portfolio creating additional licensing opportunities. Collectively this approach feeds on one another whereby we can build steady recurring revenue streams. Launching new products, new vertical sales channels and building out our patent portfolio are the key drivers for growth. The more products we develop and sell, the more subscribers we bring onboard. And, as our patent portfolio grows and evolves, so do our licensing opportunities. To date we have built a network of strategic global partners, a robust technology platform of proprietary hardware and software and a growing intellectual property (IP) portfolio. The MetAlert product lines of embedded smart wearable GPS devices, Stand-Alone GPS devices, Asset and Theft Recovery devices, Digital Apps, BLE/NFC solution, encrypted RF military personnel and asset tracking solutions and protective medical supplies and devices are sold direct to the consumer (“B2C”), to the enterprise business to business (“B2B”), and to local, state, federal and international government agencies , through our network of resellers, affiliates, distributors, non-profit organizations, military and police departments, manufacturers reps and retailers. The Company has been ramping up its product distribution and sales channels and, as of December 31, 2023, the Company had live units in the field and / or paying subscribers in over 40 countries, with customers and distributors in Canada, Mexico, Europe, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. In the U.S. the Company sells direct to the consumer through its online ecommerce platform, a host of retailers and resellers along with hundreds of online affiliates. The Company also manages direct B2B enterprise and government sales through its business development team and advisors. The B2B initiatives comprise of supporting existing distributors along with bringing on new distributors, working with U.S. and Foreign agencies, to support existing business and secure new business, and domestically to work with local, state, and federal agencies to acquire reimbursement codes for its line of SmartSoles. To date, MetAlert has been issued a vendor number for reimbursement in 11 U.S. states and internationally in Canada, Norway, Sweden and in the U.K. the National Health Services (“NHS”) began conducting regional pilots for the wander assistive GPS SmartSoles, in urban centers with high populations of seniors afflicted with dementia. Under these reimbursement programs, the SmartSoles are either partially (50% to 60%) or sometimes up to (100% including the monthly subscriptions) paid for or subsidized by the local, state, or federal grants or through insurance reimbursement. As additional resources become available, we plan to apply for new grants and private insurance reimbursement along with other health and municipal services both domestically and in other countries. Where granted, the subsidies lower the cost of buying and owning our tracking products, which can result in an increase in customers and revenues.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Smart wearable technology is becoming ubiquitous, and it is starting to find its way into all parts of the global society. Miniature electronic devices that are worn by a person, commonly referred to as wearables, are continuing a strong upward trajectory evident by the likes of Nike, Garmin, Google, Samsung, Apple, Verizon and a host of other fortune 100 companies that have entered into this space. Wearable Technology is on the rise in personal fitness, wellness, healthcare, and business use. CCS Insight (a provider of market information, data analysis and market intelligence) recently updated its outlook on the future of wearable tech, indicating that 411 million smart wearable devices, worth a staggering $34 billion, were be sold in 2020.

Location-Based Services (LBS) and Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS), published by Markets and Markets, are expected to grow from USD 16.0 billion in 2019 to USD 40.0 billion by 2024, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (“CAGR”) of 20.1%. This growth will be fueled because it is now possible for a network of physical objects (humans, vehicles, buildings, infrastructure, equipment of all shapes and types) to collect and exchange data and to communicate and work together. This enables devices, sensors and systems to operate autonomously in pursuit of goals and objectives set by the human architects of the system. We believe that accurately identifying the location of a person or assets in real time will be a key driver in many applications for the consumer, enterprise, and government sectors.

The Caregiving Innovation Frontiers (“CIF”) study by the Longevity Network, used analysis and research from Parks Associates found that an estimated 117 million Americans will need assistance of some kind by 2022, but the number of unpaid caregivers is only expected to reach 45 million in the same year. This demand represents a $279 billion revenue opportunity over the coming years across six different business areas identified in the study, with 80% of spending being out-of-pocket costs. Technology solutions and remote health monitoring systems that enable family caregivers to monitor the location of elderly persons could provide key relief, according to the report. The CIF report outlined six areas for business opportunities, with huge potential for revenue grabs. Technology represents an opportunity across all the service areas, according to the Association of American Retired Persons (AARP). Most family caregivers (67% of them) want to use technology to monitor their loved one’s health and safety, but only about 10% are doing so right now, leaving a lot of room for growth.

In our ever-mobile society, it helps to know where we are and where we are going. Same with caregivers of seniors suffering from Alzheimer’s and dementia, freight forwarding companies wanting to know where their packages are, and employers wanting to know where their field workers are. Many parents desire to have the ability to know where their children are and where they are going. Having such information is now possible with access to real-time information delivered on-demand through miniaturized, low power consumption locator systems and technologies such as ours. The same logic applies for high value assets, and specifically in the world of gun safety. Whereby, there is estimated to be over 400 million firearms in the U.S. and a concentrated effort by lawmakers, federal government and local agencies and consumers at large to implement reasonable and sensible gun safety solutions.

The rising need for real-time location systems (RTLS) and wearable location-based services (LBS) is influenced by several factors, among them:

	●	Universal awareness and expanding penetration of GPS enabled mobile smartphones & tablets (estimated 2 billion devices).
	●	Personal and asset security concerns affecting a greater portion of the population. This includes the increased awareness related to global terrorism, active shootings, natural disasters, and general unrest.
	●	Increasing numbers of elderly or memory impaired (Alzheimer’s, dementia, autism, etc. approximately 9 million in U.S. and according to the World Health Organization who estimates that Alzheimer’s will reach 135 million worldwide by 2050).
	●	Corporations needing to manage worker productivity, efficiency, and logistics.
	●	Government agencies, law enforcement and military need to track personnel and assets.
	●	Massive lifestyle adoption of location-based advertising and social networking.

MetAlert’s management believes that more and more consumers, enterprises, and government agencies are realizing the importance of using tracking and monitoring information technology. The technology growth story has long focused on the consumer, but as enterprises in every industry sector, including the government sector, look to technology to facilitate and transform their own operations, the opportunities for technology companies have broadened considerably. The following information illustrates the ways in which various tech markets are expected to grow.

The LBS and RTLS market have grown considerably over the past few years and is expected to grow further with increasing portable personal digital assistant (“PDA”) based e-commerce. The overall market is expected to grow from $15.04 billion in 2016 to $77.84 billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 38.9 %.

The portfolio addresses three core areas: Footwear, Communication and International coverage and as of December 31, 2023, we had twenty-three (23) patents and several trademark registrations. These include eighteen (18) issued U.S. utility patents, three of which are insole patents, two (2) issued U.S. design patents, and two (2) other pending U.S. utility patent applications and (1) U.S. gun tracking patent. We also have two (2) issued Mexican utility patents and one (1) issued European foreign national patent application based on our U.S. filings. In addition to the five (5) comm protocol’s (program-to-program communications access methods), which falls under MetAlert U.S. Patent 8,760,286, commonly referred to as the 286 MetAlert patent family, MetAlert also has several patents on the device side. The international multi- pronged IP protection approach is part of the overall intellectual property strategy protecting all aspects of the MetAlert enterprise and value of its hardware and platform.

MetAlert also has under license one (1) U.S. patent and twelve (12) foreign patents. Included under the IP portfolio MetAlert has U.S. trademark registrations including, but not limited to, registrations for the marks “LOCi” and “LOCIMOBILE.” In addition, another U.S. trademark application for “GPS SMART SOLE SATELLITE MONITORING AND REALTIME TRACKING”, “GTX CORP”, “WITH YOU” “GUNALERT”, and “IF IT MOVES…”.

TECHNOLOGY

MetAlert Inc. has developed a “carrier-class” architecture and no longer needs to host the servers in a facility Data Center. Throughout 2020 most of our servers were migrated to the cloud which enables cost-efficient expansion, without the need for application code changes.

Our current location tracking product design utilizes quad-band GSM/GPRS telephony chip sets and can be adapted to the prevalent GSM/GPRS wireless technologies. Our modules utilize advanced “weak signal server-enhanced” technology which provide rapid location identification. Each module is programmed with a unique identification number and uses standard cellular frequencies to communicate its location. The module is also programmed with a unique subscriber identification number allowing each owner to subscribe to different services.

We continue to modify and upgrade our modules for our SmartSoles and other GPS tracking products. The production and roll-out of version 4G of our SmartSole product we will no longer have to be custom make SmartSoles for our international distributors, so our manufacturing cost and timelines are reduced, and we have more flexibility to timely meet our customers’ requirements. Also, we now can bill for data charges in over 100 countries, thereby increasing our potential markets. The ability to produce a product that can be delivered to foreign market without customization and to bill for data charges in additional countries will enable us to increase our RPS (revenue per subscriber). Our core tracking products (SmartSole, Take-Along-Tracker, OEM modules and Track my Work Force App) are supported by the existing infrastructure for the worldwide cell network that provides coverage throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and numerous other countries that operate on the global GSM Wireless networks. Our personal locator modules have the ability to operate on the networks of 290 carriers in over 210 countries.

STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS & LICENSING

We offer location-based hardware and/or IoT data monitoring platform to third parties for the sale and distribution of location-based products/services in various vertical markets. We begin the process by entering into a platform test agreement or pilot program with a potential partner with the intent to transition into a long-term relationship. By establishing and building partnerships, through licensing agreements, OEM, and carrier relationships, we facilitate efficient entry into new markets leveraging each third parties core competencies. We enhance the value of our distribution channels by aligning our sales and marketing efforts with strategic partners, including co-branding, distribution and marketing with telecommunication companies, wireless carriers, national retailers and major consumer branded companies. We can customize our products into different form factors for the specific needs of customers. To date, the Company has created custom solutions for the monitoring of seniors with cognitive memory disorders by installing the GPS device into specially designed shoes and insoles; the monitoring of children by installing the GPS device into specially designed toys, belts, insoles and backpacks; and the monitoring of various high value assets such as drones, long guns and other mobile assets.

The Company has several key strategic relationships established both on the supply side and the distribution side. Some of the key partners on the supply side are Atlantic Footcare (which manufactures our SmartSoles), Spline (our engineering firm), Nordic (which manufactures our GPS and Cellular electronics) and Telefonica (which provides our global connectivity). On the distribution side, we have numerous partnerships worldwide, ranging from distributors, health organizations, and retailers.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

As an emerging tech company our long-term growth is predicated on making investments in R&D and Intellectual Property. This year we took the opportunity to invest in our future, by ramping up NFC, BLE and 4G development projects. We are integrating our NFC tags with Blockchain technology and started developing a secured, scalable middleware layer that sits in-between our NFC devices and third-party backend platforms. We started working with several partners that provide various vertical specific Block chain, IoT and AI backend platforms but needed a secure and seamless flow of data from hardware to backend. This middleware lawyer is industry agnostic and is designed to help drive NFC hardware business and other IoT device sales. We also continued testing our Near Field Communication (NFC) Temperature Trackers, which provide real-time temperature sensing and data logging across the supply chain necessary with transportation of perishables; food, drinks, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature sensitive products that can be negatively affected by conditions in transit. This is still a new business silo that has not begun generating revenue, but we see this new technology as a natural extension into the world of asset tracking, taking us beyond humans to tracking and monitoring of perishable shipments of food, beverages, biopharmaceuticals, live organs and many other temperature sensitive shipments. In addition to temperature sensing we are now looking into NFC tags that can authenticate products, addressing the multibillion dollar worldwide counterfeit market.

