NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2026 and 2025 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION

Company Description

Innovative Eyewear, Inc. (the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”), is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Florida that develops and sells cutting-edge smart eyewear – including prescription eyeglasses, ready-to-wear sunglasses, safety glasses, and sport glasses – which are designed to allow our customers to remain connected to their digital lives. We sell smart eyewear under our own Lucyd brand, which includes the Lucyd Lyte^® and Lucyd Armor product lines, as well as cobranded smart eyewear under the Nautica^® Powered by Luycd, Eddie Bauer^® Powered by Luycd, and Reebok^® Powered by Luycd product lines.

The Company was originally founded by Lucyd Ltd., a portfolio company of Tekcapital Plc through Tekcapital Europe, Ltd. (collectively, together with Lucyd Ltd., “Tekcapital and Affiliates”), which owned approximately 4% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of March 31, 2026.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 (which has been derived from audited financial statements) and the unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on March 25, 2026.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation – specifically, $5,423 of nonemployee stock-based payment expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 has been reclassified to a separate line on the condensed statement of cash flows, rather than aggregated with stock-based compensation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates, particularly given the significant uncertainties associated with the current state of international trade and the overall economic environment.

Segment Reporting

The Company has a single reportable segment, which generates revenue from the sales of smartglasses, and related accessories and apps. The Company derives revenue primarily in North America and manages its business activities on a consolidated basis. The accounting policies of our single reportable segment are the same as those for the Company as a whole.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker, as such term is defined under GAAP, is our Chief Executive Officer. The chief operating decision maker assesses performance for the single reportable segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income that also is reported on the income statement as consolidated net income. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The Company does not have intra-entity sales or transfers.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY

The Company’s business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include recession, downturn, or otherwise, changes in regulations or restrictions in imports, competition, or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.

The Company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements using monies raised through sales of eyewear and issuances of equity. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company raised approximately $1.5 million of aggregate gross proceeds through at-the-market offerings of common stock (see Note 11 for details). The Company has also entered into an agreement with a related party, under which the Company may make borrowings of up to $1.25 million (see Note 8 for details); as of March 31, 2026, the Company has not borrowed any amounts under such agreement. The Company’s forecasts and projections indicate that the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity to fund operations through at least the next 12 months. However, the Company may raise additional funds if management believes it would be beneficial to do so.

NOTE 3 – REVENUE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Revenue

Our revenue is primarily generated from the sales of prescription and non-prescription optical glasses and sunglasses, and shipping charges which are charged to the customer associated with these purchases. We sell products through our retail store resellers, distributors, on our own website Lucyd.co, and on Amazon.com. We have also recently started to generate revenue from the sale of subscriptions to the “Pro” version of our Lucyd app, which provides unlimited ChatGPT interactions and priority tech support for a monthly or annual fee.

The following table presents disaggregated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:


	2026		2025
E-commerce channels	$	741,411	$	418,117
Wholesale channels		27,066		33,553
App store subscriptions		5,084		2,831
Total revenues, net	$	773,561	$	454,501

In instances where the collectability of contractual consideration is not probable at the time of sale, the revenue is deferred on our balance sheet as a contract liability, and the associated cost of goods sold is deferred on our balance sheet as a contract asset; subsequently, we recognize such revenue and cost of goods sold as payments are received. With respect to such instances, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized $7,500 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance of $47,950 as of January 1, 2025. There was no comparable balance of such deferred revenue as of December 31, 2025 or March 31, 2026, and no such revenue recognized or deferred during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The balance of revenue for orders received but not yet fulfilled that has been deferred on our balance sheet as a contract liability was $9,336 and $55,383 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized $55,383 of revenue related to these instances, all of which was included in the contract liability balance of $55,383 as of January 1, 2026.

The balance of unearned revenue related to app subscriptions that has been deferred on our balance sheet as a contract liability was $5,633 and $4,506 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $1,802 and $1,030 of revenue, respectively, that was included in the contract liability balance of $4,506 as of January 1, 2026 and $2,401 as of January 1, 2025, respectively.

