All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein, including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.

Moreover, we operate in a highly regulated, very competitive, and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

 

We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and assumptions about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short term and long term business operations, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this prospectus, and in particular, the risks discussed below and under the heading “Risk Factors” and those discussed in other documents we file with the SEC which are incorporated by reference herein.

 

We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

Company Background

 

Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. is a next-generation advertising technology, data compliance and intelligence company which operates through our various proprietary software platforms. Our product solutions are comprised of three proprietary software platforms:

 

  · Advertising Technology Operating System (ATOS Platform)
     
  · Data Intelligence Platform
     
  · Publisher Platform for Monetization and Compliance

 

For a complete description of our business, see “ Business” herein.

 

We are now focused on developing a gateway into Casinos, Gaming, Big Data, AI and AdTech through our relationship with Context Networks and partnerships like River City Amusements. We are in the process of delivering next-generation advertising experiences inside real-world venues across the U.S.

 

1. Strong Footprint in Casinos and Gaming Venues

 

We are powering digital advertising directly on gaming machines and digital signage within casinos, taverns, and amusement venues.

 

1.In partnership with Context Networks and River City Amusements, we have helped to launch in-venue advertising across Wisconsin taverns and restaurants.
2.These ad units are integrated into slot machines and gaming displays, delivering dynamic and monetizable content while players are engaged.This direct access to in-venue screens gives us a unique channel for brand exposure in an industry with very little traditional advertising.

 

2. Big Data-Driven Targeting

 

Our platforms are built to gather, segment, and apply audience data to optimize campaign delivery. Whether it's geo-targeting customers by ZIP code or tracking user behavior across campaigns, we help advertisers fine-tune messages with measurable return on investment. This allows:

 

1.Local businesses to run highly relevant, localized promotions,
2.National brands to tap into high-traffic, high-engagement entertainment environments, and
3.Campaign performance tracking across venues

 

3. Expanding Retail Media Footprint

 

The initial Wisconsin deployment with River City Amusements spans 38 venues with over 150 digital screens. That number is expected to grow to over 70 venues with more than 340 screens—and counting. This expansion is expected to transform underutilized digital screens in restaurants, bars, and amusement centers into revenue-generating ad inventory, representing a new wave of retail media—offering programmatic-style efficiency in real-world environments.

 

4. AdTech Infrastructure for the Real World

 

We provide a full-stack advertising solution consisting of the following:

 

1.Dynamic creative delivery based on context (location, time of day, event triggers),
2.Cross-channel extensions including mobile and connected TV (CTV), and
3.Measurement and analytics to optimize campaign performance.

 

Unlike typical digital advertising, which depends solely online, we bring the power of digital targeting and measurement into physical spaces where consumers spend time and money.

 

 

 2 

 

 

5. A Convergence of High-Growth Sectors

 

We are at the intersection of four fast-moving industries:

 

Sector Mobiquity's Strategic Role
   
Casino/Slots Gaming First to deploy ad units directly on gaming machines
   
AI & Big Data Uses consumer behavior insights to enhance targeting and delivery
   
AdTech Provides a tech stack for campaign delivery, measurement, and scale
   
Retail Media Converts real-world entertainment venues into monetized ad space

 

We are helping to transform how advertising reaches consumers in high-engagement environments like casinos, bars, and gaming venues. With a rapidly expanding footprint and a data-driven advertising model, we have access to multiple growth markets through a single public company.

(h) if at any time the Company is not eligible to transfer its Common Stock electronically as DWAC shares.

 

The ELOC Purchase Agreement terminates as follows:

 

(a) If pursuant to or within the meaning of any bankruptcy law, the Company commences a voluntary case or any Person commences a proceeding against the Company, a custodian is appointed for the Company or for all or substantially all of its property, or the Company makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, any of which would be an event of default, and shall automatically terminate without any liability or payment to the Company without further action or notice by any person;

 

(b) In the event that the commencement of the ELOC Purchase Agreement shall not have occurred on or before December 31, 2025;

 

(c) for any reason or for no reason by delivering notice to ClearThink electing to terminate or on the Maturity Date; or

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Before investing in our Common Stock, you should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the other information in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes. In addition, we may face additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or which as of the date of this registration statement we might not consider significant, which may adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline due to any of these risks or uncertainties, and you may lose part or all of your investment. Potential risks and uncertainties that could affect our operating results and financial condition include, without limitation, the following:

 

Risks Relating to our Business Operations

 

We have a history of operating losses, and our management has concluded that factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and our auditor has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its audit report for the past several fiscal years.

 

To date, we have not been profitable and have incurred significant losses and cash flow deficits. For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, we reported net losses of $2,295,987, $8,593,182 and $6,533,117, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities of $1,318,996, $2,406,881 and $4,395,868, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, we had an aggregate accumulated deficit of $227,929,508. Our operating losses for the past several years are primarily attributable to the transformation of our company into an advertising technology corporation. We can provide no assurances that our operations will generate consistent or predictable revenue or be profitable in the foreseeable future. Our management has concluded that our historical recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations as well as our dependence on private equity and other financings raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and our auditor has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its audit report for the past several fiscal years. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These adjustments would likely include substantial impairment of the carrying amount of our assets and potential contingent liabilities that may arise if we are unable to fulfill various operational commitments. In addition, the value of our securities would be greatly impaired. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon generating sufficient cash flow from operations and obtaining additional capital and financing. If our ability to generate cash flow from operations is delayed or reduced and we are unable to raise additional funding from other sources, we may be unable to continue in business even if this offering is successful. For further discussion about our ability to continue as a going concern and our plan for future liquidity.

 

We cannot predict our future capital needs and we may not be able to secure additional financing.

 

We have substantial funds since formation to support our transformation from an integrated marketing company to a technology company. Since we might be unable to generate recurring or predictable revenue or cash flow to fund our operations, we will likely need to seek additional (perhaps substantial) equity or debt financing even following this offering to provide the capital required to maintain or expand our operations. We expect that we will also need additional funding for developing products and services, increasing our sales and marketing capabilities, and acquiring complementary companies, technologies, and assets (there being no such acquisitions which we have identified or are pursuing as of the date of this Prospectus), as well as for working capital requirements and other operating and general corporate purposes. We cannot predict our future capital needs with precision, and we may not be able to secure additional financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all, which could lead to termination of our business. If we elect to raise additional funds or additional funds are required, we may seek to raise funds from time to time through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or other financing alternatives. Additional equity or debt financing may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we will be prevented from pursuing operational development and commercialization efforts and our ability to generate revenues and achieve or sustain profitability will be substantially harmed.

If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our shareholders will experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, or declaring dividends. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms, such as liquidation and other preferences, which are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected, and we may be unable to continue our operations. Failure to secure additional financing on favorable terms could have severe adverse consequences to us.

 

Forecasts of our revenue are difficult.

 

When purchasing our products and services, our clients and prospects are often faced with a significant commitment of capital, the need to integrate new software and/or hardware platforms and other changes in company-wide operational procedures, all of which result in cautious deliberation and evaluation by prospective clients, longer sales cycles, and delays in completing transactions. Additional delays result from the significant up-front expenses and substantial time, effort, and other resources necessary for our clients to implement our solutions. For example, depending on the size of a prospective client’s business and its needs, a sales cycle can range from two weeks to 12 months. Because of these longer sales cycles, revenues and operating results may vary significantly from period to period. As a result, it is often difficult to accurately forecast our revenues for any fiscal period as it is not always possible for us to predict the fiscal period in which sales will actually be completed. This difficulty in predicting revenue, combined with the revenue fluctuations we may experience from period to period, can adversely affect and cause substantial fluctuations in our stock price.

 

The reliability of our product solutions is dependent on data from third parties and the integrity and quality of that data.

 

Much of the data that we use is licensed from third-party data suppliers, and we are dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary data licenses on commercially reasonable terms. We could suffer material adverse consequences if our data suppliers were to withhold their data from us. For example, data suppliers could withhold their data from us if there is a competitive reason to do so; if we breach our contract with a supplier; if they are acquired by one of our competitors; if legislation is passed restricting the use or dissemination of the data they provide; or if judicial interpretations are issued restricting use of such data. Additionally, we could terminate relationships with our data suppliers if they fail to adhere to our data quality standards. If a substantial number of data suppliers were to withdraw or withhold their data from us, or if we sever ties with our data suppliers based on their inability to meet our data standards, our ability to provide products and services to our clients could be materially adversely impacted, which could result in decreased revenues.

 

The reliability of our solutions depends upon the integrity and quality of the data in our database. A failure in the integrity or a reduction in the quality of our data could cause a loss of customer confidence in our solutions, resulting in harm to our brand, loss of revenue and exposure to legal claims. We may experience an increase in risks to the integrity of our database and quality of our data as we move toward real-time, non-identifiable, consumer-powered data through our products. We must continue to invest in our database to improve and maintain the quality, timeliness, and coverage of the data if we are to maintain our competitive position. Failure to do so could result in a material adverse effect on our business, growth, and revenue prospects.

Our business practices with respect to data and consumer protection could give rise to liabilities or reputational harm as a result of governmental regulation, legal requirements or industry standards relating to consumer privacy, data protection and consumer protection.

 

Federal, state, and international laws and regulations govern the collection, use, retention, sharing and security of data that we collect. We strive to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, self-regulatory requirements, and legal obligations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection, including those relating to the use of data for marketing purposes. It is possible, however, that these requirements may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or our practices. We cannot assure you that our practices have complied, comply, or will comply fully with all such laws, regulations, requirements, and obligations. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply with federal, state, or international laws or regulations, including laws and regulations regulating privacy, data security, marketing communications or consumer protection, or other policies, self-regulatory requirements or legal obligations could result in harm to our reputation, a loss in business, and proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities, consumers, retailers, or others. We may also be contractually liable to indemnify and hold harmless performance marketing networks or other third parties from the costs or consequences of noncompliance with any laws, regulations, self-regulatory requirements, or other legal obligations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection or any inadvertent or unauthorized use or disclosure of data that we store or handle as part of operating our business. Any such proceeding or action, and any related indemnification obligation, could hurt our reputation, force us to incur significant expenses in defense of these proceedings, distract our management, increase our costs of doing business and cause consumers and retailers to decrease their use of our marketplace, and may result in the imposition of monetary liability. Furthermore, the costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the data and privacy laws, regulations, standards, and policies that are applicable to the businesses of our clients may limit the use and adoption of, and reduce the overall demand for, our products.

 

A significant breach of the confidentiality of the information we hold or of the security of our or our customers’, suppliers’, or other partners’ computer systems could be detrimental to our business, reputation, and results of operations. Our business requires the storage, transmission, and utilization of data. Although we have security and associated procedures, our databases may be subject to unauthorized access by third parties. Such third parties could attempt to gain entry to our systems for the purpose of stealing data or disrupting the systems. We believe we have taken appropriate measures to protect our systems from intrusion, but we cannot be certain that advances in criminal capabilities, discovery of new vulnerabilities in our systems and attempts to exploit those vulnerabilities, physical system or facility break-ins and data thefts or other developments will not compromise or breach the technology protecting our systems and the information we possess. Furthermore, we face increasing cyber security risks as we receive and collect data from new sources, and as we and our customers continue to develop and operate in cloud-based information technology environments. In the event that our protection efforts are unsuccessful, and we experience an unauthorized disclosure of confidential information or the security of such information or our systems are compromised, we could suffer substantial harm. Any breach could result in one or more third parties obtaining unauthorized access to our customers’ data or our data, including personally identifiable information, intellectual property and other confidential business information. Such a security breach could result in operational disruptions that impair our ability to meet our clients’ requirements, which could result in decreased revenues. Also, whether there is an actual or a perceived breach of our security, our reputation could suffer irreparable harm, causing our current and prospective clients to reject our products and services in the future and deterring data suppliers from supplying us data. Further, we could be forced to expend significant resources in response to a security breach, including repairing system damage, increasing cyber security protection costs by deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, and litigating and resolving legal claims, all of which could divert the attention of our management and key personnel away from our business operations. In any event, a significant security breach could materially harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

 

Significant system disruptions, loss of data center capacity or interruption of telecommunication links could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

 

Our product platforms are hosted and managed on Amazon Web Service (AWS) and takes full advantage of open standards for processing, storage, security, and big data technology. Specifically, our data intelligence platform uses the following AWS services: EC2, Lambda, Kafka, Kinesis, S3, Storm, Spark, Machine Learning, RDS, Redshift, Elastic Map Reduction, CloudWatch, DataBricks, and Elastic Search Service with built-in Kibana integration. Significant system disruptions, loss of data center capacity or interruption of telecommunication links could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our business is heavily dependent upon highly complex data processing capability. The ability of our platform hosts and managers to protect these data centers against damage or interruption from fire, flood, tornadoes, power loss, telecommunications or equipment failure or other disasters is beyond our control and is critical to our ability to succeed.

We rely on information technology to operate our business and maintain competitiveness, and any failure to adapt to technological developments or industry trends could harm our business.

 

We depend on the use of information technologies and systems. As our operations grow in size and scope, we will be required to continuously improve and upgrade our systems and infrastructure while maintaining or improving the reliability and integrity of our infrastructure. Our future success also depends on our ability to adapt our systems and infrastructure to meet rapidly evolving consumer trends and demands while continuing to improve the performance, features and reliability of our solutions in response to competitive services and product offerings. The emergence of alternative platforms will require new investment in technology. New developments in other areas, such as cloud computing, could also make it easier for competition to enter our markets due to lower up-front technology costs. In addition, we may not be able to maintain our existing systems or replace or introduce new technologies and systems as quickly as we would like or in a cost-effective manner.

 

Our technology and associated business processes may contain undetected errors, which could limit our ability to provide our services and diminish the attractiveness of our offerings.

 

Our technology may contain undetected errors, defects, or bugs. As a result, our customers or end users may discover errors or defects in our technology or the systems incorporating our technology may not operate as expected. We may discover significant errors or defects in the future that we may not be able to fix. Our inability to fix any of those errors could limit our ability to provide our solution, impair the reputation of our brand and diminish the attractiveness of our product offerings to our customers.  In addition, we may utilize third party technology or components in our products, and we rely on those third parties to provide support services to us. Failure of those third parties to provide necessary support services could materially adversely impact our business.

 

We need to protect our intellectual property, or our operating results may suffer.

 

Third parties may infringe our intellectual property and we may suffer competitive injury or expend significant resources enforcing our rights. As our business is focused on data-driven results and analytics, we rely heavily on proprietary information technology. Our proprietary portfolio consists of various intellectual property including source code, trade secrets, and know-how. The extent to which such rights can be protected is substantially based on federal, state and common law rights as well as contractual restrictions. The steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not prevent the misappropriation of our proprietary information or deter independent development of similar technologies by others. If we do not enforce our intellectual property rights vigorously and successfully, our competitive position may suffer which could harm our operating results.

 

We could incur substantial costs and disruption to our business as a result of any claim of infringement of another party’s intellectual property rights, which could harm our business and operating results.

 

From time to time, third parties may claim that one or more of our products or services infringe their intellectual property rights. We analyze and take action in response to such claims on a case-by-case basis. Any dispute or litigation regarding patents or other intellectual property could be costly and time-consuming due to the complexity of our technology and the uncertainty of intellectual property litigation, which could divert the attention of our management and key personnel away from our business operations. A claim of intellectual property infringement could force us to enter into a costly or restrictive license agreement, which might not be available under acceptable terms or at all or could subject us to significant damages or to an injunction against development and sale of certain of our products or services.

We face intense and growing competition, which could result in reduced sales and reduced operating margins and limit our market share.

 

We compete in the data, marketing, and research business and in all other facets of our business against small, medium and large companies throughout the United States. Some examples include companies such as LiveRamp, The TradeDesk and OneTrust. If we are unable to successfully compete for new business our revenue growth and operating margins may decline. The market for our advertising and marketing technology operating system platform is competitive. We believe that our competitors’ product offerings do not provide the end-to-end solutions our product solutions do, and their minimum fees are substantially higher than ours for a comparative suite of solutions. However, barriers to entry in our markets are relatively low. With the introduction of new technologies and market entrants, we expect competition to intensify in the future. Some of these competitors may be in a better position to develop new products and strategies that more quickly and effectively respond to changes in customer requirements in our markets. The introduction of competent, competitive products, pricing strategies or other technologies by our competitors that are superior to or that achieve greater market acceptance than our products and services could adversely affect our business. Our failure to meet a client’s expectations in any type of contract may result in an unprofitable engagement, which could adversely affect our operating results and result in future rejection of our products and services by current and prospective clients. Some of our principal competitors offer their products at a lower price, which may result in pricing pressures. These pricing pressures and increased competition generally could result in reduced sales, reduced margins or the failure of our product and service offerings to achieve or maintain more widespread market acceptance.

 

Many of our competitors are substantially larger than we are and have significantly greater financial, technical, and marketing resources, and have established direct and indirect channels of distribution. As a result, they are able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than we can.

 

We can provide no assurance that our business will be able to maintain a competitive technology advantage in the future.

 

Our ability to generate revenues is substantially based upon our proprietary intellectual property that we own and protect through trade secrets and agreements with our employees to maintain ownership of any improvements to our intellectual property. Our ability to generate revenues now and in the future is based upon maintaining a competitive technology advantage over our competition. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to maintain a competitive technology advantage in the future over our competitors, many of whom have significantly more experience, more extensive infrastructure and are better capitalized than us.

 

No assurances can be given that we will be able to keep up with a rapidly changing business information market.

 

Consumer needs and the business information industry as a whole are in a constant state of change. Our ability to continually improve our current processes and products in response to these changes and to develop new products and services to meet those needs are essential in maintaining our competitive position and meeting the increasingly sophisticated requirements of our customers. If we fail to enhance our current products and services or fail to develop new products in light of emerging industry standards and information requirements, we could lose customers to current or future competitors, which could result in impairment of our growth prospects and revenues.

 

The market for programmatic advertising campaigns is relatively new and evolving. If this market develops slower or differently than we expect, our business, growth prospects and financial condition would be adversely affected.

