The proposed tender offer remains subject to regulatory review and approval and has not yet been finalized or consummated.

Overview of our Business

Cavitation Technologies, Inc. (referred to herein, unless otherwise indicated, as "the Company," "CTi," "we," "us," and "our") is a Nevada corporation originally incorporated under the name BioEnergy, Inc. We are a process and product development firm that has developed, patented, and commercialized environmentally friendly technology-based systems that are designed to serve large, growing, global markets such as renewable fuels, water treatment, wines and spirits enhancement, algae oil extraction, water-oil emulsions and crude oil yield improvement. Our systems are designed to process industrial liquids at a reduced processing time, lower operating cost, improved yield while operating in an environmentally friendly manner. Our patented Nano Reactor® and LPN™ were the critical components of our business and we have generated all of our previous revenue while utilizing these components.

Vegetable Oil Refining

Our first commercial application for our technology has been the CTi Nano Neutralization® System which has been utilized to improve the edible vegetable oil refining process. Our environmentally friendly process has been shown to reduce refining costs, increase oil yield, and limit the number of chemical additives used in chemical refining of vegetable oils. This patented process (US Patent # 7,762,715 and # 8,042,989) is designed to be incorporated into new and existing soybean, rapeseed, canola and palm vegetable oil refineries.

Desmet Belgium Group (previously Desmet Ballestra) Agreement

Desmet, together with its affiliates, is a global engineering and equipment supply firm engaged in the development, design and supply of process equipment for oils and fats processing facilities including vegetable oil refining, biofuel, oleo chemical, seed crushing, surfactant and detergent markets. Desmet supplies these markets with services based on the latest globally sourced technologies. Desmet has relationships with major refiners globally. A significant portion of global vegetable oil refineries include major refiners such as Archer Daniels Midland Company, Cargill, Inc. and Bunge Limited. Desmet has more than 40 sales representatives selling in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. Since its founding in 1946, Desmet reports that it has built a global network that includes 1,300 employees, 17 global and 8 representative offices, and more than 6,000 lines in a variety of applications. Desmet operates a separate division for each of the above markets and the Desmet Oils & Fats division has supplied small and large plants to approximately 1,900 oil millers in 150 countries, covering over 6,300 process sections.

On May 14, 2012, we signed a global R&D, Marketing and Technology License Agreement with Desmet Ballestra Group s.a. (Desmet), a Belgian company that is actively marketing the NANO Neutralization® System, the key component of which is our Nano Reactor® to soybean and other vegetable oil refiners. The Agreement provided Desmet (licensee) a limited, exclusive license and right to develop, design and supply our NANO Neutralization® System which incorporates Nano Reactor® devices on a global basis for vegetable oils and fats and oleo chemical applications. The agreement expired in May 2015.

On January 22, 2016, Desmet and the Company executed a new three-year License Agreement on essentially the same terms with the May 2012 agreement that was effective August 1, 2015. As part of the agreement, Desmet provided, under certain conditions, limited monthly advance payments of $50,000 to be applied against gross profit share from future sales. The agreement expired in August 2018.

On October 1, 2018, Desmet and the Company executed a new three-year License Agreement on essentially the same terms with the January 2016 agreement. As part of the agreement, Desmet provided us, under certain conditions, limited monthly advances of $50,000 through October 1, 2021, to be applied against gross profit share from future sales. The agreement expired in October 2021.

On October 1, 2021, Desmet and the Company executed a new three-year License Agreement on essentially the same terms with the October 2018 agreement. As part of the agreement, Desmet provided the Company monthly advances of $40,000 through November 1, 2024, that was applied as payment from reactor sales, however, the Company was no longer entitled to gross profit share from future sales. This agreement was terminated and replaced in February 2024.

On February 15, 2024, Desmet and the Company terminated the October 2021 agreement and executed a new but similar three-year agreement ("February 2024 agreement"). As part of the February 2024 agreement, Desmet will provide the Company monthly advances of $25,000 through February 2027, subject to limitations, that will be applied as payment from future reactor sales. In addition, Desmet also waived reimbursement right for the outstanding advances made pursuant to the October 2021 agreement in the aggregate and up to $498,000.

