- Revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 was $894,309, compared to $464,172 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. This significant growth of approximately 93% was primarily driven by the technical rebuild and improvements to the Company’s flagship e-commerce platform, LiftKits4Less.com, which enabled a broader inventory selection and more effective digital media efforts. These enhancements increased product availability, boosted site traffic, and improved conversion rates, directly contributing to higher sales volumes.

- Operating expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 totaled $774,701 versus $467,966 in the quarter ended September 30, 2025, reflecting costs attributable to labor, professional fees, advertising and merchant fees as we continue to branch out our product lines in Sugar Auto Parts and had increased labor and contractors in compliance with our regulatory filings in the quarter ended December 31, 2025.
- Net income (loss) for the quarter was $998,866, or $(0.00) per share, compared to net income in our prior quarter of $96,322, or $0.00 per share. The increase in our net loss in this quarter ended December 31, 2025 was the result of increased costs related to our regulatory filings and increase in our advertising for Sugar Auto Parts.
