PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a leading provider of integrated wireless solutions utilizing the latest in 5G (fifth generation) and 4G LTE (fourth generation long-term evolution) technologies including mobile hotspots, routers, fixed wireless routers, and various trackers. Our integrated software subscription services provide users remote capabilities including mobile device management (MDM) and software defined wide area networking (SD-WAN).

We have majority ownership of Franklin Technology Inc. (FTI), a research and development company based in Seoul, South Korea. FTI primarily provides design and development services for our wireless products.

Our products are generally marketed and sold directly to wireless operators and indirectly through strategic partners and distributors. Our global customer base primarily extends from North America and the Caribbean and South America to Asia.

OUR STRUCTURE

We incorporated in 1982 in California and reincorporated in Nevada on January 2, 2008. The reincorporation had no effect on the nature of our business or our management. Our headquarters office is located in San Diego, California. The office is principally composed of marketing, sales, operations, finance and administrative support. It is responsible for all customer-related activities, such as marketing communications, product planning, product management and customer support, along with sales and business development activities on a worldwide basis.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Franklin Technology Inc. (“FTI”), with a majority voting interest of 66.3% (33.7% is owned by non-controlling interests) as of June 30, 2023, and 2022. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated and net earnings (loss) are reduced by the portion of the net earnings (loss) of the subsidiary applicable to non-controlling interests.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. We identify our operating segments based on how our chief operating decision maker internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility. We have one reportable segment, consisting of the sale of wireless access products. We generate revenues from three geographic areas, consisting of North America, the Caribbean and South America, and Asia. The following enterprise-wide disclosure is prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area:

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS.

The following risk factors do not purport to be a complete explanation of the risks involved in our business.

WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING FOR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. Our financial resources are sufficient for our current operational needs, however, the amount of funding required to develop and commercialize our products and technologies is highly uncertain. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or on terms satisfactory to us. Lack of funds may cause us to delay, reduce and/or abandon certain or all aspects of our development and commercialization programs. We may seek additional financing through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities. In such event, the percentage ownership of our stockholders would be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to those of our Common Stock. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to fund our expansion, take advantage of desirable acquisition opportunities, develop, or enhance services or products or respond to competitive pressures. Such inability could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial conditions.

WE MAY INFRINGE THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS. The industry in which we operate has many participants that own, or claim to own, proprietary intellectual property. In the past we have received, and in the future may receive, claims from third parties alleging that we, and possibly our customers, violate their intellectual property rights. Rights to intellectual property can be difficult to verify and litigation may be necessary to establish whether or not we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others. In many cases, these third parties are companies with substantially greater resources than us, and they may be able to, and may choose to, pursue complex litigation to a greater degree than we could. Regardless of whether these infringement claims have merit or not, we may be subject to the following:

	·	We may be liable for potentially substantial damages, liabilities, and litigation costs, including attorneys’ fees;

	·	We may be prohibited from further use of the intellectual property and may be required to cease selling our products that are subject to the claim;

	·	We may have to license the third-party intellectual property, incurring royalty fees that may or may not be on commercially reasonable terms. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully negotiate and obtain such a license from the third party;

	·	We may have to develop a non-infringing alternative, which could be costly and delay or result in the loss of sales. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to develop such a non-infringing alternative;

	·	The diversion of management’s attention and resources;

	·	Our relationships with customers may be adversely affected; and,

	·	We may be required to indemnify our customers for certain costs and damages they incur in such a claim.

In the event of an unfavorable outcome in such a claim and our inability to either obtain a license from the third party or develop a non-infringing alternative, then our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected and we may have to restructure our business.

Absent a specific claim for infringement of intellectual property, from time to time we have and expect to continue to license technology, intellectual property, and software from third parties. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain our third-party licenses or obtain new licenses when required and this inability could materially adversely affect our business and operating results and the quality and functionality of our products. In addition, there is no assurance that third party licenses we execute will be on commercially reasonable terms.

Under purchase orders and contracts for the sale of our products we may provide indemnification to our customers for potential intellectual property infringement claims for which we may have no corresponding recourse against our third-party licensors. This potential liability, if realized, could materially adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

WE OPERATE IN AN INTENSIVELY COMPETITIVE MARKET. The wireless broadband data access market is highly competitive, and we may be unable to compete effectively. Many of our competitors or potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than we do. To survive and be competitive, we will need to continuously invest in research and development, sales and marketing, and customer support. Increased competition could result in price reductions, and smaller customer orders. Our failure to compete effectively could seriously impair our business.

WE OPERATE IN THE HIGH-RISK TELECOM SECTOR. We are in a volatile industry. In addition, our revenue model is evolving and relies substantially on the assumption that we will be able to successfully complete the development and sales of our products and services in the marketplace. Our prospects must be considered in the light of the risk, uncertainties, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development and marketing new products. To be successful in the market we must, among other things:

	·	Complete development and introduction of functional and attractive products and services;

	·	Attract and maintain customer loyalty;

	·	Establish and increase awareness of our brand and develop customer loyalty;

	·	Provide desirable products and services to customers at attractive prices;

	·	Establish and maintain strategic relationships with strategic partners and affiliates;

	·	Rapidly respond to competitive and technological developments;

	·	Build operations and customer service infrastructure to support our business; and

	·	Attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel.

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve these goals, and our failure to achieve them could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We expect that revenues and operating results will fluctuate in the future. There is no assurance that any or all our efforts will produce a successful outcome.

WE OPERATE IN THE HIGH-RISK HARDWARE DESIGN INDUSTRY. We are in a volatile industry. In this industry it should be expected that:

Latent design flaws can be discovered, even after a device has been certified;

Latent component defects can be discovered in critical systems, including batteries, LCDs, chargers, and other systems;

Manufacturing defects and flaws will occur during device production.

WE OPERATE IN THE HIGH-RISK SOFTWARE INDUSTRY. This industry has numerous and significant known risks. In this industry it should be expected that:

Latent design flaws and security defects will be discovered, even after a device has been tested and approved;

Code within a program will fail to operate as intended due to updates or changes in other systems;

Hacking and malicious actions by outside parties can damage or alter coding and system integrity.

POTENTIAL DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING DEFECTS COULD OCCUR. Our product and service offerings may have quality issues from time to time, due to defects in software design, hardware design or component manufacturing. As a result, our products and services may not perform as anticipated and may not meet customer expectations. Component defects could make our products unsafe and create a risk of environmental or property damage and personal injury. There can be no assurance we will be able to detect and address all issues and defects in the hardware, software, and services we offer. Failure to do so could result in widespread technical and performance issues affecting our products and services. In addition, we may be exposed to product liability claims, recalls, product replacements or modifications, write-offs of inventory, property, plant and equipment, and/or intangible assets, and significant warranty and other expenses, including litigation costs and regulatory fines.

WE OPERATE IN A FIELD WITH RAPIDLY CHANGING TECHNOLOGY. We cannot be certain that our products and services will function as anticipated or be desirable to our intended markets. Our current or future products and services may fail to function properly, and if our products and services do not achieve and sustain market acceptance, our business, results of operations and profitability may suffer. If we are unable to predict and comply with evolving wireless standards, our ability to introduce and sell new products will be adversely affected. If we fail to develop and introduce products on time, we may lose customers and potential product orders.

WE DEPEND ON THE DEMAND FOR WIRELESS NETWORK CAPACITY. The demand for our products is completely dependent on the demand for broadband wireless access to networks. If wireless operators do not deliver acceptable wireless service, our product sales may dramatically decline. Thus, if wireless operators experience financial or network difficulties, it will likely reduce demand for our products. These are beyond our ability to control and can either increase or decrease demand for our products.

PANDEMIC OUTBREAKS CAN CAUSE VOLATILE CHANGES IN THE MARKET. Demand for wireless access can rise and fall greatly during times of pandemic outbreaks, such as COVID-19, as more people may be required to work remotely, and schools may be required to operate remote classrooms. When an outbreak ends, or becomes more controlled, demand for wireless devices could decline rapidly, decreasing demand for our products. Pandemic outbreaks can also disrupt supply chains, manufacturing operations, and shipping. These disruptions can make product fulfilment difficult, delayed, or impossible. All these changes are beyond our ability to control and can cause revenue and income to change dramatically.

