ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion
should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this Report and
in our other filings with the SEC. The following discussion may contain predictions, estimates, and other forward-looking statements that
involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” in our 2025 Annual Report and
elsewhere in this Report. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future performance suggested below.

Overview

We are a robotics company
focused on the development of embodied AI systems for manufacturing, retail, hospitality, and other sectors. We develop proprietary hardware
and software that employ the latest robotics and AI innovations. Our goal is to deploy robotics at scale in business operations across
our target markets.

Recent Developments

On January 27, 2026, we entered
into the Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to issue and sell to the investor,
and the investor agreed to purchase from us, in the Private Placement, 8,500,000 shares of our Class B common stock, at a purchase price
of $4.55 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $38,675,000, prior to deducting placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses
payable by us. The Private Placement closed on January 29, 2026. The net proceeds from the Private Placement were approximately $36.2
million, after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We intend to use the net proceeds for working
capital, general corporate purposes, including the further development of our product capabilities, and the procurement of inventory,
specifically for robotic hardware.

Key Business Highlights for the First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026

Strategic and Operational
Milestones

RaaS Contract Acceleration: Successfully expanded our Robots-as-a-Service (RaaS) footprint, demonstrating continued market adoption of our recurring revenue model. This growth validates our long-term strategy to shift away from one-time hardware sales toward a high-quality, predictable revenue base.
Continued Investment in Research and Development: During the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, we continued to invest in research and development focused on artificial intelligence, system autonomy, and intelligent human-machine interaction across our robotic platforms. As a member of the NVIDIA Connect program, we have continued to utilize NVIDIA-based AI computing platforms and robotics software frameworks to enhance real-time perception, decision-making, and on-device autonomy.
In addition, during the quarter, we continued development activities under a previously disclosed non-commercial technology collaboration agreement with Microsoft Corporation through the Microsoft AI Co-Innovation Lab, supporting the evaluation and development of certain artificial intelligence workflows. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Microsoft published a blog post on its website referencing this engagement.
These efforts are intended to enhance product functionality and support scalable commercial deployment across multiple industry verticals.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Expansion of Hospitality Management Segment (AlphaMax): Advanced the strategic rollout of our proprietary hospitality concepts by commencing development of a new Clouffee and Tea location in the San Francisco Financial District. Site preparation and operational workflows are currently in progress, with the location scheduled to officially commence operations in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Financial and Capital Milestones

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $(8.4) million for the quarter, compared to $(3.5) million in the prior year period. Excluding stock-based compensation expenses, the Adjusted Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders was $(0.1 million), a substantial improvement compared to the $(3.5 million) Adjusted Net Loss in the prior year period. On a per-share basis, the Adjusted Basic and Diluted Net Loss was $0.00, compared to $(0.04) per share in the prior year quarter.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Balance Sheet Strengthening: We successfully utilized our ATM offering program and exercise of warrants to raise $46.5 million in gross proceeds, substantially strengthening our liquidity and providing capital to accelerate the build-out of the RaaS asset fleet. A portion of these proceeds was generated through a direct sale of shares to a large institutional investor under the ATM program.

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Business
and Results of Operations

The following trends and
uncertainties either affected our financial performance historically or are likely to impact our results of operations in the future:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
As our robotic products’ market potential is seen by others, more competitors could enter the market, which may lead to price competition and a decline in profit margins;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
A recession could lead to a decline in customer demand in our robotic products and services;
Some of the products are currently assembled by suppliers in China, which may delay the supply if they are affected by international shipping, epidemic, geopolitical conflicts and other factors;
We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in the future as a result of increased costs associated with being a public company. These increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees to outside consultants, attorneys, and accountants, and personnel-related stock-based compensation costs, among other expenses, and, in the case of public company-related expenses, services associated with strengthening our internal control over financial reporting, maintaining compliance with Nasdaq listing and SEC reporting requirements, director and officer liability insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs, among other expenses; and
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Inflationary pressures are also a concern as it is difficult to make reliable projections for the cost of components. This means profit margins could be affected, and our pricing would need to be re-evaluated on a regular basis.

three months ended December 31, 2024.

This decrease was primarily
due to a reduction in one-time product sales and other revenue, partially offset by significant growth in our recurring revenue streams,
including leasing, services, and RaaS.

Business Model Transition and Revenue
Recognition

Historically, we generated revenue
primarily through Product Revenue (outright hardware sales), resulting in immediate revenue and immediate Cost of Revenue recognition.

During fiscal 2025, we fundamentally shifted our approach to emphasize
long-term relationships and recurring revenue through leasing and service arrangements.