GROWTH STRATEGY

We have developed a multi-prong business model approach; business-to-business (B2B), business-to-consumer (B2C), Government and Military sales, and licensing of our technology and IP. We have successfully proven out all our models in a small scale. With B2C, we continue to invest in e-commerce and once we can hit critical mass with lower pricing, we will expand into the mass consumer markets. With B2B our strategy is to establish more partners and relationships with key industry leaders who will embed our technology into their products to sell to their established customer base. In addition, we plan to continue working with the Military both in the U.S. and abroad. Lastly, we plan to continue to identify companies that can license our IP. This approach requires time and capital to grow, however it is also diversified so that all our eggs are not in one basket and once scaled can show rapid growth. As a growing underfinanced company, we have managed to prove out our business models and now need to scale. Management believes that once we have the resources to scale any of these models or all of them, we can expect to see steady and sustainable growth. We are still looking to raising capital to meet our growth strategies through an Offering Statement on Form 1-A, filed on August 7, 2023, and qualified on August 14, 2023 (the “Reg A”), and the Reg A may require updating once the 10K is filed.

Key elements of our growth strategy include:

	●	Providing our Personal Locator hardware module to licensees to empower their products with our two-way GPS tracking capabilities;
	●	Become eligible for federal grant funding for gun safety solutions;
	●	OEM private label manufacturing;
	●	A mass market retail price under $99.00 for Personal Location devices;
	●	A monthly service fee structure, under $20.00;
	●	Reduction in hardware size and cost in order to open new markets;
	●	Continue expanding our medical reimbursement programs;
	●	Rolling out bio metrics and NFC;
	●	Expanding distribution channels;
	●	Increasing the number of solutions for the military and law enforcement markets;
	●	Ease of use at the location interface point as well as with the device, using state-of-the-art cloud computing and cloud application development and;
	●	Expanding our IP monetization campaign.

COMPETITION

Personal location and asset tracking devices of various kinds are currently available from numerous vendors, and the number of competitive products is increasing rapidly in the marketplace. Furthermore, many of the location products and services are available at no cost to the user or are already included in other products. Nevertheless, we believe this rapidly growing market acceptance of the tracking solutions that we offer represents an opportunity as the intrinsic value of the tracking solutions is recognized and mass market adoption continues. The key competitive advantage for MetAlert in its lead SmartSole product is our innovative approach to embedding electronics inside a flexible footwear system, which advantage is protected by an extensive patent portfolio and first to market. Another key competitive advantage is our large and growing patent portfolio along with our ability, because we are a small company, to be agile and responsive while still having deep and long industry knowledge of the GPS space.

Key differentiators between ourselves and the competition is:

B2B:

	●	Providing a comprehensive fully integrated, patented end-to-end solution comprised of hardware, software, and global connectivity, that can be embedded or OEM into other companies’ product lines.
	●	Being small and nimble we can provide faster turnaround times and lower pricing, which has been a key advantage in our military business.

B2C:

	●	Our BLE & GPS SmartSole is the only patented, non-visible, non-intrusive tracking and monitoring solution.
	●	Our GunAlert is the only patented, lockable, motion sensor gun safety solution on the market.

There are numerous competitors for GPS products in general, and for our smart phone applications, including Location Based Technologies, Inc., Google Latitude, Foursquare, Trimble Navigation, Inc., Brick House Security, Verizon, and Trackimo, Inc. Many of our competitors are better financed than we are and/or have greater marketing and scientific resources than we can provide. We are also aware of a number of domestic and foreign competitors that offer much lower quality products in order to gain market share. The U.S. Government systems integration business is intensely competitive and subject to rapid change due to new requirements and budget allocation. We compete with many military suppliers and other large and diverse companies attempting to enter or expand their presence in the U.S. Government market. Many of the existing and potential competitors have greater financial, operating, and technological resources than we have. The competitive environment may require us to make changes in our pricing, services, or marketing. The competitive bidding process involves substantial costs and a number of risks, including significant cost and managerial time to prepare bids and proposals for contracts that may not be awarded to us, or that may be awarded, but for which we do not receive meaningful revenues. Accordingly, our success depends on our ability to develop services and products that address changing needs and to provide people and technology needed to deliver these services and products. In the government services sector, our competition includes large systems integrators and defense contractors. Some of these competitors include global defense and IT service companies such as, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon. However so far being small and nibble along with our ability to deliver product and services, quickly, at a fair market price and customize products on demand, have been to our advantage, over many larger competitors.

EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had nine full-time and part-time employees along with three consultants and two commission-based sales personnel. Any selling, marketing, technical, IT and/or software development work that is not handled by our employees, advisors, or sales personnel, is outsourced to qualified contractors and consultants. The Company has over a dozen active outside consultants and contractors which are hired on an as needed basis.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations applied to businesses generally as well as FCC, IC and CE wireless device regulations and controls. We believe that we are in conformity with all applicable laws in all relevant jurisdictions. We do not believe that our operations are subject to any environmental laws and regulations of the United States nor the states in which they operate.

Because our SmartSoles are sold globally, our certification’s not only cover domestic regulations and controls but the international regulations and controls required under FCC, RED, CE and IC certifications.

ITEM 1A:

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Any potential investor should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before purchasing any shares of our common stock. The risks described below are those we currently believe may materially affect us. If any of them occur, our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flow could be materially harmed. As a result, the trading price of our stock could decline, and you might lose all or part of your investment. Our business, financial condition and operating results, or the value of any investment you make in the stock of our company, or both, could be adversely affected by any of the factors listed and described below. These risks and uncertainties, however, are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently think are immaterial, may also impair our business operations or the value of your investment.

Forward-Looking Statements

We make forward-looking statements in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this report based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management and on information currently available to us. Forward-looking statements include information about our possible or assumed future results of operations, which follow under the headings “Business”, “Liquidity and Capital Resource”, and other statements throughout this report preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “estimates” or similar expressions.

Any number of risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those we express in our forward-looking statements, including the risks and uncertainties we describe below and other factors we describe from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC. We therefore caution you not to rely unduly on any forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements in this report speak only as of the date of this report, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise.

RISKS RELATED TO CLIMATE

We may suffer climate related risks in the future

The industry-led Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) establishes recommendations for disclosing clear, comparable and consistent information about the risks and opportunities presented by climate change. It is expected to help companies better demonstrate responsibility and foresight in how they consider climate change issues, make smarter, more efficient allocations of capital and facilitate the transition towards a more sustainable, low-carbon economy.

MetAlert Corp believes that decision-useful climate-related information in mainstream reports is needed more than ever. The TCFD recommendations fit well into our commitment to conduct business in a financially, environmentally and socially responsible way. We believe the TCFD recommendations will assure investors that MetAlert Corp takes climate change seriously and works proactively to understand the risks and opportunities to our business related to climate change.

We will take a step-wise approach to incorporate climate-related disclosures as per the TCFD recommendations into our Annual Report; Below is a summary of how MetAlert Corp addresses the risks related to climate change.

All our decisions are driven by the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) business principle: a commitment to do business in a way that is financially, environmentally, and socially responsibility.

Our risk management process is governed by our Executive Management and is designed to ensure that key business risks are effectively identified, assessed, and mitigated so that they do not affect the company’s ability to achieve its business objectives.

Climate-related risks are identified and assessed through the risk management system. So far, neither the short-term nor the medium-term risk of climate change at company level has been material/critical in terms of potential direct impacts. The risks have therefore been identified, assessed and mitigated through individual departments or business units.

For the upstream production and sourcing of components MetAlert Corp performs an annual risk assessment of all active direct spend items and vendor combinations on the approved supplier list. The assessment includes likelihood of disruption paired with financial implications. The risk assessment serves to provide input for risk mitigation in sourcing categories, and consequently prioritize actions to prevent or minimize the impact of supply disruptions on manufacturing. The assessment includes a natural hazards risk rating of supplier locations, provided by external insurance companies. The risk rating is related to various parameters, including flooding, earthquake, wind speed, tornado, hailstorm, and lightning.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We will need additional funding in the near future to continue our current level of operations and growth.

As of December 31, 2024, we had a working capital deficit of $4,280,987 and an accumulated deficit of $29,574,894. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2024, we had a loss of $828,265. Revenues generated from our current operations are not sufficient to pay our on-going operating expenses. In addition to product and services sales, our working capital needs in 2024 were partially funded by the sale of $290,000 in debt, and the sale of preferred D shares for $200,000. Therefore, we continue to obtain additional funding from the sale of our securities or from strategic transactions in order to fund our current level of operations.

Aside from continuing these loan transactions, we have not identified the sources for additional financing that we may require, and we do not have commitments from third parties to continue to provide this financing. Being a micro-cap stock, certain investors may be unwilling to invest in our securities. There is no assurance that sufficient funding through a financing will be available to us at acceptable terms or at all. Historically, we have raised capital through the issuance of convertible debt securities or straight equity securities. However, given the risks associated with our business, the risks associated with our common stock, the worldwide financial uncertainty that has affected the capital markets, and our status as a small, unknown public company, we expect in the near future, we will have difficulty raising capital through traditional financing sources. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to raise capital, or if we are able to raise capital, that such capital will be in the amounts needed. Our failure to raise capital, when needed, and in sufficient amounts, will severely impact our ability to continue to develop our business as planned. In addition, if we are unable to obtain funding as, and when needed, we may have to further reduce and/or cease our future operations. Any additional funding that we obtain in an equity or convertible debt financing is likely to reduce the percentage ownership of the company held by our existing security holders.

Based on the above factors, our auditors have concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

There is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred net losses of $828,265 and $1,190,158 for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively, has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $29,574,894 as of December 31, 2024, and has negative working capital of $4,280,987 as of December 31, 2024. A significant part of our negative working capital position on December 31, 2024, consisted of $1,832,893, of amounts due to various accredited investors of the Company for convertible promissory notes, loans and a letter of credit, as well as the current portion of $18,056 in CARE loans. The Company anticipates further losses in the development of its business.

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of debt or equity is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, or its attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

We have had operating losses since formation and expect to continue to incur net losses for the near term.

We currently have a working capital deficit and our current and projected revenues are not sufficient to fund our anticipated operating needs. We have reported net losses of $828,265 and $1,190,158 for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. While we anticipate that revenues will increase in 2025, unless our sales increase substantially in the near future, we will continue to incur net losses in the near term, and we may never be able to achieve profitability. In order to achieve profitable operations, we need to significantly increase our revenues from the sales of product, subscriptions and licensing fees. We cannot be certain that our business will ever be successful or that we will generate significant revenues and become profitable. As a result, an investment in our company is highly speculative and no assurance can be given that our business model will be successful and, therefore, that our stockholders will realize any return on their investment or that they will not lose their entire investment.

Our current sources of funding are limited, and any additional funding that we may obtain may be on unfavorable terms and may significantly dilute our existing shareholders.

We have not identified sources to fund our current and proposed operating activities. The amount of revenues that we currently generate is not sufficient to fund our operating expenses. As a result, unless and until our revenues increase significantly in the near future, we will have to obtain additional public or private equity financings or debt financings in order to continue our operations. Any additional funding that we obtain in a financing is likely to reduce the percentage ownership of the Company held by our existing security-holders. The amount of this dilution may be substantial based on our current stock price, and could increase if the trading price of our common stock declines at the time of any financing from its current levels. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience further dilution. If we raise funds through debt financings, we may become subject to restrictive covenants. We may also attempt to raise funds through corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional funds through such means, we may be required to relinquish some rights to our technologies or products, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the needed additional funding, we will have to reduce or even totally discontinue our operations, which would have a significant negative impact on our stockholders and could result in a total loss of their investment in our stock.

Our future capital requirements, and our currently projected operating and liquidity requirements, will depend on many factors, including:

	●	The ramping and scaling of the GPS SmartSole^®and BLE SmartSole;

	●	Supporting growth with advertising and marketing;

	●	Our ongoing general and administrative expenses related to our being a reporting company;

	●	The cost of developing and improving our products and technologies thru R&D to stay competitive; and

	●	The maintenance and the ongoing development of our IP portfolio.

Funding, especially on terms acceptable to us, may not be available to meet our future capital needs because of the state of the credit and capital markets. Global market and economic conditions have been, and continue to be, disruptive and volatile. The cost of raising money in the debt and equity capital markets for smaller companies like ours has increased substantially while the availability of funds from those markets has diminished significantly. Also, low valuations and decreased appetite for equity investments, among other factors, may make the equity markets difficult to access on acceptable terms or unavailable altogether.