WE DEPEND ON COLLABORATIVE ARRANGEMENTS. The development and commercialization of our products and services depend in large part upon our ability to selectively enter and maintain collaborative arrangements with developers, distributors, service providers, network systems providers, core wireless communications technology providers and manufacturers, among others.

THE LOSS OF ANY OF OUR MATERIAL CUSTOMERS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY, AND THEREFORE SHAREHOLDER VALUE. We depend on a small number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues. For the year ended June 30, 2023, net revenues from our two largest customers represented 61% and 31% of our consolidated net sales, respectively. We have a written agreement with each of these customers that governs the sale of products to them, but the agreements do not obligate them to purchase any quantity of products from us. If these customers were to reduce their business with us, our revenues and profitability could materially decline.

OUR PRODUCT DELIVERIES ARE SUBJECT TO LONG LEAD TIMES. We often experience long-lead times to ship products, often more than 45 days. This could cause us to lose customers, who may be able to secure faster delivery times from our competitors and require us to maintain higher levels of working capital.

OUR PRODUCT-TO-MARKET CHALLENGE IS CRITICAL. Our success depends on our ability to quickly enter the market and establish an early mover advantage. We must implement an aggressive sales and marketing campaign to solicit customers and strategic partners. Any delay could seriously affect our ability to establish and exploit effectively an early-to-market strategy.

AS OUR BUSINESS EXPANDS INTERNATIONALLY, WE WILL BE EXPOSED TO ADDITIONAL RISKS RELATING TO INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS. Our expansion into international operations exposes us to additional risks unique to such international markets, including the following:

	·	Increased credit management risks and greater difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;

	·	Unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, wireless communications standards, exchange rates, trading policies, tariffs, and other barriers;

	·	Uncertainties of laws and enforcement relating to the protection of intellectual property;

	·	Language barriers; and

	·	Potential adverse tax consequences.

Furthermore, if we are unable to further develop distribution channels in countries in North America, the Caribbean and South America, EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa), and Asia, we may not be able to grow our international operations, and our ability to increase our revenue will be negatively impacted.

We believe that our products are currently exempt from international tariffs. If this were to change at any point, a tariff of 10%-25% of the purchase price could be imposed. If such tariffs are imposed, they could have a materially adverse effect on sales and operating results.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION COULD RESULT IN INCREASED COSTS AND INABILITY TO SELL OUR PRODUCTS. Our products are subject to certain mandatory regulatory approvals in the United States and other regions in which we operate. In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission regulates many aspects of communications devices. Although we have obtained all the necessary Federal Communications Commission and other required approvals for the products we currently sell, we may not obtain approvals for future products on a timely basis, or at all. In addition, regulatory requirements may change, or we may not be able to obtain regulatory approvals from countries other than the United States in which we may desire to sell products in the future.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We lease approximately 12,775 square feet of office space in San Diego, California, at a monthly rent of $25,754, pursuant to a lease expiring in December 2023. In addition to monthly rent, the lease includes payment for certain common area costs. Our facility is covered by an appropriate level of insurance, and we believe it to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs. Rent expense related to this property was $309,053 for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Our Korea-based subsidiary, FTI, leases approximately 10,000 square feet of office space, at a monthly rent of approximately $8,000, and additional office space consisting of approximately 2,682 square feet at a monthly rent of approximately $2,700, both located in Seoul, Korea. These leases expired on August 31, 2023, and were extended for an additional twelve months to August 31, 2024. In addition to monthly rent, the leases provide for periodic cost of living increases in the base rent and payment for certain common area costs. These facilities are covered by an appropriate level of insurance, and we believe them to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs. Rent expense related to these leases was approximately $128,400 for each of the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

We lease one corporate housing facility, located in Seoul, Korea, primarily for our employees who travel, under a non-cancelable operating lease that expired on September 4, 2023, and was extended for an additional twelve months to September 4, 2024. Rent expense related to this lease was $8,095 and $8,604 for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. This report contains certain forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in this report. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information which speaks only as of the date of this report. We are not obligated to publicly update this information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent we are required to do so in connection with our obligation to file reports with the SEC. For a discussion of the important risks to our business and future operating performance, see the discussion under the caption “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and under the caption “Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations” below. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this report might not occur.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a leading provider of integrated wireless solutions utilizing the latest in 4G LTE (fourth generation long-term evolution) and 5G (fifth generation) technologies including mobile hotspots, routers, CPEs (Customer Premise Equipment), and various trackers. Our integrated software subscription services provide users remote capabilities including mobile device management (MDM) and software defined wide area networking (SD-WAN).

FACTORS THAT MAY INFLUENCE FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We believe that our revenue growth will be influenced largely by (1) the successful maintenance of our existing customers, (2) the rate of increase in demand for wireless data products, (3) customer acceptance of our new products, (4) new customer relationships and contracts, (5) our ability to meet customers’ demands, (6) our ability to maintain good relationships with our manufacturing partners and suppliers, and (7) the defect rates experienced by end users of our hardware and software products.

We have entered into and expect to continue to enter into new customer relationships and contracts for the supply of our products, and this may require significant demands on our resources, resulting in increased operating, selling, and marketing expenses associated with such new customers.

We continuously evaluate the performance of our hardware and software products to discover defects that can adversely affect our revenue, income, and the price of our stock. If defects occur that customers believe are either severe in nature or excessively frequent in occurrence, customers could stop buying our products and services and the value of our stock may decrease.

We are also seeing that demand from end-users has been shifting in the post-pandemic economy as remote education and work from home trends are declining. Current demand for mobile device management (MDM) services has been declining. We are working to improve and further enhance our software service offerings to address this change in the market.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

Contracts with Customers

Revenue from sales of products and services is derived from contracts with customers. The products and services covered by contracts primarily consist of hot spot routers. Contracts with each customer generally state the terms of the sale, including the description, quantity and price of each product or service. Payment terms are stated in the contract, primarily in the form of a purchase order. Since the customer typically agrees to a stated rate and price in the purchase order that does not vary over the life of the contract, the majority of our contracts do not contain variable consideration. We establish a provision for estimated warranty and returns. Using historical averages, that provisions for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, were not material.

Disaggregation of Revenue

In accordance with Topic 606, we disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into geographical regions and by the timing of when goods and services are transferred. We determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories meets the disclosure objective in Topic 606, which is to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by regional economic factors.

Contract Balances

We perform our obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products in exchange for consideration from the customer. We typically invoice our customers as soon as control of an asset is transferred, and a receivable is established. We, however, recognize contract liability when a customer prepays for goods and/or services, or we have not delivered goods under the contract since we have not yet transferred control of the goods and/or services.

The balances of our trade receivables are as follows:

		June 30, 2023				June 30, 2022
Accounts Receivable, net		$	8,949,802			$	1,322,619

The balance of contract assets was immaterial as we did not have a significant amount of un-invoiced receivables in the periods ended June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022.

Included in the Accounts Receivable balance as of June 30, 2022, is a passthrough amount of $837,000. These transactions were a direct result of an agreement between our vendor and our customer. There is a corresponding balance of $837,000 in our Accounts Payable account as of June 30, 2022, to offset. These balances are removed as of June 30, 2023, since these pass-through charges are unlikely to ever be collected due to the customer's refusal to pay. There were no such balances as of June 30, 2023.

Our contract liabilities, which are included in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, are as follows:

		June 30, 2023				June 30, 2022
Undelivered products		$	146,488			$	371,624

Performance Obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good and/or service to the customer and is the unit of measurement in Topic 606. At contract inception, we assess the products and/or services promised in our contracts with customers. We then identify performance obligations to transfer distinct products and/or services to the customer. To identify performance obligations, we consider all the products or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices.