This strategic change significantly
impacts the financial statements:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
1.Revenue: Upfront product revenue is reduced.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
2.Assets: The cost of leased robots is capitalized as a long-term asset (Assets held for Lease), not immediately expensed.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
3.Profitability: This results in a materially lower Cost of Revenue and an expanded Gross Margin, as the cost is recognized over the lease term via depreciation instead of immediate Cost of Goods Sold.

The decrease in Product Sale revenue
for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, was directly attributable to our strategic focus on
reducing one-time hardware transactions in favor of recurring contracts. This activity aligns with our long-term revenue strategy.

Our long-term focus remains on expanding recurring revenue through service,
rental, and leasing arrangements. The increases in Leasing, Service, and RaaS revenue during the three months ended December 31, 2025,
were driven by the successful deployment of robots under these recurring models. Underlying adoption of these recurring arrangements continues
to increase, validating our transition away from capital-intensive direct sales.

Recent Developments

New Product Launch - Dex Humanoid Robot

October 28, 2025, we announced
Dex, our next-generation humanoid robot. Built on the NVIDIA Jetson Thor platform, Dex integrates a comprehensive suite of advanced AI
capabilities designed to transform the industrial workforce. With sophisticated perception and manipulation abilities, Dex can interact
with and operate in real-world environments, enabling it to perform tasks once considered too complex to automate.

Dex is expected to be deployment-ready
for industrial applications by mid-2026, and we anticipate that it will become a significant driver of the company’s future growth.

R&D Collaboration

Subsequent to September 30,
2025, we entered into a non-commercial technology collaboration agreement with Microsoft Corporation through the Microsoft AI
Co-Innovation Lab to support the evaluation and development of certain artificial intelligence workflows.

Subsequent Capital Raise – At-The-Market
Offering

Subsequent to September
30, 2025, we utilized our at-the-market offering program (the “September ATM”) to issue and sell an aggregate of 15,156,685
shares of Class B common stock, receiving aggregate gross proceeds of $71,622,886.31. A portion of such proceeds was generated through
a direct sale of shares to a large institutional investor under the September ATM. We intend to use the proceeds to accelerate the build-out
of our RaaS asset fleet.

Charter Amendment

On November 10, 2025, we filed an Articles of Amendment to our Articles
of Incorporation, as amended, with the Nevada Secretary of State to effect an increase the number of shares of Class B common stock that
we are authorized to issue from 200,000,000 to 1,000,000,000, effective upon filing.

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Business
and Results of Operations

The following trends and
uncertainties either affected our financial performance historically or are likely to impact our results of operations in the future:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
As our robotic products’ market potential is seen by others, more competitors could enter the market, which may lead to price competition and a decline in profit margins;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
A recession could lead to a decline in customer demand in our robotic products and services;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Some of the products are currently assembled by suppliers in China, which may delay the supply if they are affected by international shipping, epidemic, geopolitical conflicts and other factors;

41

Column 1Column 2Column 3
We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in the future as a result of increased costs associated with being a public company. These increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees to outside consultants, attorneys, and accountants, and personnel-related stock-based compensation costs, among other expenses, and, in the case of public company-related expenses, services associated with strengthening our internal control over financial reporting, maintaining compliance with Nasdaq listing and SEC reporting requirements, director and officer liability insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs, among other expenses.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Inflationary pressures are also a concern as it is difficult to make reliable projections for the cost of components. This means profit margins could be affected, and our pricing would need to re-evaluated on a regular basis.

Revenue

Revenue, net, increased by
$805 thousand, or approximately 19.0%, from $4,240 thousand for the year ended September 30, 2024, to $5,045 thousand for the year ended
September 30, 2025.

This significant
full-year growth demonstrates the effectiveness of our ongoing strategic initiatives and indicates a successful ramp-up in the latter
half of the fiscal year. This performance is consistent with the anticipated long-term benefits of our strategic shift towards a leasing
and recurring revenue model, which is designed to build a more stable and predictable revenue foundation. The overall increase, despite
transitional challenges, reflects strong underlying customer demand for our robotics solutions.

Business Model Transition and Revenue
Recognition

Historically, we generated revenue
primarily through Product Revenue (outright hardware sales), resulting in immediate revenue and immediate Cost of Revenue recognition.

During fiscal 2025, the Company fundamentally
shifted its approach to emphasize long-term relationships and recurring revenue through leasing and service arrangements.

