NOTE 1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

VOIP-PAL.com, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in September 1997 as All American Casting International, Inc. The Company’s registered office is located at 7215 Bosque Blvd, Suite 102, Waco, Texas in the United States of America.

Since March 2004, the Company has developed technology and patents related to Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) processes. All business activities prior to March 2004 have been abandoned and written off to deficit. The Company operates in one reportable segment being the acquisition and development of VoIP-related intellectual property including patents and technology. All intangible assets are located in the United States of America

In December 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of Digifonica (International) Limited, a private company controlled by the CEO of the Company, whose assets included several patents and technology developed for the VoIP market.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is in various stages of product development and continues to incur losses and, at March 31, 2023, had an accumulated deficit of $71,468,498 (September 30, 2022 - $70,076,579). The ability of the Company to continue operations as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional working capital, settling outstanding debts and generating profitable operations. These material uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Should the going concern assumption not continue to be appropriate, further adjustments to carrying values of assets and liabilities may be required. There can be no assurance that capital will be available as necessary to meet these continued developments and operating costs or, if the capital is available, that it will be on the terms acceptable to the Company. The issuances of additional stock by the Company may result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of its current shareholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase the Company’s liabilities and future cash commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable, its business and future success may be adversely affected.

Additionally, as the Company’s stated objective is to monetize its patent suite through the licensing or sale of its intellectual property (“IP”), the Company being forced to litigate or to defend its IP claims through litigation casts substantial doubt on its future to continue as a going concern. IP litigation is generally a costly process, and in the absence of revenue the Company must raise capital to continue its own defense and to validate its claims – in the event of a failure to defend its patent claims, either because of lack of funding, a court ruling against the Company or because of a protracted litigation process, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital to pay for an appeals process or a lengthy trial. The outcome of any litigation process may have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to the COVID-19 coronavirus. Its impact on global economies has been far-reaching and businesses around the world are being forced to cease or limit operations for long or indefinite periods of time. Measures taken to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus, including travel bans, quarantines, social distancing, and closures of non-essential services have triggered significant disruptions to businesses worldwide, resulting in an economic slowdown. Global stock markets have also experienced great volatility and significant declines. Governments and central banks have responded with monetary and fiscal interventions to stabilize economic conditions.

The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the effectiveness of government and central bank responses, remains unclear at this time. It is not possible to reliably estimate the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, nor its impact on the financial position and results of the Company in future periods. The Company is proceeding with its business activities as long as the work environment remains safe – at this point there has been minimal disruption to day-to-day operations resulting from health and safety measures. Disruptions and volatility in the global capital markets may increase the Company’s cost of capital and adversely impact access to capital.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary Digifonica. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. As at March 31, 2023, Digifonica had no activities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Where estimates have been used, financial results as determined by actual events could differ from those estimates.

Cash

Cash consists of cash on hand, cash held in trust, and monies held in checking and savings accounts. The Company had $1,166,569 in cash on March 31, 2023 (September 30, 2022 - $305,485).

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and depreciated using the straight-line method over their useful lives; Furniture and computers – 5 years.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, consisting of VoIP communication patent intellectual properties (IP) are recorded at cost and amortized over the assets estimated life on a straight-line basis. Management considers factors such as remaining life of the patents, technological usefulness and other factors in estimating the life of the assets.

The carrying value of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment by management of the Company at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the carrying amount may be less than its fair value. If impaired, the Company will write-down such impairment. In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may have changed.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity.

The Company classifies financial assets and liabilities as held-for-trading, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity, loans and receivables or other financial liabilities depending on their nature. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized at fair value on their initial recognition, except for those arising from certain related party transactions which are accounted for at the transferor’s carrying amount or exchange amount.

Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in net income. Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, and financial liabilities other than those classified as held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method of amortization. Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses being recognized as other comprehensive income until realized, or if an unrealized loss is considered other than temporary, the unrealized loss is recorded in income.

March 31, 2023

U.S. GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The fair value of cash is classified as Level 1 at March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

The Company classifies its financial instruments as follows: Cash is classified as held for trading and is measured at fair value. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities, and have a fair value approximating their carrying value, due to their short-term nature.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes have been provided for temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting under the asset and liability method, using expected tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when realization is not considered more likely than not.

The Company’s policy is to classify income tax assessments, if any, for interest expense and for penalties in general and administrative expenses. The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by the IRS and corresponding states, generally for three years after they are filed.

