**PART I**

**ITEM 1. BUSINESS**

**Business Overview**

MDwerks, Inc. (the "Company," "MDwerks," "we," "us," or "our"), a Delaware corporation, is a technology company pioneering the development of innovative energy wave solutions for industrial and other commercial enterprises. Our expertise in radio wave technologies and microwave technologies has led to multiple breakthroughs with applications both industrial and commercial. Our patented energy wave technology introduces a revolutionary approach to industrial processes by specific molecular targeting, which can be applied at precise and multiple locations in a system in ways that conventional single point heat sources cannot, resulting in improved efficiency, higher quality, and reduced processing time. In December 2023, we completed the acquisition of RF Specialties, LLC ("RFS") and Two Trees Beverage Co. and its subsidiaries ("Two Trees").

RFS, is engaged in the business of developing sustainable radio frequency ("RF") applications, and for over 14 years, has addressed a variety of challenges faced by companies by implementing automated radio frequency technology. One of these applications is a method for the rapid aging of distilled spirits using RF energy. This proprietary Spirits Rapid Aging System ("SRAS") reduces energy and production costs and increases the speed to market for distilled beverages when compared to traditional methods. .

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Two Trees Beverage Company, utilizes the SRAS, validating the use of this patented energy wave technology within the premium craft spirits industry. Our proprietary and patented molecular targeting system swiftly and sustainably transforms distillate to maturity, delivering traditional flavors in a fraction of the time with greatly reduced environmental impact and cost. Precision engineered to match traditional aging flavors and aromas, it has been used to produce over 50 SKUs and many award-winning products.

**Overview of the Business of Two Trees**

Our Two Trees spirits business produces a variety of aged alcoholic beverages using our innovative rapid-aging system. This scalable technology results in all-natural, high-quality products, quickly and efficiently produced, with a reduced environmental impact. Our products are nearly indistinguishable from those that are traditionally aged.

Deep in Appalachian Mountain country, we created a proprietary process that mirrors and accelerates the natural aging process that occurs when alcohol is aged in wooden barrels over time. The true art of our craft spirits lives within the balance between the distillate selection, local water, and the full-bodied flavors from our wood chip varieties that are toasted to just the right char, bringing rich barrel flavor profiles to life.

**<u>Whiskey-as-a-Service</u>**

Among our accomplishments to start the year, we successfully launched our "Whiskey-as-a-Service" ("WaaS") business model, offering use of the SRAS through a flexible technology license structure to enable customers to access this transformative technology with minimal upfront investment, while securing long-term, predictable revenue streams for the Company. We also offer on-site aging of bulk spirits.

We have signed new contracts with two companies for the construction and deployment of our proprietary SRAS and see excellent potential for multiple additional SRAS deployments by both customers within the next twelve months as well as by other third parties.

The first of these units is anticipated to be installed on site at one of the largest distilleries in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2026, with the second unit deployed approximately three months thereafter. The second contract is with a leading U.S. wholesaler and broker of bulk spirits for one SRAS unit at their facility, which is estimated to be installed in the third quarter of 2026.

Under both contracts, RFS will manufacture and assemble the SRAS units and provide ongoing machine servicing and maintenance in addition to the recurring monthly license payments from the customers for use of the SRAS units.

These contracts validate the economic and sustainability benefits of our SRAS units and provide us with attractive recurring revenue streams through licensing agreements and ancillary fees for ongoing machine servicing and maintenance.

Building on the momentum of our first two WaaS contracts, we signed a separate new agreement with an international spirits investment fund (the "Fund") providing the Fund with limited exclusivity for the deployment of our SRAS units in three countries outside of the United States. To retain exclusivity, the Fund is required to deploy at least one SRAS unit annually in each of the three countries.

In 2025, we began aging tanker loads of distillate at our facility for one of our SRAS customers to fill immediate demand for aged spirits. In early 2026, we completed installation of a higher capacity SRAS at our Two Trees facility in order to increase existing production across our aging services and brand production.

**<u>Two Trees Brands</u>**

Using the SRAS at our own facility, Two Trees has built an award winning portfolio of more than 30 spirit labels including bourbon, whiskey, flavored whiskeys and vodka that are produced in a fraction of the time it takes to produce traditional aged spirits. Two Trees on site tasting room has received the Best of Ashville awards in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

Our new Land of the Sky Straight Bourbon Whiskey received a Gold Award in the 2025 New York International Spirits Competition. Our Two Trees Snarly Yow Bourbon and Tim Smith Climax Honey Raspberry each won Silver awards at the 2025 SIP Awards, with the Climax Honey Raspberry winning the 2025 Innovation Award also.

Three of Two Trees portfolio brands received 2022 SIP Awards, with its Two Trees Carolina Peach Whiskey receiving a Platinum Award, Two Trees Sea Salted Caramel Whiskey receiving a Gold Award and Two Trees Old Fashioned RTD receiving a Gold Award. Also, two of its portfolio brands received 2022 50 Best Awards with Two Trees Peanut Butter Whiskey and Two Trees Sea Salted Caramel Whiskey receiving Best Flavored Whiskey awards.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

**Risks Related to Our Company**

***Risks related to our operations.***

We generated revenues of $2,214,542 and $2,364,093, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Our ability to continue to generate revenue and grow our revenue will depend, in part, on our ability to execute our business plan, expand our business model in a timely manner. We may fail to do so. A variety of factors outside of our control could affect our ability to generate revenue and increase revenue growth.

***We have incurred net losses since our inception and expect losses to continue.***

We have not been profitable since our inception. Our net losses were $3,797,990 and $1,621,117 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and our accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $6,158,495 and $2,360,505, respectively. If we are unable to achieve and maintain profitability, we may be unable to continue our operations. There is a risk that we may never bring our acquired business or assets and subsequent business operations to the marketplace. In addition, there is no guarantee that our subsequent operations will be profitable in the future, and you could lose your entire investment.

***We may not be able to continue as a going concern if we do not obtain additional financing.***

Our independent registered public accounting firm included in its opinion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 an explanatory paragraph referring to our recurring losses from operations and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, reduce expenditures and generate significant revenue. Our financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 did not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The reaction of investors to the inclusion of a going concern statement by our auditors, and our potential inability to continue as a going concern, in future years could materially adversely affect our share price and our ability to raise new capital.

***Our operations rely on the need for qualified servicers of our specialized microwave technology machinery, as well as on the availability for parts.***

RF Specialties addresses companies' most pressing challenges by implementing automated Radio Frequency Technology Systems in a sustainable way reducing energy costs and increasing speed to market when compared to traditional methods. RF Specialties Radio Frequency Technology Systems are utilized in several applications, including pasteurization, disinfestation process is a non-thermal food processing technique that uses high-frequency electromagnetic energy to kill harmful microorganisms in dry food commodities. The Company also targets applications of this process in engineered wood products, adhesives, wood forest products and food and beverages. In addition to providing the machinery and technology needed for these types of applications, RF Specialties employs qualified personnel that are capable and knowledgeable about our technology and install and service our systems. In the event that no qualified installers or servicers are available, we could experience unfavorable business results including the loss of our contracts and a loss of the market for our technology.

***Changes in consumer preferences and purchases, any decline in the social acceptability of our products, or governmental adoption of policies disadvantageous to beverage alcohol could negatively affect our business results.***

Our Two Trees Beverage Company business is a branded consumer products company in a highly competitive market, and our success depends substantially on our continued ability to offer consumers appealing, high-quality products. Consumer preferences and purchases may shift, often in unpredictable ways, as a result of a variety of factors, including health and wellness trends; changes in economic conditions, demographic, and social trends; public health policies and initiatives; changes in government regulation of beverage alcohol products; concerns or regulations related to product safety; legalization of cannabis and its use on a more widespread basis in the markets where we operate; and changes in trends related to travel, leisure, dining, gifting, entertaining, and beverage consumption. As a result, consumers may begin to shift their consumption and purchases from our premium and super-premium products, or away from alcoholic beverages entirely. This shift includes consumption at home as a result of various factors, including shifts in social trends, and shifts in the channels for the purchases of our products. These shifts in consumption and purchasing channels could adversely impact our profitability. Consumers also may begin to prefer the products of competitors or may generally reduce their demand for brands produced by larger companies. Over the past several decades, the number of small, local distilleries in the United States has grown significantly. This growth is being driven by a trend of consumers showing increasing interest in locally produced, regionally sourced products. As more brands enter the market, increased competition could negatively affect demand for our premium and super-premium American whiskey brands, including Jack Daniel's. In addition, we could experience unfavorable business results if we fail to attract consumers from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities in all markets where we sell our products.

Expansion into new product categories by other suppliers, or innovation by new entrants into the market, could increase competition in our product categories. Increased competition may, among other things, negatively impact our ability to maintain or gain market share; increase pricing pressure, which inhibits our ability to adequately respond to inflationary changes in commodities used in making our products; require increases in marketing and promotional activities; and negatively impact the market for our products. To continue to succeed, we must anticipate or react effectively to shifts in demographics, our competition, consumer behavior, consumer preferences, drinking tastes, and drinking occasions.

***Production facility disruption could adversely affect our business.***

Our liquor products are distilled at a single location. A catastrophic event causing physical damage, disruption, or failure at our facility could adversely affect our business. These and other supply (or supply chain) disruptions could prevent us from meeting consumer demand for the affected products in the short and medium term. In addition to catastrophic events identified above, supply disruptions could include the temporary inability to make our products at normal levels or at all. We could also experience disruptions if our suppliers are unable to deliver supplies. Our business continuity plans may not prevent business disruption, and reconstruction of any damaged facilities could require a significant amount of time and resources.

***Higher costs or unavailability of water, raw materials, product ingredients, or labor could adversely affect our financial results.***

Our products use materials and ingredients that we purchase from a variety of suppliers across the United States. Our ability to make and sell our products depends on the availability of the raw materials, product ingredients, finished products, wood, glass bottles, bottle closures, packaging, and other materials used to produce and package them. Without sufficient quantities of one or more key materials, our business and financial results could suffer. If any of our key suppliers were no longer able to meet our timing, quality, or capacity requirements, ceased doing business with us, or significantly raised prices, and we could not promptly develop alternative cost-effective sources of supply or production, our operations and financial results could suffer.