Our performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from products transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for over 99% of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Revenue for non-recurring engineering projects is based on the percentage completion of a project and accounted for under 1% of net sales for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Most of our revenue that is recognized at a point in time is for the sale of hot-spot router products. Revenue from these contracts is recognized when the customer can direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product, which generally coincides with title transfer at completion of the shipping process.

As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, our contracts do not contain any unsatisfied performance obligations, except for undelivered products.

Capitalized Product Development Costs

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” includes software that is part of a product or process to be sold to a customer and shall be accounted for under Subtopic 985-20. Our products contain embedded software internally developed by FTI, which is an integral part of these products because it allows the various components of the products to communicate with each other and the products are clearly unable to function without this coding.

The costs of product development that are capitalized once technological feasibility is determined (noted as Technology in progress in the Intangible Assets table, in Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) include certifications, licenses, payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. We determine that technological feasibility for our products is reached after all high-risk development issues have been resolved. Once the products are available for general release to our customers, we cease capitalizing the product development costs and any additional costs, if any, are expensed. The capitalized product development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis using the straight-line amortization. The amortization begins when the products are available for general release to our customers.

As of June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022, capitalized product development costs in progress were $203,838 and $187,343, respectively, and these amounts are included in intangible assets in our consolidated balance sheets. During the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred $1,631,376 and $658,544, respectively in capitalized product development costs, and all costs incurred before technological feasibility is reached are expensed and included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of the assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted 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. As of June 30, 2023, we have federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, we have federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.3 million and $40,000, respectively.

Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”), which was signed into law on December 22, 2017, the federal net operating loss of approximately $2.5 million, which was recognized on or after January 1, 2018, will carry forward indefinitely. The state net operating loss of approximately $0.5 million will begin to expire through 2043. The utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitations under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions.

Under the provision of ASC 740 “Application of the Uncertain Tax Position Provisions” related to accounting for uncertain tax positions, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements, uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. Tax benefits of an uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained based on technical merits.

YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2023, COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022

NET SALES - Net sales increased by $21,950,754, or 91.5%, to $45,948,516 for the year ended June 30, 2023 from $23,997,762 for the corresponding period of 2022. For the year ended June 30, 2023, net sales by geographic regions, consisting of North America, the Caribbean and South America, and Asia were $45,782,084 (99.6% of net sales), $0 (0.0% of net sales), and $166,432 (0.4% of net sales), respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2022, net sales by geographic regions, consisting of North America, the Caribbean and South America, and Asia were $23,305,366 (97.1% of net sales), $2,375 (0.0% of net sales), and $690,021 (2.9% of net sales), respectively.

Net sales in North America increased by $22,476,718, or 96.4%, to $45,782,084 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $23,305,366 for the corresponding period of 2022. The increase in net sales in North America was primarily due to the new demand for two newly launched wireless products from a major carrier customer (approximately $14M newly generated revenue) which did not purchase our products during the fiscal year 2022, and the increased demand by approximately $11M, or 66%, for our wireless products from the existing major carrier customer compared to the fiscal year 2022, which were offset by the decreased demands from other customers.

Net sales in the Caribbean and South America decreased by $2,375, or 100%, to $0 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $2,375 for the corresponding period of 2022. Net sales in Asia decreased by $523,589, or 75.9%, to $166,432 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $690,021 for the corresponding period of 2022. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to the one-time revenue generated from the material sales by FTI for the fiscal year 2022, which was partially offset by the revenue generated from the demand for one newly launched wireless product by FTI (approximately $160,000) for the year ended June 30, 2023.

GROSS PROFIT- Gross profit increased by $3,204,159, or 84.0%, to $7,020,742 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $3,816,583 for the corresponding period of 2022. The gross profit in terms of net sales percentage was 15.3% for the year ended June 30, 2023, compared to 15.9% for the corresponding period of 2022. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the change in net sales as described above. The decrease in gross profit in terms of net sales percentage was the mixed results of competitive selling prices and the increase in production costs of the launched products.

OPERATING EXPENSES - Operating expenses increased by $578,842, or 6.6%, to $9,370,317 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $8,791,475 for the corresponding period of 2022.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $942,309 to $5,451,653 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $4,509,344 for the corresponding period of 2022. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily due to the increased payroll expenses (excluding payroll expense for employees involved in research and development) and compensation expenses related to stock options granted for employees of approximately $230,000 and $165,000, respectively, and the increased legal expenses of $195,000.

Research and development expenses decreased by $363,467 to $3,918,664 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $4,282,131 for the corresponding period of 2022. The decrease in research and development expense was primarily due to the mix of the timing of research and development activities and the number of active projects, which typically vary from period to period. For the year ended June 30, 2023, the research and development expenses decreased by approximately $450,000, which is partially offset by the increased payroll expenses for employees involved in research and development of approximately $89,000.

OTHER INCOME, NET - Other income, net decreased by $1,747,162, or 658.3%, to $1,481,743 for the year ended June 30, 2023, from $265,419 for the corresponding period of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the loss from the agreement in principle to settle a legal action of $2,400,000 and the increased loss from unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates in FTI of approximately $184,000, which were offset by the increased interest income earned from the money market accounts and certificates of deposit of approximately $388,000, the increased unrealized gain from an investment account of approximately $340,000, and the increased gain from forgiven liabilities of approximately $199,000.

YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022, COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2021

NET SALES - Net sales decreased by $160,117,583, or 87.0%, to $23,997,762 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $184,115,345 for the corresponding period of 2021. For the year ended June 30, 2022, net sales by geographic regions, consisting of North America, the Caribbean and South America, and Asia were $23,305,366 (97.1% of net sales), $2,375 (0.0% of net sales), and $690,021 (2.9% of net sales), respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2021, net sales by geographic regions, consisting of North America, the Caribbean and South America, and Asia were $183,771,146 (99.8% of net sales), $17,500 (0.0% of net sales), and $326,699 (0.2% of net sales), respectively.

Net sales in North America decreased by $160,465,780, or 87.3%, to $23,305,366 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $183,771,146 for the corresponding period of 2021. The decrease in net sales in North America was primarily due to the reduction of demand for wireless products from one major carrier customer, resulting from the unprecedented high volume of demand for wireless products during the prior period, which coincided with the early stages of the Covid-19 Pandemic period. Net sales in the Caribbean and South America decreased by $15,125, or 86.4%, to $2,375 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $17,500 for the corresponding period of 2021. Net sales in Asia increased by $363,322, or 111.2%, to $690,021 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $326,699 for the corresponding period of 2021. The increase in net sales was primarily due to the revenue generated from the material sales by FTI, which typically vary from period to period.

GROSS PROFIT- Gross profit decreased by $28,647,438, or 88.2%, to $3,816,583 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $32,464,021 for the corresponding period of 2021. The gross profit in terms of net sales percentage was 15.9% for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to 17.6% for the corresponding period of 2021. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to the change in net sales as described above. The decrease in gross profit in terms of net sales percentage was primarily due to variations in customer and product mix, competitive selling prices and product costs which generally vary from period to period and region to region.

OPERATING EXPENSES - Operating expenses decreased by $854,236, or 8.9%, to $8,791,475 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $9,645,711 for the corresponding period of 2021.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased by $568,504 to $4,509,344 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $5,077,848 for the corresponding period of 2021. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily due to decreased shipping and handling charges of approximately $480,000, decreased payroll expense as well as bad debt expense of approximately $340,000, which are partially offset by the increased compensation expense related to stock options granted for employees and amortization expense of approximately $165,000 and $141,000, respectively.

OTHER INCOME, NET - Other income, net decreased by $351,748, or 57.0%, to $265,419 for the year ended June 30, 2022, from $617,167 for the corresponding period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the forgiveness of the Payroll Protection Plan loan during the fiscal year 2021, with no similar transaction in fiscal year 2022, as well as decreased product development funding received by FTI from a government entity. This was partially offset by the gain from the favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates in FTI and the increased interest income earned from the money market accounts and certificates of deposit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our historical operating results, capital resources and financial position, in combination with current projections and estimates, were considered in management's plan and intentions to fund our operations over a reasonable period of time, which we define as the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2023. For the purposes of liquidity disclosures, we assess the likelihood that we have sufficient available working capital and other principal sources of liquidity to fund our operating activities and obligations as they become due.