In October 2024, we entered into a Patent Assignment and License Back Agreement with Desmet to assign certain patents, intellectual property rights and trademarks related to vegetable oil refining to Desmet. As consideration for the patent assignments, Desmet paid the Company $880,000 in cash. This transaction provided capital for continuous operations and business development of our company. This agreement effectively superseded the February 2024 agreement with Desmet including the termination of the monthly advances of $25,000.

Key points of the October 2024 Agreement included:

	·	Reserved License: we retained a worldwide, exclusive, transferable, and royalty-free license to practice and use the Assigned Patents in the fields of water and wastewater processing, recovery, recycling, and purification (including oilfield wastewater), as well as the manufacture, distillation, brewing, enhancement, sale, and marketing of alcoholic beverages (the "Licensed Fields").
	·	Grant-Back License: we received a worldwide, exclusive, transferable, and royalty-free license to practice and use the Assigned Patents and associated technical information, consistent with the scope of the Reserved License.
	·	Trademark Usage: we retained exclusive rights to use the "Nano Reactor®" mark for our businesses, systems, and products related to the Licensed Fields.

Under both the Reserved License and the Grant-Back License, the Company will have a worldwide, exclusive, transferable, and royalty-free license and right to design, build, use, export, improve, sell, and market Nano Reactor® devices, as well as Nano Reactor® systems and products that incorporate or utilize Nano Reactor® devices, limited to uses and applications within one or more of the Licensed Fields.

As a result of this agreement, the Company expects that Desmet will start to manufacture the Nano Reactors by itself and sale of Nano Reactors to Desmet by the Company will significantly be reduced in future periods. We will continue to own and operate a large portfolio of patents and intellectual property rights in applications not related to vegetable oil refining. The following are Management's plans going forward to generate revenues and sustain the operations of the Company and its current status:

	1.	Water Treatment and Remediation in the Permian Basin
	2.	Water Remediation and Disinfection in Agriculture
	3.	Business Venture with Alchemy Beverages, Inc.
	4.	New Technologies: Hydro-Plasma
	5.	Non-thermal plasma (Xyra Corp.)

1. Water Treatment and Remediation in the Permian Basin

Enviro WaterTek, LLC

In April 2019, the Company and Delaware Water Company, LLC (Delaware) formed a limited liability company called Enviro WaterTek LLC ("Enviro", "EW"). Enviro is owned 50% by the Company and 50% by Delaware, and the Company accounts for its investment in Enviro under the equity method of accounting. From 2019 to 2024, Enviro had insignificant operations. This agreement covers our first commercial entrance into industrial treatment of produced and frac water. The fracking industry has seen significant growth over the past ten years, reaching daily water consumption volume of over 58 million barrels per day. Our newly designed Low Pressure Nano Reactor (LPN™) was specifically developed to be integrated into produced water treatment system along with our proprietary chemical formulations and has depicted measurable and quantifiable advantages over industry standard processes and equipment. Our agreement with EW provides for sales on LPN™ plus recurring revenue stream based on processing of produced and frac water volumes and utilization. Our agreement with EW has a fifteen-year term.

In March 2020, the global pandemic of COVID-19 had a negative impact on the oil and gas industry worldwide and has consequently impaired our ability to rapidly accelerate LPN™ sales and recurring revenue stream. Our current operations are limited to system trials and have not produced any meaningful revenue. The system has the capacity to treat approximately 17,000 barrels of produced water per day (BPD).

In June 2023, the Company determined that investment in EW was impaired, and as a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1.1 million. There were no transactions during fiscal 2026 and 2025, from sale of reactors and usage fee.

Currently, we have installed our system at a major water remediation company in Texas, where it has been in place for over six months, with more testing required. We continue to pursue additional customers, primarily in the Permian Basin.

What differentiates us in the industry:

	·	No chemical usage in water remediation, significantly reducing operational costs.
	·	Integration into existing processes within 24 hours, without disrupting ongoing operations.
	·	Compact systems with minimal energy consumption.
	·	Post-treatment water can be either reused or safely disposed of.

2. Water Remediation and Disinfection in Agriculture

In 2024, we installed our first system at Hacienda Farms (B&F Greenhouse Services, Inc.) in Canada. The system is currently undergoing trials to increase oxygen levels in the water, eliminate algae, and control bacterial growth, all without the use of harsh chemicals. This innovative technology is designed to improve water quality and promote healthier crop growth.

