FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical facts, contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control), and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to, those described under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2025. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of these assumptions prove incorrect, our actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.
As a result of these and other factors, we may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2025
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Twin Vee PowerCats Co. (“Twin Vee” or the “Company”) was incorporated as Twin Vee Catamarans, Inc., in the state of Florida, on December 1, 2009. On April 7, 2021, the Company filed a Certificate of Conversion to register and incorporate in the state of Delaware and changed the company name to Twin Vee PowerCats Co. The Certificate of Incorporation for Twin Vee PowerCats Co. was also filed on April 7, 2021.
On September 1, 2021, the Company formed Fix My Boat, Inc., (“Fix My Boat”), a wholly owned subsidiary. Fix My Boat will utilize a franchise model for marine mechanics across the country. Fix My Boat has been inactive for the majority of 2024 and on July 23, 2024, Fix My Boat, Inc. was merged into Twin Vee PowerCats Co.
On April 20, 2023, the Company formed AquaSport Co., a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in the state of Florida in connection with the Company’s plan to lease the assets of former AQUASPORT™ boat brand and manufacturing facility in White Bluff, Tennessee. On July 30, 2024, AquaSport Co. was merged into Twin Vee PowerCats Co.
Forza X1, Inc. was initially incorporated as Electra Power Sports, Inc. on October 15, 2021, and subsequently changed its name to Forza X1, Inc. (“Forza X1” or “Forza”) on October 29, 2021. Prior to Forza’s incorporation on October 15, 2021, the electric boat business was operated as the Company’s Electra Power Sports™ Division. Following the Company’s initial public offering that closed on July 23, 2021 (the “IPO”), it determined in October 2021 that for several reasons, it would market the Company’s new independent line of electric boats under a new brand name (and new subsidiary).
On November 26, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 12, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and between Twin Vee, Twin Vee Merger Sub, Inc. and Forza, Merger Sub was merged with and into Forza (the “Merger”), with Forza surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Twin Vee. At the effective time of the Merger, (a) each outstanding share of common stock of Forza , par value $0.001 per share of Forza (the “Forza Common Stock”) (other than any shares held by Twin Vee) was converted into the right to receive 0.611666275 shares of Twin Vee common stock, par value $ per share (the “Twin Vee Common Stock”), (b) each outstanding Forza stock option, whether vested or unvested, that had not previously been exercised prior to such time was converted into an option to purchase 0.611666275 shares of Twin Vee Common Stock for each share of Forza Common Stock covered by such option, (c) each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Forza Common Stock was assumed by Twin Vee and converted into a warrant to purchase 0.611666275 shares of Twin Vee Common Stock for each share of Forza Common Stock for which such warrant was exercisable for prior to the Effective Time, and (d) the shares of Forza Common Stock held by Twin Vee were cancelled.
On March 26, 2025, the Company formed WIZZ BANGER, INC., a wholly owned subsidiary in the state of Florida in connection with the Company’s plan to develop an enhanced used boat marketplace leveraging the recently acquired URLs, Boatsforsale.com and Yachtsforsale.com.
Going Concern
Our unaudited financial statement for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 were prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern; however, we have incurred significant losses from operations to date and we expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report are issued. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.
8
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Twin Vee and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of March 31, 2025, Forza X1 and WIZZ BANGER, INC., collectively referred to as the “Company”. Prior to November 26, 2024, the Company’s net loss excludes losses attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company reported noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities as a component of equity separate from the Company’s equity. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements.
In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 20, 2025.
As of the close of trading on April 7, 2025 (the “Effective Time”), in order to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement of Nasdaq’s Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2), Twin Vee effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a reverse stock split ratio of 1-for-10, and began trading on a reverse-split-adjusted basis on Nasdaq as of the open of trading on April 8, 2025 under the existing ticker symbol “VEEE.” The par value of the Company’s common stock was unchanged at $0.001 per share after the Reverse Split. As a result, on the effective date of the Reverse Split, the stated capital on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet attributable to the Company’s common stock was reduced proportionally based on the Reverse Split ratio of one-for-10 and the additional paid-in capital account was credited with the amount by which the stated capital was reduced.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from the sale of boats, motors and trailers to its independent dealers. The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied and control over promised goods is transferred to the dealer. For the majority of sales, this occurs when the product is released to the carrier responsible for transporting it to a dealer. The Company typically receives payment within five business days of shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for a product. The Company offers dealer incentives that include wholesale rebates, retail rebates and promotions, floor plan reimbursement or cash discounts, and other allowances that are recorded as reductions of revenues in net sales in the statements of operations. The consideration recognized represents the amount specified in a contract with a customer, net of estimated incentives the Company reasonably expects to pay. The estimated liability and reduction in revenue for dealer incentives is recorded at the time of sale. Subsequent adjustments to incentive estimates are possible because actual results may differ from these estimates if conditions dictate the need to enhance or reduce sales promotion and incentive programs or if dealer achievement or other items vary from historical trends. Accrued dealer incentives are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Payment received for the future sale of a boat to
a customer is recognized as a customer deposit. Customer deposits are recognized as revenue when control over promised goods is transferred
to the customer. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had customer deposits of $
9
Rebates and Discounts
Dealers earn wholesale rebates based on purchase volume commitments and achievement of certain performance metrics. The Company estimates the amount of wholesale rebates based on historical achievement, forecasted volume, and assumptions regarding dealer behavior. Rebates that apply to boats already in dealer inventory are referred to as retail rebates. The Company estimates the amount of retail rebates based on historical data for specific boat models adjusted for forecasted sales volume, product mix, dealer and consumer behavior, and assumptions concerning market conditions. The Company also utilizes various programs whereby it offers cash discounts or agrees to reimburse its dealers for certain floor plan interest costs incurred by dealers for limited periods of time, generally ranging up to six months. These floor plan interest costs are treated as a reduction in the revenue recognized on the sale at an amount estimated at the time of sale.