This strategic change significantly
impacts the financial statements:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
1.Revenue: Upfront product revenue is reduced.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
2.Assets: The cost of leased robots is capitalized as a long-term asset (Assets held for Lease), not immediately expensed.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
3.Profitability: This results in a materially lower Cost of Revenue and an expanded Gross Margin, as the cost is recognized over the lease term via depreciation instead of immediate Cost of Goods Sold.

The increase in Product Sale percentage
in fiscal 2025 was primarily attributable to occasional, non-recurring customer orders for earlier-generation delivery robotic systems,
which temporarily increased one-time product sales. This activity does not reflect a shift in our long-term revenue strategy.

Our long-term focus remains on expanding
recurring revenue through service, rental, and leasing arrangements. The relative decreases in Service/Rental Sale and Leasing percentages
in fiscal 2025 compared to fiscal 2024 were largely attributable to the impact of these non-recurring product sales and certain prior-year
revenue reclassifications. Excluding these items, underlying adoption of recurring arrangements continues to increase.

Detailed Revenue Streams and Recognition

The Company’s revenue is classified
into four primary streams:

1. Product Revenue

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Description: Revenue from traditional, outright sales of hardware where the customer takes ownership.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Recognition: Recognized at a point in time (transfer of control, per ASC 606).
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Impact: The 2025 increase was driven by increased demand for new robot models and strategic inventory management, but the mix will shift away from this stream as the RaaS model matures.

43

2. Leasing/Service/Rental Revenue

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Description: Revenue from short-term rentals, maintenance contracts, subscriptions, and installation services.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Recognition: Recognized over time or at a point in time, based on contract specifics.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Impact: This category reflects the reclassified rental income from 2024. Organic growth is expected to continue as the total installed unit base expands, increasing the high-margin service revenue stream.

3. RaaS Revenue

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Description: Revenue from long-term operating agreements for the robotics fleet.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Recognition: Recognized over the term of the lease agreement.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Impact: While showing a reported decrease due to a prior-period reclassification adjustment, this stream represents the primary long-term growth engine. Its accelerated adoption will drive predictable, recurring revenue growth, which is central to our long-term value creation strategy.

4. AlphaMax (Cloutea)

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Description: Revenue generated from the AlphaMax subsidiary, which operates as a hospitality management company overseeing various cafes and restaurants.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Recognition: Recognized according to the performance obligations outlined in the specific management or operating contracts.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Impact: This segment contributed $602 thousand in total revenue in 2025. This revenue is non-robotics related, and the performance of this segment is subject to factors impacting the broader hospitality and restaurant industry.

Strategic Initiatives and Growth Channels

The following initiatives demonstrate
the Company’s active execution of its long-term growth and franchise model strategy:

Expansion of Robotic Restaurant Locations
in Walmart Stores

The Company is actively executing
a strategic plan to integrate its robotics technology into high-traffic retail environments through franchise agreements.

On October 17, 2024, the Company announced
plans to launch a total of 20 robotic restaurant locations within Walmart stores across the country. This initiative is designed to demonstrate
the scalability and reliability of our technology in a demanding, quick-service retail setting, thereby generating both recurring revenue
and acting as a high-visibility marketing platform. As of the date of this report, two locations within Walmart stores are currently
in operation. We intend to prudently evaluate the performance of these existing locations and, based on operating results, selectively
pursue potential collaboration opportunities at additional locations.

Clouffee & Tea Restaurant Brand

Clouffee & Tea is our first self-owned
restaurant brand, designed to showcase our robotics-as-a-service model directly to consumers. The concept seamlessly blends innovative
robotic technology with a vibrant coffee and tea culture to create an engaging customer experience.

Strategic Purpose:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Scalable Franchise Blueprint: The robotic operation presents a uniquely scalable franchise model. Clouffee & Tea will serve as a successful blueprint for integrating robotics into coffee and tea shop operations, which the Company intends to replicate through future franchising efforts.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Technological Application and Iteration: Beyond redefining the beverage experience, Clouffee & Tea functions as a dynamic platform for technological application. It allows us to utilize real-world, high-volume scenarios for testing new robotic technologies and iterating on system performance.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Revenue Growth Channel: The brand opens an additional revenue channel for the Company. Clouffee & Tea opened its inaugural franchise store in Las Vegas, Nevada, in January 2025, adding another dimension to our growth strategy and enhancing the recurring revenue profile of the AlphaMax segment.

44

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue, net, increased
by $236 thousand, or approximately 15.5%, from $1,520 thousand in 2024 to $1,756 thousand in 2025. This increase was driven by an overall
increase in net revenue of $805 thousand and significant growth in Product Revenue.

