Financial Results

The following discussion of the results of operations constitutes management's review of the factors that affected the financial and operating performance for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. The Company has a June 30 fiscal year end.

Executive Summary

Xeriant, Inc. is dedicated to the acquisition, development and commercialization of transformative aerospace technologies, including eco-friendly specialty materials which can be successfully deployed and integrated across multiple industry sectors, and disruptive innovations related to the emerging aviation market called Advanced Air Mobility, which include next-generation aircraft.

The Company is located at the Research Park at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida.

JV with XTI Aircraft

On May 31, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI”), a Delaware corporation, to form a new company, called Eco-Aero, LLC (the “JV”), a Delaware limited liability company, with the purpose of completing the preliminary design of XTI’s TriFan 600, a 5-passenger plus pilot, hybrid electric, vertical takeoff, and landing (eVTOL) fixed wing aircraft. Under the Agreement, Xeriant is contributing capital, technology, and strategic business relationships, and XTI is contributing intellectual property licensing rights and know-how. XTI and the Company each own 50 percent of the JV. The JV is managed by a management committee consisting of five members, three appointed by the Company and two by XTI. The Agreement was effective on June 4, 2021, with an initial deposit of $1 million into the JV. Xeriant’s financial commitment is up to $10 million, contributed as needed based on the aircraft development timeline and budget.

The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient equity to operate without financial support from Xeriant. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 50/50. However, the agreement provides for a Management Committee of five members. Three of the five members are from Xeriant. Additionally, Xeriant has the right to invest up to $10,000,000 into the JV. As such, Xeriant has substantial capital at risk. Based on these two factors, the conclusion is that Xeriant is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, Xeriant has consolidated the VIE.

Recent Developments

JV with Movychem

On April 2, 2022 the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Movychem s.r.o., a Slovakian limited liability company setting forth the terms for the establishment of a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) to develop applications and commercialize a series of flame-retardant products in the form of polymer gels, powders, liquids and pellets derived from technology developed by Movychem under the name RetacellTM. The Joint Venture is organized as a Florida limited liability company under the name Ebenberg, LLC and is owned 50% by each of the Company and Movychem.

For its capital contribution to the Joint Venture, pursuant to a Patent and Exclusive License and Assignment Agreement (the “Patent Agreement”), Movychem is transferring to the Joint Venture all of its interest to the know-how and intellectual property relating to Retacell exclusive of all patents, and the Company is contributing the amount of $2,600,000 payable (a) $600,000 at the rate of $25,000 per month over a 24 month period and (b) $2,000,000 within five business days of a closing of a financing in which the Company receives net proceeds of at least $3,000,000 but in no event later than six months from the Effective Date. At such time as the Company makes its $2,000,000 payment (and assuming the Company is current with its then monthly capital contributions), pursuant to the Patent Agreement, Movychem will transfer all of its rights, title and interest to all of the patents related to Retacell for an amount equal to aggregate cash contributions of the Company to the Joint Venture plus 40% of all royalty payments received by the Joint Venture for the licensing of Retacell products. Pending assignment of the patents to the Joint Venture, pursuant to the Patent Agreement, Movychem has granted to the Joint Venture an exclusive worldwide license under the patents.

Table of Contents

Concurrently with the execution of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Joint Venture has entered into a Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with the Company pursuant to which the Company will provide to the Joint Venture technical services related to the exploitation of the Retacell intellectual property and corporate, marketing. business development, communications and administrative services as requested by the Joint Venture in exchange for 40% of all royalty payments received by the Joint Venture for the licensing of Retacell products.

Under the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company has agreed to grant to certain individuals affiliated with Movychem five-year warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 170,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share with vesting depending on the satisfaction of various milestones as described therein.

The Joint Venture Agreement grants to Movychem the right to dissolve the Joint Venture in the event that the Company fails to make any of its capital contributions in which case the Joint Venture will be required to grant back to Movychem all joint venture intellectual property and the assignment to Movychem of any outstanding licenses. Additionally, the Services Agreement will be amended to provide that the 40% of royalties to be paid by to the Company will be limited to licensees who were first introduced to the Joint Venture or Movychem, as the case may be.