Our principal source of liquidity as of June 30, 2023, consisted of cash and cash equivalents as well as short-term investments of $38,969,599. We believe we have sufficient available capital to cover our existing operations and obligations through at least June 30, 2024. Our long-term future cash requirements will depend on numerous factors, including our revenue base, profit margins, product development activities, market acceptance of our products, future expansion plans and ability to control costs. If we are unable to achieve our current business plan or secure additional funding that may be required, we would need to curtail our operations or take other similar actions outside the ordinary course of business in order to continue to operate as a going concern.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES – Net cash used in operating activities for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $1,882,114 and $7,407,355, respectively.

The $1,882,114 in net cash used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to the increase in accounts receivable of $7,601,489 as well as our operating results (net loss adjusted for depreciation, amortization, and other non-cash charges), which was offset by the increase of accounts payable and accrued legal contingency expense of $4,905,499 and $2,400,000, respectively. The $7,407,355 in net cash used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the increase in inventory and decrease in accounts payable of $3,222,344 and $1,537,287, respectively, as well as our operating results (net loss adjusted for depreciation, amortization, and other non-cash charges), which was offset by the decrease of accounts receivable of $1,205,938.

INVESTING ACTIVITIES – Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 was $12,109,183 and $11,675,028, respectively.

The $12,109,183 in net cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to the purchases of short-term investments of $10,391,654 and capitalized product development of $1,631,376. The $11,675,028 in net cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to the purchases of short-term investments and capitalized product development of $10,950,625 and $658,544, respectively.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES – Net cash provided by financing activities for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $42,943 and $75,445, respectively.

The $42,943 in net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2023 was from the exercise of stock options of $45,000, which was offset by loan to an employee of $2,057. The $75,445 in net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2022 was from the exercise of stock options.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and commitments as of June 30, 2023, and the effect such obligations could have on our liquidity and cash flow in future periods:

	Payments due by June 30,
	2024		2025		Total
Legal contingency expense	$	2,400,000	$	–	$	2,400,000
Operating lease		160,965		–		160,965
Total Obligations	$	2,560,965	$	–	$	2,560,965

On April 16, 2021, an action was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California against the Company and two of its officers relating to the timing of the disclosure of a recall of certain Jetpack products supplied by the Company to Verizon. The agreement was memorialized in a memorandum of understanding (the “Memorandum of Understanding”) which was fully executed on May 3, 2023. The Memorandum of Understanding was formalized in a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement (the “Settlement Agreement”) that was executed on May 23, 2023, and filed with the Court on May 24, 2023. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Company will pay $2.4 million (the “Settlement Amount”) into an escrow account maintained by Huntington National Bank subject to the approval of the Court. The terms and conditions expressly provided within the Settlement Agreement, such Settlement fully, finally and forever settles, releases, resolves and dismisses with prejudice all claims asserted against the Company. This agreement is still pending final approval by the Federal Court as of the date of this filing.

LEASES

Refer to ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

FUTURE LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

For the next twelve months, we may require in excess of $5 million for capital expenditures, software licenses and for testing and certifying new products.

We believe we will be able to fund our future cash requirements for operations from our cash available, operating cash flows, bank lines of credit and issuance of equity securities. We believe these sources of funds will be sufficient to continue our operations and planned capital expenditures. However, we will be required to raise additional debt or equity capital if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to fund the expansion of our sales and to satisfy the related working capital requirements for the next twelve months. Our ability to satisfy such obligations also depends upon our future performance, which in turn is subject to general economic conditions and regional risks, and to financial, business and other factors affecting our operations, including factors beyond our control. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors” included in this report.

If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our obligations and commitments, we will be required to raise additional debt or equity capital. Additionally, we may be required to sell material assets or operations or delay or forego expansion opportunities. We might not be able to effect these alternative strategies to raise funds including credit lines and loans, on satisfactory terms, if at all.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of OC Kim, our President, and Bill Bauer, our Acting Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President and the Acting Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal accounting officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act or in other factors that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 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 of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

To evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management conducted an assessment, using the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, (specifically the 2013 framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, management concluded that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023.

______________________

(1)

On 7/14/2023, the board of directors appointed Mr. Lee as Senior Vice President of Sales who previously served as Chief Operating Officer. This change did not affect his compensation.

OC Kim has been our President, CEO and a Director since 2003. Prior to joining Franklin Wireless, Mr. Kim was the CEO and President of Accetio Inc., a company he founded that developed modules for the wireless telecommunication industry. In 2003, Accetio Inc. merged with Franklin Telecommunications Corp. and was renamed Franklin Wireless Corp. He was a general manager of Kolon California Corp., one of Korea's most prominent conglomerates. While at Kolon Data Communications, in Korea, Mr. Kim helped introduce the first generation of CDMA phones to the Korean market through his work with Qualcomm Personal Electronics (QPE), a joint venture between Qualcomm Incorporated and Sony Electronics Inc. Mr. Kim began his career at Lucky Goldstar (LG) Electronics. He has almost 30 years of experience in sales, marketing, and operations management in the telecommunications and information systems industries. He earned a B.A. from Sogang University in Korea. We believe Mr. Kim’s qualifications to serve as a director of the Company include his extensive business, operational and management experience in the wireless industry, including his current position as the Company’s President. In addition, his knowledge of the Company’s business, products, strategic relationships and future opportunities is of great value to the Company.

Gary Nelson has been a director since September 2003. Mr. Nelson was an early investor in Franklin Telecommunications Corp. in the 1980’s and served as a director from 2001 up until the Company’s merger with Accetio Inc. in September 2003, at which time the Company was renamed Franklin Wireless Corp. Following the merger, Mr. Nelson became a director and ultimately Chairman of the Board of Franklin Wireless Corp. He was co-founder and President of Churchill Mortgage Corporation, an income property mortgage banking firm based in Los Angeles, California, which was a loan correspondent for major life insurance companies and other financial institutions. In addition, Mr. Nelson was the Chief Operating Officer of Churchill Mortgage Capital, which was the loan origination arm of Churchill Mortgage Corporation. Mr. Nelson’s prior experience includes various marketing positions with Control Data Corporation and design engineering positions with North American Aviation where he worked on the Apollo Project. He holds a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Kansas State University and an MBA from the University of Southern California. We believe that Mr. Nelson’s qualifications to serve as a director of the Company include his many years of business, operational and management experience including his previous position as President of Churchill Mortgage Corporation. In addition, Mr. Nelson has served as a director of the Company for 14 years, and brings a valuable historical perspective on the development of the Company’s business and its leadership.

Johnathan Chee has been a director since September 2009. He is an attorney and has owned the Law Offices of Johnathan Chee, in Niles, Illinois, since August 2007. Mr. Chee has represented clients in various business dealings and negotiations with Ameritech, SBC, Sprint and several wireless carriers in Latin America. Between 1998 and 2007, he served as an attorney with the C&S Law Group, P.C., in Glenview, Illinois. He holds a B.A. from the University of Illinois-Chicago and a J.D. from IIT Chicago-Kent College of Law. He is a member of the Illinois Bar Association.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS

On October 1, 2020, we entered into Change of Control Agreements with OC Kim, our President, and Yun J. (David) Lee, our Chief Operating Officer. Each Change of Control Agreement provides for a lump sum payment to the officer in case of a change of control of the Company. The term includes the acquisition of Common Stock of the Company resulting in one person or company owning more than 50% of the outstanding shares, a significant change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company during any 12-month period, a reorganization, merger, consolidation or similar transaction resulting in the transfer of ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's outstanding Common Stock, or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or sale of substantially all of the Company's assets. These agreements were for an initial term of three years but have now been extended through October 2024.

