The strategy involves a two-phase approach, targeting the industrial sector first, then expanding to consumer and residential markets for continuous and increasing revenue growth.
Management Comments
- We believe that IoT will soon reach a critical limit; we do not have enough human labor and natural resources to support its growth. Twenty billion IoT devices challenge existing resources. To address these challenges, we have developed the technology and products described below.
- Our internal testing suggests that a single 5G+ subcarrier wave has the potential to provide speeds of 64 to 256 Mbps.
- Our goal is to increase the speed of 5G networks while simultaneously reducing the number of subcarriers.
- According to our internal testing, our ultra-narrowband PLC technology can send and receive data without the customary interference that occurs in standard office and residential environments, achieving speeds of 4 Mbps at a bandwidth of less than 1000 Hz.
- We believe our USIP will revolutionize the field of instrumentation, measurement, control, and automation.
- Our testing against the state-of-the-art sensors on the market suggests to us that the new sensors are at least as good as the best quality sensors on the market. However, we believe that our sensors are more cost effective.
- We believe the software will significantly simplify the Form 10-Q and Form 10-K preparation processes and make creating, editing and managing documents both simple and accurate. We are planning to commercialize this software in 2025.
- Management estimates that with this product what once took weeks of manual work can now be completed in minutes (referring to financial reporting software).
- We believe hardware cost reductions of up to 90% have been achieved (regarding universal smart technology applied to existing devices).
- We believe universal wireless smart technology will play a critical role for traditional instrument manufacturers, as currently the undertaking of an IoT project is simply too expensive and difficult to develop for medium or smaller companies and carries a 75% failure rate according to Cisco Systems.
Industry Context
The company operates within the rapidly expanding IoT market, which is projected to reach 50 billion devices by 2030, yet faces challenges such as resource limitations and high project failure rates. Focus Universal aims to address these by offering innovative solutions like Device on a Chip and ultra-narrowband technologies for 5G and Power Line Communication, which could reduce costs and simplify integration. Its SEC financial reporting software targets a growing market, estimated to reach $36.6 billion by 2030, driven by demand for efficiency and compliance. In smart home installations, the company seeks to differentiate itself in a competitive landscape by offering more cost-effective, customizable, and interoperable systems compared to established players. The company's air filtration products also benefit from the growing industrial air filtration market, driven by stricter environmental regulations.
Comparison to Industry Standards
- Our Device on a Chip (DoC) technology shifts integration from the component level directly to the device level, which is a more advanced approach compared to existing IC integration in IoT devices that primarily focuses on hardware-to-hardware integration.
- Our 5G+ ultra-narrowband technology aims to provide speeds of 64 to 256 Mbps with a single subcarrier wave, significantly more efficient than current 5G technology which requires 3,276 subcarrier waves for its speeds.
- Our ultra-narrowband Power Line Communication (PLC) technology demonstrates superior interference resistance, achieving 4 Mbps at less than 1000 Hz bandwidth even with six industrial blowers, whereas competitors' legacy PLC technology is rendered useless by a single hair dryer.
- Our new sensors (TDS, carbon dioxide, quantum PAR, total dissolved oxygen) are internally tested to be at least as good as the best quality sensors on the market, while also being more cost-effective.
- Our SEC financial reporting software, 'One Touch Financial,' aims to be superior to competitors like Workiva, ActiveDisclosure, Datarails, and Carta by offering substantially cheaper pricing and rapid, accessible, and straightforward implementation as a Microsoft-based add-on.
- Our smart home installation business, through AVX, aims to distinguish itself from competitors like Crestron ($20,000-$100,000 per installation) and Control4 ($20,000-$40,000 per installation) by offering substantially lower prices, more customization, and interoperability, contrasting with Vivint Smart Home's security-only focus.
- Our Universal Smart Instrumentation Platform (USIP), utilizing a smartphone as the output display, is designed to replace traditional, wired stand-alone instruments at a fraction of their cost, unlike products from competitors such as Hanna Instruments or Extech Instruments which are not smartphone compatible and are more expensive.
- Monnit Corporation's web-based wireless sensors are often not portable due to power consumption, have slow real-time updates, and may have security concerns, requiring monthly fees, which our Ubiquitor aims to overcome with its efficient and cost-effective approach.

Related Party Transactions
- Loans with Golden Sunrise Investment LLC (owned by two shareholders collectively owning ~19% of shares): A $1,000,000 loan on September 7, 2023, and an additional $300,000 loan on March 5, 2024, both at 12% annual interest. Principal and interest ($1,300,000 + $28,208) were paid off on July 3, 2024, from proceeds of a property sale.
- Loan with CEO Desheng Wang: A two-year loan agreement for $300,000 on April 2, 2024, increased to $801,000, at 12% annual interest. Principal and interest ($801,000 + $19,501) were paid off on July 9, 2024.
- Private Placement of Common Stock (September 18, 2024): CEO Desheng Wang and Chairman Edward Lee each purchased 100,000 shares of common stock for $300,000 each ($3.00 per share). The company recorded a stock compensation cost of $340,000 related to this issuance due to the trading price being $4.70 at issuance.
- Private Placement of Series A Preferred Stock (October 15, 2025): Chairman Edward Lee purchased 500,000 shares for $2,000,000, and another shareholder purchased 250,000 shares for $1,000,000.

Stakeholder Impact
- Shareholders face potential significant dilution from the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock (up to 10,558,975 shares) and future capital raises (up to $250 million). The company's ongoing losses and going concern doubt pose a substantial risk to investment value. Nasdaq delisting risk could further reduce liquidity. The concentration of ownership by management (over 49%) could limit the influence of other shareholders. No dividends are expected.
- Employees may be impacted by the company's financial instability and dependence on key personnel. Stock-based compensation is a component of executive pay, but overall financial health affects job security and future compensation prospects.
- Customers could benefit from new IoT technologies and financial reporting software designed for cost-effectiveness and efficiency. However, product liability risks and manufacturing outsourcing issues could impact product quality and reliability, potentially affecting customer satisfaction and adoption.
- Suppliers face risks due to the company's reliance on a single manufacturing partner without a formal contract, which could lead to supply chain disruptions. Price fluctuations in raw materials could also affect the company's ability to maintain favorable terms.
- Creditors face elevated risk due to the company's going concern doubt, recurring losses, and negative cash flows. The redemption rights of Series B Preferred Stock could create significant cash obligations that the company may struggle to meet.

Recommendation
strong sellThe company exhibits severe financial distress, marked by significantly increasing net losses, declining revenue, and a drastic reduction in working capital and cash. The 'going concern' warning is a critical red flag. While there are ongoing capital raises, they appear to be primarily for survival rather than robust growth, and the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock (variable conversion price, redemption rights) introduce further complexity and potential dilution. The identified material weaknesses in internal controls and multiple pending litigations add to operational and financial uncertainty.