Other Revenue Recognition Matters
Dealers generally have no right to return unsold boats. Occasionally, the Company may accept returns in limited circumstances and at the Company’s discretion under its warranty policy. The Company may be obligated, in the event of default by a dealer, to accept returns of unsold boats under its repurchase commitment to floor financing providers, who are able to obtain such boats through foreclosure. The repurchase commitment is on an individual unit basis with a term from the date it is financed by the lending institution through the payment date by the dealer, generally not exceeding 30 months.
The Company has excluded sales and other taxes assessed by a governmental authority in connection with revenue-producing activities from the determination of the transaction price for all contracts. The Company has not adjusted net sales for the effects of a significant financing component because the period between the transfer of the promised goods and the customer’s payment is expected to be one year or less.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Some of these judgments can be subjective and complex, and, consequently, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Concentrations of Credit and Business Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the
Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables. Credit risk on trade receivables is mitigated as a result
of the Company’s use of trade letters of credit, dealer floor plan financing arrangements, and the geographically diversified nature
of the Company’s customer base. The Company minimizes the concentration of credit risk associated with its cash by maintaining its
cash with high quality federally insured financial institutions. However, cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(“FDIC”) insured limit of $
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash include
all highly liquid investments with original maturities of six months or less at the time of purchase. On March 31, 2025 and December 31,
2024, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $
10
Marketable Securities
The Company’s investments in debt securities are carried at either amortized cost or fair value. Investments in debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are carried at amortized cost and classified as held-to-maturity. Investments in debt securities that are not classified as held-to-maturity are carried at fair value and classified as either trading or available-for-sale. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading debt securities as well as realized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities are included in net income.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows accounting guidelines on fair value measurements for financial instruments measured on a recurring basis, as well as for certain assets and liabilities that are initially recorded at their estimated fair values. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as the measurement date. The Company uses the following three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to value its financial instruments:
● | Level 1: Observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. | |
● | Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. | |
● | Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires a significant judgment or estimation. |
Financial instruments measured as fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires it to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair values. Accordingly, the fair value estimates disclosed, or initial amounts recorded may not be indicative of the amount that the Company or holders of the instruments could realize in a current market exchange.
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents approximate their fair value due to their liquid or short-term nature, such as accounts receivable and payable, and other financial instruments in current assets or current liabilities.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s Accounts Receivable is derived from third party financing arrangements that its dealers utilize to finance the purchase of its boats. This “floorplan financing” is collateralized by the finished boat, and cash payment is received within 3-5 days of the finance company’s approval of the dealer’s purchase. At the end of a reporting period, some payment(s) may not yet have been received from the financing company, which creates a temporary account receivable that will be satisfied in just a few days. As such, the Company’s Accounts Receivable at any point in time are 100% collectable, and no valuation adjustment is necessary. Therefore, there is no allowance for credit losses on the Company’s balance sheet.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net
realizable value, with cost determined using the average cost method on a first-in first -out basis. Net realizable value is defined as
sales price, less cost of completion, disposable and transportation and a normal profit margin. Production costs, consisting of labor
and overhead, are applied to ending finished goods inventories at a rate based on estimated production capacity. Excess production costs
are charged to cost of products sold. Provisions have been made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.
Provisions for excess and obsolete inventories at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $
11
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, using the straight-line method over the assets’ useful life. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the assets’ useful life or the lease term. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment range from three to five years. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation is eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations. Repairs and maintenance charges, which do not increase the useful lives of the assets, are charged to operations as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived
assets when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing
the undiscounted net cash flows estimated to result from those assets over the remaining life to the assets’ net carrying amounts.
If the estimated undiscounted net cash flows are less than the net carrying amount, the assets would be adjusted to their fair value,
based on appraisal or the present value of the undiscounted net cash flows. An impairment charge of $
Assets Held for Sale

$
Advertising
Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred,
and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. During the
three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, advertising costs incurred by the Company totaled $
Research and Development
The Company expenses research and development costs
relating to new product development as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, research and development costs amounted
to $
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs include those costs incurred
to transport products to customers and internal handling costs, which relate to activities to prepare goods for shipment. The Company
has elected to account for shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has been transferred
to a customer as a fulfillment cost. The Company includes shipping and handling costs, including costs billed to customers, in cost of
sales in the statements of operations. All manufactured boats are free on board (FOB) from the Fort Pierce manufacturing plant. Dealers
are required to either pick up the boats themselves or contracts with a transporter. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024,
shipping and handling costs amounted to $
12
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, it uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company calculates the associated lease liability and corresponding ROU asset upon lease commencement using a discount rate based on a credit-adjusted secured borrowing rate commensurate with the term of the lease. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and is reduced by lease incentives. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expenses for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Product Warranty Costs
The Company accrues for warranty costs based on the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty replacement products. The methodology used in determining the liability for warranty cost is based upon historical information and experience. The Company’s warranty reserve is calculated as the gross sales multiplied by the historical warranty expense return rate. The company’s warranty liability is included in the accrued liabilities line item of the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Supplier Concentrations
The Company is dependent on the ability of its suppliers to provide products on a timely basis and on favorable pricing terms. The loss of certain principal suppliers or a significant reduction in product availability from principal suppliers could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Business risk insurance is in place to mitigate the business risk associated with sole suppliers for sudden disruptions such as those caused by natural disasters.