Depreciation of Rental Assets:
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, depreciation expense attributable to our RaaS fleet was $79 thousand. We expect this non-cash
expense to increase in future periods as our installed base of leased robots expands, creating a predictable cost structure that scales
with recurring revenue.We continue to focus on optimizing our manufacturing and supply chain processes to maintain a competitive cost
structure.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased by
$569 thousand, or approximately 20.9%, from $2,720 thousand in 2024 to $3,289 thousand in 2025.

The resulting expansion of our gross margin
is a direct reflection of the full-year impact of the strategic shift to a RaaS model. By capitalizing the cost of leased assets rather
than recognizing them as immediate cost of goods sold, our gross margin profile has significantly improved, leading to a higher gross
profit despite the ongoing business model transition.

We anticipate that this
trend of improved gross margin will continue as the recurring revenue from our leasing portfolio matures.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development
(R&D) expenses increased by $411 thousand, or approximately 20.3%, from $2,021 thousand in 2024 to $2,432 thousand in 2025. This
increased investment demonstrates our commitment to maintaining technological leadership and fueling future growth. The increase is primarily
attributable to:

Increased Headcount and
Compensation: Higher personnel costs, including the hiring of specialized engineers, data scientists, and AI developers necessary to
support complex platform upgrades and new product development like ADAM and TITAN. We also undertook compensation adjustments to ensure
retention of key talent in a competitive market.

New Product Development
and Platform Upgrades: Significant expenses related to the development and successful launch of the DEX product line and substantial
core robotics platform enhancements. This includes costs for prototyping, testing environments, and integration of cutting-edge components.

Technology Licensing and
Infrastructure: Increased investment in new R&D equipment, advanced simulation software licenses, and expanded cloud computing services
necessary for concurrent and rapid product development cycles. This infrastructure spending is designed to shorten time-to-market for
future iterations.

Our sustained R&D investment
is critical to maintaining a long-term competitive advantage, driving product innovation, and expanding the functional capabilities of
our robotics fleet.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing (S&M)
expenses decreased by $53 thousand, or approximately 4.0%, from $1,315 thousand in 2024 to $1,262 thousand in 2025. This slight decrease,
despite an overall increase in net revenue, is primarily the result of:

Strategic Shift Efficiency:
A reduced need for high-cost, upfront sales campaigns typically associated with achieving single large product sales. Resources were
strategically reallocated to focus on the lower-cost, recurring customer acquisition model required for leasing. The marketing focus
shifted from volume-based lead generation to quality, relationship-based lead nurturing.

45

Marketing Optimization and
Digital Focus: Successful optimization of digital marketing channels, yielding better results at a lower cost-per-acquisition. We reduced
expenditures on less effective traditional advertising formats while increasing investment in targeted digital platforms and content
marketing efforts, resulting in a more efficient spend.

We anticipate S&M expenses
to remain relatively stable as a percentage of revenue in the near term as we balance recurring revenue growth with the need for efficient
new customer acquisition.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative
(G&A) expenses increased dramatically by $11,082 thousand, or approximately 171.6%, from $6,457 thousand in 2024 to $17,539 thousand
in 2025. This significant surge is primarily attributed to non-recurring and foundational investments required to transition the Company
into a scalable public enterprise:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Public Company Readiness and Compliance Costs: The increase primarily reflects incremental legal, audit, and consulting costs associated with ongoing SEC reporting, SOX compliance, and expanded internal control requirements as a public company.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Increased D&O Insurance Premiums: We incurred a material increase in premiums for our Directors and Officers (D&O) liability insurance. This increase reflects broader market pricing trends for newly public companies and the necessity of securing higher coverage limits to attract and retain qualified independent directors. We expect these premium costs to remain a recurring component of our operating expenses.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Expanded Infrastructure and Staffing: A large portion of the expenditure supported essential corporate infrastructure expansion and personnel scaling. This includes costs related to the purchase of the new corporate headquarters and the subsequent move, which incurred significant one-time expenses for facility build-out, IT integration, and relocation services. Crucially, the increase reflects the necessary expansion of the back-office staff—specifically Finance, Legal, and Human Resources—to support the increased complexity of public reporting and the accelerated growth rate of the business, particularly the compliance demands of the leasing portfolio.

Investment Income

Investment income increased
from $13 thousand in fiscal 2024 to $2,177 thousand in fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher average cash and investment balances resulting
from funds received through various financing transactions, as discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense, net, decreased
from $762 thousand in fiscal 2024 to $83 thousand in fiscal 2025, primarily due to the repayment of outstanding interest-bearing debt
during the fiscal year.