If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, scale-back or eliminate our product enhancement and new product development programs. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all, if and when required.

Our projected revenues in 2025 rely on the scaling of the our new 4G LTE GPS SmartSole^® and the introduction of the Gun Alert product to local state and federal government agencies, adding subscribers, increasing our military business, growing our OEM and IP monetization business, and continuing the sales of related medical, health and wellness products and supplies.

Our revenue projections for 2024 assumed that the revenues we generate from the SmartSole, including subscriptions will increase from the amount generated in 2023 and that our other business units will grow accordingly. However, we cannot predict the future and continued market acceptance of the SmartSole and new Gun Alerts product lines. Accordingly, it is uncertain whether our revenues will equal our internally projected levels. Failure to reach our target revenue levels will materially, and adversely, affect our financial condition.

With the acquisition of Level 2 Security, LLC, and their Gun Alert product, in the 3rd quarter of 2023, we expect that this product line will help us grow in 2025.

The nature of our business is speculative and dependent on a number of variables beyond our control that cannot be reliably ascertained in advance.

The revenues and profits of an enterprise involved in the location based business are generally dependent upon many variables. Our customer appeal depends upon factors which cannot be reliably ascertained in advance and over which we have no control, such as unpredictable customer and media reviews, industry analyst commentaries, and comparisons to competitive products. As with any relatively new business enterprise operating in a specialized and intensely competitive market, we are subject to many business risks which include, but are not limited to, unforeseen marketing difficulties, excessive research and development expenses, unforeseen negative publicity, competition, product liability issues, manufacturing and logistical difficulties, and lack of operating experience. Many of the risks may be unforeseeable or beyond our control. There can be no assurance that we will successfully implement our business plan in a timely or effective manner, that we will be able to generate sufficient interest in our products, or that we will be able to market and sell enough products and services to generate sufficient revenues to continue as a going concern.

Our wireless location products and technologies have to continuously evolve and respond to market changes. If we are unable to commercially release products that are accepted in the market or that generate significant revenues, our financial results will continue to suffer.

Wireless technology is rapidly changing, as are the products that our customers are demanding. In order to be able to provide our customers with the products and services that they desire, we too must continuously develop and offer new and improved products and services. We have attempted to adjust our product offerings to address changing market conditions by offering products such as proprietary GPS enabled transport containers, footwear location products, and a variety of smartphone location Apps, secure backpacks, etc. These products have met with short-term or limited commercial success, and there can be no assurances that consumer or commercial demand for our future products will meet, or even approach, our expectations. In addition, our pricing and marketing strategies may not be successful. Lack of customer demand, a change in marketing strategy and changes to our pricing models could dramatically alter our financial results. Unless we are able to release location based products that meet a significant market demand, we will not be able to improve our financial condition or the results of our future operations.

In order for our products to be successful, we need to establish market recognition quickly, following the introduction of our products.

We believe it is imperative to our success that we obtain significant market recognition to compete in our various markets. Accordingly, it is important that we establish market recognition for our brands in order to be able to continue to be a material participant in the large markets that we are addressing. To date, we have utilized various marketing and free media exposure with our international distributors to build market recognition for our products. However, because of our lack of funding and limited resources, our ability to quickly establish our brands may be severely hampered.

We may encounter manufacturing or assembly problems for our products, which would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

To date, we have only manufactured a limited number of products. In addition, we are continually redesigning and enhancing our products and we are designing new products based on that technology that we hope to manufacture and market in the near future. The manufacture and assembly of our products involves complex and precise processes, some of which have subcontracted to other companies and consultants. To date, we have experienced some quality issues with the limited production of some of our initial products. Although we continue to address these issues, we have only manufactured a limited quantity of products and so we do not yet know whether we will encounter any serious problems in the production of larger quantities of our existing or new products. Any significant problems in manufacturing, assembling or testing our products could delay the sales of our products and have an adverse impact on our business and prospects. The willingness of manufacturers to make the product, or lack of availability of manufacturing capacity, may have an adverse impact on the availability of our products and on our ability to sell our products. Manufacturing difficulties will harm our ability to compete and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition, and may hinder our ability to grow our business as we expect.

We primarily depend upon two manufacturers for the components of our SmartSole and if we encounter problems with these manufacturers there is no assurance that we could obtain products from other manufacturers without significant disruptions to our business.

The principal components and subassemblies of our products are currently manufactured for us by two manufacturers, one in the U.S. and the other an OEM licensed manufacturer in Europe. Although we could arrange for other manufacturers to supply these components and subassemblies, there is no assurance that we could do so without undue cost, expense and delay. If our manufacturers are unable to provide us with adequate supplies of high-quality components on a timely and cost-efficient basis, our operations will be disrupted and our net revenue and profitability will suffer. Moreover, if those manufacturers cannot consistently produce high-quality products that are free of defects, we may experience a high rate of product returns, which would also reduce our profitability and may harm our reputation and brand. Although we believe that we could locate alternate contract manufacturers, our operations would be impacted until alternate manufacturers are found.

Our markets are highly competitive, and our failure to compete successfully would limit our ability to sell our products, attract and retain customers and grow our business.

Our markets are highly competitive, and we expect that both direct and indirect competition will increase in the future. Within each of our markets, we encounter direct competition from various larger U.S. and non-U.S. competitors. The adoption of new technology in the communications industry likely will intensify the competition for improved wireless location technologies. The wireless location services market has historically been dominated by large companies, such as Siemens AG, AT&T and Assa Abloy. In addition, a number of other companies such as Trimble Navigation, Zoomback, Verizon, FireFly, Disney, Mattel, Digital Angel Corporation, Location-Based Technologies, Inc. and WebTech Wireless Inc. either have announced plans for new products or have commenced selling products that are similar to our wireless location products, and new competitors are emerging both in the U.S. and abroad to compete with our wireless location services products. Due to the rapidly evolving markets in which we compete, additional competitors with significant market presence and financial resources may enter those markets, thereby further intensifying competition, adversely affecting our sales, and adversely affecting our business and prospects.

We may not be successful in developing our new products and services.

The market for telecommunications-based products and services is characterized by rapid technological change, changing customer needs, frequent new product introductions and evolving industry standards. These market characteristics are exacerbated by the emerging nature of this market and the fact that many companies are expected to continually introduce new and innovative products and services. Our success will depend partially on our ability to introduce new products, services, and technologies continually and on a timely basis and to continue to improve the performance, features and reliability of our products and services in response to both evolving demands of prospective customers and competitive products. There can be no assurance that any of our new or proposed products or services will maintain the limited market acceptance that we have to date established. Our failure to design, develop, test, market and introduce new and enhanced products, technologies and services successfully so as to achieve market acceptance could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition.

There can be no assurance that we will not experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction, or marketing of new or enhanced products and services, or that our new products and services will adequately satisfy the requirements of prospective customers and achieve significant acceptance by those customers. Because of certain market characteristics, including technological change, changing customer needs, frequent new product and service introductions and evolving industry standards, the continued introduction of new products and services is critical. Delays in the introduction of new products and services may result in customer dissatisfaction and may delay or cause a loss of revenue. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing new products or services or improving existing products and services that respond to technological changes or evolving industry standards.

In addition, new or enhanced products and services introduced by us may contain undetected errors that require significant design modifications. This could result in a loss of customer confidence which could adversely affect the use of our products, which in turn, could have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our software products are complex and may contain unknown defects that could result in numerous adverse consequences, resulting in costly litigation or diverting management’s attention and resources.

Complex software products such as those associated with our products often contain latent errors or defects, particularly when first introduced, or when new versions or enhancements are released. We have experienced and addressed errors and defects in the software associated with our products, but do not believe these errors will have a material negative effect in the future on the functionality of the products. However, there can be no assurance that, despite testing, additional defects and errors will not be found in the current version, or in any new versions or enhancements of this software or any of our products, any of which could result in damage to our reputation, the loss of sales, a diversion of our product development resources, and/or a delay in market acceptance, and thereby materially adversely affecting our business, operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our products will meet all of the expectations and demands of our customers. The failure of our products to perform to customer expectations could give rise to warranty claims. Any of these claims, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation or divert management’s attention and resources. Any product liability insurance that we may carry could be insufficient to protect us from all liability that may be imposed under any asserted claims.

If we are not able to take advantage of developments in technology and address changing consumer demand on a timely basis, we may experience a decline in the demand for our services, be unable to implement our business strategy and experience reduced profits.

Our industries are rapidly changing as new technologies are developed that offer consumers an array of choices for their location-based needs and allow new entrants into the markets we serve. In order to grow and remain competitive, we will need to adapt to future changes in technology, enhance our existing offerings and introduce new offerings to address our customers’ changing demands. If we are unable to meet future challenges from competing technologies on a timely basis or at an acceptable cost, we could lose customers to our competitors. We may not be able to accurately predict technological trends or the success of new services in the market.

The deployment of our 4G network is subject to a variety of risks, though less due to its maturing proliferation, including those related to equipment and spectrum availability, unexpected costs, and regulatory permitting requirements that could cause deployment delays or network performance issues. These issues could result in significant costs or reduce the anticipated benefits of the enhancements to our products. If our services fail to gain acceptance in the marketplace, or if costs associated with the implementation and introduction of these services materially increase, our ability to retain and attract customers could be adversely affected.

In addition to introducing new offerings and technologies, we must phase out outdated and unprofitable technologies and services. If we are unable to do so on a cost-effective basis, we could experience reduced profits. In addition, there could be legal or regulatory restraints on our ability to phase out current services.

However, in territories such as Ecuador, where we have a distributor, 4G has not been completely rolled out, making it where there are some market penetration limitations, which risks, we expect to mitigate as 4G becomes more widely used.

We cannot accurately predict our future revenues and expenses.

We are currently developing various sources of revenues based on market conditions and the type of products that we are marketing. Our sales will not become stable and predictable until we either have a larger installed base of users for our tracking devices (which will provide us with predictable, monthly revenues), we enter into other license agreements that provide us with regular royalties or subscription revenues, or we consummate other large scale enterprise contracts. As such, the amount of revenues we receive from the sale and use of our products, our subscriptions, and our licensing agreements, will fluctuate and depend upon our customer’s willingness to buy our products, and for our partner’s abilities to sell the products that contain our technology. As with any developing enterprise operating in a specialized and intensely competitive market, we are subject to many business risks which include, but are not limited to, unforeseen negative publicity, competition, product liability and lack of operating experience. Many of the risks may be unforeseeable or beyond our control. There can be no assurance that we will successfully implement our business plan in a timely manner, or generate sufficient interest in our products or services, or that we will be able to market and sell enough products and services to generate sufficient revenues to continue as a going concern.

Our expense levels in the future will be based, in large part, on our expectations regarding future revenue, and as a result net income/loss for any quarterly period in which material orders are delayed could vary significantly. In addition, our costs and expenses may vary from period to period because of a variety of factors, including our research and development costs, our introduction of new products and services, cost increases from third-party service providers or product manufacturers, production interruptions, changes in marketing and sales expenditures, and competitive pricing pressures.

There are risks of international sales and operations.

We anticipate that a growing, and potentially substantial portion of our future revenue from the sale of our products and services may be derived from customers located outside the United States. As such, a portion of our sales and operations could be subject to tariffs and other import-export barriers, currency exchange risks and exchange controls, foreign product standards, potentially adverse tax consequences, longer payment cycles, problems in collecting accounts receivable, political instability, and difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations. Although we intend to monitor our exposure to currency fluctuations and currently the U.S. dollar is very strong giving us a significant buying advantage, there can be no assurance that exchange rate fluctuations will not have an adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. In the future, we could be required to sell our products and services in other currencies, which would make the management of currency fluctuations more difficult and expose our business to greater risks in this regard.

