NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (“TLSS” or the “Company”) is a publicly-traded holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 25, 2008. Prior to mid-February 2024, when the Company ceased all remaining operations, its subsidiaries, provided a full suite of logistics and transportation services, specializing in ecommerce fulfillment, last mile deliveries, two-person home delivery, mid-mile, and long-haul services. The Company and its subsidiaries also operated several warehouse locations located in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. The subsidiaries of the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 include: Cougar Express, Inc. (“Cougar Express”) through date of deconsolidation of February 27, 2024; JFK Cartage, Inc. (“JFK Cartage”); Severance Trucking Co., Inc. (“Severance Trucking”); Severance Warehousing, Inc. (“Severance Warehouse”); McGrath Trailer Leasing, Inc. (“McGrath”, and together with Severance Trucking and Severance Warehouse, hereinafter, “Severance”); TLSS Acquisition, Inc. (“TLSSA”); TLSS Operations Holding Company, Inc. (“TLSS Ops”); Shyp CX, Inc. (“Shyp CX”); Shyp FX, Inc. (“Shyp FX”); TLSS-CE, Inc. (“TLSS-CE”); ; and TLSS-STI, Inc. (“TLSS-STI”).

Prior to ceasing operations, the Company’s historical business growth was primarily through a growth by acquisition strategy, as described below.

On November 13, 2020, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Shyp FX under the laws of the State of New Jersey. On January 15, 2021, through Shyp FX, the Company executed an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Double D Trucking, Inc., a northern New Jersey-based logistics provider specializing in servicing Federal Express over the past 25 years (“DDTI”), including last-mile delivery services using vans and box trucks. On April 28, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party to sell substantially all of Shyp FX’s assets and specific liabilities in all-cash transactions that closed in June 2022. Shyp FX is inactive.

On November 16, 2020, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, TLSSA under the laws of the State of Delaware. On March 24, 2021, TLSSA acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Cougar Express, a New York-based full-service logistics provider specializing in pickup, warehousing, and delivery services in the tri-state area. On February 27, 2024, Cougar Express filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition in the State of New York under the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Cougar Bankruptcy”), assigning all of the Cougar Express assets to Mr. Andrew M. Thaler, Esq., as Trustee (the “Cougar Express Trustee”) for liquidation and unwinding of the business. The Cougar Express Trustee has been charged with liquidating the assets for the benefit of the Cougar Express creditors pursuant to the relevant provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the Cougar Bankruptcy, the Cougar Express Trustee assumed all authority to manage Cougar Express. Additionally, as of February 27, 2024, Cougar Express no longer conducts any business and is not permitted by the Cougar Express Trustee to conduct any business. For these reasons, effective February 27, 2024, the Company relinquished control of Cougar Express. Therefore, the Company deconsolidated Cougar Express effective with the filing of the Cougar Bankruptcy on February 27, 2024.

On February 21, 2021, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Shyp CX under the laws of the State of New York. Shyp CX does not engage in any revenue-generating operations and is inactive.

On August 4, 2022, Cougar Express closed on its acquisition of all outstanding stock of JFK Cartage, a New York-based full-service logistics provider specializing in pickup, warehousing, and delivery services in the tri-state area. Joan Ton, the sole shareholder of JFK Cartage, from whom the shares were acquired, is an unrelated party. The effective date of the acquisition was July 31, 2022. In February 2024, due to lack of working capital to conduct its business, JFK Cartage ceased its operations and no longer conducts any business, and all of its assets of the Company were voluntarily conveyed to the Cougar Express Trustee. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, all activities and balances of JFK Cartage are included as part of discontinued operations on the consolidated financial statements. As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, TLSS-CE, which owns 100% of the stock of Cougar Express, has not filed for bankruptcy.

Effective February 3, 2023, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, TLSS-STI, closed on an acquisition of all outstanding stock of each of Severance Trucking, Severance Warehouse and McGrath, which together, offered less-than-truckload (LTL) trucking services throughout New England, with an effective date as of the close of business on January 31, 2023. The sellers of the stock of each entity were Kathryn Boyd, Clyde Severance, and Robert Severance, all individuals (the “Severance Sellers”). None of the Severance Sellers were affiliated with the Company or its affiliates (See Note 3). In February 2024, due to lack of working capital to conduct its business, Severance ceased its operations and no longer conducts any business, and all fixed assets of the Company were voluntarily surrendered to the Severance Sellers. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, all activities and balances of Severance are included as part of discontinued operations on the consolidated financial statements. As of the date of the issuance of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Severance entities have not filed for bankruptcy.

On May 31, 2023, the Company formed TLSS Ops and TLSS-CE, companies organized under the laws of Delaware. Simultaneous with the formation of these entities, Cougar Express became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLSS-CE; Severance Warehousing and McGrath became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Severance Trucking; Severance Trucking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLSS-STI; and each of TLSS-CE, TLSS-STI and TLSS-FC became wholly-owned subsidiaries of TLSS Ops. Other than the TLSS parent company, all entities are included as part of discontinued operations on the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

On February 16, 2024, Severance Trucking, along with Cougar Express and JFK Cartage, ceased all operations and, as a result, all remaining employees of Cougar Express and Severance Trucking were laid off as of February 16, 2024. On February 29, 2024, all remaining support staff, employed by TLSS Ops, were laid off.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 AND 2024

(Unaudited)

Subsequent to the cessation of all of the Company’s revenue generating operations in February 2024 and through the date of the issuance of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company continues to remain insolvent and as a result, was unable to timely meet its annual and quarterly periodic reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “34 Act”), for 2024. The Company obtained financing to enable it to complete the preparation and review these interim financial statements and timely file this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (this “Quarterly Report”); however, the Company will require additional financing to fund the necessary costs related to the preparation and filing of one or more of the additional periodic reports due with respect to the 2025 calendar year.

In addition, we are also evaluating a possible restructuring of our remaining existing debts and obligations, as well as assessing the possibility of replacing our discontinued businesses and/or entering into new line(s) of business, whether by acquisition or otherwise. However, there can be no assurance that we will, in fact, be able to replace our former business and/or enter into new line(s) of business, or to do so profitably.