Income Tax Benefit/(Expense)

Income
tax expense for the year was $12 thousand, compared to an income tax expense of $318 thousand in 2024, this
is primarily driven by the removal of deferred tax benefits in 2024, management determined that it is more likely than not that the Company
will be unable to realize the benefits of these deductible temporary differences in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, which
consist of cash on hand and short-term investments that are readily convertible to cash. As of September 30, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents
totaled $193.6 million. This represents a significant increase from $14.6 million at the end of the prior fiscal year. The substantial
increase in our cash position is primarily attributable to the net proceeds of $219.8 million received from issuance of shares of Class
B common stock, and the net proceeds of $16.3 million received from the exercise and issuance of warrants. These proceeds significantly
strengthened our balance sheet and provided us with financial flexibility to invest in our growth initiatives, including expanding our
R&D team, purchase of property and equipment to support our expanding operations. This increase was partially offset by cash used
in operating activities, primarily due to our net loss and investments in working capital.

During the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2025, the Company raised capital through three at-the-market offering agreements. On May 16,
2025, the Company entered into the May ATM Agreement with Rodman & Renshaw LLC, H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, and BTIG, LLC. Under this
agreement, the Company issued and sold 45,636,983 shares of Class B common stock, generating gross proceeds of $99,998,023.72. On August
28, 2025, the Company entered into the August ATM Agreement with Rodman & Renshaw LLC and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, which effectively
replaced the May ATM Agreement. The Company issued and sold 27,322,000 shares of Class B common stock under this agreement, generating
gross proceeds of $99,995,480.96. On September 23, 2025, the Company entered into the September ATM Agreement with Rodman & Renshaw
LLC and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC for an aggregate offering price of up to $1.0 billion. During the fiscal year ended September
30, 2025, the Company issued and sold 6,282,472 shares under this agreement, generating gross proceeds of $26,773,037.95. For more information on the at-the-market offering agreements, please see “ITEM 1. Business –
Material Contracts – ATM Agreements.”

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

See Note 2 to our audited
financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management
bases its estimates on historical experience, market and other conditions, and various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable.
See Note 2 to our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information.

JOBS Act

Section 107 of the JOBS
Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section
7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company”
can delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have
elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period.

For as long as we remain
an “emerging growth company” under the recently enacted JOBS Act, we will, among other things:

be exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires that our independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
be permitted to omit the detailed compensation discussion and analysis from proxy statements and reports filed under the Exchange Act and instead provide a reduced level of disclosure concerning executive compensation; and
Column 1Column 2Column 3
be exempt from any rules that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report on the financial statements.

Although we are still evaluating
the JOBS Act, we currently intend to take advantage of some or all of the reduced regulatory and reporting requirements that will be
available to us so long as we qualify as an “emerging growth company,” including the extension of time to comply with new
or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b) of the JOBS Act. Among other things, this means that our independent
registered public accounting firm will not be required to provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting so long as we qualify as an emerging growth company, which may increase the risk that weaknesses or deficiencies
in our internal control over financial reporting go undetected. Likewise, so long as we qualify as an emerging growth company, we may
elect not to provide you with certain information, including certain financial information and certain information regarding compensation
of our executive officers, that we would otherwise have been required to provide in filings we make with the SEC, which may make it more
difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our company. As a result, investor confidence in our company and the market
price of our common stock may be materially and adversely affected.

Column 1Column 2Column 3
Continued Investment in Research and Development: Richtech Robotics remains dedicated to innovation and technological advancement, as evidenced by the increase in research and development expenses during fiscal year 2024. These investments are focused on expanding our product portfolio, enhancing existing offerings, and maintaining our competitive edge in the dynamic robotics market.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Expansion of Sales and Marketing Efforts: To support the RaaS model and drive customer acquisition, the Company has significantly increased its investment in sales and marketing initiatives. These efforts are crucial for educating potential customers about the benefits of leasing robotics solutions, building brand awareness, and cultivating new customer relationships.