The Change of Control Agreement with Mr. Kim calls for a payment of $5 million upon a change of control, and the agreement with Mr. Lee calls for a payment of $2 million upon a change of control.

On November 10, 2022, the Company and OC Kim, its President, entered into an amendment of the employment letter agreement dated September 7, 2021. The amendment provides for a severance payment of $3 million if Mr. Kim voluntarily terminates his employment by the Company or if he voluntarily terminates his employment due to a “change in circumstances,” generally defined as a material breach by the Company of its salary and benefit obligations or a significant reduction in Mr. Kim’s title or responsibilities. In the case of a termination of employment by the Company for cause (generally defined as conviction of a felony, or a misdemeanor where imprisonment is imposed, commission of any act of theft, fraud, dishonesty, or material falsification of any employment or Company records, or improper disclosure of the Company's confidential or proprietary information), the Company is to make a severance payment of $1,500,000. In either case, any unvested options become immediately vested.

In the amendment, Mr. Kim also agrees that, for a period of two years after termination, he will not disparage the Company or its officers, solicit any of its employees to terminate their employment, or disclose any of the Company’s proprietary information.

In addition, the amendment provides for the payment of an incentive bonus to Mr. Kim of $125,000 for each calendar quarter during the remaining four-year term of the employment letter, with the first such bonus due on December 31, 2022.

The Change in Control Agreement with Mr. Kim, dated October 1, 2020, has not been terminated and remains in effect at this time.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

GENERAL PHILOSOPHY- We compensate our executive officers through a mix of base salary, incentive compensation and stock options. Our compensation policies are designed to be competitive with comparable employers and to align management’s incentives with both near-term and long-term interests of our stockholders. We use informal methods of benchmarking our executive compensation, based on the experience of our directors or, in some cases, studies of industry standards. Our compensation is negotiated on a case by case basis, with attention being given to the amount of compensation necessary to make a competitive offer and the relative compensation among our executive officers.

BASE SALARIES – We want to provide our senior management with a level of cash compensation in the form of base salary that facilitates an appropriate lifestyle given their professional status and accomplishments.

INCENTIVE COMPENSATION – Our practice is to award cash bonuses based upon performance objectives set by the Board of Directors. We maintain a bonus plan which provides our executive officers to earn cash bonuses based on the achievement of performance targets. The performance targets are set by the Board of Directors, and our executive officers are eligible to receive bonuses on a quarterly basis. The actual amount of incentive compensation paid to our executive officers is in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

SEVERANCE BENEFITS – We are generally an “at-will” employer and have no employment agreements with severance benefits; however, we have entered into Change of Control Agreements with OC Kim & David Lee, and a severance agreement with OC Kim that provides him with a lump sum payment in the event he leaves the Company.

RETIREMENT PLANS – In January 2022, we implemented the CalSavers retirement program, an automatic enrollment individual retirement account (IRA). The program is a voluntary participation program, and all employees have the option to participate in this program if they choose to do so.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Franklin Wireless Corp.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Franklin Wireless Corp. and its subsidiary (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2023, and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated 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, 2023, and 2022 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

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

F-2

Description of the Matter

Legal Proceedings

As described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, management records liabilities for legal proceedings in those instances where it can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss and when loss is probable. Where the reasonable estimate of the probable loss is a range, management records as an accrual in its consolidated financial statements the most likely estimate of the loss, or the low end of the range if there is no one best estimate. Management either discloses the amount of a possible loss or range of loss in excess of established accruals if estimable, or states that such an estimate cannot be made. Management discloses significant legal proceedings even where liability is not probable or the amount of the liability is not estimable, or both, if management believes there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred.

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to legal proceedings is a critical audit matter are the significant judgment by management when assessing the likelihood of a loss being incurred and when estimating the loss or range of loss for each claim, which in turn led to significant auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s assessment of the liabilities and disclosures associated with legal proceedings.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included determining the likelihood of a loss and whether the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, as well as evaluating disclosures citing the compliance with the financial reporting framework. These procedures also included, among others, obtaining and evaluating the letters of audit inquiry with internal and external legal counsel, evaluating the reasonableness of management’s assessment regarding whether an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible or probable and reasonably estimable, and evaluating the sufficiency of the Company’s disclosures related to legal proceedings and accounting in the consolidated financial statements.

We have served as the Company’s auditors since 2020.

FRANKLIN WIRELESS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BUSINESS OVERVIEW

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary with a majority voting interest of approximately 66.3% (approximately 33.7% is owned by non-controlling interests) as of June 30, 2023, and 2022. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated and net earnings are reduced by the portion of the net earnings of the subsidiary applicable to non-controlling interests.

As consolidated financial statements are based on the assumption that they represent the financial position and operating results of a single economic entity, the retained earnings or deficit of the subsidiary at the date of acquisition, October 1, 2009, by the parent are excluded from consolidated retained earnings. When a subsidiary is consolidated, the consolidated financial statements include the subsidiary’s revenues, expenses, gains, and losses only from the date the subsidiary is initially consolidated, and the non-controlling interest is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the parent’s equity. There are no shares of the Company held by any subsidiaries as of June 30, 2023, or June 30, 2022.

Non-controlling Interest in a Consolidated Subsidiary

As of June 30, 2023, the non-controlling interest was $ 1,487,967, which represents a $81,638 decrease from $1,569,605 as of June 30, 2022. The decrease in the non-controlling interest of $81,638 was from loss in the subsidiary of $242,554 incurred for the year ended June 30, 2023.

F-8

Segment Reporting

We shall generate revenues from three geographic areas, consisting of North America, the Caribbean and South America, and Asia. The following enterprise-wide disclosure is prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area:

Segment information by geographic areas
	Fiscal Year Ended June 30,
Net sales:	2023		2022
North America	$	45,782,084	$	23,305,366
Caribbean and South America		–		2,375
Asia		166,432		690,021
Totals	$	45,948,516	$	23,997,762

Long lived assets by geographic area
Long-lived assets, net (property and equipment and intangible assets):	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
United States	$	2,083,902	$	1,374,747
Asia		198,070		81,261
Totals	$	2,281,972	$	1,456,008

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. We invest our excess cash into financial instruments which are readily convertible into cash, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit (see Note 3).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated 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. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Based upon our review of our collection history as well as the current balances associated with all significant customers and associated invoices, we do not believe an allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary as of June 30, 2023, and 2022.

F-9

Cash Flows Reporting

We follow ASC 230, Statements of Cash Flows, for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category. We use the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and all items that are included in net (loss) income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments.

Related Parties

We follow ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of our management and policies of the Company. (Refer to NOTE 11–RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS)

Foreign Currency Translations

We have a majority-owned subsidiary in foreign country, South Korea. Fluctuations in foreign currency impact the amount of total assets, liabilities, earnings and cash flows that we report for our foreign subsidiary upon the translation of these amounts into U.S. Dollars for, and as of the end of, each reporting period. In particular, the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar generally will reduce the reported amount of our foreign-denominated cash, cash equivalents, total revenues and total expense that we translate into U.S. Dollars and report in our consolidated financial statements for, and as of the end of, each reporting period. However, a majority of our consolidated revenue is denominated in U.S. Dollars, and therefore, our revenue is not directly subject to foreign currency risk.

In accordance with FASB ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters", when an operation has transactions denominated in a currency other than its functional currency, they are measured in the functional currency. Changes in the expected functional currency cash flows caused by changes in exchange rates are included in net income for the period.

Leases

In accordance with ASC 842, “Leases”, we determine whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. A lease is a contract that provides the right to control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For identified leases, we determine whether it should be classified as an operating or finance lease. Operating leases are recorded in the balance sheet as right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and operating lease obligation. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payment arising from the lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease and measure based on the present value of lease payment over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes deferred rent liabilities. Our lease arrangement generally does not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, in such situations, we use its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option in the measurement of its ROU assts and liabilities.