The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient equity to operate without financial support from both parties. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 50/50 and the agreement provides for a Management Committee of five members. Two of the five members are from Xeriant and Movychem, respectively and one is appointed by mutual agreement of the parties. Movychem is transferring to the Joint Venture all of its interest to the know-how and intellectual property relating to Retacell exclusive of all patents, and the Company is contributing cash. As such, both parties do not have substantial capital at risk. Based on these two factors, the conclusion is that no one is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, Xeriant has not consolidated the VIE.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company paid $115,357 to the joint venture.

Stock Sales

During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company received $2,207,050 by selling 43,675,266 shares common stock, which includes 4,308,600 shares issued based on the exercise of warrants.

Convertible Notes Issued

During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company received $4,958,950 from issuance of convertible debt.

Litigation

On September 1, 2021, Xeriant Inc. brought a cause of action in the Southern District of Florida against a former shareholder for claims, including but not limited to, breach of contract, misrepresentation, and asserting claims to recoup monetary and in-kind distributions made to the shareholder by the Company. The defendant submitted an affirmative defense and counterclaim on October 29, 2021.

Sales and marketing expenses

Total sales and marketing expenses were $651,567 and $1,047,120 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 the Company’s sales and marketing expenses were associated with social media marketing campaigns, events and press releases.

General and administrative expenses

Total general and administrative expenses were $4,216,613 and $368,296 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The change was primarily due to an increase in stock issuances related to consulting fees and advisory board fees, advisory board fees paid in cash, and an increase in travel, meetings, and conferences.

Professional Fees

Total professional fees were $444,012 and $190,693 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase was primarily due to legal fees.

Related Party Consulting Fees

Total related party consulting fees were $432,425 and $220,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The related party consulting fees for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 consisted of (i) $184,000 to Ancient Investments, LLC, a company owned by Keith Duffy, CEO and Scott Duffy, Executive Director of Operations, (ii) $86,000 for AMP Web Services, LLC, a company owned by Pablo Lavigna, CIO, $122,000 to Edward DeFeudis, Director, and (iii) $40,425 for Keystone Business Development Partners, LLC, a company owned by Brian Carey, CFO.

Research and Development Expenses

Total research and development expenses were $5,267,581 and $373,112 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These research and development expenses were in connection with our Eco-Aero, LLC joint venture with XTI Aircraft Company for funding the preliminary design phase in the development of an aircraft, called the TriFan 600.

Other Income (Expenses)

Total other expenses consist of amortization of debt discount related to convertible notes, interest expense related to convertible notes, and a loss on settlement of debt. Total other expenses were $4,869,997 for the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to $503,381 for the year ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to recording the amortization of debt discount from the convertible note signed for the year ended June 30, 2022 in the amount of $4,629,089.

Net loss

Total net loss was $15,882,195 for the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to $2,702,602 for the year ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to research and development expense and the cost of financings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022, we had a cash balance of $1,065,945 and a working deficit of $3,002,259. Our net loss of $15,882,195 in the year ended June 30, 2022 was mostly funded by proceeds raised from financings. We will need to raise working capital (or refinance existing short-term debt to long-term debt) to fund operations. Future equity financings may be dilutive to our stockholders. Alternative forms of future financings may include preferences or rights superior to our common stock. Debt financings may involve a pledge of assets and will rank senior to our common stock. We have historically financed our operations through best- efforts private equity and debt financings. We do not have any credit or equity facilities available with financial institutions, stockholders or third-party investors, and will continue to rely on best efforts financings. The failure to raise sufficient capital will likely cause us to cease operations.

During the fiscal year 2022, our operating activities used $6,927,249 of net cash compared to using $1,012,203 of net cash flow in our operating activities during fiscal year 2021. This difference primarily resulted from the increase of operations such as research and development expense of $5,267,581 and non-cash expense such as stock option expense of $3,248,181 and amortization of debt discount of $4,629,089.

Funding Strategy

To date, our operations have been funded primarily through private investors. Some of these investors have verbally committed additional funding for the Company, as needed. We have had a number of discussions with broker-dealers regarding the funding required to execute the Company’s business plan, which is to acquire and develop breakthrough technologies or business interests in those companies that have developed these technologies. We are in the process of issuing an offering document to obtain the funding for certain acquisitions that are in the discussion stages.