Our products may be subject to numerous foreign government standards and regulations that are continually being amended. Although we will endeavor to satisfy foreign technical and regulatory standards, there can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with foreign government standards and regulations, or changes thereto, or that it will be cost effective for us to redesign our products to comply with such standards or regulations. Our inability to design or redesign products to comply with foreign standards could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Because of the global nature of the telecommunications business, it is possible that the governments of other states and foreign countries might attempt to regulate our transmissions or prosecute us for violations of their laws. There can be no assurance that violations of local laws will not be alleged by state or foreign governments, that we might not unintentionally violate such law, or that such laws will not be modified, or new laws enacted, in the future.

Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, our current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reports, which could harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate and report on our internal controls over financial reporting and, depending on our future growth, may require our independent registered public accounting firm to annually attest to our evaluation, as well as issue their own opinion on our internal controls over financial reporting. The process of implementing and maintaining proper internal controls and complying with Section 404 is expensive and time consuming. We cannot be certain that the measures we will undertake will ensure that we will maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Furthermore, if we are able to rapidly grow our business, the internal controls that we will need will become more complex, and significantly more resources will be required to ensure our internal controls remain effective. Failure to implement required controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. If we or our auditors discover a material weakness in our internal controls, the disclosure of that fact, even if the weakness is quickly remedied, could diminish investors’ confidence in our financial statements and harm our stock price. In addition, non-compliance with Section 404 could subject us to a variety of administrative sanctions, including the suspension of trading, ineligibility for future listing on one of the Nasdaq Stock Markets or national securities exchanges, and the inability of registered broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, which may reduce our stock price.

We may suffer from product liability claims.

Faulty operation of our products may result in product liability claims brought against us. Regardless of the merit or eventual outcome, product liability claims may materially adversely affect our business and further result in:

	●	decreased demand for our products or withdrawal of the products from the market;

	●	injury to our reputation and significant media attention;

	●	costs of litigation; and

	●	substantial monetary awards to plaintiffs.

We have purchased annual product liability insurance with liability limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate. This coverage may not be sufficient to fully protect us against product liability claims. We intend to expand our product liability insurance coverage as sales of our products expand. Our inability to obtain sufficient product liability insurance at an acceptable cost to protect against product liability claims could prevent or limit the commercialization of our products and expose us to liability in excess of our coverage.

Our ability to compete could be jeopardized and our business seriously compromised if we are unable to protect ourselves from third-party challenges or infringement of the proprietary aspects of the wireless location products and technology we develop.

Our products utilize a variety of proprietary rights that are critical to our competitive position. Because the technology and intellectual property associated with our wireless location products are evolving and rapidly changing, our current intellectual property rights may not adequately protect us in the future. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and contractual restrictions to protect the intellectual property utilized in our products. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology. In addition, monitoring unauthorized use of our products is difficult and we cannot be certain the steps we have taken will prevent unauthorized use of our technology. Also, it is possible that no additional patents or trademarks will be issued from our currently pending or future patent or trademark applications. Because legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of patent and intellectual property rights are uncertain and still evolving, the future viability or value of our intellectual property rights is uncertain. Moreover, effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available in some countries in which we distribute or anticipate distributing our products. Furthermore, our competitors may independently develop similar technologies that limit the value of our intellectual property, design or patents. In addition, third parties may at some point claim certain aspects of our business infringe their intellectual property rights. While we are not currently subject to nor aware of any such claim, any future claim (with or without merit) could result in one or more of the following:

	●	Significant litigation costs;

	●	Diversion of resources, including the attention of management;

	●	Our agreement to pay certain royalty and/or licensing fees;

	●	Cause us to redesign those products that use such technology; or

	●	Cessation of our rights to use, market, or distribute such technology.

Any of these developments could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In the future, we may also need to file lawsuits to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Whether successful or unsuccessful, such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Such costs and diversion could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We depend on our key personnel to manage our business effectively in a rapidly changing market. If we are unable to retain our key employees, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

Our future success depends to a significant degree on the skills, efforts and continued services of our executive officers and other key engineering, manufacturing, operations, sales, marketing and support personnel. If we were to lose the services of one or more of our key executive officers or other key engineering, manufacturing, operations, sales, marketing and support personnel, we may not be able to grow our business as we expect, and our ability to compete could be harmed, adversely affecting our business and prospects.

Our products depend on continued availability of GPS and cellular wireless telecommunications systems.

Our products use existing GPS and cellular wireless telecommunications systems to identify the position of our products. Any temporary or permanent change in the availability of these systems, or any material change in the existing infrastructure and our ability to access those systems, would materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

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

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

Changes in the government regulation of our wireless location products or wireless carriers could harm our business.

Our products, wireless carriers and other components of the communications industry are subject to domestic government regulation by the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) and international regulatory bodies. If we are unable to satisfy all of the regulations of the FCC or any other regulatory body, we could be prevented from releasing one or more of our products, which could materially and adversely affect our future revenues. In addition, any delay in obtaining FCC and other regulatory approval could likewise have a negative impact on our business and on our relationships with our customers. These regulatory bodies could enact regulations that affect our products or the service providers which distribute our products, such as limiting the scope of the service providers’ market, capping fees for services provided by them or imposing communication technology standards which impact our products. Changes in these regulations could affect our products and, thereby, adversely affect our business and operations.

Future acquisitions or strategic investments may not be successful and may harm our operating results.

As part of our strategy, we have acquired or established smaller businesses, and we may do so in the future. For example, in 2023 we acquired Level 2 Security, LCC, which is now Level 2 Security Products, Inc., a 100% owned subsidiary. Future acquisitions or strategic investments could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results because of:

	●	The assumption of unknown liabilities, including employee obligations. Although we normally conduct extensive legal and accounting due diligence in connection with our acquisitions, there are many liabilities that cannot be discovered, and which liabilities could be material.

	●	We may become subject to significant expenses related to bringing the financial, accounting and internal control procedures of the acquired business into compliance with U.S. GAAP financial accounting standards and the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.

	●	Our operating results could be impaired as a result of restructuring or impairment charges related to amortization expenses associated with intangible assets.

	●	We could experience significant difficulties in successfully integrating any acquired operations, technologies, customers’ products and businesses with our existing operations.

	●	Future acquisitions could divert substantial capital and our management’s attention.

	●	We may not be able to hire the key employees necessary to manage or staff the acquired enterprise operations.

Our executive officers and directors have the ability to significantly influence matters submitted to our stockholders for approval.

As of May 17, 2024, our executive officers and directors, in the aggregate, beneficially own shares representing approximately 0.5971% of our common stock as well as super voting rights due to the Directors’ ownership of Preferred A shares (see Footnote #13 of our Financial Statements included herein). Beneficial ownership includes shares over which an individual or entity has investment or voting power and includes shares that could be issued upon the exercise of options and warrants within 60 days after the date of determination. On matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share. If our executive officers and directors choose to act together, they would have significant influence over all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, as well as our management and affairs. For example, these individuals, if they chose to act together, would have significant influence on the election of directors and approval of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentration of voting power could delay or prevent an acquisition of our company on terms that other stockholders may desire.

Failure to manage growth effectively could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The success of our future operating activities will depend upon our ability to expand our support system to meet the demands of our growing business. Any failure by our management to effectively anticipate, implement, and manage changes required to sustain our growth would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully operate acquired businesses, become profitable in the future, or effectively manage any other change.

RISKS RELATED TO AN INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES

The resale of shares by the holders of our convertible promissory notes and our other investors could depress the market price of our common stock.

We have issued a substantial amount of convertible promissory notes in the recent past to fund our working capital and other financial needs and may need to do so in the future. A number of the holders of these convertible notes have been converting these promissory notes into shares of our common stock. In addition, a substantial additional number of shares are issuable upon the conversion of currently outstanding convertible notes. The resale of a significant number of these shares into the public market by the investors could depress the market price of our common stock.

Our convertible notes may be converted into shares of our common stock at less than the then-prevailing market price for our common stock if the lenders chooses to convert the notes.

As of December 31, 2024, we had short term convertible notes with outstanding principal balances totaling $1,183,000 some of which can potentially be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at prices less than the then-prevailing market price. The lenders for these convertible notes have a financial incentive to convert the notes and realize the profit equal to the difference between the conversion price and the market price. If the convertible notes are converted, the price of our common stock could decrease. See further discussion regarding the conversion features of our convertible debentures in footnote 8 of our Financial Statements included herein.

During 2024, we did not convert any notes payable. Our average market price during 2024 was $0.0365 per share. Although our goal is to limit future issuances of such convertible notes, no assurance can be given that we will not have to raise funds from these types of investments in the future.

Our common stock is thinly traded and the price of our common stock may be negatively impacted by factors that are unrelated to our operations.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Open Market (the “Pinks”). Trading of our stock through the Pinks is frequently thin and highly volatile. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our business objectives, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets, or other developments which affect us or our industry. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

When we issue additional shares in the future, it will likely result in the dilution of our existing stockholders.

Our articles of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 2,071,000,000 shares of common stock with a $0.0001 par value, of which 34,745,931 common shares were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2024 (we also are authorized to issue 10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.0001, 13,846 of which have been issued and are outstanding Series-A, 3 of which have been issued and outstanding Series-B, 6 of which have been issued and outstanding Series-C), and 75,000 of which have been issued and outstanding Series-D). From time to time we may increase the number of shares available for issuance in connection with our equity compensation plans. Our board of directors may fix and determine the designations, rights, preferences or other variations of each class or series within each class of preferred stock and may choose to issue some or all of such shares to provide additional financing or acquire more businesses in the future.

The issuance of any shares for acquisition, licensing or financing efforts, upon conversion of any preferred stock or exercise of warrants and options, pursuant to our equity compensation plans, or otherwise may result in a reduction of the book value and market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuance will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current stockholders.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

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

We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. If we do have available cash, we intend to use it to grow our business. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at that time. In addition, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited by Nevada corporate law. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize a return on their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws contain specific provisions that eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our company and stockholders, and permit indemnification of our directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our stockholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and stockholders.

You may have difficulty selling our shares because they are deemed “penny stocks.”

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Pinks under the symbol “MLRT.” Since our common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, if the trading price of our common stock remains below $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock will be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, any non-national securities exchange equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions). The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the common stock and the ability of holders of the common stock to sell their shares.

Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through pre-arranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

CYBERSECURITY

At MetAlert, we recognize the critical importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers, partners, and employees.

Our operations utilize multiple information systems, including accounting software, multiple selling platforms (SHOPIFY, AMAZON) and banking platforms. In the ordinary course of our business, we collect, DO NOT collect, process, transmit, disclose, and retain personal information regarding our employees, vendors, contractors, and customers (which can include social security numbers, social insurance numbers, banking and tax identification information, health care information for employees, and credit card information).

To protect the information that we gather and the availability of our information systems from cybersecurity threats, we have an ongoing cybersecurity risk mitigation program, which includes maintaining up-to-date detection, prevention and monitoring systems. We define a cybersecurity threat as any potential unauthorized occurrence on or conducted through our information systems or information systems of a third party that we utilize in our business that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our information systems or any information residing therein.

We comply with the annual PCI DSS survey report. We have filed and maintained our compliance for the past ten years. The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is an information security standard used to handle credit cards from major card brands. The standard is administered by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council, and its use is mandated by the card brands. It was created to better control cardholder data and reduce credit card fraud. Validation of compliance is performed annually or quarterly with a method suited to the volume of transactions:^[1]

	●	Self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ)
	●	Firm-specific Internal Security Assessor (ISA)
	●	External Qualified Security Assessor (QSA)

Our cybersecurity risk management program includes:

	-	Risk assessments designed to help identify material cybersecurity risks to our critical systems, information, products, services, and our broader enterprise IT environment and;
	-	Company leadership managing our cybersecurity security controls, and response to cybersecurity incidents.

The Audit Committee reports to the full board of directors regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity.