For all of our product sales, at the time of sale, we establish a reserve for returns, based on historical experience and expected future returns as well as review of individual returns received in the month following the balance sheet date; such reserve is recorded as a reduction of sales. The Company recorded an allowance for sales returns of $12,400 and $14,669 as March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are uncollateralized obligations due from customers under normal trade terms. For direct-to-consumer sales, payment is required before product is shipped. For wholesale orders, we offer “net 30” payment terms on wholesale orders of $1,500 or more in accordance with industry standards. The Company, by policy, routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers.

Accounts receivable are reported at the amount billed to the customer, net of an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is determined based upon a variety of judgments and factors. Factors considered in determining the allowance include historical collection, write-off experience, and management’s assessment of collectibility from customers, including current conditions, reasonable forecasts, and expectations of future collectability and collection efforts. Management continuously assesses the collectability of receivables and adjusts estimates based on actual experience and future expectations. Receivable balances are written-off against the allowance when such balances are deemed to be uncollectable.

A roll forward of the allowance for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is as follows:

Schedule of allowance for credit losses
	2026		2025
Balance at January 1	$	16,644	$	30,966
Bad debt expense		-		880
Write-offs		-		(87	)
Other		-		87
Balance at March 31	$	16,644	$	31,846

NOTE 4 – INVENTORY

Our inventory predominantly consists of purchased eyewear and related accessories, and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a specific identification method of inventory costing which attaches the actual cost to an identifiable unit of product. Also included within inventory as of both at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $72,864 of electronic components purchased from a third-party supplier for use by our manufacturer in their future production of our eyewear.

Provisions for excess, obsolete, or slow-moving inventory are recorded after periodic evaluation of historical sales, current economic trends, forecasted sales, estimated product life cycles, and estimated inventory levels. Such provisions were $59,000 as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Our non-product inventory consists of virtual try-on kiosks, modular display systems, and interactive LCD fixtures that have not yet been deployed at retailers, as well as certain accessories that are intended to be used as promotional items, rather than sold in the normal course of business. These items are presented in the condensed balance sheet within Other current assets as of March 31, 2026. The balance of such non-product inventory was $72,575 as of March 31, 2026.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company estimates its effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. This estimate is used to determine the income tax provision or benefit on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. The Company has not recorded an income tax provision or benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 as it maintains a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets.

NOTE 8 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND AGREEMENTS

Management Service Agreement

The Company is party to a management services agreement with Tekcapital Europe, Ltd. (an affiliate of Lucyd Ltd., whose Chief Executive Officer is the father of our Chief Executive Officer), which was originally entered into in 2020 and subsequently amended in 2022.

Once funds or services are received by the Company, it will issue a convertible note to Lucyd Ltd. that will bear interest at 10% per annum and include the option to convert the note into shares of the Company’s common stock upon certain defined events. Upon issuance, the convertible note would have had a maturity date of September 1, 2025 (subsequently amended, as described below), at which time all outstanding principal and accrued interest, if any, would be payable in full in cash or in the Company’s common stock. The Company would be able to prepay the convertible notes at any time with the written consent of Lucyd Ltd.

On March 1, 2025, the Company and Lucyd Ltd. entered into an amendment of this agreement, such that upon issuance, the convertible note would have a maturity date of September 1, 2026. There were no other changes to the terms and provisions of the agreement.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

License Agreements

In 2022 and 2023, we entered into various multi-year license agreements which grant us the right to sell certain branded smart eyewear, including the Nautica, Eddie Bauer, and Reebok brands worldwide. These agreements require us to pay royalties based on a percentage of net retail and wholesale sales during the period of the license, and also require guaranteed minimum royalty payments. The agreements have base terms of 10 years but are cancellable at the option of the Company during the fifth year (i.e., 2027 and 2028).

The aggregate future minimum payments due under these license agreements are as follows:

Schedule of future minimum payments due
Remainder of 2026	$	135,000
2027		1,290,000
2028		1,543,000
2029		1,778,000
2030		2,037,000
Thereafter (through 2033)		6,092,000
Total	$	12,875,000

The Company recognized $208,500 and $133,336 of expense related to all license agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Long-Term Payment Plan for Information Technology System and Services

The Company has entered into a long-term payment plan agreement with Oracle for the payment of costs related to the implementation of the Company’s new ERP system (which went live in April 2025) and related cloud services. Under this agreement, the Company is obligated to make payments of $4,035 per month through July 2027. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s remaining obligation under this arrangement was $68,902, of which $48,424 is included within Accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed balance sheet, and $20,478 is reflected within Non-Current Liabilities in the accompanying condensed balance sheet.