Off Balance Sheet Items

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

Critical Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of the Company and American Aviation Technologies, LLC, its subsidiary, and Eco-Aero, LLC, its joint venture, and are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and presented in US dollars. The fiscal year end is June 30.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Xeriant, Inc., and American Aviation Technologies, LLC, and Eco-Aero, LLC. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of beneficial conversion features and warrants associated with convertible debt. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for equity incentive awards based on the grant date fair value of the award. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock options granted to employees or consultants. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the period during which the employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period.

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including all current liabilities are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Table of Contents

Deferred Taxes

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes ("ASC 740-10") for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods.

Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse and are considered immaterial. As of June 30, 2022 there are no deferred tax assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has no cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company monitors outstanding receivables based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on an assessment of the Company's ability to collect on customer accounts receivable. There is judgment involved with estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts and if the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company may be required to record additional allowances or charges against revenues. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance when it determines a balance is uncollectible and no longer actively pursues its collection. The allowance for doubtful accounts is created by forming a credit balance which is deducted from the total receivables balance in the balance sheet. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021 there are no accounts receivable.

Convertible Debentures

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature ("BCF"). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options." In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense, over the life of the debt. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a BCF in the amount of $2,615,419.

Table of Contents

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825-10") requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820-10") and Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825-10"), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.

Research and Development Expenses

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $5,267,581 and $373,112 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Advertising, Marketing and Public Relations

The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as they are incurred. The Company recorded advertising expenses in the amount of $651,567 and $1,047,120 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Offering Costs

Costs incurred in connection with raising capital by the issuance of common stock are recorded as contra equity and deducted from the capital raised. There were no offering costs for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of general and administrative expenses. Our consolidated federal tax return and any state tax returns are not currently under examination.

The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually from differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Xeriant, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Xeriant, Inc. (the "Company") as of June 30, 2022 and 2021 the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BasisforOpinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Creation of Variable Interest Entity

As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, management applied FASB Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”) to recognize if a Joint Venture (“JV”) classifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). Management recognizes a VIE when the Company has a controlling financial interest in the VIE and, thus, is the VIE’s primary beneficiary. The Company’s assessment includes determining the characteristics of the reporting entity’s variable interest(s) and other involvements (including involvement of related parties and de facto agents), if any, in the VIE, as well as the involvement of other variable interest holders. Additionally, the assessment, considers the VIE’s purpose and design, including the risks that the VIE was designed to create and pass through to its variable interest holders.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures over determination if a VIE relationship exits is a critical audit matter as there are more significant risks associated with no recognition of. This in turn led to significant effort in performing our audit procedures which were designed to evaluate whether the beneficiary has the power, through voting rights or similar right, to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity and the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity were appropriately considered by management under ASC 810.

Our audit procedures included, among others, determining the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and the Company retaining the power to most affect those activities, whether the Company’s economic interest, including its obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits, “is disproportionately greater than its power to direct the activities of the VIE that significantly influence its economic performance and if the JV has sufficient equity to operate without financial support from the Company.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Xeriant, Inc.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of the Company, American Aviation Technologies, LLC, and Eco-Aero, LLC, its subsidiaries, are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and presented in US dollars. The fiscal year end is June 30.

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had $1,065,945 and $962,540 in cash and $3,002,259 in negative working capital and $677,257 in working capital, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a net loss of $15,882,195 and $2,702,602, respectively. Continued losses may adversely affect the liquidity of the Company in the future. Therefore, the factors noted above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Xeriant, Inc., American Aviation Technologies, LLC, and Eco-Aero, LLC. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of beneficial conversion features and warrants associated with convertible debt. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including all current liabilities are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The inputs to the valuation methodology of stock options and warrants were under level 3 fair value measurements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has no cash equivalents.

NOTE2–SUMMARYOFSIGNIFICANTACCOUNTINGPOLICIES(CONTINUED)

Convertible Debentures

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature ("BCF"). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options." In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense, over the life of the debt. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a BCF in the amount of $2,615,419.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for equity incentive awards based on the grant date fair value of the award. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock options granted to employees or consultants. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the period during which the employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period.

Research and Development Expenses

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $5,267,581 and $373,112 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as they are incurred. The Company recorded advertising expenses in the amount of $651,567 and $1,047,120 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NOTE2–SUMMARYOFSIGNIFICANTACCOUNTINGPOLICIES(CONTINUED)

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is more likely than not of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of general and administrative expenses. Our consolidated federal tax return and any state tax returns are not currently under examination.