Our management team is responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats. The team has primary responsibility for our overall cybersecurity risk management program.

We have not encountered any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. Notwithstanding the extensive approach we take to cybersecurity, we may not be successful in preventing or mitigating a cybersecurity incident that could have a material adverse effect on us cybersecurity laws and regulations could cause us to face litigation and penalties that could adversely affect our business, financial conditions, and results of operations.”).

ITEM 3.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may be involved in routine legal proceedings, as well as demands, claims and threatened litigation that arise in the normal course of our business. The ultimate amount of liability, if any, for any claims of any type (either alone or in the aggregate) may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. In addition, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain. Any outcome, whether favorable or unfavorable, may materially and adversely affect us due to legal costs and expenses, diversion of management attention and other factors. We expense legal costs in the period incurred. We cannot assure you that additional contingencies of a legal nature or contingencies having legal aspects will not be asserted against us in the future, and these matters could relate to prior, current or future transactions or events.

We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings. We are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation against us that we expect will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, or operating results. However, legal claims are inherently uncertain, and we cannot assure you that we will not be adversely affected in the future by legal proceedings.

ITEM 7.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the audited financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this registration statement. Certain statements contained in this registration statement, including statements regarding the anticipated development and expansion of our business, our intent, belief or current expectations, primarily with respect to the future operating performance of our company and the products and services we expect to offer and other statements contained herein regarding matters that are not historical facts, are “forward-looking” statements. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also forward-looking statements which involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Overview

Headquartered in Los Angeles, MLRT has developed a suite of products and solutions, powered by a proprietary real time tracking technology platform, allowing remote monitoring, location-based tracking, and health data collection of humans, and theft recovery for high value assets. Many of the products have a wide range of applications, focusing on addressing two pressing global problems: remote patient monitoring for people with cognitive decline and gun safety and recovery for firearm owners.

The Company was originally founded in 2002 as Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and, as part of a reverse merger, became publicly traded in 2008 as a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of GTX Corp, a Nevada corporation, under its former name “Deeas Resources Inc.” In September 2022, the public Company changed its name from GTX Corp to MetAlert, Inc. and effected a 1-for-65 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding stock (OTC Pinks: MLRT). Post name change the Company kept its 2 wholly owned subsidiaries. During the periods covered by this report, MetAlert, Inc. and its subsidiaries were engaged in business operations that design, manufacture and sell various interrelated and complementary products and services in the wearable technology and Personal Location Services marketplace. In September of 2023, we acquired Level 2 Security, LLC and merged it into a new 100% wholly owned subsidiary Level 2 Security Products, Inc. During that period, the operations of LOCiMobile, Inc., another 100% wholly owned subsidiary, was consolidated under Global Trek Xploration and the corporate entity was dissolved. MetAlert now owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its two operating subsidiaries - Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and Level 2 Security Products, Inc. The LOCiMOBILE digital assets are now under the management of the parent company MetAlert and remain there, post dissolution, of the corporate entity (LOCiMobile, Inc.). The Company’s digital platform which has been at the forefront of Smartphone application (“App”) development since 2008 designs mobile applications that turn the iPhone, iPad, Android and other GPS enabled handsets into a tracking device which can then be tracked from any mobile device or through our proprietary tracking portal or on any connected device with internet access.

Other technology that the Company has developed or resells includes health and safety monitoring products and wellness products that are complementary to our main product lines and general mission.

Operations

The Company designs, develops, manufactures, sells, and distributes health and safety monitoring products and services, along with other related medical supplies and equipment, and asset theft and recovery products and services, all through a global business to business (“B2B”) and business to consumer (“B2C”) network of resellers, affiliates, distributors, nonprofit organizations, local, state, and federal government agencies, police departments, manufacturers reps, retailers and direct to consumer. Offering a variety of electronic and non-electronic devices and equipment, a proprietary Internet of things (“IoT”) enterprise monitoring platform and a licensing subscription business model. The Company provides a complete end to end solution of hardware, middleware, apps, connectivity, licensing, and professional services, letting our customers know where or how someone, or something, is at the touch of a button, delivering safety, security, and peace of mind in real-time. Except for our military products and recently acquired Level 2 Security devices, all of our consumer and enterprise tracking products funnel into the MetAlert IoT monitoring platform which supports end user customers in over 35 countries. The Company is also in the business of licensing intellectual property, monetizing its patent portfolio, and providing backend infrastructure logistic and subscription management services.

Year in Review

Since 2008, we have been pioneering world class tracking and monitoring solutions for people with cognitive disorders, helping improve quality of life and in some cases save lives; and we have developed tracking and monitoring solutions for the U.S. military, so we see the expansion into the gun safety market as a perfect extension to our stated mission of providing practical and affordable technology solutions that can deliver lifesaving results.

During the reporting period of 2024 we took transformative steps to broaden our product line, expand our customer base, grow our government business, and increase our subscription revenue, by entering into the high value asset and firearm theft and recovery business. We successfully acquired Level 2 Security LLC in 2023, which we merged into our new 100% wholly owned subsidiary Level 2 Security Products, Inc. Management believes, this was a formidable step in solidifying the financial and operational position of the Company and encapsulates our vision to amplify recurring revenue streams while scaling the Company’s life-saving technology solutions and IP portfolio.

By tapping into gun safety and theft recovery markets, management believes this signifies a strategic investment in bolstering our short and long-term growth strategy and will broadly expand our reach into the arena of non-human asset tracking and theft recovery. This transaction represents a convergence of our core mission of delivering life-saving technology with a sharp focus on sustainable, long-term subscription-based revenue growth. The Company plans to start an immediate marketing and product awareness campaign to gun activist groups, gun safety groups, police departments, child safety advocate groups, gun stores and ranges, military supply lines, strategic partners and local, state and federal government agencies.

At the onset of 2024 we began multiple marketing and advertising campaigns for the GunAlert product, in order to best understand the marketplace and establish the sales channels we were going to have the most success and thereby develop. Within a few months we determined the product needed some revamping and we set out to create what later became GunAlert version 2 which included all the same electronics and app, but also a steel cable combination lock, thereby creating the first 3 in 1 gun lock with a highly sensitive motion sensor and a GPS cellular tracking module. We filed a patent, created new marketing material and started working on developing strategic partnerships. Throughout 2024 we signed several agreements with organizations such as The American Legion, Walk the Talk America, Promise2Live. We developed multiple sales channels, B2B, B2C, Law Enforcement and Government Agencies and we engaged brand ambassadors and retired police officers. We also started doing media appearances and throughout the year the new and improved version 2 GunAlert was featured on numerous Podcasts, radio show, TV news channels, and social media.

We became aware and identified a multiple government agencies, politicians and nonprofits supporting and funding gun safety. As part of our go to market strategy we brought on advisors that can assist us with messaging, and grant approval procedures, so that we can become a approved vendor/supplier and recognized solution provider in the ever-growing national conversation on gun safety.

The Global Wearable Medical Devices Market is driven by the growing geriatric population which is susceptible to various chronic diseases. This has drastically increased the patient pool across the globe requiring diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of their health conditions. This in turn is expected to increase the demand for various wearable medical devices used for health monitoring and diagnosis, thereby positively influencing the market growth over the next few years. MetAlert is committed to implementing technological advancements and adoption of AI, IoT, BLE, NFC and other technologies into its GPS SmartSole plus platform to bring about innovations in the wearable medical device industry, thereby propelling the market growth over the next decade.

Despite lower total revenues as compared to the year ended 2023, we saw a 444% increase in net profit, with a 234% increase in direct-to-consumer orders in SmartSole sales and increases in international sales of 26%. Overall subscription revenue increased by 54%, accordingly. This, combined with our cost cutting initiatives helped the Company achieve a 29% drop in operating expenses and a 34% increase in overall profit from the prior year.

In summary, we made some positive steps forward during this year, but did not meet our revenue targets. The Company implemented many cost saving measures, including the entire senior management team deferring salaries, and cutting out all non-essential expenses by approximately 29% from the year ended 2023. We have worked with all our suppliers to reduce unnecessary expenses related to production inefficiencies in order to position ourselves to maximize profits as we scale back up. The Company continues to work towards receiving Medicare and other government assistance for our SmartSole, which will then foster growth and build our subscription base, which we believe will ultimately provide us with a large global data base that can be analyzed by using artificial intelligence (A.I.) to produce predictive models. Healthcare assisted with A.I. is the prize we have set our sights on, and we are doing everything we can to put in place the necessary steps to get to that prize as quickly as possible.

We believe the steps we took in 2024 will start to yield the results in the coming months that we have been stiving towards. And looking ahead in 2025 management expects to focus on market penetration in the gun safety industry, specifically, working with police departments and governments agencies, while continuing to expand SmartSole production while lowering costs and look for new products and technologies to deploy.

Revenues

Revenues as a whole in fiscal 2024 decreased by 27% or $66,855 in comparison to fiscal 2023, yet, we saw a 38% increase in overall sales, excluding PPE’s and the new GunAlert, with a 234% increase in direct-to-consumer orders, as well as international distributors also saw an increase in orders of 26% increase. Subscriptions revenues increased 54% over the previous comparable period, while we saw a decrease in revenue related to medical sales as COVID related sales ceased.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s customer base and revenue streams were comprised of approximately 61% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Institutions), 39% B2C (consumers and government agencies who bought on the behalf of consumers, through our online ecommerce platform and through Amazon, Google and iTunes).

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s customer base and revenue streams were comprised of approximately 70% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Institutions), 30% B2C (consumers and government agencies who bought on the behalf of consumers, through our online ecommerce platform and through Amazon, Google and iTunes).

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold decreased by 71% or $161,975 during fiscal year 2024 in comparison to fiscal year 2023. This decrease was primarily due to the 2023 addition of costs related to the new GUNALERT product. Additionally, inventory at year-end of 2023 was analyzed and it was determined that as we progressed into our newest version of the SmartSole, that various parts and inventory levels held at our third-party contract manufacturers were now obsolete, and had no resale value, and thus written-off.

The Company expects our margins to increase once we start ramping up our subscriptions and sell more of our proprietary products like our SmartSoles, where we have limited competition. Our overall gross margin was higher in 2024, predominately because most of our revenues came from higher margin revenue. In order to be competitive with the major online retailers (many of them include free shipping) we had to reduce our shipping charges to be in line with competitors.

Wages and benefits

Wages and benefits for fiscal year 2024 decreased by $143,717 or 34% as compared to fiscal year 2023, predominantly because of cost cutting and time saving initiatives that have been in place during slower periods and the executives of the Company agreeing to not accrue unpaid salary since Q3 2023. Wages and benefits are broken out for usability of information but generally align with general and administrative type expenses. We expect to adjust to the more widely used general and administrative type expenses method during the 2025 year.

Professional fees

Professional fees consist of costs attributable to consultants and contractors who primarily spend their time on legal, accounting, product development, business development, corporate advisory services and shareholder communications. Such costs decreased $101,845 or 47% in fiscal year 2024 compared to fiscal year 2023. Professional fees have decreased as more responsibilities were transferred from outside contractors and consultants to in-house personnel, along with the reduced fees related to investor relations and business development. Professional fees are broken out for usability of information but generally align with general and administrative type expenses. We expect to adjust to the more widely used general and administrative type expenses method during the 2025 year.

Sale and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 151% or $11,782 during fiscal year 2024 in comparison to fiscal year 2023, this is primarily due to costs related to marketing the new 4G SmartSole predominately being in 2023.

General and administrative

General and administrative costs during fiscal year 2024 increased by $9,432 or 4%, in comparison to fiscal year 2023.

Other expense/income, net

Other expense/income in fiscal year 2024 decreased by $42,426 or 14%, in comparison to fiscal year 2023. This is primarily as a result of decreases of the amortization of debt discount and interest expense.