Loss per Common Share

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted income per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants outstanding during each period. To calculate diluted loss per share the Company uses the treasury stock method and the if-converted method.

For the period ended March 31, 2023 and the year ended September 30, 2022, there were no potentially dilutive securities included in the calculation of weighted-average common shares outstanding.

Derivatives

We account for derivatives pursuant to ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. All derivative instruments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements and measured at fair value regardless of the purpose or intent for holding them. We determine fair value of warrants and other option type instruments based on option pricing models. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded in income or expense.

Stock-based compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payments made to employees, directors and others based on the estimated fair values of its common stock on the date of issuance.

The Company determines the fair value of the share-based compensation payments granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instrument is reached or the date the performance is complete.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock awards with service conditions on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is included in operations. Stock option expense is recognized over the option’s vesting period.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s policy is to maintain cash with reputable financial institutions or in retainers with trusted vendors. The Company has at times had cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Insurance Limit of $250,000, but has not experienced any losses to date as a result. As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s bank operating account balances exceeds the FDIC Insurance Limit of $250,000 by $916,569.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Adoption

NOTE 4. PURCHASE OF DIGIFONICA

The Company acquired Digifonica in December 2013 by way of a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”), pursuant to which the Company purchased 100% of the shares of Digifonica from the seller, the CEO of the Company (the “Seller”), for a cash payment of $800,000 and 389,023,561 common shares of the Company. The assets acquired through the acquisition were VoIP-related patented technology, including patents for Lawful Intercept, routing, billing and rating, mobile gateway, advanced interoperability solutions, intercepting voice over IP communications, and uninterrupted transmission of internet protocol transmissions during endpoint changes.

The SPA included an anti-dilution clause (the “Anti-Dilution Clause”) that required the Company to maintain the Seller’s percentage ownership of the Company at 40% by issuing the Seller a proportionate number of common shares of any future issuance of the Company’s common shares. Shares issued pursuant to the Anti-Dilution Clause were recorded as a share issuance cost within the Additional Paid-in Capital account (Notes 8 and 10).

During the year ended September 30, 2021, on April 12, 2021, the SPA was amended to provide that: a) from its inception until March 31, 2021, the Company would issue warrants to purchase common shares of the Company in an equivalent amount to and instead of the required shares being issued pursuant to the Anti-Dilution Clause; and b) the Anti-Dilution Clause would be null and void from April 1, 2021 forward. As a result of this amendment, the Seller returned 513,535,229 common shares to the treasury of the Company and relinquished his right to receive an additional 107,935,333 common shares in exchange for 621,470,562 warrants to purchase common shares at a price of $0.021 for a period of ten years from the date of issue.

NOTE 5. RETAINER

The Company has retainers with certain of its professional service providers. The balance due on these prepaid retainers was $6,206 as of March 31, 2023, and $1,181 for the year ended September 30, 2022. The Company recognizes the expense from these retainers as they are invoiced and the invoiced charges are deducted from the various providers’ prepaid retainer balances.

Non-Patent Litigation

The Company is party to the following non-patent litigation case:

Locksmith Financial Corporation, Inc. et al. (Plaintiff(s)) v VoIP-Pal.com Inc. et al (Defendant(s)) (Case No A-20-807745-C) filed in Clark County District Court.

On January 1, 2020, the Plaintiffs filed suit in Nevada District Court claiming that they were owed 95,832,000 Voip-Pal common shares from a previous case involving the Plaintiff and the Defendant that had been through a jury trial in 2019, in which the jury had made an award to the Plaintiff that was monetary only, and did not include said shares - following the jury’s decision in the 2019 trial, the Plaintiff accepted the award and waived their right to appeal. Voip-Pal vigorously disputed the Plaintiff’s 2020 claims on the basis of claim preclusion (the 2020 claims were addressed in the previous action in 2019 and are now precluded); that Plaintiffs’ claims are untimely, and that the Plaintiffs no longer have standing to bring their claims.

During the year ended September 30, 2022, the Court entered a judgment in favor of VoIP-Pal.com Inc and co-defendants, dismissing the 2020 case. The Plaintiffs filed an appeal with the Nevada Supreme Court.

During the six-month period ended March 31, 2023, following a hearing of the appeal, the Nevada Supreme Court ruled to reverse the lower court’s judgment in favor of Voip-Pal and has ordered that the case be remanded back to the lower court for further proceedings. The Defendants (Voip-Pal et al) have filed a motion to the Supreme Court for reconsideration. The case is pending.