Leases

Our executive offices are located at 11900 Biscayne Blvd., Suite 630 Miami, Florida 33181. Our executive offices are provided to us by a related party (see Note 8). We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations.

Other Commitments

See related party management services agreement discussed in Note 8.

Legal Matters

We are not currently the subject of any material pending legal proceedings; however, we may from time to time become a party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.

International Trade and Tariffs

Beginning in April 2025, the U.S. government announced new or increased tariffs on goods imported from various countries to the U.S., and countries subject to such tariffs have imposed or may in the future impose retaliatory tariffs and other trade measures. These developments negatively impacted our results of operations during the year ended December 31, 2025. Management has taken various actions to mitigate the negative impacts of tariffs on our financial results; these actions have been largely successful thus far. However, the current international geopolitical climate related to tariffs is fluid and continues to evolve, and we cannot provide any assurance that actions that have been taken by management or that may be taken by management in the future will be successful in future periods. As such, we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate impacts that international trade and tariff developments may have on our business and financial results in the future, but those impacts could be material.

In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling invalidating some of the tariffs imposed by the U.S. government; however, the ultimate availability, timing, and amount of any potential refunds of such tariffs remain highly uncertain and are subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. As such, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact, if any, on our business and financial results at this time.

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company calculates earnings/(loss) per share data by calculating the quotient of earnings/(loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective period. Due to the net losses for all periods presented in the unaudited condensed statements of operations, all shares underlying the common stock options, common stock warrants, and related party convertible debt were excluded from the earnings per share calculation due to their anti-dilutive effect.

The calculation of net earnings/(loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is as follows:

	2026			2025
Basic and diluted:
Net loss	$	(2,309,368	)	$	(1,778,703	)
Weighted-average number of common shares		6,245,941			2,453,447

Item 2. 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 our financial statements and the related notes and the other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Overview

Executive Summary and Outlook

●

We achieved strong top-line growth in the first quarter of 2026, with revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increasing by 70% as compared to the comparable period in 2025. This represents an acceleration from the full-year 2024 and full-year 2025 growth rates of 42% and 63%, respectively, and demonstrates continued positive momentum across the Company’s smart eyewear portfolio. The significant growth in revenues during the first quarter of 2026 reflects continued expansion of consumer demand for our products, especially our award-winning Lucyd Armor smart safety glasses line.

●

Our gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2026 was 23%, compared to 49% in the first quarter of 2025. The first quarter of 2025 notably included the positive impact of certain credits and inventory adjustments, which did not recur in subsequent quarters, while the current quarter’s gross profit is comparable to our gross profit margins for full fiscal year 2025 and the second half of fiscal year 2025 of 21% and 22%, respectively.

●

Other operating expenses increased by 20% in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by higher general and administrative expenses – largely related to employee compensation, plus higher amounts paid to outside service providers for various corporate and compliance functions – partially offset by lower research and development costs.

●

We believe we are strongly positioned for further revenue growth in 2026, based on the following recent developments:

○

In April 2026, we announced the launch of the new Reebok^® Powered by Lucyd optical collection, for which we have secured several new retail partners.

○

We are currently in discussions with numerous other retailers – including big box stores, traditional optical chains, and hardware and automotive chains – to introduce Lucyd Armor and Reebok Powered by Lucyd products into stores across the U.S. and Canada in 2026.

○

Several leading industrial and logistics companies are testing Lucyd products for their workforce use.

○

We have also recently launched a new white-label offering, to enable retailers and legacy eyewear brands to quickly introduce smart eyewear products in partnership with our company. We already have an affirmative commitment from a customer for a white-label line of smart safety glasses.

○

Smart eyewear adoption is continuing to increase rapidly in the U.S., with a recent third-party study indicating that while only 4% of online adults had ever used smartglasses in 2024, that number increased to 17% in 2025.