 

A substantial portion of our revenue has been derived from customers that programmatically purchase and sell advertising inventory through our platform. We expect that spending on programmatic ad buying and selling will continue to be a significant source of revenue for the foreseeable future, and that our revenue growth will largely depend on increasing spend through our platform. The market for programmatic ad buying is an emerging market, and our current and potential customers may not shift quickly enough to programmatic ad buying from other buying methods, reducing our growth potential. Because our industry is relatively new, we will encounter risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in similarly rapidly evolving industries, including the need to:

 

  · Maintain our reputation and build trust with advertisers and digital media property owners;
     
  · Offer competitive pricing to publishers, advertisers, and digital media agencies;
     
  · Maintain quality and expand quantity of our advertising inventory;

 

 

 10 

 

 

  · Continue to develop, launch, and upgrade the technologies that enable us to provide our solutions;
     
  · Respond to evolving government regulations relating to the internet, telecommunications, mobile, privacy, marketing, and advertising aspects of our business;
     
  · Identify, attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel; and
     
  · Cost-effectively manage our operations, including our international operations.

 

If the market for programmatic ad buying deteriorates or develops more slowly than we expect, it could reduce demand for our platform, and our business, growth prospects and financial condition would be adversely affected.

 

Our failure to maintain and grow the customer base on our platform may negatively impact our revenue and business.

 

To sustain or increase our revenue, we must regularly add both new advertiser customers and publishers, while simultaneously keeping existing customers to maintain or increase the amount of advertising inventory purchased through our platform and adopt new features and functionalities that we add to our platform. If our competitors introduce lower cost or differentiated offerings that compete with or are perceived to compete with ours, our ability to sell access to our platform to new or existing customers could be impaired. Our agreements with our customers allow them to change the amount of spending on our platform or terminate our services with limited notice. Our customers typically have relationships with different providers and there is limited cost to moving budgets to our competitors. As a result, we may have limited visibility as to our future advertising revenue streams. We cannot assure you that our customers will continue to use our platform or that we will be able to replace, in a timely or effective manner, departing customers with new customers that generate comparable revenue. If a major customer representing a significant portion of our business decides to materially reduce its use of our platform or to cease using our platform altogether, it is possible that our revenue could be significantly reduced.

 

We rely substantially on a limited number of customers for a significant percentage of our sales.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, total sales of our products to two customers represented approximately 58% and 73% of our revenues, respectively. Our contracts with our customers generally do not obligate them to a specified term and they can generally terminate their relationship with us at any time with a minimal amount of notice. If we lose any of our customers, or any of them decide to scale back on purchases of our products, it will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and prospects. Therefore, we must engage in continual sales efforts to maintain revenue, sustain our customer relationships, and expand our client base or our operating results will suffer. If a significant client fails to renew a contract or renews the contract on terms less favorable to us than before, our business could be negatively impacted if additional business is not obtained to replace or supplement that which was lost. We may require additional financial resources to expand our internal and external sales capabilities, although we plan to use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering for this purpose. We cannot assure that we will be able to sustain our customer relationships and expand our client base. The loss of any of our current customers or our inability to expand our customer base will have a material adverse effect on our business plans and prospects.

 

If we fail to innovate and make the right investment decisions in our offerings and platform, we may not attract and retain advertisers and publishers and our revenue and results of operations may decline.

 

Our industry is subject to rapid and frequent changes in technology, evolving customer needs and the frequent introduction by our competitors of new and enhanced offerings. We must constantly make investment decisions regarding our offerings and technology to meet customer demand and evolving industry standards. We may make wrong decisions regarding these investments. If new or existing competitors have more attractive offerings or functionalities, we may lose customers or customers may decrease their use of our platform. New customer demands, superior competitive offerings or new industry standards could require us to make unanticipated and costly changes to our platform or business model. If we fail to adapt to our rapidly changing industry or to evolving customer needs, demand for our platform could decrease and our business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

We may not be able to integrate, maintain and enhance our advertising solutions to keep pace with technological and market developments.

 

The market for digital video advertising solutions is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards and frequent introductions of new products and services. To keep pace with technological developments, satisfy increasing publisher and advertiser requirements, maintain the attractiveness and competitiveness of our advertising solutions and ensure compatibility with evolving industry standards and protocols, we will need to anticipate and respond to varying product lifecycles, regularly enhance our current advertising solutions and develop and introduce new solutions and functionality on a timely basis. This requires significant investment of financial and other resources. For example, we will need to invest significant resources into expanding and developing our platforms in order to maintain a comprehensive solution. Ad exchanges and other technological developments may displace us or introduce an additional intermediate layer between us and our customers and digital media properties that could impair our relationships with those customers.

 

If we fail to detect advertising fraud, we could harm our reputation and hurt our ability to execute our business plan.

 

As we are in the business of providing services to publishers, advertisers, and agencies, we must deliver effective digital advertising campaigns. Despite our efforts to implement fraud protection techniques in our platforms, some of our advertising and agency campaigns may experience fraudulent and other invalid impressions, clicks or conversions that advertisers may perceive as undesirable, such as non-human traffic generated by computers designed to simulate human users and artificially inflate user traffic on websites. These activities could overstate the performance of any given digital advertising campaign and could harm our reputation. It may be difficult for us to detect fraudulent or malicious activity because we do not own content and rely in part on our digital media properties to control such activity. Industry self-regulatory bodies, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and certain influential members of Congress have increased their scrutiny and awareness of, and have taken recent actions to address, advertising fraud and other malicious activity. If we fail to detect or prevent fraudulent or other malicious activity, the affected advertisers may experience or perceive a reduced return on their investment and our reputation may be harmed. High levels of fraudulent or malicious activity could lead to dissatisfaction with our solutions, refusals to pay, refund or future credit demands or withdrawal of future business.

 

The loss of advertisers and publishers as customers could significantly harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. 

 

Our customer base consists primarily of advertisers and publishers. We do not have exclusive relationships with advertising agencies, companies that are advertisers, or publishers, such that we largely depend on agencies to work with us as they embark on advertising campaigns for advertisers. The loss of agencies as customers and referral sources could significantly harm our business, operating results and financial condition. If we fail to maintain satisfactory relationships with an advertising agency, we risk losing business from the advertisers represented by that agency.

 

Furthermore, advertisers and publishers may change advertising agencies. If an advertiser switches from an agency that utilizes our platform to one that does not, we will lose revenue from that advertiser. In addition, some advertising agencies have their own relationships with publishers that are different than our relationships, such that they might directly connect advertisers with such publishers. Our business may suffer to the extent that advertising agencies and inventory suppliers purchase and sell advertising inventory directly from one another or through intermediaries other than us.

 

Our sales efforts with advertisers and publishers require significant time and expense.

 

Attracting new advertisers and publishers requires substantial time and expense, and we may not be successful in establishing new relationships or in maintaining or advancing our current relationships. Our solutions, including our programmatic solutions, and our business model often requires us to spend substantial time and effort educating our own sales force and potential advertisers, advertising agencies, supply side platforms and digital media properties about our offerings, including providing demonstrations and comparisons against other available solutions. This process is costly and time-consuming. If we are not successful in targeting, supporting, and streamlining our sales processes, our ability to grow our business may be adversely affected.

Changes in consumer sentiment or laws, rules or regulations regarding tracking technologies and other privacy matters could have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate net revenues and could adversely affect our ability to collect data on consumer shopping behavior.

 

The collection and use of electronic information about users is an important element of our data intelligence technology and solutions. However, consumers may become increasingly resistant to the collection, use and sharing of information, including information used to deliver advertising and to attribute credit to publishers in performance marketing programs, and take steps to prevent such collection, use and sharing of information. For example, consumer complaints and/or lawsuits regarding advertising or other tracking technologies in general and our practices specifically could adversely impact our business. In addition to this change in consumer preferences, if retailers or brands perceive significant negative consumer reaction to targeted advertising or the tracking of consumers’ activities, they may determine that such advertising or tracking has the potential to negatively impact their brand. In that case, advertisers may limit or stop the use of our solutions, and our operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.

 

Government regulation of the Internet, e-commerce and m-commerce is evolving, and unfavorable changes or failure by us to comply with these laws and regulations could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

 

We are subject to general business regulations and laws as well as regulations and laws specifically governing the Internet, e-commerce, and m-commerce in a number of jurisdictions around the world. Existing and future regulations and laws could impede the growth of the Internet, e-commerce, m-commerce, or other online services. These regulations and laws may involve taxation, tariffs, privacy and data security, anti-spam, data protection, content, copyrights, distribution, electronic contracts, electronic communications, and consumer protection. It is not clear how existing laws and regulations governing issues such as property ownership, sales and other taxes, libel and personal privacy apply to the Internet as the vast majority of these laws and regulations were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet and do not contemplate or address the unique issues raised by the Internet, e-commerce or m-commerce. It is possible that general business regulations and laws, or those specifically governing the Internet, e-commerce or m-commerce may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or our practices. We cannot assure you that our practices have complied, comply, or will comply fully with all such laws and regulations. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply with any of these laws or regulations could result in damage to our reputation, a loss in business, and proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or others. Any such proceeding or action could hurt our reputation, force us to spend significant resources in defense of these proceedings, distract our management, increase our costs of doing business, and cause consumers and retailers to decrease their use of our marketplace, and may result in the imposition of monetary liability. We may also be contractually liable to indemnify and hold harmless third parties from the costs or consequences of noncompliance with any such laws or regulations. In addition, it is possible that governments of one or more countries may seek to censor content available on our websites and mobile applications or may even attempt to completely block access to our marketplace. Adverse legal or regulatory developments could substantially harm our business. In particular, in the event that we are restricted, in whole or in part, from operating in one or more countries, our ability to retain or increase our customer base may be adversely affected and we may not be able to maintain or grow our net revenues as anticipated.

 

We may be required to invest significant monies upfront in capital intensive project(s) which we may be unable to recover.

 

Failure to recover significant, up-front capital investments required by certain client contracts could be harmful to the Company’s financial condition and operating results. Certain of our client contracts require significant investment in the early stages, which we expect to recover through billings over the life of the contract. These contracts may involve the construction of new computer systems and communications networks or the development and deployment of new technologies. Substantial performance risk exists in each contract with these characteristics, and some or all elements of service delivery under these contracts are dependent upon successful completion of the development, construction, and deployment phases. Failure to successfully meet our contractual requirements under these contracts over their life increases the possibility that we may not recover our capital investments in these contracts. Failure to recover our capital investments could be detrimental to the particular engagement as well as our operating results.

 

 

 13 

 

 

We are subject to payment-related risks and, if our customers do not pay or dispute their invoices, our business, financial condition, and operating results may be adversely affected.

 

We may be involved in disputes with agencies and their advertisers over the operation of our platform, the terms of our agreements or our billings for purchases made by them through our platform. If we are unable to collect or make adjustments to bills to customers, we could incur write-offs for bad debt, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the periods in which the write-offs occur. In the future, bad debt may exceed reserves for such contingencies and our bad debt exposure may increase over time. Any increase in write-offs for bad debt could have a materially negative effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Even if we are not paid by our customers on time or at all, we are still obligated to pay for the advertising inventory we have purchased for the advertising campaign, and as a consequence, our results of operations and financial condition would be adversely impacted.

 

If we default on our credit obligations, our operations may be interrupted, and our business and financial results could be adversely affected.

 

Publishers extend us credit terms for the purchase of advertising inventory. We currently have outstanding payables to existing publishers. If we are unable to pay our publishers in a timely fashion, they may elect to no longer sell us inventory to provide for sale to advertisers. Also, it may be necessary for us to incur additional indebtedness to maintain operations of the Company. If we default on our credit obligations, our lenders and debt financing holders may, among other things:

 

  · require repayment of any outstanding obligations or amounts drawn on our credit facilities;
     
  · terminate our credit;
     
  · stop delivery of ordered equipment;
     
  · discontinue our ability to acquire inventory that is sold to advertisers;
     
  · require us to accrue interest at higher rates; or
     
  · require us to pay significant damages.

 

If some or all of these events were to occur, our operations may be interrupted and our ability to fund our operations or obligations, as well as our business, financial results, and financial condition, could be adversely affected.

 

Our failure to recruit or the loss of management and highly trained and qualified personnel could adversely affect our operations.

 

Our future success depends in large part on our current senior management team and our ability to attract and retain additional high-quality management and operating personnel. Our senior management team’s in-depth knowledge of and deep relationships with the participants in our industry are extremely valuable to us. Our business also requires skilled technical and marketing personnel, who are in high demand and are often subject to competing offers. Our failure to recruit and retain qualified personnel could hinder our ability to successfully develop and operate our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and operating results. The complexity of our data products, processing functionality, software systems and services require highly trained professionals to operate, maintain, improve and repair them. While we presently have a sophisticated, dedicated and experienced team of associates who have a deep understanding of our business, some of whom have been with Mobiquity for years, the labor market for these individuals has historically been, and is currently, very competitive due to the limited number of people available with the necessary technical skills and understanding, compensation strategies, general economic conditions and various other factors. As the business information and marketing industries continue to become more technologically advanced, we anticipate increased competition for qualified personnel. The loss of the services of highly trained personnel like the Company’s current team of associates, or the inability to recruit and retain additional, qualified associates, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or operating results.

We can provide no assurance that our third-party vendors’ and service providers’ cybersecurity risk management processes, including their policies, controls or procedures, will be effective in protecting our systems and information.

 

In the ordinary course of business, we receive, process, use, and store digitally large amounts of data, including confidential, sensitive, proprietary, and personal information. Maintaining the integrity and availability of our information technology systems and this information, as well as appropriate limitations on access and confidentiality of such information, is important to us and our business operations. To this end, we have implemented policies designed to assess, identify, and manage risks from potential unauthorized occurrences on or through our information technology systems that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of these systems and the data residing in them. While we have taken measures designed to protect the security of the confidential and personal information under our control, we cannot provide absolute assurance that any security measures that we or our third-party service providers have implemented will be effective against current or future security threats.

 

Our cybersecurity program is managed by our Chief Technology Officer. Most of the information generated and collected by us is stored and maintained by third-party vendors and service providers, who have demonstrated their own cybersecurity protocols which our management believes to be adequate for protecting our digital files in their possession. Our CTO is responsible for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks. Our CTO has cybersecurity expertise. We have no formal cybersecurity policies and processes in place; however, the Board and management believe cybersecurity represents an important component of our overall approach to risk management and oversight.

 

We consider cybersecurity, along with other significant risks that we face, within our overall enterprise risk management framework. Our Board of Directors has oversight for the most significant risks facing us and for our processes to identify, prioritize, assess, manage, and mitigate those risks. We provide our Board of Directors with periodic updates on cybersecurity and information technology matters and related risk exposures from management. Most information is stored directly to Amazon Web Services platforms, which provide market-leading data security for their centralized servers.

Cybersecurity threats have not materially affected our company, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. Our company is not aware of any material security breach to date. Accordingly, our company has not incurred any expenses over the last two years relating to information security breaches.  The occurrence of cyber-incidents, or a deficiency in our cybersecurity or in those of any of our third-party service providers could negatively impact our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and systems, or damage to our business relationships or reputation, all of which could negatively impact our business and results of operations. There can be no assurance that our third-party vendors’ and service providers’ cybersecurity risk management processes, including their policies, controls or procedures, will be effective in protecting our systems and information.

 

Risks Relating to Offerings and Ownership of Our Securities

 

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules. These penny stock rules make it difficult to resell securities classified as “penny stock.”

 

The Company’s common stock and warrants were delisted in December 2023 from the Nasdaq Capital Markets for failure to meet the continuing listing requirements. Since the Company’s common stock and warrants are quoted in the OTC Markets, our common stock and warrants are subject to “penny stock” rules (generally defined as non-exchange traded stock with a per-share price below $5.00). Unless we maintain a per-share price above $5.00, our common stock and warrants will continue to be a “penny stock.” These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as “established customers” or “accredited investors.” For example, broker-dealers must determine the appropriateness for non-qualifying persons of investments in penny stocks. Broker-dealers must also provide, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, disclose the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, furnish monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account, provide a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

Legal remedies available to an investor in “penny stocks” may include the following:

 

  · If a “penny stock” is sold to the investor in violation of the requirements listed above, or other federal or states securities laws, the investor may be able to cancel the purchase and receive a refund of the investment.
     
  · If a “penny stock” is sold to the investor in a fraudulent manner, the investor may be able to sue the persons and firms that committed the fraud for damages.

 

These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.

 

Many brokerage firms will discourage or refrain from recommending investments in penny stocks. Most institutional investors will not invest in penny stocks. In addition, many individual investors will not invest in penny stocks due, among other reasons, to the increased financial risk generally associated with these investments. For these reasons, penny stocks may have a limited market and, consequently, limited liquidity.

 

The market price of our common stock is likely to remain highly volatile because of several factors, including a limited public float.

 

From December 2021 through December 6, 2023, our common stock traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Currently, our common stock and warrants trade under the symbols “MOBQ” and “MOBQW,” respectively, on the OTCQB over -the counter markets. The market price of our common stock has been volatile in the past and the market price of our common stock and our warrants may be highly volatile in the future. You may not be able to resell shares of our common stock or warrants following periods of volatility because of the market’s adverse reaction to volatility.

 

Other factors that could cause such volatility may include, among other things:

 

  · actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;
     
  · the absence of securities analysts covering us and distributing research and recommendations about us;
     
  · we may have a low trading volume for several reasons, including that a large portion of our stock is closely held;
     
  · overall stock market fluctuations;
     
  · announcements concerning our business or those of our competitors;
     
  · actual or perceived limitations on our ability to raise capital when we require it, and to raise such capital on favorable terms;
     
  · conditions or trends in the industry;
     
  · litigation;
     
  · changes in market valuations of other similar companies;
     
  · future sales of common stock;
     
  · departure of key personnel or failure to hire key personnel; and
     
  · general market conditions.

 

 

 16 

 

 

Any of these factors could have a significant and adverse impact on the market price of our common stock and/or warrants. In addition, the stock market in general has at times experienced extreme volatility and rapid decline that has often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and/or warrants, regardless of our actual operating performance.

 

Our future sales of common stock by management and other stockholders may have an adverse effect on the then prevailing market price of our common stock.

