Revenues for the six-month period ended April 30, 2025, were $1,340,285 compared to revenues of $366,217 for the aix-month period ended April 30, 2024. The increase in revenue is attributable solely to an increase in sales of our House wrap product line.
Our costs of sale, selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $1,098,824 for the six months ended April 30, 2025, compared to $393,106 for the six-month period ended April 30, 2024. The increase is cost of sales and SG&A are directly related to the increase in sales. While costs are higher, the percentage based off income is reduced, demonstrating an increase in work efficiency.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six-month period ended April 30, 2025, we funded our operations from revenues and the sale of our common stock.
Short Term: We will continue to fund our operations from sales and the sale of our securities. We continue to pay our creditors when payments are due. We will require more funds to be able to order the material for our Insultex products and to purchase equipment needed for the manufacture of the Insultex product. The Company reached an agreement with the manufacturer of the Insultex material to purchase a machine capable of producing the Insultex material. Also included in the proposed agreement will be the propriety formula that creates Insultex. The Company took delivery of the equipment in December 2015. The Company will have to have the machine installed and ensure that it can be operated in compliance with all environmental rules and regulations. It is the Company's intention to have the equipment operational but cannot currently provide a time estimate. Among the factors affecting the time estimate are the financial resources available to the Company, finding a suitable facility and bringing technical personnel from abroad to install the equipment. The Company has currently made deposits of $652,944 on the equipment. The Company will produce Insultex under its own brand name. See Note 13 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements.
The new quality control testing equipment for our House Wrap Product line has been built. We have reached an agreement with the vendor on the final amount. As of April 30, 2025, we have paid approximately $134,000 in deposits for the equipment. We expect to accept delivery of the equipment when we are able to reach an agreement with a testing laboratory that will house the equipment. Once the equipment is installed it will have to go through a certification process before we will be able to conduct tests on our Insultex products. Once the testing equipment is certified, we intend to begin the process of having Insulted certified by ICC Evaluation Services, LLC ("ICC-ES"). ICC-ES certifies, among other items, building materials and products of which our House Wrap falls under. The reason we need to have ICC-ES certification is that we believe in order to get large orders for House Wrap, ICC-ES certification will be required. The other component part of the Housewrap produced by a third party is ICC-Es certified. Getting ICC-ES certification is costly and time consuming.
Long Term: The Company will continue to fund its operations from revenues, borrowings from private parties and the possible sale of our securities. Should we not be able to rely on the private sources for borrowing and /or increased sales, our operations would be severely affected as we would not be able to fund our purchase orders to our suppliers for finished goods and our efforts to produce our own IINSULTEX would be delayed.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Revenue Recognition: We recognize revenue from product sales when all of the following criteria for revenue recognition have been met: pervasive evidence that an agreement exists; the services have been rendered; the fee is fixed and determinable and not subject to refund or adjustment; and collection of the amount due is reasonable assured.