General Product and Corporate Overview

We develop and sell cutting-edge smart eyewear – including prescription eyeglasses, ready-to-wear sunglasses, safety glasses, and sport glasses. Our smart eyewear products enable the wearer to listen to music, take and make calls, and use voice assistants and ChatGPT to perform many common smartphone tasks hands-free.

Our mission is to Upgrade Your Eyewear^® by creating smart eyewear for all-day wear that looks like and is priced similarly to designer eyewear, but is also lightweight and comfortable, and enables the wearer to remain connected to their digital lives. Our smart eyewear is a fusion of headphones with glasses, bringing vision correction and protection together with digital connectivity and clear audio, while also offering a solution for listening to music outdoors (as compared to in-ear headphones). The convenience of having a Bluetooth headset and comfortable glasses in one, especially for those who are already accustomed to all-day eyewear use, offers a lifestyle upgrade at a price most consumers can afford.

Since the initial launch of Lucyd Lyte in 2021, we have sold thousands of our smartglasses, and have continued to expand our product offerings over the years – including the launch of Lucyd Lyte 2.0 and Lyte XL smartglasses in 2023, the launch of the Lucyd Armor, Nautica^® Powered by Lucyd, and Eddie Bauer ^® Powered by Lucyd smart eyewear collections in 2024, the launch of the Reebok^® Powered by Lucyd sport collection in 2025, and the recent launch of the Reebok^® Powered by Lucyd optical collection in April 2026. The variety of smartglasses we offer underpins our goal to provide a smart alternative for all of the major types of eyewear used by consumers, offering a seamless upgrade in styles of eyewear they already enjoy. We currently offer an expansive line of 37 different models of glasses and several accessories.

Our products are currently sold through two major types of channels:

E-commerce – primarily via our website (Lucyd.co) and Amazon.com, as well as through various other websites such as Walmart.com, Target.com, BestBuy.com, and DicksSportingGoods.com; and,

A growing network of retail stores, including independent eyewear stores and national eyewear chains – we currently have over 400 retail stores selling our products (across over 300 unique wholesale accounts), and are continually working to expand our network. We increased the number of retail store locations in which our products are sold from over 350 at the beginning of 2025 to over 400 by the end of the 2025, and we remain optimistic that partnership with a national retailer will further increase our store count significantly in 2026.

All of our products are designed in Miami and manufactured in Asia. We view our business model as capital light, as we have elected not to build our own manufacturing facilities and Company-owned retail distribution, but rather leverage existing sources of production and retail distribution. This allows us to focus on our core competency of smart eyewear design.

Software and Apps

The Lucyd app, available for iOS and Android, is a free application that enables the user to converse with the extremely popular ChatGPT AI language model on our glasses, to instantly gain the benefit of one of the world’s most powerful AI assistants in a hands-free ergonomic interface. First launched in 2023, the app deploys a powerful and unique Siri and Bixby integration with the Open AI API for ChatGPT, developed internally by the Company. The Company has filed a patent application related to this software.

In 2024, we added a “Pro” version of the app, which provides unlimited ChatGPT interactions and priority tech support for a monthly or annual fee. We also launched a new feature called “Walkie” for the Lucyd app in 2024, which enables thousands of users to join each other on walkie-talkie style communication channels. This feature was designed with our Lucyd Armor safety glass product in mind, to enable coworking teams to communicate freely on smart eyewear.

In 2025, we updated and enhanced the Lucyd app’s Walkie feature, enabling premium subscribers access to secure and private walkie channels, providing businesses and organizations with a powerful tool to communicate confidentially and seamlessly through Lucyd smart eyewear. Also during 2025, we added a new translation feature to the Lucyd app, which allows for voice-based translation between 17 languages in real time.

In the first quarter of 2026, the Lucyd app received an overhaul to the user interface, with general improvements to usability. The app has been redeveloped as an "app store within an app," enabling an expansive and highly customizable Lucyd software platform to be housed conveniently within the iOS and Android app stores. The Company envisions that this new structure of the app will support third party applet development for Lucyd eyewear partners and users in the near future, and help in attracting developer talent to the platform by giving them a way to monetize new features and content for Lucyd eyewear.