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes ("ASC 740-10") for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods.

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations.

The table below presents the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

NOTE 3 – JOINT VENTURE

JV with XTI Aircraft

On May 31, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI”), a Delaware corporation, to form a new company, called Eco-Aero, LLC (the “JV”), a Delaware limited liability company, with the purpose of completing the preliminary design of XTI’s TriFan 600, a 5-passenger plus pilot, hybrid electric, vertical takeoff, and landing (eVTOL) fixed wing aircraft. Under the Agreement, Xeriant is contributing capital, technology, and strategic business relationships, and XTI is contributing intellectual property licensing rights and know-how. XTI and the Company each own 50 percent of the JV. The JV is managed by a management committee consisting of five members, three appointed by the Company and two by XTI. The Agreement was effective on June 4, 2021, with an initial deposit of $1 million into the JV. Xeriant’s financial commitment is for up to $10 million, contributed as required by the aircraft development timeline and budget.

The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient equity to operate without financial support from Xeriant. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 50/50. However, the agreement provides for a Management Committee of five members. Three of the five members are from Xeriant. Additionally, Xeriant has an obligation to invest $10,000,000 into the JV. As such, Xeriant has substantial capital at risk. Based on these two factors, the conclusion is that Xeriant is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, Xeriant has consolidated the VIE.

JV with Movychem

On April 2, 2022 the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Movychem s.r.o., a Slovakian limited liability company setting forth the terms for the establishment of a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) to develop applications and commercialize a series of flame-retardant products in the form of polymer gels, powders, liquids and pellets derived from technology developed by Movychem under the name RetacellTM. The Joint Venture is organized as a Florida limited liability company under the name Ebenberg, LLC and is owned 50% by each of the Company and Movychem.

For its capital contribution to the Joint Venture, pursuant to a Patent and Exclusive License and Assignment Agreement (the “Patent Agreement”), Movychem is transferring to the Joint Venture all of its interest to the know-how and intellectual property relating to Retacell exclusive of all patents, and the Company is contributing the amount of $2,600,000 payable (a) $600,000 at the rate of $25,000 per month over a 24 month period and (b) $2,000,000 within five business days of a closing of a financing in which the Company receives net proceeds of at least $3,000,000 but in no event later than six months from the Effective Date. At such time as the Company makes its $2,000,000 payment (and assuming the Company is current with its then monthly capital contributions), pursuant to the Patent Agreement, Movychem will transfer all of its rights, title and interest to all of the patents related to Retacell for an amount equal to aggregate cash contributions of the Company to the Joint Venture plus 40% of all royalty payments received by the Joint Venture for the licensing of Retacell products. Pending assignment of the patents to the Joint Venture, pursuant to the Patent Agreement, Movychem has granted to the Joint Venture an exclusive worldwide license under the patents.

Concurrently with the execution of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Joint Venture will provide to the Joint Venture technical services related to the exploitation of the Retacell intellectual property and corporate, marketing. business development, communications and administrative services as requested by the Joint Venture in exchange for 40% of all royalty payments received by the Joint Venture for the licensing of Retacell products.

Under the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company has agreed to grant to certain individuals affiliated with Movychem five-year warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 170,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share with vesting depending on the satisfaction of various milestones as described therein.

The Joint Venture Agreement grants to Movychem the right to dissolve the Joint Venture in the event that the Company fails to make any of its capital contributions in which case the Joint Venture will be required to grant back to Movychem all joint venture intellectual property and the assignment to Movychem of any outstanding licenses. Additionally, the Services Agreement will be amended to provide that the 40% of royalties to be paid by to the Company will be limited to licensees who were first introduced to the Joint Venture or Movychem, as the case may be.

The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient equity to operate without financial support from both parties. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 50/50 and the agreement provides for a Management Committee of five members. Two of the five members are from Xeriant and Movychem, respectively and one is appointed by mutual agreement of the parties. Movychem is transferring to the Joint Venture all of its interest to the know-how and intellectual property relating to Retacell exclusive of all patents, and the Company is contributing cash. As such, both parties do not have substantial capital at risk. Based on these two factors, the conclusion is that no one is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, Xeriant has not consolidated the VIE.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company contributed $115,356 to the joint venture.