Net loss

Net loss during fiscal year 2024 decreased by $361,893, or 30%, in comparison to the net loss incurred during fiscal year 2023 primarily as a result of large decreases in professional fees related to stock-based compensation, and the lowering of wages and salaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2024, we had $53,501 in cash and $309,679 of current assets, and $4,590,666 of current liabilities, resulting in a working capital deficit of $4,280,987 compared to $68,440 in cash and a working capital deficit of approximately $4,049,387 as of December 31, 2023.

Net cash used in operating activities was $438,567 for fiscal 2024 compared to net cash used of $417,245 for fiscal 2023, an increase of 5%. Other than the 30% reduction in net loss, the increase in net cash used in operating activities was largely attributed to the net change in non-cash items that includes: stock based compensation, no gains in the extinguishment of debt and accrued interest as compared to the previous year, and the net change in operating assets and liabilities that includes increased spending for inventory, the payment of accounts payable and accrued expenses, including interest expense attributable to the reduction in debt.

Net cash used by investing activities during fiscal 2024 was $12,545 and net cash provided by investing activities during fiscal year 2023 was $42,408, respectively and consisted of the purchase of intangible assets in 2024. Net cash used by investing activities during fiscal 2023 was $42,408 and consisted of the purchase of intangible assets in 2023

Net cash provided by financing activities during fiscal 2024 was $436,173 and consisted of proceeds totaling $290,000 in proceeds from the issuance of debt, $200,000 from the sale of preferred stock, with payments on debt and the lines of credit of $52,327 and $1,500 to related parties. Net cash provided by financing activities during fiscal 2023 was $434,743 and consisted of proceeds totaling $345,500 in proceeds from the issuance of debt, $100,000 from the sale of preferred stock, $38,500 in proceeds from the sale of warrants, payments of $7,000 in related party debt and proceeds from the line of credit of $46,881 with payments on debt and the lines of credit of $89,138.

We expect to continue to generate revenues from all our business units from existing product sales, recurring subscriptions, software and Intellectual Property licensing, military and professional services. We also expect to see new revenues come in from recently launched products and products that are scheduled for launch throughout 2025; however, even though existing product sales and recurring subscriptions are starting to become more consistent, the amount of revenues is still unpredictable and may not be sufficient to fund all our working capital needs. Accordingly, we anticipate that we will have negative cash flow from our operations and, therefore, will have to raise additional capital in order to fund our operations in 2025.

In order to continue funding our working capital needs and our product development costs we continued to draw upon our Lines of Credit with our bank (see Notes Payable Footnote 8 in our Financial Statements included herein for more information), which resulted in $0 of draws and repayments of $16,397 against this balance in fiscal year 2024. Further, the Company continues to raise capital through an Offering Statement on Form 1-A, filed on August 7, 2023, and qualified on August 14, 2023, with a $0.10 per share offering price.

In fiscal 2023, we drew upon our Lines of Credit with an accredited investor or our bank (see Notes Payable Footnote 8 in our Financial Statements included herein for more information), which resulted in $46,881 of draws and repayments of $26,492.

In addition to continuing to incur normal operating expenses, we intend to continue our research and development efforts for our various technologies and products, including hardware, software, interface customization, and website development, and we also expect to further develop our sales, marketing and manufacturing programs associated with the commercialization, licensing and sales of our GPS devices and security technology. We currently do not have sufficient capital on hand to fully fund our proposed research and development activities, which lack of product development may negatively affect our future revenues.

As noted above, based on budgeted revenues and expenditures, unless revenues increase significantly, we believe that our existing and projected sources of liquidity may not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months. Using currently available capital resources, management believes we can conduct planned operations for 120 days. Accordingly, we believe we need to raise equity and/or debt in the near term to facilitate normal operations. The sale of additional equity securities will result in additional dilution to our existing stockholders. Sale of debt securities could involve substantial operational and financial covenants that might inhibit our ability to follow our business plan. Any additional funding that we obtain in a financing is likely to reduce the percentage ownership of the Company held by our existing security-holders. The amount of this dilution may be substantial based on our current stock price, and could increase if the trading price of our common stock declines at the time of any financing from its current levels. We may also attempt to raise funds through corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, we may be required to grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the needed additional funding, we may have to further reduce our current level of operations, or, may even have to totally discontinue our operations.

We are subject to many risks associated with businesses at our stage, including the above discussed risks associated with the ability to raise capital. Please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” for more information regarding risks associated with our business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have had effects on our net sales and revenues and our income from continuing operations over our two most recent fiscal years. Our costs on both materials and labor have risen between 10-25% across the board, thereby affecting our margins. These cost increases will be offset over time with pricing adjustments, when possible.

Going Concern

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment.

The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below.

We have identified the following critical accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The following is a review of the more critical accounting policies and methods used by us.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), (“ASC 606”). The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which include (1) identifying the contract or agreement with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

We derive our revenues primarily from hardware sales, subscription services fees, IP licensing and professional services fees. Hardware includes our SmartSole, GunTracker, Military and other Stand-Alone Devices. Subscription services revenues consist of fees from customers accessing our Geo-Location cloud-based platform through subscription or license fee, that are billed monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annually. Predominately most of our subscriptions at this time are billed monthly and recognized at the time of billing. Professional services and other revenues consist primarily of fees from implementation services, configuration, data services, training and managed services related to our solutions, which are also recognized at the time of billing once the service has been performed/delivered IP licensing is related to any agreement with 3^rd parties to license our IP portfolio and that revenue is recognized as per the term of the specific licensing agreements.

The Company’s initial point of contact with its retail customers is thru its e-commerce site whereby any contract with the customer is entered into and dealt with thru the online ordering process and does not require performance beyond delivery. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than a promised service to the customer. Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs upon shipment from our facilities. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time.

The Company’s recognizes revenues with its wholesale customers, as with retail, upon shipment, and recurring subscription revenue is recognized at the time of billing which is done 30 days in the arrears from delivery of service. Rendering the service obligation fulfilled

Product sales

At the inception of each customer sale, either online or through a purchase order, we assess the goods and services promised in our contracts and identify each distinct performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to the customer in an amount that depicts the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to for the related products or services. For the large majority of the Company’s sales, transfer of control occurs once the product has shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer.

Subscription and Other Revenue

The Company’s software solutions are available for use as hosted application arrangements under subscription fee agreements without licensing perpetual rights to the software. Subscription fees from these applications are recognized over time on a ratable basis over the customer agreement term beginning on the date the Company’s solution is made available to the customer. Our subscription contracts are generally one to three months in length. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and deferred revenues or revenues, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Other revenue can include various items, such as our professional services arrangements that are recognized on a time and materials basis. Professional services revenues recognized on a time and materials basis are measured monthly based on time incurred and contractually agreed upon rates. Certain professional services revenues are based on fixed fee arrangements and revenues are recognized based on the proportional performance method. In some cases, the terms of our time and materials and fixed fee arrangements may require that we defer the recognition of revenue until contractual conditions are met. Data services and training revenues are generally recognized as the services are performed. Additionally, we have had non-compete revenue from the sale of assets, engineering and design work, all of which are recognized over the term of the agreed contracts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Based on the evaluation as of December 31, 2024, for the reasons set forth below, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, as amended). Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) to evaluate our control environment, risk assessment, information and communication, monitoring activities, and existing control activities. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We have identified the following weakness:

●

We do not have a robust and defined closing process, which has resulted in year-end adjustments that were identified by audit procedures.

As a result, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were ineffective for the size of our Company. However, there can be no assurance that implementation of any change will be completed in a timely manner or that it will be adequate once implemented. To the extent possible, we will implement procedures to assure that the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be performed by separate individuals.

No Attestation Report by Independent Registered Accountant

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting since one is not required.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the annual reporting period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Director Qualifications and Diversity

Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) has not adopted a formal policy with regard to the consideration of diversity when evaluating candidates for election to the Board. However, our Board believes that membership should reflect diversity in its broadest sense, but should not be chosen nor excluded based on race, color, gender, national origin or sexual orientation. In this context, the Board does consider a candidate’s experience, education, industry knowledge, history with the Company, and differences of viewpoint when evaluating his or her qualifications for election to the Board. Whenever our Board evaluates a potential candidate, the Board considers that individual in the context of the composition of the Board as a whole.

The standards that our Board considers in selecting candidates (although candidates need not possess all of the following characteristics, and not all factors are weighted equally) include the director’s or nominee’s, Industry knowledge and contacts in industries served by the Company, independent judgment, ability to broadly represent the interests of all stockholders and other constituencies, maturity and experience in policy making decisions, business skills, background and relevant expertise that are useful to the company and its future needs, and other factors determined to be relevant by the Board.

Audit Committee

The Company has established a standing Audit and Finance Committee (the “Audit Committee”) for purpose of overseeing accounting and financial reporting processes and audits of financial statements for the Company. The Audit Committee held one meeting in 2024. Members of the Audit Committee are the COO (Chair), CEO and CFO.

The Audit Committee’s responsibilities include:

	●	appointing, approving the compensation of, and assessing the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm;

	●	pre-approving auditing and permissible non-audit services, and the terms of such services, to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm;

	●	reviewing the overall audit plan with our independent registered public accounting firm and members of management responsible for preparing our consolidated financial statements;

	●	reviewing and discussing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm our annual and quarterly financial statements and related disclosures as well as critical accounting policies and practices used by us;

	●	coordinating the oversight and reviewing the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting;

	●	establishing policies and procedures for the receipt and retention of accounting-related complaints and concerns;

	●	recommending based upon the audit committee’s review and discussions with management and our independent registered public accounting firm whether our audited financial statements shall be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K;

	●	monitoring the integrity of our consolidated financial statements and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements as they relate to our consolidated financial statements and accounting matters;

	●	preparing the audit committee report required by SEC rules to be included in our annual proxy statement;

	●	reviewing all related person transactions for potential conflict of interest situations and approving all such transactions; and

	●	reviewing quarterly earnings releases.

All services, other than de minimis non-audit services, to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm must be approved in advance by our audit committee.

All members of our audit committee will meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the Nasdaq listing rules. Our board of directors has determined that the CFO qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of applicable SEC regulations. In making this determination, our board of directors considered the nature and scope of experience that our CFO has had throughout his career as a financial and accounting executive. Our board of directors has determined that all of the directors that are members of our audit committee satisfy the relevant independence requirements for service on the audit committee set forth in the rules of the SEC and the Nasdaq listing rules. Both our independent registered public accounting firm and management will periodically meet privately with our audit committee.

Both our independent registered public accounting firm and our internal financial personnel will regularly meet with, and have unrestricted access to, the audit committee.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among the Company’s directors, executive officers, or persons nominated or chosen by the Company to become directors or executive officers.

Director or Officer Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Our current directors and executive officers have not been involved in any legal proceedings as described in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past ten years.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer. A copy of our code of ethics will be furnished without charge to any person upon written request. Requests should be sent to: Secretary, GTX Corp, 117 W. 9th Street, #1214 Los Angeles, California 90015.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the company’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on its review of the copies of reporting forms received by the Company, the Company believes that no Forms 4’s were required to be filed as required under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(1)

Mr. Bertagna, our Chief Executive Officer has agreed to defer portions of his salary in an effort to preserve cash for other working capital needs of the Company. In 2024, Mr. Bertagna deferred $0 of his wages of $150,000, and received $61,975 in cash payments, used $15,000 of his allowances and deferred $10,000 for Board of Director fees thru December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, Mr. Bertagna has a deferred balance of $92,050 in accounts payable that has not been converted into Employee Notes.

(2)	Mr. McKean, our Chief Financial Officer has agreed to defer portions of his salary in an effort to preserve cash for other working capital needs of the Company. As of December 31, 2024, Mr. McKean has deferred $0 of his wages of $40,300 and has a deferred balance of $59,067 in accounts payable of his 2024 deferred salary compensation that has not been converted into Employee Notes.

(3)	The values shown in this column include Director fees, additional employee benefits paid including travel, health insurance, auto lease payments and cellular phone service. During 2024 these expenses, other than the Director fees, where applied against current and or previous year’s accruals.