Higher costs or insufficient availability of suitable grain alcohol, corn bourbon and other distillates, water, molasses, wood, glass, closures, and other input materials, or higher associated labor costs or insufficient availability of labor, may adversely affect our financial results. Similarly, when energy costs rise, our transportation, freight, and other operating costs, such as distilling and bottling expenses, also may increase. Our freight cost and the timely delivery of our products could be adversely affected by a number of factors, including driver or equipment shortages, higher fuel costs, weather conditions, traffic congestion, ocean freight lane disruptions, shipment container availability, rail shutdowns, increased government regulation, and other matters that could reduce the profitability of our operations. Our financial results may be adversely affected if we cannot pass along energy, freight, or other input cost increases through higher prices to our customers without reducing demand or sales.

International or domestic geopolitical or other events, including the imposition of any tariffs or quotas by governmental authorities on any raw materials that we use in the production of our products, could adversely affect the supply and cost of these raw materials to us. While we do not currently expect our production operations to be directly impacted by conflicts around the world, changes in global grain and commodity pricing and availability may impact the markets where we operate. If we cannot offset higher raw material costs with higher selling prices, increased sales volume, or reductions in other costs, our profitability could be adversely affected.

Weather, acute or chronic climate change impacts, fires, diseases, and other agricultural uncertainties that affect the health, yield, quality, or price of the various raw materials used in our products also present risks for our business, including in some cases potential impairment in the recorded value of our inventory. Increasing average temperatures could also affect the maturation and yield of our aged inventory over time. Changes in weather patterns or intensity can disrupt our supply chain as well, which may affect production operations, insurance costs and coverage, and the timely delivery of our products.

Water is an essential component of our products, so the quality and quantity of available water is critical to our ability to operate our business. If extended droughts become more common or severe, or if our water supply is interrupted for other reasons, high-quality water could become scarce in some key production regions for our products, which in turn could adversely affect our business and financial results.

***Product recalls or other product liability claims could materially and adversely affect our sales.***

The success of our brands depends on the positive image that consumers have of them. We could decide to or be required to recall products due to suspected or confirmed product contamination, product tampering, spoilage, regulatory non-compliance, food safety issues, or other quality issues. Any of these events could adversely affect our financial results. Actual contamination, whether deliberate or accidental, could lead to inferior product quality and even illness, injury, or death of consumers, potential liability claims, and material loss. Should a product recall become necessary, or we voluntarily recall a product in the event of contamination, damage, or other quality issue, sales of the affected product or our broader portfolio of brands could be adversely affected. A significant product liability judgment or widespread product recall may negatively impact sales and our business and financial results. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, resulting negative publicity could adversely affect our reputation with existing and potential customers and our corporate and brand image.

***Negative publicity could affect our business performance.***

Unfavorable publicity, whether accurate or not, related to our industry or to us or our products, brands, marketing, executive leadership, employees, Board of Directors members, family, stockholders, operations, current or anticipated business performance, or environmental or social efforts could negatively affect our corporate reputation, stock price, ability to attract and retain high-quality talent, or the performance of our brands and business.

Adverse publicity or negative commentary on social media, whether accurate or not, particularly any that go "viral," could cause consumers or other stakeholders to react by disparaging or avoiding our brands or company, which could materially negatively affect our financial results. Additionally, investor advocacy groups, institutional investors, other market participants, stockholders, employees, consumers, customers, influencers, and policymakers have focused increasingly on the environmental, social, and governance or "sustainability" positions and practices of companies.

If our positions or practices do not meet investor or other stakeholder expectations and standards, which continue to evolve, our corporate reputation, stock price, ability to attract and retain high-quality talent, and the performance of our brands and business may be negatively affected. Stakeholders and others who disagree with our company's actions, positions, or statements may speak negatively or advocate against the company, with the potential to harm our reputation or business through negative publicity, adverse government treatment, or other means.

***The requirements of remaining a public company may strain our resources, which could make it difficult to manage our business.***

We are required to comply with various regulatory and reporting requirements, including those required by the SEC. Complying with these reporting and other regulatory requirements are time-consuming and expensive and could have a negative effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We are required to comply with certain provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act") including maintaining internal controls over financial reporting, and if we fail to continue to comply, our business could be harmed, and the price of our securities could decline.

***We expect to face intense competition, often from companies with greater resources and experience than we have.***

We are likely to face competition from companies that have substantially greater financial, technological, managerial and research and development resources and experience than we have. In addition, if we are successful in closing an acquisition of one or more target companies, these acquired companies are likely to face competition for their service and product offerings from large and well-established companies that have greater production capabilities and marketing and sales experience than we have. If we are unable to compete successfully, we may be unable to grow, sustain our revenue or be successful in achieving our business plan.

***We are growing the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing any growth we may achieve.***

As our growth plans proceed and development and commercialization plans and strategies develop, we expect to need additional development, managerial, operational, sales, marketing, financial, accounting, legal, and other resources. Future growth would impose significant added responsibilities on members of management. Our management may not be able to accommodate those added responsibilities, and our failure to do so could prevent us from effectively managing future growth, if any, and successfully growing our Company.

***If we are unable to develop and maintain our brand and reputation for our service and product offerings, our business and prospects could be materially harmed.***

Our business and prospects depend, in part, on developing and then maintaining and strengthening our brand and reputation in the markets we will serve and for the companies we acquire. If problems arise with our future products or services, our brand and reputation could be diminished. If we fail to develop, promote and maintain our brand and reputation successfully, our business and prospects could be materially harmed.

**Legal and Regulatory Risks**

***National and local governments may adopt regulations or undertake investigations that could limit our business activities or increase our costs.***

Our business is subject to extensive regulatory requirements regarding production, exportation, importation, marketing and promotion, labeling, distribution, pricing, and trade practices, among others. Changes in laws, regulatory measures, or governmental policies, or the manner in which current ones are interpreted, could subject us to governmental investigations, cause us to incur material additional costs or liabilities, and jeopardize the growth of our business in the affected market. Specifically, governments could prohibit, impose, or increase limitations on advertising and promotional activities, or times or locations where beverage alcohol may be sold or consumed, or adopt other measures that could limit our opportunities to reach consumers or sell our products. Certain countries historically have banned all television, newspaper, magazine, and digital commerce/advertising for beverage alcohol products. Additional regulation of this nature could substantially reduce consumer awareness of our products in the affected markets and make the introduction of new products more challenging.

Additional regulation in the United States and other countries addressing climate change, use of water, and other environmental issues could increase our operating costs. Increasing regulation of CO2 emissions could increase the cost of energy, including fuel, required to operate our facilities or transport and distribute our products, thereby substantially increasing the production, distribution, and supply chain costs associated with our products.

***Tax increases and changes in tax rules could adversely affect our financial results.***

Our business is sensitive to changes in both direct and indirect taxes. New tax rules, accounting standards or pronouncements, and changes in interpretation of existing rules, standards, or pronouncements could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results. As a company based in the United States, we are more exposed to the impact of changes in U.S. tax legislation and regulations than most of our major competitors, especially changes that affect the effective corporate income tax rate. In August 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA") which, among other provisions, implemented a 15% minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations. We continue to evaluate the various provisions of the IRA and currently anticipate that its impact, if any, will not be material to our operating results or cash flows. Additional tax proposals sponsored by the current U.S. presidential administration could lead to U.S. tax changes, including significant increases to the U.S. corporate income tax rate and the minimum tax rate on certain earnings of foreign subsidiaries. While we are unable to predict whether any of these changes will ultimately be enacted, if these or similar proposals are enacted into law, they could negatively impact our effective tax rate and reduce net earnings.

Our business operations are also subject to numerous duties or taxes not based on income, sometimes referred to as "indirect taxes." These indirect taxes include excise taxes, sales or value-added taxes, property taxes, payroll taxes, import and export duties, and tariffs. Increases in or the imposition of new indirect taxes on our operations or products would increase the cost of our products or materials used to produce our products or, to the extent levied directly on consumers, make our products less affordable, which could negatively affect our financial results by reducing purchases of our products and encouraging consumers to switch to lower-priced or lower-taxed product categories. As governmental entities look for increased sources of revenue, they may increase taxes on beverage alcohol products.

***Our ability to market and sell our products depends heavily on societal attitudes toward drinking and governmental policies that both flow from and affect those attitudes.***

Increased social and political attention has been directed at the beverage alcohol industry. For example, there remains continued attention focused largely on public health concerns related to alcohol abuse, including drunk driving, underage drinking, and the negative health impacts of the abuse and misuse of beverage alcohol. While most people who drink alcoholic beverages do so in moderation, it is commonly known and well reported that excessive levels or inappropriate patterns of drinking can lead to increased risk of a range of health conditions and, for certain people, can result in alcohol dependence. Some academics, public health officials, and critics of the alcohol industry in the United States, Europe, and other parts of the world continue to seek governmental measures to make beverage alcohol more expensive, less available, or more difficult to advertise and promote. If future scientific research indicates more widespread serious health risks associated with alcohol consumption – particularly with moderate consumption – or if for any reason the social acceptability of beverage alcohol declines significantly, sales of our products could be adversely affected.

***Significant additional labeling or warning requirements or limitations on the availability of our products could inhibit sales of affected products.***

Various jurisdictions have adopted or may seek to adopt significant additional product labeling or warning requirements or impose limitations on the availability of our products relating to the content or perceived adverse health consequences of some of our products. Several such labeling regulations or laws require warnings on any product with substances that the jurisdiction lists as potentially associated with cancer or birth defects. Our products already raise health and safety concerns for some regulators, and heightened requirements could be imposed. For example, in 2023, the European Union progressed on initiatives under its "<u>Europe's Beating Cancer Plan</u>" to introduce mandatory health warnings on alcoholic beverages, aiming for implementation alongside ingredient/nutrient labels. Ireland led by signing regulations in May 2023 for comprehensive health warnings, including cancer and liver disease risks, by 2026, setting a potential standard for the EU. Such campaigns could result in additional governmental regulations concerning the production, marketing, labeling, or availability of our products, any of which could damage our reputation, make our brands unrecognizable, or reduce demand for our products, which could adversely affect our profitability. If additional or more severe requirements of this type are imposed on one or more of our products under current or future health, environmental, or other laws or regulations, they could inhibit sales of such products. Further, we cannot predict whether our products will become subject to increased rules and regulations, which, if enacted, could increase our costs or adversely impact sales.