 

Sales of our common stock may be made by holders of our public float or by holders of restricted securities in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. In general, under Rule 144, a non-affiliated person who has satisfied a six-month holding period in a fully reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may, sell their restricted common stock without volume limitation, so long as the issuer is current with all reports under the Exchange Act in order for there to be adequate common public information. Affiliated persons may also sell their common shares held for at least six months, but affiliated persons will be required to meet certain other requirements, including manner of sale, notice requirements and volume limitations. Non-affiliated persons who hold their common shares for at least one year will be able to sell their common stock without the need for there to be current public information in the hands of the public. Future sales of shares of our public float or by restricted common stock made in compliance with Rule 144 may have an adverse effect on the then prevailing market price, if any, of our common stock.

 

As of July 21, 2025 , we have 21,912,754 shares of common stock outstanding(including 125,000 shares of Common Stock to be paid for by a Selling Stockholder within five days of the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part). The possibility that substantial amounts of common stock and warrants may be sold in the public market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities or impair our shareholders’ ability to sell on the open market. Additionally, any substantial increase of our shares that are eligible to be sold into the market in the near future could cause the market price of our common shares to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

 

We in the past identified significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that, if not corrected, could result in material misstatements of our financial statements.

 

We have concluded that we had not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting through the three years ended December 31, 2022. The Company determined that it had deficiencies over financial statements recording in areas of recording revenue and expenses in proper cut-off as well as proper classification of accounts. Significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in our internal control could have a material adverse effect on us. Due to these deficiencies, there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We are continuing to remediate these deficiencies and material weaknesses. We are taking steps to enhance our internal control environment to establish and maintain effective disclosure and financial controls and procedures, internal control over financial reporting and changes in corporate governance.

 

Internal Controls Remediation Efforts

 

During the past two years, we worked to remediate the deficiencies and material weaknesses in our internal controls. We have taken steps to enhance our internal control environment to improve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and changes in corporate governance. In this regard, the Company is in the process of adopting several corporate governance policies, and will expand on its 2021 established Audit Committee and other committees of the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee, as a priority, initiated the process of segregating tasks and processes to ensure proper internal controls over financial reporting. The Company continues to refine and improve such processes subject to available financing. In connection with this process the Company:

 

  · Hired additional staff, both internally and externally, to the Finance department, with sufficient GAAP and public company financial reporting experience. These hires began their duties in Q3 2022.
  · Hired a consultant, Refidential One, to assist in internal control review, risk assessment, process documentation, gap remediation, control testing and monitoring. Starting in February 2022, Refidential One, in accord with the Company, achieved the following results:
    o Identified internal control issues brought forth by process walkthroughs and internal control testing.
    o Successfully implemented remediations to address such internal control issues in 2022.
    o Implemented monitoring activities to ensure these controls are effective, incorporated the testing of these controls in the second half of 2022, and have continued to test and monitor the controls into 2025 and beyond as financial resources permit. 

 

 

 17 

 

 

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting could adversely impact our ability to provide timely and accurate financial information, and to timely or accurately report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows or maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures. If we are unable to report financial information timely and accurately or to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures, we could be subject to, among other things, regulatory or enforcement actions by the SEC, any one of which could adversely affect our business prospects.

 

We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future and thus you must rely on stock appreciation for any return on your investment.

 

While we were required to pay dividends on our previously issued and converted Series H Preferred Stock, we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We may not have sufficient funds to legally pay dividends. Even if funds are legally available to pay dividends, we may nevertheless decide in our sole discretion not to pay dividends. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors our board of directors may consider relevant. There is no assurance that we will pay any dividends in the future, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. As a result, you must rely on stock appreciation and a liquid trading market for any return on your investment. If an active and liquid trading market does not develop, you may be unable to sell your shares of common stock at the time you would like to sell.

 

Our principal stockholders, directors and executive officers have a material level of control over us, which could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control favored by our other stockholders.

 

Currently, our principal stockholders, directors, and executive officers beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 46% of our outstanding common stock (including derivative securities convertible into common stock). The interests of our current directors and executive officers may differ from the interests of other stockholders. As a result, these current directors and officers could have the ability to exercise material influence over all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how our other stockholders may vote, including the following actions:

 

  · approval of certain mergers and other significant corporate transactions, including a sale of substantially all of our assets and material financing transactions;
     
  · election of directors;
     
  · adoption of or amendments to stock option plans; or
     
  · amendment of charter documents.

 

Our certificate of incorporation grants our board of directors the authority to issue a new series of preferred stock without further approval by our shareholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common shares.

 

Our board of directors has the power to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the power to issue preferred stock without further shareholder approval, subject to applicable listing regulations. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of new series of preferred stock that would grant to holders thereof certain rights in preference to the rights of our common stockholders to:

 

  · our assets upon liquidation;
     
  · receive dividend payments ahead of holders of common shares;
     
  · the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common shares;
     
  · vote to approve matters as a separate class or have more votes per share relative to shares of common stock.

 

 

 18 

 

 

In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of new series of preferred stock that is convertible into our common shares or may also authorize the sale of additional shares of authorized common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common shares or result in dilution to our existing shareholders.

 

As a public company, we are subject to complex legal and accounting requirements that will require us to incur significant expenses and will expose us to risk of non-compliance.

 

As a public company, we are subject to numerous legal and accounting requirements, that do not apply to private companies. The cost of compliance with many of these requirements is material, not only in absolute terms but, more importantly, in relation to the overall scope of the operations of a small company. Our management team is relatively inexperienced in complying with these requirements, and our management resources are limited, which may lead to errors in our accounting and financial statements, and which may impair our operations. This inexperience and lack of resources may also increase the cost of compliance and may also increase the risk that we will fail to comply. Failure to comply with these requirements can have numerous adverse consequences including, but not limited to, our inability to file required periodic reports on a timely basis, resulting in loss of market confidence and/or governmental or private actions against us. We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with all of these requirements or that the cost of such compliance will not prove to be a substantial competitive disadvantage vis-à-vis our privately held and larger public competitors.

 

General Risk Factors

 

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and New York law make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us and make a takeover more difficult to complete, even if such a transaction were in the stockholders’ interest.

 

Our restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, and by-laws and New York law contain provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids by making such practices or bids unacceptably expensive to the raider and to encourage prospective acquirers to negotiate with our board of directors rather than to attempt a hostile takeover. In addition, provisions of our restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, by-laws and New York law impose various procedural and other requirements, which could make it more difficult for shareholders to effect certain corporate actions. These provisions include, among others:

 

  · the inability of our shareholders to call a special meeting;
     
  · rules regarding how shareholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at shareholder meetings;
     
  · the right of our Board to issue preferred stock without shareholder approval; and
     
  · the ability of our directors, and not shareholders, to fill vacancies on our Board.

 

We believe these provisions may help protect our shareholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirers to negotiate with our Board and by providing our Board with more time to assess any acquisition proposal. These provisions are not intended to make our Company immune from takeovers. In addition, although we believe these provisions collectively provide for an opportunity to receive higher bids by requiring potential acquirers to negotiate with our Board, they would apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some shareholders. These provisions may also frustrate or prevent any attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management team by making it more difficult for shareholders to replace members of our Board, which is responsible for appointing the members of our management.

 

Our bylaws provide for limitations of director liability and indemnification of directors and officers and employees.

 

Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by law. Our bylaws also provide that we are obligated to advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding. We believe that these provisions are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

Section 402(b) of the BCL permits a New York corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating the potential monetary liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; provided that this provision may not eliminate the liability of a director (i) for acts or omissions in bad faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (ii) for any transaction from which the director receives an improper personal benefit or (iii) for any acts in violation of Section 719 of the BCL. Section 719 provides that a director who votes or concurs in a corporate action will be liable to the corporation for the benefit of its creditors and shareholders for any damages suffered as a result of an action approving (i) an improper payment of a dividend, (ii) an improper redemption or purchase by the corporation of shares of the corporation, (iii) an improper distribution of assets to shareholders after dissolution of the corporation without adequately providing for all known liabilities of the corporation or (iv) the making of an improper loan to a director of the corporation.

 

The limitation of liability in our bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might provide a benefit to us and our stockholders. Our results of operations and financial condition may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

 

The sales practice requirements of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority’s (“FINRA”) may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our Common Stock.

 

FINRA has adopted rules requiring 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 or 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 has indicated its belief that there is a high probability that speculative or low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. If these FINRA requirements are applicable to us or our securities, they may make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that at least some of their customers buy our Common Stock, which may limit the ability of our stockholders to buy and sell our Common Stock and could have an adverse effect on the market for and price of our Common Stock.

 

Issuance of stock to fund our operations may dilute your investment and reduce your equity interest.

 

We may need to raise capital in the future to fund the development of our business. Any equity financing may have significant dilutive effect to stockholders and a material decrease in our stockholders’ equity interest in us. Equity financing, if obtained, could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. At its sole discretion, our board of directors may issue additional securities without seeking stockholder approval, and we do not know when we will need additional capital or, if we do, whether it will be available to us.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sales of shares of our common stock by the Selling Stockholders.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

The Selling Stockholders will offer shares of our Common Stock at the prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. The offering price of our Common Stock does not necessarily bear any relationship to our book value, assets, past operating results, financial condition or any other established criteria of value. Our Common Stock may not trade at the market prices in excess of the offering prices for Common Stock in any public market, will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the market for our Common Stock.

The Selling Stockholders and any of their respective pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on any trading market, stock exchange or other trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

  · ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
  · block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
  · purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
  · an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
  · privately negotiated transactions;
  · settlement of short sales;
  · in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;
  · through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
  · a combination of any such methods of sale; or
  · any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

 

 24 

 

 

The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders(or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities covered hereby, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The Selling Stockholders may be deemed an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act and will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. Each Selling Stockholder pay any underwriting discounts and selling commissions that may relate to the sale of their shares. We have agreed to pay the legal, accounting, printing, and other expenses related to the registration of the resale of the shares.

 

We intend to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

  

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and are informing the Selling Stockholders of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

 

Penny Stock Rules

 

Our shares of Common Stock are subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Exchange Act. In general terms, “penny stock” is defined as any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The rules provide that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC, authorized for quotation from the NASDAQ stock market, issued by a registered investment company, and excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share), or based on the issuer’s net tangible assets or revenues. In the last case, the issuer’s net tangible assets must exceed $3,000,000 if in continuous operation for at least three years or $5,000,000 if in operation for less than three years, or the issuer’s average revenues for each of the past three years must exceed $6,000,000.

 

 

 25 

 

 

Trading in shares of penny stock is subject to additional sales practice requirements for broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Accredited investors, in general, include individuals with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 (or $300,000 together with their spouse), and certain institutional investors. For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of the security and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for security. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks. These rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade or maintain a market in our Common Stock, to the extent it is penny stock, and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.

 

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

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. All statements contained herein are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements regarding anticipated future capital requirements, our future plan of operations, our ability to obtain debt, equity or other financing, and our ability to generate cash from operations, are based on current expectations.

Our Company

 

We are a next-generation advertising technology, data compliance and intelligence company which operates through our three proprietary software platforms in the programmatic advertising industry.

 

The Programmatic Advertising Industry

 

Programmatic advertising refers to the automated buying and selling of digital ad space. In contrast to manual advertising, which relies on human interaction and negotiation between publishers and marketers, programmatic ad buying harnesses technology to purchase digital display space. This use of software and algorithms helps streamline ad buying processes, which is why programmatic has become one of the most indispensable digital marketing tools worldwide. In 2024, global programmatic ad spend reached an estimated 595 billion U.S. dollars, with spending set to surpass $800 billion by 2028. The United States remains the leading programmatic advertising market worldwide.

 

Our Mission

 

Our mission is to help enterprises in the programmatic industry become more efficient and effective regarding the monetization of advertising, audience segments and data compliance. We do this by offering three proprietary solutions: Our ATOS platform for brands and agencies, our data intelligence platform for audience segments and targeting, and our publisher platform for privacy compliance and publisher monetization.

 

Our Opportunity

 

On November 12, 2024, we announced the expansion of our strategic partnership with Context Networks and the rollout of their advanced ad tech solution for casinos, seamlessly integrating digital ads into slot machines to enhance player engagement. By combining Context’s innovation in gaming-specific advertising with Mobiquity’s expertise in geo-targeted advertising, we’re creating a first-of-its-kind platform delivering ads to slot machines in real-time Slot machine advertising technology now live with River City Amusements; beginning of a broader rollout, introducing an omni-channel ad ecosystem within casino environments (table games, card rooms, digital signage, hospitality, etc.)

 

Our Solutions

 

Programmatic Advertising Platform

 

Our advertising technology operating system (or ATOS) platform is a single-vendor end-to-end solution that blends artificial intelligence (or AI) and machine learning (or ML)-based optimization technology that automatically serves advertising and manages digital advertising campaigns. Our ATOS platform engages with approximately 10 billion advertisement opportunities per day.

 

 

 26 

 

 

As an automated programmatic ecosystem, ATOS increases speed and performance, by providing dynamic technology that scales in real-time. It is this proprietary cloud-based architecture that keeps costs down and allows us to pass along savings to our customers. Also, by offering more of the features inherent in a digital advertising campaign and removing the need for third-party integration of those features, we believe that our ATOS platform can be substantially more time efficient and cost efficient than other Demand-Side Platforms (or DSPs). Our ATOS platform also decreases the effective cost basis for users by integrating all the necessary capabilities at no additional cost as compared to the costs to outsource these capabilities to one or more providers in a fragmented ecosystem. DSP and bidding technologies, AdCop™ Fraud Protection, rich media and ad serving, attribution, reporting dashboard and DMP are all included in our ATOS platform.

 

Data Intelligence Platform

 

Our data intelligence platform provides precise data and insights on consumer’s real-world behavior and trends for use in marketing and research. Our management believes, based on our experience in the industry, that we provide one of the most accurate and scalable solutions for data collection and analysis, utilizing multiple internally developed proprietary technologies.

 

We provide our data intelligence platform to our customers on a managed services basis and also offer a self-service alternative through our MobiExchange product, which is a software-as-a-service (or SaaS) fee model. MobiExchange is a data-focused technology solution that enables users to rapidly build actionable data and insights for its own use. MobiExchange’s easy-to-use, self-service tools allow anyone to reduce the complex technical and financial barriers typically associated with turning offline data, and other business data, into actionable digital products and services. MobiExchange provides out-of-the box private labeling, flexible branding, content management, user management, user communications, subscriptions, payment, invoices, reporting, gateways to third party platforms, and help desk, among other things.

 

Publisher Platform for Monetization and Compliance

 

Our content publisher platform is a single-vendor ad tech operating system that allows publishers to better monetize their opt-in user data and advertising inventory. The platform includes tools for: consent management, audience building, a direct advertising interface and inventory enhancement. Our publisher platform provides content publishers the functionality to use its user identifier data to create inventories of profiled data segments and to target audiences with advertising using that data, in a data privacy compliant manner.

 

Our Revenue Sources

 

We target publishers, brands, advertising agencies and other advertising technology companies as our audience for our three platform products. Our sales and marketing strategy is focused on providing a de-fragmented operating system that facilitates a considerably more efficient and effective way for advertisers and publishers to transact with each other. Our goal is to become the programmatic display advertising industry standard for small and medium sized advertisers. We generate revenue from our platforms through two verticals:

 

  · The first is licensing one or more of our platforms as a white-label product for use by advertising agencies, demand-side platforms (or DSP’s), brands and publishers. Under the white-label scenario, the user licenses a platform from us and is responsible for running its own business operations and is billed a percentage of amounts spent on advertising run through the platform.
     
  · The third revenue stream is a managed services model, in which, the user is billed a higher percentage of revenue run through a platform, but all services are managed by us.

 

Our Strategic Alliance with Context Networks

 

Our strategic partnership with Context Networks not only transforms the in-casino experience but also extends advertising across mobile and CTV platforms, reconnecting with players after they leave. With plans for a broader rollout, we believe this technology is poised to set a new standard in multi-platform advertising within the gaming industry. Furthermore, management believes that the aforementioned strategic partnership will have a significant favorable impact on our results of operations in fiscal 2025 and beyond.

 

 

 27 

 

 

We believe that by combining Context’s innovation in gaming-specific advertising with Mobiquity’s programmatic expertise, we are creating a first-of-its-kind platform that:

 

  · Brings programmatic precision into the gaming industry with unmatched targeting and real-time delivery.
  · Establishes a scalable marketplace that connects advertisers and publishers seamlessly across gaming and digital environments.
  · Sets the stage for expansion beyond gaming into broader programmatic opportunities, positioning us as a future leader in the space.

 

This strategic alliance isn’t just about disrupting the gaming industry, it’s about building a tech-driven platform that could rival current industry leaders in its reach and impact. Context Networks’ addressable market includes approximately 4,700 global casinos and 2.9 million slot machines, with a potential audience exceeding 1.6 billion global gamblers, including an estimated 57 million in North America. Based on Context Networks’ internal estimates, the annual gross revenue potential from programmatic advertising across 1,000 slot machines could exceed $20 million for all participants, depending on factors such as play time rates and ad inventory pricing. No assurance can be given as to the amount of revenue that we will receive annually from this strategic alliance.

 

In February 2025, the Company completed a expansion of its strategic alliance with Context Networks, Inc. (Context), a private company offering a programmatic advertising platform that leverages private blockchain technology to deliver advertising solutions for the gaming industry, through the issuance of 127,230 shares of its restricted common stock in exchange for 274,725 shares of Context’s restricted common stock. The value of the shares issued was based on the Company’s market value of its common stock at the effective date of the exchange, $3.93 per share. This agreement establishes minority ownership stakes in each other, reinforcing their shared vision for innovation in casino advertising technology and the growing market for targeted, data-driven direct marketing and advertising solutions in gaming environments.

 

We are now focused on developing a gateway into Casinos, Gaming, Big Data, AI and AdTech through our relationship with Context Networks and partnerships like River City Amusements. We are in the process of delivering next-generation advertising experiences inside real-world venues across the U.S.

 

1. Strong Footprint in Casinos and Gaming Venues

 

We are powering digital advertising directly on gaming machines and digital signage within casinos, taverns, and amusement venues.