We believe these developments make our Lucyd eyewear perhaps the smartest smartglasses available today, and represent a significant marketing opportunity for our core smartglass products. The Lucyd app delivers an updated user experience over time without requiring costly hardware changes. Additionally, the overall flexibility of Bluetooth connectivity and ability to connect to a variety of voice assistants, including device-native assistants and AI language models, make our glasses a “device- and AI- agnostic” peripheral suitable for use with almost any desktop or mobile computing platform. This aspect of our products makes them a highly compatible interface accessory and distinguishes them from accessories designed to enhance a specific platform, such as Apple AirPods for iOS or gaming headsets for desktop computers.

Kiosks and Retail Fixtures

We provide certain retail partners with point-of-sale display materials, including virtual try-on kiosks, modular display units, and interactive LCD fixtures designed to support in-store product education and demonstrations. Many of our retail fixtures allow for customization to suit our retail store partners’ needs, and our newer fixtures feature a proprietary kiosk app that we developed in-house.

We currently offer three key display systems: (1) Hero Displays, which are unpowered branding stands, (2) Counter Kiosks, which offer digital and interactive demo experiences, and (3) the Lucyd Kiosk, which is a freestanding screen for larger stores. Across all display systems offered by the Company, approximately 100 displays have been deployed to vendors as of March 31, 2026.

Key Performance Indicators

Store Count (B2B) – We believe that the number of retail stores selling our products is an important indicator of wholesale growth. The Company has increased the number of retail store locations in which its products are sold from over 350 at the beginning of 2025 to over 400 by the end of the 2025. We remain optimistic that partnership with a national retailer will increase our store count significantly in 2026.

Customer Ratings (B2C) – The Company’s latest products are receiving higher ratings online compared to our previous products, indicating that customers are appreciative of improvements in product design, functionality, and build quality.

Revenues

Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $773,561, representing an increase of 70% as compared to revenues of $454,501 during the three months ended March 31, 2025. This year-over-year growth in revenues represents an acceleration from the full-year 2025 growth rate of approximately 63%, and reflects continued positive momentum across the Company’s smart eyewear portfolio.

The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to significant volume increases, which were predominantly driven by our award-winning and highly popular Lucyd Armor line of smart safety glasses. We sold approximately 4,100 units of Lucyd Armor smartglasses in the current quarter, which represented approximately two-thirds of our total smartglass units sold during the quarter. According to a recent third-party analysis, Lucyd Armor holds an approximate 44% market share of smart safety glasses on Amazon.com, and to the Company’s knowledge, remains the only smart safety glass on the platform with full safety certification in the U.S., Canada, and the European Union. We believe this product line will continue to grow in future quarters, as several leading industrial and logistics companies are testing Lucyd products for their workforce use. The volume increases from Lucyd Armor were partially offset by volume declines in certain of our other smartglass product lines.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately 56% of sales were processed on our online store (Lucyd.co), 40% on Amazon.com, and 3% through reseller partners, with approximately 1% of our net revenues generated from Lucyd “Pro” app subscriptions. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, approximately 40% of sales were processed on our online store (Lucyd.co), 52% on Amazon.com, and 7% through reseller partners, with approximately 1% of our net revenues generated from app subscriptions. The decline in the proportional share of reseller sales versus the prior year quarter reflects the combination of (i) the uncertainty of the current economic environment in light of the current tariff and international trade situation, which we believe has led to delays in getting large retailers to commit to placing orders for new products such as ours, and (ii) an intentional shift by the Company away from small optical accounts and the timing of purchase orders from prospective big-box and home-improvement retailers currently under evaluation.