***Counterfeiting or inadequate protection of our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business prospects.***

Our brand names, trademarks, and related intellectual property rights are critical assets, and our business depends on protecting them online and in the countries where we do business. We may not succeed in protecting our intellectual property rights in a given market or in challenging those who infringe our rights or imitate or counterfeit our products. Although we believe that our intellectual property rights are legally protected in the markets where we do business, the ability to register and enforce intellectual property rights varies from country to country. In some countries, for example, it may be more difficult to successfully stop counterfeiting or look-alike products, either because the law is inadequate or, even though satisfactory legal options may exist, it may be difficult to obtain and enforce sanctions against counterfeiters. We may not be able to register our trademarks in every country where we want to sell a particular product, and we may not obtain favorable decisions by courts or trademark offices.

***Litigation and legal disputes could expose our business to financial and reputational risk.***

Major private or governmental litigation challenging the production, marketing, promotion, distribution, or sale of beverage alcohol or specific brands could affect our ability to sell our products. Because litigation and other legal proceedings can be costly to defend, even actions that are ultimately decided in our favor could have a negative impact on our business reputation or financial results. Lawsuits have been brought against beverage alcohol companies alleging problems related to alcohol abuse, negative health consequences from drinking, problems from alleged marketing or sales practices, and underage drinking. While these lawsuits have been largely unsuccessful in the past, others may succeed in the future. We could also experience employment-related or cybersecurity-related class actions, environmental claims, commercial disputes, product liability actions stemming from a beverage or container production defect, a whistleblower suit, or other major litigation that could adversely affect our business results, particularly if there is negative publicity.

As discussed throughout these risk factors, governmental actions around the world are a continuing compliance risk for global companies such as ours. In addition, as a U.S. public company, we are exposed to the risk of securities-related class action suits, particularly following a precipitous drop in the share price of our stock. Adverse developments in major lawsuits concerning these or other matters could result in management distraction and have a material adverse effect on our business.

***Unfavorable economic conditions could negatively affect our operations and results.***

Unfavorable national or regional economic conditions may be triggered by numerous developments beyond our control, including geopolitical events, health crises, and other events that trigger economic volatility on a global or regional basis. Those types of unfavorable economic conditions could adversely affect our business and financial results. In particular, a significant deterioration in economic conditions, including economic slowdowns or recessions, increased unemployment levels, inflationary pressures, or disruptions to credit and capital markets could lead to decreased consumer confidence and consumer spending more generally, thus reducing consumer demand for our products. For example, since 2021, the United States has experienced a rapid increase in inflation levels. Such heightened inflationary levels may negatively impact consumer disposable income and discretionary spending and, in turn, reduce consumer demand for our premium products and increase our costs. Unfavorable economic conditions could also cause governments to increase taxes on beverage alcohol to attempt to raise revenue, reducing consumers' willingness to make discretionary purchases of beverage alcohol products or pay for premium brands such as ours.

Unfavorable economic conditions could also adversely affect our suppliers, distributors, customers, and retailers, who in turn could experience cash flow challenges, more costly or unavailable financing, credit defaults, and other financial hardships. Such financial hardships could lead to distributor or retailer destocking, disruption in raw material supply, increase in bad debt expense, or increased levels of unsecured credit that we may need to provide to customers. Other potential negative consequences to our business from unfavorable economic conditions include higher interest rates, an increase in the rate of inflation, deflation, exchange rate fluctuations, credit or capital market instability, or lower returns on pension assets or lower discount rates for pension obligations (possibly requiring higher contributions to our pension plans).

***Our success depends in part on our ability to identify, recruit and retain skilled management and technical personnel. If we fail to recruit and retain suitable candidates or if our relationship with our employees changes or deteriorates, there could be a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition***

We are highly dependent upon our personnel, including Steve Laker, our Chief Executive Officer. The loss of Mr. Laker's services could impede the achievement of our business objectives. We have not obtained, do not own, nor are we the beneficiary of, key-person life insurance. Furthermore, our future success depends upon our continuing ability to identify, attract, hire and retain highly qualified personnel, including skilled management and scientific personnel, all of whom are in high demand and are often subject to competing offers. Competition for qualified personnel in the our industry is intense, and we may not be able to hire or retain a sufficient number of qualified personnel to meet our requirements, or be able to do so at salary, benefit and other compensation costs that are acceptable to us. A loss of a substantial number of key or qualified employees, or an inability to attract, retain and motivate additional highly skilled employees required for expansion of our business, could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

***We have requirements for and there is an uncertainty of access to additional capital.***

We will continue to incur development costs to further develop our business plan. Based on our current operating plans, we believe we need to make additional acquisitions of technologies, or other assets to generate enough cashflow to carry our overhead costs, and plan to operate any subsequent business operations from working capital, equity subscriptions and shareholders' loans. Ultimately, our ability to continue our business operations depends in part on our ability to obtain financing through debt financing, equity financing, or commence operations and generate revenues or some combination of these or other means. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such financing.

***We have negative cash flow from operations and depend on equity financing and shareholder loans for our operations.***

Our current operating funds are less than necessary to complete our intended plan of operations. We will need additional funds. Our failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement or further of any subsequent operations which would have a material adverse effect on our business. As of December 31, 2025, we had cash of $211,948. We do not expect that our existing cash and cash from revenue will be sufficient to fund our current operations through at least 12 months from the date of this annual report. We will need to raise additional funds in the future to fund our working capital needs and to fund further expansion of our business. We may require additional equity or debt financings, collaborative arrangements with corporate partners or funds from other sources for these purposes. No assurance can be given that necessary funds will be available for us to finance our development on acceptable terms, if at all. Furthermore, such additional financings may involve substantial dilution of our stockholders or may require that we relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. In addition, we may experience operational difficulties and delays due to working capital restrictions. If adequate funds are not available from operations or additional sources of financing, we may have to delay or scale back our growth plans.

***We expect to incur losses in the future.***

We recently acquired two businesses that generate revenue. We expect that we may incur operating losses in future periods while integrating these businesses and may incur additional costs related to the integration. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues at the same level of those businesses in the future. Failure to generate profitability operations will cause us to go out of business.

***Our operating results may prove unpredictable.***

Our operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors, many of which we have no control over. Factors that may cause our operating results to fluctuate significantly include: our ability to generate enough working capital from future equity sales; the level of commercial acceptance by the public of any services/products we may develop; fluctuations in the demands of any products; the amount and timing operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of subsequent business, operations, infrastructure and general economic conditions. If realized, any of these factors could have a material effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

***Our common stock is or may become subject to the "penny stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities is limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.***

Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (a) that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and (b) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must: (a) obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person and (b) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form: (a) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (b) confirms that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. If our common stock is or becomes subject to the "penny stock" rules, it may be more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our common stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker or dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

***The Company's management expects to issue additional shares.***

The Company has 300,000,000 authorized common shares, of which, as of the date of this filing, 235,610,043 are currently issued and outstanding and 10,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), of which no shares are issued and outstanding. The Company also has

***We do not anticipate paying dividends.***

We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, but plan rather to retain earnings, if any for the operation, growth and expansion of our subsequent business. Because we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future which may lower expected returns for investors, and as such our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their investment unless they sell their shares of common stock.

**Risks Related to Investing in Our Company**

***We are an early-stage company and lack an operating history***.

Our limited operating history makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our products or prospective operations and business prospects. We are subject to all the risks inherent in business development, financing, unexpected expenditures, and complications and delays that often occur in a new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in us in light of the uncertainties encountered by developing companies in a competitive environment. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will ultimately be able to attain profitability.

***We expect to incur losses in the future.***

Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will be incurring expenses and not generating revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to go out of business.

***Our operating results may prove unpredictable.***

Our operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors, many of which we have no control over. Factors that may cause our operating results to fluctuate significantly include: our ability to generate enough working capital from future equity sales; the level of commercial acceptance by the public of our services/products; fluctuations in the demands of products; the amount and timing operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our subsequent business, operations, infrastructure and general economic conditions. If realized, any of these factors could have a material effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

**ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS**

Not applicable to a "smaller reporting company" as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K.

**ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY**

**Risk Management and Strategy**

As a smaller reporting company, we currently do not have formalized cybersecurity measures, a dedicated cybersecurity team or specific protocols in place to manage cybersecurity risks. Our approach to cybersecurity is in the developmental stage, and we have only begun to conduct comprehensive risk assessments, establish an incident response plan, and engage with external cybersecurity consultants for assessments or services. As of the date of this report, we have adopted an incident response plan which governs our assessment and response upon the occurrence of a material cybersecurity incident, including the process for informing senior management and our Board of Directors. Our Chief Executive Officer has been designated as the lead in implementing our incident response plan.

Given our current stage of cybersecurity development, we have not experienced any significant cybersecurity incidents to date. However, we recognize that the absence of a formalized cybersecurity framework may leave us vulnerable to cyberattacks, data breaches and other cybersecurity incidents. Such events could potentially lead to unauthorized access to, or disclosure of, sensitive information, disrupt our business operations, result in regulatory fines or litigation costs and negatively impact our reputation among customers and partners.

We are in the process of evaluating our cybersecurity needs and developing appropriate measures to enhance our cybersecurity posture. This includes considering the engagement of external cybersecurity experts to advise on best practices, conducting vulnerability assessments and developing an incident response strategy. Our goal is to establish a cybersecurity framework that is commensurate with our size, complexity and the nature of our operations, thereby reducing our exposure to cybersecurity risks.

In addition, our board of directors will oversee any cybersecurity risk management framework and a dedicated committee of our board of directors will review and approve any cybersecurity policies, strategies and risk management practices.

Despite our efforts to improve our cybersecurity measures, there can be no assurance that our initiatives will fully mitigate the risks posed by cyber threats. The landscape of cybersecurity risks is constantly evolving, and we will continue to assess and update our cybersecurity measures in response to emerging threats.