 

1.In partnership with Context Networks and River City Amusements, we have helped to launch in-venue advertising across Wisconsin taverns and restaurants.
2.These ad units are integrated into slot machines and gaming displays, delivering dynamic and monetizable content while players are engaged.This direct access to in-venue screens gives us a unique channel for brand exposure in an industry with very little traditional advertising.

 

2. Big Data-Driven Targeting

 

Our platforms are built to gather, segment, and apply audience data to optimize campaign delivery. Whether it's geo-targeting customers by ZIP code or tracking user behavior across campaigns, we help advertisers fine-tune messages with measurable return on investment. This allows:

 

1.Local businesses to run highly relevant, localized promotions,
2.National brands to tap into high-traffic, high-engagement entertainment environments, and
3.Campaign performance tracking across venues

 

3. Expanding Retail Media Footprint

 

The initial Wisconsin deployment with River City Amusements spans 38 venues with over 150 digital screens. That number is expected to grow to over 70 venues with more than 340 screens—and counting. This expansion is expected to transform underutilized digital screens in restaurants, bars, and amusement centers into revenue-generating ad inventory, representing a new wave of retail media—offering programmatic-style efficiency in real-world environments.

4. AdTech Infrastructure for the Real World

 

We provide a full-stack advertising solution consisting of the following:

 

1.Dynamic creative delivery based on context (location, time of day, event triggers),
2.Cross-channel extensions including mobile and connected TV (CTV), and
3.Measurement and analytics to optimize campaign performance.

 

Unlike typical digital advertising, which depends solely online, we bring the power of digital targeting and measurement into physical spaces where consumers spend time and money.

 

5. A Convergence of High-Growth Sectors

 

We are at the intersection of four fast-moving industries:

 

Sector Mobiquity's Strategic Role
   
Casino/Slots Gaming First to deploy ad units directly on gaming machines
   
AI & Big Data Uses consumer behavior insights to enhance targeting and delivery
   
AdTech Provides a tech stack for campaign delivery, measurement, and scale
   
Retail Media Converts real-world entertainment venues into monetized ad space

 

We are helping to transform how advertising reaches consumers in high-engagement environments like casinos, bars, and gaming venues. With a rapidly expanding footprint and a data-driven advertising model, we have access to multiple growth markets through a single public company.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience, and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those estimates may be material.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risks and uncertainties including financial and operational risks including the potential risk of business failure.

 

The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices in connection with the Company’s distribution of the product. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis.

 

 

 29 

 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for financial instruments at fair value, which as is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect certain market assumptions. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: 

 

  · Level 1—Valuation based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access;
     
  · Level 2—Valuation based on observable quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; and
     
  · Level 3—Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management.

 

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair value. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and contract liabilities. On December 31, 2024, and 2023, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments, or they are receivable or payable on demand. The fair value of the Company’s debt approximates its carrying value based on current financing rates available to the Company and its short-term nature.

 

The Company does not have any other financial or non-financial assets or liabilities that would be characterized as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 instruments.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable represent customer obligations under normal trade terms and are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding customer balances. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral.

 

Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for credit losses. The Company provides an allowance for credit losses based upon a review of the outstanding accounts receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35-15 Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Events and circumstances considered by the Company in determining whether the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable include but are not limited to significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results; significant changes in the use of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends; and changes in the Company’s business strategy. In determining if impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets and compares this to the carrying amounts of the assets.

 

If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

 

 

 30 

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) to align revenue recognition more closely with the delivery of the Company’s services and will provide financial statement readers with enhanced disclosures. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

 

Identify the contract with a customer.

 

A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.

 

Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

 

Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services, the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.

 

Determine the transaction price.

 

The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s contracts as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, contained a significant financing component or variable consideration terms.

 

Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.

 

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless the transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.

 

Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company satisfies performance obligations either overtime or at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised service to a customer.

 

Each of the Company’s customer contracts is deemed to have a single performance obligation. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days.

 

 

 31 

 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options and other equity instruments granted to both employees and non-employees.

 

When determining fair value of stock-based compensation, the Company considers the following assumptions incorporated into the Black-Scholes model:

 

  · Exercise price,
     
  · Expected dividends,
     
  · Expected volatility,
     
  · Risk-free interest rate; and
     
  · Expected life of option

 

Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

We consider the applicability and impact of all new accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ deficit, cash flows, or presentation thereof. Management has evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) through the date their consolidated financial statements were available to be issued and found no recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective, that when adopted, will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Mobiquity intends to expand its sales and support team to drive revenue growth across multiple strategic initiatives, with a particular focus on capitalizing on its evolving relationship with Context Networks and the broader opportunity in the casino and gaming vertical. Through this strategic alliance, Mobiquity gains access to a highly specialized, under-monetized supply of digital real estate within casinos, which can now be activated via our advertising technology stack. This includes integration with supply-side platforms (SSPs) and Mobiquity’s new Publisher Platform, which is designed to onboard publishers across web, mobile, application, and Connected TV (CTV) environments.

 

The expanded sales team will target advertising agencies, brands, publishers, and SSP operators to grow both the demand and supply sides of Mobiquity’s ATOS platform, while also leveraging the Company’s proprietary data and artificial intelligence capabilities delivered through MobiExchange. MobiExchange enables audience targeting using custom data segments for omnichannel marketing programs, including programmatic display, CTV, email, and SMS. As a core AI-driven intelligence layer, it enhances both precision targeting and campaign optimization.

 

The Publisher Platform, newly introduced by Mobiquity, opens another growth vector. Sales efforts will focus on bringing on board digital content owners—such as unique and non-traditional website and app publishers, CTV providers, and SSP partners—who can monetize their inventory through seamless access to ATOS and MobiExchange. With the integration of Context Networks’ patented ad technology and Mobiquity’s advanced platform capabilities, the Company is positioned to capture growing demand for AI-enhanced, performance-driven advertising across both traditional and emerging digital channels.

We generated revenues of $12,613 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $263,282 during the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $250,669. The decrease is primarily attributable to the absence of political advertising revenue that was realized during the 2024 period, as well as a strategic shift in the Company’s focus toward initiatives expected to generate long-term growth. In particular, the Company has been preparing for the anticipated launch of its strategic alliance with Context Networks, which is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2025.

 

Context Networks operates a proprietary programmatic advertising platform designed for the gaming industry. Its patented technology utilizes artificial intelligence and private blockchain infrastructure to enable secure, data-driven advertising across a variety of digital surfaces within casinos and gaming environments.

 

We believe this strategic alliance with Context Networks places the Company in a favorable position within a growing vertical. As described above under Our Strategic Alliance with Context Networks, Context Networks’ addressable market includes approximately 4,700 global casinos and 2.9 million slot machines, with a potential audience exceeding 1.6 billion global gamblers, including an estimated 57 million in North America, and based on Context Networks’ internal estimates, the annual gross revenue potential from programmatic advertising across 1,000 slot machines could exceed $20 million, depending on factors such as play time rates and ad inventory pricing.

 

In addition to the Context strategic alliance, the Company has also developed several new features and enhancements to its advertising platform, which we believe will contribute to increased revenue opportunities in the second half of 2025 and beyond.

 

The cost of revenues was $31,468 or 249% of revenues in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $211,269 or 80% of revenues in for the same period of 2024. Cost of revenues include audience building, targeting features and web services for storage of our data and web engineers who are building and maintaining our platforms. Our ability to capture and store data for sales does not translate to increased cost of revenues.

 

Gross profit (loss) was $(18,855), or (149)% of revenues for the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $52,013 in the same period of 2024 or 20% of revenues.

 

Operating expenses were $2,126,599 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $1,101,111 in the prior year, an increase of $1,025,488. The increase in operating costs was primarily related to a non-cash increase in professional fees of approximately $876,000, and salaries of $222,000 reductions in computer support of approximately $54,000 and license fees of $21,000.

 

The loss from operations for the first quarter of 2025 was $2,145,454 as compared to $1,049,098 for the prior year. Our loss from operations increased by approximately $1,096,356,000, driven in part by the approximately $1,025,000 increase in operating expenses discussed above. The continuing operating loss is attributable to the focused effort in creating the products and services required to move forward with our business.

Year Ended December 31, 2024, Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2023

 

The following table sets forth certain selected statement of operations data for the periods indicated in dollars. In addition, we note that the period-to-period comparison may not be indicative of future performance.

 

   Year Ended 
   December 31, 2024   December 31, 2023 
Revenues  $2,085,471   $860,090 
Cost of revenues   1,123,849    480,160

Total operating expenses   9,172,687    5,928,678 
Loss from operations  $(8,211,065)  $(5,548,748)

 

We generated revenues of $2,085,471 in fiscal 2024 compared to $860,090 for the same period of 2023, an increase of $1,225,381. The increase can be directly attributed to the political revenue in 2024. The Company has developed several new features which we believe will help grow revenue in 2025 and beyond.

 

Cost of revenues was $1,123,849 or 54% of revenues in fiscal 2024 as compared to $480,160 or 56% of revenues in fiscal 2023. Costs of revenues include audience building, targeting features and web services for storage of our data and web engineers who are building and maintaining our platforms. Our ability to capture and store data for sales does not translate to increased cost of revenues.

 

Gross profit was $961,622 or 46% of revenues for fiscal 2024 as compared to $379,930 in the same period of 2023 or 44% of revenues.

 

Operating expenses were $9,172,687 for fiscal 2024 compared to $5,928,678 in the prior year, an increase of $3,244,009. The increase in operating costs was primarily related to a non-cash increase in stock-based compensation of approximately $3,786,000, reductions in professional fees of approximately $311,000, insurance of $51,000 and license fees of $160,000.

 

The loss from operations for fiscal 2024 was $8,211,065 as compared to $5,548,748 for the prior year. Our loss from operations increased by approximately $2,662,000, driven in part by the approximately $3,244,000 increase in operating expenses discussed above, offset by a decrease amortization cost of $292,000 and interest expense by $293,000. The continuing operating loss is attributable to the focused effort in creating the products and services required to move forward with our business.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have a history of operating losses, and our management has concluded that factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and our auditor has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its audit report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Debt, Equity and Consulting Transactions

 

For a description of debt and equity transactions for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, reference is made to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements described elsewhere herein.

 

Between April 1, 2025 and May 14, 2025, the Company raised $912,500 and between May 15, 2025 and June 30, 2025 the Company raised $440,000 (including $290,000 under the securities ELOC Purchase Agreement with ClearThink) from the sale of its common stock at $1.00 per share. Exemption from registration is claimed under Rule 506 and/or section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. No commissions were paid in connection with these transactions.

 

From June 30, 2025 through July 21, 2025, we received cash financing of $380,000 at a purchase price of $1.00 per common share. We also entered into receivable financing and two convertible note transactions as described below:

The Purchase Price is to be repaid through daily payments representing 12% of future customer payments received until a total of approximately $365,000 is paid. In connection with the May 2025 Merchant Agreement, and as additional consideration, the Company issued 3,465 shares of its common stock to the financial institution in an amount equal to 5% of the new principal Advance Amount, or approximately $6,000, which was recorded as debt discount. The number of shares issued is equal to 5% of the Advance Amount divided by the average closing per share price of the Company’s common stock for the previous twenty (20) days from the date signed by the Merchant Agreement. The balance of the May 2025 Merchant Agreement funding is expected to be repaid in full within the next year.

 

In July 2025, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $156,000 (July 2025 Promissory Note).

In the event of general default, all outstanding obligations under the July 2025 Promissory Note shall become due and payable at 150% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, plus any other amounts owed under the July 2025 Promissory Note. During the 180-day period commencing on the effective date of the July 2025 Promissory Note, the Company may prepay the principal plus a pre-payment fee of up to 125% of the outstanding principal balance, plus interest. A fee of $1,500 will be charged a maximum of six times upon each conversion of at least $15,000 of combined principal and interest.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Data Intelligence Platform

 

Our data intelligence platform provides precise data and insights on consumer’s real-world behavior and trends for use in marketing and research. Our data intelligence platform technology allows for the ingestion and normalization of various data sources, such as location data, transactional data, contextual data, and search data to reach the right target audience with the right message. Utilizing massively parallel cluster computing and machine learning algorithms and technology, our data intelligence solutions make available actionable data for marketers, researchers and application publishers through an automated platform. We are seeking to generate several revenue streams from our data collection and analysis, including, among other things; advertising, data licensing, and custom research.

We also offer a self-service alternative through our MobiExchange product, which is a SaaS fee model. MobiExchange is a data focused technology solution that enables individuals and companies to rapidly build actionable data and insights for their own use. MobiExchange’s easy-to-use, self-service tools allow users to reduce the complex technical and financial barriers typically associated with turning offline data, and other business data, into actionable digital products and services.

Publisher Platform for Monetization and Compliance

 

Our Content publisher platform is a single-vendor ad tech operating system that allows publishers to better monetize their opt-in user data and advertising inventory. The platform includes tools for: consent management, audience building, a direct advertising interface and inventory enhancement. Due to the much publicized developments in privacy and data security laws and regulations (such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 or CCPA by way of example) along with Apple and Google’s removal of identifiers, we believe that content publishers are facing two material issues: increased costs due to privacy compliance rules, and decreased revenue due to the restrictions selling user identifier data to third parties. We believe this is causing a paradigm shift in the publishing market. Previously content publishers could provide user identifier information to demand-side platforms (or DSP’s) to create user profiles for audience targeting. Now both the user identifier data and the functionality to create profiled data segments from that identifier data (known as first party data) must be owned by the content publisher. Additionally, publishers must also manage the targeting of their audiences in-house utilizing this identifier and targeting data. We recently launched our SaaS publisher platform in response to these needs.

 

All Publisher data is siloed and secured, using the highest industry standards, optimizing compliance with privacy and data laws that may be applicable. Our platform helps publishers worry less about the integrity of their first party data and allows them to focus on effectively monetizing their inventory.

 

Users of the publisher platform get access to benefits of our publisher platform, including among other things:

 

  · A Consent Manager for publishers to meet all privacy requirements in connection with their collection of an audience’s data.
     
  · An Audience Builder to build detailed databases of targeted audiences from the user identifier data.
     
  · A Direct Purchase Interface to increase revenue from direct advertising sales to target audiences; and
     
  · An Inventory Enhancer to enhance the publisher’s supply of audience data with compliant meta-tags.

We believe that irrespective of whether a publisher chooses to engage with us to use our publisher platform or not, they will need to find a solution that allows advertisers to advertise to the publisher’s audience directly through the publisher.

 

Our Strategy

 

We are a cutting-edge AdTech company at the forefront of data-driven advertising, publisher compliance, and monetization solutions. With a commitment to innovation, we have positioned ourselves as a next-generation player in the industry, providing a comprehensive suite of services through our three proprietary technology platforms.

This platform empowers publishers to navigate the complex landscape of compliance requirements seamlessly. Additionally, it offers monetization opportunities for publishers, creating a win-win scenario where content creators can thrive while adhering to industry standards.

 

Integrated Revenue Streams:

 

One of the distinctive features of our company is its anticipated ability to generate revenue through three independent yet synergistic streams.

This integrated approach allows us to adapt to the evolving needs of the market and provide comprehensive solutions to its clients.

 

Versatile Collaboration:

 

Our platforms are designed to work independently, providing specialized solutions for specific needs. Simultaneously, the platforms seamlessly integrate with each other, offering clients the flexibility to create customized, end-to-end solutions that cater to diverse requirements. This versatility positions us as a dynamic and adaptable partner in the rapidly evolving landscape.

 

In summary, Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. is not merely an AdTech company; it combines innovation, data-driven precision, and versatility to redefine the standards of advertising, data intelligence, publisher compliance and monetization. With our proprietary platforms, our company continues to provide clients with the tools they need to thrive in the digital marketplace.

 

Our Revenue Sources

 

We target publishers, brands, advertising agencies and other advertising technology companies as our audience for our three platform products. We generate revenue from our platforms through two verticals:

 

  · The first is licensing one or more of our platforms as a white-label product for use by advertising agencies, demand-side platforms (or DSP’s), brands and publishers. Under the white-label scenario, the user licenses a platform from us and is responsible for running its own business operations and is billed a percentage of amounts spent on advertising run through the platform.
     
  · The second revenue stream is a managed services model, in which, the user is billed a higher percentage of revenue run through a platform, but all services are managed by us.

 

Our Strategic Partnership with Context Networks

 

On November 12, 2024, we announced the expansion of our strategic partnership with Context Networks and the rollout of their advanced ad tech solution for casinos, seamlessly integrating digital ads into slot machines to enhance player engagement. This innovative approach not only transforms the in-casino experience but also extends advertising across mobile and CTV platforms, reconnecting with players after they leave. With plans for a broader rollout, we believe this technology is poised to set a new standard in multi-platform advertising within the gaming industry. Furthermore, management believes that the aforementioned strategic partnership will have a significant favorable impact on our results of operations in fiscal 2025 and beyond.

 

 

 42 

 

 

We believe that by combining Context’s innovation in gaming-specific advertising with Mobiquity’s programmatic expertise, we are creating a first-of-its-kind platform that:

 

  · Brings programmatic precision into the gaming industry with unmatched targeting and real-time delivery.
  · Establishes a scalable marketplace that connects advertisers and publishers seamlessly across gaming and digital environments.
  · Sets the stage for expansion beyond gaming into broader programmatic opportunities, positioning us as a future leader in the space.

 

This partnership isn’t just about disrupting the gaming industry—it’s about building a tech-driven platform that could rival current industry leaders in its reach and impact.

 

 

 

Our Intellectual Property

 

Our portfolio of technology consists of various intellectual property including proprietary source code, trade secrets and know-how that we have developed internally. We own our technology, although we use open-source software for certain aspects, and we protect it though trade secrets and confidentiality requirements set out in our employee handbook which each employee acknowledges, and assigning any technology creations and improvements to us. We also have two patents that relate to our location-based mobile advertising technology business which we are not operating. These patents and patents pending are not material to, or used in, our platform related technology that we use in our current operations.