Overall, e-commerce sales remain to be the most material portion of our sales since inception; however, we continue to believe that the wholesale channel is the most scalable and most promising long-term opportunity for future growth. To date, several factors have constrained wholesale sell-through: (i) the optical retail ecosystem is fragmented and insurance-driven, which supports higher margins on conventional frames and can compress retailer margins on smart eyewear at mainstream price points; (ii) smart eyewear requires interactive merchandising and in-store demos to educate consumers, which lengthens onboarding lead times; and (iii) national retailers typically require category sell-through evidence, certifications, and planogram resets with long decision cycles. However, large national retailers have recently started to recognize smart eyewear as proven category and are starting to move in the direction of selling more smart eyewear. We are currently prioritizing larger retailers whose economics are more aligned with consumer electronics and safety categories, including home-improvement and big-box stores, and believe that – with our recently expanded Lucyd Armor and Reebok^® product lines – we have the product and merchandising set needed to scale wholesale placements over time. Therefore, we expect that e-commerce channels (Lucyd.co and Amazon) will remain a larger proportional share of our revenue in the near to medium term, with wholesale contributions increasing over time. In the long term, we anticipate that wholesale sales will comprise a larger proportional share of our revenue, which should bring consistent, large-scale orders with minimal marketing costs.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our total cost of goods sold increased to $598,116 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $233,968 for the prior year quarter. This year-over-year increase of 156% was primarily driven by the combination (i) the increase in the volume of products sold, as discussed above, and (ii) the fact that the prior year quarter amount was positively impacted by certain credits and inventory adjustments totalling approximately $132,000, which did not recur in subsequent quarters. These factors, which led to the year-over-year increase in cost of goods sold, were partially offset by the ongoing improvements in product sourcing costs for both frames and prescription lenses – largely related to realization of greater economies of scale as our manufacturing order volumes have grown and our cost per unit has decreased.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2026 included but was not limited to the cost of frames (inclusive of the cost of tariffs, importation costs, and other inventory adjustments) of $432,814; the cost of prescription lenses incurred with our third-party vendor of $67,065; commissions, affiliate referral fees, and e-commerce platform fees of $58,528; shipping and logistics costs of $25,895; and product certification costs of $13,320. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2025 included but was not limited to the cost of frames of $72,869; cost of prescription lenses incurred with our third-party vendor of $68,051; commissions, affiliate referral fees, and e-commerce platform fees of $31,043; shipping and logistics costs of $57,163; and quality assurance costs related to our products sold of $4,002.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit for the current quarter was $175,445, compared to $220,533 for the prior year quarter. Our gross profit margin was 23% in the current quarter and 49% in the prior year quarter, representing a decrease of approximately 26 percentage points from the prior year period. This decrease in profitability compared with the prior year quarter was predominantly attributable to the aforementioned positive impact in the prior year quarter of certain credits and inventory adjustments, which did not recur in subsequent quarters. Overall, the gross profit margin for the current quarter was relatively consistent with our gross profit margin for full fiscal year 2025 (21%) and the second half of fiscal year 2025 (22%).

In the near to medium term, we anticipate growth in total cost of goods sold corresponding with anticipated future growth in revenues, and do not expect significant decreases in gross profit margins from current levels. We are continually refining our product mix with sales data, and anticipate further reducing our unit costs by focusing on the highest volume, market-tested styles. Additionally, we continue to monitor trade policy and have contingency sourcing options in Southeast Asia should the U.S.‑China tariff conditions materially change.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses increased by 20% to $2,547,210 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $2,124,324 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to the following:

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased by $498,703 or approximately 46% to $1,590,051 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $1,091,348 for the prior year quarter. This increase was mainly attributable to the combination of (i) higher amounts paid to outside service providers for various corporate and compliance functions, including public and investor relations, audit and accounting, and legal services (approximately $178,000), (ii) higher employee compensation (including stock-based compensation) and benefit costs (approximately $137,000) and (iii) higher payments due under our multi-year license agreements, which increased our licensing expense by approximately $75,000, to approximately $209,000 for the current quarter.

Non-cash expenses – including depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation – comprised approximately 11% and 14% of our total general and administrative expenses in the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively.

Sales and marketing expenses

Our sales and marketing expenses for the current quarter were approximately $784,050, essentially flat compared with the prior year quarter expense of $787,400. We continue to strategically allocate our marketing spending between a combination of key events and trade shows (to grow and expand our network of potential business partners and retailers), paid ads (to build brand awareness, attract new customers, and increase our market share), and supporting launches of new products. We utilize data-driven decision-making to refine and optimize our marketing campaigns, in order to make our spending in this area more efficient, thus maximizing returns on our marketing investments.