The Company is dependent on third-party equipment
manufacturers, distributors, and dealers for certain parts and materials utilized in the manufacturing process. During the three months
ended March 31, 2025, the Company purchased all engines and certain composite materials for its boats under supplier agreements with three
vendors. Total purchases from these vendors were $
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation costs for its restricted stock measured at the fair value of each award at the time of grant, as an expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service. Compensation cost is recognized over the service period for the fair value of awards that vest.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is entirely dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosures of significant expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported segment measure of segment profit or loss. The update also requires disclosure regarding the chief operating decision maker and expands interim segment disclosure requirements.

4. Leases
Operating right of use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating right of use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset and is based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, the Company estimates incremental secured borrowing rates corresponding to the maturities of the leases.
The Company’s office lease contains rent escalations over the lease term. The Company recognizes expense for this office lease on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, tenant incentives used to fund leasehold improvements are recognized when earned and reduce the Company’s right-of-use asset related to the lease. These are amortized through the right-of-use asset as reductions of expense over the lease term.
The Company leases its office and warehouse facilities,
and the land which are located at 3101 S US-1, Fort Pierce, Florida (the “Property”) from Visconti Holdings, LLC. Visconti

Equity Compensation Plan
The Company maintains an equity compensation plan (the “Plan”) under which it may award employees, directors and consultants’ incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and other stock-based awards with terms established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors which has been appointed by the Board of Directors to administer the Plan.

Accounting for Stock -Based Compensation
Stock Compensation Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $
and $ , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense. Stock-based compensation expense is included in salaries and wages on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Stock Options
Under the Company’s 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the Twin Vee Plan) the Company has issued stock options. A stock option grant gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a certain number of shares at a predetermined price for a specific period of time. The Company typically issues options that vest pro rata on a monthly basis over various periods. Under the terms of the Twin Vee Plan, the contractual life of the option grants may not exceed ten years.
The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes model to determine fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant. No options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company utilized the following assumptions for option grants during the three months ended March 31, 2024:

2024 | ||||
Expected term | years | |||
Expected average volatility | - | % | ||

The expected volatility of the option is determined using historical volatilities based on historical stock price of comparable boat manufacturing companies. The Company estimated the expected life of the options granted based upon historical weighted average of comparable boat manufacturing companies. The risk-free interest rate is determined using the St. Louis Federal Reserve yield curve rates with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option. The Company has never paid a dividend, and as such the dividend yield is

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. You should also review the disclosure under the heading “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for a discussion of important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
All share amounts and exercise or conversion prices in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been adjusted retrospectively for our 1-for-10 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”), which was effective on April 7, 2025.
OVERVIEW
Twin Vee PowerCats Co. (“Twin Vee” “we”, “us” or the “Company”) is a designer, manufacturer and marketer of recreational and commercial power boats. We believe our company, founded in 1996, has been an innovator in the recreational and commercial power catamaran industry. Our twin-hull catamaran running surface, known as a symmetrical catamaran hull design, adds to the Twin Vee ride quality by reducing drag, increasing fuel efficiency and offering users a stable riding boat. Twin Vee’s home base operations in Fort Pierce, Florida is a 7.5-acre facility with several buildings totaling approximately 100,000 square feet, including a nearly complete 30,000 square foot expansion which began in mid-2024. We currently employ approximately 85 people.
Twin Vee products are marketed under two brands: Twin Vee for our catamarans, or dual hull vessels, and Aquasport for our “V”-hull boats. Consumers can use our boats for a wide range of recreational activities including fishing, diving and water skiing and commercial activities including transportation, eco tours, fishing and diving expeditions. We believe that the performance, quality and value of our boats position us to achieve our goal of increasing our market share and expanding the power-boat market. We currently primarily sell our boats through a network of 22 independent boat dealers across North America, the Caribbean and Central America who resell our boats to the end user Twin Vee customers. We continue efforts to recruit high quality boat dealers to join our network and seek to establish new dealers and distributors domestically and internationally to distribute our boats as we grow our production and introduce new models. Our boats are currently outfitted with gas-powered outboard combustion engines. During 2024, Forza X1, Inc., our then minority owned electric boat subsidiary determined to cease production of electric boats and on November 26, 2024, Forza X1, Inc.(“Forza”), was merged into Twin Vee Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Twin Vee (“Merger Sub”) and became a wholly owned subsidiary.
Revenue from the sale of our boats accounted for 100% of our net revenue in the first quarter of 2025 and for the fiscal year 2024. Our boats are manufactured in Fort Pierce, Florida. We believe our company has been an innovator in the recreational and commercial power boat industry. We currently have 15 models in production ranging in size from our 22-foot, single engine, monohull (Aquasport) to our 40-foot offshore 400 GFX.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, two individual dealers each represented over 10% of our total sales and together represented 54% of total sales. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, three individual dealers each represented over 10% of our total sales, and combined they represented 49% of total sales.
23
Our unaudited financial statement for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 were prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern; however, we have incurred significant losses from operations to date and we expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report are issued. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.