Outstanding Equity Awards

None.

Severance and Change in Control Benefits

None.

Benefits upon Death or Disability

None.

Long-Term Incentive Plans

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers.

Tax and Accounting Treatment of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code places a limit of $1.0 million per person on the amount of compensation that we may deduct in any one year with respect to our Chief Executive Officer and certain of our other executive officers. While the Board of Directors considers deductibility factors when making compensation decisions, the board also looks at other considerations, such as providing our executive officers with competitive and adequate incentives to remain with us and increase our business operations, financial performance and prospects, as well as rewarding extraordinary contributions. No compensation to named executive officers exceeded this threshold in 2022.

We account for equity compensation paid to our employees under the rules of FASB ASC Topic 718, which requires us to estimate and record an expense for each award of equity compensation over the service period of the award. Accounting rules also require us to record cash compensation as an expense at the time the obligation is accrued. We have not tailored our executive compensation program to achieve particular accounting results.

Policies on Ownership, Insider Trading, Hedging And 10b5-1 Plans

We do not have formal stock ownership guidelines for our employees or directors, because the Board of Directors is satisfied that stock and option holdings among our employees or directors, are sufficient at this time to provide motivation and to align this group’s interests with those of our stockholders. In addition, we believe that stock ownership guidelines are rare in companies at our stage, which means that ownership requirements would put us at a competitive disadvantage when recruiting and retaining high-quality executives.

Our insider trading policy, which is incorporated into our Code of Business Conducts and Ethics prohibits certain actions by our Executive Officers relating to buying and selling our common stock. Our executive officers are authorized to enter into trading plans established according to Section 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act with an independent broker-dealer (“broker”) designated by us. These plans may include specific instructions for the broker to exercise vested options and sell Company stock on behalf of the executive officer at certain dates, if our stock price is above a specified level or both. Under these plans, the executive officer no longer has control over the decision to exercise and sell the securities in the plan, unless he or she amends or terminates the trading plan during a trading window. Plan modifications are not effective until the 31^st day after adoption. The purpose of these plans is to enable executive officers to recognize the value of their compensation and diversify their holdings of our stock during periods in which the executive officer would be unable to sell our common stock because material information about us had not been publicly released. As of the record date, no named executive officer had a trading plan in place.

Director Compensation

We have no formal plan for compensating our directors for their service in their capacity as directors although such directors are expected to receive shares of common stock and/or options in the future to purchase common shares as awarded by our Board of Directors or (as to future options) a Compensation Committee which may be established in the future. Directors are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on behalf of our company other than services ordinarily required of a director.

The following table summarizes the compensation of each of our directors who is not also a named executive officer for their service as a director for the year ended December 31, 2024. The compensation of Mr. Bertagna, who serves as a director and as our Chief Executive Officer, is described above in the Summary Compensation Table.

Employment Agreements

The following are summaries of the employment agreements with the Company’s executive officers:

Patrick E. Bertagna, our Chief Executive Officer and President, is employed pursuant to a written agreement dated as of March 14, 2008. The agreement was for a term of two years, but contained a provision under which the agreement is automatically extended for additional one-year periods unless either party provides written notice to the contrary at least 60 days prior to the end of the term then in effect. As such, Mr. Bertagna receives a base salary of $150,000 per year; however, in order to preserve cash for other working capital needs, Mr. Bertagna has agreed to accrue portions of his salary in the past and he is continuing to do so in 2023. He is entitled to adjustments to his base salary based on certain performance standards, at the Company’s discretion, as follows: (i) a bonus in an amount not less than fifteen percent (15%) of yearly salary, to be paid in cash or stock, if the Company has an increase in annual revenues and Mr. Bertagna performs his duties within the time frame budgeted for such duties at or below the cost budgeted for such duties and (ii) a bonus, to be paid in cash or stock at the Company’s sole discretion, equal to $12,500 for every one million of the Company’s outstanding common stock purchase warrants that are exercised.

Mr. Bertagna may also participate in any and all benefits and perquisites as are generally provided for the benefit of executive employees. The agreement terminates on his death, incapacity (after 180 days), resignation or cause as defined in the agreement. If he is terminated without cause, he is entitled to base salary, including back salary owed, all bonuses otherwise applicable, and medical benefits for twelve months.

Alex McKean, was appointed as the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer from October 3, 2011 and was appointed full-time in 2015. He is not employed pursuant to a written employment agreement.

2008 Equity Compensation Plan

We have adopted an equity incentive plan, the 2008 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2008 Plan”), pursuant to which we are authorized to grant options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, and stock appreciation rights to purchase up to 7,000,000 shares of common stock to our employees (as such term is defined in the 2008 Plan), officers, directors and consultants. Awards under the 2008 Plan may consist of stock options (both non-qualified options and options intended to qualify as “Incentive Stock Options” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), restricted and unrestricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights.

The 2008 Plan is administered by our Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board (the “Committee”). If appointed by the Board, the committee would consist of at least two members of the Board whose members shall, from time to time, be appointed by the Board. The Committee has the authority to interpret the 2008 Plan, to prescribe, amend, and rescind rules and regulations relating to it, to determine the persons to whom awards will be granted, the type of award to be granted, the number of awards to be granted, and the terms and provisions of stock options granted pursuant to the 2008 Plan, including the vesting thereof, subject to the provisions of the 2008 Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2008 Plan.

The 2008 Plan provides that the purchase price of each share of common stock subject to an incentive stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value (as such term is defined in the 2008 Plan) of a share of our common stock on the date of grant (or not less than 110% of the fair market value in the case of a grantee holding more than 10% of our outstanding common stock). The aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the option is granted) of the common stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the employee during any calendar year (under all such plans of the grantee’s employer corporation and its parent and subsidiary corporation) shall not exceed $100,000. No incentive stock option shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of its grant; provided, however, that an incentive stock option granted to an employee holding more than 10% of our outstanding common stock shall not be exercisable later than the fifth anniversary of its grant.

The Committee shall determine the purchase price of each share of common stock subject to a non-qualified stock option. Such purchase price, however, shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. No non-qualified stock option shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of its grant.

The plan also permits the grant of stock appreciation rights in connection with the grant of an incentive stock option or a non-qualified stock option, or unexercised portion thereof held by the grantee. The grant price of a stock appreciation right shall be at least at the fair market value of a share on the date of grant of the stock appreciation right, and be subject to such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the 2008 Plan, as shall be determined by the Committee. Each stock appreciation right may include limitations as to the time when such stock appreciation right becomes exercisable and when it ceases to be exercisable, which may be more restrictive than the limitations on the exercise of the stock option to which it relates. No stock appreciation right shall be exercisable with respect to such related stock option or portion thereof unless such stock option or portion shall itself be exercisable at that time. A stock appreciation right shall be exercised only upon surrender of the related stock option or portion thereof in respect of which the stock appreciation right is then being exercised. Upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right, a grantee shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount by which the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right exceeds the option price per share specified in the related incentive or non-qualified stock option and (ii) the number of shares of common stock in respect of which the stock appreciation right shall have been exercised. Further, a stock appreciation right shall be exercisable during the grantee’s lifetime only by the grantee.

The 2008 Plan also provides us with the ability to grant shares of common stock that are subject to certain transferability, forfeiture or other restrictions. The recipient of restricted stock grants, the type of restriction, the number of shares of restricted stock granted and other such provisions shall be determined by the Committee. The Board, in good faith and in its sole discretion, shall determine the fair market value with regards to awards of restricted stock.

The 2008 Plan also provides us with the ability to grant shares of unrestricted stock. The Committee shall determine and designate from time to time those persons who are to be granted unrestricted stock and number of shares of common stock subject to such grant. The Board, in good faith and in its sole discretion, shall determine the fair market value with regards to awards of unrestricted stock. The grantee shall hold common stock issued pursuant to an unrestricted stock award free and clear of all restrictions, except as otherwise provided in the 2008 Plan.

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, awards granted under the 2008 Plan are not transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

The 2008 Plan provides that in the event of a merger or change of control, the Committee may substitute stock options, stock awards and stock appreciation rights of the acquired company. Alternatively, the Committee may provide that the stock options, stock awards and stock appreciation rights shall terminate following notice by the Committee.

The Board may, at any time, alter, amend, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the 2008 Plan; provided, however, that such action shall not adversely affect the right of grantees to stock awards or stock options previously granted and no amendment, without the approval of the stockholders of the Corporation, shall increase the maximum number of shares which may be awarded under the 2008 Plan in the aggregate, materially increase the benefits accruing to grantees under the 2008 Plan, change the class of employees eligible to receive options under the 2008 Plan, or materially modify the eligibility requirements for participation in the 2008 Plan.

ITEM 12.

Each of the persons named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to common stock beneficially owned. Unless otherwise noted in the table, the address for each of the persons identified is 117 W 9th Street, Suite 1214, Los Angeles, CA 90015. Beneficial ownership is calculated based upon 37,710,876 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of April 15, 2025.

Patrick E. Bertagna - CEO and Chairman of the Board	5,367,447 shares		14.23	%

Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of MetAlert, Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MetAlert, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024, the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has recurring losses from operations. These conditions 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 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

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

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of MetAlert, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MetAlert Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred continuing net losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

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

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matter 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 matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue Recognition

As discussed in the financial statement’s footnotes, the Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of promised services and goods to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. The Company offers customers the ability to acquire services with their goods. Significant judgement is exercised by the Company in determining revenue recognition for these customers. Given these factors and due to the volume of transactions, the related audit effort in evaluating management’s judgments in determining revenue recognition for these customer agreements was extensive and required a high degree of auditor judgement.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2021.

METALERT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

During the periods covered by these financial statements, MetAlert, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “MetAlert”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) were engaged in business operations that design, manufacture and sell various interrelated and complementary products and services in the wearable technology and Personal Location Services marketplace. MetAlert owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its two subsidiaries - Global Trek Xploration, Inc., Level 2 Security Products, Inc.

LOCiMOBILE, Inc’s, digital assets are now under the management of the parent company MetAlert and remain there, post dissolution, of the corporate entity (LOCiMobile, Inc.). The Company’s digital platform which has been at the forefront of Smartphone application (“App”) development since 2008 designs mobile applications that turn the iPhone, iPad, Android and other GPS enabled handsets into a tracking device which can then be tracked from any mobile device or through our proprietary tracking portal or on any connected device with internet access.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of MetAlert, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a net loss of $828,265 during the year ended December 31, 2024, has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $29,574,894 as of December 31, 2024, and has a stockholders’ deficit of $4,448,517 as of December 31, 2024. The Company anticipates further losses in the development of its business. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the financial statements being issued.

F-7

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of debt or equity is unknown. The ability to obtain additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, or its ability to achieve profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations, and there is no assurance that these can be achieved. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (“ASC 606”). The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which include (1) identifying the contract or agreement with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

We derive our revenues primarily from hardware sales, subscription services fees, IP licensing and professional services fees. Hardware includes our SmartSole, GunTracker, Military and other Stand-Alone Devices. Subscription services revenues consist of fees from customers accessing our Geo-Location cloud-based platform through subscription or license fee, that are billed monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annually. Predominately most of our subscriptions at this time are billed monthly and recognized over the service period. Professional services and other revenues consist primarily of fees from implementation services, configuration, data services, training and managed services related to our solutions, which are also recognized at the time of billing once the service has been performed/delivered IP licensing is related to any agreement with 3^rd parties to license our IP portfolio and that revenue is recognized as per the term of the specific licensing agreements.

The Company’s initial point of contact with its retail customers is through its e-commerce site whereby any contract with the customer is entered into through the online ordering process and does not require performance beyond delivery. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than a promised service to the customer. Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs upon shipment from our facilities. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time.

Product sales

At the inception of each customer sale, either online or through a purchase order, we assess the goods and services promised in our contracts and identify each distinct performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to the customer in an amount that depicts the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to for the related products or services. Company’s sales, transfer of control occurs once the product has shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer.

