On September 22, 2022, the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued an Order Instituting Proceedings (OIP) pursuant to Section 12(j) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), against the Company alleging violations of the 1934 Act, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, by failing to timely file periodic reports. Section 12(j) authorizes the SEC as it deems necessary or appropriate for the protection of investors to suspend for a period not exceeding 12 months, or to revoke, the registration of a security if the SEC finds, on the record after notice and opportunity for hearing, that the issuer of such security has failed to comply with any provision of the 1934 Act, as amended, or the rules promulgated thereunder. The Company has filed an answer to the Order Instituting Proceedings and is seeking a hearing in the matter. The Company is currently fully compliant with all of its filings and has recently filed a form F1 which is pending acceptance by the SEC. The Company anticipates that it will be able to waive this OIP after acceptance.

On December 8, 2025, ABCO, entered into an agreement with Blackwell & Associates, (“Blackwell ”) for the construction of the Grandview Phase II project located at 1425 Grandview Avenue, Paulsboro, New Jersey. Under the agreement, payment is structured on a cost-plus-a-fee basis without a guaranteed maximum price. The total estimated cost of the project is approximately $1,430,000 which includes the cost of the work plus Blackwell’s fee. Blackwell’s fee is comprised of 6% overhead and 9% profit applied to the cost of the work as defined in the agreement. Because the agreement does not include a guaranteed maximum price, the final cost of the work may differ from this estimate, and the Company’s ultimate obligation under the contract could be higher or lower than the estimated amount depending on actual costs incurred. Work is required to commence no later than 10 days from the date of the agreement, with substantial completion targeted by April 15, 2026, subject to adjustments for changes in the contract documents. The work may be approved and executed in phases at the Company’s discretion, with Company approval required in writing for each phase. Either party may terminate the contract for cause or convenience; however, no termination fee is payable to Blackwell in the event the Company terminates for convenience. Blackwell is considered a related party as it is controlled by the spouse of the majority owner of ABCO Holdings.