Lease expense for operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We are also electing not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases of twelve months or less and instead will recognize lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

F-10

Revenue Recognition

Contracts with Customers

Disaggregation of Revenue

In accordance with Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, we disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into geographical regions and by the timing of when goods and services are transferred. We determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories meets the disclosure objective in Topic 606, which is to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by regional economic factors.

Contract Balances

The balances of our trade receivables are as follows:

Schedule of receivables
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
Accounts Receivable, net	$	8,949,802	$	1,322,619

The balance of contract assets was immaterial as we did not have a significant amount of un-invoiced receivables in the periods ended June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022.

Our contract liabilities, which are included in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, are as follows:

Schedule of contract liabilities
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
Undelivered products	$	146,488	$	371,624

F-11

Performance Obligations

Our performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from products transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for over 99% of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. Revenue for non-recurring engineering projects is based on the percentage completion of a project and accounted for under 1% of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. Most of our revenue that is recognized at a point in time is for the sale of hot-spot router products. Revenue from these contracts is recognized when the customer can direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product, which generally coincides with title transfer at completion of the shipping process.

As of June 30, 2023, and 2022, our contracts do not contain any unsatisfied performance obligations, except for undelivered products.

Cost of Goods Sold

All costs associated with our contract manufacturers, as well as distribution, fulfillment and repair services, are included in our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold also includes amortization expenses of approximately $800,000 and $500,000 associated with capitalized product development costs associated with complete technology for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Capitalized Product Development Costs

As of June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022, capitalized product development costs in progress were $203,838 and $187,343, respectively, and these amounts are included in intangible assets in our consolidated balance sheets. During the year ended June 30, 2023, we incurred $1,631,376 in capitalized product development costs, and all costs incurred before technological feasibility is reached are expensed and included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Research and Development Costs

Costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were $3,918,664 and $4,282,131 for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

F-12

Warranties

We provide a warranty for one year which is covered by our vendors and manufacturers under purchase agreements between the Company and the vendors. As a result, we believe we do not have any net warranty exposure and do not accrue any warranty expenses. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material net warranty expenditures.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Costs associated with product shipping and handling are expensed as incurred. Shipping and handling costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the statements of comprehensive income, were $234,681 and $246,290 for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, we consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We invest our excess cash into financial instruments which management believes are readily convertible into cash, such as money market funds that are readily convertible to cash and have a $1.00 net asset value.

Short Term Investments

We have invested excess funds in short term liquid assets, such as certificates of deposit or money market funds.

Inventories

Our inventories consist of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. We assess the inventory carrying value and reduce it, if necessary, to its net realizable value based on customer orders on hand, and internal demand forecasts using management’s best estimates given information currently available. Our customer demand is highly unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly caused by factors beyond our control. We may write down our inventory value for potential obsolescence and excess inventory. As of June 30, 2023, and 2022, we have recorded inventory reserves in the amount of $585,274 and $557,155, respectively, for inventories that we have identified as obsolete or slow-moving.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant additions or improvements extending the useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs of revenue nature are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Useful lives of property and equipment
Machinery		6 years
Office equipment		5 years
Molds		3 years
Vehicles		5 years
Computers and software		5 years
Furniture and fixtures		7 years
Facilities improvements		5 years or life of the lease, whichever is shorter

F-13

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and certain intangible assets were recorded in connection with the FTI acquisition in October 2009, and were accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and intangible net assets acquired. Intangible assets are recorded at their fair value at the date of acquisition. Goodwill and other intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and any related impairment losses are recognized in earnings when identified. No impairment was recognized during the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022.

Intangible Assets

The definite lived intangible assets consisted of the following as of June 30, 2023:


Definite lived intangible assets:	Expected Life	Average Remaining life		Gross Intangible Assets		Less Accumulated Amortization		Net Intangible Assets

Total as of June 30, 2022				$	2,794,789		1,444,733		1,350,056

Amortization expense recognized during the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 was $839,595 and $579,012, respectively. The amortization expenses of the definite lived intangible assets for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

Schedule of future amortization expense
	FY2024		FY2025		FY2026		FY2027		FY2028		Thereafter
Total	$	954,166	$	721,265	$	263,918	$	18,296	$	11,148	$	8,253

F-14

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” we review for impairment of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. We consider the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable based upon our review of the following events or changes in circumstances: the asset’s ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; loss of legal ownership or title to the assets; significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset; or significant negative industry or economic trends. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying amount.

We are not aware of any events or changes in circumstances during the year ended June 30, 2023, that would indicate that the long-lived assets are impaired.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company’s employee share-based awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on an award’s grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the award’s vesting period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Transactions with non-employees in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur. Stock-based compensation costs are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income based upon the underlying recipients' roles within the Company.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets, unless it is more likely than not such assets will be realized. Current income taxes are based on the year’s taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes and the annual change in deferred taxes.

The Company assesses its income tax positions and records tax benefits based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date. For those tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company records the largest amount of tax benefit with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit is recognized in the financial statements. The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with such uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

(Loss) Earnings per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

In accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per share”, basic (loss) earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of common shares that were outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential common shares. Diluted (loss) earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net (loss) income by the sum of the weighted-average number of dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method or the as-converted method. Potentially dilutive shares are comprised of common stock options outstanding under our stock plan. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

F-15

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We extend credit to our customers and perform ongoing credit evaluations of such customers. We evaluate our accounts receivable on a regular basis for collectability and provide an allowance for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. No reserve was required or recorded for any of the periods presented.

Substantially all of our revenues are derived from sales of wireless data products. Any significant decline in market acceptance of our products or in the financial condition of our existing customers could impair our ability to operate effectively.

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of customers. For the year ended June 30, 2023, net sales to our two largest customers represented approximately 61% and 31% of our consolidated net sales, respectively, and 27% and 69% of our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2023. For the year ended June 30, 2022, net sales to our two largest customers represented 70% and 13% of our consolidated net sales, respectively, and 0% of our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2022. No other customer accounted for more than ten percent of total net sales.

For the year ended June 30, 2023, we purchased the majority of our wireless data products from three manufacturing companies located in Asia. If they were to experience delays, capacity constraints or quality control problems, product shipments to our customers could be delayed, or our customers could consequently elect to cancel the underlying product purchase order, which would negatively impact our revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2023, we purchased wireless data products from these suppliers in the amount of $37,505,858, or 99.6% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $12,598,741 as of June 30, 2023. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we purchased wireless data products from our two suppliers in the amount of $22,319,313, or 98.3% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $7,409,273 as of June 30, 2022.

We maintain our cash accounts with established commercial banks. Such cash deposits exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit of $250,000 for each financial institution. However, we do not anticipate any losses on excess deposits.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50). The ASU requires disclosure of the key terms of outstanding supplier finance programs and a rollforward of the related obligations. The ASU does not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the rollforward requirement, which is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023. There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value accounting is applied for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity, associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets or liabilities are as follows:

·	Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.
·	Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, 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 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

F-16

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and debt, are calculated based on their approximate their fair values due to the short period of time to maturity or repayment. We invest our excess cash into financial instruments which management believes are readily convertible into cash, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit.

NOTE 4 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consisted of the following as of:

F-18

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of the assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted 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. We have evaluated the available evidence supporting the realization of our gross deferred tax assets, including the amount and timing of forecasted future taxable income. Management determined it is more likely than not that the federal deferred tax assets will be fully realized, and no valuation allowance is necessary as of June 30, 2023, or 2022.

As of June 30, 2023, we have federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was signed into law on December 22, 2017, the federal net operating loss of approximately $2.5 million, which was recognized on or after January 1, 2018, will carry forward indefinitely. There is $0 federal net operating loss, which was recognized on or before December 31, 2017. The state net operating loss of approximately $0.5 million will begin to expire through 2043. The utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitations under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions.