F-8

Services Income

The Company’s software solutions are available for use as hosted application arrangements under subscription fee agreements without licensing perpetual rights to the software. Subscription fees from these applications are recognized over time on a ratable basis over the customer agreement term beginning on the date the Company’s solution is made available to the customer. Our subscription contracts are generally one to twelve months in length. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and deferred revenues or revenues, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Other revenue can include various items, such as our professional services arrangements that are recognized on a time and materials basis. Professional services revenues recognized on a time and materials basis are measured monthly based on time incurred and contractually agreed upon rates. Certain professional services revenues are based on fixed fee arrangements and revenues are recognized based on the proportional performance method. In some cases, the terms of our time and materials and fixed fee arrangements may require that we defer the recognition of revenue until contractual conditions are met. Data services and training revenues are generally recognized as the services are performed. Additionally, we have had non-compete revenue from the sale of assets, engineering, and design work, all of which are recognized over the term of the agreed contracts.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We extend credit based on our evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. We carry our accounts receivable at net realizable value. We monitor our exposure to losses on receivables and maintain allowances for potential losses or adjustments. We determine these allowances by (1) evaluating the aging of our receivables; and (2) reviewing high-risk customer’s financial condition. Past due receivable balances are written off when our internal collection efforts have been unsuccessful in collecting the amount due. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was 7,585 as of December 31, 2024, and $12,431 as of December 31, 2023.

F-9

Product Warranty

The Company’s warranty policy provides repair or replacement of products (excluding GPS Shoe devices) returned for defects within ninety days of purchase. The Company’s warranties are of an assurance-type and come standard with all Company products to cover repair or replacement should product not perform as expected. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and recovery from suppliers. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty costs. The Company estimates the actual historical warranty claims coupled with an analysis of unfulfilled claims to record a liability for specific warranty purposes. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, products returned for repair or replacement have been immaterial. Accordingly, a warranty liability has not been deemed necessary.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs consist primarily of fees paid to consultants and outside service providers, patent fees and costs, and other expenses relating to the acquisition, design, development and testing of the Company’s products. Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred and totaled $0 and $18,859 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the 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. Estimates relate to the assumptions made in determining reserves for uncollectible receivables, inventory reserves and returns, impairment analysis of long-term assets and deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing the fair market value of equity transactions. Estimates are updated on an ongoing basis and are evaluated based on historical experience and current circumstances. Changes in facts and circumstances in the future may give rise to changes in these estimates which may cause actual results to differ from current estimates.

Fair Value Estimates

Pursuant to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 820, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, the Company records its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC No. 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. ASC No. 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

	Level 1 -	Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

	Level 2 -	Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the asset/liability’s anticipated life.

	Level 3 -	Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment in marketable securities, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying values of notes payable and other financing obligations approximate their fair values because interest rates on these obligations are based on prevailing market interest rates.

F-10

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2024 and include the accounts of MetAlert, Inc. and the following majority-owned subsidiaries, Global Trek Xploration (100%) and Level 2 Security Products, Inc. (100%), see Note 5.

All Intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with insignificant rate risk and with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.

Inventory

Inventory generally consists of raw materials and finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. The Company evaluates its inventory for excess and obsolescence on a regular basis. In preparing the evaluation the Company looks at the expected demand for the product, as well as changes in technology, in order to determine whether or not a reserve is necessary to record the inventory at net realizable value. For the years ending December 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any charges to expense associated with excess and obsolete inventory cost adjustments, however in 2023 the Company considered it’s personal protective equipment inventory as obsolete and wrote it off.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated three-year useful lives of the assets. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

Concentrations

We rely on a small number of supplier for our products and services. The loss of any of these manufacturers could negatively impact our operations.

F-11

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had three (3) customers representing 41% of sales and five (5) customers representing 79% of total accounts receivable, respectively. The Company had four customers representing approximately 29%, 16%, 16% and 15% of sales and four customers representing approximately 45%, 14%, 11% and 7% of total accounts receivable, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Intangible Assets

The Company records identifiable intangible assets acquired from other enterprises or individuals at cost. Intangible assets consist of a licensing agreement enabling the Company to sell its GPS-related vehicle tracking software and services which is being amortized over the life of the licensing agreement.

Marketable Securities

The Company’s securities investments that are acquired and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market price (level 1) on the balance sheet in current assets, with the change in fair value during the period included in earnings.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Shares of restricted stock are included in the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding from the time they vest. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Shares of restricted stock are included in the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding from the date they are granted unless they are antidilutive. Diluted loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

	2024		2023
	December 31,
	2024		2023
Warrants		180,000		846,154
Preferred B shares		18,462		18,462
Preferred C shares		6,154		6,154
Preferred D shares		7,500,000		1,500,000
Conversion shares upon conversion of notes		129,852,246		111,624,469
Total		137,556,862		113,995,239

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized by applying the statutory tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences between the financial reporting and tax filing bases of existing assets and liabilities are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The Company measures all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and non-employee consultants based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense for those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. For awards with service-based vesting conditions, the Company records the expense for using the straight-line method. For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, the Company records the expense if and when the Company concludes that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its statement of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s costs are classified.

F-12

Segments

The Company operates in one segment for the manufacture and distribution of its products. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the accompanying financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

3. INVESTMENTS IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The company owns common stock shares in two entities that previously had readily determinable values based on observable market prices. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023 the value was $649, respectively.

4. INVENTORY

Inventories consist of the following:

SCHEDULE OF INVENTORY

	2024		2023
	December 31,
	2024		2023
Raw materials	$	12,766	$	24,936
Finished goods		224,640		206,882
Total Inventories	$	237,406	$	231,818

5. ASSET ACQUISITION

On September 5, 2023, the Company finalized the acquisition of Level 2 Security, LLC, a Delaware corporation (“Level 2”), pursuant to which Level 2 will merge with and into Level 2 Security Products, Inc. a Nevada corporation wholly-owned by MetAlert, Inc.

The Company completed the merger of Level 2, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued an aggregate of 7,100,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Merger Shares”) to the owners of Level 2 and an aggregate of $200,000 in principal amount for convertible promissory notes (the “Merger Notes”), which were delivered to the owners of Level 2.

At the merger date, the Company received 2 commercial ready locate and recovery devices (GUNALERT and IF IT MOVES), approximately $40,000 in cash and 3,700 units of ready to ship product inventory of GUNALERT and IF IT MOVES, Intellectual Property of $276,157 (inclusive of trademarks, tooling, molds, and development costs), digital collateral, an online Shopify store, an Amazon account, smartphone apps, and an ongoing research and development roadmap for possible future product releases.

The Company concluded that the arrangement meets the definition of an asset acquisition rather than a business combination, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset, Level 2’s design and production of the recovery devices. In addition, the Company did not obtain any substantive processes, assembled workforce, or employees capable of producing outputs in connection with the Asset Acquisition.

F-13

The Company determined that the cost to acquire the asset was $547,900 which was recorded as acquired IPR&D. The fair value of the consideration issued consisted of the 7,100,000 shares of Common Stock valued at $347,900 and $200,000 in convertible notes. The identifiable finite-lived assets are being amortized over their useful life, which was determined to be 5 years as of the closing date.

The strategic synergy from the merger enables us to expand our target market beyond those of humans with cognitive disorders and opens the doors to entire new and much larger markets.

This technology is designed to immediately let you know through an app notification, if your asset has been touched, moved, or stolen. With none of the data ever being stored on a server, allowing for maximum privacy.

The following allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

SCHEDULE OF PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION

Assets and liabilities acquired:
Consideration given:
Convertible notes			200,000
Common stock			347,900
			547,900

Assets and liabilities acquired:
Cash			42,408
Inventory			229,335
Intangible assets:
Patents and trademarks			50,000
Tooling & molds			25,300
Website development			9,400
Software development			191,457
Intangible assets			191,457

Assets and Liabilities acquired			547,900

As part of the Level 2 Securities LLC acquisition, the Company determined the value of the IP (various tooling, product and software development, trademarks, and patents costs) at this early stage, pre-revenue, by taking the accumulated selected costs, summing them by category, and calculating each categories percent of the total, to come up with a list of capitalizable assets that had value as part of the merger. These accumulated capitalized costs were then applied an obsolescence factor to discount those values, allowing for an arm’s length, non-bargain purchase price. This allocation of the IP was done using the cost approach as the economic benefit to MetAlert are the avoided costs spent to date, and thus would not have to spend those development costs going forward ourselves.

This method is especially relevant when there are no reliable forecasts for the business at date of acquisition or said forecasts would involve a lot of speculation. We then determined that a 5-year amortization period for these assets would be considered reasonable.

6. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment, net, consists of the following:

SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

	2024			2023
	December 31,

Less: accumulated depreciation		(508,246	)		(488,254	)

Total property and equipment, net	$	18,333		$	25,780

12. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The Company has issued certain convertible notes which conversion prices with variable rates without an explicit limit to the number of shares that can be issued. However, it was determined that the Preferred A shareholders having the majority vote agreed to increase the number of authorized shares, if needed, to settle any convertible debt, and thus the liability was determined to be $0. In addition, the quantity of shares which would cause cash settlement would be such that the shares could not be rapidly absorbed by the market based on historical volume, without affecting the stock price; therefore, not meeting net settlement criteria.

13. INCOME TAXES

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not record a current or deferred income tax expense or benefit due to current and historical losses incurred by the Company. The Company’s losses before income taxes consist solely of losses from domestic operations.

Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards, and temporary differences from research and development costs for tax purposes and stock compensation. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance of approximately $5,937,000 and $5,728,000, respectively.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assessed the need for a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets and determined a full valuation allowance is required due, cumulative losses through December 31, 2024, and no history of generating taxable income. The valuation allowance increased by approximately $209,000 and $552,000 during 2024 and 2023, respectively. Deferred tax assets were calculated using the Company’s combined effective tax rate, which it estimated to be approximately 28%. The effective rate is reduced to 0% due to the full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

Utilization of the U.S. federal and state net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under Section 382 and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, due to ownership changes that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax liabilities, respectively. The Company has not completed a study to assess whether a change of ownership has occurred, or whether there have been multiple ownership changes since its formation. Any limitation may result in expiration of a portion of the net operating loss carryforwards or research and development tax credit carryforwards before utilization.

The Company files tax returns in the United States, California, and Nevada. The Company is subject to U.S. federal and state tax examinations by tax authorities for the tax years ended December 31, 2021 through present. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company has recorded no liability for unrecognized tax benefits, interest, or penalties related to federal and state income tax matters and there currently no pending tax examinations. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $21,239,000 and $20,491,000, respectively, which may be available to offset future income tax liabilities. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) will generally allow losses incurred after 2017 to be carried over indefinitely, but will generally limit the net operating loss deduction to the lesser of the net operating loss carryover or 80% of a corporation’s taxable income (subject to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). Also, there will be no carryback for losses incurred after 2017. Losses incurred prior to 2018 will generally be deductible to the extent of the lesser of a corporation’s net operating loss carryover or 100% of a corporation’s taxable income and be available for twenty years from the period the loss was generated. The Company has federal net operating losses generated following 2017 of approximately $5,500,000, which do not expire. The federal net operating losses generated prior to 2018 of $15,739,000 will expire at various dates through 2037.

F-20

During the period ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued warrants to a debt holder per the terms of their agreement. The warrant value was calculated using a Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model with the following assumptions:

	December 31, 2024
	Warrant Issued 9-8-24			Warrant Issued 9-8-24
Conversion feature:
Risk-free interest rate		4.53	%		4.28	%
Expected volatility		240.60	%		238.84	%
Expected life (in years)		5 years			5 years
Expected dividend yield		-			-
Fair Value:	$	2,236		$	1,013

The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Company uses the historical volatility of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected life of the conversion feature of the notes was based on the remaining contractual term of the notes. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its common stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its common stockholders in the future.