**Governance**

***Board of Directors***

The audit committee of the Company's board of directors, with the input of management, oversees the Company's internal controls, including internal controls designed to assess, identify, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats. The audit committee is informed of material risks, when applicable, from cybersecurity threats by the Company's Chief Executive Officer. Updates on cybersecurity matters, including material risks and threats, are provided to the Company's audit committee, and the audit committee provides updates to the Company's board of directors at regular board meetings.

***Management***

Under the oversight of the audit committee of the Company's board of directors, the Company's Chief Executive Officer is primarily responsible for the assessment and management of material cybersecurity risks and establishing and maintaining adequate and effective internal controls covering cybersecurity matters.

The audit committee of the Company's board of directors, with the assistance of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for overseeing the establishment and effectiveness of controls and other procedures, including controls and procedures related to the public disclosure of material cybersecurity matters.

As of the date of this report, other than the foregoing, the Company is not aware of any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company, including its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition and that are required to be reported in this report. For further discussion of the risks associated with cybersecurity incidents, see the cybersecurity risk factors in Item 1A. Risk Factors in this report.

**ITEM 2. PROPERTIES**

The Company does not own any real estate or other properties. The Company maintains an operating lease for its office space and operating facility for the Two Trees business in Fletcher, North Carolina, which has a remaining term of 2 months as of December 31, 2025, which the Company renewed in January 2026 through February 28, 2029. The Company also maintains an operating lease for its RF Specialties facility in Mills River, North Carolina, with a remaining term of 4.5 years. We believe these facilities to be sufficient to meet our needs for the foreseeable future and that any additional space we may require will be available on commercially reasonable terms.

**ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there are no material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business, to which we are a party, or of which our property is the subject. In addition, none of our officers, directors, affiliates or 5% stockholders (or any associates thereof) is a party adverse to us, or has a material interest adverse to us, in any material proceeding.

**Holders of Common Stock**

As of March 23, 2026, there were approximately 220 record holders of our common stock. The number of record holders does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of banks, brokers, nominees or other fiduciaries.

**Dividend Policy**

We have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock since our inception. We currently intend to reinvest all cash resources to finance the development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on the financial condition, earnings, legal requirements, restrictions in its debt agreements and any other factors that our board of directors deems relevant. In addition, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends depends on our receipt of cash dividends from our operating subsidiaries, which may further restrict our ability to pay dividends as a result of the laws of their respective jurisdictions of organization, agreements of our subsidiaries or covenants under future indebtedness that we or our subsidiaries may incur.

**Clawback Policy**

On January 1, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Compensation Recovery Policy (the "Policy"). The Policy is intended to further the Company's pay-for-performance philosophy and to comply with applicable law by providing for the reasonably prompt recovery of certain incentive-based compensation received by executive officers in the event of an accounting restatement. The Policy is intended to comply with, and will be interpreted in a manner consistent with, Section 10D of the Exchange Act, with Exchange Act Rule 10D-1 and with the Nasdaq listing standards.

Pursuant to the Policy, if the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance by the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period (an "Accounting Restatement"), then the Compensation Committee must determine the Excess Compensation (as hereinafter defined), if any, that must be recovered. The Company's obligation to recover Excess Compensation is not dependent on if or when the restated financial statements are filed. The Company must recover Excess Compensation reasonably promptly and executive officers are required to repay Excess Compensation to the Company, subject to the terms of the Policy.

The Policy applies to certain incentive-based compensation that is received on or after January 1, 2024 during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the Accounting Restatement determination date, as provided in the Policy (the "Covered Period") while the Company has a class of securities listed on a national securities exchange. The incentive-based compensation is considered "Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation" if the incentive-based compensation is received by a person after such person became an executive officer and the person served as an executive officer at any time during the performance period to which the incentive-based compensation applies. The "Excess Compensation" that is subject to recovery under the Policy is the amount of Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation that exceeds the amount of Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation that otherwise would have been received had such Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation been determined based on the restated amounts (this is referred to in the listing standards as "erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation").

**Transfer Agent**

The Transfer Agent for shares of the Company's securities is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, located at 1 State Street 30<sup>th</sup> Floor, New York, NY 10004-1571.

**Overview**

We are a technology company pioneering the development of innovate energy wave solutions for industrial and other commercial enterprises. Our expertise in radio wave technologies and microwave technologies has led to multiple breakthroughs with applications both industrial and commercial. Our patented energy wave technology introduces a revolutionary approach to industrial processes by specific molecular targeting, which can be applied at precise and multiple locations in a system in ways that conventional single point heat sources cannot, resulting in improved efficiency, higher quality, and reduced processing time.

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Two Trees Beverage Company, utilizes the SRAS, validating the use of this patented energy wave technology within the premium craft spirits industry. Our proprietary and patented molecular targeting system swiftly and sustainably transforms distillate to maturity, delivering traditional flavors in a fraction of the time with greatly reduced environmental impact and cost. Precision engineered to match traditional aging flavors and aromas, it has been used to produce over 50 SKUs and many award-winning products.

**Recent Developments**

Whiskey-as-a-Service

Among our accomplishments to start the year, we successfully launched our "Whiskey-as-a-Service" ("WaaS") business model, offering use of the SRAS through a flexible technology license structure to enable customers to access this transformative technology with minimal upfront investment, while securing long-term, predictable revenue streams for the Company. We also offer on-site aging of bulk spirits.

We have signed new contracts with two companies for the construction and deployment of our proprietary SRAS and see excellent potential for multiple additional SRAS deployments by both customers within the next twelve months as well as by other third parties.

The first of these units is anticipated to be installed on site at one of the largest distilleries in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2026, with the second unit deployed approximately three months thereafter. The second contract is with a leading U.S. wholesaler and broker of bulk spirits for one SRAS unit at their facility, which is estimated to be installed in the third quarter of 2026.

Under both contracts, RFS will manufacture and assemble the SRAS units and provide ongoing machine servicing and maintenance in addition to the recurring monthly license payments from the customers for use of the SRAS units.

These contracts validate the economic and sustainability benefits of our SRAS units and provide us with attractive recurring revenue streams through licensing agreements and ancillary fees for ongoing machine servicing and maintenance.

Building on the momentum of our first two WaaS contracts, we signed a separate new agreement with an international spirits investment fund (the "Fund") providing the Fund with limited exclusivity for the deployment of our SRAS units in three countries outside of the United States. To retain exclusivity, the Fund is required to deploy at least one SRAS unit annually in each of the three countries.

In 2025, we began aging tanker loads of distillate at our facility for one of our SRAS customers to fill immediate demand for aged spirits. In early 2026, we completed installation of a higher capacity SRAS at our Two Trees facility in order to increase existing production across our aging services and brand production.

Appointment of Chief Financial Officer

On March 10, 2025, we appointed David Stephens as our Chief Financial Officer, effective March 1, 2025. We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Stephens for a term of three years with the following compensation terms:

---

| |
|:---|
| A base salary of $120,000 in 2025; $150,000 in 2026; and $175,000 in 2027; |
| For the first two years of the term, a performance-based bonus of 15% of his then current base salary for any quarter that gross revenues increased a minimum of 25% from its prior year gross revenue for that corresponding quarter; |
| After the first two years of the term, an annual performance-based bonus based on prior year gross revenues, in a schedule as set forth in his employment agreement. |

Asset Purchase Agreement

On January 27, 2025, Two Trees (the "Buyer") and Brown Water Bourbon Xchange, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (the "Seller") (collectively the "Parties") entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement"). According to the terms of the Agreement, the Seller sold to the Buyer 680 barrels of whiskey in exchange for 5,000,000 restricted shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Shares"). On the same day, the Buyer and Seller closed the transaction.

Two Trees Beverage Company – New *Uplifting Spirits* Product Line

In July 2025, our award-winning subsidiary, Two Trees Beverage Company, launched *Uplifting Spirits*, a new product line focused on supporting community and charitable causes, debuting with *Land of the Sky*, a limited-edition straight bourbon whiskey aiding Hurricane Helene relief efforts. We are proud of this initiative and pleased to donate ten percent of *Land of the Sky* sales to relief efforts, including aiding Western North Carolina, where many of our teammates call home.

RF Specialties, LLC – Molecular Sawdust Drying Machine Update

We completed testing and are currently deploying our first Molecular Sawdust Drying System ("MSDS") at a large lumber mill, which utilizes a proprietary molecular energy wave technology to adjust the moisture content of sawdust for production of wood pellets, an alternative green energy source.

The system offers scalable, flexible solutions for any tonnage of sawdust, catering to diverse pellet manufacturing needs. It utilizes patented technology to adjust moisture content as required, optimizing it to precise specifications. The system features precision automation for controlling temperature and drying parameters, ensuring consistent high-quality output. This adaptable system enhances safety and productivity, achieving uniform results with minimal downtime. The Company is also targeting applications of this process in engineered wood products, adhesives, wood forest products and food and beverages.

<u>Revenue.</u> Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $2,214,542 compared to $2,364,093 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Revenue of $1,350,114 in 2025 is attributable to the Two Trees business, compared to $1,324,823 in 2024, and $864,428 of revenue in 2025 attributable to product and service income from RFS, compared to $1,039,270 in 2024. The $25,291 increase revenue in the Two Trees business was primarily attributable to increased WaaS revenue which contributed $222,300 of revenue during the current year, which was partially offset by a decline in brand sales of approximately $150,000 and a decrease in bulk sales of $70,000.

In February 2025, we executed contracts with two customers related to the lease of an aggregate of three SRAS that are expected to begin producing revenue to the Company in the second half of 2026. We began building the machines for these customers in early 2025, and we expect to drive significant growth in revenue and gross profit in our Two Trees Distilling business from this new revenue stream going forward.

The $174,842 decrease in revenue of our RFS business is primarily due to significant non-recurring service revenue from RF Specialties during the prior year ended, December 31, 2024, totaling $520,000, partially offset by revenue from milestones reached on the development and installation of the MSDS in the year ended December 31, 2025.

We expect our RFS business to complete full installation of the MSDS in the first half of 2026, and to expand the number of systems installed at lumber mills across the southeast United States throughout 2026.