Recent Developments
On November 26, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, by and between us, Twin Vee Merger Sub, Inc. and Forza, Merger Sub was merged with and into Forza (the “Merger”), with Forza surviving the Merger as our wholly-owned subsidiary. At the effective time of the Merger, (a) each outstanding share of common stock of Forza , par value $0.001 per share of Forza (the “Forza Common Stock”) (other than any shares held by Twin Vee) was converted into the right to receive 0.611666275 shares of Twin Vee common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Twin Vee Common Stock” or “ Common Stock”) for an aggregate of 5,355,000 pre-split shares of our common stock (approximately 535,500 shares after adjustment for the Reverse Stock Split), (b) each outstanding Forza stock option, whether vested or unvested, that had not previously been exercised prior to such time was converted into an option to purchase 0.611666275 shares of Twin Vee Common Stock for each share of Forza Common Stock covered by such option, and (c) each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Forza Common Stock was assumed by Twin Vee and converted into a warrant to purchase 0.611666275 shares of Twin Vee Common Stock for each share of Forza Common Stock for which such warrant was exercisable for prior to the Effective Time.
The issuance of shares of Twin Vee Common Stock to the former shareholders of Forza was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-281788), as amended, filed by Twin Vee with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and declared effective on October 10, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”).
At the effective time of the Merger, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the size of Twin Vee’s board of directors (the “Board”) was set at five, Joseph Visconti, Preston Yarborough, Neil Ross and Kevin Schuyler remained as directors of Twin Vee and Marcia Kull was appointed as a director of Twin Vee. Effective as of the effective time of the Merger, Bard Rockenbach and James Melvin resigned as directors of Twin Vee and any committees thereof.
Nasdaq Compliance
On May 10, 2024, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days (March 28, 2024 through May 9, 2024), our Common Stock did not maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). We were provided 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2024, to regain compliance. On November 7, 2024, we received written notification from Nasdaq granting our request for a 180-day extension to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Compliance would be achieved if the closing bid price of our Common Stock is at or above $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time prior to May 5, 2025.
On April 4, 2025, we filed an amendment (the “Amendment”) to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-10, effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on April 7, 2025 (the “Effective Time”), in order to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Our Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on April 8, 2025 under the existing ticker symbol “VEEE.” Any share amounts and exercise or conversion prices in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been adjusted retrospectively for the Reverse Stock Split.
On April 28 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq stating that Nasdaq had determined that we now comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

Sale Agreement with Revver Digital, LLC
On February 4, 2025, we entered into an agreement (the “Sale Agreement”), effective February 4, 2025 (the “Effective Date”), with Revver Digital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of One Water Marine Inc. (“OWM”), providing us with the right to acquire certain intellectual property of OWM (the “OWN Intellectual Property”) related to (a) the online marketplace, advertisement, marketing, and sale services of yachts, boats, and yacht and boat accessories and (b) arranging of loans, insurance, and warranty services related to yachts and boats under the brands “Yachts for Sale” and “Boats for Sale” through the websites available at the domains (the “Domains”) “yachtsforsale.com” and “boatsforsale.com” (the “Business”). Pending the closing of the sale to us of the OWN Intellectual Property, the Sale Agreement grants us a license to use and sublicense the OWN Intellectual Property to conduct the Business in consideration of: (a) the payment to OWM of a monthly revenue-sharing royalty (the “Revenue-Sharing Royalty”) of six percent (6%) of the Aggregate Subscription Revenue (as defined) of the Business; and (b) a credit to OWM of $500 per OWM dealer who lists boats or yachts on the Domains during such period (the “Dealer Storefront Credit”). On the date of the closing (the “Closing”) of the sale to us of the OWN Intellectual Property, the Sale Agreement provides that in consideration of the transfer of, and as a purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for, the OWM Intellectual Property, we will assume certain liabilities of OWM related to the Business and pay to OWM $5,000,000 (the “Minimum Purchase Price”), less the aggregate amount of all Revenue-Sharing Royalties paid to OWM through such date and the aggregate amount of all Dealer Storefront Credits accrued for the benefit of OWM through such date (the “Remaining Purchase Price”).

Net Sales and Cost of Sales
Our net sales decreased by $1,664,052, or 32% to $3,612,291 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $5,276,343 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease was due to a decrease in the number and changes in the mix of boats sold during the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, we sold 24 boats at an average selling price of approximately $150,000 per unit, compared to 32 units in the first quarter of 2024 with an average selling price of approximately $165,000. This reduction in unit price is due primarily to mix, where 2 40-foot boats were delivered in the first quarter of 2024 versus 0 in the first quarter of 2025.
25
Gross Profit
Gross profits improved by $259,801 or 94% to $537,114 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $277,313 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was 14.9% compared to 5.3% in the first quarter of 2024. This 9.6% improvement in gross profit, while sales declined 32%, reflects our ongoing efforts to reduce our cost structure such as bringing certain manufacturing operations in-house, and better utilization of our ERP system leveraged against higher volumes.
Operating Expenses
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, total operating expenses were $2,216,208 and $2,820,520, respectively, a decrease of $604,312 or 21%. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales was 61.4% compared to 53.4% in the prior year.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased by approximately 14%, or $95,402 to $598,552 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $693,954 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to reductions in marketing and advertising, the cancelation of rents that were previously paid for the former Forza facility in North Carolina and a reduction in certain insurance costs.
Salaries and wage related expenses decreased 25%, or $329,307 to $966,962 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1,296,269 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The majority of the decrease is due to reductions in staffing levels at Forza and a reduction in stock-based compensation.. Stock based compensation was $55,968 and $426,283 in the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Research and development expenses were $0 in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $149,691 in the first quarter of 2024. This decrease was due to the wind down of electric boat development.
Professional fees decreased by 43% or $109,314 to $146,011 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $255,325 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease was due primarily to the reduction in legal and accounting costs as a result Forza X1 merging into Twin Vee and no longer being a standalone public company.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 4%, or $16,391 to $441,672 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $425,281 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This increase is due to the addition of fixed assets, primarily molds, to increase our production levels and throughout.