Performance Bonus Payable

In 2016, the board of directors authorized the Company to provide a performance bonus (the “Performance Bonus”) of up to 3% of the capital stock of the Company by way of the issuance of Common shares from its treasury to an as yet undetermined group of related and non-related parties upon the occurrence of a bonusable event, defined as the successful completion of a sale of the Company or substantially all its assets, or a major licensing transaction. In order to provide maximum flexibility to the Company with respect to determining the level of Performance Bonus payable, and who may qualify to receive a pro-rata share of such a Performance Bonus, the Company authorized full discretion to the Board in making such determinations.

In 2019, the board of directors authorized the increase of the Performance Bonus to up to 10% of the capital stock of the Company. Concurrently, the directors authorized 66.67% of the Performance Bonus to be issued in an advance payment of an aggregate 127,000,000 Common shares (“Bonus Shares”) to a group of related and non-related parties, which included members of management, a director and several consultants. 30,000,000 of the Bonus Shares are restricted from trading under Rule 144 and are subject to a voluntary lock-up agreement under which they cannot be traded, pledged, hypothecated, transferred or sold by the holders until such time as the Company has met the requirements of the bonusable event as described above.

As at March 31, 2023, no bonusable event had occurred and there was no Performance Bonus payable.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with our interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report, and our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2022 and notes thereto.

CORPORATE HISTORY, OVERVIEW AND PRINCIPAL BUSINESS

VoIP-PAL.com Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in September 1997 as All American Casting International, Inc. and changed its name to VOIP MDI.com in 2004 and subsequently to Voip-Pal.Com Inc. in 2006. Since March 2004, the Company has been in the development stage of becoming a Voice-over-Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) re-seller, a provider of a proprietary transactional billing platform tailored to the points and air mile business, and a provider of anti-virus applications for smartphones. All business activities prior to March 2004 have been abandoned and written off to deficit.

In 2013, the Company acquired Digifonica International (DIL) Limited (“Digifonica”), to fund and co-develop Digifonica’s patent suite. Digifonica had been founded in 2003 with the vision that the internet would be the future of all forms of telecommunications - a team of twenty top engineers with expertise in Linux and Internet telephony developed and wrote a software suite with applications that provided solutions for several core areas of internet connectivity. In order to properly test the applications, Digifonica built and operated three production nodes in Vancouver, Canada (Peer 1), London, UK (Teliasonera), and Denmark. Upon successfully developing the technology, Digifonica filed for patents with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”).

The Digifonica patents formed the basis for the Company’s current intellectual property, now a worldwide portfolio of twenty-six issued and pending patents primarily designed for the broadband VoIP market.

The Company’s intellectual property value is derived from its issued and pending patents. The inventions described in these patents, among other things, provide the means to integrate VoIP services with legacy telecommunications systems such as the public switched telephone network (PSTN) to create a seamless service using either legacy telephone numbers or IP addresses, and enhance the performance and value of VoIP implementations worldwide.

VoIP has been and continues to be a green field for innovation that has spawned numerous inventions, greatly benefiting consumers large and small across the globe. VoIP is used in many places and by every modern telephony system vendor, network supplier, and retail and wholesale carrier.

Results of Operations

The Company’s operating costs consist of expenses incurred to monetizing, selling and licensing its VoIP patents. Other operating costs include expenses for legal, accounting and other professional fees, financing costs, and other general and administrative expenses.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses for the three months ending March 31, 2023 totaled $723,968 compared to $370,869 during the same period in 2022. The increase in general and administrative expenses of $353,099, or 95% more than the previous year, was primarily due to an increase in legal and professional fees and services

General and administrative expenses for the six months ending March 31, 2023 totaled $1,230,305 compared to $637,295 during the same period in 2022. The increase in general and administrative expenses of $593,010 or 93% more than the previous year, was primarily due to an increase in legal and professional fees and services.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation for the three months ending March 31, 2023 totaled $74,574 compared to $55,750 during the same period in 2022. The increase in stock-based compensation of $18,824, or 34% more than the previous years, was primarily due to stock options vesting during the period.

Stock-based compensation for the six months ending March 31, 2023 totaled $150,805 compared to $55,750 during the same period in 2022. The increase in stock-based compensation of $95,055, or 171% more than the previous years, was primarily due to stock options vesting during the period.