 

Governmental Regulations

 

Federal, state, and international laws and regulations govern the collection, use, retention, sharing and security of data that we collect. We strive to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, self-regulatory requirements, and legal obligations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection, including those relating to the use of data for marketing purposes. As we develop and provide solutions that address new market segments, we may become subject to additional laws and regulations, which could create unexpected liabilities for us, cause us to incur additional costs or restrict our operations. From time to time, we may be notified of or otherwise become aware of additional laws and regulations that governmental organizations or others may claim should be applicable to our business. Our failure to anticipate the application of these laws and regulations accurately, or other failure to comply, could create liability for us, result in adverse publicity or cause us to alter our business practices, which could cause our net revenues to decrease, our costs to increase or our business otherwise to be harmed.

We are subject to general business regulations and laws as well as regulations and laws specifically governing the internet, e-commerce, and m-commerce in a number of jurisdictions around the world. Existing and future regulations and laws could impede the growth of the Internet, e-commerce, m-commerce, or other online services. These regulations and laws may involve taxation, tariffs, privacy and data security, anti-spam, data protection, content, copyrights, distribution, electronic contracts, electronic communications, and consumer protection. It is not clear how existing laws and regulations governing issues such as property ownership, sales and other taxes, libel and personal privacy apply to the Internet as the vast majority of these laws and regulations were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet and do not contemplate or address the unique issues raised by the Internet, e-commerce or m-commerce. It is possible that general business regulations and laws, or those specifically governing the Internet, e-commerce or m-commerce may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or our practices. See “Risk Factors—Our business practices with respect to data and consumer protection could give rise to liabilities or reputational harm as a result of governmental regulation, legal requirements or industry standards relating to consumer privacy, data protection and consumer protection”; and “Risk Factors-- Changes in consumer sentiment or laws, rules or regulations regarding tracking technologies and other privacy matters could have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate net revenues and could adversely affect our ability to collect data on consumer shopping behavior.”

 

Competition

 

We compete in the programmatic advertising, data management, and user compliance management industries and in all other facets of our business against small, medium and large companies throughout the United States. Some examples include companies such as Liveramp, The TradeDesk and OneTrust. Although we can give no assurance that our business will be able to compete against other companies with greater experience and resources, we believe we have a competitive advantage with our proprietary software and technology platform based on our view that our competitor’s products do not provide the end-to-end solutions that our product solutions do, and their minimum fees are substantially higher than ours for a comparative suite of solutions. See “Risk Factors — We face intense and growing competition, which could result in reduced sales and reduced operating margins and limit our market share.”

 

Employees and Contractors

 

As of March 14, 2025, we have 8 employees, including executive management, technical personnel, salespeople, and support staff employees. We also utilize several additional firms/persons who provide services to us on a non-exclusive basis as independent consultants.

 

Customers

 

For fiscal 2024 and 2023, sales of our products to two customers generated approximately 58% and 73% of our revenues, respectively. Our contracts with our customers generally do not obligate them to a specified term and they can generally terminate their relationship with us at any time with a minimal amount of notice.

Corporate Structure

 

We operate our business through two wholly owned subsidiaries, Advangelists, LLC and Mobiquity Networks, Inc. Our corporate structure is as follows:

 

 

Cybersecurity 

 

In the ordinary course of business, we receive, process, use, and store digitally large amounts of data, including confidential, sensitive, proprietary, and personal information. Maintaining the integrity and availability of our information technology systems and this information, as well as appropriate limitations on access and confidentiality of such information, is important to us and our business operations. To this end, we have implemented policies designed to assess, identify, and manage risks from potential unauthorized occurrences on or through our information technology systems that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of these systems and the data residing in them. While we have taken measures designed to protect the security of the confidential and personal information under our control, we cannot provide absolute assurance that any security measures that we or our third-party service providers have implemented will be effective against current or future security threats.

 

Our cybersecurity program is managed by our Chief Technology Officer. Most of the information generated and collected by us is stored and maintained by third-party vendors and service providers, who have demonstrated their own cybersecurity protocols which our management believes to be adequate for protecting our digital files in their possession. Our CTO is responsible for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks. Our CTO has cybersecurity expertise. We have no formal cybersecurity policies and processes in place; however, the Board and management believe cybersecurity represents an important component of our overall approach to risk management and oversight.

 

 

 45 

 

 

We consider cybersecurity, along with other significant risks that we face, within our overall enterprise risk management framework. Our Board of Directors has oversight for the most significant risks facing us and for our processes to identify, prioritize, assess, manage, and mitigate those risks. We provide our Board of Directors with periodic updates on cybersecurity and information technology matters and related risk exposures from management. Most information is stored directly to Amazon Web Services platforms, which provide market-leading data security for their centralized servers. Our company follows best practices for security, indemnity and compliance.  All connections in and out of our remote services are made over secure connections, including https and Secure Shell (SSH) protocols. On occasion, limited amounts of information such as names and emails are exported from our systems solely for the purposes of accounting and filings and is not shared outside of our company and its contracted accounting consultants, which are under confidentiality agreements.

 

Cybersecurity threats have not materially affected our company, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. Our company is not aware of any material security breach to date. Accordingly, our company has not incurred any expenses over the last two years relating to information security breaches.  The occurrence of cyber-incidents, or a deficiency in our cybersecurity or in those of any of our third-party service providers could negatively impact our business by causing disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and systems, or damage to our business relationships or reputation, all of which could negatively impact our business and results of operations. There can be no assurance that our third-party vendors’ and service providers’ cybersecurity risk management processes, including their policies, controls or procedures, will be effective in protecting our systems and information.

 

Properties

 

The Company is presently utilizing the office space of its Chief Financial Officer as its principal executive office located at 35 Torrington Lane, Shoreham, NY 11786. All employees of the Company are working remotely.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We are not a party to any pending material legal proceedings, except as follows:

 

Michael Trepeta, a former Co-CEO and director of the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company and its subsidiary, Mobiquity Networks in April 2023 in the New York State Supreme Court, Nassau County. The claims stem from a Separation Agreement and Release that Mr. Trepeta and the Company entered into six years ago in April 2017 which terminated Mr. Trepeta’ s employment agreement and discontinued his employment and directorship with the Company, among other things, by mutual agreement. Mr. Trepeta also gave the Company a release in the Separation Agreement and Release. Mr. Trepeta has claimed that the Company fraudulently induced him to enter into the Separation Agreement and Release; that the Company breached Mr. Trepeta’ s employment agreement; and that the Company breached its covenant of good faith and fair dealing and its fiduciary duty. Mr. Trepeta is claiming not less than $2.5 Million in damages. Based on the Company’s initial internal review of the situation, the Company believes the claims lack merit and it intends to vigorously defend same. In December 2023, the Company was notified that its motion to dismiss Mr. Trepeta’s action was granted but Mr. Trepeta filed a notice of appeal on January 8, 2024, and we have responded to his notice of appeal filing. Due to uncertainties inherent in litigation, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

 

Reports to Securities Holders

 

We provide an annual report that includes audited financial information to our shareholders. We make our financial information equally available to any interested parties or investors through compliance with the disclosure rules for a small business issuer under the Exchange Act. We are subject to disclosure filing requirements including filing Annual Reports on Form 10-K annually and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q quarterly. In addition, we will file Current Reports on Form 8-K and other proxy and information statements from time to time as required.

Disclosure of Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information.

 

The Company does not have any adopted policies and practices on the timing of equity incentive awards or grants in relation to the disclosure of material nonpublic information by the Company. The Company does not have a predetermined schedule as to if or when the Company’s Board of Directors grants or awards equity incentives to the Company’s executive officers, employees or members of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors takes material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of awards and grants, and whether any disclosure of material nonpublic information is timed for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation, and will, in these instances, delay the grant of awards if material news is expected to be made public based on discussions with management.

 

The Company, during the last completed fiscal year, did not award options or other equity incentives to a named executive officer in the period beginning four business days before the filing of a periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of a current report on Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information, and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such report.

 

Employment Agreements

 

At various times in the past two fiscal years, employees’ salaries have been reduced due to working capital needs. As of December 31, 2024, all employees’ salaries were returned to full pay; however, current liabilities include $754,944 in monies owed to all employees and consultants.

Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plans

 

During Fiscal 2005, the Company established, and the stockholders approved, an Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan (the “2005 Plan”) for the granting of up to 334 non-statutory and incentive stock options and stock awards to directors, officers, consultants and key employees of the Company. On June 9, 2005, the Board of Directors amended the Plan to increase the number of stock options and awards to be granted under the Plan to 667 shares. During Fiscal 2009, the Company established a plan of long-term stock-based compensation incentives for selected Eligible Participants of the Company covering 667 shares. This plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by stockholders in October 2009 (the “2009 Plan”). In September 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares covered by the 2009 Plan to 1,667 shares. In the first quarter of 2016, the Board approved, and stockholders ratified a 2016 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan covering 1,667 shares (the “2016 Plan”) and approved moving all options which exceeded the 2009 Plan limits to the 2016 Plan. In December 2018, the Board of Directors adopted and in February 2019 the stockholders ratified the 2018 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan covering 5,000 shares (the “2018 Plan”). On April 2, 2019, the Board approved the “2019 Plan” identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2019 Plan covers 10,000 shares. The 2019 Plan required stockholder approval by April 2, 2020, to be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2019 Plan. On October 13, 2021, the Board approved the “2021 Plan” identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2021 Plan covers 73,334 shares. The 2021 Plan required stockholder approval by October 13, 2022, to be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2021 Plan. On April 17, 2023, the Board approved an Equity Participation Plan similar to the Plans described herein, except that this Plan also provides for the grant of Restricted Unit Awards (the “2023 EP Plan”). Under the 2023 EP Plan, which was approved by stockholders on May 15, 2023, a maximum of 166,667 shares may be granted under the 2023 EP Plan. On December 19, 2023, the Board approved the 2023 Employee Benefit and Consulting Compensation Plan (the “2023 Plan”) identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2023 Plan covers 4,000,000 shares, as amended. The 2005 Plan, 2009 Plan, 2016 Plan, 2018 Plan, 2019 Plan, 2021 Plan, the 2023 EP Plan, and 2023 Plan are collectively referred to as the “Plans.”

Administration

 

A Committee of the Board shall determine at any time and from time to time after the Effective Date of the Plan: (i) the Eligible Participants; (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable directly or to be granted pursuant to the Option which an Eligible Participant may exercise; (iii) the price per share at which each Option may be exercised, including the form of consideration to be paid, or the value per share if a direct issue of stock; and (iv) the terms on which each Option may be granted. Such a determination may from time to time be amended or altered at the sole discretion of the Committee. Options granted to officers and/or directors of the Company shall be granted by the Board, or by the Committee, if the Committee is composed of all members who are Non-Employee Directors.

 

Types of Awards

 

The Plans are designed to enable us to offer certain officers, employees, directors and consultants of us and our subsidiaries equity interests in us and other incentive awards in order to attract, retain and reward such individuals and to strengthen the mutuality of interests between such individuals and our stockholders. In furtherance of this purpose, the Plans contain provisions for granting non-statutory stock options and incentive stock options and common stock awards.

 

Stock Options

 

A “stock option” is a contractual right to purchase a number of shares of common stock at a price determined on the date the option is granted. An incentive stock option is an option granted under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to our employees with certain tax advantages to the grantee over non-statutory stock options. The option price per share of common stock purchasable upon exercise of a stock option and the time or times at which such options shall be exercisable shall be determined by the Board at the time of grant. Such option price in the case of incentive stock options shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant and may be granted below fair market value in the case of non-statutory stock options. Incentive stock options granted to owners of 10% or more of our common stock must be granted at an exercise price of at least 110% of the fair market value of our common stock and may not have a term greater than five years. Also, the value of incentive options vesting to any employee cannot exceed $100,000 in any calendar year. The option price of our options must be paid in cash, money order, check or common stock of the company. The non-statutory stock options may also contain at the time of grant, at the discretion of the board, certain other cashless exercise provisions. These cashless exercise provisions are included in the currently outstanding non-statutory stock options granted by the board.

 

Options shall be exercisable at the times and subject to the conditions determined by the Board at the date of grant, but no option may be exercisable more than ten years after the date it is granted. If the optionee ceases to be an employee of our company for any reason other than death, any incentive stock option exercisable on the date of the termination of employment may be exercised for a period of thirty days or until the expiration of the stated term of the option, whichever period is shorter. In the event of the optionee’s death, any incentive stock option exercisable at the date of death may be exercised by the legal heirs of the optionee from the date of death until the expiration of the stated term of the option or six months from the date of death, whichever event first occurs. In the event of disability of the optionee, any incentive stock options shall expire on the stated date that the Option would otherwise have expired or 12 months from the date of disability, whichever event first occurs. The termination and other provisions of a non-statutory stock option shall be fixed by the board of directors at the date of grant of each respective option.

 

Common Stock Award

 

Common stock awards are shares of common stock that will be issued to a recipient pursuant to the terms of the grant. Only a small number of shares have been granted under the Plans.

 

Awards

 

As of December 31, 2024, the Company has a total of 1,820,764 options outstanding under the Plans and a total of 1,725,000 options outstanding outside of the Plans, or a total of options to purchase 3,545,764 shares of the Company’s Common Stock with a weighted average exercise price of $4.97 per share. The Board has granted options with varying terms. The Company has also granted various officers, directors and employees, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 105,000 shares at varying terms.

It is not possible to predict the individuals who will receive future awards under the Plans or outside the Plans or the number of shares of Common Stock covered by any future award because such awards are wholly within the discretion of the Board. The table below contains information as of December 31, 2024, on the known benefits provided to certain people and group of persons who own options under or outside the Plans.

Termination or Amendment of the Plans

 

The board may at any time amend, discontinue, or terminate all or any part of the Plans, provided, however, that unless otherwise required by law, the rights of a participant may not be impaired without his or her consent, and provided that we will seek the approval of our stockholders for any amendment if such approval is necessary to comply with any applicable federal or state securities laws or rules or regulations.

 

2023 Equity Participation Plan

 

Purpose and Effective Date

 

The purpose of the 2023 Equity Participation (the 2023 EP Plan) is to provide for the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking participants’ personal interests with those of the Company’s stockholders, and employees, by providing participants with an incentive for outstanding performance, and to motivate, attract and retain the services of participants upon whom the success of the Company depends. The 2023 EP Plan is flexible in that it provides for the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Non-statutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Stock Bonuses. The 2023 EP Plan became effective as of April 17, 2023 (the Effective Date) and was approved by stockholders on May 15, 2023.

 

Administration of the 2023 EP Plan 

 

The 2023 EP Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company which currently consists of Byron Booker, Nate Knight and Anne Provost, who are all outside independent directors, or by such other committee consisting of not less than two outside independent directors appointed by the Board of Directors (the Committee).

 

 

 57 

 

 

Shares Subject to the 2023 EP Plan 

 

The 2023 EP Plan authorizes the grant of awards relating to 166,667 shares of the Company’s common stock. 

 

If any corporate transaction occurs which causes a change in the capitalization of the Company, the Committee is authorized to make such adjustments to the number and class of shares of the Company’s common stock delivered, and the number and class and/or price of shares of the Company’s common stock subject to outstanding awards granted under the 2023 EP Plan, as it deems appropriate and equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of the 2023 EP Plan participants (referred to as “Grantees” in the 2023 EP Plan).

 

Eligibility and Participation 

 

Employees eligible to participate in the 2023 EP Plan include management and key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as determined by the Committee, including employees who are members of the Board. Directors who are not Company employees, and consultants who provide services to the Company that are not in connection with capital raising transactions or securities market promotion, also will be able to participate in the 2023 EP Plan. As of the Effective Date, it is anticipated that the approximate number of individuals who will be eligible to participate under the 2023 EP Plan will be at least 30.

  

Amendment and Termination of the 2023 EP Plan

 

In no event may any award under the 2023 EP Plan be granted on or after the tenth anniversary of the 2023 EP Plan’s Effective Date. The Board may amend, modify or terminate the 2023 EP Plan at any time; provided that no amendment requiring stockholder approval for the 2023 EP Plan to continue to comply with Sections 409A or 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, shall be effective unless approved by stockholders, and no amendment, termination or modification shall materially and adversely affect any outstanding award without the consent of the participant.

 

Awards Under the 2023 EP Plan

 

Stock Options.

 

The Committee may grant Incentive Stock Options (or ISOs) and Non-Qualified Stock Options (or non ISOs) under the 2023 EP Plan. As described below, there are certain tax advantages to employees who receive ISOs; however, certain restrictions also apply to such grants. First, ISOs can be granted only to employees (not to non-employee directors or consultants), and the option exercise price for each ISO shall be at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date the ISO is granted (or 110% in the case of an individual who is a 10% or more owner of the Company). Second, an ISO may not be exercised later than 10 years after the date of grant (or 5 years in the case of 10% or more owners of the Company).

 

Options (ISOs and non ISOs) also may not be exercised later than 3 months (one year in the case of a termination of employment due to disability) after the Grantee’s termination of employment other than due to his or her death.

 

Lastly, common stock will be deemed to be acquired under an ISO only with respect to the first $100,000 worth of common stock (valued on the date of grant) first exercisable in any one calendar year. In other words, if under an ISO, the participant vests in the right to acquire more than $100,000 worth of shares of common stock in any one calendar year, the excess number of shares will not be deemed to have been acquired under a non ISO.

 

Options (ISOs and non ISOs) shall expire at such times as the Committee determines at the time of grant; provided, however, that no Option shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of its grant. Options granted under the 2023 EP Plan shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such restrictions, vesting criteria and conditions as the Committee shall approve. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, if the employment of an employee by, or the services of a non-employee director for, or consultant or advisor to, the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company, terminate for any reasons, then his Option may be exercised at any time within three months after such termination.

 

The Option exercise price is payable in cash or by check; in shares of the Company’s common stock having a fair market value equal to the exercise price; if provided for in the option award agreement, by the Grantee’s check in an amount at least equal to the par value of the common stock being acquired, together with a promissory note; by share withholding; or by a combination of the foregoing. Alternatively, if provided for in the option award agreement, the Grantee may elect to have the Company reduce the number of shares otherwise issuable by a number of shares having a fair market value equal to the exercise price of the Option being exercised.