Hacienda Farms relies heavily on water from Lake Erie, which poses significant water remediation challenges due to issues like algae and bacterial contamination. Additionally, Hacienda Farms has been dealing with high sodium levels in the water, which affect calcium absorption in plants, and fungal issues that harm root health, ultimately reducing crop yields. These water quality challenges necessitate advanced remediation solutions to ensure the sustainability and productivity of their greenhouse operations. Our technology addresses these problems by controlling microorganisms, accelerating vegetative and root growth, and increasing overall plant biomass. This not only improves crop production but also supports sustainable farming practices.

The overall market for water treatment in Canada is valued at approximately $2.51 billion, with continuous expansion due to the demand for sustainable solutions in agriculture and industrial applications.

3. Business Venture with Alchemy Beverages, Inc.

In fiscal 2014, Roman Gordon, one of our shareholders and a former officer, formed a company, Cameo USA LLC (Cameo). Since its formation, Cameo has had no revenue, no operations, and has had no assets or liabilities. On June 4, 2018, Mr. Gordon contributed his 100% interest in Cameo to Cavitation Technologies, Inc. As Mr. Gordon had no reasonable and objectively supportable basis in the valuation of his investment in Cameo, there was no value assigned to the contribution of Cameo.

On June 29, 2018, we sold Cameo to Alchemy Beverages Inc. ("ABI"). In addition, we have agreed to provide certain licensing rights related to our miniature low pressure nano-reactor (MLPN) to be used in developing and manufacturing of small home appliances to enhance alcoholic beverages. In consideration for this, ABI has agreed to issue 19.9% of ABI's outstanding common shares to us (limited to 20 million shares of ABI). ABI is a private company and in the business of producing and selling alcoholic beverages, equipment, and home appliances. Prior to this agreement, ABI was independent of CTI and had no relation to us nor to our management.

Pursuant to the licensing agreements, ABI will have the exclusive global marketing and distribution rights of Cameo and our patented and patent pending technologies for the processing of alcoholic beverages. We have agreed to assist in the installation and maintenance of the MLPN to ABI and will receive royalty payments ranging from 1% to 3% on all net revenues, as defined in our license agreement for the life of the applicable patents. In addition, we will receive leasing, consulting, and manufacturing fees as defined in the licensing agreement.

Over the past several years, we have worked closely with ABI to develop the smart home kitchen appliance Barmuze and alcoholic beverages. Significant work has been done on Barmuze branding, including launching a new website and creating animations throughout the year to showcase how the appliance works. ABI is actively pursuing the commercial production of Barmuze, licensing the technology to third parties, and considering the opportunity to develop its own alcohol brands, leveraging our cutting-edge technology to transform any alcohol into a smooth, top-shelf experience.

ABI is in the process of completing its financial audit, which is estimated to be completed in fiscal 2027, engaging focus groups for Barmuze acceptance, refining marketing and distribution strategies, and securing additional capital for production. The Company also plans on obtaining additional financing in fiscal 2027.

As of September 30, 2026 and the date of this report, ABI has not generated any sales under the Cameo brand. The earliest sales and revenue for Barmuze are anticipated in the first half of 2027. Also, ABI is working on creating its own line of alcoholic beverages and licensing of the technology to other brands. For more information, www.alchemybeveragesinc.com and www.barmuze.com.

During fiscal 2026 and 2025, there were no sales or royalties generated pertaining to our agreement with Alchemy Beverages, Inc. The investment in ABI has no value assigned to it, which approximates its fair value.

4. New Technologies: Hydro-Plasma

Along with improving our existing technologies, we have developed Hydro Plasma, an innovative process combining cavitation and cold plasma technology to enhance our water treatment efficiency, which:

	·	Breaks down both organic and inorganic compounds.
	·	Is highly scalable - from 15 to 40 GPM.
	·	Eliminates microorganisms and diseases.
	·	Has multiple industrial applications.
	·	The technology is patent pending.

This cutting-edge technology creates reactive agents, such as hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen peroxide, that break down pollutants, bacteria, and viruses in water more effectively than traditional methods. It's an environmentally friendly and scalable solution, with applications in water treatment, agriculture, sulfur removal from bunker fuel, and more.