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Business and
Results of Operations

The following trends and
uncertainties either affected our financial performance historically or are likely to impact our results of operations in the future:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
As our robotic products market potential is seen by others, more competitors enter the market, which will lead to price competition and a decline in profit margins;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
A recession will lead to a decline in customer demand in our robotic products and services;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Some of the products are currently assembled by suppliers in China, which may delay the supply if they are affected by international shipping, epidemic, geopolitical conflicts and other factors;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in the future as a result of increased costs associated with being a public company. These increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees to outside consultants, attorneys, and accountants, and personnel-related stock-based compensation costs, among other expenses, and, in the case of public company-related expenses, services associated with strengthening our internal control over financial reporting, maintaining compliance with Nasdaq listing and SEC reporting requirements, director and officer liability insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs, among other expenses.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Inflationary pressures are also a concern as it is difficult to make reliable projections for the cost of components. This means profit margins could be affected, and our pricing would need to re-evaluated on a regular basis.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
The rising interest rate will lead to a higher borrowing cost. It will increase our cost for any potential future borrowing and financing activities. Higher interest rates reduce consumer spending and business investment, causing the economy to contract, which will impact our business and will reduce our customers’ purchasing power.

Revenue

The total revenue
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, was $4,240 thousand and $8,759 thousand, respectively. The $4,519 thousand decrease,
or 51%, for fiscal year 2024 is primarily attributed to the strategic transition to the RaaS model, which impacts the timing of revenue
recognition. While this transition may initially reduce revenue, it is expected to generate a more predictable and recurring revenue stream
over the long term.

Cloutea has been rebranded “Clouffee and Tea,” which will open in a new location in Las Vegas in January 2025.

In 2024, the Company generated
$4.2 million in total revenue, a decrease from $8.8 million in 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by a decline in product revenue
within our Robotics category, partially offset by an increase in leasing revenue. The shift towards service and leasing reflects the ongoing
transition to our Robot-as-a-Service model, which is expected to generate more predictable and recurring revenue streams in the long term.

Cost of Revenue

Our gross profit decreased
significantly in 2024, declining by 55% from $6.0 million in 2023 to $2.7 million in 2024, our gross margin remained relatively stable.
Our gross margin was 64% in 2024, compared to 69% in the prior year. This slight decrease in gross margin is primarily attributed to adjustments
and write-offs related to our inventory. During the year, we conducted a thorough review of our inventory and identified certain obsolete
and slow-moving items that required adjustments and write-offs. These adjustments impacted on our cost of goods sold and, consequently,
our gross margin. We have implemented measures to improve our inventory management practices and minimize the risk of future inventory
obsolescence.

Despite this slight margin compression, we are pleased with the overall stability of our
gross margin, which reflects the inherent profitability of our business model. We believe that our strategic shift towards an RaaS model,
with its higher-margin recurring revenue streams, will further enhance our profitability in the long term.

Gross Profit

Despite the decrease in revenue, our gross profit remained relatively
stable, decreasing from $6.0 million in 2023 to $2.7 million in 2024. This resulted in a gross margin of 64% in 2024, compared to 69%
in the prior year. This slight decrease in gross margin is primarily attributed to a shift in our revenue mix. As we transition towards
a Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) model, a higher proportion of our revenue is now generated from service and leasing arrangements. These arrangements
generally have lower gross margins compared to product sales, as they involve ongoing service costs and the amortization of the robot’s
cost over the contract term. However, we believe this strategic shift towards RaaS will benefit us in the long run by creating more predictable
recurring revenue streams and fostering stronger customer relationships.

Research and Development Expenses

We remain committed to investing
in research and development to drive innovation and maintain our competitive edge. R&D expenses increased from $1.9 million in 2023
to $2.0 million in 2024 was due primarily to our increased expenditure in developing new products.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Our sales and marketing expenses
increased significantly, from $238,000 in 2023 to $1.3 million in 2024. This increase is directly related to our strategic initiatives
to expand our market reach and promote our RaaS (Robot-as-a-Service) offerings.

General and Administrative Expenses

As a newly public company,
we incurred higher general and administrative expenses, which increased from $3.5 million in 2023 to $6.4 million in 2024. This increase
is primarily due to an increase in professional service fees associated with operating as a public company.

Other Income (Expense)

Our total other expenses
increased in 2024, rising from $734,000 in 2023 to $749,000 in 2024. This increase is mainly attributed to higher interest expenses incurred
on outstanding debt. As we scaled our operations and invested in working capital to support our growth, our interest expense increased.
However, we made a strategic decision to prioritize debt reduction and paid off a significant portion of our outstanding loans in the
middle of 2024. This proactive approach to debt management will reduce our interest burden going forward, improve our overall financial
position, and provide us with greater financial flexibility to pursue future growth opportunities

Income Tax Benefit/(Expense)

