Note 9 – Debt
 
Secured credit facility –
In September 2023, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement to open a credit facility with the maximum aggregate principal amount of $8,000,000 (the ABL). The maximum aggregate principal amount was reduced to $5,000,000 in 2026. Interest is accrued at the greater of (i) 12% and (ii) Prime Rate (6.75% as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025) plus 3.75% per annum. The ABL matures in September 2026 with an automatic renewal for one year if not terminated before 60 days before the termination date. The outstanding balance on the ABL was $2,928,161 and $3,277,034 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In August 2025, the Company breached a financial covenant which put the ABL into technical default.  Through the date of these financial statements, the breach has not affected the functionality of the facility and both parties are actively working to resolve the matter. The Company received a waiver of their default as of December 31, 2025.

 
Loans payable
– In May 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was established to provide economic relief to small businesses facing COVID-19-related economic hardships. In June 2020, the Company applied and received COVID relief funding for qualified small businesses under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) assistance program by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Per the terms of the EIDL agreement, the Company received total proceeds of $150,000. The loan matures in thirty years from the effective date of the loan and has a fixed interest rate of 3.75% per annum. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance was $160,389 and $160,296, inclusive of accrued interest, respectively. Interest expense for this loan was $2,286 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025.

In December 2022 and 2023, the Company obtained three Mezzanine Secured Notes with shareholders in an aggregate principal amount of $1,700,000, of which $500,000 was from a related party. The notes originally accrued interest at a rate of 15% for the first month and monthly thereafter based on a range of 12-14% per annum. The loans were past due but subsequently extended through July 2026. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the principal balance of Mezzanine Secured Notes was $200,000,
 
and $297,854 respectively, of which $97,854 was due to a related party as of December 31, 2025. The balance due to a related party was fully repaid in March 2026. In February 2026, the Company extinguished $276,475 of interest in exchange for the exercise of 65,509 shares of Common Stock warrants for $26,479 and 20,833 shares of Common Stock for $249,996. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the accrued interest balance of Mezzanine Secured Notes was $266,827 and $524,125, respectively; none of the accrued interest was due to a related party.
 
In April 2024, the Company issued a Secured Promissory Note with the principal balance of $2,500,000. The note originally accrued interest at $72,917 per month with default interest of $2,000 per day with original maturity in April 2025. The note was amended during 2025, to include reduced monthly payments, extension of the note, and settlement of all default and past due interest. As consideration, the Company transferred $1,000,000 of its investment at fair value and issued a $500,000 SAFE under the Company’s subsidiary Good Twin. The Note also contains a post-closing provision requiring the Company to transfer additional equity interests in Good Twin to the Lender if the Lender's ownership interest falls below ten percent (10%) upon SAFE conversion, with the fair market value of any such shares transferred applied as a dollar-for-dollar reduction to the outstanding principal balance. The Company determined this qualified as a debt modification, with the additional consideration charged to interest expense Additionally, in January 2026, the note was amended twice:
 
-
Amendment No. 3:
Lender extended maturity to June 30, 2027, cancelled monthly payments due February through April 2026, waived accrued late-payment fees, released a contingent equity-transfer remedy, and set a revised payment schedule of seventeen $
50,000 installments starting May 2026 plus a $
417,000
balloon at maturity. Because the Company was in payment default and the lender granted concessions it would not otherwise have granted, the Company accounted for the amendment as a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60. The total undiscounted cash flows under the restructured terms equal the pre-restructuring carrying amount, so no gain or loss was recognized. The effective interest rate on the restructured note is zero, and future cash payments will be applied entirely as reductions of the carrying amount.
 
-
Amendment No. 4:
Lender exercised a portion of a pre-existing warrant to purchase
102,425 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at the contractual exercise price of $
1.4644 per share. The $
150,000 aggregate exercise price was paid by cancelling $
150,000 of principal under the Note. After this amendment, the outstanding principal balance was $
1,067,000
.
 
The outstanding balance was $1,067,000 and $1,267,000 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company incurred $0 and $1,033,668 of interest and late fees on the note during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