NOTE 4 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISKS

The Company maintains accounts with financial institutions. All cash in checking accounts is non-interest bearing and is fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). At times, cash balances may exceed the maximum coverage provided by the FDIC on insured depositor accounts. The Company believes it mitigates its risk by depositing its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. On June 30, 2022, the Company had $811,429 in excess of FDIC insurance.

NOTE 5 – OPERATING LEASE RIGHT-OF-USE ASSET AND OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY

The Company leases 2,911 square feet of office space located in the Research Park at Florida Atlantic University, Innovation Centre 1, 3998 FAU Boulevard, Suite 309, Boca Raton, Florida. The Company entered into a lease agreement commencing on November 1, 2019 through January 1, 2025 in which the first three months of rent were abated. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company decided to have all employees work from home and intends to build out the office space by the end of 2022 to allow employees to work from the office in January of 2023. The following table illustrates the base rent amounts over the term of the lease:

Base Rent Periods

Operating lease right-of-use asset and liability are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value is our incremental borrowing rate, estimated to be 10%, as the interest rate implicit in most of our leases is not readily determinable. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Since the common area maintenance expenses are expenses that do not depend on an index or rate, they are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability and recognized in other general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations. At inception the Company paid prepaid rent in the amount of $4,659, which was netted against the operating lease right-of-use asset balance until it was applied in February 2020.

Right-of-use asset is summarized below:

Less: accumulated amortization (92,106 )

Right -of- use asset, net $ 128,342

Operating lease liability is summarized below:

Less: current portion (48,963 )

Maturity of the lease liability is as follows:

The Company evaluated the agreement under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 generally requires the analysis embedded terms and features that have characteristics of derivatives to be evaluated for bifurcation and separate accounting in instances where their economic risks and characteristics are not clearly and closely related to the risks of the host contract. None of the embedded terms required bifurcation and liability classification. However, the Company was required to determine if the debt contained a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), which is based on the intrinsic value on the date of issuance.

In connection with the notes, the Company issued warrants indexed to an aggregate 8,848,333 shares of common stock. The warrants have a term of two years and an exercise price of $.025.

Auctus Fund, LLC Senior Secured Note

On October 27, 2021, the Company issued a convertible note payable with Auctus Fund, LLC (the “Auctus Note”) with the principal sum of $6,050,000, which amount is the $5,142,500 actual amount of the purchase price, hereof plus an original issue discount in the amount of $907,500 and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof at the rate of zero percent per annum from the issue date until the note becomes due and payable, and $433,550 for professional fees in completing the transactions. The note has a maturity date of twelve months. The agreement provides the holder has the option to convert the principal balance and any accrued interest to common stock of the Company at a conversion price of lesser of (i) $0.1187 or (ii) 75% of the offering price per share divided by the number of shares of common stock.

The warrants were recorded at fair value of $2,777,081 to additional-paid-in-capital in accordance with ASC 815-10 based upon the allocation of the debt proceeds. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which is based, in part, upon subjective assumptions including but not limited to stock price volatility, the expected life of the warrants, the risk-free interest rate and the fair value of the common stock underlying the warrants. The Company estimates the volatility of its stock based on the average of three similar size public companies peer group historical volatility that is in line with the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bond for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected remaining life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.

The Company was required to determine if the debt contained a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), which is based on the intrinsic value on the date of issuance. The Company recorded $2,365,419 conversion feature in additional paid-in capital. The BCF resulted in a debt discount and are amortized over the life of the note.

NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Table of Contents

Deferred income tax asset

Total deferred income tax asset $ — $ —

The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance to the extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is not judged to be more likely than not. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction, expectations of future taxable income or loss, the carryforward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.

Future changes in the unrecognized tax benefit will have no impact on the effective tax rate due to the existence of the valuation allowance. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefit will not change significantly within the next twelve months. The Company will continue to classify income tax penalties and interest as part of general and administrative expense in its consolidated statements of operations. There were no interest or penalties accrued as of June 30, 2022.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Effective December 4, 2019, the Company engaged BF Borgers CPA P.C. (“BF”), as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The engagement was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures must ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial and other required disclosures.