We apply the provisions of ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertain tax positions, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Under this provision, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. Tax benefits of an uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained based on technical merits.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of unrecognized tax benefits, which have been considered in the Company's computation of its deferred tax assets, is as follows:

Schedule of unrecognized tax benefits
Balance as of June 30, 2021	$	335,259
Gross increase		29,789
Balance as of June 30, 2022		365,048
Gross increase		23,968
Balance as of June 30, 2023	$	389,016

We do not anticipate any material change in the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to occur within the next twelve months. ASC 740 requires us to accrue interest and penalties where there is an underpayment of taxes based on our best estimate of the amount ultimately to be paid. Our policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense. We have not recorded any interest or penalties as the liability associated with the unrecognized tax benefits is immaterial. We are subject to taxation in the U.S., and various state and foreign jurisdictions.

NOTE 7 – (LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE

We report (loss) earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic (loss) earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) earnings per share represent basic earnings per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding stock options by using the treasury stock method that the proceeds we receive from an in-the-money option exercise are used towards repurchasing common shares in the market.

F-19

For the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, we were in a net loss position and have excluded 647,001 and 766,001 stock options from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because these securities are anti-dilutive.

The weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute loss per share is as follows:

Schedule of earnings per share
	Year Ended June 30,
	2023			2022
Net loss attributable to Parent Company	$	(2,863,021	)	$	(3,762,848	)

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02 (Topic 842). Topic 842 amended several aspects of lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize leases with a term greater than one year as a right-of-use asset and corresponding liability, measured at the present value of the lease payments. In July 2018, the FASB issued supplemental adoption guidance and clarification to Topic 842 within ASU 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements.” The new guidance aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. A modified retrospective application is required with an option to not restate comparative periods in the period of adoption.

We adopted ASC 842 as of July 1, 2019. We had an operating lease principally for both Franklin Wireless Corp. and Franklin Technologies Inc., in accordance with ASC 842. Adoption of the standard resulted in the initial recognition of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities of $1,501,203 and $1,507,367, respectively, as of July 1, 2019, with the difference due to the existing lease liabilities of $6,164.

We determine whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. A lease is a contract that provides the right to control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Operating leases are recorded in the balance sheet as right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and operating lease obligation. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payment arising from the lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease and measure based on the present value of lease payment over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes deferred rent liabilities. Our lease arrangement generally does not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, in such situations, we use its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option in the measurement of its ROU assets and liabilities. Lease expense for operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We are also electing not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases of twelve months or less and instead will recognize lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

F-20

On September 9, 2015, we signed a lease for new office space consisting of approximately 12,775 square feet, located in San Diego, California, which commenced on October 28, 2015. In addition to monthly rent, the new lease includes payment for certain common area costs. The term of the lease for the new office space was four years from the lease commencement date and was then extended at a monthly rent of $25,754, by an additional fifty months to December 31, 2023. Our facility is covered by an appropriate level of insurance, and we believe it to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs.

Our Korea-based subsidiary, FTI, leases approximately 10,000 square feet of office space, at a monthly rent of approximately $8,000, and additional office space consisting of approximately 2,682 square feet at a monthly rent of approximately $2,700, both located in Seoul, Korea. These leases expired on August 31, 2023, and were extended by an additional twelve months to August 31, 2024. In addition to monthly rent, the leases provide for periodic cost of living increases in the base rent and payment for certain common area costs. These facilities are covered by an appropriate level of insurance, and we believe them to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs. We lease one corporate housing facility, located in Seoul, Korea, primarily for our employees who travel, under a non-cancelable operating lease that expired on September 4, 2023, and were extended by an additional twelve months to September 4, 2024. Short-term leases with initial terms of twelve months or less are not capitalized, and our leases of the South Korean offices and corporate housing facility have been considered as short-term lease.

The components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 are as follows:

As of June 30, 2023, we used discount rates of 4.0% in determining our operating lease liabilities for the office spaces in San Diego, California. This rate represented our incremental borrowing rates at that time. Short-term leases with initial terms of twelve months or less are not capitalized, and our lease of the South Korean offices has been considered as short-term lease. Our San Diego office lease was extension of previous lease and did not contain any further extension provisions. Rent expenses for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 were $445,548 and $446,057, respectively. In accordance with ASC 842, the components of the lease expense were as follows:

Schedule of components of lease expense
	Years ended June 30,
	2023		2022
Operating lease expense	$	309,053	$	328,650
Short term lease cost		136,495		117,407
Total lease expense	$	445,548	$	446,057

Remaining lease term-operating leases		0.5 year

Litigation

We are from time to time involved in certain legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.

Verizon Jetpack Recall

On April 8, 2021, Verizon issued a press release announcing that it was working with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to conduct a voluntary recall of certain Verizon Ellipsis Jetpack mobile hotspot devices, indicating that the lithium-ion battery in the devices can overheat, posing a fire and burn hazard. According to the CPSC release, the recall affects approximately 2.5 million devices. We import the devices and supply them to Verizon.

Verizon first advised us of one alleged Jetpack device failure at the end of February 2021. We immediately began meeting with Verizon and requested access to the device. We also began internal testing to evaluate device performance. We did not receive any further incident information until the last week of March 2021. On April 1, 2021 we issued a press release announcing that we had received reports from Verizon about potential issues with the batteries in the devices. On April 9, 2021 we issued a press release announcing the voluntary recall by Verizon.

As of the date of this report, we have been unable to recreate any device failures of the type identified by Verizon. All internal testing conducted to date has confirmed that the Jetpack devices are performing within normal parameters. We are not currently aware of any aspect of the Jetpack design that could cause the devices to fail in the way described in Verizon’s recall notice.

Future Impact on Financial Performance

We are striving to avoid any litigation with Verizon arising from the recall and have not been served with any legal action by Verizon relating to the products covered by the recall. We are not currently able to estimate the financial impact of the recall on our future operations. At this time, we do not have information that identifies the cause of the alleged incidents. We also do not have any specific legal claims or theories of causation for device failure incidents that would help us estimate the cost of potential future litigation. No liability has been recorded for this litigation because the Company believes that any such liability is not probable and reasonably estimable at this time.

Franklin v. Anydata, Inc.

We entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Anydata Corp. (“Anydata”) for the product ACT233F Smart Link OBD device on May 5, 2017, for a minimum purchase commitment of 250,000 units. We delivered approximately 25,000 units and 7,000 units during our second and fourth quarters of fiscal 2018, respectively, and an additional 18,000 units during our first quarter of fiscal 2019. Sales to Anydata were approximately $1.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2019. We received information that Anydata may not be able to fulfill the entire purchase commitment for which parts have already been ordered with our main vendor, Quanta. We believe that the Company will be able to supply some of the products to another customer and we received personal guarantees from the ownership group of Anydata. As of June 30, 2019, the remaining unfulfilled purchase commitment was approximately $3.1 million. The total product purchase commitment with Quanta was approximately $2.9 million. We have not recorded a receivable from Anydata, nor a liability owed to Quanta. Management believes that, at this time, a loss contingency is reasonably possible but not estimable as to how much ultimately would be paid to Quanta. As of June 30, 2020, we paid $100,000 for the right to call on inventory and recorded an additional $49,580 as a prepaid expense related to pricing adjustments, which has been agreed with Quanta for other products to ensure demand is met, and for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the prepaid expense of $149,580 has been recorded as a cost of goods sold. As of June 30, 2023, there is a reasonable possibility we may incur a loss; however, the amount is not estimable at this time. On January 25, 2021, we commenced legal action against Anydata and its principal officers in San Diego Superior Court, case number 37-2021-00003468-CU-BC-CTL. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, a confidential settlement has been reached between the parties for an immaterial amount and as of the date of this report, the action is expected to be dismissed within the next 30 days.

Shareholder Litigation

Ali

A shareholder action, Ali vs. Franklin Wireless Corp. et al. Case #3:21-cv-00687-AJB-MSB, was filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of California (San Diego) on April 16, 2021, alleging, among other things, that we had prior knowledge that the Verizon recall was likely and that we did not disclose that information to investors in a timely manner. The Class and Defendants have executed a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement under which the Class releases all claims against Defendants in exchange for a payment by Defendants of $2.4 million (the “Settlement Amount”), which is reflected in liabilities under “accrued legal contingency expense” with a corresponding charge to “loss from a legal contingency”. The Class has submitted a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement, which the Court has not yet ruled on. If and when the Court grants preliminary approval of the Settlement, Defendants will be required to deposit the Settlement Amount into an escrow account established to administer the Settlement.