<u>Cost of Sales.</u> Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $2,564,857 compared to $1,490,064 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Cost of sales for the Company's Two Trees Distilling operations was $1,331,901 in 2025 compared to $917,458 in 2024, with the increase driven an inventory impairment of $140,067, cost of goods sold from sale of barrels of approximately $168,000, increased input costs for our brand products, and new costs associated with our WaaS revenue. The Company's RF Specialties business incurred costs of sales of $1,232,956 in 2025 as compared to $572,606 in 2024, due to the costs associated with the MSDS contract ongoing since November 2024. Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2024 benefitted significantly from one-time service revenue of $520,000 in the RF Specialties business.

<u>Operating Expenses</u>. The Company reported operating expenses of $3,386,049 consisting primarily of legal, accounting, payroll, and general business-related expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $2,376,693 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $1,067,256 increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to increased salaries and wages from a full year of officer contracts compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. Selling, general and administrative expenses was $2,302,274 and $1,853,335 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and included legal, accounting and audit fees related to our public company reporting obligations, including stock-based compensation of $639,885 and $71,938, respectively due to new equity awards to employees and consultants in the current year. Operating expenses included salary and wages expense of $763,929 and $175,827 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Operating expenses included depreciation and amortization expense of $319,846 and $289,631 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and a loss of $57,900 on disposal of assets to a related party for the year ended December 31, 2024.

<u>Total Other Income/Expense</u>. Total other expense was $61,626 for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the total other expense of $118,453 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a loss on note receivable impairment in the year ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by increased interest expense in the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

We believe that if we do not raise additional capital over the next 12 months following the filing of this annual report, we may be required to suspend or cease the implementation of our business plans.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, our cash balance was $211,948 and $11,159, respectively. We anticipate that our current cash and cash generated from financing activities will be insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements for the next 12 months. To date, the Company has incurred operating losses since inception of $6,158,495. At December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,255,017. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company has raised an additional $450,000 in proceeds from the sale of common stock.

The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. Management has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

We expect to incur marketing, professional, and administrative expenses as well as expenses associated with maintaining our filings with the Commission. We will require additional funds during this time and will seek to raise the necessary additional capital. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our business development activities, which could harm our business plans, financial condition and operating results. Additional funding may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. The Company intends to continue to fund its business by way of equity or debt financing and advances from related parties. Any inability to raise capital as needed would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***Cash Flows***

***Cash Used in Operating Activities.*** Net cash used in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, was $1,574,124 and $781,970. The increase was attributable to an increase in net loss compared to the prior year as a result of increased operating expenses associated with the new businesses as described above.

***Cash Used in Investing Activities.*** Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and net cash provided by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $872,247 and $6,990, respectively, related to purchases of equipment in developing larger in house SRAS unit to expand production capacity and the SRAS units for customers.

 ****

***Cash Provided by Financing Activities.*** Net cash provided by financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, was $2,647,160 and $685,008. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 consisted of $2,939,401 in proceeds from the sale of common stock, $150,000 in proceeds from related party notes payable, offset by repayments of notes payable to related parties and third parties of $105,500 and $336,741, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 consisted of $745,000 in proceeds from the sale of common stock, $155,500 in proceeds from related party notes payable, offset by repayments of notes payable to related parties and third parties of $32,500 and $182,982 respectively and repayments of preferred stock of $10.

**Off Balance Sheet Arrangements**

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements currently contemplated by management or in place that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the business, financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, result of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures and/or capital resources.

**Recent Accounting Standards**

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, *Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures*, which amends the existing segment reporting guidance (ASC Topic 280) to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition, the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The amendments in this update were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.

The Company adopted this standard on a retrospective basis within our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2025, which resulted in additional disclosures in our segment financial information footnote, primarily related to significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within our reported measure of segment profit or loss. Refer to note 14 for these additional disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE)*, requiring additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company has implemented all new accounting standards that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting standards that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, forecasted events, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and judgments may vary under different assumptions or conditions. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. Our management believes the accounting policies below are critical in the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management's most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments.

**Revenue Recognition** - Net sales from Two Trees include liquor and related products, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. Sales from RF Specialties, LLC will include product and services related to sustainable Radio Frequency applications to a wide range of industries including structural engineering, food & beverage, and manufacturing. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company recognizes sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee's shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee's shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return. The Company also performs aging services for certain customers, with revenue recognized upon completion of the aged product. For service revenue within the Company's radio frequency applications, the Company recognizes revenue as the services are provided to the customer. The Company's contracts typically have a single performance obligation, and do not contain a significant financing component.

The Company recognizes deferred revenue for performance obligations not yet satisfied, primarily related to liquor sales not yet shipped and deposits received related to its aging system contracts.

**Goodwill** - Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to annual impairment testing on or between annual tests if an event or change in circumstance occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. In testing for goodwill impairment, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it can conclude the assessment. If the Company concludes otherwise, the Company is required to perform a quantitative analysis to determine the amount of impairment. A quantitative analysis is performed at the reporting unit level by comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its respective carrying value to determine the amount of impairment, if any. The Company has determined that it has two reporting units. During the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, no impairment expense was recognized.

**Impairment of Long-Lived Assets** - Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair market value of the assets. During the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, no impairment expense was recognized.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of MDwerks, Inc.

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MDwerks, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Going Concern**

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company suffered a net loss from operations and has an accumulated deficit, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are discussed in Note 2. 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 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 the significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matter**

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audits of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated, or required to be communicated, to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the 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 matter below, providing separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

 

*Going Concern*

Due to the net loss for the year, the Company evaluated the need for a going concern.

Auditing management's evaluation of a going concern can be a significant judgement given the fact that the Company uses management estimates on future revenues and expenses which are not able to be substantiated.

As discussed in Note 2, the Company suffered a net loss from operations and has an accumulated deficit for the year ended December 31, 2025.

To evaluate the appropriateness of the going concern, we examined and evaluated the financial information along with management's plans to mitigate the going concern and management's disclosure on going concern.

**MDwerks, Inc.**

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

**NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS**

MDwerks, Inc. (collectively "MDWerks" the "Company," "we," "us," "our," "it," or "MDWK"), a Delaware corporation, is a technology company pioneering the development of innovative energy wave solutions for industrial and other commercial enterprises. Our expertise in radio wave technologies and microwave technologies has led to multiple breakthroughs with applications both industrial and commercial. Our patented energy wave technology introduces a revolutionary approach to industrial processes by specific molecular targeting, which can be applied at precise and multiple locations in a system in ways that conventional single point heat sources cannot, resulting in improved efficiency, higher quality, and reduced processing time. In December 2023, we completed the acquisition of RF Specialties, LLC ("RFS") and Two Trees Beverage Co. and its subsidiaries ("Two Trees").

Two Trees produces a variety of aged alcoholic beverages using an innovative rapid-aging system. This scalable technology results in all-natural, high-quality products, efficiently produced, with a reduced environmental impact. Our products are nearly indistinguishable from those that are traditionally aged. Two Trees created a proprietary process that mirrors and accelerates the natural aging process that occurs when alcohol is aged in wooden barrels over time. The true art of our craft spirits lives within the balance between the grain selection, local water, and the full-bodied flavors from our toasted wood chip varieties. Our wood chips are selected to pair with specific grains and toasted to just the right char, bringing rich flavor profiles to life with a hint of smoke.

RFS is an innovative company pushing the boundaries of sustainable Radio Frequency applications. For over 14 years, RF Specialties has addressed companies' most pressing challenges by implementing automated Radio Frequency Technology in a sustainable way and reducing energy costs and increasing speed to market when compared to traditional methods. By bringing Radio Frequency applications to market RFS has successfully elevated a wide range of industries including structural engineering, food & beverage, and manufacturing.

**NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Basis of Presentation -** The financial statements present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Two Trees Beverage Company, Prost Beverage Co, Radio Aged Beer LLC, RF Kettle Company LLC, Two Trees Distilling Company, RAS LLC, (collectively referred to as "Two Trees") and RF Specialties, LLC. All intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents** - The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents. The Company had $211,948 cash equivalents at December 31, 2025 and $11,159 cash at December 31, 2024.

**Use of Estimates and Assumptions -** The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results can, and in many cases will, differ from those estimates.

**Accounts Receivable and the Allowances for Credit losses** - Accounts receivable are recorded in the period when the right to receive payment or other consideration becomes unconditional. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not earn interest. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses based upon the best estimate of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based upon individual accounts when information indicates the customers may have an inability to meet their financial obligations, as well as historical collection and write-off experience. The Company had an accounts receivable balance of $43,489 net of $10,627 allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2025. The Company had an accounts receivable balance of $109,142 net of $26,710 allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2024. The Company recognized credit losses of $8,056 and $39,176 during the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had four customers that accounted for 35%, 23%, 14%, and 14% of total accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had two customers that accounted for 50% and 10% of total accounts receivable.

**Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets -** Prepaid expenses primarily consist of prepaid purchases, insurance, income tax refund receivable, and various other expenses. These amounts are recognized as an expense in the period the related service or benefit is received.

**Inventory** - Inventories primarily consist of bulk and bottled liquor and raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using an average costing methodology, which approximates cost under the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. A portion of the Company's finished goods inventory is held in warehouses located in several states that maintain control over the alcohol beverage distribution process until it is sold into the retail distribution channel within those states. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company's estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis of accounting for the related inventory. During the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized an impairment of $140,067 and $0, respectively, related to certain barrel inventory with a market price below the Company's carrying value.

**Property and Equipment -** Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Furniture and fixture assets are depreciated over five years, vehicles are depreciated over five years, and computer and equipment are depreciated over three years. Expenditures for renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of or improve existing property or equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Category** | **Estimated Useful Lives** |
| Machinery and equipment | 3-7 years |
| Vehicles | 5 years |
| Furniture & Fixtures | 5 years |
| Computers | 3 years |

---

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter period of their estimated useful life or term of the lease.

**Intangible Assets** - Intangible assets, consisting of trade names, developed technology, and customer relationships, are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350 "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other". Intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of three to fifteen years.

