These are indicators of substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates and judgments involve valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of equity-classified stock purchase warrants, valuation of liability-classified stock purchase warrants, valuation of derivative liability, classification of gains and losses on settlement of related party liabilities, the useful lives of long-lived assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets, and valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify"><b><i>Segment reporting: </i></b>ASC 280, <i>Segment Reporting </i>(“ASC 280”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

Under ASC 205-20, “<i>Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations</i>” (“ASC 205-20”), a discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results, or a newly acquired business or nonprofit activity that upon acquisition is classified as held for sale. Discontinued operations are presented separately from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of Operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows (see Note 4). For long-lived assets or disposals groups that are classified as held for sale but do not meet the criteria for discontinued operations, the assets and liabilities are presented separately on the balance sheet of the initial period in which it is classified as held for sale.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify"><b><i>Advertising: </i></b>Costs related to advertising are expensed as incurred.

The Company measures employee, director and nonemployee awards at the date of grant, which generally is the date at which the Company and the nonemployee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of a share-based payment award.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify">The Company estimates the grant date fair value of each stock option award using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The model requires management to make a number of assumptions, including the fair value and expected volatility of the Company’s underlying common stock price on the date of grant, expected live of the option, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend yield. The Company sets the grant date fair value of each stock grant equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify">The Company uses the straight-line attribution method to allocate compensation cost to reporting periods over the requisite service period during which the employee, board member, director, or advisor is required to provide services in exchange for the award. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur, with previously recognized compensation reversed in the period that the awards are forfeited.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify"><b><i>Income taxes: </i></b>The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is established when management estimates that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future pre-tax earnings, the reversal of temporary differences between book and tax income, and the expected rates in future periods.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify">The Company is required to evaluate the tax positions taken in the course of preparing its tax returns to determine whether tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The amount recognized is subject to estimate and management judgment with respect to the likely outcome of each uncertain tax position. The amount that is ultimately sustained for an individual uncertain tax position or for all uncertain tax positions in the aggregate could differ from the amount that is initially recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in general and administrative expense.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify">For U.S. federal tax purposes, digital asset transactions are treated on the same tax principles as property transactions. The Company recognizes a gain or loss when digital assets are exchanged for other property, in the amount of the difference between the fair market value of the property received and the tax basis of the exchanged digital assets. Receipts of digital assets in exchange for goods or services are included in taxable income at the fair market value on the date of receipt.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify"><b><i>Foreign currency translation: </i></b>The Company’s consolidated financial statements are presented in the reporting currency of the U.S. dollar.

Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated into the reporting currency using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Equity transactions are translated using the historical exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction, except for the change in accumulated deficit during the year, which is the results of the operations translation process. Results of operations and cash flows are translated using the weighted average exchange rates in effect during the period. As a result, amounts relating to the assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into the reporting currency are recorded as a component of comprehensive income (loss). The realized foreign currency exchange gain (loss) and the unrealized foreign currency exchange gain (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 is included as a component of net loss from discontinued operations on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify">Remeasurement gains and losses from transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency are recorded as a component of other income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The determination was primarily based on Old Nukk’s shareholders prior to the Business Combination having a majority of the voting interests in the combined company, Old Nukk’s ability to exert control over the majority of the board of directors of the combined company, and given the board of directors election and retention provisions, Old Nukk’s ability to maintain control of the board of directors on a go-forward basis, Old Nukk’s senior management comprising the senior management of the combined company; and old Nukk’s operations prior to the Business Combination comprise the ongoing operations of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Old Nukk issuing stock for the net assets of Brilliant, accompanied by a recapitalization.

The losses on extinguishment of obligations are to be recognized as capital reductions as the Company is in an accumulated deficit position, and the losses should be treated as a return of capital given the role of a company’s shareholder.   The correction of the treatment of losses on extinguishment of obligations owed to affiliates did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position for the three months ended December 31, 2023.</p> 1000 1255 0.51 40000000 150000000 0.0001 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><b>NOTE 2 – <span style="text-transform: uppercase"><span style="text-decoration:underline">Liquidity and capital resources</span></span></b></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations and cash flow used in operating activities from continuing operations of approximately $7,378,000 and $893,000, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 2024. These are indicators of substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates and judgments involve valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of equity-classified stock purchase warrants, valuation of liability-classified stock purchase warrants, valuation of derivative liability, classification of gains and losses on settlement of related party liabilities, the useful lives of long-lived assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets, and valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><b><i>Segment reporting: </i></b>ASC 280, <i>Segment Reporting </i>(“ASC 280”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The CODM uses operating results as the primary measure to manage the business.

Accordingly, the Company has recast the presentation of its reportable segments for the periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

Equity transactions are translated using the historical exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction, except for the change in accumulated deficit during the year, which is the results of the operations translation process. Results of operations and cash flows are translated using the weighted average exchange rates in effect during the period. As a result, amounts relating to the assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into the reporting currency are recorded as a component of comprehensive income (loss). The realized foreign currency exchange gain (loss) and the unrealized foreign currency exchange gain (loss) for the three months ended December 3, 2024 and the years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is included as a component of net loss from discontinued operations on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Remeasurement gains and losses from transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency are recorded as a component of other income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Based on the existence of one or more indicators of impairment, the Company measures any impairment of long-lived assets using the projected discounted cash flow method at the asset group level. The estimation of future cash flows requires significant management judgment based on the Company’s historical results and anticipated results and is subject to many factors. The discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s business model is determined by its management. An impairment loss would be recorded if the Company determined that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Company may elect to redeem the Public Warrants, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant if (i) 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption is provided to the holders, and (ii) the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. Upon issuance of a redemption notice by the Company, the warrant holders have a period of 30 days to exercise for cash, or on a cashless basis.

The valuation allowance could be reduced or eliminated based on future earnings and future estimates of taxable income. At each reporting date, management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, only the portion of the deferred tax asset that is more likely than not to be realized was recognized. However, if the Company is not able to generate sufficient taxable income from its operations in the future, then a valuation allowance to reduce the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets may be required, which would increase the Company’s expenses in the period the allowance is recognized.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $27,822,126 in U.S. federal net operating loss carry-forwards that can be utilized in future periods to reduce taxable income.

The Company has not performed a study to determine if the loss carryforwards are subject to these Section 382 limitations. $258,405 of the net operating loss carry-forwards will expire in fiscal years 2033 through 2038. The remaining net operating loss carry-forwards do not expire. In addition, the Company has net operating losses in Malta and United Kingdom totaling $447,770 and $2,010,293, respectively, with no expiration date.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not identify any uncertain tax positions that would require either recognition or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