Harwood / Martin

A legal action was filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of California (San Diego) against Franklin, as a nominal defendant, by Stephen Harwood, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Franklin Wireless Corp. v. O.C. Kim, et al., Case #21cv01837-AJB-MSB, on or about October 29, 2021, claiming among other things, that we had prior knowledge that the recall was likely and that we did not disclose that information to investors in a timely manner.

The Harwood and Martin actions have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of California (San Diego) titled “In re Franklin Wireless Corp. Derivative Litigation”, Case No.: 21cv1837-AJB (MSB). Discovery is ongoing at this time.

Pape

A legal action was filed in the Second Judicial District Court of Nevada in the County of Washoe against Franklin, as a nominal defendant, Barbara Pape, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Franklin Wireless Corp. v. O.C. Kim, et al., Case # CV22-00471, on or about March 21, 2022, claiming among other things, that we had prior knowledge that the recall was likely and that we did not disclose that information to investors in a timely manner. We believe these allegations are not supported by the facts and we will vigorously defend against such claims.

The Company will vigorously defend such shareholder litigation and proceedings. No liability has been recorded for these litigations because the Company believes that any such liability is not probable and reasonably estimable at this time.

“Short-Swing” Profits Litigation

A legal action was filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of California (San Diego) against Franklin, as a nominal defendant, Nosirrah Management LLC v. Franklin Wireless et al., Case # 3:21-cv-01316-RSH-JLB, on or about July 22, 2021, claiming that our Chief Executive Officer, O.C. Kim, violated Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for receiving “short-swing” profits from a sale and purchase of Franklin shares, in violation of that Act. We believe the allegations are not supported by the facts and we intend to vigorously defend against these claims. No liability has been recorded for this litigation because the Company believes that any such liability is not probable and reasonably estimable at this time.

F-23

Change of Control Agreements

On October 1, 2020, we entered into Change of Control Agreements with OC Kim, our President, and Yun J. (David) Lee, our Chief Operating Officer. Each Change of Control Agreement provides for a lump sum payment to the officer in case we experience a change of control. The term includes the acquisition of our Common Stock resulting in one person or company owning more than 50% of the outstanding shares, a significant change in the composition of the Board of Directors during any 12-month period, a reorganization, merger, consolidation or similar transaction resulting in the transfer of ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of our outstanding Common Stock, or a liquidation or dissolution or sale of substantially all of our assets.

The Change of Control Agreement with Mr. Kim calls for a payment of $5 million upon a change of control, and the agreement with Mr. Lee calls for a payment of $2 million upon a change of control. The Change in Control Agreements, dated October 1, 2020, have been extended through September 30, 2024.

Severance Agreement

On November 10, 2022 the Company and OC Kim, its President, entered into an amendment of the employment letter agreement dated September 7, 2021. The amendment provides for a severance payment of $3 million if Mr. Kim voluntarily terminates his employment by the Company or if he voluntarily terminates his employment due to a “change in circumstances,” generally defined as a material breach by the Company of its salary and benefit obligations or a significant reduction in Mr. Kim’s title or responsibilities. In the case of a termination of employment by the Company for cause (generally defined as conviction of a felony, or a misdemeanor where imprisonment is imposed, commission of any act of theft, fraud, dishonesty, or material falsification of any employment or Company records, or improper disclosure of the Company's confidential or proprietary information), the Company is to make a severance payment of $1,500,000. In either case, any unvested options become immediately vested.

In addition, the amendment provides for the payment of an incentive bonus to Mr. Kim of $125,000 for each calendar quarter during the remaining four year term of the employment letter, with the first such bonus due on December 31, 2022.

Loan Agreement with Subsidiary

On March 21, 2022, Franklin Wireless Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Loan Agreement with Franklin Technology Incorporation, a Republic of Korea corporation (“FTI”), under which the Company agreed to loan US$10,000,000 to FTI. The Company owns a majority of the outstanding equity of FTI. FTI’s primary business is providing design and development services to the Company for our wireless products. As part of the loan transaction, FTI delivered a $10 million Promissory Note to the Company (the “Note”).

The purpose of the loan is to allow FTI to purchase a facility in South Korea to house its operations, and to provide it with additional working capital. The purchase of such a facility with the loan proceeds is subject to the Company’s reasonable approval. Upon acquisition of the facility, FTI is required to grant the Company a mortgage on it to secure payment of the Note.

The Note is for a term of five years, provides for annual payments of interest at 2% per annum, and is due and payable upon maturity. The Note and Loan Agreement include customary provisions for default and acceleration upon default, and a default interest rate of 7% per annum.

F-24

International Tariffs

We believe that our products are currently exempt from international tariffs upon import from our manufacturers to the United States. If this were to change at any point, a tariff of 10%-25% of the purchase price would be imposed. If such tariffs are imposed, they could have a materially adverse effect on sales and operating results.

Customer Indemnification

NOTE 9 - LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS

We apply the provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” to all of our stock-based compensation awards, and use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options. Under this application, we record compensation expense for all awards granted. Compensation costs will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award, i.e. the vesting period.

In 2009, we adopted the Stock Incentive Plan (“2009 Plan”), which provided for the grant of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to our employees and directors. Options granted under the 2009 Plan generally have a term of ten years and generally vest and become exercisable at the rate of 33% after one year and 33% on the second and third anniversaries of the option grant dates. Historically, some stock option grants have included shorter vesting periods ranging from one to two years.

In July of 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the 2020 Franklin Wireless Corp. Stock Option Plan, which covers 800,000 shares of Common Stock. The Plan provide for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock to our employees, directors, and independent contractors. These options will have such vesting or other provisions as may be established by the Board of Directors at the time of each grant.

The estimated forfeiture rate considers historical turnover rates stratified into employee pools in comparison with an overall employee turnover rate, as well as expectations about the future. We periodically revise the estimated forfeiture rate in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. There were $710,870 and $545,841 compensation expenses recorded under this method for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Performance Obligations

Our performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from products transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for over 99% of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. Revenue for non-recurring engineering projects is based on the percentage completion of a project and accounted for under 1% of net sales for the year ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. Most of our revenue that is recognized at a point in time is for the sale of hot-spot router products. Revenue from these contracts is recognized when the customer can direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product, which generally coincides with title transfer at completion of the shipping process.

As of June 30, 2023, and 2022, our contracts do not contain any unsatisfied performance obligations, except for undelivered products.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of the assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted 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. We have evaluated the available evidence supporting the realization of our gross deferred tax assets, including the amount and timing of forecasted future taxable income. Management determined it is more likely than not that the federal deferred tax assets will be fully realized, and no valuation allowance is necessary as of June 30, 2023, or 2022.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of unrecognized tax benefits, which have been considered in the Company's computation of its deferred tax assets, is as follows:

Schedule of unrecognized tax benefits
Balance as of June 30, 2021	$	335,259

Leases

Our Korea-based subsidiary, FTI, leases approximately 10,000 square feet of office space, at a monthly rent of approximately $8,000, and additional office space consisting of approximately 2,682 square feet at a monthly rent of approximately $2,700, both located in Seoul, Korea. These leases expired on August 31, 2023, and were extended by an additional twelve months to August 31, 2024. In addition to monthly rent, the leases provide for periodic cost of living increases in the base rent and payment for certain common area costs. These facilities are covered by an appropriate level of insurance, and we believe them to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs. We lease one corporate housing facility, located in Seoul, Korea, primarily for our employees who travel, under a non-cancelable operating lease that expired on September 4, 2023, and were extended by an additional twelve months to September 4, 2024. Short-term leases with initial terms of twelve months or less are not capitalized, and our leases of the South Korean offices and corporate housing facility have been considered as short-term lease.

The components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 are as follows:

Schedule of components of lease expense