**Goodwill** - Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to annual impairment testing on or between annual tests if an event or change in circumstance occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. In testing for goodwill impairment, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it can conclude the assessment. If the Company concludes otherwise, the Company is required to perform a quantitative analysis to determine the amount of impairment. A quantitative analysis is performed at the reporting unit level by comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its respective carrying value to determine the amount of impairment, if any. The Company has determined that it has two reporting units. During the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, no impairment expense was recognized.

**Impairment of Long-Lived Assets** - Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair market value of the assets. During the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, no impairment expense was recognized.

**Leases** - Management determines if an arrangement is a lease at the inception of the agreement. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and operating lease liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease agreement, when available, or a discount rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

**Revenue Recognition** - Net sales from Two Trees include liquor and related products, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. Sales from RF Specialties, LLC will include product and services related to sustainable Radio Frequency applications to a wide range of industries including structural engineering, food & beverage, and manufacturing. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company recognizes sales when liquor products are shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, which include sales to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee's shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee's shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return. The Company also performs aging services for certain customers, with revenue recognized upon completion of the aged product. For service revenue within the Company's radio frequency applications, the Company recognizes revenue as the services are provided to the customer. The Company's contracts typically have a single performance obligation, and do not contain a significant financing component.

The Company recognizes deferred revenue for performance obligations not yet satisfied, primarily related to liquor sales not yet shipped. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $457,158 in unsatisfied performance obligations that it expects to satisfy over the next 12 months, with $368,754 related to its liquor business and $88,425 related to RFS. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $226,066 in unsatisfied performance obligations.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, two of the Company's customer accounted for 26% and 10% of total revenue, with the customers being in the RF Specialties business and Two Trees Distilling, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company has one customer in its RFS business who accounted for 25% of total revenue.

**Income Taxes** - The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of US GAAP in accounting for income taxes. The Company uses the asset and liability approach to financial reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts and are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company also complies with US GAAP in accounting for uncertain tax positions. A tax benefit from an uncertain position may be recognized only if it is "more likely than not" that the position is sustainable based on its technical merits. Based on its analysis, the Company has determined that it has not incurred any liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. However, the Company's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations, and interpretations thereof. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and other expenses, respectively. No interest expense or penalties have been recognized as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**Loss Per Share** -Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Basic (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. In the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no options, warrants or derivative securities outstanding.

**Fair value of financial instruments** - The Company measures its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities, as well as makes related disclosures, in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), which provides guidance with respect to valuation techniques to be utilized in the determination of fair value of assets and liabilities. Approaches include, (i) the market approach (comparable market prices), (ii) the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and (iii) the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The carrying values of the Company's accounts payable and accrued liabilities, advances payable, and convertible notes payable, approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company has no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's goodwill and intangible assets were valued using level 3 inputs at the time of acquisition.

**Research and Development Expenses** - The Company records research and development expenses in the period in which they are incurred as a component of product development expenses.

**Stock-Based Compensation** - The Company measures stock-based compensation at the estimated fair value on the grant date and recognizes the amortization of stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, or when it is probable criteria will be achieved for performance-based awards. Fair value is determined based on assumptions related to the fair value of the Company common stock, stock volatility and risk-free rate of return. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures when realized.

**Excise Taxes** - The Company is responsible for compliance with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau ("TTB") regulations, which includes making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual states also impose excise taxes on alcoholic beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its excise tax expense based upon units produced and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws. Excise taxes totaled $32,423 and $32,127 for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively, included in general and administrative expenses.

**Segment Reporting** - In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("<u>FASB</u>") issued ASU 2023-07, *Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures*, which amends the existing segment reporting guidance (ASC Topic 280) to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition, the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources.

**Reclassifications** – Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

**Going Concern** - These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $3,797,990 and an accumulated deficit of $6,158,495 as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Although management believes that it will be able to successfully execute its business strategy, which includes third party financing and the raising of capital to meet the Company's future liquidity needs, there can be no assurances in this regard. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

**Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements** - From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the effect of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In November 202, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE)*, requiring additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

**NOTE 3 - INVENTORY**

Inventories primarily consist of bulk and bottled liquor and raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using an average costing methodology, which approximates cost under the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. A portion of the Company's finished goods inventory is held in warehouses located in several states that maintain control over the alcohol beverage distribution process until it is sold into the retail distribution channel within those states. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company's estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis of accounting for the related inventory.

Inventories consisted of the following as of December 31:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
| Raw materials and packaging | $832285 | $38189 |
| Finished goods | 124295 | 198674 |
| Inventory allowance | (135624) | - |
| Total inventories | $820956 | $236863 |

**NOTE 10 – LEASES**

The Company maintains an operating lease for its office space and operating facility. The lease has a remaining term of 80 months. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement to determine the present value of the lease payments. The Company used a weighted average incremental borrowing rate of 8.4% Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less ("short-term leases") are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of December 31, 2025, the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $628,125 and $661,109, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $915,803 and $961,490, respectively.

In January 2026, the Company renewed its lease for its Two Trees Distilling facility for an additional three years through February 2029.

**NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES**

For the period from inception through December 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $5,209,000 of federal net operating losses. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the net operating loss carry forwards can be carried forward indefinitely, however the deductions are limited to 80% of taxable income.

The effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 consisted of the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |
| Federal statutory income tax rate | 21% | 21% |
| Change in valuation allowance | (21)% | (21)% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net effective income tax rate | - | - |

---

The components of the Company's deferred tax asset are as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | December 31, | December 31, |
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
| Deferred tax assets: |  |  |
| Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance | $1094000 | $481000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Valuation allowance | (1094000) | (481000) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net deferred tax assets | $- | $- |

---

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company's history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In accordance with FASB ASC 740, the Company has evaluated its tax positions and determined there are no uncertain tax positions.

**NOTE 12 – SEGMENT REPORTING**

The Company's operations are managed and reported in two operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: (1) RF Specialties and (2) Two Trees Distilling. These segments are organized principally by product and service category. The Company's reportable segments are determined based on (1) financial information reviewed by the CODM, (2) operational structure of the Company which is designed and managed to share resources across the entire suite of products offered by the business, and (3) the basis upon which the CODM makes resource allocation decisions. The CODM for both segments is the Director, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The CODM utilizes the segment operating income (loss) to assess profitability and performance of actual results compared to forecasts.

**ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.**

There have been no reportable events pursuant to Item 304(b) of Regulation S-K in connection with a change in our accountants.

**ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In connection with this annual report, as required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, we have carried out an evaluation, as of December 31, 2025, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company's disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our company's management, including our company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, our company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of December 31, 2025 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the existence of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting due to inadequate segregation of duties within account processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT and financial reporting and record keeping.

*Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting*

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in SEC guidance on conducting such assessments as of the end of the period covered by this report. Management conducted the assessment based on certain criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. As of December 31, 2025, our controls over our financial reporting were not effective due to the existence of material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company's management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; (4) lack of formalized policy and procedures around related party transactions; and (5) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified in connection with the audit of our financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and communicated the matters to our management.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an effect on the Company's financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

The Company's management concluded that in light of the errors mentioned above, a material weakness existed in the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, and the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2025.

We are committed to improving our financial organization. The Company intends to establish an audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. As part of this commitment, we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to the Company. We will also prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel turn over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues the company may encounter in the future.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to SEC rules that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

There were no changes that have affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

**ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION**

*Adoption or Termination of Trading Arrangements by Directors or Officers*

 

During the Company's quarterly period ended December 31, 2025, no director or officer (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 16a-1(f)) of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" as defined in Regulation S-K Item 408.

**Family Relationships**

None.

**Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings**

To our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of our directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has:

● Been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);

● Had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;

● Been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, his involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, activities, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity;

● Been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;

● Been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

Except as set forth in our discussion below in "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions," none of our directors or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

**Committees of the Board of Directors**

We do not have a standing nominating, compensation or audit committee. Rather, our full Board of Directors performs the functions of these committees. We do not believe it is necessary for our Board of Directors to appoint such committees because the volume of matters that come before our Board of Directors for consideration permits the directors to give sufficient time and attention to such matters to be involved in all decision making. Additionally, because our common stock is not presently listed for trading or quotation on a national securities exchange, we are not required to have such committees.

**Director Independence**

Our Board currently consists of five members. Three of our current Board members and director nominees are "independent" as determined under listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq").

**Board Qualifications**

We believe that each of the members of our board of directors has the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that make him or her suitable to serve as our director, in light of our highly regulated magnesium business and the complex nature of our operations. See above under the heading Item 10. "Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance" for a description of the education and experience of each director.

**Code of Ethics**

We have not yet adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting.

**Clawback Policy**

On January 1, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Compensation Recovery Policy (the "Policy"). The Policy is intended to further the Company's pay-for-performance philosophy and to comply with applicable law by providing for the reasonably prompt recovery of certain incentive-based compensation received by executive officers in the event of an accounting restatement. The Policy is intended to comply with, and will be interpreted in a manner consistent with, Section 10D of the Exchange Act, with Exchange Act Rule 10D-1 and with the Nasdaq listing standards.

Pursuant to the Policy, if the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance by the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period (an "Accounting Restatement"), then the Compensation Committee must determine the Excess Compensation (as hereinafter defined), if any, that must be recovered. The Company's obligation to recover Excess Compensation is not dependent on if or when the restated financial statements are filed. The Company must recover Excess Compensation reasonably promptly and executive officers are required to repay Excess Compensation to the Company, subject to the terms of the Policy.

The Policy applies to certain incentive-based compensation that is received on or after January 1, 2024 during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the Accounting Restatement determination date, as provided in the Policy (the "Covered Period") while the Company has a class of securities listed on a national securities exchange. The incentive-based compensation is considered "Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation" if the incentive-based compensation is received by a person after such person became an executive officer and the person served as an executive officer at any time during the performance period to which the incentive-based compensation applies. The "Excess Compensation" that is subject to recovery under the Policy is the amount of Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation that exceeds the amount of Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation that otherwise would have been received had such Clawback Eligible Incentive-Based Compensation been determined based on the restated amounts (this is referred to in the listing standards as "erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation").