Other income decreased by $139,158 to $68,854 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $208,012 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease was due primarily to a reduction in dividend and interest income from lower cash and cash equivalent balances.
Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $1,610,240, as compared to $2,335,195 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an improvement of $724,955 or 31%. The overall year-over-year improvement in the reported loss for the period was due to the improvement in gross margin resulting from improved cost management and efficiency in the factory and the reduction in costs related to electric boat development. Basic and dilutive loss per share of Common Stock for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was ($1.08), as compared to ($1.77) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an improvement of 39%.
26
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first quarter of 2025, we classified $4,306,896 of building and land in Marion, North Carolina as an asset held for sale under ASC 360 and included it as a separate line item on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. In 2024, we completed the merger of Forza X1, Inc. and ceased the expenditures related to the development of electric boats. The building is now being marketed for sale. While the timing of the sale is uncertain, we are cautiously optimistic of the sale to be completed within one year and it is expected to generate substantial cash to fund future operations.
A primary source of funds for the year ended December 31, 2024 and through March 31, 2025 was net cash received from our 2023 secondary offering, as well as Forza’s initial public and secondary offering and revenue generated from operations. Our primary use of cash was related to funding the expansion of our operations through capital improvements, as well as molds for the expansion of Aquasport and Twin Vee models. With reduced demand, we have been reducing inventory levels. Our priority over the next several months is to continue to ramp up production at a measured pace to match increasing market demand, complete the Twin Vee facility expansion and efficiency project, and finalize the development and marketing of the all-new 22-foot BayCat model.
Going Concern
For the year ended December 31, 2024, we incurred a loss from operations of $14,551,769 and a net loss of $14,009,906. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we incurred a loss from operations of $1,679,094 and a net loss of $1,610,240. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 we had accumulated deficits of $27,003,195 and $25,392,955, respectively. To mitigate these conditions we have plans to improve the liquidity of our business:
o | We have demonstrated strong recent recovery trends, with revenues increasing approximately 92% compared to the previous quarter, however not to a level that yet supports a positive cash flow. |
o | Adjusted net loss has been reduced to approximately $333,000 per month, or about $1 million in the first quarter of 2025. |
o | As of March 31, 2025, we maintain a cash balance exceeding $5 million. |
o | We own a building with no mortgage, which is actively listed for sale and is expected to generate approximately $4 million of additional cash within the next twelve months. |
o | Management continues to implement cost controls, operational improvements, and revenue initiatives to further strengthen our financial position. |
Despite our ongoing efforts to mitigate these conditions, there can be no assurance that our expenses will not continue to increase in future periods or that the cash generated from operations in future periods will be sufficient to satisfy our operating needs. Although we have classified $4,306,896 of building and land in Marion, North Carolina as an asset held for sale, the proceeds of which will help our liquidity, there can be no assurance that we will be able to sell the land and building in the next twelve months and if we do engage in such a sale, that the proceeds will be as expected. If we need to raise additional capital to fund our continued operations, there can be no assurance that funding will be available on acceptable terms on a timely basis, or at all. The various ways that we could raise capital carry potential risks. Any additional sources of financing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that may impact our ability to conduct our business. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms or at all, we may be unable to fill new orders and develop new products. As such, we cannot conclude that such plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report are filed with the SEC, and there is uncertainty regarding our ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate our business effectively, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue from operations and/or raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, we be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate efforts to expand our dealer network or develop new models and may be forced to cease operations or liquidate assets.
27
Sources of Funds
During the first quarter of 2025, we classified $4,306,896 of building and land in Marion, North Carolina as an asset held for sale under ASC 360 and included it as a separate line item on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. In 2024, we completed the merger of Forza X1, Inc. and ceased the expenditures related to the development of electric boats. The building is now being marketed for sale. While the timing of the sale is uncertain, we are cautiously optimistic that the sale could be completed within one year of the date of this Quarterly Report, and if the sale is completed on favorable terms, we believe it has the potential to generate substantial cash to fund our future operations.
A primary source of funds for the year ended December 31, 2024 and through March 31, 2025 was net cash received from our 2023 secondary offering, as well as Forza’s initial public and secondary offering and revenue generated from operations. Our primary use of cash was related to funding the expansion of our operations through capital improvements, as well as molds for the expansion of Aquasport and Twin Vee models. With reduced demand, we have been reducing inventory levels. Our priority over the next several months is to continue to ramp up production at a measured pace to match increasing market demand, complete the Twin Vee facility expansion and efficiency project, and finalize the development and marketing of the all-new 22-foot BayCat model.

Our total liabilities were comprised of current liabilities of $3,021,247 which included accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2,457,309, leases liability of $551,438, contract liability of $12,500. Long term liabilities were $2,866,443. As of December 31, 2024, we had $7,706,240 of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, total current assets of $10,419,141 and total assets of $25,887,905. Our total current liabilities were $3,747,990 and total liabilities were $6,671,055 which included long-term finance leases liabilities of $2,423,165.
The accumulated deficit was $27,003,195 as of March 31, 2025 compared to accumulated deficit of $25,392,955 as of December 31, 2024.
Our working capital increased by $2,508,435 to $9,179,586 as of March 31, 2025, compared to $6,671,151 on December 31, 2024 primarily due to continued operating losses incurred in the period, the cash requirement of the facilities capacity expansion and efficiency project in Ft. Pierce, Florida, and investments in molds for new boat designs, more than offset by the reclassification of assets held for sale to current assets.