AMORTIZATION AND DEPRECIATION

Amortization of intellectual VoIP communications patent properties and depreciation of capital equipment for the three months ending March 31, 2023 totaled $35,114 compared to $35,114 during the same period in 2022. There was no material change in the amount of amortization or depreciation expense during the six months ending March 31, 2023 and 2022.

The Company follows GAAP (FAS 142) and is amortizing its intangibles over the remaining patent life of twelve (12) years. The Company evaluates its intangible assets annually and determines if the fair market value is less than its historical cost. If the fair market value is less, then impairment expense is recorded on the Company’s financial statements. The intangible assets on the financial statements of the Company relate primarily to the Company’s acquisition of Digifonica (International) Limited.

OTHER ITEMS

Other items for the three and six months ending March 31, 2023, totaled $57,320 and $59,420, respectively, compared to $Nil during the same periods in 2022. The increase in other items of $59,420 was primarily due to the Company entering into settlement agreements with vendors pursuant to which they relinquished debt owed to the company.

Liquidity

The Company primarily finances its operations from cash received through the private placement of its common stock and the exercise of warrants from investors and through the payment of stock-based compensation. The Company believes its resources are adequate to fund its operations for the next 12 months.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Performance Bonus Payable

In 2016, the board of directors authorized the Company to provide a performance bonus (the “Performance Bonus”) of up to 3% of the capital stock of the Company by way of the issuance of Common shares from its treasury to an as yet undetermined group of related and non-related parties upon the occurrence of a bonusable event, defined as the successful completion of a sale of the Company or substantially all its assets, or a major licensing transaction. In order to provide maximum flexibility to the Company with respect to determining the level of Performance Bonus payable, and who may qualify to receive a pro-rata share of such a Performance Bonus, the Company authorized full discretion to the Board in making such determinations.

In 2019, the board of directors authorized the increase of the Performance Bonus to up to 10% of the capital stock of the Company. Concurrently, the directors authorized 66.67% of the Performance Bonus to be issued in an advance payment of an aggregate 127,000,000 Common shares (“Bonus Shares”) to a group of related and non-related parties, which included members of management, a director and several consultants. 30,000,000 of the Bonus Shares are restricted from trading under Rule 144 and are subject to a voluntary lock-up agreement under which they cannot be traded, pledged, hypothecated, transferred or sold by the holders until such time as the Company has met the requirements of the bonusable event as described above.

As at March 31, 2023, no bonusable event had occurred and there was no Performance Bonus payable.

Impact of Inflation

We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations for the six months ending March 31, 2023. We cannot assure you that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.

Impact of COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to the COVID-19 coronavirus. Its impact on global economies has been far-reaching and businesses around the world are being forced to cease or limit operations for long or indefinite periods of time. Measures taken to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus, including travel bans, quarantines, social distancing, and closures of non-essential services have triggered significant disruptions to businesses worldwide, resulting in an economic slowdown. Global stock markets have also experienced great volatility and significant declines. Governments and central banks have responded with monetary and fiscal interventions to stabilize economic conditions.

The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the effectiveness of government and central bank responses, remains unclear at this time. It is not possible to reliably estimate the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, nor its impact on the financial position and results of the Company in future periods. The Company is proceeding with its business activities as long as the work environment remains safe – at this point there has been minimal disruption to day-to-day operations resulting from health and safety measures. Disruptions and volatility in the global capital markets may increase the Company’s cost of capital and adversely impact access to capital.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. In management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(c), our management concluded as of the end of the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that our internal control over financial reporting has not been effective. The company intends, as its finances improve, to hire additional accounting staff and implement additional controls.

As defined by Auditing Standard No. 5, “An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting that is Integrated with an Audit of Financial Statements and Related Independence Rule and Conforming Amendments,” established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of March 31, 2023:

Our management determined that these deficiencies constituted material weaknesses. Due to a lack of financial resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until we acquire sufficient financing to do so. We will implement further controls as circumstances, cash flow, and working capital permit. Notwithstanding the assessment that our ICFR was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the years covered thereby in all material respects.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such controls.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Other than noted below, there have been no material developments during the current quarter for our legal proceedings that were disclosed in our registration statement on Form 10 filed on April 22, 2016. For a full disclosure of legal proceedings, please reference our Form 10 registration or Note 12 of the Financial Statements contained in this report.