**Board Oversight of Risk Management**

The Board of Directors considers oversight of the Company's risk management efforts, including enterprise risk management, to be a responsibility of the entire Board. Management regularly updates the full Board on major Company initiatives, strategies, and related risks. At least annually, management reviews with the Board risks to the enterprise and efforts to address them. In addition, presentations are made in the ordinary course at scheduled Board meetings regarding operations, finance, market trends, and the various other risks that face the Company.

***Board Leadership Structure and Board's Role in Risk Oversight***

Our board is generally responsible for the oversight of corporate risk in its review and deliberations relating to our activities. Our principal source of risk falls into two categories, financial and product commercialization. The board oversees management of financial risks; our board regularly reviews information regarding our cash position, liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. The board regularly reviews plans, results and potential risks related to our business. The board is also expected to oversee risk management as it relates to our compensation plans, policies and practices for all employees including executives and directors, particularly whether our compensation programs may create incentives for our employees to take excessive or inappropriate risks which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

***Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors***

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending, or completed legal action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an officer or director of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding, provided that such officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests, and, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation in the performance of his duty. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which such officer or director actually and reasonably incurred.

In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation provides that directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors. The effect of this provision is to eliminate the personal liability of directors for monetary damages or actions involving a breach of their fiduciary duty of care, including any actions involving gross negligence.

These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder's investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

We believe that these provisions, the insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced officers and directors.

**ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

We have opted to comply with the executive compensation disclosure rules applicable to "smaller reporting companies" as such term is defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The following disclosure concerns the compensation arrangements of our current named executive officers for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The following table summarizes all compensation recorded by us in the past two fiscal years for:

● our principal executive officer or other individual acting in a similar capacity during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024,

● our two most highly compensated executive officers, other than our principal executive officers, who were serving as executive officers at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and

● up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

**Equity Award Plans**

On June 23, 2025, the Company adopted the MDwerks, Inc. 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan"), which was filed on Form S-8 on July 15, 2025, pursuant to which the Company initially reserved and made available for future issuance under the 2025 Plan 10,000,000 shares of common stock in the form of various incentive awards.

**Director Compensation**

The Board of Directors of the Company has not adopted a stock option plan but may choose to do so in the future. If such a plan is adopted, this may be administered by the board or a committee appointed by the board. The committee would have the power to modify, extend or renew outstanding options and to authorize the grant of new options in substitution therefore, provided that any such action may not impair any rights under any option previously granted.

The table below summarizes all compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to our directors for all services rendered in all capacities to us during the year ended December 31, 2025.

**ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS**

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our voting securities by (i) each director and named executive officer, (ii) all executive officers and directors as a group; and (iii) each shareholder known to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company as of December 31, 2025.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Generally, a person is considered to beneficially own securities: (i) over which such person, directly or indirectly, exercises sole or shared voting or investment power, and (ii) of which such person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time within 60 days (such as through exercise of stock options or warrants). For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares held by each person or group of persons, any shares that such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days of December 31, 2024 are deemed to be outstanding but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership. The following table sets forth information regarding the number of shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned as of the date of this Annual Report, by each person who is known by the Company to beneficially own 5% or more of the Company's Common Stock, each of the Company's directors and executive officers, and all of the Company's directors and executive officers, as a group: On December 31, 2025 we had 234,105,560 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

\* Indicates beneficial ownership of less than 1% of the outstanding common stock.

(1) The percentages in the table have been calculated on the basis of treating as outstanding for a particular person, all shares of our capital stock outstanding on December 31, 2025, there were 234,105,560 shares of our common stock outstanding and 0 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. To calculate a stockholder's percentage of beneficial ownership, we include in the numerator and denominator the common stock outstanding and all shares of our common stock issuable to that person in the event of the exercise of outstanding options and other derivative securities owned by that person which are exercisable within 60 days of December 31, 2025. Common stock options and derivative securities held by other stockholders are disregarded in this calculation. Therefore, the denominator used in calculating beneficial ownership among our stockholders may differ. Unless we have indicated otherwise, each person named in the table has sole voting power and sole investment power for the shares listed opposite such person's name.

(2) Mr. Mort is located in Fletcher, NC.

(3) Includes 10,542,506 shares owned by Infinity Holdings Group, Inc. and 3,000,000 shares held by Infinity Holdings Capital Inc., entities controlled by Brian Plotkin. Infinity Holdings Group, Inc. and Infinity Holdings Capital Inc. are located in Croton on Hudson, NY.

Also includes 261,471 shares held by Mr. Plotkin, and 239,331 shares held by Steel Style Sales, Inc., located in Croton on Hudson, NY.

(5) Mr. Slagle is located in Black Mountain, NC

## Exhibit 4.1

**Exhibit 4.1**

**DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK**

The following description of our capital stock is based upon our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and applicable provisions of law, in each case as currently in effect. This discussion does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and our bylaws, as amended, copies of which are filed with the SEC.

**Authorized Capital Stock**

As of December 31, 2024, our authorized capital stock consists of (i) 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of December 31, 2025, 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock are designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. At December 31, 2025, we had 234,105,560 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 0 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

**Common Stock**

Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at meetings of shareholders. The holders are not permitted to vote their shares cumulatively. Accordingly, the shareholders of our common stock who hold, in the aggregate, more than fifty percent of the total voting rights can elect all of our directors and, in such event, the holders of the remaining minority shares will not be able to elect any of such directors. The vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote thereon is sufficient to authorize, affirm, ratify or consent to such act or action, except as otherwise provided by law.

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. We have not paid any dividends on common stock since our inception, and we presently anticipate that all earnings, if any, will be retained for development of our business. Any future disposition of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights or other subscription rights, conversion rights, redemption or sinking fund provisions. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to shareholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities. There are not any provisions in our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws that would prevent or delay a change in our control.

**Preferred Stock**

The board of directors shall have the authority to authorize the issuance of the preferred stock from time to time in one or more classes or series, and to state in the resolution or resolutions from time to time adopted providing for the issuance thereof the number of shares or any series, the voting powers, redemption provisions, dividend rights, etc.

The shares of each class or series of the preferred stock may vary from the shares of any other class or series thereof in any respect. The Board of Directors may increase the number of shares of the preferred stock designated for any existing class or series by a resolution adding to such class or series authorized and unissued shares of the preferred stock not designated for any existing class or series of the preferred stock and the shares so subtracted shall become authorized, unissued and undesignated shares of the preferred stock.

**Transfer Agent**

The transfer agent for our common stock is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, located at 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, NY 10004-1571. The transfer agent's phone number is (800) 509-5586. The Company serves as warrant agent for the warrants unless the Company determines to appoint a commercial transfer agent for such securities.

**Anti-Takeover Effect of Delaware Law, Our Certificate of Incorporation and Certain By-Law Provisions**

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and/or by-laws are intended to strengthen our Board's position in the event of a hostile takeover attempt. These provisions have the following effects:

● They provide that only business brought before an annual meeting by our Board or by a stockholder who complies with the procedures set forth in the by-laws may be transacted at an annual meeting of stockholders; and

● They provide for advance notice or certain stockholder actions, such as the nomination of directors and stockholder proposals.

● The certificate of incorporation provides for the limitation of liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers.

● Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors in their sole discretion. Our board of directors may, without stockholder approval, issue series of preferred stock with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock.

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti-takeover law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a ''business combination'' with an ''interested stockholder'' for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. For purposes of Section 203, a ''business combination'' includes a merger, asset sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder, and an ''interested stockholder'' is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior, did own, 15% or more of the voting stock.

**Indemnification of Directors and Officers.**

As permitted by the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), we have the power to indemnify any person made a party to an action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that they are or were a director, officer, employee or agent of ours, against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding if they acted in good faith and in a manner which they reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interest and, in any criminal action or proceeding, they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. Termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.

We must indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent who is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter in the proceeding, to which they are a party because they are or were a director, officer, employee or agent, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with the defense.

We may provide to pay the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding as the expenses are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that they are not entitled to be indemnified.

The DGCL also permits a corporation to purchase and maintain liability insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was

● a director, officer, employee or agent of ours,

● or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprises.

Such coverage may be for any liability asserted against them and liability and expenses incurred by them in their capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising out of their status as such, whether or not the corporation has the authority to indemnify them against such liability and expenses.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, as amended, may be permitted to officers, directors or persons controlling our company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is therefore unenforceable.

You are responsible for the transactions of these other persons, and therefore, you should make them aware of these procedures and their need to confer with you before they engage in any transaction subject to these procedures. As used in this Policy, "you" means any individual or entity subject to the policies and procedures described herein.

The consequences of illegal insider trading are severe and can result in civil and criminal liability, as well as disciplinary action by the Company. In addition, a person can be held responsible for the trading violations of others if inside information is passed on, resulting in insider trading by others. Penalties can include:

*For Individuals:*

● Civil penalties up to three times the profit gained or loss avoided (including, in certain circumstances, from persons who "control" the primary violator).

● Private remedy against insider trading for benefit of persons who traded in the same securities contemporaneously.

● Maximum of 30 years imprisonment.

● Fines of up to $5 million for individuals.

*For Entities:*

● Civil penalties of $1,000,000 or three times the profit gained or loss avoided (including, in certain circumstances, from persons who "control" the entity), whichever is greater;

● Criminal penalties of up to $25,000,000.

Any of the above consequences would seriously harm the reputation and career of the offender, as well as the Company. The size of a transaction in violation of this Policy has no impact on potential insider trading liability, SEC investigations and lawsuits. Additionally, if the Company concludes an employee has violated this Policy, the Company may dismiss the or commence other disciplinary actions against the violating employee, whether the act was intentional or not.

**<u>INSIDER TRADING EXPLAINED</u>**

**No Trading or Acting on Inside Information**

If you are aware of material nonpublic information relating to the Company, you may not, either directly or through family members or other persons or entities:

● Buy or sell securities of the Company (other than as explained herein); or

● Make a gift of Company securities; or

● Engage in any other action to take personal advantage of that information; or

● Pass that information on to others outside the Company, including family and friends.

Also, if you learn of material nonpublic information about another company with which the Company does business, including a customer or supplier, you may not trade in the other company's securities until the information becomes public or is no longer material.

Transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent, personal reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure) are not exempted from these rules. The securities laws do not recognize such mitigating circumstances, and, in any event, even the appearance of an improper transaction must be avoided to preserve the Company's reputation for adhering to the highest standards of conduct.

**When Information Becomes Public**

Information is not deemed to become "public" until the information has been disclosed broadly to the marketplace (such as by Company press releases or an SEC filing) and the investing public has had time to absorb the information fully. To avoid the appearance of impropriety, information will not be considered fully absorbed by the marketplace until **the third trading day after the day the information has been publicly disclosed.**

Examples:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **If the Information is Announced:** | **You May Begin Trading:** |
| Monday | Thursday |
| Friday | Wednesday |
| Friday Before a Monday Holiday | Thursday |

---

**What Constitutes Material Information**

Material information is any information that a reasonable investor would consider important in making a decision to buy, hold, or sell securities. *Any information that might reasonably be expected to affect the Company's stock price, whether it is positive or negative, should be considered material.* Some examples of information that would ordinarily be regarded as material are:

● Projections of future earnings or losses, or other earnings guidance;

● Earnings that are inconsistent with the consensus expectations of the investment community;

● A pending or proposed merger, acquisition or tender offer;

● A pending or proposed acquisition or disposition of a significant asset;

● A change in dividend policy, the declaration of a stock split, or an offering of additional securities;

● A change in management;

● Development of a significant new product or process;

● Impending bankruptcy or the existence of severe liquidity problems;

● The gain or loss of a significant customer or supplier; or

● Imminent issuance of a new patent

Anyone scrutinizing your transactions will be doing so after the fact, with the benefit of hindsight. As a practical matter, before engaging in any transaction, you should carefully consider how enforcement authorities and others might view the transaction in hindsight.

Whether information is "material" may be difficult to determine. For this reason, you are urged to contact Company counsel if you have any questions as to whether any particular information is or is not material.

**No Individual Disclosure of Information**

You may not disclose information about the Company to anyone outside the Company, including family members and friends, and you may not discuss the Company or its business in an internet "chat room" or similar internet-based forum.

**Transactions by Non-Residents**

The same restrictions apply regardless of whether a person is resident within the United States.

**Other Prohibited Transactions**

The Company considers it improper and inappropriate for any director, officer or other employee of the Company to engage in speculative transactions in the Company's securities or other transactions which might give the appearance of impropriety. A broker or a person whom you deem to be investment savvy, may suggest one of the following, more sophisticated types of transactions; however, they are prohibited. If you are unsure about the type of transaction that has been suggested to you, please contact Company counsel. These types of transactions include:

● **Derivative Securities.** This involves transactions with warrants. You may not engage in transactions in puts, calls or other derivative securities based on the Company's securities.

● **Hedging Transactions.** The best way to understand hedging is to think of it as insurance. When people decide to hedge, they are insuring themselves against a negative event. This doesn't prevent a negative event from happening, but if it does happen and you're properly hedged, the impact of the event is reduced. So, hedging occurs almost everywhere, and we see it everyday. For example, if you buy house insurance, you are hedging yourself against fires, break-ins or other unforeseen disasters. Ask your broker or Company counsel for details.

● **Margin Accounts and Pledges.** You may not purchase Company securities on margin, or borrow against any account in which Company securities are held, or pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan.

● **Trading in securities on a short-term basis.** Company securities purchased in the open market (i.e., not obtained via an employee stock option or employee stock purchase plan) should be held for six-months at minimum. Prior written consent from the Company must be obtained by any employee desiring to sell Company securities that were purchased in the open market and that have not been owned for greater than six months. A written request for such consent from the Company must be requested at least three (3) business days prior to the proposed sale, and cannot be requested more than five (5) days prior to the proposed sale.

**Transactions Under Company Plans**

**Stock Option Exercises.** These rules do not apply to your cash exercise of an employee stock option given to you under and in connection with the Company's Stock Incentive Plan or similar plan from time to time in effect, unless it is a sale of stock that is part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option or any other market sale for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price of an option.

**Exception for Approved 10b5-1 Plans.** Trades by members of the Board of Directors, officers or employees in the Company's securities that are executed pursuant to an approved 10b5-1 trading plan (a "Trading Plan") are not subject to the prohibition on trading on the basis of material non- public information contained in this Policy or to the restrictions set forth below relating to pre- clearance procedures and blackout periods.

Federal securities laws allow affirmative defenses from insider trading liability under SEC Rule 10b5-1 for trading plans that meet certain requirements. Insider trading lawsuits may still be brought against individuals trading under such a Trading Plan. This Policy permits individuals to adopt SEC Rule 10b5-1 compliant Trading Plans with brokers for trading of the Company's securities and the exercise of options upon prior written approval by the Company. The Company may also choose to review a proposed Trading Plan, and reserves the right to reject a Trading Plan if it so chooses.

**Revocation/Amendments to Trading Plans.** Amendments of a Trading Plan may not occur once a Trading Plan is in place. Revocations of a Trading Plan may occur upon written notice to the broker, but only if the individual is not aware of any material non-public information of the Company at the time of revocation. However, if the individual terminates the Trading Plan after the first option exercise or stock sale, then the individual must cancel all outstanding Trading Plans and agree not to enter into another Trading Plan until six months after termination of the Trading Plan.

Under certain circumstances, a Trading Plan must be revoked or suspended by the Company. This includes circumstances such as the announcement of a merger or the occurrence of an event that would cause the transaction either to violate the law or to have an adverse effect on the Company. The Company is authorized to notify the broker in such circumstances.

**<u>HOW TO TRADE</u>**

**Pre-Clearance Requirement**

While you are subject to these rules, you may not engage in any transaction involving the Company's securities (including a stock plan transaction such as an option exercise, gift, loan or pledge or hedge, contribution to a trust, or any other transfer) without first obtaining pre-clearance of the transaction from both the Chief Executive Officer and either (a) the General Counsel (if any) or (b) the Chief Financial Officer. A request for pre-clearance should be submitted to one of these persons at least one week in advance of the proposed transaction. The Chief Executive Officer, General Counsel (if any) and Chief Financial Officer are under no obligation to approve a trade submitted for pre-clearance and may determine not to permit the trade, and they will have no liability for any refusal to permit a trade or for any delay in making or communicating a decision.

**Quarterly Blackout Periods**

The Company's announcement of its quarterly financial results almost always has the potential to have a material effect on the market for the Company's securities. Therefore, in order to avoid even the appearance of trading while aware of material nonpublic information, you generally will not be pre-cleared to trade in the Company's securities during the following periods:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Quarterly Blackout Period <u>Begins</u>:** | Seven (7) days prior to the end of the Company's fiscal quarter (the Company's fiscal quarters end on March 31<sup>st</sup>, June 30<sup>th</sup>, September 30<sup>th</sup> , and December 31<sup>st</sup> of each year). |
| **Quarterly Blackout Period <u>Ends</u>:** | At the close of trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or any exchange upon which the Company's stock is listed for trading on the second full trading day following the Company's filing of its quarterly report with the SEC. |

---

**Event-Specific Blackouts**

From time to time, an event may occur that is material to the Company and is known by only a few individuals inside the Company. If you are one of those individuals, or if it would appear to an outsider that you were likely to have had access to information about such an event, then you will not be allowed to trade in the Company's securities so long as the event remains material and nonpublic.

Also, the Company may on occasion issue interim earnings guidance or other potentially material information by means of a press release, SEC filing on Form 8-K or other means designed to achieve widespread dissemination of the information. You should anticipate that trades are unlikely to be pre-cleared while the Company is in the process of assembling the information to be released and until the information has been released and fully absorbed by the market. The existence of an event-specific blackout will not be announced. If you request pre-clearance of a transaction in the Company's securities during an event-specific blackout, you will be informed of the existence of a blackout period, but you may not be advised of the reason for the blackout.

If you are made aware of the existence of an event-specific blackout you should not disclose the existence of the blackout to any other person. Whether or not you are designated as being subject to an event-specific blackout you still have the obligation not to trade while aware of material nonpublic information.

The prohibitive rules described herein and imposed by the Company upon you as a term of your employment or retainer cease to apply to your transactions in Company securities upon the expiration of any "blackout period" in existence at the time of the termination of your service as a director, executive officer or employee. Be aware that many of the federal rules may continue to apply to you after the termination of your service with the Company.

**<u>COMPANY ASSISTANCE</u>**

Compliance with this Policy by all employees is of the utmost importance both for the employee and for the Company. If you have any questions about Insider Trading or its application to any proposed transaction you may obtain additional guidance from the Company's outside counsel (Laura Anthony, Esq.), who can be reached by telephone at (561) 514-0936. Due to the serious consequences of illegal insider trading, we urge you to err on the side of caution and contact Ms. Anthony with any and all questions regarding this topic. Ultimately, however, the responsibility for adhering to Insider Trading rules and avoiding unlawful transactions rests with you.

**<u>AMENDMENTS</u>**

Officers of the Company may, from time to time, make non-substantive amendments to this Policy (including, without limitation, substitution of the names of the appropriate contact persons within the Company) without prior approval of the Company's Board of Directors.

**<u>ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS</u>**

All directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries must acknowledge their receipt of, understanding of, and intent to comply with, this Policy. Such acknowledgment must be evidenced by the individual's signing of the "Acknowledgment" below, whether electronically or in writing. This acknowledgment will constitute each such person's consent for the Company to issue any necessary stop-transfer orders to the Company's transfer agent to enforce compliance with this Policy. As a condition of continued employment or engagement all employees (and all other persons, such as consultants or contractors, designated by the Company as subject to this Policy) must periodically acknowledge, electronically or in writing, that they have read and agree to abide by this Policy.

**ADOPTED**: This 6th day of June, 2024.

**<u>ACKNOWLEDGMENT</u>**

I have received and read the Policy on Insider Trading ("Policy") of MDwerks, Inc. (the "Company") and I understand and agree to comply with all of the provisions contained therein. I agree that I will be subject to sanctions imposed by the Company, in its discretion, for violation of this Policy, including dismissal for cause, and that the Company may give stop-transfer and other instructions to the Company's transfer agent against transfer of Company securities by me in a transaction that the Company considers to be in contravention of this Policy on Insider Trading.