In addition to cash and cash equivalents, we anticipate that we will be able to rely, in part, on cash flows from operations and the sale of the manufacturing facility in Marion, North Carolina, to meet our liquidity and capital expenditure needs in the next year.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $1,736,277 compared to $1,749,920 during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The use of cash in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was due primarily to a $1,610,240 net loss and a $552,023 net reduction in accounts payable and accrued liabilities related primarily to a payment for Marion, NC facility construction costs, accrued capital expenditures for the Ft. Pierce facility and an increase in accounts receivable of $198,829 primarily related to two boats delivered late in the first quarter of 2025 and collected early in the second quarter of 2025. These uses were partially offset by depreciation and amortization of $441,672.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, cash used in investing activities was $789,774, due to investments in property, plant and equipment. This compares to cash provided by investing activities of $1,476,448 in the three months ended March 31, 2024 resulting from the sale of marketable securities and the purchase of property and equipment.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in financing activities was approximately $54,806 and $83,735, respectively from finance lease obligations.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
We believe that several accounting policies are important to understanding our historical and future performance. We refer to these policies as “critical” because these specific areas generally require us to make judgments and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time we make the estimate, and different estimates—which also would have been reasonable—could have been used, which would have resulted in different financial results.
Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and make various assumptions, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, which form the basis for judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein contain a summary of our significant accounting policies. We consider the following accounting policies critical to the understanding of the results of our operations:
29
Revenue Recognition
Our revenue is derived primarily from the sale of boats, motors and trailers to its independent dealers. We recognize revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied and control over promised goods is transferred to the dealer. For the majority of sales, this occurs when the product is released to the carrier responsible for transporting it to a dealer. We typically receive payment within five business days of shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration it expects to receive in exchange for a product. We offer dealer incentives that include wholesale rebates, retail rebates and promotions, floor plan reimbursement or cash discounts, and other allowances that are recorded as reductions of revenues in net sales in the statements of operations. The consideration recognized represents the amount specified in a contract with a customer, net of estimated incentives we reasonably expect to pay. The estimated liability and reduction in revenue for dealer incentives is recorded at the time of sale. Subsequent adjustments to incentive estimates are possible because actual results may differ from these estimates if conditions dictate the need to enhance or reduce sales promotion and incentive programs or if dealer achievement or other items vary from historical trends. Accrued dealer incentives are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Payment received for the future sale of a boat to a customer is recognized as a customer deposit. Customer deposits are recognized as revenue when control over promised goods is transferred to the customer.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States “U.S. GAAP” requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Included in those estimates are assumptions about allowances for inventory obsolescence, useful life of fixed assets and warranty reserves.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value using the average cost method on a first-in first -out basis. Net realizable value is defined as sales price less cost of completion, disposable and transportation and a normal profit margin. Production costs, consisting of labor and overhead, are applied to ending finished goods inventories at a rate based on estimated production capacity. Excess production costs are charged to cost of products sold. Provisions are made when necessary to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the undiscounted net cash flows estimated to result from those assets over the remaining life to the assets’ net carrying amounts. If the estimated undiscounted net cash flows are less than the net carrying amount, the assets would be adjusted to their fair value, based on appraisal or the present value of the undiscounted net cash flows.
Product Warranty Costs
As required by FASB ASC Topic 460, Guarantees, we are including the following disclosure applicable to our product warranties.
We accrue for warranty costs based on the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty replacement products. The methodology used in determining the liability for warranty cost is based upon historical information and experience. Our warranty reserve is calculated as the gross sales multiplied by the historical warranty expense return rate.
30
Leases
Under Topic 842, we applied a dual approach to all leases whereby we are a lessee and classify leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by us. Lease classification is evaluated at the inception of the lease agreement.
Deferred Income Taxes and Valuation Allowance
We account for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that we will not realize tax assets through future operations.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC rules.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is collected, recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the SEC. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such a date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, related to not yet having retained sufficient staff or engaged sufficient outside consultants with appropriate experience in GAAP presentation, especially of complex instruments, to devise and implement effective disclosure controls and procedures over internal controls.
31
Remediation Plan
Management has developed and is executing a remediation plan to address the previously disclosed material weaknesses, due to inadequate staffing levels. We have retained a full-time Staff Accountant and a controller. We have also selected and implemented a robust operating system and we are utilizing the assistance of outside advisors where appropriate.
To remediate the existing material weaknesses, additional time is required to demonstrate the effectiveness of the remediation efforts. The material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. As of March 31, 2025, controls and procedures have been implemented to remediate the material weakness, however testing of controls continues.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than as set forth in this paragraph, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025 that has materially affected or is reasonable likely to materially affect our control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. Except as disclosed in in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, we are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following risks, together with all the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. If any of the following risks actually materializes, our operating results, financial condition and liquidity could be materially adversely affected. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the information disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, ”Risk Factors,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Any failure to meet the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market could result in a de-listing of our Common Stock.
The shares of our Common Stock are listed for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “VEEE.” If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market, such as the corporate governance requirements, the stockholder’s equity requirement, or the minimum closing bid price requirement, The Nasdaq Capital Market may take steps to de-list our Common Stock. Such a de-listing or even notification of failure to comply with such requirements would likely have a negative effect on the price of our Common Stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our Common Stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a de-listing, we would take actions to restore our compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our Common Stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price, improve the liquidity of our Common Stock, prevent our Common Stock from once again dropping below The Nasdaq Capital Market minimum bid price requirement, or prevent future non-compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s listing requirements.