Research and development costs

Our research and development costs were $138,109 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $210,576 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing a year-over-year decrease of approximately 34%, primarily driven by the timing of product development cycles. We are continuously developing improvements on our core product lines, as well as new modalities of smart eyewear. The costs of these developments are primarily connected to molding and tooling costs with our manufacturing partners, as well as component sourcing and testing. These costs are ongoing and vary quarter to quarter; such costs generally tend to decrease after an initial collection launch, since the majority of research and development costs are borne in the initial production.

Related party management fee

Our related party management fee was $35,000 for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, based on the terms of the management services agreement between us and Tekcapital.

Other Income (Expense), net

Total other income (expense), net was $62,397 in the current quarter, reflecting a decline of approximately 50% from $125,088 in the prior year quarter. These amounts were primarily comprised of dividends from our investments in money market funds and interest income from investments in U.S. Treasury bills. The year-over-year decrease in other income (expense), net was primarily attributable to lower dividend yields from money market funds and lower interest rates on U.S. Treasury bills as compared to the prior year quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $4.4 million and $6.5 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our total overall liquidity (cash and cash equivalents plus investments in short-term U.S. Treasury bills), which management believes provides a more accurate depiction of the Company’s liquidity and economic position, was approximately $5.7 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

Our working capital (current assets less current liabilities) was approximately $7.7 million and $8.4 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

We believe our total overall liquidity, plus the availability to borrow funds via our related party agreement with Lucyd Ltd., will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.

The Company did not have any debt obligations as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.

Cash Flow

	March 31,			March 31,

Net cash flows from operating activities	$	(2,490,663	)	$	(2,311,049	)

Net cash flows from financing activities		1,403,445			-
Net Change in Cash	$	(2,132,892	)	$	2,629,183

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are primarily reflective of our net loss for the period, resulting from various operating costs to support and grow our business. We continue to make significant investments in marketing spending in order to build brand awareness, attract new customers, and increase our market share.

Total use of cash in operating activities during the current quarter was of a similar order of magnitude and roughly comparable with the prior year quarter; however, the current quarter’s use of cash in operating activities notably reflects higher payments made under multi-year licensing agreements, whereas the prior year quarter’s use of cash in operating activities is more reflective of payments made to purchase inventory and the pay down of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Net cash flows from investing activities in both the current quarter and prior year quarter primarily reflect the timing of $1.3 million of purchases and $5.0 million of redemptions, respectively, of short-term U.S. Treasury bills, which do not impact our total overall liquidity (as previously defined above). The current quarter’s cash flows from investing activities also include the $0.3 million repayment received from a short-term loan that was made to a related party the fourth quarter of 2025.

Net cash flows from financing activities for the current quarter are primarily attributable to at-the-market offerings of common stock (as described in more detail below).

Equity Transactions

At-the-Market Offerings

The Company has previously entered into an at-the-market offering agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (as sales agent) relating to the sale of common stock.

In January 2026, the Company sold 820,800 shares of common stock and received approximately $1.5 million of gross proceeds before deducting sales agent commissions and offering expenses. The net proceeds received by the Company from these transactions amounted to approximately $1.4 million, and will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Currently, there is no remaining availability under this at-the-market facility for future sales of common stock. We may seek to open a new at-the-market facility by filing a new registration statement in the future, and raise additional funds under such facility in the future, if management believes it would be beneficial to do so.

Other Factors

We expect that operating losses could continue in the foreseeable future as we continue to invest in the expansion and development of our business. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents (including the proceeds from the equity offerings described above), plus the availability to borrow funds via the related party agreement with Lucyd Ltd., will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months. However, our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, growth in the number of retail store customers, licenses, the needs of our e-commerce business and retail distribution network, expansion of our product and software offerings, and the timing of investments in technology and personnel to support the overall growth of our business. We expect a modest increase in marketing and retail-support expenses over the next twelve months, with such investments being discretionary and adjustable as needed. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to negotiate terms acceptable to us or at all. Geopolitical and macroeconomic factors could cause disruption in the global financial markets, which could reduce our ability to access capital and negatively affect our liquidity in the future. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required, or if we cannot expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities because we lack sufficient capital, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows would be adversely affected.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2026, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