 

 

 58 

 

 

Options may be transferred only under the laws of descent and distribution and, during the Grantee’s lifetime, shall be exercisable only by the Grantee or his or her legal representative. Additionally, non ISOs may be transferred in whole or in part during a Grantee’s lifetime, upon the approval of the Committee, to a Grantee’s family members through a gift or domestic relations order. Each option award agreement shall specify the Grantee’s (or his or her beneficiary’s) rights in the event of retirement, death or other termination of employment. 

 

For the Option to qualify for the exception to the restrictions imposed on non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, the exercise price (per share of common stock) of any Option must at all times be no less than the fair market value of one share of the underlying common stock determined on the date the Option is granted. 

 

Options may be subject to time and other vesting requirements, such as the attainment of individual or Company-related performance goals and targets as may be provided in the Award Agreement. 

 

Stock Appreciation Rights.

 

Stock Appreciation Rights (or SARs) may be granted under the 2023 EP Plan in such amounts and under such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine. The base value of a SAR shall be equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The term of any SAR granted under the 2023 EP Plan shall be determined by the Committee, provided that the term of any SAR may not exceed ten years. 

 

SARs may be exercised upon such terms and conditions as are imposed by the Committee and set forth under the SAR award agreement. Upon the exercise of an SAR, the Grantee will receive the difference between the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise and the base value of the SAR multiplied by the number of shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. Payment due upon exercise may be in cash or by check; in shares of the Company’s common stock having a fair market value equal to the base value; if provided for in the Award Agreement, by the Grantee’s check in an amount at least equal to the par value of the common stock being acquired, together with a promissory note; by share withholding; or by a combination of the foregoing. Alternatively, if provided for in the SAR award agreement, the Grantee may elect to have the Company reduce the number of shares otherwise issuable by a number of shares having a fair market value equal to the base value of the SAR being exercised. The Company may, in its sole discretion, withhold from any such cash payment any amount necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation for withholding taxes with respect to such payment. 

 

SARs may be transferred only under the laws of descent and distribution and, during the Grantee’s lifetime, shall be exercisable only by the Grantee or his or her legal representative. Additionally, SARs may be transferred in whole or in part during a Grantee’s lifetime, upon the approval of the Committee, to a Grantee’s family members through a gift or domestic relations order. Each SAR award agreement shall specify the Grantee’s (or his or her beneficiary’s) rights in the event of retirement, death or other termination of employment. 

 

SARs may be subject to time and other vesting requirements, such as the attainment of individual or Company-related performance goals and targets.

 

Restricted Stock.

 

Restricted Stock are shares of common stock awarded to a Grantee in amounts and subject to vesting criteria and other terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. The Committee may impose conditions and/or restrictions on the vesting of any shares of Restricted Stock as it deems advisable, including, among others, length of service, corporate performance, or attainment of individual or group performance goals. The Restricted Stock is subject to forfeiture back to the Company in the event the vesting requirements are not met. The period during which such requirements are in effect is referred to as the “restriction period”.

 

Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the shares are vested. 

 

 

 

 59 

 

 

During the restriction period, the Grantee will be the record owner of the Restricted Stock and will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to the shares while they are so restricted. However, any dividends or distributions, whether paid in shares of Company stock, cash or other property, paid during the restricted period will be held by the Company or third-party custodian or trustee and will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock.

 

A Grantee will forfeit all shares of Restricted Stock which do not vest, along with any dividends or distribution on those shares paid during the restriction period, back to the Company.

 

Restricted Stock Units.

 

Each Restricted Stock Unit (or RSU) represents a promise by the Company to deliver to the Grantee one share of common stock at a predetermined date in the future. RSUs may be granted in the amounts and subject to terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. The Committee may impose the conditions and/or restrictions for the vesting of RSUs as it deems advisable, which may be of the same nature and type as those which may be imposed on Restricted Stock as described above. RSUs are subject to forfeiture in the event the vesting requirements are not met.

 

Stock Bonus Grants

 

Stock bonus grants are shares of common stock which may be awarded to a Grantee as a bonus in the amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee which may be of the same nature and type as those which may be imposed on Restricted Stock as described above. The Committee will set performance and other goals for the attainment of stock bonuses, which, depending on the extent to which they are met during the performance periods established by the Committee, will determine the number of bonus stock shares that will be paid to the Grantee.

 

Prior to the date on which a stock bonus grant is required to be paid, the stock bonus grant will constitute an unfunded, unsecured promise by the Company to distribute common stock in the future. 

 

Liquidation, Merger, or Consolidation of the Company

 

If the Board approves a plan of liquidation or a merger or consolidation which results in a change in 50% or more of the voting control of the Company, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that an Option must be exercised within 20 days following the date of such notice or it will be terminated. In the event such notice is given, the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

 

The following table sets forth certain information regarding beneficial ownership of our voting stock as of July 21, 2025, based upon common shares outstanding and by:

 

  · each person or group of affiliated persons known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting stock;
     
  · each “named executive officer” of the Company;
     
  · each of our directors; and
     
  · all executive officers and directors as a group.

 

Unless otherwise noted below, the address of each person listed on the table is c/o Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. at the address set forth herein. To our knowledge, each person listed below has sole voting and investment power over the shares shown as beneficially owned except to the extent jointly owned with spouses or otherwise noted below. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. The information does not necessarily indicate ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, shares of stock which a person has the right to acquire (i.e., by the exercise of any option or the conversion of such person’s outstanding Preferred Stock) within 60 days after July 21,2025, are deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for purposes of calculating the number of shares and the percentage beneficially owned by that person. However, these shares are not deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage beneficially owned by any other person. The percentage of shares beneficially owned as of July 21, 2025, is based upon 21,912,754 shares of Common Stock outstanding on that date(including 125,000 shares of Common Stock to be paid for by a Selling Stockholder within five days of the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part).

Our Board of Directors may issue preferred stock in one or more series without stockholder approval. Our Board of Directors may determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of preferred stock.

  · Series C – one share convertible into 6,667 shares of common stock
  · Series E – one share convertible into 0.0167 shares of common stock  (calculated by taking one share at a rate of its Stated Value, as defined, divided by $0.08, convertible commencing January 31, 2020 and further adjusted by dividing the result by 6000 representing the aggregate amount of two reverse stock splits)

 63 

 

 

Redemption Rights

 

Series E preferred stock is redeemable at any time upon 30 days’ written notice by the Company and the shareholders, at a rate of 100% of the Stated Value, as defined.

 

Mandatory Conversion Right

 

Any outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into common stock based on the Series G Conversion Ratio if the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock for ten (10) consecutive trading days closes over $5.00 per share.

 

Any outstanding shares of Series H Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into common stock based on the Series H Conversion Ratio at the earlier of (i) December 31, 2026, or (ii) at such time as the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock exceeds $2.00 per share for ten (10) consecutive trading days. In August 2024, the Series H Preferred Stock satisfied the mandatory conversion right, resulting in the conversion of all 768,473 shares outstanding into 7,684,730 shares of common stock, exclusive of accrued dividend liabilities totaling $122,954 also being converted into 158,840 shares of common stock.

 

Mandatory Dividend

 

Commencing after the later of (i) the first day of the calendar month after the month in which the Series G shares are issued or (ii) January 2, 2024, the holders of outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock shall receive a monthly dividend of 20% of the Stated Value per share. The dividend shall be paid at the election of the majority holder of the Series G Preferred Stock in cash or in common stock.

  

Commencing January 2, 2024, the holders of outstanding shares of Series H Preferred Stock shall receive a monthly dividend of 1% of the Stated Value per share. The dividend shall be paid at the election of the majority holder of the Series H Preferred Stock in cash or in common stock. If the election is for cash payment, the Company has the right to deliver a one-year secured note bearing interest at the rate of 15% per annum in lieu of paying cash. As discussed above, for the period January 1 through August 6, 2024, the mandatory conversion date, the Company accrued and paid stock dividends of 158,840 common shares totaling $122,954, to the Series H Preferred Stock shareholders.

 

Liquidation Preference

 

The Series G and Series H Preferred Stock have a liquidation preference of the Stated Value per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets or funds legally available for the payment of dividends of such times and in such amounts as the board from time to time may determine. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting of the election of directors then standing for election. The Common Stock is not entitled to pre-emptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are distributable ratably among the holders of the Common Stock after payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding payment of other claims of creditors.

Stock Options and Warrants

 

As of June 30, 2025, the Company has a total of 1,820,764 options outstanding under the Plans and a total of 1,725,000 options outstanding outside of the Plans, or a total of options to purchase 3,545,764 shares of the Company’s Common Stock with a weighted average exercise price of $4.97 per share. The Board has granted options with varying terms. The Company has also granted various officers, directors and employees, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 105,000 shares at varying terms. It is not possible to predict the individuals who will receive future awards under the Plans or outside the Plans or the number of shares of Common Stock covered by any future award because such awards are wholly within the discretion of the Board.

 

We have publicly traded warrants issued in December 2021 trading under the symbol “MOBQW”. These warrants expire in December 2026 and are exercisable as a result of a reverse stock split at $74.70 per share. We currently have outstanding warrants to purchase 703,029 shares with a weighted average exercise price of $54.72 per share.

 

Undesignated Preferred Stock

 

The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of the company. These and other provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of the company.

 

Special Stockholder Meetings

 

Our certificate of incorporation bylaws provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by a majority of our board of directors.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

We currently have outstanding 21,912,754 shares of common stock(including 125,000 shares of Common Stock to be paid for by a Selling Stockholder within five days of the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part) and a public float of about 8,434,000 common shares. Market sales of shares of our Common Stock after this Offering and from time to time, and the availability of shares for future sale, may reduce the market price of our Common Stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Common Stock and could impair our future ability to obtain capital, especially through an offering of equity securities. After the effective date of the registration statement of which this Prospectus is a part, all the shares registered in this Offering will be freely tradable without restrictions or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, unless the shares are purchased by our affiliates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The balance of shares which are not being registered will be eligible for sale pursuant to exemptions from registration. However, these shares not being registered are held by our management and other affiliates who are limited to selling only 1% of our issued and outstanding shares every 90 days.

 

Our Common Stock is considered a “penny stock” and will continue to be considered a penny stock so long as it trades below $5.00 per share and, as such, trading in our Common Stock is subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under this rule, broker/dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements. The broker/dealer must make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent prior to the transaction.

 

SEC regulations also require additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a “penny stock,” including the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and its associated risks. In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from recommending transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the liquidity of our securities and consequently adversely affect the market price for our securities. In addition, few broker or dealers are likely to undertake these compliance activities. Other risks associated with trading in penny stocks could also be price fluctuations and the lack of a liquid market. See “Risk Factors.”

 

RULE 144

 

In general, under Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares for at least six months would be entitled to sell those securities provided that (1) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale and (2) we have been subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale and are current in filing our periodic reports. Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of Common Stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed 1% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Such sales by affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale and notice provisions of Rule 144 and to the availability of current public information about us.

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

The validity of the issuance of the Common Stock offered by this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Morse & Morse PLLC Deer Park, New York.

MOBIQUITY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

 

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. and its operating subsidiaries (“Mobiquity,” “we,” “our” or “the Company”), are a next generation location data intelligence company. The Company provides precise unique, at-scale location data and insights on consumer’s real-world behavior and trends for use in marketing and research. We provide one of the most accurate and scaled solutions for mobile data collection and analysis, utilizing multiple geo-location technologies. The Company is seeking to implement several new revenue streams from its data collection and analysis, including, but not limited to, Advertising, Data Licensing, Footfall Reporting, Attribution Reporting, Real Estate Planning, Financial Forecasting and Custom Research. We also are a developer of advertising and marketing technology focused on the creation, automation, and maintenance of an advertising technology operating system (or ATOS). The ATOS platform blends artificial intelligence (or AI) and machine learning (ML) based optimization technology for automatic ad serving that manages and runs digital advertising campaigns.

 

Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of New York and has the following subsidiaries:

   
Company Name   State of Incorporation
Mobiquity Networks, Inc.   New York
Advangelists, LLC   Delaware

 

Mobiquity Networks, Inc.

 

Mobiquity Networks, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc., commencing operations in May 2018. Mobiquity Networks started and developed as a mobile advertising technology company focused on driving foot-traffic throughout its indoor network and has evolved and grown into a next generation data intelligence company. Mobiquity Networks, Inc. operates our data intelligence platform business.

 

Advangelists, LLC

 

Advangelists LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc., acquired through a merger transaction in December 2018, and operates our ATOS platform business.

 

Liquidity, Going Concern and Management’s Plans

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

 

 

 

 F-6 

 

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company had:

 

· Net loss of $2,295,987 and
· Net cash used in operations was $1,318,996

 

Additionally, at March 31, 2025, the Company had:

 

· Accumulated deficit of $227,929,508
· Stockholders’ equity of $3,189,238, and
· Working capital deficit of $1,673,867.

 

We manage liquidity risk by reviewing, on an ongoing basis, our sources of liquidity and capital requirements. The Company had cash on hand of $331,360 at March 31, 2025.

 

The Company has incurred significant losses since its inception in 1998 and has not demonstrated an ability to generate sufficient revenues from the sales of its products and services to achieve profitable operations. There can be no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, or if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis. In making this assessment we performed a comprehensive analysis of our current circumstances including: our financial position, our cash flows and cash usage forecasts for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the three months ended March 31, 2025, and our current capital structure including equity-based instruments and our obligations and debts.

 

Without sufficient revenue from operations, if the Company does not obtain additional capital, the Company will be required to reduce the scope of its business development activities or cease operations.

 

These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued, as the Company will need additional capital to meet its financial obligations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

 

Management’s strategic plans include the following:

 

· Execution of business plan focused on technology development and improvement,
· Seek out equity and/or debt financing to obtain the capital required to meet the Company’s financial obligations. There is no assurance, however, that lenders and investors will continue to advance capital to the Company or that the new business operations will be profitable.
· Continuing to explore and execute prospective partnering, distribution and acquisition opportunities,
· Identifying unique market opportunities that represent potential positive short-term cash flow.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements (U.S. GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on April 7, 2025.

 

Management acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements which reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary in its opinion for a fair statement of its consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of its operations for the periods presented.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Business Segments and Concentrations

 

The Company uses the “management approach” to identify its reportable segments. The management approach requires companies to report segment financial information consistent with information used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the basis for identifying the Company’s reportable segments. The Company manages its business as a single reporting segment. Customers in the United States accounted for 100% of our revenues. We do not have any property or equipment outside of the United States.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Company assets and liabilities, including the allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

 

 F-8 

 

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial and operational risks and the potential of overall business failure.

 

The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and net earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices in connection with the Company’s service offerings. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for financial instruments at fair value, which is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect certain market assumptions. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  · Level 1—Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets that the Company can access for identical assets or liabilities;
     
  · Level 2—Valuation based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability; and
     
  · Level 3—Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management.

 

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair value. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, investment, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued interest – related party, and contract liabilities. On March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates its carrying value based on current financing rates available to the Company.

 

The Company does not have any other financial or non-financial assets or liabilities that would be characterized as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 instruments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentrations of Risk

 

For the purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

 

On March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

 

 

 

 F-9 

 

 

The Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent account balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC, which is $250,000. On March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company did not experience any losses on cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to funds could have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

 

For the quarters ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, sales of our products to four customers and three customers generated approximately 90% and 87% of our revenues, respectively. Our contracts with our customers generally do not obligate them to a specified term and they can generally terminate their relationship with us at any time with a minimal amount of notice. The loss of one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

 

The Company accounts for its accounts receivable in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326), which provides guidance on how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. Under the standard, disclosures are required to provide users of the consolidated financial statements with useful information in analyzing the Company’s exposure to credit risk and the measurement of credit losses. Financial assets held by the Company that are subject to the guidance in Topic 326 were trade accounts receivable.

 

Accounts receivable represent customer obligations under normal trade terms and are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding customer balances. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral. Two of our customers combined accounted for approximately 74% of outstanding gross accounts receivable at March 31, 2025.

 

The Company had accounts receivable, net, of $23,286, $47,916, and $34,628 at March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and January 1, 2024, respectively.

 

Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for credit losses. The Company provides its allowance for credit losses based upon a review of the outstanding accounts receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Accounts determined to be uncollectible losses are charged to operations when that determination is made.

 

The allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable and the related activity, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, is as follows:

    
Balance, December 31, 2024  $79,832 
Provision for credit losses   39,414 
Write-off of previously reserved account balances    
Balance, March 31, 2025  $119,246 

 

Provision for credit losses expense (recovery) is recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

 

 F-10 

 

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35-15“Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” Events and circumstances considered by the Company in determining whether the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable include but are not limited to significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results; significant changes in the use of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends; and changes in the Company’s business strategy. In determining if impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets and compares this to the carrying amounts of the assets.

 

If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairment was recognized by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

Expenditures for repair and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in current results of operations.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred for the acquisition of Advangelists LLC in December 2018 over the fair value of the underlying identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead, it is tested for impairment at least annually. If management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, the Company will record a charge in an amount equal to the excess of the reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made.

 

The Company performs its annual impairment tests of goodwill as of December 31st of each year, or more frequently, if certain indicators are present. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below the operating segment level, which is referred to as a component. Management identifies its reporting units by assessing whether components (i) have discrete financial information available, (ii) engage in business activities, and (iii) whether a segment manager regularly reviews the component’s operating results. Net assets and goodwill of acquired businesses are allocated to the reporting unit associated with the acquired business based on the anticipated organizational structure of the combined entities. If two or more components are deemed economically similar, those components are aggregated into one reporting unit when performing the annual goodwill impairment review. The Company has one reporting unit as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. No impairment of goodwill was recognized by the Company during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 or fiscal 2024.

 

Intangible Assets

 

In December 2018, the Company acquired the majority of its intangible assets through its acquisition of Advangelists LLC, which included customer relationships and the ATOS platform technology. The Company amortizes its identifiable definite-lived intangible assets over an estimated period of 5 years.