The global cold plasma market is projected to grow from $1.5 billion in 2021 to $3.1 billion by 2027, fueled by increasing demand for sustainable water solutions. Our technology has the potential to revolutionize water treatment on a global scale. To accelerate this development, we have established partnerships with New Mexico State University, the University of Guadalajara, and the Brackish Groundwater National Desalination Research Facility (BGNDRF), NM, to collaborate on water remediation programs.

In order to develop these markets, we may need additional funding and may attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and additional working capital. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such financing or obtain sufficient amounts necessary to meet our business needs, or that we will be able to meet our future contractual obligations.

Testing of the technology is currently underway. Upon completion of multiple trials, if successful, sales and revenue are anticipated in the first half of fiscal 2027.

5. Xyra Corp: Non-Thermal Plasma

In August 2025, we incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Xyra Corp., and licensed our technology to Xyra Corp., our wholly owned subsidiary. Xyra is focused on identifying and capitalizing on opportunities in the crypto technologies market. Xyra holds an exclusive license for Cavitation Technologies Inc.'s patented Cavitation Non-Thermal Plasma™ (CNTP) systems, developed initially for immersion cooling in crypto mining and high-density data centers. This technology solves critical pain points such as fluid degradation, contamination, and system downtime in next-generation computing environments. That same technology now underpins Xyra's infrastructure backbone, giving it a rare dual strength: precision fluid management to keep the physical computing layer efficient and secure, and to deliver AI-driven, quantum-secure remittances and tokenization rails at a global scale.

Xyra launched the first AI-driven, quantum-secure remittance and tokenization network designed for the global economy. The platform addresses the inefficiencies of today's outdated cross-border systems, tapping into multi-trillion-dollar markets while introducing the first credit card issuance linked directly to remittance flows.

Quantum-Secure Technology

At the core of Xyra's vision is a unified ecosystem built on interconnected pillars:

§	AI Intelligence Layer
	Serves as the "brain," monitoring remittance flows, detecting anomalies, automating Know Your Customer ("KYC") and Anti- Money Laundering ("AML") and transforming raw transactions into insights.
§	Quantum Security Layer
	Uses post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and decentralized infrastructure to protect every transaction, ensuring resilience against future quantum attacks.
	Stablecoin Network & Licensed Compliance
	Xyra is building its own regulated infrastructure, obtaining and operating under Money Transmitter Licenses (MTLs) across multiple jurisdictions. At the core of this framework is the issuance of fully asset-backed, quantum-secure stablecoins, creating instant, compliant fiat-to-stablecoin rails for remittances, cross-border B2B, and tokenized settlements.
§	Rewards & Loyalty Engine
	Every remittance becomes an engagement point, with AI delivering real-time rewards, loyalty features, and personalized incentives to boost retention. AI also optimizes margins and creates new revenue streams, turning loyalty into a direct driver of income for the ecosystem.
§	Asset Tokenization Layer
	Converts verified remittance and financial data into programmable, globally tradable tokens, turning information flows into yield-bearing digital assets.

Inflation

Global inflation remains a factor in fiscal 2027 and 2026, with interest rates in the US remaining at higher levels and increasing. The current uncertainty in the global markets around the implementation of trade tariffs by the US government has resulted in market fluctuations. In addition, the impact of tariffs on all imported goods into the U.S. is expected to have a significant inflationary impact on all imports. The Iranian, Russia and Ukraine and other geopolitical conflicts, as well as related international response, have exacerbated inflationary pressures, including causing increases in the price for goods and services and global supply chain disruptions, which have resulted and may continue to result in shortages in food products, materials and services. Such shortages have resulted and may continue to result in inflationary cost increases for labor, fuel, food products, materials and services, and could continue to cause costs to increase as well as result in the scarcity of certain materials. We cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation or other negative economic factors or associated increases in our operating costs and how that may impact our business. To the extent we and our customers we service are unable to recover higher operating costs resulting from inflation or otherwise mitigate the impact of such costs on our and their business, our revenues and gross profit could decrease, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025

The following is a comparison of our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Revenue

The Company generates revenues from the sale of the Nano Reactor® to customers/distributor. Additionally, the Company generates revenues from short-term rental of these Nano Reactors.

