ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under
the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Our management
is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined
in Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15(f). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.
Our internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| |
● |
pertain to the maintenance of records, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
provide reasonable assurance our transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the U.S.; and; |
| |
|
|
| |
● |
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets could have a material effect on the financial
statements. |
Due to its inherent
limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect
all misstatements. Further, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting may vary over
time. Our system contains self-monitoring mechanisms, so actions will be taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.
Our management
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the system of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation,
our management concluded our system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.
This Form 10-K
does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of
the SEC to permit us to provide only management’s report in this Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