 

 

 

 F-11 

 

 

Capitalized Software Development Costs

 

In accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software, the Company capitalizes certain internal-use software development costs associated with creating and enhancing internally developed software related to its platforms. Software development activities generally consist of three stages (i) the research and planning stage, (ii) the application and development stage, and (iii) the post-implementation stage. Costs incurred in the research and planning stage and in the post-implementation stage of software development, or other maintenance and development expenses that do not meet the qualification for capitalization, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the application and development stage, including significant enhancements and upgrades, are capitalized. These costs include personnel and related employee benefits expenses for employees or consultants directly associated with and who devote time to software projects and external direct costs of materials obtained in developing the software. These software developments and acquired technology are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years upon the initial release of the software or additional features. The Company reviews the software development costs for impairment when circumstances indicate their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess of carrying value over the fair value in its consolidated statements of operations. See Note 3 for further details.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under FASB ASC Topic No. 480, (ASC 480), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and FASB ASC Topic No. 815, (ASC 815) Derivatives and Hedging.

 

Terms of financial instruments are reviewed to determine whether they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract under ASC 815 and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivative liabilities are remeasured to reflect fair value at each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in the results of operations. The Company generally incorporates a binomial model to determine fair value. Upon conversion of a debt instrument where an embedded conversion option has been bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative liability, the Company records the resulting shares issued at fair value, derecognizes all related debt principal, derivative liability, and debt discount, and recognizes a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risk. As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had no derivative instruments outstanding.

 

Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts

 

Debt discounts, debt issuance costs paid to lenders or third parties, and other original issue discounts on debt, are recorded as debt discounts and amortized to interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations, over the term of the underlying debt instrument, using the effective interest method, with the unamortized portion reported net with related principal outstanding on the consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company recognized $140,282 and $53,351 of interest expense, respectively, associated with the amortization of debt discounts on debt outstanding during the periods. Unamortized debt discounts remaining at March 31, 2025, were approximately $194,000 and are expected to be fully amortized during the remainder of 2025. See Note 4 regarding the accounting for debt discounts and debt issuance costs.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenues are generated from internet advertising, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when promised services are transferred to a customer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

 

 

 

 F-12 

 

 

Identify the contract with a customer.

 

A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.

  

Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

 

Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services (performance obligations), the Company must apply a judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. Currently, the Company does not have any contracts that contain multiple performance obligations.

 

Determine the transaction price.

 

The transaction price is determined based on the consideration of which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s contracts outstanding at March 31, 2025, or December 31, 2024, contained a significant financing component or variable consideration terms.

 

Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.

 

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless the transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.

 

Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company satisfies performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to a customer. Under both managed services arrangements and self-service arrangements, the Company’s promised services under the contracts include identification, bidding and purchasing of advertisement opportunities. The Company also generally has discretion in establishing the pricing of the ads. Since the Company is controlling the promise to deliver the contracted services, the Company is considered the principal in all arrangements for revenue recognition purposes. The performance obligations are satisfied, and revenue recognition primarily upon publication of customer advertising content.

 

 

 

 F-13 

 

 

All revenues recognized were derived from internet advertising for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

 

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days.

 

Contract Liabilities

 

Contract liabilities represent deposits made by customers before the satisfaction of performance obligation and recognition of revenue. Upon completion of the performance obligation(s) that the Company has with the customer based on the terms of the contract, the liability for the customer deposit is relieved and revenue is recognized. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $25,486, and as of January 1, 2024, there were $195,135 in contract liabilities outstanding. Contract liabilities are expected to be recognized as revenue within the year following their respective period end.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs are included as a component of general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs were insignificant for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

  

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for our stock-based compensation, including stock options and common stock warrants, under ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation, using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the requisite service period for employee awards, which is usually the vesting period, and when the goods are obtained or services are received, for nonemployee awards. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also applies to transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

 

In connection with certain financing, consulting and collaboration arrangements, the Company may issue warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. The outstanding warrants are standalone instruments that are not puttable or mandatorily redeemable by the holder and are classified as equity awards.

 

The fair value of stock-based compensation is generally determined by using the Black-Scholes valuation model as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date).

 

When determining the fair value of stock-based compensation, the Company considers the following assumptions in the Black-Scholes model:

 

· Exercise price,
· Expected dividends,
· Expected volatility,
· Risk-free interest rate; and
· Expected life of option

 

 

 F-14 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income tax using the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely-than-not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as gain or loss in the period that includes the date of the enactment.

 

The Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company did not identify any uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to recognized uncertain income tax positions, in other expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions were recorded for the periods ended March 31, 2025, and 2024. Open tax years, subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, generally remain open for three years from the filing date. Tax years subject to examination by the state jurisdiction generally remain open for up to four years from the filing date.

 

Related Parties

 

Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

We consider the applicability and impact of all new accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ equity, cash flows, or presentation thereof. Management has evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) through the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued and found no recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective, that when adopted, will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 3: INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

 

The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets consist of a customer relationship asset acquired through the Advangelists, LLC acquisition in 2018, and capitalized software development costs. The intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of five years. The Company periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. These assets are also reviewed for impairment or obsolescence when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. The Company’s customer relationship intangible asset is fully amortized at December 31, 2024.

           
   Useful Life  March 31, 2025   December 31, 2024

The Company ceased capitalizing costs, and commenced marketing its ATOS4P enhancement to the public, during the third quarter of 2024. The Company commenced amortization of the costs associated with the AdHere technology in the second quarter of 2024, when the product was available to the general public.

 

Future amortization of approximately $3,004,000 in unamortized software development costs, by fiscal year, at March 31, 2025, is as follows:

NOTE 7 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Pursuant to ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of common stock issuable for stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method), convertible notes and common stock issuable. These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future. In the event of a net loss, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share since the effect of the potential common stock equivalents upon conversion would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation

 

Michael Trepeta, a former Co-CEO and director of the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company and its subsidiary, Mobiquity Networks in April 2023 in the New York State Supreme Court, Nassau County. The claims stem from a Separation Agreement and Release that Mr. Trepeta and the Company entered into nine years ago in April 2017 which terminated Mr. Trepeta’s employment agreement and discontinued his employment and directorship with the Company, among other things, by mutual agreement. Mr. Trepeta also gave the Company a release in the Separation Agreement and Release. Mr. Trepeta has claimed that the Company fraudulently induced him to enter into the Separation Agreement and Release; that the Company breached Mr. Trepeta’s employment agreement; and that the Company breached its covenant of good faith and fair dealing and its fiduciary duty. Mr. Trepeta is claiming not less than $2.5 Million in damages. Based on the Company’s initial internal review of the situation, the Company believes the claims lack merit and it intends to vigorously defend same. In December 2023, the Company was notified that its motion to dismiss Mr. Trepeta’s action was granted but Mr. Trepeta has filed a notice of appeal. Due to uncertainties inherent in litigation, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

 

NOTE 9 – SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The services segment derives revenues from customers by providing access to its advertising technology applications, or by providing advertising technology campaign management services utilizing the Company’s technology applications. The accounting policies of the services segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant policies herein. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), which is the Company’s CEO, Dean Julia, assesses performance for the services segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statement of operations as consolidated net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

 

The CODM uses results of operations to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest into the services segment or into other parts of the entity. The technology used in the customer arrangements is based on a single software platform utilized by customers or the Company in a similar manner.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Mobiquity Technologies, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2024, and the related consolidated notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph- Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. . As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, at December 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,257,393, an accumulated deficit of $225,633,521 and a net loss of $8,593,182 for the year then ended. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan regarding these matters is also described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require 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 audits, 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 audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that are required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate 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 matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 

Determination of capitalized internally developed software costs asset

 

As discussed in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company capitalizes certain internal-use software costs related to new products as well as existing products when those costs will result in significant additional functionality. The Company’s capitalized internally developed software costs asset, net of accumulated amortization, was $3.2 million as of December 31, 2024. The Company capitalized $1.4 million of internal-use software costs during the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

We identified the determination of capitalized internally developed software costs as a critical audit matter because of the degree of subjectivity involved in assessing which projects and costs met the capitalization criteria.

 

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following. We reviewed the Company’s process to capitalize internal-use software development costs, including the determination of which software development projects met the capitalization criteria. We evaluated the Company’s current year software project capitalization conclusions and discussed the objective and status of the software projects with IT department management to assess those conclusions. We also assessed the reliability of the Company’s conclusions through confirmations and interviews with a sample of individual internal and external software developers regarding the nature of their development activities. We agreed with management’s assessment for the year ended December 31, 2024 which concluded capitalization was appropriate.

 

Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment assessment

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill and capitalized internally developed software costs asset, net, balance was approximately $1.4 million and $3.2 million at December 31, 2024, respectively. Goodwill is tested for impairment by management at least annually at the reporting unit level. The determination of fair value of a reporting unit for the goodwill impairment test requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues and assumptions used in a market approach valuation method such as comparable valuation multiples. Capitalized internally developed software costs are assessed using the guidance for long lived assets using a qualitative approach to assess if any conditions exist for impairment, which was noted by management as none. As disclosed by management, changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting unit or intangible assets and the resulting the impairment charges.

 

We identified the goodwill and long lived asset (specifically capitalized internally developed software costs impairment assessment as a critical audit matter. Auditing management’s judgments regarding the assumptions discussed above involved a high degree of subjectivity.

 

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included (a) evaluated the reasonableness of management’s revenue forecasts by obtaining supporting agreements and confirmations of the expected revenues, (b) evaluated the reasonableness of the comparable valuation multiples assumptions used in the market approach valuation method, (c) evaluated whether the valuation method used by management was appropriate and (e) recomputed the valuation amounts and impairment computations, as applicable. (f) evaluated the qualitative assessment and facts noted with corroboration to information obtained during the audit. We agreed with management’s assessment for the year ended December 31, 2024 which concluded no impairment had occurred for either goodwill or capitalized internally developed software costs.

MOBIQUITY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024, AND 2023

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of New York and has the following subsidiaries:

Schedule of subsidiaries    
Company Name   State of Incorporation
Mobiquity Networks, Inc.   New York
Advangelists, LLC   Delaware

 

Mobiquity Networks, Inc.

 

Mobiquity Networks, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc., commencing operations in January 2011. Mobiquity Networks started and developed as a mobile advertising technology company focused on driving foot-traffic throughout its indoor network and has evolved and grown into a next generation data intelligence company. Mobiquity Networks, Inc. operates our data intelligence platform business.

 

Advangelists, LLC

 

Advangelists LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc., acquired through a merger transaction in December 2018, and operates our ATOS platform business.

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

On August 7, 2023, we effected a one-for-15 reverse stock split. The financial statements and notes thereto give retroactive effect to the reverse stock split as if the split had occurred prior to the dates on the financial statements included herein.

 

Liquidity, Going Concern and Management’s Plans

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had:

 

· Net loss of $8,593,182 and
· Net cash used in operations was $2,406,881

 

Additionally, at December 31, 2024, the Company had:

 

· Accumulated deficit of $225,633,521
· Working capital deficit of $1,257,393

 

 

 F-38 

 

 

We manage liquidity risk by reviewing, on an ongoing basis, our sources of liquidity and capital requirements. The Company had cash on hand of $1,159,933 at December 31, 2024.

 

The Company has incurred significant losses since its inception in 1998 and has not demonstrated an ability to generate sufficient revenues from the sales of its products and services to achieve profitable operations. There can be no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, or if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis. In making this assessment we performed a comprehensive analysis of our current circumstances including: our financial position, our cash flows and cash usage forecasts for the year ended December 31, 2024, and our current capital structure including equity-based instruments and our obligations and debts.

 

Without sufficient revenues from operations, if the Company does not obtain additional capital, the Company will be required to reduce the scope of its business development activities or cease operations.

 

These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued, as the Company will need additional capital to meet its financial obligations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

 

Management’s strategic plans include the following:

 

· Execution of business plan focused on technology development and improvement,
· Seek out equity and/or debt financing to obtain the capital required to meet the Company’s financial obligations. There is no assurance, however, that lenders and investors will continue to advance capital to the Company or that the new business operations will be profitable.
· Continuing to explore and execute prospective partnering, distribution and acquisition opportunities,
· Identifying unique market opportunities that represent potential positive short-term cash flow.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  

Principles of Consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Business Segments and Concentrations

 

The Company uses the “management approach” to identify its reportable segments. The management approach requires companies to report segment financial information consistent with information used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the basis for identifying the Company’s reportable segments. The Company manages its business as a single reporting segment (services) and the chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

 

Customers in the United States accounted for 100% of our revenues. We do not have any property or equipment outside of the United States.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Company assets and liabilities, including the allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

 F-39 

 

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial and operational risks and the potential of overall business failure.

 

The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and net earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices in connection with the Company’s service offerings. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for financial instruments at fair value, which as is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect certain market assumptions. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  · Level 1—Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets that the Company can access for identical assets or liabilities;
     
  · Level 2—Valuation based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability; and
     
  · Level 3—Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management.

 

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair value. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and contract liabilities. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates its carrying value based on current financing rates available to the Company.

 

The Company does not have any other financial or non-financial assets or liabilities that would be characterized as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 instruments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentrations of Risk

 

For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

 

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

 

The Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent account balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC, which is $250,000. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not experience any losses on cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to funds could have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

 

For fiscal 2024 and 2023, sales of our products to two customers generated approximately 58% and 73% of our revenues, respectively. Our contracts with our customers generally do not obligate them to a specified term and they can generally terminate their relationship with us at any time with a minimal amount of notice. The loss of one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of consolidated operations and financial condition.

 

 

 F-40 

 

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326), which significantly change how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The most significant change in this standard is a shift from the incurred loss model to the expected loss model. Under the standard, disclosures are required to provide users of the consolidated financial statements with useful information in analyzing an entity’s exposure to credit risk and the measurement of credit losses. Financial assets held by the Company that are subject to the guidance in Topic 326 were trade accounts receivable. The impact of the adoption was not considered material to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounts receivable represent customer obligations under normal trade terms and are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding customer balances. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral. Three and five of our customers combined accounted for approximately 81% and 61% of outstanding gross accounts receivable at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

The Company had gross accounts receivable of $127,748 and $1,192,538, at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for credit losses. The Company provides its allowance for credit losses based upon a review of the outstanding accounts receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Accounts determined to be uncollectible losses are charged to operations when that determination is made.

 

The allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable and the related activity, for the year ended December 31, 2024, are as follows:

Schedule of allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable activity    
Balance, December 31, 2023  $1,157,910 
Provision for credit losses   78,545 
Write-off of previously reserved account balances   (1,156,623)
Balance, December 31, 2024  $79,832 

 

Bad debt expense (recovery) is recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35-15“Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” Events and circumstances considered by the Company in determining whether the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable include but are not limited to significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results; significant changes in the use of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends; and changes in the Company’s business strategy. In determining if impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets and compares this to the carrying amounts of the assets.

 

If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairment was noted for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

 

 F-41 

 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

Expenditures for repair and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in current results of operations.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred for the acquisition of Advangelists, LLC in December 2018 over the fair value of the underlying identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead, it is tested for impairment at least annually. In the event that management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, the Company will record a charge in an amount equal to the excess of the reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made.

 

The Company performs its annual impairment tests of goodwill as of December 31st of each year, or more frequently, if certain indicators are present. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below the operating segment level, which is referred to as a component. Management identifies its reporting units by assessing whether components (i) have discrete financial information available, (ii) engage in business activities, and (iii) whether a segment manager regularly reviews the component’s operating results. Net assets and goodwill of acquired businesses are allocated to the reporting unit associated with the acquired business based on the anticipated organizational structure of the combined entities. If two or more components are deemed economically similar, those components are aggregated into one reporting unit when performing the annual goodwill impairment review. The Company has one reporting unit as of December 31, 2024, and 2023. No impairment of goodwill was recognized by the Company during fiscal 2024 or 2023.

 

Intangible Assets

 

In December 2018, the Company acquired the majority of its intangible assets through its acquisition of Advangelists LLC, which included customer relationships and the ATOS platform technology. The Company amortizes its identifiable definite-lived intangible assets over an estimated period of 5 years.

 

Capitalized Software Development Costs

 

In accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software, the Company capitalizes certain internal-use software development costs associated with creating and enhancing internally developed software related to its platforms. Software development activities generally consist of three stages (i) the research and planning stage, (ii) the application and development stage, and (iii) the post-implementation stage. Costs incurred in the research and planning stage and in the post-implementation stage of software development, or other maintenance and development expenses that do not meet the qualification for capitalization, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the application and development stage, including significant enhancements and upgrades, are capitalized. These costs include personnel and related employee benefits expenses for employees or consultants directly associated with and who devote time to software projects and external direct costs of materials obtained in developing the software. These software developments and acquired technology are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years upon the initial release of the software or additional features. The Company reviews the software development costs for impairment when circumstances indicate their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess of carrying value over the fair value in its consolidated statements of operations. See Note 3 for further details.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under FASB ASC Topic No. 480, (ASC 480), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and FASB ASC Topic No. 815, (ASC 815) Derivatives and Hedging.

 

 

 F-42 

 

 

Terms of financial instruments are reviewed to determine whether or not they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract under ASC 815 and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivative liabilities are remeasured to reflect fair value at each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations. The Company generally incorporates a binomial model to determine fair value. Upon conversion of a debt instrument where an embedded conversion option has been bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative liability, the Company records the resulting shares issued at fair value, derecognizes all related debt principal, derivative liability, and debt discount, and recognizes a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risk. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no derivative instruments.

 

Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts

 

Debt discounts, debt issuance costs paid to lenders or third parties, and other original issue discounts on debt, are recorded as debt discount or debt issuance costs and amortized to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations, over the term of the underlying debt instrument, using the effective interest method, with the unamortized portion reported net with related principal outstanding on the consolidated balance sheet. For the year’s ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, the Company recorded $439,704 and $738,142, respectively, in interest expense associated with the amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs incurred on debt. The unamortized balance of debt discounts at December 31, 2024 was $176,991. There were no unamortized debt discounts outstanding at December 31, 2023 as a result of full debt settlement during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. See Note 4 regarding the accounting for debt discounts and debt issuance costs during 2024 and 2023.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenues are generated from internet advertising, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when promised services are transferred to a customer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

 

Identify the contract with a customer.

 

A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.

 

Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

 

Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services (performance obligations), the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. Currently, the Company does not have any contracts that contain multiple performance obligations.

 

Determine the transaction price.