We recorded an income tax
expense of $318 thousand in 2024. This is primarily driven by the removal of deferred tax benefits. Management determined that it is more
likely than not that the Company will be unable to realize the benefits of these deductible temporary differences in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity
are cash and cash equivalents, which consist of cash on hand and short-term investments that are readily convertible to cash. As of September
30, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $14.6 million. This represents a significant increase from $433,000 at the end of the
prior fiscal year. The substantial increase in our cash position is primarily attributable to the net proceeds of $40.2 million received
from our initial public offering completed in November 2023 and subsequent financing as described in “ITEM 1. Business – Recent
Developments – Registered Offering.” These proceeds significantly strengthened our balance sheet and provided us with the
financial flexibility to invest in our growth initiatives, including the expanding our R&D team, purchase of property and equipment
to support our expanding operations. This increase was partially offset by cash used in operating activities, primarily due to our net
loss and investments in working capital.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

See Note 2 to our audited
financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management
bases its estimates on historical experience, market and other conditions, and various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable.
See Note 2 to our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information.

JOBS Act

Section 107 of the JOBS
Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of
the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can
delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected
to avail ourselves of this extended transition period.

For as long as we remain
an “emerging growth company” under the recently enacted JOBS Act, we will, among other things:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
be exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires that our independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting;

ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in
conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this Report and
in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The following discussion may contain predictions, estimates, and other forward-looking
statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere
in this Report. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future performance suggested
below.

Overview

We are a leading provider
of service robotic solutions by developing, manufacturing, and deploying novel products that address the growing need for automation
in the service industry. We develop and provide service automation solutions that directly address the labor shortage problem
affecting the US service industry. Our solutions include delivery, commercial cleaning, food & beverage service, and
customization and development service, which has been implemented in more than 80 cities across the United States in
restaurants, hotels, casinos, senior living homes, factories and retail centers. Our solutions automate repetitive and
time-consuming tasks which allows clients to reallocate labor hours to more value-creating roles. Many of our clients see
our robotic solutions as crucial to expanding and scaling their businesses.

Our product family was designed
to provide labor-intensive businesses with robotic automation solutions. Hospitality is the most labor-intensive industry, which is why
we have deployed our robots across restaurants, hotels, casinos, hospitals, bars, event spaces, and senior living homes. The market is
currently in the phase where end-users and system integrators are still gaining experience in adoption and implementation of nonindustrial
service robots. In North America, the primary driver for adoption will be the ongoing trend to automate menial or non-value-adding-tasks.
These tasks include cleaning, transport and delivery, and food preparation.

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Business and
Results of Operations

The following trends and uncertainties
either affected our financial performance historically or are likely to impact our results of operations in the future:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
As our robotic products market potential is seen by others, more competitors enter the market, which will lead to price competition and a decline in profit margins;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
A recession will lead to a decline in customer demand in our robotic products and services;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Some of the products are currently assembled by suppliers in China, which may delay the supply if they are affected by international shipping, epidemic, geopolitical conflicts and other factors;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as a result of increased costs associated with being a public company. These increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees to outside consultants, attorneys, and accountants, and personnel-related stock-based compensation costs, among other expenses, and, in the case of public company-related expenses, services associated with strengthening our internal control over financial reporting, maintaining compliance with Nasdaq listing and SEC reporting requirements, director and officer liability insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs, among other expenses.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
Inflationary pressures are also a concern as it is difficult to make reliable projections for the cost of components. This means profit margins could be affected, and our pricing would need to re-evaluated on a regular basis.
Column 1Column 2Column 3
The rising interest rate will lead to a higher borrowing cost. It will increase our cost for any potential future borrowing and financing activities. Higher interest rates reduce consumer spending and business investment, causing the economy to contract, which will impact our business and will reduce our customers’ purchasing power.

For
the fiscal years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our overall robotics revenue was $8,464 thousand and $5,298 thousand, respectively.
The $3,166 thousand increase, or 60%, was brought on by the official launch of our ADAM robot,
the culmination of several enterprise deals, and the generally increased adoption rate among medium to small business.

Cost of Revenue, Net

Cost
of revenue, net was $2,744 thousand and $2,098 thousand for the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The
$646 thousand increase, or 31%, was due primarily to the increase of our robotics revenue in 2023.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage
of total revenue was 69% for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared to 65% for the year ended September 30, 2022. The increase
in the gross profit percentage in 2023 was driven primarily by the occurrence and recognition of our robotic service revenue, which has
a higher margin.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses
were $1,979 thousand and $1,772 thousand for the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The $207 thousand increase, or
12%, from 2022 to 2023 was due primarily to our increased expenditure in developing new products.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses
were $238 thousand and $297 thousand for the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This reduction of $59, or
20%, in marketing costs was primarily due to better efficiency in our ability to target ideal customers by concentrating marketing efforts
on the highest return on investment (ROI) activities. In addition, the success of our marketing efforts in 2022 had already put us at
capacity in terms of manufacturing and installations for 2023.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative
expenses were $3,509 thousand and $2,258 thousand for the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The $1,251
thousand increase, or 55%, from 2022 to 2023 was due primarily to an increase in professional service fees related to prepare for the
initial public offering, and an increase in commission expenses caused by the higher sales.