32
On May 10, 2024, we received written notice from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department notifying us that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days (March 28, 2024 through May 9, 2024), our Common Stock did not maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), or the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. We were provided 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2024, to regain compliance, which deadline was subsequently extended to May 5, 2025. On April 4, 2025, we filed the Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-10, effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on April 7, 2025, and our Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on April 8, 2025. On April 28, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq stating that Nasdaq had determined that we now comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. However we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement in the future.
The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because our Common Stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, it is a covered security. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of covered securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. Further, if we were to be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market, our Common Stock would cease to be recognized as a covered security and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities.
There can be no assurance that our increased stock price following the Reverse Stock Split will remain at a price that will be sufficient in order to meet any continued requirements and policies of Nasdaq or that our common stock will remain listed on Nasdaq.
At our 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect, at the discretion of the Twin Vee Board of Directors, a reverse stock split at a ratio within a range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-20, with the ratio within such range to be determined at the discretion of our Board of Directors and included in a public announcement. On April 4, 2025, we filed the Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-10, effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on April 7, 2025, and our Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on April 8, 2025.
While Nasdaq rules do not impose a specific limit on the number of times a listed company may effect a reverse stock split to maintain or regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, Nasdaq has stated that a series of reverse stock splits may undermine investor confidence in securities listed on Nasdaq. Accordingly, if we fail to maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, Nasdaq may determine that it is not in the public interest to maintain the listing of our Common Stock, even if we should effect another reverse stock split for the purpose of regaining compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
In addition, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv) states that if a listed company that fails to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement after effecting one or more reverse stock splits over the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250 shares or more to one, then we are not eligible for a Compliance Period.
Accordingly, we may fail to maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price requirement or the other Nasdaq listing requirements. Any non-compliance may be costly, divert our management’s time and attention, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financing, and results of operation A delisting could substantially decrease trading in our common stock, adversely affect the market liquidity of the common stock as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws, materially adversely affect our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, if at all, and may result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, customers and employees and fewer business development opportunities. Additionally, the market price of our common stock may decline further, and stockholders may lose some or all of their investment.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, we incurred a loss from operations of $14,551,769 and a net loss of $14,009,906. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we incurred a loss from operations of $1,679,094 and a net loss of $1,610,240. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 we had accumulated deficits of $27,003,195 and $25,392,955, respectively. Our unaudited financial statement for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 were prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern; however, we have incurred significant losses from operations to date and we expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report are issued.
Despite our ongoing efforts to mitigate these conditions, there can be no assurance that our expenses will not continue to increase in future periods or that the cash generated from operations in future periods will be sufficient to satisfy our operating needs. Although we have classified $4,306,896 of building and land in Marion, North Carolina as an asset held for sale, the proceeds of which will help our liquidity, there can be no assurance that we will be able to sell the land and building in the next twelve months and if we do engage in such a sale, that the proceeds will be as expected. If we need to raise additional capital to fund our continued operations, there can be no assurance that funding will be available on acceptable terms on a timely basis, or at all. The various ways that we could raise capital carry potential risks. Any additional sources of financing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that may impact our ability to conduct our business. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms or at all, we may be unable to fill new orders and develop new products. As such, we cannot conclude that such plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report are filed with the SEC, and there is uncertainty regarding our ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate our business effectively, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue from operations and/or raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, we be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate efforts to expand our dealer network or develop new models and may be forced to cease operations or liquidate assets.
We depend on our network of independent dealers for our boats, face increasing competition for dealers, and have little control over their activities.
A significant portion of our sales are derived from our network of independent dealers. We typically manufacture our gas-powered boats based upon indications of interest received from dealers who are not contractually obligated to purchase any boats. While our dealers typically have purchased all of the boats for which they have provided us with indications of interest, it is possible that a dealer could choose not to purchase boats for which it has provided an indication of interest (e.g., if it were to have reached the credit limit on its floor plan), and as a result we once experienced, and in the future could experience, excess inventory and costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, two individual dealers each represented over 10% of our total sales, and together represented 54% of sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, three individual dealers each represented over 10% of our sales, and combined represented 49% of total sales. The loss of a significant dealer could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The number of dealers supporting our products and the quality of their marketing and servicing efforts are essential to our ability to generate sales. Competition for dealers among other boat manufacturers continues to increase based on the quality, price, value, and availability of the manufacturers’ products, the manufacturers’ attention to customer service, and the marketing support that the manufacturer provides to the dealers. We face intense competition from other boat manufacturers in attracting and retaining dealers, affecting our ability to attract or retain relationships with qualified and successful dealers. Although our management believes that the quality of our products in the performance sport boat industry should permit us to maintain our relationships with our dealers and our market share position, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain or improve our relationships with our dealers or our market share position. In addition, independent dealers in the boating industry have experienced significant consolidation in recent years, which could result in the loss of one or more of our dealers in the future if the surviving entity in any such consolidation purchases similar products from a competitor. A substantial deterioration in the number of dealers or the quality of our network of dealers would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The loss of one or a few dealers could have a material adverse effect on us.
A few dealers have in the past, and may in the future, account for a significant portion of our revenues in any one year or over a period of several consecutive years. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, two individual dealers represented over 10% of our total sales and combined represented 54% of total sales. The loss of business from a significant dealer could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We rely on third-party suppliers in the manufacturing of our boats.