 

The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s contracts as of December 31, 2024, and 2023 contained a significant financing component or variable consideration terms.

 

 

 F-43 

 

 

Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.

 

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless the transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.

 

Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company satisfies performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to a customer. Under both managed services arrangements or self-service arrangements, the Company’s promised services under the contracts include identification, bidding and purchasing of advertisement opportunities. The Company also generally has discretion in establishing the pricing of the ads. Since the Company is controlling the promise to deliver the contracted services, the Company is considered the principal in all arrangements for revenue recognition purposes. The performance obligations are satisfied, and revenue recognition, primarily upon publication of customer advertising content.

 

All revenues recognized were derived from internet advertising for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023.

 

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days.

 

Contract Liabilities

 

Contract liabilities represent deposits made by customers before the satisfaction of performance obligation and recognition of revenue. Upon completion of the performance obligation(s) that the Company has with the customer based on the terms of the contract, the liability for the customer deposit is relieved and revenue is recognized. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were $25,486 and $195,135, respectively, in contract liabilities outstanding. Contract liabilities are expected to be recognized as revenue within the year following December 31.

  

Advertising

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs are included as a component of general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs incurred during the year ended December 31, 2024 was $12,902. During fiscal 2023, advertising costs were insignificant.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for our stock-based compensation, including stock options and common stock warrants, under ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation, using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the requisite service period for employee awards, which is usually the vesting period, and when the goods are obtained or services are received, for nonemployee awards. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also applies to transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

 

In connection with certain financing, consulting and collaboration arrangements, the Company may issue warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. The outstanding warrants are standalone instruments that are not puttable or mandatorily redeemable by the holder and are classified as equity awards.

 

 

 F-44 

 

 

The fair value of stock-based compensation is generally determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date).

  

When determining fair value of stock-based compensation, the Company considers the following assumptions in the Black-Scholes model:

 

· Exercise price,
· Expected dividends,
· Expected volatility,
· Risk-free interest rate; and
· Expected life of option

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income tax using the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as gain or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2024, and 2023, the Company did not identify any uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to recognized uncertain income tax positions, in other expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023. Open tax years subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service generally remain open for three years from the filing date. Tax years subject to examination by the state jurisdictions generally remain open for up to four years from the filing date.

 

Related Parties

Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 – Segment Reporting (Topic ASC 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The ASU improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosure about significant segment expenses. The enhancements under this update require disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, require disclosure of other segment items by reportable segment and a description of the composition of other segment items, require annual disclosure under ASC 280 to be provided in interim periods, clarify use of more than one measure of segment profit or loss to make decisions, and require that entities with a single reporting segment provide all disclosures required by this update and required under ASC 280. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the annual period ended December 31, 2024.

 

Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions: On September 30, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03 (ASU 2022-03), which clarifies the guidance in Topic 820 on the fair value measurement of an equity security that is subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security. ASU 2022-03 also requires specific disclosures related to such an equity security, including (1) the fair value of such equity securities reflected in the balance sheet, (2) the nature and remaining duration of the corresponding restrictions, and (3) any circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restrictions. ASU 2022-03 clarifies that a “contractual restriction prohibiting the sale of an equity security is a characteristic of the reporting entity holding the equity security” and is not included in the equity security’s unit of account. Accordingly, an entity should not consider the contractual sale restriction when measuring the equity security’s fair value (i.e., the entity should not apply a discount related to the contractual sale restriction, as stated in ASC 820-10-35-36B as amended by the ASU). The ASU also prohibits an entity from recognizing a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account. For the Company, ASU 2022-03 became effective for quarter ended March 31, 2024 and did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Investor Note Payable

 

On December 30, 2022, the Company and Walleye Opportunities Master Fund Ltd, a Cayman Islands company (the Investor), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the SPA) for the Investor to purchase from the Company (i) a senior secured 20% original issue discount (OID) nine-month promissory note in an aggregate gross principal amount of $1,437,500, less the 20% OID of $287,500, for a net subscription amount of $1,150,000 (the Investor Note), and (ii) a five year warrant to purchase 174,242 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $6.60 per share, exercisable commencing July 1, 2023 and expiring December 30, 2027 (the Investor Warrant). Proceeds from the SPA were received by the Company in January 2023. Per terms of the SPA, if at any time commencing July 1, 2023, the Company issues, sells, or announces for sale, any shares of its common stock (Subsequent Equity Sale) for a per share price less than the exercise price of the Investor Warrant in effect immediately prior to such Subsequent Equity Sale, the exercise price of the Investor Warrant shall be reduced to an amount equal to the issuance price of the Subsequent Equity Sale.

 

In conjunction with the SPA, the Company issued 34,849 shares of common stock, or approximately 5.3% of the Company’s outstanding shares at the time, to the Investor as an incentive on the transaction (Incentive Shares). Excluding the above-referenced Investor Warrant, the shares of common stock exercisable pursuant to such Investor Warrant are not being considered beneficially owned by the Investor until the Investor Warrant is exercisable within 60 days. Total issuance fees of $138,500 associated with the closing of the SPA were paid by the Company to Spartan Capital Securities LLC and the Investor’s counsel, resulting in net proceeds of $1,011,500. Approximately $163,000 of the loan proceeds were utilized to repay the outstanding principal and accrued interest under a SBA loan outstanding at the time.

 

 

 

 

 

 F-47 

 

 

The Investor Note will only become convertible into common stock upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under and as defined in the Investor Note on terms set forth in the Investor Note. This Investor Note matured and was payable on or before September 30, 2023, and it provided that the Investor may demand prepayment after March 31, 2023 and before the maturity date, provided that the purchasers of securities in a future public offering by the Company, as defined in the SPA, who hold the purchased Company securities at the time the prepayment demand, unanimously consent to the prepayment. The Company granted a security interest in all of its assets to the Investor as collateral for its obligations under the Investor Note pursuant to a Security Agreement. In addition, the Company’s subsidiaries guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the Investor Note pursuant to a Subsidiary Guarantee and granted a first lien security interest in all of their assets to the Investor as additional collateral pursuant to the Security Agreement. All securities sold in the above-described transaction contain certain piggy-back registration rights after the completion of the Company’s February 2023 Offering. On June 30, 2023, the secured debt was paid in full through the proceeds of the Company’s June 2023 Offering. See Note 6.

 

The aforementioned Investor Warrant was deemed to be an equity-classified derivative instrument with a fair value of $1,526,363 at the date of closing on the SPA, incorporating the use of the Black-Scholes valuation model, and the Incentive Shares were deemed to have a fair value of $318,863 based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the day preceding the closing of the Agreement. Per accounting guidance under ASC 815, the Company recorded the fair values of the Investor Warrant and Incentive Shares based on the relative fair value allocation method, which allocates fair values as a percentage of total fair value of the debt, Investor Warrant, and Incentive Shares, in proportion to the net proceeds received (after deducting fees paid to lender) under the Investor Note of $1,150,000. As a result of applying the relative fair value allocation method, the Investor Warrant was assigned a relative fair value of $586,040 and the Incentive Shares were assigned a relative fair value of $122,426, at the date of closing on the SPA. The fair values of the Investor Warrant, the Incentive Shares, the OID of $287,500, and the $138,500 in debt issuance costs paid, were recorded as debt discounts and debt issuance costs totaling $1,134,466. Amortization associated with the total debt discounts is being recognized using the effective interest method over the term of the Investor Note, which matured on September 30, 2023. For the first six months of fiscal 2023, $738,142 in amortization on the debt discounts was recognized as interest expense and is included on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. The remaining unamortized debt discounts of $396,322 were written off as loss on debt extinguishment upon full settlement of the Investor Note in conjunction with proceeds received from the June 2023 Public Offering. See Note 6.

In conjunction with the Walleye SPA, the Company issued 34,849 shares of common stock, or approximately 5.3% of the Company’s outstanding shares at that time, to the Investor as an incentive on the transaction (Incentive Shares). Excluding the above-mentioned Investor Warrant, the shares of Common Stock exercisable pursuant to such Investor Warrant are not being considered beneficially owned by the Investor until the Investor Warrant is exercisable within 60 days. Total issuance fees of $138,500 associated with the closing of the Walleye SPA were paid by the Company to Spartan Capital Securities LLC and the Investor’s counsel, resulting in net proceeds of $1,011,500. Approximately $163,000 of the loan proceeds were utilized to repay the outstanding principal and accrued interest under an SBA loan.

 

The Investor Note will only become convertible into common stock upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under and as defined in the Investor Note on terms set forth in the Investor Note. This Investor Note matured and was payable on or before September 30, 2023, and it provided that the Investor may demand prepayment after March 31, 2023, and before the maturity date, provided that the purchasers of securities in a future public offering by the Company, as defined in the Walleye SPA, who hold the purchased Company securities at the time the prepayment demand, unanimously consent to the prepayment.

In addition, the Company’s subsidiaries guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the Investor Note pursuant to a Subsidiary Guarantee and granted a first lien security interest in all their assets to the Investor as additional collateral pursuant to the Security Agreement. All securities sold in the above-described transaction contain certain piggy-back registration rights after the completion of our February 2023 Offering (see below). During the third quarter of 2023, the secured debt was paid in full through the proceeds of the Company’s June 2023 Offering.

 

The aforementioned Investor Warrant was deemed to be an equity-classified derivative instrument with a fair value of $1,526,363 at the date of closing on the Agreement, incorporating the use of the Black-Scholes valuation model, and the Incentive Shares were deemed to have a fair value of $318,863 based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the day preceding the closing of the Walleye SPA. Per accounting guidance under ASC 815, the Company recorded the fair values of the Investor Warrant and Incentive Shares based on the relative fair value allocation method, which allocates fair values as a percentage of total fair value of the debt, Investor Warrant, and Incentive Shares, in proportion to the net proceeds received under the Investor Note of $1,150,000. As a result of applying the relative fair value allocation method, the Investor Warrant was assigned a relative fair value of $586,040 and the Incentive Shares were assigned a relative fair value of $122,426, at the date of closing on the Walleye SPA. Amortization associated with the total debt discounts is being recognized using the effective interest method over the term of the Investor Note, which matured on September 30, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, $377,149 in amortization on the debt discounts was recognized as interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations, and the remaining unamortized debt discounts of $396,322 were written off as loss on debt extinguishment upon full settlement of the Investor Note in conjunction with proceeds received from the June 2023 Offering.

NOTE 7 – STOCK OPTION PLANS AND WARRANTS

 

During Fiscal 2005, the Company established, and the stockholders approved, an Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan (the “2005 Plan”) for the granting of up to 334 non-statutory and incentive stock options and stock awards to directors, officers, consultants and key employees of the Company. On June 9, 2005, the Board of Directors amended the Plan to increase the number of stock options and awards to be granted under the Plan to 667 shares. During Fiscal 2009, the Company established a plan of long-term stock-based compensation incentives for selected Eligible Participants of the Company covering 667 shares. This plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by stockholders in October 2009 (the “2009 Plan”). In September 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares covered by the 2009 Plan to 1,667 shares. In the first quarter of 2016, the Board approved, and stockholders ratified a 2016 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan covering 1,667 shares (the “2016 Plan”) and approved moving all options which exceeded the 2009 Plan limits to the 2016 Plan. In December 2018, the Board of Directors adopted and in February 2019 the stockholders ratified the 2018 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan covering 5,000 shares (the “2018 Plan”). On April 2, 2019, the Board approved the “2019 Plan” identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2019 Plan covers 10,000 shares. The 2019 Plan required stockholder approval by April 2, 2020, to be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2019 Plan. On October 13, 2021, the Board approved the “2021 Plan” identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2021 Plan covers 73,334 shares. The 2021 Plan required stockholder approval by October 13, 2022, to be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2021 Plan. On April 17, 2023, the Board approved a 2023 Equity Participation Plan similar to the Plans described herein, except that this Plan also provides for the grant of Restricted Unit Awards (the “2023 EP Plan”). Under the 2023 EP Plan, which was approved by stockholders on May 15, 2023, a maximum of 166,667 shares may be granted. On December 19, 2023, the Board approved the 2023 Employee Benefit and Consulting Compensation Plan (the “2023 Plan”) identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2023 Plan covers 4,000,000 shares (as amended in October 2024). The 2005 Plan, 2009 Plan, 2016 Plan, 2018 Plan, 2019 Plan, 2021 Plan, the 2023 EP Plan, and 2023 Plan are collectively referred to as the “Plans.”

  

In April 2023, Dean Julia was granted 833 options from the Company’s 2021 Plan with immediate vesting, at an exercise price of $3.30 and expiration of April 2032.

 

 

 

 F-58 

 

 

In March and April 2023, Nate Knight and Byron Booker were each granted 1,667 options from the Company’s 2021 Plan with immediate vesting, at an exercise price of $3.30, and expiration of March 2028 and April 2028, respectively.

 

On December 19, 2023, the board approved, under the 2023 Plan, granting five-year Non-Statutory Stock Options to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock, immediately exercisable at $0.20 per share to various officers, directors, employees and consultants. Exemption from registration is claimed under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

On October 8, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the increase in the number of shares available under the 2023 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan from 2,000,000 shares to 4,000,000 shares and granted a total of 1,725,000 non-statutory stock options with a 5-year term, immediately exercisable to several officers, directors, employees and consultants at an exercise price of $2.45 per share.

  

All stock options under the Plans are granted at or above the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date. Employee and non-employee stock options vest over varying periods and generally expire either 5 or 10 years from the grant date. The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For option grants, the Company will take into consideration payments subject to the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation. The weighted average assumptions made in calculating the fair values of options granted during fiscal 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

Schedule of assumptions used

Options exercisable, December 31, 2024   3,545,764   $4.97    4.41   $7,171,982 

 

The per share weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during fiscal 2024, was $2.45.

 

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable on December 31, 2024, is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the market price of the Company’s common stock for the shares that had exercise prices lower than the $3.38 closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2024. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was $4,093,346 and $306,929 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

As of December 31, 2024, the unamortized compensation cost related to unvested stock option awards is $0, with no expected costs to be recognized during fiscal 2025 and 2026, respectively.

NOTE 8 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Pursuant to ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of common stock issuable for stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method), convertible notes and common stock issuable. These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future. In the event of a net loss, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share since the effect of the potential common stock equivalents upon conversion would be anti-dilutive.

  

The following potentially dilutive equity securities outstanding as of December 31, 2024, and 2023 are as follows:

Schedule of anti dilutive securities        
   December 31, 2024   December 31, 2023 
Stock options   3,545,764    1,876,275 
Warrants   1,003,358    653,358 
Series AAA preferred stock   314,124    209,525 
Series H preferred stock       7,684,730 
Total common stock equivalents   4,863,246    10,423,888 

 

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation

 

Michael Trepeta, a former Co-CEO and director of the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company and its subsidiary, Mobiquity Networks in April 2023 in the New York State Supreme Court, Nassau County. The claims stem from a Separation Agreement and Release that Mr. Trepeta and the Company entered into six years ago in April 2017 which terminated Mr. Trepeta’ s employment agreement and discontinued his employment and directorship with the Company, among other things, by mutual agreement. Mr. Trepeta also gave the Company a release in the Separation Agreement and Release. Mr. Trepeta has claimed that the Company fraudulently induced him to enter into the Separation Agreement and Release; that the Company breached Mr. Trepeta’ s employment agreement; and that the Company breached its covenant of good faith and fair dealing and its fiduciary duty. Mr. Trepeta is claiming not less than $2.5 Million in damages. Based on the Company’s initial internal review of the situation, the Company believes the claims lack merit and it intends to vigorously defend same. In December 2023, the Company was notified that its motion to dismiss Mr. Trepeta’s action was granted but Mr. Trepeta has filed a notice of appeal. Due to uncertainties inherent in litigation, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The services segment derives revenues from customers by providing access to its advertising technology applications, or by providing advertising technology campaign management services utilizing the Company’s technology applications. The accounting policies of the services segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant policies herein. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), which is the Company’s CEO, Dean Julia, assesses performance for the services segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statement of operations as consolidated net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

 

The CODM uses results of operations to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest into the services segment or into other parts of the entity. The technology used in the customer arrangements is based on a single software platform utilized by customers or the Company in a similar manner.

PART II — INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

Item 13. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution. 

 

We are paying all expenses of the offering. The following table sets forth all expenses to be paid by the registrant. All amounts shown are estimates except for the registration fee.

 

     
Legal Fees and Expenses  $35,000.00 
Accounting Fees and Expenses   5,000.00 
Miscellaneous Fees   10,000.000 
Total  $50,000.00 

 

* These fees are calculated based on the securities offered and the number of issuances and accordingly cannot be estimated at this time. The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the estimated amount of expenses of any offering of securities.

 

We have directors’ and officers’ liability insurance insuring our directors and officers against liability for acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

 

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

The New York Business Corporation Law contains provisions permitting and, in some situations, requiring New York corporations to provide indemnification to their officers and directors for losses and litigation expense incurred in connection with their service to the corporation. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions requiring our indemnification of our directors and officers and other persons acting in their corporate capacities. In addition, we may enter into agreements with our directors providing contractually for indemnification consistent with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws. Currently, we have no such agreements, other than employment agreements with our executive officers, which provide for indemnification to the fullest extent as permitted by law. The New York Business Corporation Law also authorizes us to purchase insurance for our directors and officers insuring them against risks as to which we may be unable lawfully to indemnify them. We have obtained limited insurance coverage for our officers and directors as well as insurance coverage to reimburse us for potential costs of our corporate indemnification of officers and directors. As far as exculpation or indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted for directors and officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such exculpation or indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court’s decision.

Issuance of Common Stock for Services

 

In December 2023, the Company entered a one-year consulting contract with an unrelated party. In accordance with the contract, the consultant received a signing bonus of $25,000 in cash, 100,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $14,000, and warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock, exercisable over a three-year period at $0.20 per share, valued at $25,000. In addition, the consultant is to receive monthly cash payments of $12,500 over the term of the agreement.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned hereby undertakes:

 

(1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
     
  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
     
  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

(2)    That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3)    To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4)    That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(5)    That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
     
  (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
     
  (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
     
  (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

 

 II-14 

 

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