At June 30, 2022, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Exchange Act) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of Keith Duffy our Chief Executive Officer and Brian Carey our Chief Financial Officer. Based on his evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, he concluded that at June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed directly below.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; (iii) provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and (iv) provide reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because changes in conditions may occur or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Table of Contents

Our management has conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Keith Duffy our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022. This evaluation was based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO, Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based upon such assessment, Keith Duffy concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our material weaknesses relate to the following:

These weaknesses are due to the Company's historical lack of working capital to hire a full-time, dedicated Chief Financial Officer. The Company plans to hire a full-time Chief Financial Officer. Further, the Company intends to appoint additional Directors and form an audit committee comprised of independent directors.

This Report shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Registrant, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission do not require an attestation of the Management's report by our registered public accounting firm in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Director Independence

We are not currently a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have a Board comprised of a majority of independent directors or separate committees comprised of independent directors.

Director Independence; Standing Committees

The Company had two independent directors, including Michael Harper and Lisa Ruth, as defined under the Nasdaq Stock Market’s listing standards, who joined the Board effective May 2021. Both resigned effective May 12, 2022 upon completed their one-year term serving as directors of the Company. Their resignations were anticipated and not as a result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. The Company anticipates replacing these directors with qualified individuals in the new fiscal year.

The Company’s common stock is traded on OTCQB under the symbol “XERI.” The OTCQB trading platform does not maintain any standards regarding the “independence” of the directors for our Board of Directors, and we are not otherwise subject to the requirements of any national securities exchange or an inter- dealer quotation system with respect to the need to have a majority of our directors be independent.

The Company’s Board presently has no functioning standing committees.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be separate or combined, we have traditionally determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to combine these roles due to the small size and early stage of the Company

Family Relationships

Keith Duffy, Chairman and CEO, and Scott Duffy, Executive Director, are brothers.

Board Committees

Audit Committee

We do not have a separately designated audit committee of the board. Audit committee functions are performed by our board of directors. None of our directors are deemed independent. Two directors also hold positions as our officers. Our Board of Directors is responsible for: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; (3) establishing procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters; (4) engaging outside advisors; and, (5) funding for the outside auditory and any outside advisors engagement by the audit committee.

Nominees

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Registrant's board.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC reports of their holdings of, and transactions in, our common stock. Based solely upon our review of copies of such reports and written representations from reporting persons that were provided to us, we believe that our officers, directors and 10% stockholders complied with these reporting requirements with respect to our fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

Code of Ethics

The Registrant has adopted a corporate code of ethics. The Registrant believes its code of ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code.

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

For the year ended June 30, 2022, no director or executive officer has received compensation from the Registrant pursuant to any compensatory or benefit plan. There is no plan or understanding, express or implied, to pay any compensation to any director or executive officer pursuant to any compensatory or benefit plan, although we anticipate that we will compensate our officers and directors for services to us with stock or options to purchase stock, in lieu of cash.

Executive Compensation Policies as They Relate to Risk Management

Management have considered whether our compensation policies might encourage inappropriate risk taking by the Company's executive officers and other employees. The Compensation Committee has determined that the current compensation structure aligns the interests of the executive officers with those of the Company without providing rewards for excessive risk taking by awarding a mix of fixed and performance based or discretionary bonuses with the performance- based compensation focused on profits as opposed to revenue growth.

Option Exercises and Fiscal Year-end Option Value Table

None of the named executive officers exercised any stock options during the year ended June 30, 2022 or held any outstanding stock options as of June 30, 2022.

The table below sets forth as of June 30, 2022, information with respect to beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock by:

· Each of the post-Merger directors and executive officers of the Company.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shares of common stock subject to any warrants or options that are presently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of June 30, 2022, are deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding the warrants or options but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The numbers reflected in the percentage ownership columns are based on a fully diluted basis of the Company’s common stock outstanding after a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Shares. The persons named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable.

Our Board of Directors' policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditors. These services may include audit services, audit related services, tax services, and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The independent auditors and management are required to periodically report to the Board of Directors regarding the extent of services provided by the independent auditors in accordance with this pre-approval and the fees for the services performed to date. The Board of Directors may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis.

Our Board of Directors has reviewed and discussed with BF Borgers CPA P.C. (“BF”), our audited consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The Board of Directors also has discussed with BF the matters required to be discussed pursuant to SAS No. 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU Section 380), which includes, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the audit of our consolidated financial statements.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Board of Directors determined that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 for filing with the SEC.

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 19 headings are on that chain and 13 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