We depend on third-party suppliers to provide components and raw materials essential to the construction of our boats. During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, we purchased all engines for our boats under supplier agreements with three vendors. While we believe that our relationships with our current suppliers are sufficient to provide the materials necessary to meet present production demand, we cannot assure you that these relationships will continue or that the quantity or quality of materials available from these suppliers will be sufficient to meet our future needs, irrespective of whether we successfully implement our growth strategy. We expect that our need for raw materials and supplies will increase. Our suppliers must be prepared to ramp up operations and, in many cases, hire additional workers and/or expand capacity in order to fulfill the orders placed by us and other customers. Operational and financial difficulties that our suppliers may face in the future could adversely affect their ability to supply us with the parts and components we need, which could significantly disrupt our operations.
We have identified weaknesses in our internal controls, and we cannot provide assurances that these weaknesses will be effectively remediated or that additional material weaknesses will not occur in the future.
As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The requirements of these rules and regulations continue to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time consuming and costly, and place significant strain on our personnel, systems and resources.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures, and internal control over financial reporting.
As of March 31, 2025, we do not yet have effective disclosure controls and procedures, or internal controls over all aspects of our financial reporting. We are continuing to develop and refine our disclosure controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we will file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and in accordance with GAAP. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. We will be required to expend time and resources to further improve our internal controls over financial reporting, including by expanding our staff. However, we cannot assure you that our internal control over financial reporting, as modified, will enable us to identify or avoid material weaknesses in the future.
We will be required to expend time and resources to further improve our internal controls over financial reporting, including by expanding our staff. However, we cannot assure you that our internal control over financial reporting, as modified, will enable us to identify or avoid material weaknesses in the future.
Management has developed and is executing a remediation plan to address the previously disclosed material weaknesses, due to inadequate staffing levels. We have retained a full-time Staff Accountant and a controller. We have also selected and implemented a robust operating system and we are utilizing the assistance of outside advisors where appropriate. We cannot assure you that management will be successful in locating and retaining appropriate candidates; that newly engaged staff or outside consultants will be successful in remedying material weaknesses thus far identified or identifying material weaknesses in the future; or that appropriate candidates will be located and retained prior to these deficiencies resulting in material and adverse effects on our business.
35
Our current controls and any new controls that we develop may become inadequate because of changes in conditions in our business, including increased complexity resulting from our international expansion. Further, weaknesses in our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting may be discovered in the future. Any failure to develop or maintain effective controls, or any difficulties encountered in their implementation or improvement, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations and may result in a restatement of our financial statements for prior periods. Any failure to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could also adversely affect the results of management reports and independent registered public accounting firm audits of our internal control over financial reporting that we will eventually be required to include in our periodic reports that will be filed with the SEC. Ineffective disclosure controls and procedures, and internal control over financial reporting could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial and other information, which would likely have a negative effect on the market price of our Common Stock.
Our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to audit the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until after we are no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. At such time, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which our internal control over financial reporting is documented, designed or operating. Any failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting could have a material and adverse effect on our business and operating results and cause a decline in the market price of our common stock.
We are currently, and may in the future be, subject to substantial litigation, regulatory actions, government investigations, proceedings and similar actions that could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.
We are currently, and may in the future be, subject to substantial litigation, regulatory actions, government investigations, proceedings and similar actions including matters related to commercial disputes, intellectual property, employment, securities laws, disclosures, whistleblower, environmental, tax, accounting, class action, and product liability, as well as trade, regulatory and other claims related to our business and our industry. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources, cause us to incur significant expenses or liability or require us to change our business practices. Because of the potential risks, expenses and uncertainties of litigation, we may, from time to time, settle disputes, even where we believe that we have meritorious claims or defenses. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, we cannot assure you that the results of any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.
On March 10, 2025, shareholders Nabeel Youseph and Marisa Hardyal-Youseph (“Plaintiffs”), who are former holders of common stock of Forza X1, Inc. (“Forza”), commenced an action in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, captioned Youseph, et al. v. Visconti, et al., Case No. 2025-0262, by filing a putative class action complaint (the “Complaint”) against Defendants Joseph Visconti, Kevin Schuyler, Neil Ross, Twin Vee PowerCats Co. and Twin Vee PowerCats, Inc. (collectively, “Defendants”), related to Forza’s merger with us seeking an unspecified award of damages, plus interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees. Plaintiffs’ Complaint asserts claims (1) against Defendants for breach of fiduciary duty in their capacities as controlling shareholders of Forza, (2) against Messrs. Visconti, Schuyler, and Ross for breach of fiduciary duty in their capacities as directors of Forza, and (3) against Mr. Visconti for breach of fiduciary duty in his capacity as an officer of Forza. Defendants intend to vigorously defending against the claims. At this time, we are unable to estimate the ultimate outcome of this matter.

These securities class actions, shareholder derivative actions and other current or future litigation matters may be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources, cause us to incur significant defense and settlement costs or liability. We intend to vigorously defend against all such claims. Because of the potential risks, expenses and uncertainties of litigation, as well as claims for indemnity from various of the parties concerned, we may from time to time, settle disputes, even where we believe that we have meritorious claims or defenses. While a certain amount of insurance coverage is available for expenses or losses associated with current or future lawsuits, this coverage may not be sufficient. Determining reserves for any litigation is a complex, fact-intensive process that is subject to judgment calls. It is possible that a resolution of one or more such proceedings could require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments, fines or penalties or to settle claims or proceedings, any of which could harm our business. Based on information currently available, we are unable to estimate reasonably a possible loss or range of possible losses, if any, with regard to the current securities class action; therefore, no litigation reserve has been recorded in our consolidated balance sheet. Although we plan to defend against the securities class actions, shareholder derivative actions and other lawsuits vigorously, we cannot assure that the results of these actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.
