Gross pro t increased 437.8% to $1.9 million, or 62.4% of total revenue, compared with $355,000, or 26.2% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2024. Total operating expenses increased to $1.3 million compared with $940,000 in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in operating expenses is related to SG&A expense of $1.2 million, or 40.0% of revenue, in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $937,000, or 69.1% of revenue, in the third quarter of 2024, as well as stock compensation expense of $41,000 in the third quarter of 2025.

Net loss in the third quarter of 2025 was $(1.1 million) compared with net loss of $(2.0 million) in the third quarter of 2024. Included in net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was interest expense of $(1.8 million) compared with interest expense of $(1.4 million) in the third quarter of 2024.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, as part of the Company's ongoing enhancements to internal controls over nancial reporting, a detailed review of its interest expense-related cash ow classi cation was performed. As a result, the Company restated certain amounts within the condensed consolidated statement of cash ows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This was reclassi ed to correct the presentation of $1,953,667 of non-cash interest accrual adjustments related to the Company's line of credit as of September 30, 2024. These amounts, previously presented within net proceeds from the line of credit in nancing activities, are now presented within operating activities. This change in presentation has no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations, or total cash ows for any related period.