Revenue was $0 and $3,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, a decrease of $3,000 or 100.0%. Revenue for the prior year represented income received for the rental of a Nano Reactor to one customer.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $165,000 and $245,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, a decrease of $80,000 or 32.7%. The decrease is primarily due to the following:

	·	Salary expenses decreased by $57,000 due to the termination of employment by one of our employees,
	·	Travel expenses decreased by $18,000 primarily due to fewer promotional trips undertaken during the current year,
	·	Professional fees decreased by $16,000, primarily due to a decrease in legal related expenses,
	·	Consulting fees decreased by $11,000 primarily due to the decrease in consulting fees incurred in Xyra Corporation during the prior year,
	·	Rent expense decreased by $1,000 due to an increase in sub-lease income which is offset against rental expense.
	·	Stock compensation increased by $22,000 due to a share-based compensation agreement entered into with a consultant during the current year with no similar transaction in the prior period.
	·	The aggregate of all other expenses increased by $1,000; the increase in these expenses is individually insignificant.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses were $0 and $7,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, a decrease of $7,000 or 100.0%. During the prior year, the Company began another R&D project consisting of the design and manufacture of an experimental installation for plasma activation of water by generating a plasma discharge in a water stream. There were no similar expenses during the current period and the research and development expenditure is dependent on progress made on the development.

Interest and other expense, net

Interest and other expense, net was $40,000 and $9,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase is primarily related to interest incurred and debt discount amortized on bridge notes, convertible notes and related party notes advanced to the Company during the current and prior year.

Change in fair value of derivative liability

The change in fair value of derivative liability was $3,000 and $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase is primarily related to the valuation of the conversion feature on the convertible notes payable issued during the prior year accounted for as derivative liabilities and the subsequent mark-to-market of these derivative liabilities at our reporting period end.

Net loss

Net loss was $208,000 and $258,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, a decrease in loss of $50,000. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to the decrease in operating expenses, offset by a decrease in revenue, an increase in interest and other expense, net, and the movement in the fair value of derivative liabilities, as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, during the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $165,000 and used cash in operations of $128,000. In addition, we had a stockholders' deficit of $739,000 as of September 30, 2026. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company's June 30, 2026, financial statements, raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company has cash in the amount of $94,000. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to continue to implement its business plan. Currently, management's plan is to increase revenues by using its Reserved Grant Back License to apply the technology to: (i) water and wastewater processing, recovery, recycling and purification (including oilfield wastewater) and (ii) manufacture, distillation, brewing, enhancements, sale and marketing of alcoholic beverages, together the Licensed Fields. The Company will have a worldwide, exclusive, transferable and royalty-free license and right to design, build, use, export, improve, sell and market Nano Reactor® devices and systems that incorporate or utilize Nano Reactor® devices, in each case within the Licensed Fields, and to continue to use the Nano Reactor® trademark in connection with its business, systems and products within the Licensed Fields. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company believes it does not have enough cash to sustain operations through September 2027.

The Company may also attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and to provide additional working capital. There is no assurance that such financing will be available in the future or obtained in sufficient amounts necessary to meet the Company's needs, that the Company will be able to achieve profitable operations or that the Company will be able to meet its future contractual obligations. Should management fail to obtain such financing, the Company may curtail its operations.

Cash Flow

Net cash used in operating activities was $128,000 and $219,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in cash used in operating activities is primarily due to a reduction in operating expenses and the movement in working capital during the current period.

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $205,000 and $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was due to proceeds received from common stock subscriptions and bridge notes payable during the current period.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.

Revenue from sale of our Nano Reactor® and LPN™ was recognized when products were shipped from our manufacturing facilities as this was our sole performance obligation under these contracts and we had no continuing obligation to the customer.

For the license fee revenue, revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies the performance obligation based on the related license agreement.

The Company also recognizes revenues from usage fees of certain reactors. Usage fees are recognized based on actual usage by the customer.

In addition, the Company also recognizes revenues from short-term rental of Nano Reactors. Rental revenue is recognized over the term of the agreement and when collectability is certain.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Certain convertible notes have a variable priced conversion feature which qualifies as a derivative liability which is valued using a variable option pricing model using Level 3 inputs. The Company's derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting date, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in the statement of operations.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