Other Income (Expense)

Total other expense was
$734 thousand and $18 thousand for the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The $716 thousand, or
3,978%, net increase in total other expense was primarily due to the interest expense occurred incurred within the twelve months
ended September 30, 2023. During 2023, we entered into ten short-term loan agreements with different financial entities for the
total principal amount of $1,853. As of September 30, 2023, the short-term loan balance was $845. The majority of these loans have
been paid off, and the remaining balance was $55 as of the reporting date.

Income Tax Benefit/(Expense)

There was an income tax benefit
of $106 thousand for the year ended September 30, 2023, and there was an income tax expense of $113 thousand, for the years
ended September 30, 2022. The $219 thousand difference was primarily due to the loss before income tax generated in 2023. The income
tax benefit and/or expenses recorded for both of the year ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 differ from the U.S. federal statutory
tax rate of 21% due primarily to the tax impact of state income taxes, non-deductible officers’ compensation, and transportation
fringe benefits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our existing
cash as of the date of this Report will fund our current operating plans through at least the next twelve months from the date of this
Report. Although we have operating cash outflows of $2,909 thousand for the year ended September 30, 2023 and $2,646 thousand for the
year ended September 30, 2022, our working capital is in net asset position with $4,092 thousand as of September 30, 2023 and 2,764 thousand
as of September 30, 2022. We launched a new line of robotics products at the end of 2021, which increased our accounts receivable to $5,576
thousand as of September 30, 2023 and $1,656 thousand as of September 30, 2022. We expect to collect the majority of these cash payments
within the next twelve months from the date of this Report. In addition, if needed, we expect to finance our future cash needs within
the next twelve months from the date of this Report through founder investment, public or private equity or debt financings, third-party
(including government) funding and marketing and distribution arrangements, as well as other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing
arrangements, or any combination of these approaches.

We will continue seeking
additional capital to expand our operations, advance our products and scale our sales and marketing
capabilities. We will continue seeking additional financing sources to meet our working capital requirements, make investment in
research and development and make capital expenditures needed to maintain and expand our business. If we raise additional funds
through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and
any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock,
including shares of common stock sold in this offering.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating
activities for the year ended September 30, 2023 was $2,909 thousand, primarily due to a net loss of $339 thousand and a decrease
of $2,570 thousand in net operating assets and liabilities. The cash flow impact from changes in net operating assets and liabilities
was primarily driven by increases in accounts receivable of $3,919 thousand, deferred tax asset of $518 thousand and current operating
lease liabilities of $108 thousand, partially offset by decreases in inventory of $551 thousand, right-of-use asset of $67 thousand and
increase in accounts payable and tax payable of $951 thousand and $344 thousand, respectively. For the increase in accounts receivable of $3,919 thousand, we have collected majority of this amount as of the
report date.

financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management
bases its estimates on historical experience, market and other conditions, and various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable.

JOBS Act

Section 107 of the JOBS
Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of
the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can
delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected
to avail ourselves of this extended transition period.

For as long as we remain an
“emerging growth company” under the recently enacted JOBS Act, we will, among other things:

Column 1Column 2Column 3
be exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires that our independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting;
Column 1Column 2Column 3
be permitted to omit the detailed compensation discussion and analysis from proxy statements and reports filed under the Exchange Act and instead provide a reduced level of disclosure concerning executive compensation; and
Column 1Column 2Column 3
be exempt from any rules that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report on the financial statements.

Although
we are still evaluating the JOBS Act, we currently intend to take advantage of some or all of the reduced regulatory and reporting requirements
that will be available to us so long as we qualify as an “emerging growth company,” including the extension of time to comply
with new or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b) of the JOBS Act. Among other things, this
means that our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to provide an attestation report on the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting so long as we qualify as an emerging growth company, which may increase the risk that
weaknesses or deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting go undetected. Likewise, so long as we qualify as an emerging
growth company, we may elect not to provide you with certain information, including certain financial information and certain information
regarding compensation of our executive officers, that we would otherwise have been required to provide in filings we make with the SEC,
which may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our company. As a result, investor confidence in our
company and the market price of our common stock may be materially and adversely affected.
