The Company reported net income of $693,196, compared to a net loss of $716,357 in Q1 2025. Adjusted net income was $982,741 compared to an adjusted net loss of $434,123 in Q1 2025, excluding share-based compensation, milestone-based consulting fees intended for share settlement and Smart-Rice Project R&D expenses. Operating expenses declined to $761,017 from $959,474 in Q1 2025, reflecting continued cost discipline, lower consulting and salary costs, lower professional fees and lower share-based payments, partially offset by higher Smart-Rice R&D and SG&A expenses.
