Business

We operate as a multi-disciplined parent corporation across four primary business sectors: FinTech Services, Financial Services, E-Commerce & Mobile Technology, and Health and Wellness. Our operations are conducted through wholly owned subsidiaries and joint ventures that provide specialized financing products, technology-driven solutions, and consumer wellness offerings.

 

Agoge Global USA, Inc. is a fintech company revolutionizing cross-border trade for Brazilian importers by offering staged financing and automated payment solutions. Through a joint venture with Brazil’s WeDev Group, Agoge provides a proprietary platform that simplifies and accelerates invoice payments, customs clearance, and regulatory compliance. The system reduces costly delays, lowers transaction fees, and improves cash flow by enabling importers to pay suppliers, freight, and customs fees in stages—giving them time to sell goods before loans mature. Positioned in a $252B market, Agoge is targeting small-to-midsize importers across high-demand sectors and is seeking debt financing to scale its platform and meet growing client demand.

 

Sparta’s subsidiary, Sparta Crypto, Inc., www.SpartaCrypto.com, was established in September 2020, and is in the process of completing a proprietary state-of-the-art platform designed to connect users of widely adopted digital currencies with sellers of various goods and services.

Sparta’s Municipal Finance program is also currently available to all nonprofit organizations, institutions and entities. All nonprofit organizations which adhere to IRS guidelines, including 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code, are eligible. Both public nonprofits, also known as public charities, supported with publicly collected funds, and private nonprofits, also known as private foundations supported by an individual or business entity, qualify for the program.

 

Consumers, retailers, municipals, nonprofits, auction houses, banks, and insurance companies scrutinize title history reports for the vital information needed and factored into crucial business decisions affecting the bottom line. Vehicle History Reports are a staple of Sparta’s E-Commerce Technology subsidiary iMobile Solutions, Inc. Whether a vehicle is intended for business or recreational use, Sparta’s Vehicle History Reports are highly regarded for accuracy and completeness. They have been sold across all 50 states and in 62 countries worldwide.

They include Cyclechex (Motorcycle History Reports at www.cyclechex.com), RVchex (Recreational Vehicle History Reports at www.rvchex.com), and Truckchex (Heavy Duty Truck History Reports at www.truckchex.com).

 

The Company’s E-Commerce and Mobile Technology subsidiary name change to iMobile Solutions, Inc., from Specialty Reports, Inc., in 2016, signifies its ever-broadening service offerings in the evolving technology landscape.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2026, and 2025 have been prepared by the Company according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Form 10-K and Regulation S-K. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present the operating results for the respective periods fairly. The Company believes that the disclosures provided are adequate to make the information presented accurate.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The third-party ownership of the Company’s subsidiary is accounted for as noncontrolling interest in the consolidated financial statements. Changes in the noncontrolling interest are reported in the statement of stockholders’ deficit.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue utilizing the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company acts as the principal in its revenue transactions as it is the primary obligor.

 

The Company’s main source of revenue is comprised of the following:

 

  Information Technology-Sparta creates mobile applications (mobile apps) for small and medium-size businesses under the tradename iMobileApp. Sparta provides Vehicle Title History Reports (Cyclechex.com, RVchex.com and Truckchex.com) containing valuable information for consumers, dealers, insurers, auction houses, and lenders including verifying the specific make, model, and year of a pre-owned vehicle, as well as Brands that have been placed on titles. Revenues from History Reports are typically recognized upon delivery/download. Prepayments received from customers before delivery (if any) are recognized as deferred revenue and recognized upon delivery. The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due before our performance, including refundable amounts.

 

  Wellness products- Our Wellness products feature high quality dietary supplements, including vitamins and minerals, such as, Iodine for children and adults, Boron, Copper/Zinc/Selenium, and Magnesium Complex. In addition to our B to C website: www.newworldhealthbrands.com, our Wellness products are also offered on various on-line marketplaces. Revenues from New World Health Brands products are generally recognized upon delivery.

 

  Merchant financing - Sparta offers Brazilian importers staged financing and automated payment solutions. The system reduces costly delays, lowers transaction fees, and improves cash flow by enabling importers to pay suppliers, freight, and customs fees in stages—giving them time to sell goods before loans mature. Revenues from merchant financing is recognized monthly based on the outstanding balance of the loans.

 

The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by revenue source:

 

 SCHEDULE OF DISAGGREGATION REVENUE 

       
   For the Years Ended April 30, 
   2026   2025 
Information Technology  $141,138   $118,266 
Wellness products   30,916    37,767 
Merchant financing   173,258    79,511 
Total  $345,312   $235,544 

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

All liquid investments with three months or less maturity are cash equivalents for the accompanying financial statements.

 

Website Development Costs

 

The Company recognizes website development costs in accordance with ASC 350-50, “Accounting for Website Development Costs.” As such, the Company expenses all costs incurred relate to the planning and post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company adopted ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”).” ASC 820 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets the lowest priority to unobservable inputs to fair value measurements of certain assets and Liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

 

Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
     
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
     
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value measurements. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques based on significant unobservable inputs, as well as management judgments or estimates that are significant to valuation.

 

This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data when available and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. Observable inputs may not always be available for some products or in certain market conditions.

 

Income Taxes

 

We utilize ASC 740 “Income Taxes” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at year-end based on enacted laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.

 

 

The Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the financial statements only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Our practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

 

We use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options. The stock-based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.

 

Inventories

 

The Company’s inventories represent finished goods, consist of products available for sale and are accounted for using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory consists of finished goods for the Company’s New World Health Brands business.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives of major depreciable assets are as follows:

 

 

Leasehold improvements   3 years 
Furniture and fixtures   7 years 
Website costs   3 years 
Computer Equipment   5 years 

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high quality credit institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

The Company uses ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share,” for calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

The Company has 34,028,221 and 33,612,875 shares of common classified as to be issued at April 30, 2026, and April 30, 2025, respectively included on the balance sheet were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would reduce net loss per share.

 

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

The Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial instruments as of April 30, 2026, and April 30, 2025, which consist of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the Company’s common stock. It determined that such derivatives meet the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815.

 

ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed conventional, as described.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the derivative liabilities of convertible notes using a Binomial model option-pricing model with the following assumptions, market value of common stock on measurement date, risk free interest rate, expected volatility, expected dividend yields and instrument lives in years.

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

 

The Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial instruments as of April 30, 2026, and April 30, 2025, which consist of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the Company’s common stock and determined that such derivatives meet the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815.

 

ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as described.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform with prior periods’ data to the current presentation. These reclassifications did not affect reported losses.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements require public companies to disclose the impact of new standards on their financial statements, including details about the standard, the adoption date, method of adoption, and expected effects. These disclosures help investors understand how changes in accounting principles will affect a company’s financial performance and position.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update expand segment disclosure requirements, including new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment among other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this standard is on a modified retrospective basis and had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows or net income per share. As of 2026 and 2025 the Company had one reporting segment, all revenue is reported under this segment Sparta Commercial Services, Inc.

 

 

Other accounting standards and amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued and have future effective dates are not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
